Join me this week as I share what’s REALLY happening when we’re doing something new and everything feels terrible. I promise it is not what you think!What the Great Reorganization means - and the exact cycle so you know what to expectWhat things are happening beneath what you can seeHow all of this relates to believing you ‘should be further along’ that you currently areThe absolute best thing you can take away is this: when everything feels terrible (BECAUSE you are moving towards something new), remember that all of your shit is being reorganized so you have the bandwidth and capacity to have what you are creating.You will still feel uncomfortable at times, even when you know what to expect, but knowing what’s happening gives you much more choice over your experience. Episode NotesWant to begin a journaling habit?

Join me this week as I share why we have hustle culture wrong. The most important takeaway is - whatever you do to get what you want, you have to keep doing to keep it. Knowing this, you can uncover what you’re really desiring, and use that to fuel what you create. Here’s what’s possible when you know the difference between creating from desire vs hustle:Why ‘doing whatever it takes’ to create what you want usually leads to being disappointedHow to uncover what it is you’re *really wanting* (which is the reason you want the thing you want) How to utilize your desire to create with self-compassion, befriending yourself, and using goals to pursue self-growth (rather than hustling, proving yourself, and seeking external validation)Episode NotesWant to begin a journaling habit?

Join me this week as I share about how to stop making decisions from external pressure, and begin making decisions and choices based on your nervous system (using your inner knowing). Sometimes we gain awareness around something and our nervous system truly needs time to integrate that information but society tells us to move fast, go go go. Here’s what’s possible when you move at the speed of your nervous system:Learnings and education and lessons that are available within ourselvesIntegrate, feel into, and process whatever we might need to before we make the external switchTrust that that unfolding process is valuable for me/you/usLive as a practice of our values rather than hustle cultureFully intact nervous system, mental health, physical health as you move towards this thingShow NotesWant to begin a journaling habit?

Join me this week as I share how I’ve changed my thinking about having a consistent practice - I no longer think it’s better than doing what actually feels in service (it changes day to day). I have been challenging and questioning what I’ve taken on as meditation student, and how it applies to any practice - creative, exercise, writing, etc.In this episode, I share: How to know if what you’ve learned still feels true (+ in service) to YOUHow showing up in real life is more important than being a perfect-practice-student (and a sports analogy that I hope makes sense - I am not a sports person!!)How I see meditation as a life practice (rather than a sit-for-20-minutes-and-then-go-into-life-mindlessly-or-on-autopilot)What I mean by living life as a meditative practice (with a real-life explanation)Show NotesLearn how to Map Your Intuition with a guided worksheet, located inside The Resource Library - learn more HEREIf you want to feel intuitive in your creative practice, AND tap into your one-in-eight-billion perspective and contribution, head to www.jenmoulton.com/newsletter and get my Intuitive Creation Audio.
