Life is never what you expect it to be.
In this episode, we throw our format out the window and just allow ourselves to be human as we explore what we’ve been experiencing throughout this year, and reconnect after a two month hiatus.
Jillian has been focused on navigating divorce after the sudden end of an eight-year partnership, all while trying to meet her publisher’s book deadline and keeping Sage Crystals going. In the meantime, Iris opened the Enchanted Gardens retreat center in Bali this summer and accepted a senior-level position at a vet hospital.
Are there laughs? Certainly. Unexpected nuggets of wisdom as we reflect back on the last six months? Definitely. Tears? Maybe a couple. Life is never what you expect it to be, and neither is this episode.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it.
Love,
Jillian & Iris

In this episode, we dive into a common societal misconception: the notion that spiritual practitioners should offer their services for free to be truly spiritual. We challenge this belief and explore the importance of valuing one's expertise in the spiritual realm. We discuss how charging for your services can enable you to better serve others while maintaining your own well-being. Join us in this empowering conversation, where we are joined by Layla, Jillian’s close friend, an intuitive channel, and personal growth guide. Together, we unravel the layers of shame and guilt associated with this topic and offer fresh perspectives on finding balance and sustainability in your spiritual practice.
Tune in as we discuss:
Layla’s own journey of being disempowered within a spiritual entrepreneurship program, and how it led to “breaking free” of the paradigmWhy we devalue our gifts or we feel like we can’t charge the actual value of our offeringsHow money is energetic currency, and is actually integral to the exchange for both partiesWhy it’s more difficult for those raised female to charge their value than those raised maleRecognizing that both undervaluing service and aspirational instant success/wealth are both part of the old paradigm, and how to move beyond that binaryHow to decide how much to charge for your serviceSliding scale, reparations, and knowing which communities you’re aligned to serveModalities and tools that can unblock a more financially supportive energetic exchangeWhich crystals and formations can help you recognize your own worth and honor the value of your gifts
This is a juicy episode, and we’re so honored to have both Layla and all of you as part of this crystallizing conversation.

Smell is intrinsically connected to memories, but it’s so much more than chemical reactions. Join us as we talk to Certified Aromatherapy Coach LeeYen Tan Anderson, as we explore the scientific and energetic connection between plant essential oils and our olfactory system. A fascinating discussion, LeeYen explains:
How our sense of smell affects our limbic system, brain, and memoryHow plant essences affect us on a quantum and molecular levelHow smell can be a powerful tool for regulating our nervous systems during periods How synergistic energies of essential oils can open pathways to healing both physical and emotionalHow to cultivate a deeper relationship with plant spirits through essential oils and plant essences.The different methods to safely utilize oils in your daily practices, including matching them with correlating crystals!And, equally important: how NOT to use essential oils (you don’t want to miss this advice!)
We also chat about the importance of self advocacy, empowering ourselves to find the answers within instead of seeking them outside of ourselves, and how to use your intuition to guide which essences would be most supportive to you in the moment. LeeYen has such a sweet and soothing presence, and we can’t wait to share her wisdom and knowledge with all of you!
