WHATS IN TODAYS EPISODE:Lopa van der Mersch (Founder and CEO of Rasa) joins Natalie for a conversation around living your values in a profit-focused world. Whether she’s pushing the envelope of earth-friendly compostable packaging, building a forward-thinking sustainable supply chain, or re-imagining a new level of customer care, Lopa is always working to be a socially conscious entrepreneur. Her effort paid dividends: her adaptogenic coffee alternative company, Rasa, has seen triple-digit growth every year since their launch. Within this episode you will be provided with value, insights and education that can help you to embody and practice consciously sustainable practices within your personal and professional life by someone who is already doing the thing!QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE:We respond to our bodies in many ways that we do the earth, where we are extracting more resources that is sustainable and not putting enough back in. Integrity is about energy. Living out of integrity to our values is a tremendous energy leak.  If you&apos;re being unsustainable to yourself your business is going to come out being unsustainable in some shape or form. Remember to take breaks from the game and be really attentive to stewarding your energy. When you are more connected to source you will have that right motive much more naturally in terms of the decisions you make in being a sustainable business.LEARN MORE ABOUT LOPA AND HER WORK:Lopa van der Mersch is many things: Serial entrepreneur. Mother of two. Sustainability advocate. TEDx speaker. Recovering cult member. Three years ago, she added a new chapter: Founder and CEO of Rasa, the adaptogenic coffee alternatives revolutionizing people’s relationship to energy. 2015 was what Lopa now calls “her own personal 2020” — she left a cult, had emergency surgery while pregnant, lost a family member, and had a traumatic birth. Beaten down and exhausted, she needed a source of energy that could sustain her without burnout, crashes, or jitters. What she needed didn’t exist, so she worked with a clinical herbalist and Rasa was born: adaptogen-rich blends that nourish & energize while providing enough rich, roasty flavor to convert even the most devoted coffee fanatic. What started with a mom elbow-deep in herbs in her kitchen is now a movement, with triple-digit YoY growth and over 100K customers worldwide.https://wearerasa.com/Facebook + Instagram: @wearerasahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lopa-van-der-mersch/Help support Rasa!

Transforming the Way We Facilitate Educational Environments as Coaches and Mentors with Experiential Learning

WHATS IN TODAYS EPISODE:Join a discussion with Natalie Brite and Imani Quinn as we discuss quantum healing and how it can help us to activate a life of purpose. Imani Quinn is a Quantum Oracle, Author, Artist, Speaker who comes from a lineage of intuitive women, working in mediumship, dream work and divination. More recently in the past 3 years, Imani has worked with a quantum shamanic healer and has expanded their practices into the world of quantum healing and quantum mechanics.

Quantum has expanded Imani as a healer, allowing her to tap into clients dreams and heal them in other dimensions, as well as helped her to bring in a book deal and other career goals. Quantum is truly powerful and we are excited that this episode will support us in helping to make Quantum accessible for others.WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:—What is quantum healing and how quantum mechanics can help us to create our desired reality by tapping into our desires in the present moment—Frequency work and how it shows up in a way that can help us heal the mind and spirit while also aligning ourselves to our purpose—How quantum already shows up in our lives and ways to begin a dream practice—How to develop self awareness and compassion for ourselves and others with shadow work—How to move through resistance and challenges with more ease—How to court your desiresGREAT QUOTES FROM THE EPISODE:"Shadow work is the way to the light.""We have a lot of limited beliefs that are stored in our subconscious in the back of our energy field and a lot of those are from the matrix that told us how things need to be done and what is possible. They can keep us limited from doing things that we want us to do. Quantum allows us to play big. ""We are in an expansive reality where we get to let in what we want, but we have to court our success. Before you&apos;re asking for something to come in or shift, what does it look like to have it? Its all about what frequency you&apos;re pulling in. So when you know you want to do something, how do you pull in that frequency and identifying what is limiting within myself that is causing me to be unable to grasp that."LEARN MORE ABOUT IMANI AND THEIR WORK:Get $5 off Imani&apos;s Quantum Guidebook which comes with a workbook and an 80 minute pre-recorded workshop.

Quantum Healing and Quantum Mechanics for Manifesting a Life of Purpose with Imani Quinn

WHATS IN TODAYS EPISODE:In this episode, Rae Embrey joins Natalie Brite as they discuss the transformational power of energy healing and how it can support us in thriving in business and beyond. Rae began as an animal communicator, working heavily with the energetics of animals that eventually led her to also supporting people with her energy healing gifts. Rae helps humans with soul alignment, guiding individuals to process their energy and heal their core wounds so to reveal their souls purpose. In this episode, Natalie and Rae discuss Rae&apos;s unique approach to business energetics and energy healing, and how her work was informed by noticing a common need in people to gain healing in the realms of fear, people pleasing, toxic productivity, guilt and shame, lack of boundaries, self worth and self esteem. WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:How to work with and process the emotional body and our energetic blockages as a path for healing as well as releasing of what does not serve usHow to undue learned ways of coping that are not helping us to step into our full, vibrant selfWays to fill the body with safety and trustThe ripple effect of working with your own energy and committing to your own healingWays to hold energetic space for yourself so you can hold stronger space for clientsBuilding your support team as an entrepreneur so you receive the levels of support that can help you grow in transformational waysClearing your own energy and processing through core wounds as a way to clear your own blockages as well as blockages within your lineagePOWERFUL QUOTES FROM THE EPISODE:"Every emotion that we have has an energy behind it and its either going to fuel us or block us. Many people get stuck and paralyzed in the fear of these perceptions and the ideas of what they feel is expected and that fear creates strong blockages from us being able to take leaps into where we are being asked to go forward in. When you learn to work with those fears and those emotions and not shove them away and feel shame about them, we learn how to navigate them.""As entrepreneurs, we have to take the time to slow down and process more than almost anyone else because we are holding energetic space with everybody we connect with and they are depending on us to be grounded and stable. We have to have the awareness of what we are personally going through in order to show up and hold a solid container for other people."LEARN MORE ABOUT RAE EMBREY AND HER WORK:https://www.raeradiantvibes.com/https://www.instagram.com/raeradiantvibes/LINKS TO THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:To learn more about Natalie&apos;s short term consulting and strategy sessions, visit https://www.nataliebrite.com/mentoring-sales-pageTo be more deeply supported in your journey with weaving ethics and sustainability into every day business practices or to gain guidance on starting, growing and sustaining your online business, check out Natalie Brite&apos;s Align+Flow Membership here: https://www.nataliebrite.com/align-flow-membershipABOUT NATALIE BRITE:Natalie is an educator, mentor, writer, and speaker for topics of ethical entrepreneurship and sustainable business strategy and systems development, conscious branding, ethical marketing, inclusive service development, and social leadership.Learn more about Natalie here: https://www.nataliebrite.com/about-pageSupport the show (https://www.nataliebrite.com)

EP53: Accountability, ethics and shifting the coaching industry to be rooted in relationships and skill before profit with Thaís Sky

WHATS IN TODAYS EPISODE:This episode of the Wildly Aligned Podcast features Iona Holloway, speaker, coach and best selling author of Ghost: Why Perfect Women Shrink. Together, Natalie and Iona dissect the process of holding space for our clients as well as ourselves, providing listeners with tangible tips, insights and support around ways that we can enhance the experiences we provide others and create for ourselves so to develop environments for more transformational healing and results. This episode will be a powerful tool for coaches, mentors, facilitators and space holders who want to create safe containers for their clients to activate their own abilities to become their own guide, healer and answer they’ve been searching for.//WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:—How to identify survival tools we use when in relationship with ourselves and others, and how to work with clients that are bringing survival tools into their experience.—How to cultivate more authentic relationships with clients starting with developing our listening skills, adaptability skills, and customization of our process that will ultimately help others experience more sustainable results.—Ways to support your clients in cultivating their own answers instead of projecting your own experiences onto them.—How to let go of the pressure to be perfect as a space holder and bring in your humanity instead. —How to offer clients various styles of invitation, approaches and perspectives to consider as a way to support them in experiencing transformational healing and results.—Ways to identify what your client actually needs in order to thrive and create an inclusive environment that supports them in exploring their gifts in a way that helps them to access their needs in their own way.//MOST LOVED QUOTES FROM EPISODE:We cannot break free using the same tools that created the prison.When someone liberates themselves by getting to the answer themselves and you&apos;re just there helping to facilitate it is so much more powerful.I am the mirror for your experience that is not judging what you&apos;re saying to me. It is our job as a facilitator creating an experience to provide lots of different ways for someone else to empower themselves to see how they heal, learn or change. Everyone is different.Observe your client, understand their way of learning, and then deliver to them opportunities to thrive through the lens of their own genius. We are all geniuses if we just allow ourselves to learn the way we are supposed to learn.Expert teaching and fast results removes the humanity and the truth of the experience which is that no one arrives. We are just becoming more aware and more ourselves. //LINKS TO THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Learn more about Iona Holloway:instagram: @ionahollowaywebsite: www.ionaholloway.comLearn more about the Align+Flow Membership:https://www.nataliebrite.com/align-flow-membership//HOW TO SUPPORT THE WILDLY ALIGNED PODCAST:(Hop on our newsletter to get ongoing insights, explorations and personal ideologies sent right to your inbox! https://view.flodesk.com/pages/60638337156ede3509fb364fContinue the conversation on our Instagram page: www.instagram.com/wildlyalignedpodcastSupport the show (https://www.nataliebrite.com)

Your way of approaching things doesn&apos;t have to look like anybody else&apos;s. Your way of doing things differently doesn&apos;t mean its wrong. Being different as an entrepreneur or business owner doesn&apos;t mean you&apos;re wrong. If I want to do meaningful work in the world, I need to be asking WHY I am teaching and approaching things the way I am, and to who&apos;s benefit those approaches are catered toward. Meaningful work requires us to consider how our actions as business owners impact us, people and the planet.To develop your own creativity and innovation, we must begin with removing the one path approaches to business that we think are required to follow in order to create success and say instead "What is the most healing way for me to do this that has the best impact on myself, people and the planet?"// LINKS TO THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Learn more about Natalie Brite&apos;s mentoring and consulting here:https://www.nataliebrite.com/mentoring-sales-pageCheck out the Align+Flow Membership here:https://www.nataliebrite.com/align-flow-membership// ACCESS THE FREE GIFT THAT COINCIDES WITH THIS EPISODE:Access a free copy of Natalie&apos;s Quarter 2 2021 Strategy Guide for Conscious Business Owners! https://view.flodesk.com/pages/605925bc631919a70708a6d5// HOW TO SUPPORT THE WILDLY ALIGNED PODCAST:Hop on our newsletter to get ongoing insights, explorations and personal ideologies sent right to your inbox! https://view.flodesk.com/pages/60638337156ede3509fb364fCheck out our latest blog article article that continues this conversation: https://www.nataliebrite.com/wildly-aligned-podcast/mh2zrh9oe2t6pvawaov2nw3bn3b0ew// ABOUT NATALIE BRITE:Natalie Brite is a writer, educator, mentor and consultant for the topics of ethical business ideation, branding, content marketing, service development, and transformative leadership.  Natalie is the founder of the Align+Flow Membership, host of the Wildly Aligned Podcast, and has worked with people and organizations from all around the world, supporting them in developing an ethical business model.  Learn more about Natalie here: https://www.nataliebrite.com/about-pageSupport the show (https://www.nataliebrite.com)
