I’m officially over it.
For years, I bought into the lie that putting myself last was 'noble.'

The reality? It was costing me my peace, my energy, my health and the quality of my relationships.

Unlearning that lifelong conditioning is hard—it takes real courage and an actual investment in yourself.

That’s why I’m so obsessed with helping you shift from just-getting-through-the day to instead thriving in the life you desire.

If you’re feeling stuck but don't have the bandwidth to figure out why, check out this mini-sode of Career & Life Momentum (C.A.L.M) Chats.

I’m breaking down The Wheel of Wellness.

It’s an insightful self-assessment that cuts through the noise and tells you exactly where to focus your growth so you can actually see results—without adding another 'to-do' to your plate."

Choosing yourself isn't just about 'self-care'—it’s about refusing to let your brilliance be dimmed by a cycle of over-functioning.

When you have clarity, the brain fog lifts, and that 'next best step' becomes clear, not because you’re working harder, but because you’re working from a place of alignment.
​
To help you map out exactly where your energy needs to go, I’ve created a Wheel of Wellness Assessment Printable for you to download and use as your personal guide.

As the world gets increasingly less stable, staying hired in a good paying role in a non-toxic work environment is becoming more challenging. 

Empowering ourselves with options for income streams and more support to create them are essential.

For many women I have met or coached, the thought of starting their own business or self-employment are not new considerations.

Lately, more are starting to take strategic action to make it possible. 

That's one reason in this episode of Career & Life Momentum (C.A.L.M) Chats, I want to introduce you to Sara Torpey. She is one of my favorite people who is an expert on business development while keeping your sanity. ​

​Sara chose to figure out how to navigate shifting away from being a school teacher to self-employment and starting her own business, without all the drama. 

She knows how incredibly difficult and overwhelming building an opportunity on your own can be. Sara wants to make sure others don't have to endure such a huge, challenging transition on their own.

As a Mom, a business owner, and leader in her community, Sara is committed to  making the journey of starting a sustainable business easier for many.

She also created a powerful yet also playful book that I have used on several occasions to get unstuck or gain clarity.

The title in itself is medicine to my mindset on those tougher days in business.

​It's called, "Just Keep Going: 16 Charts and Question Sets To Help You Grow, Scale And Thrive In Business Without All The Drama." 

I have no doubt that once you experience Sara's "joyful weirdness" and hear her practical guidance, your soul will spark up about what could be possible for you. 

I'm excited to hear what you take away from our discussion.

Did you gain some new insight from our chat?

​What stood out to you about overcomplicating things? 
​
Share this episode with a friend who you would love to see follow their dream of working for themselves. 

You can also continue this conversation by reaching out on LinkedIn to me or Sara. 
​
Most of all, keep growing and glowing.

This wasn't an easy year for most of us.

Unexpected changes, mounting stress, health challenges, painful family dynamics and horrifying headlines are just some of the heaviness we have endured. 

It has made me extra grateful that somehow I got to spend time talking with some of the most courageous, conscious women from across the globe. 

Throughout 2025, each guest on my show, Career & Life Momentum Chats, brought so much expert guidance and authenticity.

​I put together a few minutes of highlights from the guest episodes for you in the video below.

I hope it sparks your soul to go check out the full episodes with each of these trailblazers who brought so much insight.

I am in awe of how they are each choosing to share their value, voice, and vision to help others.

Our world needs their work and message more than ever. 

​Thank you Louise Kershaw, Raditia Lasry, Jacquelyn Rodriguez, Mildred Talabi, Diane Sorensen, and K. Margaret Solorio for not just being amazing guests, but also for choosing to keep evolving from the inside out. 

Share this short video and blog with a friend who could use a pick-me-up for their soul. 

Are you in need of some good news, too?

I'll be kicking off the next series of Career & Life Momentum Chats with two people whose episodes will brighten your months ahead.

Sara Torpey and Vilma Usaite.
Both these women brought so many golden nuggets to the show! 

The upcoming discussion with Sara will help you simplify your days ahead. She has an amazing way of explaining personal and business growth concepts that make them practical and energizing for us to implement.

The episode coming up with Vilma will delight your soul. When I learned about her lightworker archetypes assessment and got my results, it made my jaw drop to the floor in its brilliance. 

I am still in amazement that I got to sit down for a cup of tea and deep conversation with these two creative, bold leaders. I admire each greatly and much like other guests on my show, their work is going above and beyond to lift up other soul-led women like you. 

And one more piece of good news for us both...

As this year of shedding identities that no longer serve us fades, there is a new energy coming in. Can you feel it?

While we shift out of this year of the Snake and into the year of the Horse, may all the positive, sustainable career and life momentum we desire come our way.

Let's keep growing and glowing together, 

Have you heard of being a cyclebreaker?

I first got introduced to this word in graduate school when I was being trained to become a counselor and mental health professional.

That was many years ago and I thought I understood it.

But I didn't.
​At least not at the deeper level I understand it now. 

Something about this word popping up again while recently working towards my board certification in life coaching struck me at a different place in my soul. 

My new course work encouraged me to explore beyond the wounded patterns and stress responses within my family of origin that I grew up with years ago. It challenged me to get more curious about several generations before my parents, too.

​And soon after I began that exploration into some of the intense history endured by my ancestors, an amazing synchronicity occurred.  

This sensitive topic for me is not one that I wanted to discuss in public on my show with just anyone.

I needed someone whose training and background helped ensure they were a safe, knowledgable, and experienced professional.

Diane Sorensen meets all these criteria and more.

​Plus, ever since we recorded her guest appearance for Career & Life Momentum Chats, she is someone I am grateful to now consider a friend. 

Diane is the type of special, kindred spirit that I could have talked to for hours.

Her podcast, From Chaos to Connection, has hundreds of remarkable, relatable episodes. She shines a much needed light on many challenging topics, including a compelling, heart-opening double episode with her daughter that I will never forget.

​It's no wonder her work has led to so many cycle-breaking women being empowered to create better boundaries and breakthroughs in their own lives. 

We would love to hear your thoughts about this episode and what it sparks in your soul about cycle-breaking and intergenerational trauma.

Reach out to me, Diane, or another coaching professional so we can support your courage to explore inner work that brings outer upgrades. 

Someone said something extraordinary to me the other day.

She was describing how things have changed so much for her.

However, her external circumstances with all the responsibilities, pressures, and busy life were basically the same.

Yet she had more energy, clarity, and a powerful steadiness that she had learned how to expand and trust.

"My inside is a completely different experience," she said.

She didn't feel the weight of of it all so much inside of her.

She even was noticing moments of "delicious ease" more often and intentionally pausing to savor them.

"That wasn't what I was like much at all before doing inner work", she continued with a sparkle in her eye that I will never forget. 

I was glued to what she was telling me.
I couldn't wait to hear more about HOW this transformation had happened for her.

And now you get to listen in on this soul-captivating conversation with this new episode of Career & Life Momentum Chats.

If "making ease your vibe" is a quest that intrigues you, then pull up a chair, a cup of something warm and nurturing, and get cozy.

It's time for you to hear many golden nuggets of insight that my guest, K. Margaret Solorio, host of the incredible podcast Intuitive Wisdom, shared during our recent time together.  

I could have talked for hours with K. Margaret, who is also a published author, Angel Reiki Master, Home Frequency Reset expert, and deeply loving mother to her kids.

You'll enjoy hearing about how she discovered "delicious ease" for herself and the ways she helps others align with it more.

Hearing her describe how we can return to that kind of grounded, soul-soothing peace—no matter the noise, no matter the pace—sent a shimmer of goosebumps through me.

Or maybe your ears perked up at the part in our chat where K. Margaret lets us in on the behind-the-scenes journey of what it took to publish her book, Make Ease Your Vibe.  WOAH, what a warrior!

Did her lessons learned unlock an idea or new possibility for you or someone you know?

What images or sensations surfaced for you when we explored phrases like "delicious ease" and "sacred pause"?

Email me anytime with what sparked your soul from this episode or what moments you are stopping to savor lately in your daily life.

In these intensely stressful times, sharing about the moments where we let the light in is more important than ever. 

​🦋 I'm here to hear about them and support your courageous choice to keep growing and glowing from the inside out. 

It's here!

Several of you requested a round-up of the year-long series I did about many of the Law of Attraction (LOA) processes. 

You asked and now it is given. 

You know I couldn't resist saying that since the book that sparked this series to happen is called "Ask & It Is Given" by Esther and Jerry Hicks (whose work many often refer to as Abraham Hicks).

​
​For more benefit: You can aim to explore one LOA process a day for 8 days or spread things out more and try a new process several times during the same week for 8 weeks.

You choose your own adventure with this inner work.
It's most important you go about it with an open mind and a light heart.

I loved being tagged on Instagram or LinkedIn if you decide to share about your use of the Become A Magnet For What You Desire guidebook in those places.

That way I can celebrate with you the choice you are keeping to yourself to do inner work that creates outer upgrades for you to experience.  
​
Keep growing and glowing,

Are you invisible when you use LinkedIn and maybe don't even realize it?

If you aren't gaining many meaningful connections and hearing about fantastic opportunities that fit your interests and skills, you are likely making this BIG mistake:

Putting up your profile on LinkedIn and then expecting amazing results to come your way.

Or worse, you may no longer be expecting much from LinkedIn.

Perhaps you've had your profile on there for years and it didn't gain you much.

​So you barely use it and when you do, you usually don't post or engage on other's updates much. 

Mildred Talabi will make you reimagine what you may think about LinkedIn and how you are using (or not using) it. 
​
That's why I wanted to have her on as a guest on my show Career & Life Momentum Chats. 

Mildred has demonstrated through her own brave example how life changing showing up consistently as yourself can be on LinkedIn and beyond. 

I hope hearing Mildred's perspective not only sparks you to optimize how you use LinkedIn, but to also share your voice in other new ways, too.

I'd love to know what next step you will take to start being visible on LinkedIn and on other areas of your life.

Tag me @shea ki on LinkedIn or on Instagram so I can support your posts and cheer on your personal and professional growth. 

If I ever get to meet Esther Hicks, I might just hug her hard.

I didn't know her publication "Ask & It Is Given" would be so transformative for me.

For several years, this book has been one of my go-to resources for cultivating positive career and life momentum. I often pull activities or wisdom from it for my clients, family, and friends who are exploring holistic methods for more well-being, abundance, and better relationships.

In this episode of Career & Life Momentum Chats, I'm excited to bring you my lessons learned and tips about LOA Process #8 from the book. We'll dive into how making lists of positive aspects is different than a gratitude journal, examples of lists I've created, and tips on when not to do this process. 

Now that I have built up my consistency with this process, everything I get involved in feels positively affected by it. I can point to lots of evidence of how creating lists of Positive Aspects have upgraded the quality of my days, relationships, vacations, health, financial thriving and much more. 

I hope this new mini-episode sparks you to try out this process. 

What we put our focus on expands.

​The more we express out loud what is working for us and what we are enjoying on our journey, the more likely we are to experience joy, fulfillment, and creativity in our days ahead.  

I'd love to support you on trying out this LOA Process #8 from Ask & It Is Given by Abraham Hicks.

​Send me one of your Lists Of Positive Aspects or tag me @shea.ki on Instagram when you post about yours so I can cheer you on. 

Keep growing and glowing from the inside out,

Have you ever felt beautiful from the inside out...AT A SALON?

Often, most beauty-focused spaces are so concerned with our outer appearance and skip the most important part...
---how we feel about ourselves on the inside. 

Jacquelyn Rodriquez is changing that one student, one client, and one salon owner at a time with her holistic, sustainable approach to beauty. I'm so glad she could join me for Part 2 of this Career and Life Momentum Chats episode.

Settle in for some real, soulful talk. 

Your about to hear how becoming an expert in a field that doesn't like to be questioned continues to be a challenge.

Thankfully for us, Jacquelyn is here to be revolutionary.

🦋 Keep growing and glowing from the inside out,

Maybe we're born with it. And maybe it's NOT Maybelline.

It's our intuition.

And one of the first ways we loose touch with our inner guidance often is because of damaging messages from the beauty industry.

My guest in this new episode of Career & Life Momentum Chats is Jacquelyn Rodriguez. This bold trailblazer is leading a path away from messages of "you are not enough" and other self-doubt inducing strategies that make-up, fashion, and many salons often promote. 

Jacquelyn is a holistic and sustainable salon owner, podcast host and in high-demand teacher to many students of her Clean Beauty Biz Method. Thankfully, for those us who want to see the beauty industry take a holistic and environmentally conscious approach, she doesn't shy away from huge challenges and getting out of her comfort zone. 

Jacquelyn walks her talk in listening to her intuition, too. She shares in this episode some of the hard, relatable lessons she learned that make it so she puts self-care and soul alignment at the top of her priority list.

A special note about this episode's first several minutes: 
I don't usually leave in the segment where my guest and I do some breath work to get fully present and set intentions. I chose to do that here because I've noticed in myself and others lately that our stress levels are off the charts.

It can be hard to pause and make time for our own re-alignment to our higher self throughout long, busy days.

We all have SO many responsibilities.

I hope you allow yourself to take a few deep breaths and do some self-Reiki along with us in the first few minutes of the video.

My hope is by sharing some of the "behind the scenes" here that you take this example with you into your days ahead. My wish is that it encourages you to make time, even if just for a few minutes a day, for grounding and stress-relief.  

And by the way, this is just Part 1!

Jacquelyn is such a generous, heart-centered guest on the show and leader in her field. We enjoyed chatting about an array of holistic topics for an extended amount of time.

So you'll get to see Part 2 with more of her positively contagious energy and insightful tips in an upcoming episode soon. 

Keep growing and glowing,​
