Love Letters | Catalyst for Change – Part 1 of 4

Posted on October 1, 2018March 4, 2019 by Sensei Victoria Whitfield

**I'm really excited to talk to you about this next four-week series on being a Catalyst for Change. Guess who that catalyst for change is? YOU, baby! Let's get to it.**

As you know, in every single series we start with why. Why are we catalysts for change? It's so important to know our why, to be clear on what is our purpose, what is our cause, what is our calling. The vision that is pulling us toward our new life, our new level, and keeping us focused on staying open is our Big Why. It's so important to have that motivation behind you, pushing you forward, rather than feeling like you have to really push forward on your own. Let the ocean wave of your Why carry you forward.

Our why is this: creating a world of healing businesses and healing culture. The reason why this month we're going to be talking about you as a Catalyst for Change is because you are a healer. You are not here to mess around. No. You and I, we're here to help heal, and it starts with ourselves. We heal ourselves first. Healing starts with you. Then, as you become stronger and brighter and more radiant over time in your life and business, then you extend the healing out to others.

This week in particular my guides asked me to speak to you about being a catalyst for change in the way that you speak up for yourself, especially. We're going to continue this next week, but ask yourself: what is standing in your way when it comes to speaking up for yourself? Are there certain areas in your life where you are not speaking up? Or you're not telling the whole story, not asking for what you need and what you desire?

And why do you hold back from speaking up? If our purpose is to really create healing businesses and healing corporate cultures – or healing communities, rather – that have that culture of acceptance, that culture of love, that culture of positivity, that culture of faith and positive expectations (by the way, those are the same thing), if that is the reason why we are agents for change, then ask yourself: why am I holding back my voice? Why am I perceiving myself as less than worthy than the next person to speak up?

I'd like for you to meditate on that, and I'm not going to ask you anything else. There's plenty of Why’s to go around for this week in particular! But remember where your alignment is. If you don't take anything else away from this week’s video, remember: your why is you are here as a Healer.

Doesn't matter what your industry is, what your beliefs are, what your background has been, or no matter how “healed” you are or aren’t - you are a Healer. And let’s relax and respect that this is an ongoing, evolving process. I would encourage you to begin considering where it's time for you to speak up. You're an agent of change and we're going to continue this conversation over the next four weeks so that you can open up to being that radiant catalyst for change and healing that you are.

Know this: You are a Healer. That’s your life purpose. That’s why you’re here on earth. That’s why you work where you do: you are a Healer, and you create healing culture wherever you go. #womeninbusiness #entrepreneur #inspiration @SenseiWhitfield

To keep us grounded on our journey together, “The Crystal Oracle” oracle cards are what we're going to be journeying with, this month in particular. Working with crystals, by the way, is really powerful. In the back of my Dojo office space, you can see there is Cosmic Yoni on the altar, made of a wonderful amethyst geode. You know, amethyst is my one of my most favorite crystals! And above the fireplace there is a crystal orb made of fluorite. Amethyst is for calming and used for creating a generally peaceful and relaxed environment. Then fluorite helps to have an organized mind and have consistent action. If you're thinking of getting some crystals I recommend starting there.

For this week in particular, angels, spirit guides, what do we need to know right now about opening up to being an agent of change? Why are we talking about this now? ...This crystal is what's coming forward, Stichtite in Serpentine, and look at this gorgeous coloring. Alright. I'm gonna read to you about the properties of Stichtite so we can see what wisdom it has for us:

“Meditation, clearing your energy centers, detoxifying your thoughts. Fear and negative thoughts are preventing you from experiencing peace and joy in your life. They are blocking your creativity and as a consequence your life seems dull and dreary. You can change this situation by consciously choosing to love and trust the universe instead of fearing it. Sit quietly in meditation and invoke the healing power of love, imagining yourself bathed in beautiful healing energies. Visualize all the colors of the rainbow swirling within and around you. Feel these beautiful healing colors flowing through your mind and heart and imagine your thoughts being infused with eternal light. Practice this each day as it will help transform you negative and fearful thoughts to positive inspirations. There is nothing to fear, you are eternally surrounded by love.”

This stone, in particular, is coming forward to really help us begin to understand why we are here and to have the courage to come forward as catalysts for change. It all starts in the quiet and with the nourishment of your own self first. So, specifically, the reading talked about meditation and that alchemy of our negative thoughts, turning them – or moreover sublimating them – into positive inspiration.

This is where we're going to leave off for the week. There have been things that are on your heart and mind that have been weighing on you for quite some time. I'm speaking from my heart, one soul sister to my soul brothers and sisters watching and reading this right now. There's something that's been weighing on your heart, keeping you down for quite some time now, and that very thing is ground zero of your change. That you're here to catalyze; what you're here to heal.

What wound are you here to heal?

Go ahead, type that in the comments below, send me an email back at info@victoriawhitfield.com, and share your story. This is a time for a journeying inward and really owning your wounds as sources of inspiration.

I'm here for you. Schedule a chat with me at https://www.victoriawhitfield.com/contact if you need support unearthing, processing and catalyzing your wound into healing.

I'm excited to see what we're going to create together over the next four weeks and I'll see you in the next one. Make sure that you subscribe on YouTube so you get these first every week, and I'll see you then. Bye for now!

Just for today...

Decide that today’s the day you’re finally going to speak up about it.

Be the healer of your organization, family, friend group and speak up about what has been weighing on your heart for some time and needs to change, for the highest good of all involved.

Notice how you feel in that moment - you're already healing!

Love Letters | Automate Your Vortex – Part 4 of 4

Posted on September 24, 2018March 4, 2019 by Sensei Victoria Whitfield

This is week four of four of our discussion of having a vortex-based business: your role in your career, your role as the owner of your company, or the leader of your department, is to get and stay in the vortex.

We've been talking about exactly how to make that happen. If you're not knowing what a vortex is still, and you're seeing this for the first time, make sure you stop right now, go back on my blog at victoriawhitfield.com and start from part one, where we describe everything in-depth. Because this is week four of four, and this is for the ninjas only.

Now, buckle your seatbelts, because this is for my vortex ninjas who think week one was great, week two was okay, and week three all right, playing that game. You’re happy to play that game. It's fun. But this week is for the ninjas out there who are thinking, "All right. What's next? How can we take this even higher!?” That is, you’re thinking this if you're applying what you've learned last week. 😉

So let’s turn up the volume! This week we're going to be talking about sustainability in your vortex by using automation. Automate your vortex. May you be surrounded by love bombs and love robots at all times and in all ways during your work day and in your business lifestyle, living an abundant and fabulous life. May you be constantly surrounded, supported, and filled with love in all that you do. And this is how that we get that going in a sustainable way.

Last week you began playing the game, but the limitation on playing the right game in business the way that we discussed last week is that it's dependent on YOU looking. Even the audit is dependent on you looking. What if we could automate it? OMG! This is so juicy, I know it's changed my life and my vibration, automating my vortex. I’m so excited to share this with you

My own mentor has said from the stage, in front of thousands of people, she pointed right at me and said, "This one knows exactly how to stay in the vortex. She's always in the vortex." I'm sitting there, like, "Oh my God. I'm being pointed at." LOL! But she's right, actually. Yeah. It's true. Sometimes we go above, sometimes we go below, but we're always staying in alignment here at the dojo. Why? Because there's so many elements and so many systems supporting that. I know I've got some systems engineers watching right now who are drooling like, "Take me to the automation, Victoria!!" If that's you, then this is so for you.

Ok, how can we automate your vortex? Well, if you were playing the right game last week, you started noticing how we can start “raising the roof” on your vibration. And if you're organized, you were tracking that. You want to get to the point where you have at least 50 ways to raise the roof, raise the vibration, get into a peak state, and so on in your business, in your career, or in your workspace, for example. This week in particular, you'll want to take those 50 ways and apply it to what we're talking about right now in terms of automation.

There are ways that we can make this letterhead even juicier if it was printed on a heavier weight linen paper, or if we had the gold foil for the printing of that line, just that pop of shine, you know? It about what turns you on. Or, maybe, you've noticed that it would raise the roof a little bit for you to have freshly cut flowers, even if it's frigging flowers from right outside or from the local park (as long as it's legal for you to take some of them) or ones from the local market with you. Or maybe it's always having a candle lit, or wearing your favorite fragrance while you're at work, or your power piece bit of jewelry so that you feel in the vortex, turned on and inspired.

For me, I know that on my right ring finger, I've got to have a ring, because that helps me focus. That's one simple way I've automated MY vortex. I have so many rings, but you'll see in the different videos that I'm doing each week and on social media that there's always a ring on this right ring finger. This is my right finger, everyone, and for me, this is to keep me creative. For me, it feels much more balanced in my body in particular. Now, I've studied how I feel, and that's gone on that “raise the roof” list, and I've automated that.

Other ways that you can automate – I'll just share a few more with how I've automated my vortex in my business. Up-level your voicemail message: I have clients of mine that just call to listen to my voicemail. I raised the roof on the vortex sensation and feeling of my voicemail so that anyone who hears it, if they're going to leave me a voicemail, they're going to be dropped into their heart and feel so yummy before they get to leave me a voicemail. Or how all of my team is officially trained to address anyone who is female in gender as "Goddess [insert their name]" and anyone who is male in their gender, "Sir [insert their name]." I know it sounds formal and silly, and it's supposed to sound formal and silly. I get calls and texts and emails all the time from my clients who are saying, "That made my day. I had someone calling me or emailing me, saying, 'Excuse me, Goddess Jacqueline, I’m calling for Sensei Victoria Whitfield... Excuse me, Goddess Jennifer, could you please ...” -- Why, yes I could! LOL!

How would you raise the roof on your experience of being at work? How many businesses invest in customer experience first before they invest in their employee experience? In fact, as a solopreneur, it's even more important for YOU, in particular, to pay attention to how you feel. Because the more you can automate surrounding yourself with fun, playfulness, love bombs, faith-filled quotes or uplifting experiences in your work life, the more it increases your abilities to sustain high performance. That means increasing your ability to sustain higher profits more and more with time because you're juiced by what you're doing. It keeps you open, keeps you lifted and feeling fulfilled as you continue to serve through your mission-driven business. Automate it, baby!

What are you going to automate? Are you going to change your email signature? Take my business cards, for example, the image on it: every time I see it, it puts me in the vortex. It's me on the beach, the first day I ever started my business. Just so happened to be an amazing picture that this fisherman on the beach took. Everyone who looks at my business card, every time they see it, they exhale and luxuriate, saying, "Ohhh my God. I love the beach! I want that. Tell me what you do?" When they have that reaction, I know we have a resonance. That's automated! Automate your vortex. This kind of stuff is what makes it sustainable.

My heart goes out to those of our tribe – and this is where we're going to go now to the oracle cards – who go to the Abraham Hicks events or listen to her recordings and who are like, "I got to get into the vortex. I got to get into the vortex." I feel for you, falling in and out and in and out. So listen up. Here's why you think you need to get into the vortex: It's because you haven't automated it yet! You haven't looked for, like we did last week, all those triggers that raise the roof on your vibration. You haven't then taken those triggers and put them into recurring processes. You can use technology, you can use your behavioral patterns, training, branding, décor – talk about walking into the vortex, my dojo office makes me so happy. But you’ve got to value how you feel to put all that in motion.

Just for this week, or as we say in reiki, just for today, automate your vortex.

Let's get to the oracle cards: angels of abundance. All righty. “What do we need to know right now about automating our vortex, about vortex automation?” Oh, that sounds like a course. Hey! The angels were listening. As I said that, "Quiet Retreat" popped out. This is amazing. By the airing of this video, we would have already been on the abundance mindset makeover retreat. Let me read this first, before I explain why this is amazing. It says: "It's time to disconnect from the outer world so that you can discern and process your true thoughts and feelings from your inner world. Create this quiet time for yourself and you'll have more clarity about what to do next."

I sincerely believe that every visionary, every creative, every high-achiever in business – especially if you're a solopreneur or have a small team – that you have got to create regular, strategic quite time. Or, as I call it: strategic spa retreats. This is the quiet retreat the angels are talking about. What happens is when you're unplugged from working IN your business, you're able to then work ON the business. You can make those quantum leaps, because you gave yourself enough quiet retreat from the execution to see, "Oh. THERE’S the bigger picture. If we were just working on the little stuff going in this direction, we'll only get so far. But if we just move it a little bit over here, we’ll make a quantum leap."

That's why in my visionary shaman circle we have two-day strategic spa retreats once a quarter, where you have 48 hours unplugged from technology, from your business, from your clients, and so on so that you can plug back into Source and your divine inspiration, your alignment, your next level vision. It comes to you in that quiet space.

For me in my business, I also go for strategic spa day retreats for myself personally every month. I also have strategic spa treatments every week so that I'm constantly unplugging and going to into a deep sensory experience, so that I can go within and listen at a higher level, and receive that next level vision. If you get your best ideas in the shower, that is the micro-version of what I'm talking about. Upgrade to a retreat. Our next one at the filming of this video is December 10th and 11th, the winter rebirth retreat. Go ahead to www.victoriawhitfield.com/contact to let me know if you're interested. I’d be happy to see you and welcome you there.

Again, family, automate it! And if you join my visionary shaman circle membership program, all those retreats are already on your calendar as part of the program. We are your wellness department if you are a solopreneur or if you are a small business, my team and tribe become your wellness department and your strategic planning department all rolled up into one – not to mention you can write it off as a business write-off. Reach out at info@victoriawhitfield.com if you'd like to know more. Or comment below about what comes up for you hearing all of that.
