    What is Yogic Entrepreneurship? (And Why I’m Building My Business This Way)

    In this solo episode I dive into the concept of yogic entrepreneurship: What is it? How was this idea birthed? How does it differ from regular entrepreneurship? How does one practice it? This idea came to me a few days ago so I wanted to share it with y’all as soon as possible.  Do you see yourself in me as I wrestle with this idea? How would you feel about practicing it in your own life? How would birthing your passion project, new business, writing your book, or finally trying that thing that keeps calling you look different if you did? Please let me know if this concept speaks to you in the comments, and feel free to DM me on Instagram if you’d like to discuss further! Resources & sites mentioned in this episode: Crea Content Marketing, my first baby business. The 6-Fig Freelance Writer, my self-paced digital course for those wanting to start a freelance writing business. The Pennebaker Protocol: Scientific findings on the power of writing to heal.

    Let Your Freak Flag Fly with Blue of Shibari Mexico

    This week I sit down with my friend Blue, founder of Shibari Mexico. We talk about how her involvement in the BDSM community led to a niche interest in Shibari, and how that passion turned into a professional calling. We also dig into the importance of building community—especially around our niche interests—why references are crucial, and how building a business around our passions can lead to doing more admin work and less of what we actually love (in Blue’s case, tying). We discuss coming out as a freak, the moment you decide to go all in and commit to your new business, the privilege of exploring our sexuality, imposter syndrome, the power of seeing clients grow & learn, educating others about common misconceptions about Shibari, how to prioritize your business vs. personal life, being the best in your lane, and how the kink community is a great place to learn how to set boundaries and use your voice. Resources & sites mentioned in this episode: Blue’s website where you can find all of her events, products, and more! Learn more about what a munch is here.

    The External vs. Internal God

    Today we’re talking about God! And the difference between Eastern and Western religions! And capitalism! And patriarchy! Really non-loaded topics TBH. LOL. Join me for a quick solo episode where I do my best to put my worldview into words. Another thing I failed to mention in this episode that I’d like to add: Having God be external also means needing intermediaries in order to reach/connect with the Divine—enter priests, bishops, pastors, rabbis, etc. While—yes—there are “gurus” and spiritual leaders in the East, the way you can tell someone is a real guru (meaning they’re truly on the path trying to achieve moksha or enlightenment) is when they say, “Go inside. Do the work. Listen to yourself,” not that their way is the only way, or to look for the path outside of oneself. Resources & sites mentioned in this episode: More information on the Maha Kumbh Mela The Matrix (I probably did not need to link to this lol) Learn more about Sadhviji The study that states 47% of the time our mind is wandering (and a wandering mind is not a happy one) Learn more about tapas here Here’s my guruji’s Instagram if you want to check him out! Correction to this episode: 20 rupees is equivalent to 20 USD cents, 500 rupees is equivalent to USD $5.35

    How to Improve Your Adaptability with Daphne Leger

    On today’s episode, I talk with my friend Daphne Leger, a changeability expert, keynote speaker, and author of Future Proof (for which I was her editor!). We cover how she went from France, to the US, to India, to Canada—all during her childhood—leading to the realization that her ability to adapt to new environments was something she could teach others. We also dive into battling with self doubt and imposter syndrome, detaching from the outcome, going at your own pace, how the decision to be an entrepreneur is a values-based one, giving ourselves grace & patience, and creating boundaries for ourselves. When it comes to dealing with change, we discuss people’s initial reactions, the change equation, change therapy, chosen vs. imposed change, and what you can do to become more adaptable! Resources & sites mentioned in this episode: Future Proof, Daphne’s book that I edited! (Available in English & Spanish) My appearance on my client Maurice’s podcast, Try Life On The episode with Tasha where we talk about decision fatigue Atma Yoga & Energy Center in Mexico City Daphne’s LinkedIn and her Instagram

    Book Writing as Cultural Legacy

    Today I embark on a 30-day book writing challenge. Last year, one of my goals was to finish my book(s) of poetry. Spoiler alert: That didn’t happen. So I decided to challenge myself to 30 days of working on my book non-stop. Then I thought, what if others wanted to join me? That’s when the idea for First Pages Week was born, a book writing challenge where you write alongside me and we keep each other accountable. In this episode I also explain WTF a book doula is, how I’ve created my process after helping people write over 20 books, discuss how I work with clients (the same steps I take you through in the challenge), why I see storytelling and book writing as cultural legacy, and how to reconnect with your voice so that you don’t have to rely on AI (because who wants that to be their legacy?). I also take you through a visualization exercise to help provide clarity on the story you’re being called to tell. Resources & sites mentioned in this episode: First Pages Week: A book writing challenge that will allow the book that lives inside your head rent-free to finally see the light of day. My Instagram where you can follow along my 30-day journey. My Voice Journey episode where I dive more into how important our connection to our voice is.
