61/ The Emotional Root Cause of my Eczema

April 11, 2023 09:15 - 36 minutes - 33.6 MB

In this episode, I share an update on my self-healing journey with my skin. Healing is non linear & more so it has to be customized to our unique life experiences. We are energetic beings first, and physical second. That means in order to create lasting restoration, we'll have to approach the entire paradigm of health from a holistic point of view. Synthesizing Human Design, Astrology, Gene Keys & German New Medicine to understand what the 'new paradigm of health' will look like rain after...

57/ My First Mushroom Experience & The Importance of Knowing Your Personal Baseline

February 28, 2023 07:30 - 58 minutes - 53.4 MB

In this episode, I share my first time sitting with mushrooms. I learned & experienced so much. The 3 things I walked away with: 1. The method will never be the Source. 2. People are suffering despite their smiles. 3. I’m in the incorrect space. Not just Bali but industry-wise.  What I know for sure is that I have nothing without a Personal Baseline & it's here that everything grows from. Similar to a very fertile garden bed, if we don't know the climate & needs of our Personal Baseline ...

If you don't already have a practice that prioritizes your holistic well being as you walk the path of entrepreneursh...

55/ Anxiety Free Content Q&A- Epiphany

February 14, 2023 04:26 - 1 hour - 64.9 MB

In this episode, I answered the questions sent in around the Anxiety Free Content Live Class. Creating content shouldn't be a place of dread and fear but many times it is because we don't have a plan or vision of our business. Business for me takes a minimum of 7 years to really uncover fully. Throughout that time we begin understanding our own depths along with how best we can implement Slow Business principles that support our gifts, talents & personal purpose. Marketing, messaging & conte...

54/ Making Clean Money & not Compromising Your God Identity

February 06, 2023 09:25 - 51 minutes - 47.1 MB

In this episode, we’re moving beyond the binary thinking that to be rich is unethical and to be poor means you’re in integrity. The majority of us desire to live as our God Self, True Self, Authentic Self but can get easily caught up in the projections of the world or from others. As Spiritual beings having a very material & human life, this static of all-or-nothing beliefs can create stagnation in our lives, businesses & bodies. Alex openly shares his experience with cheating at a job, gett...

52/ Stop Disrespecting Yourself

October 20, 2022 17:46 - 18 minutes - 17.4 MB

In this epsiode, I'm sharing a fire message first to myself & secondly to you. I speak to my personal realizations around undervaluing myself, my intelligence, genius, empathy etc. As a Black Woman in this space, I will no longer be standing for internalized or externalized violence against myself or others. Respect yourself, your voice needs to be amplified, your mission needs to be heard & you need to be taken care of. As entrepreneurs, we can not afford to devalue ourselves in any way, we...

51/ I Failed. No Regrets. Moving On.

October 10, 2022 14:00 - 5 minutes - 5.22 MB

In this episode, I'm talking about starting over, one of my favorite topics & something that should be more normalized. In business, we are constantly starting over. Creating another refined version and this act shouldn't be seen as a failure but as an opening. As founders & entrepreneurs, this is one of the most fertile seasons because it shows not only are we growing but we are becoming deeply aware. If you're in a space where your business is calling for its next iteration, then this epis...

50/ How Do I Build an Aquarian Business?

August 11, 2022 12:00 - 32 minutes - 30 MB

In this episode, I answered questions sent in from a column we called, 'Where's the Tension?' How do we navigate the beginnings of building an Aquarian Business and what are ways we can support ourselves despite the doubts that appear when starting? A lot can come up when we decide to vulnerably share our gifts, talents & wisdom with others, especially through a conduit like business, but knowing the first few early considerations can make the on-ramp that much smoother.

48/ Grounding your Divinity into Humanity as an Entrepreneur

June 15, 2022 14:30 - 33 minutes - 31.1 MB

In this episode, I speak about grounding your divinity into humanity. After all of the healing, contemplation & understanding that we are indeed Divine, it's time to accept & respect that we too are human, with material & earthly needs. Business if you let it can become an enriching spiritual path, filled with greed, aspiration & finally transcendence (Gene Key 54). For me, this is why I believe I entered business in the first place. No longer do we have to separate ourselves, all of you is ...

48/ Grounding your Divinity into Humanity

June 15, 2022 14:30 - 33 minutes - 46.7 MB

I think we naturally find this spot. After all of the healing, contemplation & understanding that we are indeed Divine, it's time to accept that we too are human, with material & earthly needs. There is no other place quite as respecting of this truth than our businesses. This doesn't make us greedy, bad or tarnished- it makes us Humanly Divine. This one is specifically for those that resonate with the Service Provider role, see you inside. ✧ Mentioned: Founder Sessions (Purpose & Busin...

June 13, 2022 03:15 - 1 hour - 75.1 MB

In this episode, I shared about the various roles of Aquarian Business- Faciliator, Service Provider, Entrepreneur & CEO. Each archetype brings something to the whole and even more, each archetype can support the growth of each other. In this way, a natural synarchy forms taking the place of authoritarian-based hierarchical systems. If you enjoy archetypes, especially in the coming paradigm of Aquarian business, you'll enjoy this episode. ----more---- Erah Society World / The Teahouse for...

June 08, 2022 14:30 - 41 minutes - 38.3 MB

In this episode, I shared the thinking & process behind burning down my half a million dollar business. What I learned, why I did it, and what I won't be doing again as I build back up.

46/ Burning down my Half a Million Dollar Business

June 08, 2022 14:30 - 41 minutes - 57.5 MB

I burned down a half a million dollar business. Don’t be like me. It hadn’t clicked that I was white knuckling my offers as a Service Provider instead of building a revolutionary business as an Aquarian Entrepreneur. This is the voice I wish I heard before walking away.  *Update- Mentorship has closed. ✧ Mentioned: Founder Sessions (Purpose & Business) Human Design Soul Map The Blog Jas' Instagram- @jasnnenna Erah's IG-@erahsociety
