Hola, hello Amplifyou family Michelle Abraham, your host here today. And I am excited to bring you a behind the mic interview. Actually, it's probably more like an ask the expert interview or a little bit of both. We're gonna do both today. How about that? I have Agnes pitch kita with me today. And I was so excited that you're here with me, you're all about helping our spiritual entrepreneurs get more visibility in their business, helping them step out into the world and embrace that woowoo side of that, which I know that's a lot of our audience. So I'm excited to talk to you today. You're an intuitive Business Coach, and we're so excited to dive into this topic with you today. How are you doing?

Hi Michelle, I'm good. And thank you for having me here. I'm very excited to be here today.

You are so welcome. And so I'm curious, did your interest in helping spiritual entrepreneurs start with your own spiritual journey of you tapping into your own intuition in business? Or was that just something that kind of evolved over time, I would love to know where that started from.

Yeah, so I think it started for me, it started probably with my own journey into my embracing my intuition, embracing mentors, gifts, becoming an energy healer. And that started with a deep, deep desire to help people, I was kind of coming off of a couple of years of like, depression and, and feeling like, I don't know what my purpose is. And I was working in corporate at the time, and I felt trapped, because I didn't know like, I didn't feel like I could find my place in the corporate world. It just felt everything felt like I was like a very tiny cog in a huge machine making no difference at all. And that was, for me, I think that was kind of like the heartbeat of who I am, is I need to make a difference. I need to feel like I'm making a difference. Even if it's in a in a you know, in a single person's life. throughout my lifetime. That's, that's good. That's already amazing. So that was, that was where I was searching for that. And on my journey, I found my intuitive gifts, I found a deep love for people and for their for helping them V find themselves embrace their true selves. Because the way I work I work a lot with with energy. And I do energy scans. And every time I do an energy scan, I get to touch someone sold. And there is no way you couldn't love someone after shift touch their soul. It's it's so like, it's it's impossible, these two things, they just happen naturally. So I think through my own journey, and you know, it took it took a while I started this journey over 10 years ago. So and for me this this naturally led to, you know, connecting with other people who are also spiritual entrepreneurs. And we would share you know, we would do like swap swapping sessions and helping each other with our businesses and, and helping each other with our fears and doubts and things like that. And I realized oh my god, as virtual entrepreneurs, we are a special breed of people because it's like we bringing wonderful gifts to the world. But we also have there isn't really ready space for you as a spiritual entrepreneurs, you have to make a space for yourself in the business world, in the human world because it's kind of like bringing two different worlds into into one and then that that kind of like it takes sometimes I think it takes more courage to really be yourself to say yes, I am an energy healer, I am an intuitive, and I do business. Right. Yeah, it's it's because historically, these two things don't they didn't match. They were in completely opposite side of the spectrum. And they were kind of like the opposites of each other like, you know, spiritual person and a business person generally didn't have anything in common.

They have well I was lucky for us. We've like been working with people with higher consciousness, I think and so more and more of our clients have come I want to say it coming out of Spiritual closet in the business. A lot of us have already, like always had it in us and we've always got intuition and business. We just haven't really been that like public about it.

Yeah, exactly. I think we live in an amazing time where we can be all and and also be very good at what we do and you know, help with practical things on the world.

I think that's the fear is that people don't I know, I think that's the fear. I've heard from several creators that the fear of not being taken seriously once they start hanging that the spiritual flag in your business. And I think that's an we're so lucky that we're in the time and age that we are right now where that's because love of this society and business to follow your intuition and wind and be in purpose with your soul's purpose. And the more successful you will be when you have those things in alignment

Yeah. Oh, absolutely. I completely agree. Yeah, it's

Interesting. So I know we and we, Braden and I had this funny talk with ourselves early on in the amplifying like space, we're like, what we're what are we doing here? Like we kind of, we want to be like the Hay House, a podcast ticking. So be for those who were listening, coming to LC houses, but it's like, it's like the spiritual like, it's thought leaders. Publishing publishing house, Louise Hay started it many years ago. And it's got, you know, so many spiritual authors that you know, talks about all sorts of things intuitive in business and all that. And, you know, as soon as we did, we sent her to charging all the people that are including some of their authors, which I think is really cool. The next person through our door was, had one of their authors on the first podcast, I think. really careful what you put out there, right? Because it really Yeah, the universe always responds. Yeah. So we, we've witnessed our clients, using intuition in business and using their spiritual gifts and business. And it's been so cool to see. But now I know, like maybe for our listeners, that's not the norm. So can you share with us? Like, how do you start using your spiritual gifts in business? If you're, you know, you know, you have some, but you don't you haven't kind of mixed the two together yet? And also that how do you use them with your clients? Yeah,

Yeah. So I think for anyone who was kind of like, curious about how their intuition could serve them in business, one of the probably one of the easiest way to use your intuition as if you have kind of two two choices before you. And then just really listening to your gut. It's, you know, the gut instinct, the what's the first like, what's the first feeling is a yes or no? Which one? Like, is this a yes? Or is that a yes? Or none of Adama? Yes. Or both of you? Yes. So it's it's kind of like just allowing yourself a moment to, to hear that response, that initial response. And then actually following it through and not allowing your your rational mind to out rationalize it. Just just persuade you to not do that, because he tacky. Yeah. It's like all the rest of the probably don't do this for something that is like has huge, huge consequences, like financial or otherwise, but maybe like a smaller business decision. And you know, where you can you have the space to play around. And you know, to kind of do this or that, and it's not going to have, you know, until you until you trust your intuition well enough to be able to use it on these like, meaning you make decisions, but actually, the big decisions usually have a very ego message inside of us. It's either a show Yes, or hell no. So yeah, I would say start there. This is, this is a really good place to start. I mean, also, if we if we go into like human design, a lot of a lot of people are generators. And for January, I'm a generator, and the sacral authority is strong. So it's a very strong. You. Yeah. Yeah. So that's, that's a good place to start. And it's, you know, and then, once you see you can also play around with like, small everyday things, you know, is it like apple one or orange? You know, what was my gut telling me? Which one do I need? More and that way, you build a muscle of trusting that in our authority, without needing a lot of arguments and a lot of justification of why usually, the why comes later, and the understanding of why why this was the better choice. Kind of like hindsight gives you that understanding.

Yeah, do you so I've heard a few from a few different clients. I will first of all, what am I what do I this was coaches. She did a really great kind of run through with me like why as a generator is so important to listen to your sacral. And to not make this not act on decisions, like within the first like 24 hours, so I actually sleep on them because as a generator, it's like, okay, that was the that's the answer and like, let's get to work on it. Still got a check in like a day later that that's still the accurate sir I was Yeah. Oh, that makes so much sense. All right thing like that I got that now and so for. So for some people, you know that checking in is like a sacral get feeling for other people. I've heard them do like an energetic, like, you know, if it's an apple or an orange, and then whatever way your body energetically that's

Like a Kinesiology test. Yeah, you can use your body.

You can use your muscle or has seen your body, you can use your pendulum, you can use all sorts of things. What's your what's the caveat to that?

Okay, the caveat to that is that the body test or the pendulum, unless you kind of like you consciously ask for the for the information, like, kind of for the test to show you your souls answer, and really have that connection that's going to show you what your subconscious believes they will just read. And your subconscious is a place where we keep all our fears and all our doubts and our limitations. They're just just kind of like being mindful of that. Yeah, it's a really good it's a really good test. But it's, it's a good thing. Okay, I'll tell you what I use muscle testing for, I used to test for limiting beliefs, l HSC. Because then, I, a lot of limiting beliefs are unconscious. So we know some of them, but we don't know a lot of them. And I kind of I always sort of, I pay attention to my speech patterns, or the attention to what I say not what I want to say. But what exactly what words come up. And that's part of how I work with my clients as I listen to them. People tell me a lot of their beliefs without really consciously thinking about what they believe but it's in comes out in their speech patterns. It comes out in like, sort of those Troy and slips and those kinds of things. And then once this, something like this, if I catch something like this, then I will do a muscle test and see, is this a belief I have? Or is it is it? You know? Is it just something I said? And it's not really stuck in my subconscious mind?

Oh that's fascinating. I like that. Yeah.

This is really helpful as I'm working with clients sometimes. Because for some of them working with me, maybe their first experience with anything that that's a little bit on the energy healing spiritual side, kind of like that deep intuition. And do any less. This is a very kind of clear, like, yes, it's there if, like, they they move their body in their body says yes. And it's there. And you know, I'm not just making this up, their body is still forming the forehead. Yeah. So, so yeah, so it's actually really helpful. But muscle testing has its own limits. So just being aware of that this, you know, because if she, if you get an answer from like, muscle testing, and it doesn't mean you sit well with you, it just means you probably picked up a limiting belief from your subconscious. Yeah,

That makes a lot of sense. Would you say that email, learning some of these skills would be really helpful in when doing sales. And I know, like, this is like the, the limiting belief of the spiritual entrepreneur group, even though because we're out there doing great things in the world, making an impact in the world, helping people that we shouldn't be being paid for. Or, you know, and it's one of those things that I you see that a lot where, you know, and it's also like, also in the health industry, right, and massage therapists and, you know, Reiki practitioners and people that are out there helping so how can we use this in our sales conversations or in our, in our in our just in our marketing

Well, okay, so I would say this is probably best used before you go into sales conversations or before you do your marketing stuff. It's the part where you do your inner work and I mean, coming from as a spiritual intrapreneur I'm very familiar with like, you know, doing great work in the world not getting paid. I call I call this the the standard healer, limiting belief package. That's like the hardest thing to like, we got to change. Yeah, how to hurt. Yeah, it's actually it's kind of an archetype But what a lot of us are here to change that. Exactly. So what is interesting is that sales conversations actually, from my experience, they're part of the kind of like the broader topic around visibility. And and it's, it's, it's allowing yourself to be seen in all of your glory and allowing the worst of what you offer should be fairly compensated. So there's kind of like, in my work, as I work with clients, we've kind of identified like the key pieces of where, where is that that kind of visibility block? Where where is it the biggest, you know, what's what's standing in your in your way with most? And sales conversations might be one of those, like, it might be exactly like the biggest, scariest piece, right? So then if we're talking about sales conversations, it's part of it is going to have to do what is your relationship with money? And making money and as a spiritual entrepreneur? How do you feel about the fact that you are making money with your guests? And and then this piece here, so shilling? And then there are some other pieces in it, but it's often I kind of identified almost like three sort of source resources for for why as spiritual entrepreneurs, we can be stuck in marketing and sales. One is our relationship with money. That one is a big one. Our another one is our relationship with the greater universe. Do we allow ourselves to be held? Do we allow ourselves to receive love Do we allow ourselves to, to receive support from the greater universe and then a lot of the times as much as virtual entrepreneurs have a beautiful connection with the universe and God and angels and whoever they're working with, it still was the source is the same. There might be a lot of invitations that we might have inherited, or created unconsciously about really allowing the universe to be there for us, and help us in everything we do. And then the last piece is actually our relationship with ourselves. And these are all the personal fears and doubts in my mind, am I good enough, I'm not good enough or worthy? Who am I? And all that all the stories of, of the traumas, and bullying, and you know, anything else that, you know, may come through and all like, collects and flows into business. So as you're, as you're trying to figure out your business left, you also have to do your personal stuff, right, and all that in a work. So then the business stuff blows easier, right?

And all three of those things are super important. And I would say I would guess to say that most people that are healers and working in that space, have become healers, because they've done their own work to start with and see the impact and seeing the powerfulness of it. But yet, I would go out into the wild. And I know this is one, the one that I struggle with the most year, although giving and giving back and helping other people in receiving part is is a challenge.

Isn't the standard healer package. Right? Exactly. Yeah, give I'm not here to receive.

Exactly. And I think also too, like they would, the more in alignment you are, the easier and the more flow it is and you're then you're being compensated for doing things that are really easy for you. So which I think plays a little bit of a devil's advocate for some people who are used to that traditional marketing or that or grew up with that. Like we work hard for our money kind of mentality that really sticks around with our head when we're doing something that's so easy for us to do that we're getting paid for it. And like this system feel like work is so fun. I wake up every day, which is where you want to be but that app like but wait, I didn't just do this for free, because this is so much fun. Yeah,

I shouldn't be doing this. But another another part, I think for spiritual entrepreneurs, because this comes from like, it doesn't often our work doesn't, doesn't really often come from like, you know, like a skill like I don't know, engineering, for example, you know, I've studied for so many years, I've gained the skill, I've earned it, or intuitive give him a degree. Yeah, I have a degree, you know, very difficult. I don't know if there exists a degree for like intuitive ability. It's a gift. And then it feels like well, it was a gift, how can I charge money for using it? That's something that I didn't earn, in quotation marks. And then while the answer is kind of what how, how I came to an answer for this question for me, because I struggled with it myself. What's important is that the gift is not only for others, it's for me as well. And you know, the universe or the Creator gave me this gift, so I could use it for me as well as others. And for me, in a sense that I can help myself but also that it is a way for me to make a living and to make money and to bring abundance into my life. So that then can be amplified and the people around me can also join in that in that abundance field. So the fact that you are have been given a gift doesn't mean you have to give it away. Right? That means you have to, that's kind of what happens, we discover, I discovered that I have a gift and that, oh, I have to give it away to someone, I can't keep it, then that's not fair. Because, you know, the universe gave you like a gift for it. Right?

So use it. So for those listening right now that are maybe like, I don't know what my gift is? Or do I? Did I get a spiritual gift? I don't know. So what would you say to those people in the audience right now that are maybe unsure of their gifts? Okay,

I would say everybody has spiritual gifts. It its, but it's more like, either it's either a trained muscle or an untrained muscle. So if it's untrained, you will be unconscious of it. Or you might see very, very small glimpses of it. So for example, before because I wasn't like, I wasn't born, I wasn't like a child psychic, or anything like that. That wasn't that was my gift didn't come to me until I think I was probably like, 28. And, but the small glimpses of it, for example, there was a time where my boyfriend was telling me we were both in a job search situation. And he was telling me about, like, Oh, I was invited to go to this interview, but it's far, like, I'm not sure if I'm gonna go. And I had such a strong feeling like, you have to go to that interview. And I kind of told her, luckily, she was open enough to my kind of intuitive insights. So I was like, I have a good feeling about this, you should go like, I know, it's a bit inconvenient, but just just go and actually, he went, and he got a job. And that job changed his whole career. Oh, wow. Like, like, kind of a trajectory of where life was, was able to go in that in that time. So yeah, I mean, it came out in these kind of like, small instances. But it's, it's more just a matter of, of finding a way to, to activate the gifts. And to like, train that muscle a little bit. And there are many, many different modalities that help you do that. What helped for me was a modality called Theta Healing. And it will really allow me to very gently, very lovingly connect to all of my intuitive gifts, and practice them and train them and feel safe doing that. But anything that calls to you, you know, kind of another another really good way to know more about what kind of intuitive gifts you out is actually getting an Akashic Records reading, because I do those as well. And I experienced mine, I think, in 2018. And I was like, oh, where was this information with? My gifts and all of that, because I already knew a lot from kind of going through on my own journey of exploration. But that is very helpful just because it gives you like, okay, you know, the, the universal ripe library of everything that is telling me that I have a gift of intuition, or a gift of empathy in this specific area. So maybe I should explore it some

So good and actually learn. It's really interesting that your business has its own Akashic records, too. So yes, you start a business. And so it's interesting. Going through transition, just recently, I've gotten from one business to another, letting go of one business at it was it was interesting checking in with the records on that because it's like, yeah, okay, it's time for you to let it go and let someone else take it on. And yeah, that's really cool. Yeah, I love learning about the Akashic records. I took a soul care certification with dn rendu, who's one of our podcasters and it was fascinating to be able to tap into that. And it's funny, I don't use it as often as I should, I should be opening them right. In more often, I always forget to do it. It's one of those things that yeah, that's that gift is there to be able to be accessed and accessed. And I always forget about it.

Yeah, yeah, I call it that your business has a soul. And and you know, that soul has a desire to be expressed in a certain way. And then it's almost like your business can be a partner in conversation, I actually have a process that I teach my clients where they can kind of go into like a meditative visualization and sit with the solo their business and have a conversation and also invite their ideal clients into that space. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's a wonderful experience. It's also kind of like it's, it's fun, it's playful, but it gives you a lot of information and a lot of guidance and then also shows you a lot of the blocks and the limitations and the kind of like what's standing in your way from taking the next step and

Interesting yeah, just saying that reminds me, I have not gotten into the cache records of my new business. So it's Hi vibe leader. So that would probably be a really important. And that whole program to that whole business is completely downloaded to me. So I really, really should check in with, like, Kashuk records. Yes, it's

Like, it's very easy to forget, it's gonna like even for for all of us who have like intuitive tools, right? It's sometimes you just get stuck in this like, mundane stuff and problems and solutions and action. And then you forget that you have the tools to do it. Right.

And you know, you like you're trying so hard, or you're working so hard. And you're like, you know, pushing, pushing, pushing. It's like, Wait a second. We know that a better way of doing this. more naturally. That's those feats. Yes. Even though they keep remembering, I have to keep reminding myself of that, even though I'm surrounded by it all the time and still look good to remember. So before I let you go, wait a couple of pieces of advice for our listeners to help. So our listeners are typically thinking about starting a podcast and getting more visibility, they are looking to step up into the world and share their message with the world. I mean, what would you say to that? And along the lines of like the work that you do, that would be really helpful for them right now in that thought process of like before taking the taking the leaf inadmissibility? Yeah. Okay.

So usually, before we take the leap into visibility, what comes out is a little a whole lot of fear. Yeah, and we saw, but yeah, I would say before we really, like helping the instinct just to push the fear away. No, no, no, no, it's fine. It's fine, it's fine. But then the inside of you it's like, you know, dying and then your your, your stomach's in knots and your ritual of anxiety, and you don't like your brains foggy. So I would say before you push us your way, don't have a conversation with your fear. It's there for a reason. And it can be a simple journaling exercise. Or it can be kind of a meditation process where you, you go into a safe space, and you invite your fear to have a conversation with you as if it were different in a different person. But just I think just knowing that there is no part of you that actually wishes you heard that all the parts of you even the ones that are you know, fearful or angry or opposing to what you do, they're doing enough for a reason. And usually, it's, it's some kind of, I want to keep you safe, right? So having that conversation with that fear, it can give you an idea of why it exists. You know, it can it can maybe bring up a situation you have experienced as a child or at an area in your life when you you were hurt, or in some way you didn't feel great or something happened. And then that fear is connected, because your subconscious mind does not want you to experience this again. Right. So uncovering those kinds of things and saying, Okay, thank you, I hear you, but I am ready, I am responsible for me, I will take the consequences of this choice, I have the freedom to choose and and choose to move past the experience and the fear and what my, my desire for this new thing is bigger than the fear of experiencing something that I have experienced in the past. And do this as many times as you need to. That's the thing. It's like, just forcing the fear away. It could have come back even stronger. Yeah, so. So I would say this is the first step. The second step is to really understand your Y and make the Y so strong that it would be like a magnet. So your fear is probably like a magnet pulling you back. Will your desire for the new thing for the for force starting your podcast, it is going to pull you forward. Because I have to say in my life, the times where I took the kind of the biggest leaps. It almost felt like I didn't have a choice. It felt like there was there was a force inside of me that was just pushing me in it into that path. And actually, sometimes if you find your wife you know if you know what you're into desire, and in this place, it's important to be very, very honest with yourself. Why are you doing this? And it doesn't have to be this great big reasons for I want to serve humanity. It doesn't have to be right. As long as you're honest. You know, it can be like I don't know I want to I want to be famous I want to experience that feeling of you know, everybody recognizing the I don't know, I'm just making things

Funny that I work in this space I do because I do not want to be famous. I'm like, that is not. That is not something I ever want to experience. Yeah. I'm happy to help other people get face to face with it. You know. It's funny, one of our, one of our clients, Cheryl Bruce, or she has this really great thing. It's like the seven I call it the seven layer dip. But it's just like seven layers of why. So like, if you feel like you're wise to service, I'd love for you just to add Y and Y and Y and Y and feel like it's like landed for you. I thought that's Yeah, yeah,

I think that is a wonderful exercise. I've done it myself as well, actually, I think from a different person, but it's similar idea is that you keep asking yourself the why? Until you can't get any any deeper, until there's nowhere to go. It's like you keep hitting them the same, the same place over and over and over again. Yeah, and then it's a matter of soul aligned action.

Where like that we're like that free solo live action.

Yes. So what it looks like is just, for me, I connect to us all I can add to the Creator, I connect to my business all and then I ask, okay, what is what is the next action that I need to take to reach that goal that I set for? Myself? For my business? What exactly it doesn't need to be? Sometimes that the answer comes immediately, and I get kind of like an up or business plan, right? And sometimes it's more just like a feeling or and sometimes the answer is wait. And I don't like that answer.

But the regenerator I feel like

Yeah, sometimes the answer is just white, give it give it a day or two or give it a month. And it's not time yet. And actually, if you get that answer, then Okay, the next question can be okay, what can I do to prepare for that stat, when the time is right. And then again, just listening to that kind of like it's it will be like an impulse or you know, right, sometimes it comes for something you see on social media or like an opportunity or a training program or a book, or just just being open to kind of those those answers that come from the greater universe to you. Because I know not everyone was used to like receiving information through channeling. Yeah. But if you ask the question, the universe will find a way to deliver answer there's a saying that, please do pay attention to it. Yeah, it does. I don't remember the saying specifically but, but it's kind of like when, when it's needed. Even an ant will be your messenger something like that. Yeah, like you know, universe will send an ant with a message to you or a bog yourself somewhere

My husband and I, we were talking about moving to where we live now like on which is his family's like summer vacation place. And we talked about moving there. We went there every weekend. We talked about it for like years. And you know, we kept getting home that just kept getting a little nudges he was not happy with his job. Finally, like universe is so funny because it like gives you like all this, like, you know, brings you the messages for me this message if you can order them, that's one other thing. So when we ignored them, their water pipe in our house broke one morning at like three o'clock in the morning, we moved out of our house for six months, while we were out of the house, we made the decision to put our house for sale. You didn't build the house in two days. And now he's lived where we live for six years. So had that water pipe not broke, we probably still would have been talking about it. But then the universe was like ready to kick us in the butt because we're not listening.

Yeah, give you a gentle ledges and kind of like a soft, a soft inspiration. And then at some point, if, if it's something that you're that is your soul's plan that we call, I call it divine timing. If it's your divine timing, there is nothing you can do to avoid it. This, your soul has made an agreement to do this. So your soul is going to you know, ask the universe for help. Do make sure to put you on there on that path. So then you can get what your soul needs you to get from that experience. Yeah, instead of great experiences then for us.

Grateful for it. Yeah. Oh my gosh, this isn't so fantastic. Thank you so much for joining us today. How can our audience reach out to find out more how to work with you all that kind of good stuff. Okay,
