    187: Saying Goodbye for Now with Paula Crossfield

    I’m being totally transparent by saying that 2024 has been a LOT for me, both in my life and with what’s going on in the world. Because of those things, I’m taking some time off from the podcast. My primary reason for this decision is to spend more time with my dad, who is terminally ill. In addition, I feel a shift coming in the way I do my business, so I need to take a step back and gain a fresh perspective on future steps. Getting back to the basics of astrology and taking care of myself during this hiatus will help me in many ways. I will be back, even if things look different because I’m passionate and committed to my podcast platform. So, this episode is just a “goodbye for now” message from me to my listeners.  Show Highlights: Trusting the process and exploring possible pivotsMy two containers for 2025:  Cosmic Business Bootcamp and the Heal Your Money Karma program (Learn more about these programs on my website.)Wishing you all the best, Happy Holidays, and my hope to be back with you in the near future!

    181: How We Do Things Matters with Paula Crossfield

    Tomorrow is Election Day here in the US. No matter what the outcome is, we have to ask ourselves how we want to proceed. We have taken so much for granted that it’s time to stop making assumptions. Far beyond who the next US president is, the truth remains that how we do things matters. Let’s talk about this concept.  Show Highlights: Getting to the end we want through force and violence is NOT the answer. (Dr. Robert Svoboda brings the truth forward in his Aghora Trilogy that “The ends don’t justify the means–the ends ARE the means.”)Think about how you want to achieve your goals.Negative qualities bring negative karma.Relate this to your business and the outcome you want.Lead your work from a place of ease and spaciousness that honors your body and mind.Our only option is to be MORE intentional.A new way is emerging around self-care, energy, and trusting yourself.Can you treat your life like an altar?Finding personal inspiration from a dear friendGetting to the next level requires change.My advice around taking a pause, listening to your intuition, and infusing more intention and care into what you’re doingThe question: What can you do to bring more intention and awareness into how you are doing things?
