186. Join Me For 11 Days Of Sharing On Social Media | Hyping You Up To Share Your Medicine with The World

Over the years of being a social media guide and cheerleader for healers, artists, coaches and entrepreneurs, I’ve seen so many people give away their life force to how they think they “should” show up online.

What if there is no right way?

What if you start before you think you’re ready?

What if consistency is the key that unlocks miracles?

Let’s explore it together! After seeing the transformation that 11 days of daily social media posts brought into Eric Brief’s life (episode 185), I am guided to hold the space for us to do it together.

If you feel like you’ve been putting off showing up full out on social media until XYZ is in place… this is your time. Join me on 2.2.2022 – or anytime you see this – to build your muscle of releasing perfection and JUST SHOWING UP.

Perfecting your strategy can always be introduced later on, but sometimes it’s about throwing all possibilities at the wall and seeing what sticks. Experimenting. Having fun with it. And releasing the story that you’re not ready!

I will be doing the challenge alongside you over on @ksenia.brief Instagram.

Here’s how to participate in the 11-day challenge:

Comment on the challenge announcement post on Instagram @ksenia.brief and let me know you’re in! Bonus points if you share your current favorite song.
Find at least 1 person in the comments to that post that you resonate with and go HYPE THEM UP on their page!
On February 2-12, 2022 share on your feed DAILY! It can be a photo, a reel, or an IGTV. If daily feed posts feel way out there for you and you’ve been shying away from stories, do this challenge on stories instead. If TikTok is the platform that has felt like a “one day” project, maybe this is your time to take it on. Just don’t sell yourself short! Choose a platform and content format that feels out of your comfort zone, but doable.

How to prepare for the Challenge:

Get clear on your intentions for showing up consistently on social media (and leave space for miracles)
Go through the 5-Day Aligned Social Media Reset
Start writing down content ideas

184. Journey Into Your Essence with Music – EQUANIMOUS

Equanimous, aka Nate Stein, is a music producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist who is one of my go-to artists on Spotify.

He combines elements of downtempo, bass, house, and melodic dance music to create a joyous high vibrational atmosphere on the dance floor. Equanimous expands the electronic music experience by playing live djembe, keys, and beatboxing along with his tracks. He’s known for his deep bass, beautiful melodies, live looping, and creative rhythmic beats that take people into a state of euphoric dancing and heart-centered bliss.

We discuss:

What it’s like to produce music from an energetic perspective

Journey to finding your inner essence through music

When Equanimous decided to choose a career in music

One of the most important spiritual books that influenced Equanimous

Finding your voice and genre as a musician

The reality of having Spotify as an income stream

What does “Equanimous mean”? And the story of how it was revealed to Nate as his musician name during a Vipassana retreat

What steps to take if you know you have a song in you

Nate’s conscious dance music, High Vibe Records

What success as an artist looks like for Equanimous

A dream of playing music out of the sky

183. Remember The Powerful Creator That You Are | A Cacao Ritual For New Beginnings

Make a cup of ceremonial cacao or another beverage that feels cozy, and join me for this ritual to remember the powerful creator that you are.

With this activation, we will intentionally choose to step into a new beginning, picking up along the way any fractals of your being where you’ve given your power away.

May you step into the portal of your heart, honor the nature within you, and choose to playfully co-create with the elements around you.

Come back to this ritual anytime you’re called to create a new beginning.

182. 11 Business Lessons I Learned This Year: Entering The Roadless Realm Of Infinite Possibilities

As I reviewed the episode where I reflected on this year and created a vision for the New Year, I realized that I barely touched on business. There’s been a lot of unlearning and uncertainty in this area for me in 2021. The linear expectations of success have been replaced by a moment-by-moment, intentional co-creation with Source.

There’s no certainty.

No blueprint.

No assurances.

Within the void, there’s a lot to explore. In this episode, I share my process – not as someone who’s got it all figured out, but someone who’s in the midst of creating a whole new way of showing up in the world.

Instead of achievements - like I would have a year ago – I share 11 energetic blueprints that I took away from all my experiences related to business in the past year.

181. Reflecting on This Year and Creating A Vision for The New Year with Intentional Journaling Prompts

Taking intentional time to pause, reflect and create a vision is one of the most powerful practices you can do anytime of the year, but especially as you prepare to step into the New Year!

In this episode, I share the prompts I use to reflect and journal on the current year and to create a vision for the New Year. I did a similar episode a couple of years ago, and it’s been fascinating to witness how the change in my values is reflected in the prompts themselves.

In this episode, I share my own answers to the prompts.

Use these journaling prompts to create a vision of how you want to show up in the world – alone, with your family or in a circle of close friends!
