Whitney got married in September 2022 in a beautiful little resort on the backside of the Tetons. It was an intimate, aligned, authentic ceremony and celebration that I was lucky to attend with my partner. In this episode we discuss Whitney's journey in planning their wedding, how she/they stayed centered in flow and alignment, how they handled when things inevitably didn't go 'perfectly', and a lot of joyful, fun details! Congratulations Whitney and Greg!  To connect with us further, follow: Ariel: ArielArnson.com | IG: @ariels_cosmos Whitney: BeingOppen.com | IG: @whit_beinoppen

Tis the season for witches. As Halloween approaches and images of the witch surround us, what do we really know or need to know about the history of witches, how it's intertwined with the oppression of women's rights, and what the affects or influences the witch narrative still has on women today. For this conversation, Whitney and I brought in my dear soulsister and historian Hannah to shed more knowledge and insight, and of course, to make a coven of 3. 🧙‍♀️ I'm hosting a Witch Wound Collective RTT Healing Session on October 24th at 7pm central time.

Although the path through personal, spiritual and relationship growth and development is messy, and never ending, it does not mean that it is always actively hustling and bustling. Whitney and I are both in phases of deep growth and integration. And both of us keep getting messages from the universe to SLOW DOWN and REST.  So what does that look like, sound like, feel like?  This leads us to a conversation around envy. While we may be at different depths and rest moments of our journey, we talk through the struggles of seeing other people in action points in theirs. Join us through this flowy, coaching, supportive conversation.  Let us know where you are along your messy path right now? Are you in a rapids? A swiftly moving stream with the wind at your back? Or are you in this deep slowness like us? Share with us! If you're interested in working with either of us, we both offer free consultation calls!

Whitney hit a big milestone birthday in September 2021. Because she is the amazing and inspirational coach that she is, she is sharing the 35 things she's learned in her 35 years around the sun! We're splitting this conversation into two parts so you get the most of Whitney's story sharing, resources, and inspirations! 35 List (continued from Episode 60) 18. Give thanks for each relationship, even if they end in flames - you learned and needed some aspect of the experience 19. Enter every situation with a beginners mind. Even if it's something you're an expert in. There's always more to learn. 20. Learn how to FEEL your feelings without becoming them. There's a big difference. 21. Know that you'll never have the same conversation twice, everyone in your life is always changing, as are you. 22. Change may feel foreign but it can end up being the most comforting feeling. 23. Even on your darkest days, you're never alone. One of the other 7 billion people on the planet is feeling the same thing you are in their own life. 24. The fears you have are not unique, they can be overcome. They're a guide post of where you're ready to expand next. 25. Learn a different language, it will help you see differently in daily life. 26. Study other religions and beliefs than the one you were raised with, it will show you that all humans are looking for the same comfort and support. 27. Don't be afraid to change mid-stream. Sometimes you have to explore something to realize it's not for you. 28. Push yourself to go further than you thought you could. There's always enough energy for one or two more steps on the path. 29. Find a belief, practice, or place that bring you comfort - use it often. 30. Don't hide what you're truly feeling. You'll regret not being real with someone more than you'll ever regret "losing face" 31. There is no external person, place or thing that will ever fill the hole of love. You must first love yourself and create things you love in your life.  32. If you admire someone, tell them. We all need support and to honor our gifts. 33. Don't ever downplay your talents, someone admires you for them. 34. A genuine conversation will mean more to someone than 'keeping it safe' with small talk. 35. Take the time each day to be present with your surroundings - feel the air, smell what's around you, touch the nearest surface... ground yourself here if only for a moment. Let us know what resonated with you! What are you being called to work on? What do you feel like wisdom of age and experience has taught you? Share with us!

Whitney hit a big milestone birthday in September 2021. Because she is the amazing and inspirational coach that she is, she is sharing the 35 things she's learned in her 35 years around the sun! We're splitting this conversation into two parts so you get the most of Whitney's story sharing, resources, and inspirations! 35 List: 1. Your intuition is always right 2. You won't have to second guess if a friendship or relationship is "genuine" if you are questioning, it's not genuine.  3. Working your ass off for a future goal (when it's set by someone else - ie a boss) is never going to leave you 100% happy 4. Take at least one solo 4+ day vacation 5. Take the time to figure out what your ideal day is and do your damndest to make part of it blend into each day (even if you're working a job you hate) 6. Start honoring your budget NOW (and it doesn't have to be painful!)    Resource: I will teach you to be rich by Ramit Sethi 7. Take your fears and journal why they're not true, it's one of the most freeing exercises you can do 8. Time in nature is never wasted 9. When you feel you don't have any time "for you" is when it's most important to take time to step back, even for an hour 10. Don't worry about finding your "life's purpose," find your NOW purpose. You're a dynamic being - and life will change you       Resource: Soul - 2020 Pixar film 11. Understand that each chapter of life will have a different focus, different energy. Don't judge each chapter on it's own but look at the whole 12. Ask yourself each day "What does my soul need most?" and do your best to give it to yourself 13. Take up a hobby you had or wanted in childhood as an adult, it will fill your spirit 14. Take time to get to know yourself, outside of societal expectations. Strip all the "could, would and should" away and ask "who am I"? (Don't answer with labels like "mom, friend, job title.") 15. Find something you admire in every person you meet. It'll help you be more open to all possible connections in life. 16. Do your best to understand differing perspectives. We are all having unique and connecting human experiences 17. Don't put anything on a timeline. It will come when it needs to. (Continued in episode 61) If you're interested in working with either of us, we both offer free consultation calls!
