    Wrapping Up Season 2: Let's Check-In Together

    Virginia James [00:00:03]: Welcome to the Zone of Purpose podcast where the f*****g girl culture takes a seat, and we do business from your wise woman calling and your soul's magic. Speaker B [00:00:14]: Hey. It's good to be back. I'm excited to have this wrap up conversation with you in season 2, and I just wanted to circle around. And first of all, I just wish you a beautiful holiday season regardless of what you celebrate, how you celebrate. Do you celebrate any of that. And I wanted to also convey this message, especially after the US elections, how important it is right now for us to continue to find community that aligns with us, that walks or stands or sits or settles with us and our values, and how critical it is for us to come together for one another as well as this beautiful land, the future generations, and also our ancestors because they haven't left us. They're not they're not gone in any way, shape, or form. They're in our body friends. Speaker B [00:01:09]: They're in our hearts. They're in our minds. And so as I continue to look at FSW in the future, let's be very honest. I talked about this on a a couple other platforms. But after the US election here in November, things are very interesting. That's the nicest way I can put it. That is absolutely the nicest way I can put it. And it's made me think about the future of FSW in a big picture. Speaker B [00:01:34]: Right? In the big picture sense, as well as in the minute, or day to day details, the minor details of how this business operates and how I operate because it's just me. It's just me here, as the, what do we say solopreneur, the one running the show, so to speak. So I wanted to be honest about that. Now this is a quick episode checking in and saying, oh my god. There's been tech issues. Oh my god. You know, there's just been things, like, not getting in the way, but curveballs. Right? Those plot twists we've talked about or side quests. Speaker B [00:02:14]: And November was no different. November was no different. I know there's a few other business people out there who also needed to just take a minute and go, holy shit. What just happened here? And things will continue to unfold. I believe that in my very bones. I believe there is still more to witness or bear witness to and to sense and even construct and clarify. But in that meantime, I'm going to continue to do what I can. Now I'll admit, I've been, oh my gosh, I've been launching and, you know, so many different things this year. Speaker B [00:02:47]: I've, you know, I've created different offers and I've been showing up with a 110%. And so guess what? I'm gonna dial it back this month. I'm dialing it back. I know. Some of you might be shocked. But at the end of the day, if I don't take care of myself and sit back for just a second and regroup and get the big picture of FSW in my soul, is we're just gonna fall into January February, and I'm just gonna keep on going like a train. So I'm going to kinda lean back for a second, and that's why I wanted to share this with you today. I'm gonna lean back for a second for the next few weeks over the Yule holiday using winter dormancy as my guide and saying, what's next? What do we do from here? Do we keep doing frequent episodes? Do we do check ins? Do we do different storytelling? You know, honestly, I'm okay with things being up in the air, generally speaking. Speaker B [00:03:45]: Is it always comfortable? No. But I have faith and I know that what FSW needs to be for y'all will be. What FSW needs to do, I will do. So I just wanted to bring that to the table. And even when things are up in the air, we have each other. We have each other even when even when we're told we're alone, even though we feel alone sometimes or like nobody gets us or everyone's out there against us or the people we love, etcetera. We have each other. I've got you, you've got me. Speaker B [00:04:20]: Also use, if you can, at least if you're in the northern hemisphere, we'll call it winter dormancy. If you're in the southern hemisphere, it's your summer. So, so just depending upon where you're at in the world, take a little bit of time, allow yourself to reset. I've talked about this before. Don't squish, new word, don't suffocate your business or your business dream so much it can't shift with you because you and I are always evolving, my friend. We are always evolving. Okay? And so this is critical to remember. We can't stay stagnant in business. Speaker B [00:04:57]: It doesn't mean we throw spaghetti at the wall every 4 hours, but let's not be stagnant. Okay? Because this world is evolving. The communities we are a part of are evolving, and we need to as well. Alright? Let's wrap this up. I'm so glad I could do a check-in. I know it's been a number of weeks since I did the last episode because, again, there's been some tech issues, and so I'm just letting I'm trying to let things settle and, and, you know, kinda regroup. But if you need anything, there is feminine sage wisdom.com. I'm also going to a couple different platforms, I'll be very honest with you, to see, where the community builds from there, and I will let you know, in the next episode coming up where I'm landing. Speaker B [00:05:43]: Okay? Let me just keep getting my footing there first, so you can find me there. Again, I've got you. You've got me. There's all these other episodes you can listen to from the last, the second season, and also from any of the episodes before to get some, like, just a boost. Right? You know, and get some energy back. So just know that I wish you so many blessings in this season and in the time ahead and just take time for you, come back into your roots, come back to your ancestors, do your business with soul, not just the head, but with soul and we got this. Alright? Okay. I will talk to you soon. Speaker B [00:06:26]: Blessings. Virginia James [00:06:28]: Doing life and business with soul is where it's at. And if you wanna get started, grab your soul seeds guide. It's under $40 and can be done in a weekend. And don't forget, my friend, it's time to align with your calling. However you do it, ditch the hustle and bring your soul's magic to life.

    Your Aligned Money Awaits

    Virginia James [00:00:03]: Welcome to the zone of purpose podcast where the f*****g girl culture takes a seat, and we do business from your wise woman calling and your soul's magic. Alright. Virginia [00:00:12]: So today we're talking about money because money is hella important, at least in this world where we have to basically survive using it. Right? And I know that there's other texts that I've read before about money being energy and money, you know, being a currency of energy, etcetera. But what happens when we have shame around it? What happens when we don't know how to find it within ourselves, not just outside of ourselves? So today's a little different because I am announcing a mini course, and I am so excited about this because it goes a little beyond the normal message you might receive. I vote, personally, that money is not just mindset. It is so much more. That's what this mini course is about. It's about embodiment. Okay? I can't even like express how important this is to me but also for you. Virginia [00:01:08]: Because when you think about money mindset or you think about how we show up, how we talk about money, how we express our confidence in it, God, when you even think about the shame surrounding money, that doesn't do us any f*****g good. Let's be honest about that. K? So I made up this mini course for you to feel more empowered, not alone on your money journey. And when you consider your soul's work and how important it is, I am bringing you kind of this practice of aligned money, divine inheritance beyond mindset. Check it out. I'm dropping the link in the comments below. Alright? And see what's in it. And, know that I'm excited for this. Virginia [00:01:57]: I'm actually really excited for this. Back in the day, the old Virginia would have been like about offers or launches or things like that. But now I'm like, this is a good tool. This is a good practice because it's not about shame. It's not about you thinking like you're an idiot with money. It's a whole new beginning. It's a whole new journey. So check it out. Virginia [00:02:16]: Remember that your divine inheritance, you f*****g deserve that shit. Nobody can take that away from you. You deserve it. Start there. K? I have a different energy in the in the meditations. I'm just bringing it to you bringing it home today. And the other thing is, if you hate meditating, don't buy this. Okay? Because it's 11 days of a well, daily meditation and journaling or reflecting, if you like that term better, and embracing money in a new way. Virginia [00:02:47]: Alright. So enough about that. And if you have any questions, you know where to find me. Ask s f s w. I always get that wrong. It's not s f w. It's FSW, feminine sage wisdom. Alright. Virginia [00:02:58]: Hope you have a great day. Virginia James [00:02:59]: Talk to you later. Doing life and business with soul is where it's at. And if you wanna get started, grab your soul seeds guide. It's under $40 and can be done in a weekend. And don't forget, my friend, it's time to align with your calling. However you do it, ditch the hustle and bring your soul's magic to life.
