Weaving Your Reality

In this solo update I'm sharing the WHY behind the longest break from podcasting I've ever taken, some of the creations that I'm currently bringing into the world, and why allowing the space for Source to move through is an invitation for miracles. Here are some of the things I share: - Our experience at the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show (and an invitation for you if you're called to Lemurian Crystals) - How I plan travel experiences to leave space for Source to guide me - I'm pregnant! How I'm approaching this pregnancy differently than the previous times - Fulfilling Eric's childhood dream of going to the NBA finals - Releasing industry standards and expectations, and approaching every podcast episode as a sacred ceremony Episode sponsor: Laird Superfood: Use my special link to save 15% at Laird Superfood at checkout.

I really enjoyed this conversation with Nathan Maingard – podcast host, transformational guide and wordsmith. This is the first interview under the updated podcast cover art, and that's intentional: the depths to which we journey in this episode takes the sacred space that is this podcast to a new level! We discuss: How a conscious social media Google search brought together Nathan and me What is was like growing up barefoot and naked in a small village in South Africa Choosing to be the healer in your lineage Overcoming the lineage of violence "Trauma travels through the lineage until someone is brave enough to feel it" Nathan's school experiences and being bullied as a hyper sensitive child Trusting that your parents did the best they could The beauty that came out of Nathan's parents' divorce Nathan's experience with family constellation therapy Overcoming addiction to hard drugs Some of the healing modalities and plant medicines Nathan has worked with, and the lessons they brought (kambo and psilocybin) Nathan's spoken word piece that went viral How Nathan is answering the call to pivot from music career How Nathan is practicing being in balance of feminine and masculine energies About Nathan Maingard: Born at home to a writer and a craftsman in a tiny cottage on the tip of Africa, Nathan Maingard was raised barefoot and naked. As a highly sensitive person formed by the sounds of wild ocean and musical poets, he was nearly crushed by the limiting boxes society pushed him into. Through his inner healing journey of finding his 'enoughness', he has grown into an empowering wordsmith, healing facilitator, and transformational guide. His gift is to support down-to-earth seekers and free people as they feel, heal, and grow.

In this episode I'm interviewed by Tom Boyd for his show Creators Are Brands. It's packed with gems! Description from Creators are Brands: In a world where everyone is telling us to speed up, we talk about intentionally slowing down to create more of what you love, how to create your own algorithm, we talk about her integrated holistic way of working with sponsors (that i encourage you to borrow), why she stopped selling courses even though they were bringing in crazy money, how to re-frame feelings of jealousy or comparison of other creators, why she's quitting being an influencer, and stay to the very end and she shares a strategy for connecting with your audience through every digital thing you make. We discuss: Rethinking content creator business Building a sustainable brand on social media Finding meaning and longevity in digital self-expression Relationships over transactions Social media as a stepping stone on the way of remembering who you are The metrics that actually matter Trusting the content you're "meant to" share over logical strategy How to reframe comparison on social media Allowing social media to be a mirror of places you are meant to grow Redefining success Seeing triggers as opportunities for growth Do you need to create a separate instagram account for your podcast?

Brittany Eastman is an adventurer and architect of inner worlds where beautiful lives, businesses and leadership emerge. Writer, multidimensional mentor and speaker, Brittany creates rich spaces and communities where mysticism, business and self inquiry collide and thrive.

We discuss: Why the key to success is becoming more you The importance of not taking entrepreneurial failure personally The moment Brittany decided to crumble her business and re-build from a totally new foundation Energetic understanding that led to building a successful mentoring business Letting go of "the myth of getting somewhere" Why you don't need to earn the right to success The social media metrics you're giving way too much attention to How Brittany has structured her online offerings outside of the "industry standards" No one can teach you the thing you were born to do Remembering your innate power Practicing discipline and refinement of what you let into your field Energetic understandings that lead to a whole new level of self-expression Not giving away your power to gurus and experts Embodying the archetype of the writer Creating from pleasure and from "here I am" instead of "this is where I've been" Brittany's journey of elevating her brand Visual brand identity as an enriching storytelling experience Related episodes: 217 Natalie Miles: Your Intuitive Power in Business and on Social Media 206 Ellie Seilern: Sacred Business and Sovereign Social Media Leadership 192 My Approach To Social Media Strategy in 2022 | Reframing "Social Media Growth" and Unleashing The Full Force Of Your Presence Connect with Brittany Eastman: https://brittanyeastman.com/ @iambrittanyeastman Connect with Ksenia: kseniabrief.com Instagram @ksenia.brief YouTube Ksenia Brief TikTok @ksenia.brief Subscribe, rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts Follow the podcast on Spotify

Are you worshiping the cult of "being a nice person?" Did wanting to be liked and approved sneak up to the top of your subconscious hierarchy of values? You're here because niceness has likely hijacked how you express yourself in the world, putting a ceiling and a floor on how freely you share the TRUTH of who you are. The truth that is the swirling life force in the field beyond logic, spreadsheets, content plans and business projections. The kind of truth that wants to pour divine frequencies through you with no self-censorship. Even if it pisses some people off. Especially if it does. If you're ready to let go of wiring that no longer serves you and hire a quantum electrician within to choose a new set of beliefs that make you SOAR, you are in the right place. In this solo episode, I invite you to step into the main character energy that you were born to play in your life.
