    Sakura Sutter: How Being Her True Self Helped Her Heal From Pemphigus Vulgaris

    Send Mo a text about this episode! Have you ever struggled with truly being yourself? Today I am excited to introduce you all to Sakura Sutter! Sakura has one of the most compelling stories I've heard in a long time. Part of my mission with I love it when- is to support people in being themselves. Sakura's story clearly shows how she had to surrender to BEING HERSELF in order to heal from an autoimmune disease, Pemphigus Vulgaris. Tune in to this episode- you don't want to miss this! In this episode we talk about: -How her life forever changed when she almost died from Pemphigus Vulgaris. -How this sparked her healing journey- not only physically but mentally, emotionally and spiritually. -All the tools that she utilizes when working with people. -How she believes your ability to manifest is directly related to your self-worth and self-love. -What she is currently working on in her business and life! The 411 on Sakura: Sakura Sutter is a Certified Spiritual Hypnotherapist, Intuitive Medium, Master Esthetician, Author, Reiki Master, and Radio Host. In 2017, her life was forever changed when she nearly died from a rare autoimmune disorder, Pemphigus Vulgaris. That experience ignited her deep healing journey, where she embraced the mind-body-spirit connection, learned to love the parts of herself she had long suppressed, and committed to living unapologetically. Today, Sakura dedicates her life to guiding others on their own paths of self-discovery and authentic living. At her clinic, Sakura Skin & Mind in Redmond, Washington, she supports clients both in person and remotely, drawing on a wide range of modalities—intuitive mediumship, Reiki, Light Language, card readings, hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Her mission is clear: to help others heal, awaken, and step fully into their truest selves.

    Levi Stearns: Stay True To You

    Send Mo a text about this episode! Next Thursday, November 6th I'm teaching a Burnout Prevention and Recovery mini workshop in Marysville, WA. This workshop is made possible by Core Contractors (Title Sponsor) and the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce (Host). I wanted to bring Levi onto the podcast because he has an inspiring story that is very much aligned with the work I do and support. Tune in for this special episode and think of Levi the next time you're looking for a contractor. Purchase your ticket here and join us next Thursday: www.iloveitwhen.org In this episode we talk about: -Levi's journey to starting his own company, Core Contractors. -How his company stands out from other contracting companies- their values and the way they operate the company. -How important it is to be present and recognize when emotions come up- they mean something! -Why you should join us on November 6th in Marysville at the Burnout Prevention & Recovery Workshop! The 411 on Levi:  Levi Stearns is a born Entrepreneur that started out like most people following family into a working field. He became a journeyman plasterer at the age of 23 and worked as a union plasterer for 6 years. He decided to get out of construction and into sales when he became a realtor in 2006 and endured the great recession with great success as a blue-collar work ethic, and determined spirit led him to heights he didn't expect. He then ventured into insurance to broaden his sales career and found more success, yet he was not home enough and wanted to find something new. The opportunity to work in a high-volume mitigation company came along and he took it. He trained multiple top producing project managers and was the top project manager in volume for almost six years. The want for more was always there and this was the Entrepreneurial bug. He went on to lead multiple other businesses to millions in production and then started his own construction company with a fellow team member. Unfortunately, when that partnership was no longer viable, he struck out on his own to start Core Contractors LLC. The company is just a couple months short of two years and has seen tremendous growth. Levi and his wife have two children and three cats and live happily in Lake Stevens WA.  Go follow Core Contractors on Instagram and Facebook:  IG: corecontractors FB: Core Contractors LLC Website: https://corecontractorsllc.com Purchase your ticket here and join us next Thursday: www.iloveitwhen.org Link to purchase Lifewave patches from Mo: https://www.lifewave.com/pillaroflight ---------- Follow I love it when 👇🏼 https://www.iloveitwhen.org/podcast https://www.instagram.com/the_margaret_smith/ https://www.instagram.com/i_love_it_when_llc/ ✨Learn More about I Love It When: https://www.iloveitwhen.org ✨ Coach with MO: https://www.iloveitwhen.org/coaching 💫 Connect with MO:  Mo@Iloveitwhen.org Providing impactful experiences to facilitate self-discovery, motivation and growth.  #iloveitwhen #coaching #inspiration #education #manifestyourdreams

    Juliana Fajardo: Romanticize Your Life With Intuition

    Send Mo a text about this episode! I believe the Universe brings different people into my life at very specific times- and Juliana Fajardo came into my world at such a time. I met her in March 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic. We were gathering in an online space called "Stronger Together" and I was immediately drawn to her energy and her curiosity. We met in person in July of 2020- at the same time I first met my now partner, Tom Harrison. We have stayed in touch ever since and cultivated a lovely friendship. I really believe Juliana has a presence, voice and energy that needs to be heard by many. I believe she's a change agent- and I want more people to know her and learn from her. The way she talks about intuition and energy is approachable, clear and coming from a place of curiosity which is KEY. In this episode we talk about: -How Juliana defines intuition  -How she receives signs or synchronicities and follows that guidance -What she has done in the past when she's been in a "void" or a space where she didn't know what was going to happen next -How her intuition has helped her build more self confidence and self love The 411 on Juliana: Juliana Fajardo is a creative, an empath, and a practicing intuitive. She is the Senior Development Manager for Friendship Bridge, a nonprofit social enterprise creating opportunities that empower women in Guatemala to build a better life, through microfinance, education, and preventive health services. She has been in the nonprofit sector for over a decade and enjoys being a connector and a collaborator in this space. In her work as a nonprofit professional and as an artist and creator, she currently feels guided by curiosity and being in an exploratory phase. Unapologetically passionate about strawberries and easily amused, she finds joy in the simple things and loves expressing that. She is excited to be exploring her intuitions and to see where this takes her in her life and career. She holds a Master of Public Administration with a dual concentration in Nonprofit Organizations and Environmental Policy, Management, and Law from the University of Colorado Denver and a B.S. in Statistics with minors in Environmental Studies and Dance from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.
