Wondering what my money mindset self-study course for women is like?

Here's a taster.

Introduction to my unique money-mindset program for women.Underearning is so normalised for us, we sometimes don't even realise how much it's at play.I'm on ...

In case nobody noticed, there's an election happening in the USA.

It's creating a LOT of tension, not only for folks in the US but also for those of us living in countries that have a relationship with the US.

Which is basically everyone. 😬

Wreaking more joy in the world could sound ridiculous and impossible and kind of gaslighty, given the turmoil and turbulence being created with this election.

Over the next few days, I'm inviting ALL of us to do whatever we need to do, in order to reduce (not eliminate) stress or anxiety.

(I say 'not eliminate' because this IS a stressful occasion, there IS a lot at stake - especially for anyone from a historically marginalise community - and it IS a complex situation; so eliminating stress would require more toxic positivity than I like.)

But we can, and should, take care of our nervous systems to the best of our ability; as well as pass on anything that might help someone else to take care of theirs.

There are a few options that can be effective:

🗳 get involved - find ways to participate in political resistance and/or campaigning; and recognise that this is how we connect with our highest vibration (to use LOA / conscious creation terminology). I wrote about this back in 2020 - https://www.confluencedaily.com/2020/07/03/activism-law-of-attraction-style/)

🛡 proactively protect your nervous system and your energy body, especially before engaging in conversation about politics - in person or online (I talked about this on a podcast with the delightful Laura Jane Layton - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep131-secrets-to-shielding-your-energy-in-style-with/id1689071843?i=1000650120888)

❤️‍🩹 begin mastering the art of healing your own chronic stress - because in the aftermath of a pandemic and a lot of global turmoil, many of us carry more than we know. If you'd like a resource for this, either DM me to ask or join my free FB group where you'll find it in the Files section

💕 don't try and go it alone - if you're feeling a swirl of rage, helplessness, doubt, exhaustion, alarm, anxiety or existential despair, there ARE allies out in the world and there ARE communities where you belong, even if they seem elusive right now. Hyperindependence is a trauma response, a perfectly reasonable attempt by your brain to keep you safe - and it's not necessarily your friend, or accurate, or helpful. Please DM me if you're feeling the need for a safe place to land (and I promise I won't try to pitch you anything)

I'm not letting global or international or even local politics deter me from my mission to wreak more joy in the world.

If anything, I'm more determined than ever.

And - to be fully transparent with you - I'll be following every one of these suggestions my own self, because my brain needs reminding from time to time. 😏

What's going on in the USA right now?

Fundamental internal work on her identity.

I wrote this four years ago. Aside from the 'of the moment' stuff in the last paragraphs, I wouldn't change a thing.

And it might be useful for anyone in your world who's really struggling with what my good friend Lisa Marie Hayes calls political PTSD.

Not to 'cure' or 'fix' it - but to maybe help reduce the sense of WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K??? that can add a layer of trauma.

Exhaustion, disengagement, and low self-regard lurk at the heart of burnout.

All three affect our physical bodies, our mental health, and our emotional wellbeing.

That's why I prioritise the following in my work (and in my own life):

🌟 effective replenishment
🌟 sensory engagement
🌟 self-pride

Obviously there's a LOT to unpack here!

But these are at the heart of everything I do with my clients - because they work.

OMG 🤩🤩

Asynchronous Coaching is THE BEST. That is all.

I was asked 'what change in the world are you BEING?'

I want to wreak more joy in the world, as an act of political defiance (because people who know how to access true joy cannot be manipulated or controlled).

How do I access and allow joy, as someone who experiences depressive episodes on a regular basis?

I explore the ways that joy HAS to encompass and make space for rage and grief and fear, too.

No doubt some humans are naturally sunny and inclined to the shiny joy of dancing through every day. I love that for them!

For those of us who spend time in the shadow realms, aiming for only the shiny kind of joy can push us into toxic positivity, spiritual bypassing and inhumane ableism.

True, deeply resonant joy only becomes possible when we embrace and find compassion and love for the whole of our messy humanity, not just the shiny, 'acceptable' bits.

In my personal life, I practice radical self-compassion (and I still have LOTS of work to do before I get really good at it 😏)

And I find as many ways as possible to help people (without being a doormat, cuz that is also not joy 😬)

In my work, I help women who are doing important work in the world, but feeling stuck in a daily grind, yearning to reclaim the resonant joy and passion for their work.

In other words - I kinda do the same for them. 🤔

Heads up, working women - your work matters in the world, whether it’s art or advocacy, teaching or transformation.

Is that career still bringing the joy you used to feel?

Or do you sometimes feel like you're dragging yourself to work like an escapee from the Walking Dead, wishing it could be different?

Whether you've been mulling over a complete change, or yearning to fall back in love with the current gig, that joy of fulfilment is crucial.

It's the inspiration, the fuel that keeps you going.

You can't fake it.

But you can rekindle it.

I have two spots coming up in my private 1:1 client calendar.

If anything here pings, please go check out more on my website (link in my bio) and see if you think we'd be a fit.

I'm on a podcast!!!

And not just any old podcast - I'm on The Laura Jane Layton Show!!!

Where I get to share some of my favourite things: self-fulfilment, kindness, dismantling the unkind BS self-talk that gets lodged in our own heads, and astrology.

And Laura Jane VERY kindly let me look at her chart. That takes some courage - so it wasn't a surprise to find she has Sun in Leo heheheh.

Hypothesis: joy is an act of political resistance.

Experimental parameters: wreak more joy in the world.

And by joy, I don’t mean the toxic positivity “light & love” crap.

I mean the bone-deep joy of becoming the person you came here to be, in all her messy, wonderful glory.

I mean the deep, contented joy of doing your important work in the world, staying connected to the inspiration and passion which fuelled it in the first place and ditching any sense of daily grind, burnout or exhaustion which might have crept in.

I mean the ferocious joy of knowing your boundaries, and knowing how to stand your ground in the face of the BS systems we live in.

I call it 'resonant joy'.

People who know how to tap that core of resonant joy cannot be radicalised and cannot be manipulated into hating 'the other'.

People who know how to tap that core also know how to witness and participate in the crucial work of resolving the problems of the world - whether at a collective level, or one creature at a time.

It's a far more delightful place to live life.

And it's your birthright.

Not the temporary joy of buying the latest shiny thing.

But the deep, peace-filled joy of knowing your work matters, you matter, and the difference you make in the world matters.

This is why I do what I do.

Wreaking more joy in the world, one human at a time.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Some days the process of growth and change feels like crawling naked through the mud, over broken glass, in the dark.

I'll be the one over here with a lamp and some warm clothes and the band-aids when you need them.

I'm just saying.

In one of my top five favourite working spots - local library.

Got all my gear - laptop, pens, journal, blank paper.

Ready to go shake up some s**t!
