Where's the Witch?

This is the year our dreams come quietly true :) You’re gonna dance to the beat of your own drum like NEVER BEFORE baby!!!!!

Finally went through that portal I was aiming for. It’s actually wild in here. But all my limbs are the same and I still don’t like steamed broccoli so like… how’s that possible?

It’s been a very deconstructive time for me! In this episode, I return to the podcast after a difficult month, and begin to rebuild my belief in magic.

What’s the big picture, and how do you hold it?

At the end of this episode we draw a new animal symbol and you won’t believe what it is!!! 😁😁😁This summer has been a real roller coaster, and MAJOR change is in the air. Let me give you the mental massage your brain and heart needs 🥰🥰🥰🥰AND GO LISTEN TO HYPNAGOGUE! https://open.spotify.com/show/48zVCqhyzIPpIj5XwpGknF?si=3bpiqvroQBSYpI3MwLXtEQ

When is it time to push yourself, and when is it time to fully relax? When is it time for discipline, and when is it time for grace? This has been a question on my mind for a long time, and is the impetus behind what I call my Yin Yang practice. It’s a way to flow with your natural cycles of energy and find balance!

Waiting for something to manifest? Clock this one b!

Is weather the most GOATED conversation topic of all time??? The world is FINALLY opening up its goddamn heart. 🙌 And us? We’re learning how to chillax on an UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL 😎

For the first time today I’m going to be doing a reading on US!!! Plus a lecture courtesy of yours truly on the ins and outs of discipline, and how to put it in service of bringing more effortlessness joy into our lives.

🙌

Hoping this episode finds you on good day today!

Everything has been leading up to this moment in history! ✨ Today is our first reading based off a FULL MONTH of temporal grounding! I am so excited to keep building a space for us that feels truly magical 🧚 Thank you for joining me!

The paradox of desire is that we have to wait. But how do we let time do its thing while still living our lives in a way that isn’t on HOLD? All that we’ve got is the present baby 😜

My very first attempt put out new temporal grounding system! Buckle up!

Super excited for this episode! Today we’re exploring a new framework I’m calling Temporal Grounding. 🤗

2025 is off to an unruly start. Things we’ve taken for granted for soooo long are unraveling, and we don’t know yet know what will take their place. It’s time to dig deep 😤, open our minds even further 🤯, and build a foundation of peace that nothing on this earthly realm can shake 🫨!!!!

Things are leveling up ladies 👏 speaking for myself, this month has been a real opportunity to look at negative patterns and choose something different. Stepping onto the path might look like stepping off the conveyer belt. Yup!

Okay so I’m starting to get some witchy inklings… finding peace in the stillness, greeting visions throughout my day-to-day life, even starting to connect with astrology!

When we want something, it often takes a looooong time to get it, and most of the time we don’t actually know when that ending is actually going to arrive. Well, mine has! Having successfully landed a Big Girl™️ job, I must admit that it’s arrival left me in a state of shock. Really, after all these months, I was done looking! Thats what I want to talk about today, along with how I have been using the time I have before my first day on the job.

Does faith have to be tested to be real? In episode I’m six months into a job hunt with glimmers of an end but no real promises, closer to broke than I’ve ever been in my life. It’s an important time for me, I know. I cry, I put my ego aside and apply for Home Depot, do whatever I can to keep my dream moving forward, and hopefully find a way to bring magic into my life!

My trilogy reflection on surrender and the creative process comes to fruition with this episode! Kaladhara, with her just-beyond-a-new-moon crescent light, shows us that even when there isn't full clarity yet, there's still light. And what's more? It takes time to change and grow! Before a door can open wide, it has to start with the smallest of cracks. I have a LOT to say today, on all different areas of my life! From my health and journey through chronic pain, the very beginnings of my witchy journey (hunt?), to finding faith that my job hunt is very nearly over, let's get into it!

In this episode we discuss the second of three spring oracle cards, on my quest to reconnect with creative joy!

Spring is in the air, and a lot of change is coming my way! As my career, my love life, and more spring forward, my writing life has been quite... stagnant. In this three part series, I'm going to be using the tool of oracle cards to gain some insight and reflection on how I might reconnect with my creative energy and put the fun back into writing. The first card pulled in this three part series about surrender answers the question: What do I need to understand so that I can RELEASE what does not serve my soul fulfillment?

We throw the words "gratitude" and "thank you" around A LOT these days. And if I'm being honest, it's easy for me to just go through the motions when I'm giving thanks. Today I wanted to talk about how my experience of gratitude is changing as I get older, and how I'm reconnecting to gratitude after LinkedIn has talked my ear off about it for years.

After turning 25 and having a miniature mid-twenties-panic, I'm realizing how special this time of my life really is, that it's fleeting, and why being young, dumb and silly should be a big priority. From deciding to take the jump into a searching for "big kid" job, to shamelessly sleeping in late every day of the week, to trekking out on a big European adventure, this is what's been bouncing around in my head lately!

Today I want to share a really special part of my life with you guys— my writing!

It's not always clear what you should do next once you've gotten knocked down, and sometimes that confusion is the hardest part. Someday I'll look back at this episode and see how far I've come. Cheers!

It's true. A massive part of the population is turning down job opportunities left and right. As workers continue to stand up for themselves, companies struggle to stay afloat. Who's being stubborn, and who's just surviving? Something's gotta give— what will it be?

I've got a complicated relationship with working. It's something I am more or less forced to do, yet at the same time I'm privileged to have a job that gives me lots of freedom. Creating videos and blogs and podcasts makes me happy, but having my worth defined by what I create makes me feel anxious and small. I want to do something meaningful with my life, but I want it to be meaningful to ME— not all the people I'm trying to impress. I've come to see that I'm carrying around some core beliefs about work that are really holding me back from the life I want to live. So join me as we discuss!

I'm currently in the middle of a rather emotional move, and it's been making me think about motivation and workflow. How do you say goodbye to where you are and what you're doing right now? How do you get yourself excited about the next step? These are questions we have to answer on the big scale— like when we're moving— but also on the small scale— like when it's time to clear out those unread emails from your inbox. Today I'm mining my experience of moving for practices and ideas I can bring into my day-to-day workflow and motivation!

There's no way around it— being in business by yourself is often incredibly isolating. How can solo entrepreneurs— or anyone, for that matter— build connections and relationships into their work life? Joining me today is Chris Polster, a non-employee business owner (a NEBO) of Retired But Working, a Twin Cities area LLC. Retired But Working is on a mission to assemble and organize a million other NEBOs into an economic force of nature! You can learn more about Chris and his business at www.retiredbutoworking.com.

Everyone has a story. Countless stories— actually! However, it can take some finesse to bring those stories to the surface. Today I'm talking about one of my favorite activities— conducting an interview. I'm gonna share why I love it and some tricks I've learned!

Videos are magic— especially because it can feel like they come out of thin air. But there's a process to making those zingy little clips that keep you scrolling all day, and I'm here to give you a sneak peek into how it all gets done!

Moving people towards a purchase decision takes momentum. That's why videos— full of energy and personality— are an invaluable marketing tool. But companies face barriers when it comes to making video content: Time, money and skill are all required to make effective content. In this episode I'm going to talk about my experience making and distributing videos, and how I've been able to put their power to use for my clients!

A lot of really smart people have described good listening as active, not passive. But what if I just... let go? Is it okay not to ask a follow up question? And is there a place for passive listening in my work life? sweevideosolutions.com

Welcome to the first episode of my podcast! This is going to be a place for thinking out loud— and today we're thinking out loud about my content marketing business. Specifically, my vision statement: To attract customers with content that is rooted in value, curiosity, and joy. ... wanna see my website? https://www.sweevideosolutions.com/
