How Many Ways Can You Hurt…… October 22nd, 2010
Yourself and Your Business?
This has been a week of repeated mistakes – each of them has been shown to me – as I have brought the bright shining light of awareness into them – as deeply self-sabotaging.
Sunday I was supposed to speak – speaking is the way that I share my message, speaking is also the way that I attract new people to my list, people who are supposed to be working with me and my Divine Business Partner in some way to transform their lives. Speaking is the oil for the engine that runs this company. Sunday night I had a speaking gig – on a radio show – hosted by a coach who has lots of listeners who are entrepreneurs – people I am here to serve otherwise I would not have been attracted to reach out to be a guest on his show. For the first time EVER in my life – I didn’t show up – I completely missed this engagement – it wasn’t like I was sick or something and couldn’t do it – I just totally forgot. I’m not going to make any excuses – it’s my job as an entrepreneur – as a speaker – as a guest who is scheduled and has been promoted – to show up! That was the start of the week.
Two days later – I undersold myself – I’m in a coaching mastermind with Kevin Nations – the Big Ticket Blueprint Mentor. I’ve heavily invested in this program – I have a GREAT coach – a coach who knows what the heck he’s talking about it because he’s living it every single day – a coach who knows and shares with abandon – exactly how to create a business model that not only values the transformation that I provide appropriately but also values my own desires to live a certain lifestyle – a lifestyle that allows me to be at football games for my son, a lifestyle that lets me choose when, where and how I’m going to work. What I did on that call when I was talking to the client was I judged, I assumed, and I robbed – that’s right – I robbed that person of the opportunity to receive the BEST work that I and my partner have to offer. I robbed myself and my partner and my business of the opportunity to receive fully and completely the value of our work. I robbed myself of the wisdom that my mentor has supplied me with time and time again. I robbed my business of my single minded focus.
Then on Wednesday I really blew it – in the biggest most heinous way possible. In my work – ESPECIALLY in my private work – the creation of a relationship of safety, trust and sacredness is THE NUMBER ONE most important aspect of the work. Creating Sacred Space for someone to dive into the depths of their being – to bring to the surface all the wounds, all the fears, all the doubts, all the traumas, all the dramas that are blocking them from moving forward fearlessly and courageously in the delivery of their most precious gifts to the world is what I do! It’s because of the high level of integrity and impeccability that I intend to create and hold that people are willing to invest in themselves through me. The creation of a reputation as one who is impeccable with my word and deeply honoring of the process of my clients is what my business has been built upon. People know their “stuff” is safe with me. I have a SOUL LEVEL agreement to keep private stuff private unless I’ve been given permission to share. What did I do on Wednesday? I told a private client story – on the phone – on a live call – and I did NOT have permission. Professional Suicide. And of course – wouldn’t you know – the client was actually on the call – listening. 2.35 minutes of total idiocy, lack of consciousness and disrespect for the sacred agreement – betrayal of trust. Uck!
Yesterday I spent the day sitting in my stupidity – self flagellating and running a constant stream of conversation in my head that repeatedly reminded me of my total inadequacy as a human being, a teacher, a healer and a leader. I also experienced a deep desire to run and hide – to give it all up – to say to hell with it – let someone else play this role – I’m finished. I tried to shift the burden – to pretend innocence – like “I was just following this system” and deep inside I knew THAT WAS A CROCK. This was followed by the refrain of a favorite oldie as the “I can’t do anything right” song played loudly in my head. Followed by “Whatta my gonna do NOW?” Followed by a wide array of ways I could throw myself on my sword and cut out my heart to give it to my private client in order to somehow make amends.
Finally I stopped. Took a deep breath. Looked around at the carnage and said to myself – ok – what was that REALLY all about. Know what – I think it means I need to let go. To let go of the need to always be perfect. To let go of my own judgments about others and myself. To let go of the need to control everything, do everything, be everything. To let myself be – to stop picking the scab of low self worth and let it heal. It’s time. To breathe again – to take personal responsibility and to look for help in transmuting all this within my own system – the SCORE for your Spiritually Energized Entrepreneurial Success System which my Divine Business Partner Mikael Sami-Kumara and I deliver in our CORE PATH – The Foundations of Divine Wealth Intensive!
I’m going to SCORE myself and my business – Surfacing (did a pretty good job of that this week) Clearing – That’s the next step for me now – Opening (I wonder what will happen when my client and I have an open conversation about this) – Revealing – What are the hidden gifts – what do they mean for my business – what is all this showing to me? and finally ENERGIZING – because let’s face it life goes on. We can either be in it – the messy as well as the beautiful or we can check out – it’s going to keep on going and going and going like the Energizer Bunny – remember him?
How many ways can YOU Hurt? Comments are welcome – I want to hear your stories – I’m working on collecting stories of Evolving Entrepreneurs who have seen and experienced the Shadow Side of Success – and I’ll be reaching out for those tales of fails! You can choose to be public or anonymous (I’ve learned this lesson to Be MUCH MORE MINDFUL with the sacred trust!). Send me email with your story – we may be making a book! (amethyst@theeenergyjourney.com) Going to go do some self care now – to make amends for the wounds I’ve inflicted on self and others. I invite you to do the same.

Do you know when to act and when to be still? Energy is actually always in motion – every atom in the universe is filled with electrons that are moving constantly – as matter slows it appears to create something solid and tangible like a desk, a tree, a mountain or a human. You as a conscious being have the capacity to speed up or slow at will.
The slower you get, the more palpably you can feel and perceive energy – your own as well as that of your business. As the seasons change the invitation to slow comes directly from nature herself. When we attempt to force things to happen in our lives and our business we waste our energy and life force and can often end up overwrought, overwhelmed and overexhausted. While each of us has our own natural rhythm and cycle we can look to the larger rhythms and cycles of nature as a guide and we can consciously choose to align ourselves and our work with those larger flows of energy.
Taking time to slow down, to be still and to act with greater attention to detail and more deliberation allows you to crystallize or solidify your intentions to create an entrepreneurship that is finely crafted like a piece of great art or sculpture. Your business – your entrepreneurship – is the vehicle through which you are delivering your soul’s gifts to the world. Your practice then is to create this vehicle with the mindfulness and patience that will enable you to deliver in a way that is both sustainable and allows you to maintain the fire of desire that keeps you interested and invested in bringing that passionate purpose to the world.
My partner Mikael and I have been working within our Core Path Intensive program with clients who are learning how to manage and master their personal power (also known as energy) and how to connect that power with their passionate purpose in RIGHT RELATIONSHIP. When the HIGH OCTANE fuel of first discovering your passionate purpose wears off then the long term process of establishing a healthy and DIVINE partnership with your business begins to be called forth from you. Being an entrepreneur in and of itself is a spiritual practice. It can be a challenge that hones your spirit to be asked by the world and your business to slow down, to come into a place of stillness and to act with clarity, with intent and with deliberation after experiencing periods of rapid growth and development that fire up your imagination and exercise your creative gifts.
Be kind to yourself as you and your business go through the quite normal ups and downs of crafting a relationship. Know that there are tools and skills that you will be acquiring and building along the way. Look to nature as an example of sustainable creativity. Notice your own energy and how it ebbs and flows. Get in touch with your own rhythms and cycles and organize yourself and your work to accentuate your strengths. Delegate or delete those areas where you are weakest from your business model. Don’t try to do everything at once or be like everyone else that you see out there. YOUR gift is unique. YOUR journey is your own. There is perfection in the stillness. Allow yourself and your business to just BE sometimes!

Struggling? – May Be a Sign of An Energy Leak! May 27th, 2010
I just got off the phone with a potential client – she’s got great content and a powerful message AND everytime it’s time for her to go out there and speak about her message she’s blocked – in a BIG way! What I “saw” was a “tug-o-war” that was going on between her (adult self) and her (inner child self). It looked like a continuous loop that just kept playing back over and over. This is exactly the type of block that can be so DESTRUCTIVE to you and your business. Can you see how if every time she’s ready to speak – the “fear button” gets pushed and then she’s in this back and forth with herself! What this does is it ties up and drains out a great deal of her energy – when she is finally ready to take the stage and speak – energetically she’s getting up there with a field that is “battle worn”. This is the energy she is emanating AND what she’s going to attract in to her field are two different types of people:
1) Other battle worn, world weary, exhausted and drained people who want to work with her to have her “fill them up”
2) People who are going to pick up the other end of the rope and start pushing her boundaries in the client relationship – always asking for sessions on their terms or times, or canceling and wanting to reschedule or not being able to make their payments timely or whatever the latest excuse is for them not doing their work or following her program.
(Note: both of these scenarios can also play out with staffers and support team members or in other aspects of your life – maybe not in the business but in your personal relationships – regardless you are not able to bring the fullness of your presence to your work if you are looping like this!)
Now the thing about these energetic loop back patterns is that NO AMOUNT OF SELF TALK – Mindset Shifting – or coaching on the mental, emotional or physical levels is going to permanently shift this pattern. This is an ENERGETIC imprint on her very soul that can be EASILY shifted and cleared though via the soul level/energetic shifting work that is available through the CORE Path Intensive or via private sessions with either myself or my lead Energy Mastery Coach Trainer Michael Neely.
And what happened with this potential client?? Even though she could CLEARLY see that doing this type of work was EXACTLY what she needed – she Manifested – right in that moment of decision the EXACT tug of war that she needs to overcome – as soon as it was time to step in to investing in herself and making the commitment to deep and permanent transformation – which she herself said quite clearly was without a doubt the right choice for her – then all of a sudden BOOM- the no money tape started to play!
Mmmm me-thinks I smell a loop! Will she ever get out? Who knows… my bet is not without the help that is EXACTLY what will serve her best! Right now she’s highly invested in 4 other programs – do you think she’s going to get the most that she can out of any of them? Doubtful – there’s just not enough energy left after going into battle ONE MORE TIME with her small self to really capitalize on anything she’s invested in learning at the moment – that’s all just brain candy to satisfy that FEAR MONSTER who’s living in her brain – that “rational” voice that tells her she’s not REALLY good enough to be GREAT!
Are you ready to end your own struggles? Time to let go of the rope? Excited to turn away from the battle and surrender to your true destiny? You know what to do…..
Love lights us!
Peace is in you……
Amethyst & Michael

As an Evolving Entrepreneur one of the most important things that you can focus your attention on is your own AUTHENTICITY. As we move up the vibrational scale on a planetary basis and as higher and higher consciousness begins to emerge for more people, one of the by products is the ability to “see” and more often “feel” when someone or some thing is inauthentic.
As has been pointed out in previous posts energy is everywhere and everything – including in your business ventures. When you are engaging in your vocation, your own authentic voice, values and vision must all be in alignment in order for you to truly succeed in delivering on your mission and purpose. Often there can be mis-alignment at an energetic level that is being transmitted out from your business to your clients, customers and prospective business partners. Transparency has become a buzzword in business recently – some are trying to “jump on” the transparency bandwagon and are generously sprinkling their presentations and offers with the word – but the energy doesn’t lie – these folks are often using the phrase “I want to be totally transparent with you” and the truth is that they are just using the word but aren’t at all BEING what they are trying to convey.
Energy doesn’t (in fact it can’t) lie. What these folks don’t actually “get” is that they are transparent to those of us who can SEE THROUGH what they are saying and are aware of the fact that the walk isn’t matching the talk. True transparency isn’t something that you can conjure up – it just is. If you are acting in alignment with your intentions – if you are being honest with yourself and you aren’t just hiding behind the buzzwords and trying to ride the wave of the cultural zeitgeist then you will naturally draw forth from the Universe all the opportunities and experiences, clients and business partners that will serve you and the highest good of all concerned. If you find yourself struggling then perhaps its time to take a look at whether or not you truly are aligning with your authentic voice, vision and values.
Recently I attended a couple of events – authenticity is a core component of one of them – a year long mastermind about Sales, Authenticity & Success. As you can see from the title of the mastermind, Authenticity was intended by the creator as an integral part of what was being promoted when the event was sold. One of the most beautiful gifts of the event was witnessing a fellow masterminder move through a process of releasing a role that no longer served her as the “righthand gal” in her husband’s business and embracing her authentic voice – quite literally – by the end of our retreat she had claimed her truth as a singer/songwriter and stood up to perform for us all a fragment of a song that came to her as soon as she opened her heart to that possibility. It was a beautiful sight indeed to see this petite beauty stand up – reach down into the core of her being – open her mouth and sing. Truly a wonderous gift and I’m sure she’ll be supported in the development of that aspect of herself as the year unfolds by all of us.
When you find yourself stuck, repeating patterns, torn in two, feeling bound to a certain role or way of being – energy shifting can help to move you through this and bring about a greater degree of authenticity within yourself and by extension within your business. Acts that are inauthentic actually drain us of our life force energy, they create “energy leaks” so to speak – we have to spend time and energy “covering” for ourselves – whether it’s within or in our everyday acts – and this can be a great waste of time, money and opportunities. Learning Energy Mastery is all about moving into that place where you are able to automatically align with your most authentic expression. Being in that place of full authenticity frees up tremendous amounts of energy to channel through the greatness that you were here to deliver to the world. If you need some help with this – if you feel like this post has spoken to you in some way – I welcome your comments – and further I welcome your application for a Strategic Orientation Session – a little SOS that will unveil for you exactly where you are at in relation to your true self. My team is still working on a link for that application – so until that gets squared away you may request one by sending an email to team@theenergyjourney.com – I look forward to chatting with you soon!

It’s so incredibly rewarding to have the opportunity to work & play with HIGHLY motivated, incredibly passionate, enthusiastically engaged entrepreneurs who are so dedicated to their life’s purpose and passion. It’s even more exciting to be blessed with the opportunity to serve them into their HIGHEST level of greatness and expression in the world. What I find truly delightful in this great work is the satisfaction that comes from not only knowing that my client has been able to make a major transformation but that as a result of their shift – they will be delivering to their own clients a higher vibration, a higher vision and a higher frequency of light and love which will naturally create more of the same throughout the world. That pebble in the pond effect just knocks my socks off!! Hope it does for you too. Here’s a peek into the story of one of my recent CORE PATH Intensive Clients – Geoff Laughton of www.geofflaughton.com – enjoy!

Well we are about at the end of this retrograde period – it’s been a goodie – lots of clearing – lots of releasing of old rusty dusty energies – lots of reviewing lessons learned and lots of resting and rejuvenating to bring us through the “dead” of winter preparing for dreaming the coming year into being…. Here are a few more remedies to get you through these last days of the retro – see you in April for our next little Retro rhythmic break!
ReNegotiate!
We all have contracts in our family and work life, many are unspoken and implied and over time may not work anymore. Now is a great time to surface these contracts for discussion. (Especially if you are feeling any resentment building!)
ReAlign!
As you deeply look at where you are, where you’ve come from and where you’d like to go, you may find that it’s time to more perfectly align your actions with your intentions.
ReLinquish!
It’s a perfect time to surrender all your illusions of control. If something “goes sideways” today just know that Mercury is helping you to let go and let God just a little more!
ReVeal!
Do some deep inner work, go in to the shadow realm, explore your lower world. Bring the bright shining light of your awareness in and see what treasures you have lying waiting in the darkness.
Are there areas of your life where you are ready to let go of some things that are keeping you from moving forward with your passionate purpose? There are times along everyone’s journey where they require a little extra help, a little OUTSIDE perspective, a little re-visioning and re-viewing of what is possible and what is no longer tolerable. If you are feeling the urge to get that updated perspective now might be a great time to apply for a chance at a one on one strategy session with me! We’ll explore together EXACTLY where you are and the possibilities for getting you going again!
