Radically Selfish Michelle Keinan

Seher is a photographer, writer, and community facilitator- depending on who you ask, and depending on what she is feeling passionate about. To put it simply, you’ll find Seher somewhere at the intersection of art, culture, media, healing, social impact.
 
2016 was a deep personal and healing year. Experienced betrayal from a close relationship, and the energy healer she was working with encouraged her to work through not just that pain, but ancestral abuse patterns that were still showing up. So, she made an intention to make healing her full time job.
 
Listen in for how this came about and what came next for Seher. From “manifesting broke-ness” to stepping into her power as a community facilitator, Seher’s experiences make for a conversation full of wisdom.











More Radical Lessons in this episode:



— We are dynamic. There is no need to describe yourself one way, forever. It is beautiful to embrace all parts of ourselves.
 
— You don’t always know how long it will take to heal.
 
— We teach what we need to hear ourselves.
 
— Free writing is a good tool to get in flow and get in touch with your creativity by writing whatever comes to mind; automatic writing is a way to channel “downloads” or messages from your higher self or Source.
 
— There is a difference between pushing yourself and forcing yourself when it comes to putting yourself out there on social media.
 
— You can be yourself, and go slow with yourself, and still be successful by doing things your own way.

Over the years, China Brooks has been known as a professional actor, spiritual teacher, yoni egg guru, sales expert, human design practitioner, course developer, etc. And now? China helps groups and individuals craft and sell high value offerings aligned with their Great Work so that they can live a balanced spiritual and material life congruent with Source Consciousness...and being very well paid for it. How’s that for a bio?
 
In this episode, we dive deep into some incredible empowerment topics:
Proper payment for practitioners Human Design How to know when enough is enough How to listen to your body  
This conversation is truly radical. Get ready to take notes, powerhouses.







More Radical Lessons in this episode:



— There should be a value for value exchange for modern spiritual leaders. The practitioners worth their salt should be well paid- and also decide how they want to give back to keep this work accessible.
 
— Grid workers work with energetic systems, within humans, buildings, spaces, or systems. The grids themselves can be shifted so that there is a better flow of energy.
 
— Keep track of your intake- the podcasts, videos, books, people you surround yourself with.
 
— If we feel like we’re not getting something from someone, look at yourself and see if you are giving it to yourself.
 
— Be present in your body. If you think you are too good to be in this world, you are likely in another. All the answers will come when you connect with the earth.
 
— The mind is very linear. Human Design helps you make decisions without being limited by your mind and focusing on the whole body.
 
— Removing blocks within the subconscious mind can help you get what you want. It may not always happen as quickly as we want, but it’s about putting in effort and personal responsibility. Remember to play and have fun in between the work.

"I believe in teaching a man to fish instead of fishing for them." “Your attention is your currency.” “What can you change for yourself today?”

This episode is close to my heart, as a conversation with close friend and inspiration: Kirileigh Lynch. Kirileigh is an energy worker, intuitive, and yoga teacher working specifically with women, who literally lives the Eat Pray Love lifestyle. Yes, those are roosters in the background because she is in Bali. As of the recording of this podcast, Kirileigh is 51 weeks into traveling with nothing but a backpack.
 
When I met Kirileigh in Berlin years ago, she was married and teaching yoga full-time. But eventually, despite having students who looked up to her and everything seemingly “together,” she realized she was in desperate need of change. Kirileigh realized she was in a relationship that wasn’t serving her anymore, and at first was hesitant to do anything about it. Change isn’t comfortable after all. It took two Ayahuasca ceremonies and a lot of self-compassion, but she eventually gave up all her worldly possessions to travel and embrace her new calling: energy work.
 
And now? There’s no spiritual bypassing with Kirileigh’s work. She helps women connect with the inner truth that we are worth it, even if we forget. She teaches that we are all connected, and helps us connect with the contentment we can experience once that is internalized. This one is juicy.





More Radical Lessons in this episode:



— Sometimes we get messages in life that show us a better path, but as humans it can be hard to get out of our own way. When you hit rock bottom, or become sick of the pain, that can be a great catalyst into a brighter future.
 
— When you feel wounded, self-compassion and acceptance can allow you to help yourself and others.
 
— Start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can. Everyone wants to get instant results. Staying slow is an art and takes practice.
 
— We live in the real world. Not everything will look good on social media.
 
— Intuition isn’t always comfortable or convenient.
 
— Hearing is one thing, but being able to deal with something uncomfortable is another. Going slow helps in the transition.
 
— Micro-changes can invite adventure and freshness into your life, without changing everything you know.
 
— If you find yourself struggling to make a change, even if you know you need one, start by cultivating a relationship with your Self. Acknowledge and give your problems space. Connect with like-minded people.

More Radical Lessons in this episode:



— If the Universe is giving you sign after sign, listen to it.
 
— Ask yourself why you got into something in the first place. Connect with your mission, and then go with the most simple solution. Don’t overcomplicate things with technology or create more problems than actual solutions. Cut out any excess.
 
— You don’t need to be on a different level to get something done. If your goal is to help people, help them right now with the resources you have.
 
— People who are transparent about their failures have the ability to be our greatest teachers.
 
— Social media is an incredible tool for us to connect with more diverse role models.
 
— Realize that what makes you different if more powerful than coming from a place of lack. Being different doesn’t make you “less than.”

— Set goals for yourself and use real world manifestation through consistency, surrounding  yourself with challenging people, and connecting to your Why.

With so many labels in the spiritual community, how does one describe themselves in a way that fully represents our brilliance and power? By Gabriella Flores’ own account, she has been brought onto a path for a purpose that has been divinely guided and leads you on your healing path. In other words, she taps into your energy.
Growing up in Queens, Gabriella knew she was different. She would receive downloads, or messages, that no one else could hear. Her Catholic upbringing shunned her powers, and along with anything else that could be perceived to be the “devil.” Knowing that she wanted to channel her gifts into helping other people, Gabriella set out to become a psychologist or a teacher. But ultimately she knew that these labels could not make her happy.
Gabriella began her own spiritual journey and let philosophies and tools like veganism and meditation guide her forward. Today she is both a life coach and hypnotherapist- but don’t let the labels fool you. Gabriella is chock-full of wisdom and gives us the full download on this episode.


More Radical Lessons in this episode:
 
— Don’t limit your work to a label. Your power is more than a title or job description.
 
— Fasts are a good way to detach yourself from materialism and get closer to the bare structure of your existence.
 
— There are a chain of events and tools that teach us to listen to ourselves, and develop a deep internal confidence. Let those signals guide you onwards and upwards.
 
— The “stuff” we do in between achieving the next goal is real life. Be grateful for the in between.
 
— Writing is a great process to record and hold a non-judgmental space for yourself.
 
— Anxiety is energy. You can ride it out and channel that energy instead of saying, “I’m anxious, I’m anxious” and making yourself nervous.
 
— Life’s challenges are a test to see if you truly have learned a lesson.
 
— Allow yourself the space to figure things out and truly love yourself by taking the things you don’t understand and honoring them anyway.
 
— Your judgment will keep you from moving forward and making your thought process more positive. Once that is eliminated, you can be free.

“We’re not brought here just to exist, we’re brought here to live out a purpose.” "Within the struggle and the process, there are so many gifts.” “In the darkness, you are grounded.” “Surrender to your vulnerability.”

Have you ever had an idea, but told yourself it would never really work, or that you are too busy, or you felt like you couldn’t do it by yourself? Sisters-in-law Mimi Hecht and Mushky Notik had an idea and brought it to life, all while having busy, growing families and guided by their Orthodox Jewish culture and faith.
 
In fact, their culture is what inspired their growing business: Mimu Maxi. Mi and Mu’s faith promotes modest attire and as fashionable NYC women, they simply weren’t finding a lot of stylish options that fit their needs. The sisters-in-law/work wives started with designing just one maxi skirt - and before they knew it, were spearheading a Modest Fashion Movement, being featured in Refinery 29 and even Vogue. Using social media as a powerful tool for connection and community building, Mimu Maxi has inspired dialogue and created community with so many different types of women and cultures coming together around their designs. While their business is growing in leaps, they’ve never let it get in the way of their growing families or their faith. It’s all about balance.
 
This episode is a powerful example to women who are building their dream life - inclusive of family, faith AND success. When G-d is your business partner, can you really go wrong?
