    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit thetwelfthhouse.substack.com In an era where aesthetically curating the idea of doing something has become our collective toxic trait (I see you, productivity people with your untouched Notion pages), it's time for a lil’ reality check. A gentle call in. A firm, kind redirect as we emerge from the eclipse portal and catapult ourselves into Q2. Today’s episode of the Twelfth House+ …

Not ironically, not subversively, but in a "this literally saved my creative life" way that sometimes makes me question if I've finally sold out to Big Productivity. (I haven't! Probably!) The Magic-to-Mundane Pipeline Project planning is definitely something, but like, ✨channeling spirit ✨ it is not. There's nothing transcendent about a project plan, at least to me. Yet those moments that feel like "literally touching God"— when creativity flows through you like some cosmic dictation service — don't appear simply when I light the right candle. They happen when I've laid the groundwork by doing the deeply unsexy work of planning. I work with literal psychics and mediums — people who can, like, text the dead — and even THEY need project plans. Honestly, everyone can use a project plan. The game-changer for most people is realizing planning isn't constraining creativity but creating space for it. Join My Planning Cult (We Have Templates) I'm teaching a project planning class on March 23rd, 2025. If you're in the North Node, it's included (congrats, savvy investor!); if not, it's still affordable because I genuinely believe this stuff changes lives. Listen to the full episode to hear how I've somehow made project planning sound revolutionary rather than like the organizational equivalent of eating your vegetables. Because sometimes the most rebellious thing you can do as a creative is actually finish what you start. OK, so with that, let’s get into today’s case study — a project plan for putting together an Creative Writing MFA application that’s due at the end of March. MFA Application Project Plan

    The reason people don't see you (and how to fix it)

    This week, we’re talking about the difference between being seen and being SEEN. The uncomfortable truth? People don't notice you because you're doing most things exactly the same way as everyone else. We observe what seems to be working for others, frantically study their "method," and replicate it with the precision of someone following IKEA instructions — except we're building our entire lives and businesses this way. And, listen, this isn't necessarily a bad strategy. But if you want people to see you, to acknowledge you, to recognize you… you’ve gotta stand out. And if you’re just going with the flow, doing what everyone else does without asking why — welp, yah just blend into the crowd. Standing Out Without Being That Person The alternative isn't wearing neon jumpsuits or speaking exclusively in haikus. The secret is embarrassingly simple: be more conscious. Instead of blindly following others, pause and ask: * Why am I doing this thing this way? * What's my actual perspective? * Is this working for ME? It's about switching from automatic to intentional thinking in a world where most people are running on autopilot. Project Planning: The Unsexy Secret Weapon The most practical takeaway sounds about as exciting as organizing your sock drawer: project planning. Project planning forces you to ask: * Why am I doing this? * What do I actually want to happen? * What's my strategy? * What's the actual first step? These questions might seem basic, but most of us skip them entirely, jumping straight to execution mode following the same tired blueprint everyone else uses. The Serious Truth Bomb Remember: "No one takes you more seriously than you take yourself." If you're approaching your work with "aw shucks, who am I to do this thing?" energy, you're telling everyone else not to take you seriously either. Taking yourself seriously doesn't mean acting like Adrien Brody accepting the Oscar. It means recognizing your power and not wasting it. The bottom line: To be seen, you need to do things differently. 📚 Resources and Links: * 📩 Connect with host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠team Holisticism⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Sign up for the North Node waitlist here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Inquire about 1:1 work with Michelle here * Join HOW TO BEGIN: A PROJECT PLANNING CLASS here This is a public episode.

    The Twelfth House+ Audio Course: How to Use The Psychology of Self-Identification For a Soft, Non-Pushy Sales Strategy

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit thetwelfthhouse.substack.com What if you didn’t have to convince anyone to buy from you? What if your ideal clients already knew they needed your work — and were ready to say yes before you even made an offer? That’s the magic of a diagnostic. In this episode, Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpacks why diagnostics — things like quizzes, intake forms, and archetypes — are the secret weapon behind businesses that sell with ease. Instead of chasing clients or trying to “sell harder,” diagnostics help people self-identify their needs, understand their pain points, and see exactly how your work fits into their journey. In This Episode We Cover: 📊 What diagnostics actually are — and why they’re one of the most underrated tools in business 🛠 How to build a diagnostic system that classifies clients into archetypes and guides them to the perfect solution

    Expanding IRL Marketing with KP

    *record scratch freeze frame* You're probably wondering how we ended up here, doom-scrolling at 3am and feeling like our businesses live and die by the whims of an algorithm created by tech bros who definitely think their morning cold plunge routine earns them moral superiority. “Can you even have a business without social media?” Well, yeah. Of course. You just might have to get scrappy with it. On today’s episode, KP Pilley and Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpack the common urge to boycott social media platforms—especially when they feel overwhelming, exhausting, or just not fun anymore. But before you ghost Instagram, they explain why completely abandoning these spaces might not be the best move. Instead, they offer ways to use social media intentionally, without letting it consume all your energy. Marketing IRL: Connecting with Your Audience Outside the Internet Remember life before we all became digital avatars of ourselves? Turns out, gasp, marketing existed! And it worked! Some might even say it worked better, back when we weren't all competing with an endless stream of AI-generated content about manifesting abundance through the power of positive thinking. KP breaks down some delightfully analog ways to reach your people: 📌 Events that actually build community (and how to make them accessible, engaging, and worth showing up for) 📌 Old-school marketing that still works—flyers, direct mail, and real-life conversations 📌 Finding your audience where they already are, instead of trying to force engagement online 📌 Branded giveaways and creative guerrilla marketing (because who doesn’t love free stuff?) he Power of Your Network (No, Not Your Wi-Fi) Here's some cosmic truth: word-of-mouth marketing is basically manifestation in action. KP gets into the magic of referrals and those beautiful loose connections – you know, the people who've been quietly watching your journey but haven't felt compelled to drop "queen 👑" on every single post. The Bottom Line (Because We Still Live in Late Stage Capitalism) Marketing shouldn't feel like a root canal without anesthesia. If you're not having at least a little fun with it, you're doing it wrong. This episode is your permission slip to break free from the algorithm anxiety and create a marketing strategy that feels as good as finding out your crush's birth chart is perfectly compatible with yours. Ready to make marketing feel less like a chore and more like casting spells? This episode is your grimoire for mixing digital and analog magic in ways that actually work. No "just be authentic!" toxic positivity required. 📚 Resources and Links: * 📩 Connect with host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠team Holisticism⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Sign up for the North Node waitlist here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Inquire about 1:1 work with Michelle here * This podcast is edited by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Softer Sounds Studios This is a public episode.

    Psychic School and Navigating Tumultuous Timelines with Natasha Levinger

    In this chaos carnival we call life, where doom-scrolling is an Olympic sport and debilitating anxiety comes free with every social media subscription, here's a wild thought: maybe “trust yourself” isn't just a cute Pinterest quote — it's a battle cry. (Too dramatic? idc!) In this episode, intuitive medium and inner child whisperer Natasha Levinger tells all about developing your psychic abilities — not as some woo-woo skill that requires you to rename yourself Starflower and move to Sedona, but as something that's literally just part of having a human meat suit. Intuition isn't just vibes – it's information, baby. Intuition, Somatics, and the Art of Knowing Yourself Natasha shares the practical, embodied techniques she uses to stay centered and in control of her own energy—especially in triggering or overwhelming situations. From working with the inner child to closing the aura and separating from unhelpful energetic influences, she explains how to navigate life (and the unseen) with confidence. They also explore the fascinating link between physical posture, embodied cognition, and intuitive strength — because how you hold yourself physically shapes how you hold yourself energetically. Your body is a tuning fork for psychic information, and understanding this connection is a game-changer. Boundaries, Fear, and Why Humor is a Psychic Survival Skill One of the biggest myths about intuition? That it makes you vulnerable. The truth is, strong intuition requires strong boundaries. Natasha explains how to set energetic boundaries (yes, even with spirits) and why maintaining control of your own energy field is essential—especially when dealing with fear, anxiety, or external chaos. The Biggest Mistake People Make When Developing Intuition—and How to Avoid It Developing psychic and intuitive abilities isn’t about forcing anything; it’s about tuning in to what’s already there. Natasha shares the common pitfalls that hold people back and how to approach intuitive development in a way that’s natural, accessible, and (dare we say it?) even fun. If you've ever felt the call of the unseen (or just want to know why you always know who's calling before you check your phone), this episode is your permission slip to trust that weird feeling in your gut that's always right about your ex's new relationship. 📚 Resources and Links: * 📩 Connect with host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠team Holisticism⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Sign up for the North Node waitlist here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Inquire about 1:1 work with Michelle here * This podcast is edited by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Softer Sounds Studios * Connect with our guest, Natasha Levinger This is a public episode.

    How To Do A Subconscious Audit

    Welcome back to The Twelfth House Podcast! Let me give you the sparkly SparkNotes version of this delightfully chaotic guide to understanding your own personal drama factory (aka your subconscious). This is essentially a 11-day deep dive into why you keep self-sabotaging like it's your job — except plot twist! You're not actually sabotaging yourself at all. *gasp* Key revelations that hit harder than your 2am existential fears: * Your patterns aren't trying to ruin your life — they're just overprotective helicopter parents doing their best impression of "helping" * Those "blocks" you keep hitting? They're actually just your system downloading updates at the worst possible moment (like an iPhone, but make it psychological) * Jealousy isn't toxic, it's your subconscious playing hot-or-cold with your actual desires (turns out hate-following people on Instagram is actually productive, who knew?) * Your fear isn't your enemy — it's more like that friend who's a little extra about your safety. Yes, they're dramatic, but their heart's in the right place. The Subconscious Audit guide walks through: * Pattern detection (aka "why do I keep doing That Thing™️") * Fear investigation (spoiler: it's usually protecting something valuable) * Tiny experiments (because nobody needs an Eat Pray Love moment to make changes) * Support systems (turns out willpower alone is giving very much "thoughts and prayers" energy) Bottom line: You're not broken, you're just running a particularly complex operating system that occasionally needs a reboot. Like Windows Vista, but make it personal growth. The goal isn't to become some enlightened being who floats above their patterns — it's about becoming fluent in your own chaos language. Think of it as learning to speak "fear" as a second language, complete with regional dialects and slang.
