Brandi Wolf|Finding Entrepreneurial Success Through Meditation

Send us Fan MailJoin Wes Tankersley on this episode of Shaping Success as he talks with Brandi Wolf about her entrepreneurial endeavors. Brandi discusses her day job as the owner/publisher of GREET EAGLE and her passion for meditation.As an entrepreneur, she has tried different things in her life to find a few things that stick. She started in her 20's and just got by financially with her entrepreneurial ambitions.  The key is finding what works for one’s personality and work ethic.What stuck for her was publishing and meditation. She describes meditation as a tool to help stay in the present using breathing and visualization. Since she was young, she has meditated without realizing what it was. She was just trying to fall asleep and quiet her mind. Then it evolved into meditating to de-stress.  She had a string of traumas in her life that started in 2002 when her father committed suicide. Brandi points out that people don’t realize they are traumatized when it’s happening. They go into survival mode. The realization comes when the dust settles from the traumatic events. Meditation helped her heal. As she healed, she changed and those around her changed. When the energies don’t align anymore, it’s time to let go. She and Wes discuss yoga and meditation. Wes says when people are in a crisis, they don’t breathe and tense up. Brandi says yoga uses each movement to put a person in a present state. Yoga and meditation get a bad rap since people associate them with being religious or something. The reality is that meditation is really a tool that can be partnered with any philosophy or thought-form. It can be very simple. With that, Brandi gives a several examples of meditation: Guided meditation is the type most people know. It uses visualization and involves taking a journey, for example, through the body; relaxing the feet all the way to the head. There’s walking meditation in which a person stays in the present while walking; visualizing and breathing. The one Brandi uses most often is mantra meditation.  It’s making it a part of your daily ritual, like brushing teeth or taking a shower. Take the time to do nothing and be in the present. Brandi shares that time management is very important and works towards scheduling in creative time, family time and fun time.  The key is to plan! If it’s not scheduled, it may not happen. In the future, Brandi would like to teach meditation full time. She would like to offer virtual classes because of its convenience and ability to reach more people. Her goal is to help entrepreneurs succeed using meditation.She and Wes agree that the thing to do is to teach others what one has learned. Sharing that knowledge that’s learned is the next step to success and gain support.Follow Brandi on Instagram: https://instagram.com/goldenalchemymedicationWebsite: goldenalchemy.com#shapingsuccess #westankersley #meditation #entrepreneur #editor #trauma #healing #growth #yoga #support #energy #breath #breathe #simple Support the showFor merchandise, podcast and youtube:Join The Patreonhttps://patreon.com/WestankersleyFollow Shaping Success https://shapingsuccesspodcast.buzzsprout.com/Get Ars Victorioushttps://a.co/d/5f4todGhttps://a.co/d/5f4todGEmail [email protected] for guest ideas or to be on the show!
