In today's episode I have the honor to have a deeply reflective conversations with Aubrie Gates. We recently connected on Instagram over our mutual fascination with True Sidereal Astrology and how that impacts and changes our Human Design Charts. In Tropical Human Design we are both Manifesting Generators, and in the True Sidereal version of out Charts we both become Generators. Allow yourself to be illuminated through our reflections and contemplations, and take on Astrological Systems and Self-Identification. Aubrie also shares her fascinating journey of her spiritual awakening. It's a very raw and real episode, that you will enjoy a lot I think! About Aubrie: In 2020 Aubrie had a profound and sudden spiritual awakening, through her first macro dose of Psilocybin. Immediately after, she dove into all things spiritual, including human design, astrology, plant medicine, Gene Keys, breath, work, meditation, and more. She then quickly realized that she had a passion for her spirituality like nothing she’d ever experience before and that she wanted to make it into a career/lifestyle. Since then, Aubrie had a VERY trial and error journey to learning to believe in herself to build the life she envisioned and she was diagnosed with Lupus (which she have always believed is connected to her struggles to express her creative work). Now, because of her struggles to build her dream business/life, she has such a passion for helping other spiritual women build Divine Feminine Businesses: businesses where we find more success with ease & play. She does this very holistically- using the tools she’s found to be most helpful, such as one-on-one mentorship, community & ceremony curation & more.

This week I'm thrilled to be joined by the insightful Keli Carpenter! We take a deep dive into the transformative power of conscious surrender and trust. Keli sheds light on how these concepts evolve as we work with different layers of ourselves, from processing emotions to uncovering messages held within our breath. She emphasizes the importance of presence as a foundation for healing, allowing us to soften and experience emotions safely with the right support. We explore Keli's powerful framework of five levels of conscious ownership: learning, understanding, support, practices, and finally, surrender. Through this framework, Keli and I discuss how trust and openness to the unknown unlock deeper wisdom and even a touch of magic in the healing process. We move beyond the hype to ground ourselves in the calming, slow pace that true inner healing requires. Keli emphasizes the importance of patience, especially when incorporating breathwork into healing modalities. She underscores the need for a safe and comfortable container for us to fully engage in the transformative process. This conversation with Keli offers a multi-layered approach to healing, encompassing mind, body, and soul. Together, we explore how to break free from trauma and evolve beyond limiting stories. About Keli: Keli is no stranger to mind, body and spirit awareness. She first started practicing transcendent meditation at the age of six. Keli is also a published author, has professionally studied with Gabor Maté and is the founder of both The Other Side of Average – Therapy for the Soul and the TOSA Method.

Welcome, lovely souls, to a special solo episode of The Art of Slowing Down. Today, I want to take you on a journey into a pivotal turning point in my life as an online entrepreneur. It's a story of shifting from constantly seeking external solutions to realizing the power of tapping into my own creativity and intuition. I found myself caught up in consuming endless amounts of content, enrolling in program after program, and following every trend in the pursuit of success. It left me feeling disconnected from my true self, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, and constantly comparing myself to others. I had to pause and ask myself: "Am I the person looking for the deal at the store, or am I the store itself, offering valuable products and services to those who need them?" This realization sparked a significant shift within me. I committed to stepping into the role of a creator, rather than solely being a consumer. I discovered the importance of experimenting with content creation, trying things out, and learning from what works and what doesn't. Through this process, I embraced my spontaneous energy and found that the magic often happens when we follow our inspiration without overthinking. In the midst of this transformation, I also recognized the significance of slowing down, embracing self-care, and nurturing my own well-being. This allowed me to connect with my inner wisdom and create content that truly resonated with my audience. It's not about someone else's secret or a magic bullet - it's about tapping into our own creativity and trusting our intuition. Join me as I delve into the art of slowing down, embracing authenticity, and nurturing our inner wisdom in this episode. Enjoy! How to connect with Analena? Ready to unlock your zone of genius?
