When youâve outgrown your circumstance,
a simple yet powerful shift can help you align your actions
with your evolving values and desires for a more authentic life.
I use this mindset shift personally and with my clients.
Let me show you.
Make Magic:
To embrace the power of your agency and choice, reflect on
areas in your life where you feel done tolerating certain behaviors or situations.
Replace "I can't" with "I am unwilling to"
and notice the shift in your mindset and power.

This episode is about the liminal space we find ourselves in when weâre in the process of becoming.
I talk about the temptation to maintain the status quo, the importance of trusting in our desires, and the power of leaning wholly into our ever-changing selves.
I hope this episode gives you comfort, reassurance, or reminds you that you can trust that the key to clicking back into place is to just keep becoming who we are.

Ever felt like you're going through a growth spurt, but for your soul? You might feel tired all the time, hungry for more in life, and even a bit awkward. Whether initiated by ourselves or by the events in our lives, our personal growth spurt challenges us to shed old identities and embrace new possibilities. It urges us to invest in what truly aligns with our evolving selves. We can see ourselves through these changes with extra care, understanding, and nourishment.
Mentioned:

The most empowered doings come from the place where we feel most integrated. And while society prioritizes productivity and doings above all else, I believe our sense of being is just as important. When we take time to honor our needs, we attune to our most aligned selves for our most potent doings.

-
Cultural norms encourage us to diminish our light, to hide it, and filter it into its most benign form. But like a diamond, we are sparkly and multi-faceted contributing to our luminosity. We shine most brightly when we own and love and show all of the different parts of ourselves. This spell will help you nurture and embrace all facets of yourself for deeper levels of fulfillment and authenticity.

Contrary to popular belief, being in the process of figuring things out yourself can make you an even more effective teacher or coach. Many assume that teaching implies mastery, but often it's those still navigating challenges who offer the most valuable insights. And by embracing your ongoing journey of growth, you gain a deeper understanding, connect more authentically with others, and continuously innovate.
Mentioned:

As creative humansâentrepreneurs and leaders alikeâwe find ourselves coming around to the pressures of productivity again and again.
The more you progress in your career and express your talent, the more challenges you may encounter.
I hope todayâs episode expands your thinking again and reminds you to embrace self-care, honor your creative instincts, and model a holistic approach to productivity for a more fulfilling and sustainable way of being.
Make Magic:
To honor our own creative journey and contribute to a sustainable, respectful way of being in this world, we must prioritize activities that nourish our creativity and well-being, trusting that productivity thrives in an environment of self-care and natural rhythms.
-
As growth-oriented individuals, you're here to heal, usher in better, and, just like plants need fertilizer and light, you need more support, time, space, rest, connection, and pleasure.
Embrace the idea that growth demands receiving more than giving, fostering a net gain in energy.
It's time to let yourself need more.

As we usher in this new year, I want to explore trust.
It's a silent powerâlike the glowing embers of a fire.
And it's cultivated through action and experience.
Each experience, whether successful or challenging, contributes to the embers of trust.
May this spell light a spark in you, inspire you to embrace experiences, and take steps, no matter how small, towards building the trust that sustains you and propels your growth.
Mentioned:

Real talk. Letting things be easy is actually incredibly hard.
Patriarchy, hustle culture, late stage capitalism.
All of these dominating systems benefit when
we act as though hard work and sacrifice
are the only ways we can prosper in the world.
Hereâs a spell to help you build more ease into your life,
and to remind you how much you deserve it.
Mentioned:
timewitchery.com/planner, where you can get a Time Witchery anti-planner to help you be intentional about cultivating ease.
Make Magic:
In order to let things be easy for yourself,
you have to remind yourself of two things.
First, that ease is possible.
And second, allowing yourself ease
enables your generosity.

Brains are amazing things, and one of their most fascinating features
is the way their two halves process and evaluate the things we experience.
Left brain plans and analyzes, it develops systems and structures,
while right brain attunes to its surroundings and experiences
the here and now without trying to impose order on it.
Theyâre both vital to our experience of the world. And yet.
One of these approaches is very much favored
and encouraged by our dominating culture.
Letâs talk about why we need right brain magic,
and how to nurture its influence in our lives.
Mentioned:

Creativity is hard AF, and sharing it with the world can be terrifying. Thatâs just one reason why Iâm so in awe of my guest this week, Dr. Giavanni Washington. She had the passion and persistence to develop a stunning oracle deck that honors African Goddesses with photography of amazing black women. Sheâs here to talk about why she felt required to birth this project into the world, and how she sustained the belief in herself that was necessary to make it a reality.
Mentioned:
Dr. Giavanni Washington is the creator of the Black Goddess Within Oracle Deck, which is available to pre-order at https://www.drgiavanniwashington.com/deck. She is also an intuitive healer, mother, speaker, and spiritual guide. She holds a doctorate from UCLAâs Department of World Arts and Cultures and was recently selected for the California Creative Creative Corps Artist and Culture Bearer Fellowship by the California Arts Council.
The African Goddess Rising Oracle card deck by Abiola Abrams https://womanifesting.com/goddess-oracle-cards/
Make Magic:
So much of cultivating the courage to create is about honoring yourself and your vision. Allowing yourself to feel the desire for things that mainstream culture tells you arenât appealing, and investing the time and energy that you and your creations truly deserve.
-
Creating a new thing can be pretty messy.
Learning how to do something requires us to start by
screwing up, making mistakes, and being kind of bad at it.
If youâve developed an attachment to succeeding,
planning to be less than great at anything can sound like a nightmare.
Hereâs a spell to help you embrace
the glorious imperfection of making something new.
Mentioned:
timewitchery.com/planner, where you can get a Time Witchery anti-planner to help you keep track of your experiments.
Make Magic:
To keep your perfectionism from overwhelming your creative impulse,
donât think about it as doing a thing (which means doing it superbly).
Instead, try imagining yourself as a scientist,
and whatever endeavor youâre embarking on as a creative laboratory,
where success is all about gathering information
and learning by doing.
-
It has been a minute since I recorded a new spell,
but the break did exactly what I hoped it would.
It allowed my creative brain to rest and recharge,
and now itâs ready to share with you once more.
This spell will help you take the big idea you have in your head
and turn it, bit by bit, into real, sustainable, effective change.

Make Magic:
Big changes happen tiny step by tiny step.
Whenever change is impeded, itâs ALWAYS
because the step you think you need to make is Just. Too. Big.

My love, I have for you today the most inspiring, powerful conjuring.
Bernardine Watson is a poet, writer, and author of an award-winning memoir.
She is a force of nature. She is glamorous. She is grounded.
I just pinch myself to tell you that Dine is also a friend of mine.
I asked Dine if she'd be willing to talk about what I think she does so well,
which is conjuring the fullest self-expression.
I hope you find this conversation as inspiring and motivating as I did.

Make Magic:
If you are not your whole full self,
the world will not know you, and
you will not know yourself.
Itâs time to start treating yourself like
the main character in your own story.
Like you are the most important person in the world.
