My ego says hi. So does the voice in my head, my higher self, my nervous system and a few suspiciously chatty aliens. For a long time, I stood in the middle of reality demanding answers. Reality laughed, lit a cigarette, and left me holding the blueprint. I’m Anna Chittick. I trace the patterns in identity, belief and human behaviour.

    The Word Sales Used to Make Me Clench Up

    There was a version of me whose whole body clenched at the word sales. Too spiritual for that. Doing it my way or no way. This is what changed. There were two groups of people who woke up around the same time. One learned every marketing structure going and it worked until it stopped. The other rejected all of it and trusted the message to find people, and that worked until it stopped too. Then there were the ones who kept failing at both and used the failing to look inward instead, and asked what am I believing about myself, what am I refusing to say, is this even what I want to offer. Those are the ones who are ready for the outside now. That is where I am. I still will not write copy designed to pull on somebody so they buy. I would rather say the true thing and let the right person find it, because I am my own ideal client and that is exactly how I buy. These episodes come from my archive. Years of lives, courses and conversations that were sitting on a channel doing nothing, so I am bringing them back one at a time. Some of it I would say differently now, and that is fine, it is all part of how I got here.

    Where the Ideas Actually Come From

    People ask me where the ideas come from and who I learned them from, and there is no one answer, which is the answer. You gather from everywhere, and after a while enough pieces have gone in that what comes out is a different thing. One thing I have noticed is that the piece I want from somebody is usually their earliest teaching, the raw version from before they refined it. This one lays out the ground the rest of what I say sits on. Three layers of existence and how I move between them. That there is no fact and no fiction here, only what is true for you right now. Why I keep creating in the online space in a way no strategist would recommend, and why the response to it was never the point. And the part people find uncomfortable, that the further in you go the fewer people are standing there with you. Fewer, and better. These episodes come from my archive.

    Tapping and Saying the Thing You Actually Feel

    This is the tapping I used most heavily, and the difference between it and the version most people know is what you say while you do it. Rather than flipping the thing into a positive, you say the thing you actually feel. You come home, the house is a mess, everybody is being awful, and instead of unloading on them you take yourself somewhere private and tap while saying every ugly sentence in your head. And what happens is you start somewhere small and end up somewhere much older, because the trigger is rarely the actual source. Your body will do strange things while it clears, the yawning and the burping and sometimes the nausea and the tears, and all of it is fine. I go through the points at the end so you can see where they sit rather than reading them off a page. You will feel silly the first time. Do it in the car. These episodes come from my archive. Years of lives, courses and conversations that were sitting on a channel doing nothing, so I am bringing them back one at a time.

    Grief, Desire and Creating a Life That Feels Like Mine

    Grief cracks you open and then you have to put the pieces back with no manual, and you do not come back the same shape. Some pieces stay on the floor. What is left has more room in it. That is where this one starts, with the idea that the sheer power of that emotion is a scale you can use for everything else you want to feel. The seven that follow are short and all pointing the same way. Nothing exists without a story, so build ones you actually want to live in. The difference between a need, a want and a desire, and how the same fifty dollars feels different in each. Your truest desires sitting at the bottom of the ocean under all the debris. Doing more than one thing at once when everybody keeps telling you to pick one. A simple way to look at money, skill and you, and to see that you are the channel rather than the blockage. And the last one, that the only way to create is your way. These episodes come from my archive. Years of lives, courses and conversations that were sitting on a channel doing nothing, so I am bringing them back one at a time.

    I Am Not Just a Widow

    I have always hated telling people I am a widow. The word arrives before I do and then everybody rearranges themselves around it. It is part of who I am and it is not the label I want doing the introductions. The long piece in the middle of this one is about that, about losing the half of a partnership and having to work out who you are without it, and about doing that at the same time as everything else was opening up. Grief sitting right next to healing. I was already crying, so bring it all in. Around it are four shorter ones. The way we hold a different persona on every platform and what happens when you try to bring them back together. Being told to niche down for years and never being able to do it. What to do when somebody questions your idea, which is usually the moment to own it harder. And the last one, that healing is a choice you keep making rather than a thing you finish.

    Let the Idea Create Itself

    An idea lands fully formed and then we start fluffing it. We fill in the gaps with everything we already know how to do, and the thing suffocates before it gets a chance to build itself. Ninety nine percent of an atom is space, and it is in the space that things grow. That is where this one starts. From there it goes into what it is like to believe in something when nobody around you does, and why the results you can see are the wrong thing to measure it by. There is the drawing I made of the symbol that links the three books, mind and heart and root, two infinity loops holding them together, because I have to draw a thing before I understand it. There is a short one about the freedom that came with being widowed, which is a strange sentence to say out loud and is still true. And it finishes on creativity being the one thing nobody else has in the shape you have it. These episodes come from my archive. Years of lives, courses and conversations that were sitting on a channel doing nothing, so I am bringing them back one at a time.

    When Manifesting, Healing and Coaching Still Left Me Stuck

    Six short ones that sit together. It opens where a lot of people are standing. You did the love and light, the manifesting, the healing, the books, the courses, the coaches, and you are still broke and still stuck, so what now. You try something different, and if nothing out there fits, you build your own. Then money, which I think we have backwards. We chase the thing because we want the feeling, so start at the feeling and let the money arrive as a side effect. There is one on self sabotage, which shows up right at the finish line when the thing is nearly ready and you suddenly go flat, because we are not used to succeeding. One on why I wrote the money book again from a completely different place. One on the three six nine method I use to plan without following anybody else's strategy. And a short one at the end on who you are versus what you can do, which are not the same thing at all. These episodes come from my archive.

    The Grief, Beliefs and Desire Behind the Surge Trilogy

    I recorded this on the second anniversary of my husband's passing, and I chose that date on purpose. Last year the anniversary flattened me. This year I wanted the day to carry something else as well, because without it none of what I have built since would exist. So this is the announcement of Surge, and it is also the whole road that led to it. Wanting money to fix everything. Writing a book on manifesting in twenty one days and putting it out with no name on the cover because I was hiding. Losing him a month after that. The healing, the spirituality, the dark, and then the luminescence that arrived when we scattered his ashes. The three books are money, love and body, and they run on three things. Storytelling and fantasy, because nothing exists without a story. Dropping every belief you are gripping so tightly that it has stopped serving you. And desire, the deep dark kind, the ones that make no sense next to the rest of your life. That is the one to go looking for. These episodes come from my archive. Years of lives, courses and conversations that were sitting on a channel doing nothing, so I am bringing them back one at a time. Some of it I would say differently now, and that is fine, it is all part of how I got here.
