Elevate Your Life and Soul Mala Kennedy

"We get to keep ascending, we get to keep learning, evolving. And the more that we interact with each other, the more conversations we have, the more perspectives we hear, the more new information comes in. And the more we grow our own consciousness, we elevate our own consciousness and then that's really the fun of it. We get to learn from each other. So there's always more to learn. There's always more to know. That's the fun part."

Tuning into our intuition is something we all have access to, in this episode I talk to Kerri Hummingbird about tuning into this and allowing our consciousness to rise.

"Your mind reacts to the words and images that you feed it. You have absolute control of how any situation turns out for you."

Our limiting beliefs can really hold us back, our beliefs start forming as children and reframing them and changing our stories is so crucial.

"Abundance is also not something that comes and then we feel abundant like money isn't something that comes into our life, and then we feel abundant and taken care of and safe. There are people with money in the bank who feel broke, you know what I mean? Who feels scared of losing it all the time. abundance is a feeling that we first tap into, no matter what the external circumstances."

Abundance is our birthright, and everyone is worthy of having it. We also can all create it, and in this episode I explore this with Viola Hug.

"When you're able to become more confident about your story and you become more heartfelt, and more real about what you want to share, and it really comes from the heart, not just what you think other people might want you to share, when it when we really get to that place, that deep place within you, that's where the confidence can arise."

We all have our stories that come from our experience of life, they are shaped through our unique lens.  Everyone's context is slightly different and this is why everyone has a book inside them.  In this episode, I sat down with Book Coach, Danielle Perlin-Good to chat about why your story matters.

Growing up Jewish, Danielle was always extremely interested in familial history, ancestry, and her roots. She loves helping others share their family’s history and showcasing it to the world.  She firmly believes in telling stories of the past so future generations can learn from trials and tribulations.  She worked at a children’s publishing company as the social media coordinator for over three years, several Chicago-area newspaper companies, and has helped numerous small businesses with their digital marketing efforts. She has more than 12 years of writing experience and has a BS in News-Editorial Journalism from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In her free time, she enjoys swimming, practising yoga, being outside, and spending time with her husband and their son.

"I've always been a natural person who's loved people but was always really disappointed by them. And I just woke up one day and wasn't disappointed anymore because I just understood I understood that hurt people hurt people, and it's just made me understand."

Self-Awareness is about knowing yourself. It's about claiming your identity and accepting who you are. It's about letting go of the people-pleasing and self-sabotaging that can keep you stuck.

In this episode, I chatted with Jackie Coban about how self-awareness saved her from herself.

It's taken me some time to post this because I've been processing what's been going on in the world. White privilege is real and we need to continue to do the work for equality.
