1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:12,560 Hello everyone and welcome to a new episode of the Awaken Together podcast. I'm Kat. 2 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:20,560 I'm Jen. And this is going to be our season finale of season five and the last episode of the year. 3 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:28,400 Woo! We made it! We made it. What a year 2023 has been. In this episode, we're really excited to 4 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:34,880 kind of just reflect on the year that this was and hopefully inspire some reflection for you as well 5 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:42,720 as we go along. We're going to start off with sharing a bit about our Spotify raps. It was 6 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:48,560 so fun to see. So Jen, I'll pass that over to you to share some steps. Yeah, it's always so fun when 7 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:54,800 we get the Spotify raps because it's just like such a... It's so fun to have gratitude and hold 8 00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:02,000 space for just all the changes. Like this podcast is so intuitive and been so easy for me and Kat 9 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:08,560 to kind of integrate into our life. And then, yeah, just to see how it's grown with our community and 10 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:15,680 all of the listeners is so fun. So a few things that we want to share. We got to post on the 11 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:24,640 Instagram page too, but we were listened to in 69 countries. Great number. Great number. We were the 12 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:35,120 top five podcasts for 492 of you and the top podcast for 76 people, which is so amazing. Thank you to 13 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:43,840 all who are listening. And we created 808 minutes of content for you guys, which is just such a cool 14 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:49,600 number. Kat had a little side. You said it was the frequency of this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So 808, 15 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,320 it's like a big number in bass music. It's like the frequency that a lot of bass music is aligned 16 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,360 with. So I'm like, hell yeah, 808 creation, abundance. Here we go. So thanks for being 17 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:06,720 Vibee guys. So what we're here to say and we really do appreciate the growth and just listening and 18 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:12,720 traveling this awakening journey with us. It's actually wild that we are now at the end of season 19 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:19,120 five when this was just a little whim idea one day. And here we are just like so many years later. 20 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:24,960 And yeah, we really appreciate you all. So grateful. Yeah, what a journey it's been. I can't believe it's 21 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:30,240 our third year really doing this. We're heading into our third year. We started this little 22 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:38,240 pod in 2020. So here we are now. We've grown so much. We have as people, as speakers, I think, 23 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:47,920 host. So yeah, huge. And for this episode, so we have done this at similar end of year episodes 24 00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:55,120 previously. And we definitely invite you to refer back. We had an episode already with a guided 25 00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:01,920 meditation for a previous year in review. And in this one, we wanted to provide you just some 26 00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:07,840 journaling prompts and kind of share our own reflection of the year that we've had. And we're 27 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:14,560 also going to use the same prompts not only to review 2023, but also kind of to set in motion 28 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:21,840 intention for 2024. And me and Kat are fresh off of just having a little vision board party. We 29 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,880 just made our vision boards for the year and got to review it. Me and Kat also started our periods 30 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:34,240 today. We're synced. Yeah, just a side note in Mercury retrograde sitting here. Really in 31 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:40,320 sunk with everything happening. And yeah, we have just spent some time just talking through some of 32 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:46,320 the year and we just wanted to share it with you. So as an overview, we are going to break this into 33 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:53,920 four categories, home, mind, body and spirit. And we'll go over our own processing so you can hear. 34 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,720 So if you want to journal along with the episode, you can get your journal and just kind of separate 35 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:05,520 the pages into four sections so that you can kind of think through the different categories and which 36 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:11,680 things that have happened over 2023 kind of like pinball into all of these different sections. 37 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,680 Yeah, this is truly I get so excited for this time of year. It's my it's one of my favorite 38 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:25,360 times of year. It's so funny the ending of it. But I find so much beauty and power in sitting down, 39 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:32,640 journaling, actually reflecting on this year's teachings. I think it can get forgotten like 40 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:38,000 all the little things, all the things that at the time feel like the big things and then more 41 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,280 things just happen that feel bigger, that everything starts to kind of get forgotten or 42 00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:49,840 getting it gets stored away into little compartments of our mind that like the memories there. But 43 00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:56,240 it's not when we think back on the year like it's not really loud. And so this exercise has been such 44 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:02,560 a powerful ritual in my life. I know in yours too, Jen. Been doing this for years and years. 45 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:09,840 Yeah, because if we don't take this time to intentionally sit down and collect all of the 46 00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:16,560 blessings, the lessons in the year, it will truly get forgotten. And so we make a little 47 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:23,440 journaling archive, write it down, store it, and then we can take all the lessons and begin to 48 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:30,320 integrate them into our greater lives to never be forgotten. And this is what it means to live 49 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:36,880 intentionally live consciously. And we got this concept. So Kat and I have shared this many times 50 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:42,160 in the podcast that Yoga Girl podcast was something we were both listening to. It's what ended up 51 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:47,840 leading us to meet each other. And this comes from Rachel Brathen who had like broke down this 52 00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:53,600 concept of breaking it into whole mind, body, spirit. And because I have years of this now, 53 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:58,800 it's also been really fun just to kind of keep building on it. So if this is new to go into 54 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:04,160 kind of a deeper reflection, this system is really just like a fun way to categorize. 55 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:09,760 Yeah. And like Jen mentioned, we're going to go through those four categories, whole mind, body, 56 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:16,000 and soul or spirit. And in last year's episode, we went through a full meditation 57 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:24,320 to really like help you close your eyes, reflect and watch the year as if it were a movie in your 58 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:30,800 mind. So if you'd like to do that before this episode or before you really get into your journaling, 59 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:38,560 you can reference back to the episode we posted on December 30th, 2022. And it's going to be 60 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,280 very similar activity with the journaling, but just an extra meditation to help you drop in 61 00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:52,960 in that one. Yeah. So let's start this off Kat. So beginning with the home category and I can start 62 00:06:52,960 --> 00:07:01,040 us and overall my word of the year was experience. And I have sat on the pod and to Kat many times, 63 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:08,640 like I picked an ambitious word because I experienced so much this year. And I think home 64 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:19,920 was like a pretty hefty category for me as far as what went down in 2023. So I actually spent four 65 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:27,600 months of this year living in Chicago and I did a travel assignment there. So my sense of home 66 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:33,680 had to really shift. Not only was I living in like a completely different city and a completely 67 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:41,200 different space and leaving my home here in Denver behind, but I also then had to kind of figure out 68 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:48,480 what home meant very internally, not just externally because there was such a shift in 69 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:54,160 groundedness that I could tap into because I didn't have any of my normal surroundings. I think that 70 00:07:54,160 --> 00:08:00,480 was just like super introspective for me. And then even leaving Chicago and going back to Denver 71 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:06,880 took such an adjustment too because my yeah, my sense of home was just so kind of shaky and bumpy, 72 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:14,000 but I really think that I built like what makes me feel grounded and safe kind of within in a 73 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,920 deeper way, which kind of falls into some other categories. And then under home too, we like to 74 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:26,800 look at not just what shifted in home life, but what also shifted with kind of like family, 75 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:34,160 family life. And I actually got to spend some really, really good quality time with family. My 76 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:41,040 grandma lives pretty close to Chicago. So I got to spend some really nice one-on-one time with her. 77 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:48,080 I had my family come up from Florida a few times. And yeah, there's always so many layers of healing 78 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:54,400 to just be with my family because I've shifted so much as a person. So it's always, it doesn't 79 00:08:54,400 --> 00:09:00,800 necessarily lead to tons of shift and how my family orient. They're pretty kind of set in their ways, 80 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:07,360 but it's always really beautiful to see how little that kind of shakes me up and how little I respond 81 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:16,480 to it now just from my growth. But another huge layer of family this year was Danny and I have 82 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:24,160 come out as Pauly. We have been exploring that lifestyle and we ended up opening up to my in-laws, 83 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:29,600 Danny's family about this. So there was a lot of vulnerability and shift with coming out with this 84 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:35,760 new information. I think there was a lot of processing, lots of emotion. It really went on a 85 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:41,760 roller coaster and ended up landing in a beautiful spot. But that was also very vulnerable for me. 86 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:47,760 I'm so used to keeping secrets and not going into stuff because of my upbringing and just not 87 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:53,360 really having a safe space. So to be vulnerable about something happening in life and come out 88 00:09:53,360 --> 00:10:01,760 about it way louder and openly and have to have really intentional conversations was also really, 89 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:09,760 really huge. And I think, yeah, I think with being able to share Pauly with my sister and my 90 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:16,080 cousins and just some of my family members knowing who my safe spaces are that have kind of grown 91 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:23,440 with me and accept just lots of layers of me that meant a lot to. And yeah, I've just got to see the 92 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:32,240 shift. So home for you, Kat. Such a big category. And it's like your friendships, relationships, 93 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:38,240 family life, home life. Oh, it's just so much. What a year it's been. 94 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:44,080 Yeah. Yeah. So Kyle and I celebrated being in our physical home, the one that we bought 95 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:51,920 March or really February 2022. We've been here for almost two years now. So we celebrated a year 96 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:58,480 in this home. And with this year, our big home project was landscaping the backyard. It looks 97 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:05,040 so good. So we spent a lot of money, a lot of time, a lot of care and energy in doing that. And 98 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:12,240 now we love it. We have this really big space to call our own. And we've got grass, and we've 99 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:18,800 got rocks and mulch and plants. So it feels really good to have a little oasis back there. 100 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:26,320 And man, this was a massive year for our relationship for Kyle and I, our marriage, 101 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:32,960 so much. So we found this amazing couple's therapist. This is our third one that we've 102 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:39,120 worked with, but she's by far the best. Of course, she doesn't accept insurance. So that was like 103 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:44,240 a hard pill to swallow, but we're like, it's so worth it. So if anyone else is out there, like kind 104 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:49,760 of deciding, you know, if they're already working with someone who does couples therapy or if they're 105 00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:57,200 trying to get into this route of really deepening and honing your communication skills and any 106 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:02,560 issues that you have really, it can benefit literally any and every couple. Because there's 107 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:09,360 just so much to learn and having someone kind of highlight the shadows and mostly what you're 108 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:15,760 doing really well is so validating. So that's been incredible. We've worked on our relationship so 109 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:21,680 much. We've worked on finances together, our viewpoints, our perspectives and how to come 110 00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:30,480 together and have a deeper level of understanding on that. Sex has been a big one for us, just like 111 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:38,400 how to after 12 years of being together, like how to continue having strong levels of intimacy, 112 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:46,560 which, whoo, there's so much you can do, so much you can learn. And kids was really a big 113 00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:52,480 goal that I had for this year. I've shared on the podcast before how I've known that I want kids and 114 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:58,240 I've had that clarity for a really long time and how Kyle hasn't and he had like a very different 115 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:05,440 upbringing. And so his experience of arriving in that decision has been not as clear and straightforward 116 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:12,160 and it's taken a lot of therapy on his own, an individual therapy, as well as in our couple's 117 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:22,880 therapy. And just this past week, really, December, mid-December, we finally came to a decision. So 118 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:29,360 years in the making, Kyle has decided, I'm so excited to share, that he wants to have kids. So 119 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:35,360 things are feeling really clear and just so grounded now in our relationship and everything 120 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:41,840 has just gotten so much easier now that we have this massive potential roadblock for our futures 121 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:49,920 moved away. And it was really hard, really dark, really low points this year together. And I'm just 122 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:56,080 elated, like no words to share how at peace I am now that we've come out the other side together. 123 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:03,120 And this whole process has been incredibly painful, but it's also brought us stronger together. So 124 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:10,640 amazing communication skills. I just kind of feel like we're at this all time high after being at 125 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:16,320 this all time low, literally weeks ago. So it's been like a lot, but really looking forward to 126 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:22,800 looking forward to just holding where we are now for as long as we can. And knowing that there will 127 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:28,800 be hard times in the future and that all the work that we've done won't go away. Like healing is 128 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:36,240 not linear. So just keeping all that in mind too. And we had a car crash in late October, which was 129 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:43,600 really scary and really crazy and brought up a lot of stuff. But like it actually ended up on the 130 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:49,680 better. It ended up better than it was before because we got more money for a new car or insurance 131 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:55,840 premium. Yeah, it's gone up. But insurance also sent my friend who was in the crash with us, Margie, 132 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:04,880 $1,000. And she wasn't injured. So she just gets to use that on rent. So it's great. During a 133 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,960 transition, she's going through too. So glad you're okay. It was scary. It was so scary. Yeah, 134 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:15,840 that's a whole story. But yeah. And then for me, myself kind of in this home category, I had a 135 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:24,080 coming out of my own coming out of coming in. I don't know. Oh man, yeah. And like April, May of 136 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:31,760 this year, I had this realization as we were working on our sexuality in couples therapy that I 137 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:38,160 myself like have this attraction to women and that I'm by and just kind of grappling with what 138 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:45,360 that means because yeah, I am married and in a monogamous relationship that won't be opened anytime 139 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:52,480 soon. And so just grappling with like, okay, the grief of never being able to explore that and 140 00:15:53,360 --> 00:16:00,560 just like being okay with that really. So processing through all of that and getting to decide like 141 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:08,400 what this means for me as a person and being able to like embrace this queer side of me. And then 142 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,720 also have feelings that like, yeah, I kind of wish this wasn't here because my life was a lot more 143 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:20,560 convenient and easy before this realization. So a lot in the home category for me too. We had so 144 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:27,280 many so many of this was like woven in with parallels to it was really wild. I think we both 145 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:36,080 had to learn so much about like, yeah, sitting with feelings, sitting with like communication 146 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:44,000 and like a completely different way, holding space for just layers of subconscious stuff coming up 147 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:51,840 like, whoo, a lot. So much. It was yeah, it's always nice being cats journeys are always 148 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:57,520 complimenting in the ways that it needs to be to hold like really beautiful space for each other. And 149 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:05,520 yeah, we've needed a lot of that this year and it's been crazy. All right, and then shifting 150 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:11,360 into the mind mode. I feel like we need a deep breath to cleanse home. Yeah, I love that. 151 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:18,720 I could use it. That was our biggest one. Yeah, that was a big one. Yeah. All right, sweet, nice, 152 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:37,920 tall, seat deep breath in out. Yes. Yes, mind. Yeah, this category, I think had a lot of like 153 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:44,560 really beautiful energy behind it. Like looking at mental health, I could categorize it as 154 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:56,160 completely chaotic. But honestly, I am so grateful that I actually experience the things that come 155 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:03,360 up to such a fuller degree that I don't even really want to label it as chaotic because it was. But 156 00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:11,280 it also I've fought like hell to be able to shift my perspective, shift my mindset, sit with more 157 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:18,640 feelings. And you know, even if it felt really intense at times and some of that blends into 158 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:27,840 like body, I also feel like I really gave so much space because of just the mental growth that I've 159 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:37,200 had. So there was just a ton of mindset shifts. I felt very vulnerable this year, like very exposed. 160 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:45,200 Nothing felt, yeah, I wouldn't say that it was all like met with like full confidence, but it was 161 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:50,720 just kind of a witnessing and a watching of a lot of layers of myself kind of just being 162 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:57,680 worked through because I had so much perspective change with all of the shifts happening. But 163 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:04,640 I think mentally I held like, yeah, I held space for the uncertainty. I watched it. I, you know, 164 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:11,840 I think I stayed pretty reflective throughout a lot. I read 50 books this year. So my head got 165 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:18,400 lots of information. And that was really fun too. I've been kind of getting back into fantasy, 166 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:24,560 not just I love learning still. So I read a lot of nerdy books too. But yeah, it was nice to kind 167 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:31,920 of explore going into fantasy at times too, and just letting myself like daydream and think through 168 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:37,840 different things and giving space for wild thinking. And books are such a catalyst for me for, 169 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:45,040 yeah, every book I read, I feel like it kind of like I parallel it through so much of my life. 170 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:52,960 And Kat and I got kind of nerdy and reading. Yeah, medical intuitive, psychic medical intuition. 171 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:59,120 We went down some like, yeah, fun like learning so we can keep integrating more levels of our 172 00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:04,480 our healer selves and our psychic selves. And that's been really kind of fun too. 173 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:14,240 And then yeah, I'm still making lots of content. I do creative content. I have, I made it to 160,000 174 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:22,000 followers on TikTok. And it's good in my mental like brain. I have, you know, such an entrepreneurial 175 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:27,120 spirit that's never going to go away. And it was just nice to keep building momentum on that, 176 00:20:27,120 --> 00:20:33,120 even through all the changes, I have like a really steady goal of like where I want to keep taking 177 00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:40,880 my virtual stuff and all the little, yeah, all the little avenues of business stuff is just always 178 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:48,080 good. And it was on the forefront. I had some pretty crazy shifts I had, I almost ended up on a Netflix 179 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:55,600 show, which was wild to hold space for because I was like in the final meeting with executive 180 00:20:55,600 --> 00:21:01,440 producers. So that ended up falling through, but it was still such a journey to see like what my 181 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:08,320 mindset does when there's like huge angst and then nothing you can really do about it. That was kind 182 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:16,960 of like a theme. And yeah, just like kind of realizing that I have to just keep embodying what I 183 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:22,960 want. And then the things will come, you know, as they come. And if it moves forward, it's meant 184 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:28,160 to move forward if it goes a different direction it's meant to. But just like letting my mindsets 185 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:34,880 really be fully centered around just the growth that I want, the deeper healing that I want, 186 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:41,920 and being okay, even if that mindset is sometimes a little chaotic and not easy to grasp. And I 187 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:50,640 think I really like kind of played that dance this year. Yeah. So good. Yeah, lots of growth, man. 188 00:21:50,640 --> 00:22:00,800 Yeah. So mine for me was super interesting. I marked a year and a half of being off of 189 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:08,960 hormonal birth control. And with that, I felt such a massive shift in pretty much every area of my 190 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:15,120 life. Like I had no idea how how strongly I was affected by those hormones that were artificially 191 00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:20,480 in my body for 15 years. But they really did like shape a lot of my personality, a lot of my 192 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:28,720 energy, a lot of even my attraction, like that realization of being by like that came this year 193 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:37,200 after my hormones started to settle out. Truly, like it has been not even a full year of having a 194 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:44,400 normal cycle. It's been, I don't know, like six months at this point of having a normal healthy 195 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:53,760 hormone cycle. And so much has changed. My moods, like I have more feelings now, which we've learned 196 00:22:53,760 --> 00:23:00,400 in love. I have more feelings now. And now it's actually, it's a good thing, of course, but like 197 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:07,520 it's not as comfy. It's not as easy. It's inconvenient saying, you know what? Exactly. 198 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:13,200 Exactly. But it's actually like, in terms of my relationship with Kyle, my husband, like it's 199 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:18,160 actually really helped that because he naturally is such a strong feeler, I'm a little cancer, I 200 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:25,760 always say. And it's kind of helped remove like gaps with us in our relationship, because I can just 201 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:32,880 more easily meet him where he's at, and he can understand and hear like the hard things that 202 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:39,120 are happening for me without having to dig for them, because they're just more available to me 203 00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:46,720 and more present. So I always used to joke how I was like the steadiest person and I was, but it 204 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:54,240 was artificial. Unfortunately, it had a little like muting from the hormones. So now it's just 205 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:58,800 like it's taken the veil off, it's taken that layer off, and it's just very present and real 206 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:07,840 and authentic. So another thing this year is I've practiced a lot of self advocacy. So at work is 207 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:13,680 probably like the biggest area of that, like holding boundaries, asking for bonus structures, 208 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:19,600 holding to it, and holding to like the hours that'll work, the things I'm willing to do, 209 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:26,560 the things I'm not. So this just comes from like a really strong sense of self worth, which I'm 210 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:32,240 so grateful to have and it's just a result. It's not like how they get it. Exactly. It's a result 211 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:39,440 of all the hard freaking work that I've had to do to get here and will continue to do. So yeah, 212 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:48,640 that self advocacy in my relationships, like asking for what I need, sharing how I'm feeling in the 213 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:55,120 moment without letting it build up and then having a little like outburst, when I've reached my max. 214 00:24:55,120 --> 00:25:02,000 So all those big things, listening still to lots of self help books, like Jen said, 215 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:08,320 I'm a big audible girly. So whenever I walk my dog, I'm constantly listening and taking in 216 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:15,760 different stimuli in terms of like, we're air science. Can you tell? We do. You tell? The input 217 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:24,960 is unreal. Taking in learning growing all the time. Yeah, so couple books, couple podcasts, 218 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:30,640 it's just feeding my soul in all the good ways. But I feel like I'm sensing it might be time for a 219 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:37,440 little bit of fiction. Yeah, let me give you my fairy smut. I know, I think I'm ready. Everyone's 220 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:44,480 telling me in the fairy smut and like, bring it on. Here we go. It's time. I'm ready. Yeah, 221 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:52,720 right? Yeah. So also this year has been a lot of like deepening beautiful friendships. It hasn't 222 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:59,040 been a lot of like new friendship forming kind of on purpose, which might sound bad, but it's not. 223 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:07,840 It's like noticing how much energy I have and how I do have tons of energy, but I want to reserve 224 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:15,600 that energy for the people who I have in my life, who I love so much in developing these friendships 225 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:22,080 and growing them. It's been such a highlight of this year and seeing which ones, you know, naturally 226 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:29,520 grow and strengthen like ours, of course, consistently over time. And then which ones, you know, it's 227 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:35,760 like kind of take a turn and it's not like a intentional turn as much as it is just like 228 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:41,840 where we are in life and how that's okay. And that's actually really healthy and natural and normal. 229 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,880 And just like life relationships will ebb and flow too. So our little women's group here in 230 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:52,160 Denver gets a special little shout out because we've had so much fun this year. Murder mystery 231 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:58,480 party. We did group trip. It was like, it's just been really, really beautiful to watch the closeness 232 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:06,560 of that. The escape room party. Yeah, it's like such a safe, vulnerable space where we've all shared 233 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:12,800 and cried and held each other and held space in so many ways that like getting out and doing 234 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:17,600 things together has been a big theme of this year. So nice and fun. And then yeah, we had 235 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,720 Electric Forest. We had Burning Man, which I'll talk more about in Seoul. But in terms of Electric 236 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:28,960 Forest, we decided this is our last year of going for a little while, which is so sad. Like we had 237 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:33,840 to really get some closure this year at the festival. We just decided, you know, we've been eight years 238 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:40,800 and so much has happened. So much has changed for us. And the festival isn't changing as much as we 239 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:46,160 are. And so we just want as quickly, I should say, we just want a little bit of space in between now 240 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:52,000 and the next time we revisit to see what other magic they create there and allow that time and 241 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:59,840 space and funds to be put towards some newness. I love that. Yeah. All right. Breathing in and out 242 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:16,480 for mind. Yes. Inhale, mind, fill up with all that. Send it out, let it go. Nice. Yes. All right. 243 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:27,920 Into the body, we go. Yeah, body for me definitely had some good shifts too. So obviously with 244 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:35,600 being Polly and exploring new relationships and being in another partnership, like the layers of 245 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:42,800 learning my body in whole new ways has been so real. Lots of, which by the way, you guys love to 246 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:51,200 let's talk about sex episode. That one did really well in the season. And yeah, so much about learning 247 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:59,200 just more layers of my sexuality. And I think a huge thing for me is I'm pretty much sober. I do 248 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:09,920 not like I drink so, so rarely and California sober. Yeah. And you know, there was even just like, 249 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,640 there was a night that I was like, you know, I want to drink like there's going to be some more 250 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:20,000 vulnerability. And then I dropped the wine bottle and it shatters like everywhere. So like, I've just 251 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:26,400 been cut off that I'm just in a phase right now. Drinking is not happening. I can't use it to really 252 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:35,360 escape much. And so that's left me very exposed when it comes to exploring new sexuality, exploring 253 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:43,680 way different like variations of sex. And this has been like, yeah, there's been a lot of journey 254 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:51,280 on that and doing it sober and realizing how much of stuff I used to just do like so close to black 255 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:56,400 out because I didn't want to experience the vulnerability behind it and then adding in the 256 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:02,400 vulnerability behind it and realizing like, it's fucking scary to ask for things to be different. 257 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:08,880 It's scary to keep changing the script on what you do and don't do with your body to voice like 258 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:16,480 what feels good, what needs to shift like I unpack so many layers of that. So and also with me and 259 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:23,680 Kat like being the intellectualizers we are in my head, like I've always had to get creative to get 260 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:32,400 out of my head, but it's also been yeah, really important to realize just another layer of nervous 261 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:38,400 system regulation and how good I do with like feeling really emotionally safe. I think I use 262 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:48,400 to meet my sex, wild sex with just like such a lack of not just vulnerability, but yeah, 263 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:54,960 it was never really with super strong emotional connection. I really dipped out of emotion as 264 00:30:54,960 --> 00:31:01,600 much as I could for so long. So adding in those layers has been like, yeah, very exposing and 265 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:07,360 actually carving out time for myself to connect with my body and how important that is for 266 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:12,720 my own regulation and just being able to have a better inner compass of what my body is trying to 267 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:18,880 tell me means that I have to have carved out time for myself too and I've tried to get really good 268 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:26,320 about that this year to build a deeper language. And yeah, I have my happiness formula I've shared 269 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:34,720 that I think on here before too and it's so nice that I've like, it's so easy to take care of my 270 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:41,440 body and the like workout sense and just like keeping myself like strong and focusing on like 271 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,200 that is so locked in that it didn't falter with traveling and it just feels good that now what 272 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:53,520 used to be the hardest thing to get a rhythm with is now so in tune that that's not even it's 273 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:59,120 so automatic I guess and that's such a fucking gift because that was the hardest thing for so 274 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:06,320 much of my life having just so much wounding around my body image being overweight struggling 275 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:12,320 with so much of that when I was young that now having that like solid connection with my body is 276 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:19,440 just beautiful and yeah, I got a couple new tattoos that's changed in my body too. So that was fun. 277 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:27,440 Just another little layer is thinking about for it and yeah, thank you body. We have learned a lot 278 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:35,760 and it's been scary and we have done it so yeah. Yay, yay, body. Yay, body. I love it. We're in such 279 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:41,520 a good spot with our bodies and it's been quite a journey like you said. Yeah, it was a really good 280 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:50,560 year for me and my relationship with my body as well. I had a new movement modality come into my 281 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:59,200 life this year. Shuffling. I love your stuff. Oh my gosh, it's so fun and it's very much still 282 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:06,560 like it's still new to me and it's so fun to be learning and back in the seat of the student and 283 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:13,920 it's very humbling because you know, practice like yoga. I've been practicing for 10, 11 years now. 284 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:19,600 I've been teaching for almost 10 years and you know, it's like you start to be like, okay, this is 285 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:26,240 my 1000th downward facing dog or you know, Godfacts, whatever. I wish we could actually know that. 286 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:34,880 Wild. Think about all the time. How many has I done? Yeah, but it's great to just experience 287 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:40,160 like things that are hard and things that are newer and different and that's what this has been for me 288 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:47,920 and it's so fun for me to just be able to whip it out at all the shows I go to and I just, it brings 289 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:53,920 it brings me so much joy. I'm constantly like giggling and laughing while I'm doing it and 290 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:59,680 learning on YouTube and just all sorts of different videos. There's its endless amounts of things to 291 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:06,560 learn and practice. So it's here to stay. It's my cardio workout, which feels really, really good. 292 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:13,840 So that's been a fun new modality for me. Still practicing yoga and teaching, still doing pilates 293 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:19,040 and kickboxing videos here and there. So keeping it fresh, walking a couple times a day. It just 294 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:27,600 feels like a really good rotation of movement activities. So feeling my cup feels really good. 295 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:33,920 I might kind of mentioned before how my hormone cycles normal now. Healthy hormones, my energy 296 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:40,160 levels are really good. I can tell I'm super in sync with my body now when I know my periods 297 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:46,480 coming. Like my luteal phase, it's so fun to just be in communication with my partner about this too. 298 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:51,760 Like it's a luteal phase and he knows what that means. Like he knows I might get a little cranky 299 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:57,840 and to not take it personally. He knows to be a little bit gentler with me. He knows that I'm 300 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:04,320 going to be more tired. And so maybe we just like plan less on those weekends when I'm in this phase 301 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:12,320 and stay in and just like have fun with that. So yeah, he also, this is really funny, but 302 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:17,840 instead of calling ovulation like ovulation when we know that's the time when you're like 303 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:25,360 super confident, kind of horny, not kind of very like your skin's glowy. It's like you're very 304 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,680 energized. Instead of calling it ovulation, he calls it the booty old face. 305 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,360 Cause it's booty time. 306 00:35:36,720 --> 00:35:43,360 So we got the booty on the luteal phase. I love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's been super fun 307 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:49,600 to like, you know, get close over and just have in communication. I love that. And then I also got 308 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:56,480 two new tattoos this year. After like I hadn't gotten a tattoo since 2015, this is my first 309 00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:02,320 and I got two this year. So I don't know. I love them. Yeah. Thank you. I got one to honor the 310 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:07,680 lights and one to honor the dark. I love that. And the dark is also a best friend tattoo with my 311 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:13,520 bestie back home in Massachusetts. So that's the sweetness that it's a snake. And it was also the 312 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:19,040 day that we got into a car crash together and we're like, Oh, a rebirth signal. Oh, 313 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,720 shit. Is it the snake? Like what do we just do? And then we're like, no, no, no, no, it's a good thing. 314 00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:31,040 Every birth cycle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, let's breathe it out. Breathe it out. All right. Inhale for love. 315 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:33,840 Release. 316 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:49,760 All right. And then final category, soul, spirit. Yeah. I mean, this category 317 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:58,560 so much kind of like, yeah, comes with everything else combined, just I always can zoom out and 318 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:06,400 see such spiritual meaning behind what I'm learning. And I, in this point of my awakening, see so much 319 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:12,000 adversity and problems as being just like the universe's gift to help me unpack another layer 320 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:19,920 of myself. Nothing ever feels deeply personal. It's always kind of a beautiful co-creating with 321 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:27,040 the universe. So everything kind of feels very spiritual to me. But yeah, it was really fun. I 322 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:34,480 think I with kind of us reading more about medical intuition and stuff and always kind of fine 323 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:39,760 tuning psychic gifts, we had some, yeah, some of our guest episodes kind of went into some of that 324 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:46,160 as well. And I really did a lot of play when I was taking the train in Chicago on like feeling 325 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:51,120 what my body would feel like and then looking over at someone, I can see auras around people like so 326 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:57,280 much clearer now and just being able to see auras and also then see what shifts in my own body. 327 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:02,320 And then practicing re-centering and then re-clearing. I just did a lot of like play with 328 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:08,000 that on the train since I was taking the train like an hour and a half each day. It was like this 329 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:16,080 little just kind of fun energy game I gave myself. I had some really beautiful mushroom 330 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:23,280 experiences this year that have been, yeah, I feel like we unlocked a portal in February 331 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:28,720 with our women's group one. Oh, that was last December. Yeah, so leading up to this year. Yeah, 332 00:38:28,720 --> 00:38:36,720 that was crazy. And then yeah, the layers of, yeah, trip healing is always such a thing and 333 00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:44,480 you can see it so much more in retrospect and I love that. I was supposed to lead a retreat 334 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:50,560 in February that ended up falling through and me and my co-creator Phoenix ended up going to our 335 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:57,120 Airbnb anyway. And we had just a really, really spiritual experience just creating virtual content 336 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:04,800 in that space. And yeah, we created the interview program that gives you like a guided inner child, 337 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:11,680 inner teen and inner 20s healing and then how to integrate it and just making that program was so 338 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:18,080 healing as we were like clearing our own. It ended up being so deeply personal and beautiful. 339 00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:26,320 Lots of emotional release. Me and Kat had our witch retreat in New Orleans and it was so 340 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:33,200 beautiful. Our group was amazing. It always is magic every single time and I was so grateful for 341 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:38,560 that space and I really needed that circle and space at that time just going through 342 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:46,000 heartbreak and just lots of layers of things and that was just really, the retreats are just such a 343 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:51,680 circle for whatever the needs are of the whole group. It ends up being such a bigger guided 344 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:58,240 experience than even just Kat and I. You get so much deeper assistance and that's beautiful. And 345 00:39:58,240 --> 00:40:06,240 then very recently I had a healing, light language healing session with Christina who we've had on the 346 00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:13,440 podcast and I have a new Ascendant Master working with me as a close guide that came through and 347 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:20,240 that was a really, really powerful session. I know like that was the seat of a lot of change and 348 00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:26,960 shift too. So yeah, that was kind of my top spirit category moments. Love it. Love to hear 349 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:34,160 it. Big things. Yeah. Yeah. For me, I was thinking all the way back to New Year's Day this year and 350 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:41,280 I led a super special workshop on New Year's Day at Nurture and we did a dynamic meditation. It was 351 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:47,760 sold out. It was a packed house with like 25 people and it was just really, really incredible and 352 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:53,920 just like the takeaways and the energy and like the gifts I got from that day were just, it was 353 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:58,880 awesome to kick off the air from that really mindful space and it's hilarious because the word 354 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:05,440 that I actually set for this year was peace and when I think back, I'm like, I was in a very different 355 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:10,320 mind space when I created that. I was like, you know, I think I was in a very grounded place and I 356 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:16,000 was just wanting more of that, but in reality it's like not my soul's journey of what my soul 357 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,640 actually needed this year to be. And so about halfway through the year, I had that reflection 358 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:27,760 moment and I was like, no, peace isn't serving me this year. This year's about exploring, exploring 359 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:35,360 my inner workings, exploring the psychedelic realm, exploring new spaces, relationships, 360 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:42,080 all the things, sexuality. So it was cool because like I'd never done that before. I had that 361 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:48,640 midway through the year empowered moment of like, you know what, nah, like reset, here's what it is 362 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:54,240 and that felt really, really good. So I'm going to continue to make that like a little mid-year 363 00:41:54,240 --> 00:41:59,040 check-in of like, how is this going? Is this still in alignment or do we need to shake it up 364 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:06,800 and not feeling any guilt around doing that? So that was fun. Also, a big thing of this year for 365 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:13,760 me spiritually was going to Burning Man. It taught me so much resiliency, not just on a physical 366 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:21,200 level of dealing with discomfort and mud and rain and heat and dust, but also like even more on the 367 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:28,880 inside of the emotional, spiritual, like, you know, you have to be so open for that experience. 368 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:35,280 And the more open you are, the more you can just be in the seat of surrender and receiving 369 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,880 what's meant for you, like the more easeful and enjoyable and impactful it's going to be. 370 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:47,280 So that's what I did. That's what I got. It was so fun. I went out of this fucking world, 371 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:53,280 journeyed to outer space, came back multiple times in a week. Portal potty. 372 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,480 Hashtag portal potty. We're just going to leave that there. 373 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:05,280 Amazing. Yeah, I emerged from a porta potty one night with a life altering 374 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:11,520 realization. And I still think back to him like, damn, that was deep. Okay, portal potty. 375 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:20,480 Oh my gosh, I love it. Yeah. So that was amazing, crazy, powerful healing takeaways that I've 376 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:27,680 still been integrating since August. Amazing. And then the Akashic Records course that I'm in 377 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:35,760 right now, it's a self guided five week course. And I'm learning how to access my own Akashic Records. 378 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,920 And it's so special. It's actually, if you remember, Jen Hoffman, we've had her on the 379 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:45,760 podcast twice. She's amazing. We had her on this season about talking, talking about birth as a 380 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:52,320 portal. And she also has read, Jenna's records, she's read a lot of the records of our friends 381 00:43:52,320 --> 00:44:01,200 and clients. And so the course that I'm participating in right now was created by Jen's teacher, 382 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:06,320 Rita, who is wonderful. And I'm actually going to have my records read by her as well, 383 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:14,880 I think in a week or two on the 28th or something. So excited for that. And my goal and intention 384 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:21,680 with this is to get super comfortable being in the Akashic, understanding my own records, and then, 385 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:28,240 hopefully, if it feels aligned, be able to offer readings to others and be of support in that way 386 00:44:28,240 --> 00:44:35,920 when accessing kind of that realm and seeking insights. Very excited for that. Jen mentioned 387 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:42,000 our retreats. Our retreat in New Orleans was freaking amazing. It was a dream come true. I love 388 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:49,680 Nola so much. Our group was amazing, just like the witchy magic cultivated. I'll never forget it. 389 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:55,440 And then I also led a retreat in Idaho Springs. It was my first solo in-person retreat earlier this 390 00:44:55,440 --> 00:45:02,480 year in March or April now. I'm like, I need to look back at the dates. I think it was April. And 391 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:09,120 ugh, it was just so beautiful too. A lot of the same girlies at both retreats and they become 392 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:16,240 family. So yeah, power of retreats. More to come on that. We're already planning our next witchy one, 393 00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:22,240 which will reveal sometime early in the new year to give lots of time to plan and save up. But 394 00:45:22,240 --> 00:45:30,240 we're super excited about this next destination. It has been requested for some time. So just you 395 00:45:30,240 --> 00:45:37,600 wait and hear on our Instagram is the best way to listen. Awaken Together podcast on Instagram. 396 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:45,040 Then yeah, I continued my morning rituals with my morning meditation, my walk, connecting with 397 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:49,600 myself. It was a little bit less consistent this year than it had been in other years. But 398 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:57,360 I'm giving myself grace with that and realizing that that's okay. There's something to sitting 399 00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:03,680 down in Sadhana every morning near spiritual practice. And then there's also understanding when 400 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:10,640 it needs to just flow with you in life. So that's been really nice this year too. And a space for 401 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:16,240 me to continually come home to myself each day, start the day off with presence and awareness 402 00:46:16,240 --> 00:46:20,800 with whatever that looks like for the day and looking forward to continuing that in the new 403 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:36,480 year. I love it. All right, final breath. Let's do it. Yeah. Inhale. Out. Beautiful. 404 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:47,360 Yeah, so as you do your own journaling for these four categories, you can not only do a review of 405 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:53,520 2023, but also take another separate page, write these words down again and just look to the year 406 00:46:53,520 --> 00:47:00,480 ahead in that same sort of spirit. We won't go through all of our own personal, but we did some 407 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:08,320 of our own reflection. And yeah, I'm really looking to 2024 to be just a year of fully embodying my 408 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:15,840 knowing and trusting my knowing and integrating a lot of knowledge and stuff that has come in and 409 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:21,520 just like, yeah, sitting kind of inward in that knowing as well. So knowing is kind of feeling 410 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:27,840 like my word. Anything coming for you, Kat? Yeah, the word that I'm chewing on right now is trust. 411 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:36,080 Trust in myself, trust in the process, trust in the divine timing of the universe and my life. 412 00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:42,000 So trust is what's feeling really good for me right now. We'll see you after a little bit more 413 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:49,200 journaling and these last couple moments of the year if that's what really solidifies it. So 414 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:59,440 more to come. Yeah, so we will be starting our season six in February. And we also, if you want 415 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:06,240 to check out our Instagram in January, January 1st, we're going to be sharing some stuff on our page, 416 00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:13,200 doing a little giveaway. So check it out. We like to do stuff kind of in between seasons and it's 417 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:18,320 your time to catch up so that you're ready for season six. We already have some really powerful 418 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:25,520 episodes lined up and yeah, we're excited just to keep this journey going. Thank you for spending 419 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:31,520 some time in reflection with us, hearing our journeys and supporting us along the way. And 420 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:36,800 we really hope that 2024 is a beautiful year for you with all, it meets you with all the things 421 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:45,120 that you need. That's right. And the good thing is astrologers and numerologists, everyone saying 422 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:49,920 that this was a really big year for transformation and growth and there was going to be some hardship 423 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:56,960 with that, right? And 2024 they're saying is going to be a bit more easeful. There is a lot of 424 00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:02,400 collective shift that we had to kind of go through to sit in a different sort of power coming into 425 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:08,960 what's coming. Like as you can feel in the collective, like there's been a lot with this war 426 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:14,480 and all of the stuff, like there's been a lot of personal development that was needing to happen 427 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:20,000 to step into power so we can continue to shift stuff for the better. And by embodying our own 428 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:26,000 journeys, it ripples into the collective. It's all one in the same as we have shared on here many 429 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:30,880 at times. So yeah, I think we all had to dig a little deeper this year into some of the hardship 430 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:37,040 to be able to really integrate and step into truth and power and knowing for 2024. 431 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:42,960 That's right. That's right. Yeah. The numbers 2024 add up to eight. And I remember learning 432 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:50,240 that that's like super abundant and it's a really positive number. So all the stars are lining up 433 00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:54,480 for it to be a great year. And you know what? It's going to be a great year. Yes, I love it. 434 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:59,760 We're saying it's going to be a great year. So it is. Yes. That's right. That's right. 435 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:06,000 We love you all so much. And please let us know if you have any requests for the new year. Keep 436 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:25,440 in touch with us on Instagram and we'll see you in 2024. Thank you. Bye.
