Living in the Zone of Feminine Magic.

If ever there was a time in history where aspiring to 'live our highest lives' counts for the good of all, it's now. In fact, it's no longer an ideal; it's essential. Despite the world's challenges, it's possible to access the energy of magic every day. And ladies, didn't we come here to do just that? I'm not talking about oracle cards and sage burning (although those are fun too!) - I'm talking about accessing the energy of magic to manifest our dreams.

Since time began, women have been connected to the natural earth's magic and the unseen worlds. Those who dared to practise the arts of magic, even just in healing and divining, were burned at the stake.

But in this time of great upheaval in humanity and the planet, it's time to harness some of our greatest, natural feminine attributes in building a new world order using our exquisite ability to leverage the energy of magic for love, peace and joy.

For many decades, the industrial revolution business and business development industry has been dominated by a success model primarily created by men and epitomizing predominantly masculine traits. Linear achievement objectives, mindset, high, hard goals set in concrete, money and status motivated communication, and a vocabulary that reflected the ideals of material success. It was a straight path inspired by the science of logic, discipline, grind, willpower and grit. Not much magic going on.

Women who entered the entrepreneurial arena tended to feel pressured to adopt the same approach but realized that we are so very different from men.

As the female entrepreneurial phenomenon grew, we realized that for us to live our highest lives, we needed to embody our whole feminine nature. We realized that, to thrive in a holistically fulfilled way, we would have to do it differently to our menfolk. We can't envision a thriving life without honouring our natural cycles, guided by our innate connection with nature and deeply in tune with our intuitive, inner realms.

We have had to soften the traditional idea of male high-performance to a more contemporary and spiritual quest. And we know that for our own balance and pleasure, we must shift the aim-high, straight-line, whack-it-hard striving after Excellence model to a delicious, sensory, emotion-filled dance into our most magical, womanly destinies! Women tap into their magic when they are in communities of sisters. We are magical when we feel beautiful, loved and inspired. We are magical when we laugh, bear babies, dance wildly and speak up for justice. We are magical when we forgive, create, lay beautiful tables and arrange flowers. We are magical when we sing to children, kiss our lovers' chests, prowl under the full moon and let the wind blow through our hair. But it takes full, daily awareness to remember our natural magical power and use it to manifest our highest lives.

My relationship with myself is the most magical relationship I can ever have; all of my other relationships stem from this one.

The most fruitful outcome of all of the rest of the relationships in my life stems from the grounding that I have with myself. I know that I am my 'highest soulmate' for the greatest good of all mankind. I am the center of my universe. Not in a selfish or selfobsessed way, but I have a unique perspective.

We are all a tapestry, woven from the experiences of the generations that came before us, especially our grandparents and parents, and how they viewed their world. That is a magical thing in itself.

I speak my life into being from my occurrence. My occurrence is how I view the world - much like putting my glasses on. It's a filter that helps me see the world in a way that serves me. If I choose the world to be an unsafe place, it will show up as unsafe. If I decide someone is an asshole, that's how they're going to show up. That's my occurrence. I can change my occurrence at any time and use it to create my highestself experience with deliberate presence. And I can choose to see the magic in everything or not. So can you.

To live in the Zone of Magic is to be in Flow, which is an absence of resistance. I have an acronym - several, actually - that forms the word FLOW. For today we'll go with Feel Love, Open Willingness. Flow is the 'holy grail' of so-called 'highperformance', and the fastest way to get there is through the magical power of love.

When you feel love, you put yourself into a state of willingness.

When a child does something bad, you don't get mad at them. You look at them and say, "Oh, they did something cute". Which is the willingness to be with life exactly the way it is and exactly the way it isn't. It's the first step back into the magical realm, from nonresistance to love, to flow to magic.

Sh*t is always going to happen to us in life. It's not going to stop happening, and when we abdicate who we are to the circumstances, we have no agency. There is no cheese down that road! When tricky things come up, I'm always aware and willing to become bigger than my circumstances. If we're living with excuses, there'll never be Flow!

This is really key because resistance is grounded in control, and that's the opposite of Flow. Resistance shows up, for whatever reason, when something happens that doesn't go the way we want it to. Why do we need to resist what life brings to us that we don't like, as if only good things should happen to us? How much better to realize that it was meant to happen exactly the way it did; look at it, but don't BE it. Can you feel how feminine, flowing and receptive that idea is?

We don't argue with gravity; we don't argue with the clouds when they're shedding rain. In fact, it's easy to see the magic of nature, even when it's disruptive! So why are you arguing with life when it shows up exactly the way it is and exactly the way it isn't? Why are we arguing with God or the universe or ANYthing?.

I often say, "trust is given, not earned." People think I'm foolish, but I am speaking of giving myself trust! I can walk into a situation and know ME, know my superpowers, know my detriments, and know my divinity. If I understand that, if I'm aware of it, have access to it and have accepted it, I can just be in the energy of love and Flow. There's no possibility of Flow unless you have accepted all of it - the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Acceptance and surrender aren't always glamorous, but all circumstances can be alchemized into opportunity with love. Women are so good at this because we are designed for Flow! Leaning into what's here before us rather than dragging negative things into the present moment messes up our sparkly futures. There's no agency there. We are hijacked, slaves to our own thoughts - the biggest form of slavery.

We must know ourselves and develop the capacity for fortitude.

I define fortitude in relation to fortifying my own spirit, body, mind, actions, and connections on a daily basis. Things happen, and they occur in a way where I can find love in everything, even in the most horrible cases. This precludes having negative thoughts about a person or experiencing them, or the occurrence, in a certain way.

Think of yourself as a fulcrum balancing the experiences of your world. A fulcrum needs to be strong to properly balance whatever it is supporting on either side. And, in real life, it will never be balanced! Think about it. Something explodes over here and on the other side is a child you need to respond to. We don't want the negativity from the one side to bleed over into the other space, right?

I call this process - "collapsing emotional domains." I am best at living inside the tension of the paradox of life. And the fantastic reality is that we can be bigger than our circumstances. The magic is all around us, just waiting for us to get over our stuff and notice it!

To do that, we must know ourselves and develop the capacity for fortitude. I define fortitude as fortifying my own spirit, body, mind, actions, and relations on a daily basis. Things happen, and they happen in a way where I can find love in everything, even in the most horrible cases. This precludes having negative thoughts about a person, or experiencing them or the occurrence in a certain way.

When we have access to our highest self, we have the opportunity to act from our best. And that is available to us - right now! It's not out there somewhere - it's right there inside you.

Feel. Love. Open. Willingness. You are made to flow through the magic of existence. And you are made for your most magical vision of life. It's all real, but it's a choice. Sh*t or magic - you get to choose every day.
