    WEB8: Weaving Our Reality

    WEB8 holds conversations that weave inner and outer technology as a vehicle for your soul’s expression in the world. We explore entrepreneurship, creativity and ritual in the digital age. Welcome to the space where you weave a new world of soul led self expression, in a world of infinite possibility. May the frequencies you tap into on this podcast remind you that you are the weaver of your own reality, expressing soul through your humanity. May you be moved into peace, truth, joy, playfulness and inner knowing. May you have the courage to invite in synchronicity as an expression of God, and miracles as a natural side effect of being alive. Synchronicity brought you here because you're ready, and deep inside your soul knows why. I am your host Ksenia Brief and my intention is to activate ripples of courage for you to share your own voice and medicine with the world. I’m here to hold space of curiosity, play and unwavering trust as we dive between the physical, the digital and the unseen realms. I invite you to listen to the whispers. Releasing enoughness, receiving aliveness. With every breath, every thought and every word, creating a new world. A world where you are free to share your unique medicine. A world where we tell a new story of creating, connecting and sharing. A world where you show up from the truth of who you really are.

    168: Trust Your Soul’s Journey

    168: Trust Your Soul’s Journey

    The question is not how to get millions of podcast streams and make YouTube videos that hundreds of thousands of views, but … what did my soul come here to learn?

    People who are embodying their soul’s calling have a certain frequency they carry. 

    It’s never too late to ask that question and discover what lies beneath desires, anxiety and addiction.

    The only sustainable way to show up on social media is to Share because you genuinely want to share, not just to build a brand. 

    There’s no formula for the perfect social media presence, brand or business, only moment by moment tuning into what’s meant to come through you.

    167: Let Go Of Busy Work, Connect to What Matters | Creating A New Paradigm From Within

    167: Let Go Of Busy Work, Connect to What Matters | Creating A New Paradigm From Within

    Your biggest contribution is the same thing that makes you feel alive. 

    When you let go of “shoulds” and live from that place, everything changes.

    It takes trust, it takes letting go of opinions, but on the other side of it is a profound sense of being a vessel for what’s meant to come through you.

    In this solo episode, I share a 5-step process that’s helped me move from “busy work” to giving my energy to what matters. I also share a  harmful social media habit I’m ready to rewire, and the productivity system that I’ve been using for the past year that makes all the difference! 

    The 5 prompts shared in this episode: 

    1. Things I’ve already taken on and agreed to deliver 
    2. Things I enjoy doing  
    3. Exciting outcomes 
    4. Whispers and ideas that have been in my field 
    5. Things I can take off my plate to make space

    164: TikTok and IG Reels as a Pathway to Miracles with KSENIA and CARO AREVALO | Conscious Social Media Sessions

    Should you be on TikTok? Is learning short form video content worth your time and energy? I’ve been getting this question a lot in Digital Attunement Sessions with clients. 

    In this episode, I share the possibilities that TikTok could open up for you, and you get to listen into a TikTok mentorship session with the talented artist Caro Arevalo (from episode 104).

    We cover:

    Creating possibility instead of following rigid marketing formulas 

    TikTok as a psychedelic trip 

    Coming up with a dream list of brands to work with

    Setting boundaries with consuming content on social media

    The pathway to start posting less and creating more IRL

    Cross posting on TikTok and Instagram Reels

    Cutting cords with a social media handle that is no longer aligned

    Caro shares a challenge to get comfortable in front of camera and on YouTube

    163: Cultivating Abundance: Spaciousness, Peace and Play

    163: Cultivating Abundance: Spaciousness, Peace and Play

    Since my last solo update in episode 160, things have been shifting a lot! 

    Reporting on my learnings from being mentored by Michelle Sinnette, trusting social media as a doorway, 5D Mastermind closing ceremony, leaning back into receiving, and being the vessel I’m meant to be when creating content and beyond.

    We’ll cover: 

    • Trusting your path without having to understand it
    • Seeing the human experience as a playful invitation to bring ingredients from the Divine pantry into the Earthly realm
    • Releasing the myth of unworthiness and softening into receiving
    • Practicing energy hygiene when holding space for clients and students (Group programs, masterminds and one-on-ones)
    • The alchemy of the process of creation over outcome
    • What the work I do is really about
    • How surface social media strategy is meaningless without inner work
    • Trusting the unique message you’re meant to bring into the world 
    • The power of attention, intention and invitation

    162: BJ MILLER – Surrendering To The Flow Of Life, The Power Of Being Love and Receiving Love

    162: BJ MILLER – Surrendering To The Flow Of Life, The Power Of Being Love and Receiving Love

    Dr. BJ Miller is a longtime hospice and palliative medicine physician and educator. If you haven’t seen his powerful TED Talk titled “Not Whether But How” (aka “What Matters Most at the End of Life”), please watch it prior to listening to this episode. 

    We go into territory BJ hasn’t typically talked about on podcasts.

    “If we love such moments ferociously, then maybe we can learn to live well — not in spite of death, but because of it. Let death be what takes us, not lack of imagination.” - BJ Miller

    We discuss:

    Discovering awe and mystery of life through nature

    Surrendering to the flow of life

    Finding wisdom in daily life that’s right in front of us

    Where can we source the courage to remember our unique medicine?

    What happens after a popular TED talk

    Finding peace with being a work in progress

    Inhabiting a made-up social world

    Why BJ Miller isn’t on Instagram or TikTok

    Is conscious social media possible? 

    Social media as a way to be more ourselves

    Psychedelics as life-affirming vehicles 

    Exploring meaning through existential crisis that can come up within the context of palliative care

    Making space for both meaning and meaninglessness

    The importance of palliative care

    Expanding our perception of what’s normal 

    The power of being love and receiving love
