<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you secretly believe you’re still not good enough yet?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2>Feeling like you’re always chasing the proverbial “carrot on a stick” in your personal or professional life?</h2>
<h2>Constantly searching for the next certification or next "thing" that will finally make you accepted by others?</h2>
<p>The comparison monster is a nasty opponent, and it can eat sensitive empaths like us alive from the inside, out.</p>
<p>He turns our inner dialogue into a story of struggle and exclusion, but the good news is this: we can change that right here and now!</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 11-minute love letter video, part 4 in our 5-week deep dive on living an unapologetic life, to shift your mindset and activate your instinct of worthiness again!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-4796"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"People are going to find out I'm a fraud."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Welcome back. This is week four of five, right on our five week deep dive. I'm living life unapologetically. How's this month going for you? We're really going in gangbusters. Last week we talked about the importance of celebrating yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">At the end of last week I remember I noticed something was a little bit, felt a little bit deja vu. Turns out we had two of the same oracle cards in a row. Some of you reached out, <em>"Victoria, look."</em> Yeah, so the guides, the angels are making it a point to say, <em>"We are releasing and surrendering to this unapologetic life and it can be easy."</em> </span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It doesn't have to be a push or a struggle or anything, tough. Instead, we're just opening to living unapologetically. So good, so beautiful, and it's completely in alignment with this week's channel topic, and that's your already worthy.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> What would your life look like if you were already worthy, if you believed, deep down in the core of your being, that you are already worthy? That you didn't have to lose a certain amount of weight to be worthy. That you didn't have to have as many degrees on the wall as your thermometer, right, as TD Jakes says.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you didn't have to make, have this much in the bank and be spending this much in order to be worthy, what would your life look like? What would the internal dialogue in your head look like if you sincerely believed that you were already worthy? We were covering sorry not sorry earlier this month, week two out of five. We're talking about that we're really apologizing to ourselves, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> This is more of an internal mindset shift. This doesn't have to do with anybody but you baby. What would it look like if you were already worthy? In fact, how would you carry yourself throughout the day, throughout the week, throughout the year if you believed that you were already worthy? My guides say it comes down to permission, especially permission to fail, to take risks, and to try.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Our egos are so powerful in that they're protecting us from taking risks in the first place, or even trying in the first place because ego, he's a good guy. He's trying to protect you from harm and from perceived harm, perceived danger, but he can be firing on overload. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Where we perceive harm and danger in things that are actually possibly growth opportunities for us, but we'll hold back and tell ourselves then, we come in with the story of, <em>"Well, I'm not worthy,"</em> or <em>"I'm not good enough,"</em> or <em>"People are going to find out I'm a fraud,"</em> or<em> "Someone's going to think something of me. I'm going to be critiqued,"</em> right, etc., or "What is so and so going to say?"</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> We come in with the story of unworthiness that stops our growth at our brilliance right in our tracks, but here's the thing. There's no such thing as being blocked. That's an old love letter that you might want to go dig in YouTube for, fabulous topic, but one of the universal laws is that there's no such thing as being blocked. As much as we tell ourselves the story of unworthiness, it is all just a story. It is all just an illusion. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> For this week's activity, you are going to give yourself permission to feel already worthy. The same way that a puppy, if you've ever had a brand new puppy or kitten, whatever your animal people flavor is. When they're first learning to howl or meow, they make all kinds of ridiculous sounds, or when they're first getting used to playing and running, they'll fall on their face and have a great time of it. This is just an animal, it's not even a person.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Think of babies, how they try and try, and try, but animals are unique in that they're driven by instinct, and this week in particular I'm calling on you. I'm calling on you to tap into your instinct of worthiness. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/bDdQx">‪Know this: You have an instinct of worthiness. Call on it. Decide to turn it in now.</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/bDdQx"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64" /></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> You have an instinctual worthiness that you know that you have within you, that you can just decide is turned on. I'm calling on you and your instinct for worthiness. I want you to feel it, walk in it, feel in it, speak from it, if only just for this week or just for today as we write in the love letters. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>My guides are bringing the oracle cards deck back up in the energy. Daily guidance from your angels, Doreen Virtue. I'd be interested to see if maybe we'll have a three in a row. Angels what do we need to know right now about believing and living as if we're already worthy? Life purpose, the purpose of your life is to serve in a way that brings great joy to yourself and others.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Don't worry about finding your purpose. Instead, focus upon serving a purpose and then your purpose will serve you. This is where we'll leave off this week.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> I'm sinking deep into my heart for members of our tribe, for you, if you're watching and you would love to argue with me that you are not worthy. You are staunch about, <em>"I am not worthy. I am not ready. I am not good enough."</em> I'm sending you big love, so much love, and healing energy, sending to you.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The angels are bringing this card forward, my guides tell me, especially because for those of us where we believe that we're really not worthy, then the bridge to believing in your own worth is having a purpose that is worthy of your attention, of your energy and of your calling. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>If you can't believe in yourself yet, find something to believe in. It could be a cause for animal rights. It could be a cause of helping out people in your community that are disadvantaged. It could be for standing for different issues, of serving a purpose.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1"> What causes you to feel passionate? My mentor, Fabian, says that your passions are not random. They are actually your calling. </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1"><strong>Tap into your passions this week, if you are feeling that you are not worthy and you are not good enough. Instead, lean on serving a purpose first until you will realize that even without that purpose you were already worthy.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Come and blow. Send me an email back. Write me back, a letter in the mail. You know I love, love letters. Thank you to all of those of you who've sent them. Oh my gosh, that's just like, that's not even all of them. Feeling so much love, thank you, thank you for that. </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first, every week, and by the way, if you need an extra shot of positivity and you want to learn how to really value yourself and raise your vibration at will, join us at the next Master Manifester Challenge.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">There will be a link in the description box or somewhere on this page, or around this video, so that you can join in, and we can interact live. You're just watching these videos. I want to see you too. I will see you soon. Next week is our last,</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Are you putting off living life unapologetically?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2>Do you believe others can pursue their passions and dreams now, but not you?</h2>
<h2>Feel like you'll have permission to be yourself "later" - like when you get the perfect job, spouse, baby, retirement, body, etc.?</h2>
<p>Most sensitive entrepreneurs put off living life fully and openly for fear of criticism, shaming and judgement.</p>
<p>And these low-vibrational feelings distract us empathically from the reasons why we must show up in life and business unapologetically, now.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 11-minute Love Letter, the first installment in our 5-week series, to remember why you must live your life unapologetically.</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-4521"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"Welcome to a brand new you!"</b></span></em></p>
<p><strong>This is a brand new five-week deep dive series that we're going to be doing on the topic of living an unapologetic life.</strong> Every year, I pick a word that is the theme for the year for me personally. Last year, my theme was <em>Supported;</em> how I want to feel. This year in particular, <em>Unapologetic Ease</em> is actually the full intention and sensation that I'm going for this year in particular. My guide said, “Let's start off the year bringing in the entire tribe around what it looks like and what's at stake behind living life <em>unapologetically</em>.”</p>
<p><strong>As you know, by now, when we do these multi-week deep dive series, it's so that you and I can have time to really get into the nuts and bolts of these topics.</strong> Also, we always begin with why. We start with why because we're conjuring energy, we're conjuring attention and focus around this new learning topic. If you're looking to start new projects and generate energy, you start with why. There are other reasons for you to start with why, such as: getting clear on what you're passionate about, clarifying focus and reeling in, honing in energy not just of your own but also of your team around you. So starting with why rocks!</p>
<p><strong>This week, let's look at <em>why</em> you should live life unapologetically.</strong> Here's the thing: When we live life apologetically, we go throughout our days and go throughout our businesses, our meetings, our relationships, even the thoughts that we think in our heads going round and around thinking, “I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry,” or, “This is a really sorry circumstance,” or the wah-wah kind of energy is what follows us around when we live life apologetically. Even when we're trying to get to our seat in the movie theater, we say repeatedly:“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.” Is this you? Is that just your automatic thing to say, "I'm sorry", when someone calls on you or when you have a question or when you call someone up or think … Is that the way that you meet the world, as "<em>I'm sorry?"</em></p>
<p><strong>If the way that you are meeting the world is leading with I'm sorry, then you are automatically blocking all the love, all the abundance, the support and healing that Source is pouring on you.</strong> Write this down: Saying I'm sorry means don't support me, I'm bad. Saying I'm sorry means don't support me because I'm bad.</p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/B9JAM">Know this: Constantly saying I'm sorry blocks #abundance; the universe hears it as "don't support me because I'm wrong." @SenseiWhitfield</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/B9JAM"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64" /></a></h2>
<p><strong>You should not be full of shame in the way that you meet the world.</strong> The reason why we want to live life unapologetically is so that you have all the energy that you need to meet life confidently and full of joy, full of radiance. We need your light.</p>
<p><strong>Healers, you've got to meet the world unapologetically because you have a powerful, powerful purpose, and we need you now more than ever.</strong> Entrepreneurs, you're here to solve problems. You're a problem solver. You've seen an issue and you're like, “Oh, I have a solution.” We need you to come to life unapologetically because there's plenty of problems out there that if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have the solution for.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>It's time for you to come out of your shell and step into life unapologetically. Why? Because we need YOU.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Now, also, be kind to yourself if you think that you should stave off living life unapologetically until retirement or on, “When I get married, I'll be unapologetic about myself. That's when I can let myself go.”</strong> By the way, it’s not how that works, or, “Maybe when I get that big client, I can finally book a massage because I don't deserve self-care until I make a certain amount of money.” No. Oh my goodness. Be kind to yourself if you're pushing off living life unapologetically. "I'm not going to travel the world until I’ve retired at 67 or 72 or whenever the years are when I'm too tired to really be going around the world, yeah, that's when I'll live life unapologetically." Or "I’ll wait until I'm older to be taken seriously because I'm a female or I'm a young man or whatever, and that means because I'm young or because I'm female, that means you can't really take me seriously."</p>
<p><strong>Stop apologizing. Why are you living life unapologetically? You have a purpose now. You can live life like you mean it. You can live life like you own it now, and we need you now.</strong> We needed you, as they say in New York. We needed you yesterday. Let's make a commitment this week in particular to invoke this concept of living life unapologetically. For the next five weeks, we're going to dive deep into it. Are you ready?</p>
<p>Accompanying us on our journey into living life unapologetically is the oracle cards deck <em>Daily Guidance From Your Angel</em>s by Doreen Virtue, one of the many oracle cards decks. You can send in your donation deck to the dojo. Go ahead to naturalintuition.com and look for the <a href="http://www.victoriawhitfield.com/contact">Contact page</a>, my mailing address is there. Thank you to all my loves who sent in donation decks. It's amazing. You should see how many people have been benefiting from your generosity. I’ll try to post more pictures. I'm not going to apologize though. Yes, yes. Okay.<em> Angels, what do we need to know this week in particular about why we need to live life unapologetically?</em> Oh, that felt strong.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Perfect Timing.</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>Perfect Timing: Now is the perfect moment for you to act on your inspirations. The doors are open while you walk through them with us by your side. Don't delay or procrastinate as all of the ingredients are ripe for your success. Everything and everyone is on your side supporting your positive outcome.</strong></em></p>
<p>Where we're going to leave off this week is that why should you live an unapologetic life is because Now is the time. There are opportunities, the angels are saying, that, if you have the confidence and the presence and the energy to step into, your whole life would change, and so will the lives of all those around you, in your community, in your family, on your team. We need you now. Can you see that first word? Now is the perfect moment. Now more than ever.</p>
<p><strong>Go ahead, type in the comments below how is this perfectly on time, this topic of living life unapologetically.</strong> We are walking into this as a new year - regardless of when you're watching or reading this, by the way. At the time that this airs, it will be a new year in 2018, but we are walking into this new year as if Now is when we're worthy, Now is when we can live life unapologetically.</p>
<p>What would that mean to you? Go ahead and type in the comments below. I want to hear it. I want to read it. Share, send me videos back, send me an e-mail back at info@victoriawhitfield.com. That comes straight to me. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube so that you get these love letters first every week and I will see you next time for part two of five. See you soon. Bye.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kFcMWYRneN0?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you identify as a High-Achiever, or goal-oriented?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Are you always pushing yourself to get more things done and slaying your To-Do Lists?</h2>
<h2>And when things aren’t going as expected, do you feel frustrated or like you’re “not good enough”?</h2>
<p>They say that life is not about the destination: it’s about the Journey.</p>
<p>But this aphorism poses a problem when we are taught to value being an Achiever in life and business.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 10-minute Love Letter video, the second of a 4-week series to Awaken your Shaman Within, and shift your focus from just doing more to being more!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-5339"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"As soon as I complete a task, I feel like I have to jump to the next."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">We are on week two of four exploring how to awaken your Shaman within in your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>As a business Reiki master, I help others balance the energy, ground and clear the energy of themselves and their businesses to free up flow of cash and clients, as well as a greater quality of life in the process.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Your regular Reiki master's just working on your physical body, your emotional health, but for me I specialize in entrepreneurs and sending healing energy to your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">This week in particular we're looking at the power of achieving versus journeying in business.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I don't know if you've done your strengths finder yet but if you haven't taken that assessment, I highly recommend it. It's extremely insightful for celebrating your strengths as the leader of your teams, as the leader of your business. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> For me, one of my top five strengths is achiever. So, that means I'm really good at getting shift done. You and me both, aren't we the best at implementing and destroying the checklist and implementing systems. We get so much shift done.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's why are such high achieving entrepreneurs, business owners and leaders. But then, the bigger the front, the bigger the back, as they say in ancient Chinese medicine.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, where we're high at achieving, if we're not achieving, it's not going as expected or if it's not having the breakthrough, then what happens to our identity in the process? The great thing about Shamanism is it takes the perspective of honoring the journey especially in the practice of Shamanic journeying.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That whole experience of going through spaces and having sensory encounters with different people, different animals, different environments, all of that is significant. All of the entire journey, every step along the way is just as significant as the end. There is the old adage of it's not about the destination but it's actually life is about the journey that gets you there.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/Zq4ml">‪Know this:Achievers can get addicted to valuing quantity over quality of life and #business. Shift your #mindset to value quality first! 🙏</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/Zq4ml"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64" /></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> So this week in particular, you want to be on the lookout for your achiever popping up and really deleting all of the amazing juice that got you to the achievement. How many brilliant leaders have so many things that they've accomplished, and they've barely acknowledged that they've accomplished them before they're off to the next thing.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The flip side of that emotionally and, I don't know who I'm speaking to, but I could feel you watching through the camera right now, the flip side of that is that we end up feeling like we're never doing enough. We touched on that last week. We're never really feeling like we're fully connected or fully satisfied because we're on to the next, on to the next, on to the next.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> So this week in particular, the Guides are asking you to adopt the journey-centric mindset as opposed to the achievement-centric mindset. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>I know a lot of us tend to base our success off of the sense of how much can I get done, how many clients can I make, how many dollars can I win, how many connections can I make? If you're out networking, how many business cards can I grab, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Life is the journey that brings you to those achievements, and the more you can appreciate what you have, the more good you will attract. That is the way the universe works. I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling in the energy. Earth Magic, let me come in closer for this part. Earth Magic by Steven D. Farmer, one of over 20-something decks that we have here at the Dojo. Always receiving donations and thank you for those of you who have sent in your decks or sent gifts. I love gifts, thank you.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Most of the stuff here has actually been gifts including this space, so thank you so much for all your support over the years. Guides, what do we need to know right now about having an achievement-centric mindset versus a journey-centric mindset?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Ooooh, this is so good. I'm getting a hot flash. You know I'm too young for that. Ocean, ebb and flow. Ebb and flow. This couldn't be better. I love it. I love it, I love it. Send me some love back if you just caught that energy wave. So good. What a brilliant way for us to leave off this week. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, it's not to say that you will never achieve anything, and it's bad to be an achiever. No. I'm with you. That's one of my top five strengths. I have got to celebrate that and create a life that celebrates me being naturally wired to be a high-achieving individual and have a business that is high-achieving.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But at the same time, fulfillment in life and having a state of balance and enjoyment has got to involve ebb and flow. There's ocean upon ocean upon ocean of abundance out there for you to absolutely go get it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> There's no upper limit on pleasure and there's upper limit on wealth. You can have as much and you can create as much. There's no upper limit on creativity, as much as you desire, but it's important for you to find that balance between appreciating the journey and appreciating the achievement. That's your homework this week.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">How can you in your business, or if you don't have a business, at your corporation, at your workplace, how can you create a balance between appreciation for the achievements that you've done, the things that you've finished or have moved along, as well as appreciate. You know what? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">That was a really great conversation. That meeting was really beautiful. I appreciate how far we've come even though we haven't finished yet. I appreciate how you show up.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> To all my leaders and managers, my executives out there, business owners, how are you appreciating the journey with your team? As well as, if you don't even have a team, within yourself? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Are you appreciating and present to all of the brilliance along the way?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">With that in mind, we will see you next week. The universe agrees. We'll see you soon. Bye.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you have a hard time connecting and communicating with your clients?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Is your marketing message or mission statement unclear or ‘not quite there’ yet?</h2>
<h2>Have you been feeling ungrounded in your business, like something foundational is missing?</h2>
<p>Be kind to yourself: you have yet to awaken your true potential.</p>
<p>Inside every spiritual entrepreneur is a Visionary, an inner intuitive shaman who can see the way forward.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week’s 10-minute Love Letter video, the first of a 4-week series, to Awaken your Shaman Within and take your business to the next level!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-5306"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I think my communication with my clients is going well."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Whether you are looking to improve the quality of your personal or professional life, let this love letter be your reminder that you are not alone and that together we can make that happen.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> This next four week series is going to be really powerful because the guides want you to awaken your shaman within. We're going to take the next four videos to cover this as a topic integrating shamanism and the shamanic perspective into your business and into your professional life for better grounding, creativity, innovation and communication.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> As always, in these series we begin with a mediation around why. Why is it time for you to awaken your shaman within? Let me come a little closer. I know, you're like, <em>"Oh my God, you're far away,"</em> right? It's time for you to awaken your shaman within, and the reason why is that source is calling you to better connect to your employees and your clients.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> This is about communication, communication, communication, baby. I'm sure you've taken so many communications courses, gone to the events, gone and done all of the workshops and gotten your certifications and things, sensitivity training and so on and so forth. Be kind to yourself, it's not that you're not good enough, as to why communication is coming back up again, but it's actually because you are being called to go higher.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> There's a huge difference. This is the tweetable of the week, there's a huge difference between feeling not good enough versus being called to go higher. And that's where this concept of bringing shamanism and awakening your inner-shaman in your business and in your professional life, that's why this is coming forward.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>

<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Let's talk about this a little bit more. The word shaman, in western culture we tend to think of shaman as some dude, first of all, I'm female. Some dude up on the mountain top or in the jungle with his junk hanging out and paint on his face, looking regal and natural and fabulous and super spiritual and hits you with the oak leaves and clears your energy.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I know you don't think that but I've got to get to the lowest common denominator, so we can all find ground. So not to knock anybody who believes that but some people, that's the first emotional, kind of guttural reaction that they get when they hear shaman. <em>"Why the ... I own a plumbing company, why would I want to be a shaman in my ... that's ridiculous. You're a weirdo."</em> Right?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> So be kind to yourself if that comes up or be kind to yourself if others have said that to you. We'll be weird together for the next four weeks, or if you've been following my love letters for a while, baby, we've been weird together for years. So good, right?</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The word shaman actually comes from the Siberian Tungus tribe and it means one who sees in the dark. One who sees in the dark. My guides are telling me to actually shut the lights for a little bit. When things start getting darker in life or a bit more uncertain, it can cause your ability to see detail to decrease, right? So if I were to go and cut the corner light out here, it's even hard to see me. The uncertainty is increasing because it's getting darker.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Now I'm not going to go completely dark but this is just to make the point, what if when I turned that light off you were still able to see me and you were still able to see how many fingers am I holding up? If you have the ability to see in the dark when others can't, you are, according to the Tungus tribe you're a shaman, but my more contemporary terms you are a leader.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> It gives you the ability to, I'm just going to cut the light back on. It gives you the ability to better communication with your environment because you have access to more energy and wisdom, and that is why this month we are awakening your shaman within.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> By the way, go ahead and click the link below this video if you want to join us live in the Berkshires, so that you can come to the retreat, the Awakening the Shaman Within Retreat, so you can learn these practices in depth, me and you and our tight-knit tribe of visionary entrepreneurs and business owners. So, links below.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> But let's continue on this topic of being the visionary, because that's what it means to be the shaman. You are one who sees in the dark. You're the leader, and that is where we're going higher in your ability to communicate in your business, access to information, innovation, creativity, certainty and confidence, so that you can best lead your teams or best lead your clients and customers to all go higher together in the process.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Now I'm hearing the oracle cards calling in the energy. All month we're going to be journeying with earth magic, our shamanic deck by<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Steven D Farmer, an amazing, amazing author. Just go check out his stuff. One of many beautiful oracle card decks that we have here at the dojo. Guides, what do we need to know right now about why it really is the time now to awaken our shaman within in business?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I just cut that. Bam, lightning, power. Here's where we're going to leave off for this week. Lightning is re-polarizing the electrical charge of an environment. Perhaps now more than even you need another level of resource, another level of perspective in order to deal with the charged environment that you are moving through. Just like a bolt of lightning is powerful and it is a burst of insights that brings neutrality between that thunder cloud and the earth below her.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1"> So maybe it's the tense environment of restructuring at your corporation, your organization. Or maybe it is that charge of discomfort that is going on between team members. They're just not communicating very well because of limited perspective. Or, I'm going to do a pun on charge is what I'm hearing to say, that even this is your discomfort with receiving more money or raising your rates. You need a higher vibrational perspective and higher mindset to help you make it there, and your shaman within can see the way forward.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Comment below, tell me what comes up for you and throw your tomatoes at me by the way if you have any tomatoes on this. Like, <em>"You can't bring shamanism into business."</em> Bring it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>I'd love to hear both the light and the dark. You know I love you just the way you are. So get ready for the rest of this month, we're going to be continuing down this line of discussion on awakening your shaman within. I look forward to seeing you at the retreat.</strong> </span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Tired of being the only one actually getting things done?</em></span></h2>
<h2>Have you noticed that this is a pattern in your life, of being the responsible "finisher"?</h2>
<h2>Ever wonder why this keeps happening over and over again?</h2>
<p>I have to be the one to break it to you, so that you can have your breakthrough: it’s not “them” or everybody else being lazy, it’s You.</p>
<p>The good news is, we’re going to spend the rest of the month shifting this, together.</p>
<p><strong style="color: #008080;">Watch this weeks 9-minute Love Letter video, the first of a five-week series on “From Me to We Mindset”, to begin learning how to get out of your own way and stepping into exponential growth and impact.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-5525"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I'm so busy, I just can't take it anymore."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I'm excited to announce to you that we're beginning a new four-week series on From Me to We, the transition to living a tribal, cooperate lifestyle. So if you're watching this right now, stay tuned. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Make sure that you are getting these first, every single week, because this series is going to be absolutely transformational. Why? Because it's time for you to step into your calling.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This month, this time, this week, this day, in particular, you are going to learn exactly how to step into your calling in a way that leverages your unique brilliance and really optimizes the resources that you have gathered around you already. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>We're gonna go through the exactly how, but you know me, if you've been following these Love Letters for a while now, you'll understand that we begin with the why.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Why is it time to transition from me to we? Well, I bet you could fill in the blank, but what my guides told me to tell you is that you are called to exponential growth this year. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>You are called to exponential growth this year. Go ahead, type that in the comments below. Share that.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That's the notice for this week. Tweet it out, right? Put a blocky thing on Instagram. Let the world know that you are called to exponential growth this year. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> The only thing that is standing between you and exponentiating your impact, exponentiating your income, and exponentiating your sense of wellness and sense of fulfillment in life is your mindset.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/5Ya01">Know this:&nbsp;You are being called to exponential impact.</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://ctt.ec/5Ya01"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64"></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The main issue with your mindset is we have a me, I mindset that is dominating your life and your business, your career, if you don't have a business just yet, right?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> So be kind to yourself. If you have the whole strong, independent insert here, right, I'm not just talking to the woman now. Come on, guys, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I know I have all the colors and fluffy things here, it's very feminine, and men understand these issues too. Shout out to all my guys who receive my Love Letters. Mwah. You guys rock.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> But be kind to yourself. If you're the only one doing things, and you're getting frustrated because your plate goes from crickets empty, to, oh my God, I can't take it anymore full, back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I can barely even say that 'cause I'm so out of alignment with it. I understand where you're coming from. I've been working tooth and nail, right, with my intuitive healers, right, and my mentors, my team, to help me to wrench out of the, I do everything mindset, so that we can take this on an exponential weave. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> But this month, in particular, I'm gonna start sharing what the guides have been sharing with me about how we can transition from me to we.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Or as I think of one of my private clients who is an amazing salon owner. She just inspires other salon owners from all over. We had this conversation around moving from the technician to the teacher, right?&nbsp;</span><span class="s1">From technician to even leadership where we're so detailed and well-trained on exactly how to do the things, that we are driven to go and do the things. On a good day, maybe you could cut 10 heads of hair, but what if you have 100 walk-ins? It's time to transition from me to we. We're gonna be doing that this month because you are called to exponential growth.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Now, I'm hearing the oracle cards for the month calling in the energy. Let me come in a wee bit closer. Life purpose. Oracle cards deck by Doreen Virtue is who we're going to be journeying with all month.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Angels, what do we need to know about why it's time to transition from the me mindset to the we mindset? Let's see. Hmm. Career change. You're embarking upon a career that brings you the joy and abundance you desire and deserve. Oh my. That's a doozy. Couldn't have said it better myself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>It's more important now than ever for you to shift your mindset because you are stepping into receiving the joy and abundance that you deserve, right? Once you are open to receiving and being cooperative and collaborative, you can enjoy that abundance that you've visualized having and, no, it's not selfish to desire that because abundance, by the way, is just a reflection of how much impact you're having, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">No shame in that. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> It's also time for you to enjoy the journey. Enjoy the journey there. You don't have to be the hard work hero. We'll talk about that later this month, but that's not something that's going to win you a medal in war, or something. It's time for a career change. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">Even if you're keeping the same business, and the same job, the light is going to turn on up top, right? You see the lighthouse? That is going to be you. There's even an angel in there. Check it out. Good stuff, right?</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> So let's turn on this month together. What's coming up for you hearing all that? That's it for this weeks' reading. Go ahead and comment below, right? Send me an email back, describe what's coming up for you. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> Remember if there's any way that I can help you balance your mind, body and business, just let me know!</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> We'll see you next time.</span></p>

<p><strong>Be on the lookout to see if you’re the only one getting things done that are impactful. </strong></p>

<h2><strong>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? <em>YOU, baby!</em> Let's get to it.</strong></h2>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Our why is this: creating a world of healing businesses and healing culture.</strong> 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.</p>
<p>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?</p>
<p><strong>And why do you hold back from speaking up?</strong> 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?</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>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.</strong> 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.</p>

<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>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?</strong> 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:</p>
<p><em>“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.”</em></p>
<p><strong>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.</strong> 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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>What wound are you here to heal?</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>I'm here for you. Schedule a chat with me at </strong><strong><a href="http://www.victoriawhitfield.com/contact">http://www.victoriawhitfield.com/contact</a></strong><strong> if you need support unearthing, processing and catalyzing your wound into healing.</strong></p>
<p>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!</p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">--</span></p>
<h2><strong>Just for today...</strong></h2>
<h3>Decide that today’s the day you’re finally going to speak up about it.</h3>
<h3>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.</h3>
<h3>Notice how you feel in that moment - <em>you're already healing!</em></h3>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QeI-eGi4mYY?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Do you feel like you're called to support others?<br />
</em></span></h2>
<h2><em>Are you a leader or manager in your home or your organization?<br />
</em></h2>
<h2><em>Wish you had the energy to serve more people?<br />
</em></h2>
<p>This month, we're going to talk about exactly what resource can fuel you for the long-haul continuing to show up in service.</p>
<p>That resource, that essential nutrient is: loving yourself.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 12-minute Love Letter video to find out exactly WHY loving yourself is the key to truly loving others.<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-4333"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I'm always the one giving advice."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This month I'm so excited to get to share with you the next deep dive topic that we're going to be going through over the next four weeks together. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As you know, my guides have said that it's time that you and I continue to have a deeper relationship and probe deeper into the perks of life together so that we can have more intimate bond and better understand each other as well as ourselves, so that we can lift up our communities and our clients together in the process.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> So this month's deep dive topic is loving yourself.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Loving yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Now, I'm sure that you've heard about loving yourself from so many people and different teachers, different books, that you may have gone through.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But loving yourself is a powerful, powerful, powerful nutrient that fuels the greatest healers and leaders, period. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>If you are called to serve others, right, to take care of others, to make sure that they're okay and support the community, support your clients, support your family, that means that you are a leader and that you are a healer.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> And you know what it's like to love others. You're used to it. You're really accustomed to being that loving presence, that supportive presence to others and that's beautiful. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Also it can get draining. It can get so draining when you're always being the strong one. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You're the one giving the advice, the support, dishing out the transformation, the information, the coordination, all the things, you being the anchor.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What happens sometimes is that in the course of being service-oriented, right? We show up to serve. We show up to give. It's so generous. It's so powerful. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> What happens sometimes is that we forget that we need. The one who is serving and supporting the tribe, whatever your tribe looks like, don't forget we also need to fill our cup.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So we're going to take the next four weeks to cover exactly how to begin loving yourself. Now more than ever my guides say you've got to hear this message and the people that you support need you to love yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you know me very well. You know that my number one muse and mentor is RuPaul, the drag queen. RuPaul, I love him, I love him from the bottom of my heart. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">He taught me how to love myself and his phrase, his mantra is, <em>"If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love anybody else?"</em> </span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Can I get an amen? Everyone's like, Amen, yes. Yeah, I love RuPaul. I love you, I love you, I love you. If you ever see this, thank you. You've changed my life.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> With that, every single healer and every single leader has got to have a regular practice of self-love and taking care of yourself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As is the custom here at the Dojo, we start with why so we're going to go through different, exactly how processes. You know that I dish out homework. Here just for today is what you're going to do. That's who I am. I'm a teacher at heart. That's what we do, right? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> With that, we want to make sure that you start with why so that you understand exactly what's the fuel behind loving yourself because if you don't understand what's the fuel, what's the inspiration, what's the motivation behind loving yourself, you're not going to do it.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You're not. It's just going to go to the bottom or not even catch the task list. It's not even going to be on the back burner. It's just going to get thrown out the window or in the trash can, your self-love, your self-care.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Now I believe in starting with why and those of you who are watching who love Simon Sinek, I'm sure you're feeling me.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The reason why it's time for you to love yourself is because you're a healer and because you're a leader, because you're the caregiver. The reason why you're going to love yourself and learn how to do it on a whole new level this month in particular is because you're called to support others. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> The vision that the guides send to illustrate this why is that you're here quenching others' thirst. There are people who are thirsty for what you have got.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Maybe you have incredible advice. Maybe you're a fantastic cook. Maybe you're a beautiful and profound listener. Perhaps no one delegates and coordinates better than you. You're the best person to organize people, right? You're a people person.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Or perhaps you're a Mom or a Dad, and you're the one taking care of your kids. You've got to lead them and love them and teach them so that they can grow and feel safe as wholly grounded and well-rounded human beings.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So as you are called to be the leader, to show up to give, you're quenching these people's thirst with the energy that you are giving constantly, constantly quenching your thirst.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1"> How much water do you drink each day? There's so much body that our bodies need. We're above 70% made of water. If you're the one quenching the thirst, how do you do that? How do you get water?</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Let's do it on a mundane level before we take it to the illustration level. How do you get water to bring it to someone? You get a cup, you know, you get a cup, you go over to a faucet of some sort and you bring the cup to them and say, <em>"Here"</em> or you help them.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> So, you see what happened right there? You had a cup, brought it over to the faucet or you had a pitcher and brought it over to the faucet, some sort of source of water, and then you went to offer them the cup or to pour them a drink.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is the illustration behind why it's time for you to love yourself, the guides are sending to you. It's very simple. We don't do things complex here. The simpler, the better and the faster you can implement, the more you can integrate it.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/dH80t"><strong><span class="s1">Know this: The people that you support need you to love yourself.</span></strong></a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/dH80t"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64" /></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The self-love comes in having the faucet. If you were to pour someone a cup of water, you wouldn't take your boob and squirt them out like, oh my God, or you wouldn't try and cry into a cup so that they could drink your tears or any other of your fluids or blah. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Unless you're a Mom, you're giving your breast milk to your baby, but typically you don't offer of yourself in order to quench others' thirst. You go to the water source, right?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This is the illustration of what loving yourself is so that you can continue to show up in service. Fill your cup first, fill your pitcher first before you go out and serve others. By the way, once you have your water source, you can serve people more of the time. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You can serve more people more of the time in a sustainable ongoing way. This is why its time for you to learn how to love yourself and find your love resource so that you can continue to fill up and bring more, and fill up and bring more. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span class="s1">So that you're pouring from abundance rather than from lack.</span></strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Now, I'm hearing the Oracle Cards calling for the week. It is The Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards, my favoritest, favorite deck. Thank you, Doreen Virtue for making this. And thank you to Success Express that originally Bonnie and Susan, they originally donated it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Goddesses, what do we need to know right now about loving ourselves? Why? Show us why.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Oh, this is so good. Damara, guiding children. You are good at helping, counseling and healing children. Use your skills to help children now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>So my guides are taking me, so on one level, yes, we're talking to those of you who are parents and teachers.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Loving yourself, you need the strength to be able to hold space for the children that you are taking care of, that demand an extremely high amount of your energy, your investment, your time, your love. And you want to be there for the kids, and take excellent care of them.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> But on another level my guides are taking me to those who are entrepreneurs, leaders and managers, where you are guiding the inner child or those who are under your care.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You are good at helping, counseling and healing others, and you want to care for those who are in your charge at the same level that a loving parent would take care of their children. </span><span class="s1">Your employees are your children. Your clients are your children. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>You want to protect them and love on them at the same level that you would for your children but in order to do that, in order to get the strength that you need, you've got to have that source of energy.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This month, we're going to show you exactly how to get that.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> So go ahead and comment below. Send me an email back. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>What's coming up for you seeing this card and this topic? Do you feel that this topic is timely?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Make sure that you subscribe on YouTube so that you get your love letters first every week and we'll see you next time. Bye. See you soon.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Frustrated that things have come to a standstill professionally?<br />

<h2><em>Unsure if your business or even your life is really going somewhere or making an impact?</em></h2>

</em></h2>
<p>It's natural to feel resistance on the path to personal and spiritual expansion — you're only human!</p>
<p>More often than not, it is because we have forgotten why we started in the first place. That's why we have to <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="http://www.exposeyourselfusa.com/video-production/miami-video-production/"><span style="text-decoration: none; color: #666;">find best video production in Miami FL</span></a>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Watch this week's 13-minute love letter video to revisit your why, and discover the hidden power that you forgot you had!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-3324"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="color: #800080;"><b>"I&nbsp;don't remember why I started this in the first place."</b></span></em></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> This week in particular, The Guides are asking you to revisit your big why. Your big why. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>So, if you haven't seen the TedX talk by Simon Sinek, called Start With Why, I highly recommend that after this Love Letter video you go check him out. He's a fantastic resource on inspirational leadership.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">He's someone that I admire very much and get a lot of energy from his wonderful, wonderful teachings and philosophies but basically, the gist of his talk is that how we motivate ourselves and people in life is by sharing and be attuned to why we do what we do. Not what, not how but why?</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Now, your big why might be the why behind why you had kids or the why behind why you got married or the why behind you being in business or the why behind your in this company. The why you believe what you believe.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But, your big why is an energetic resource. It's an energetic resource in your life. We got to remember what it is in order to derive energy from it. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Admittedly, I don't have the perfect memory, right? But, you remember your phone number. You remember your address hopefully. But, if you don't remember why you're doing what you're doing right now in the first place, your center, where you ground, your alignment, your essential energy in your alignment is off. It's a bit crunched. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2049 size-full" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png" alt="TWEETOFTHEWEEK" width="462" height="86" srcset="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK.png 462w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-300x56.png 300w, https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/TWEETOFTHEWEEK-460x86.png 460w" sizes="(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px" /></p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/biUE4">Know this: You remember your phone number &amp; address, but do you remember WHY you're doing what you're doing?</a></h2>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="http://ctt.ec/biUE4"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-2243" src="https://victoriawhitfield.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tweetbutton-300x129.gif" alt="tweetbutton" width="150" height="64"></a></h2>
<p class="p1"><strong>That natural flow of juice, that creative inspirational juice that you get from being connected to your big why is pinched off from your lack of knowledge.</strong></p>
<p class="p1">Maybe it's forgetting why you're doing what you're doing or you may not have even stated what your big why is in the first place. Maybe you genuinely don't know. It's not that you even forgot.</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The title that The Guides asked for this Love Letter is revisit your why but I'm getting a vibe from who's watching right now, I don't know if this is you but you don't even know what your ... Why you're doing what you're doing. Why you're studying this in college or why you started your business other than, <em>"I need money!"</em> Right? Or, you don't even know why you really married the person. It's just like, <em>"They asked and I was there and the priest and here we are 25 years later." </em></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Going through the motions.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In a previous Love Letter we were talking about being intentional, which is really important. To set the stage that you're not just going through the motions in life but at this point in time, The Guides want you to revisit your why that can support you in being more intentional now. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>It gives you a lot more energy and sauce, right? The juice. The juice, the fuel behind your decisions, behind how you speak and show up in life, behind your actions.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Want me to share with you my big why? Why I do what I do. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Here through the Dojo is because I believe that within every visionary leader is a creative being called the inner child who's the source of an unlimited amount of energy that one unleashed, can heal not only that person, herself/himself, but also all those who they come in contact with because they are a natural born leader. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Natural born leaders, I believe, are highly sensitive individuals. They're sensitized to things that other people just kind of don't pick up on. It's not that they're superior, they're just sensitive.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">With that, I believe, that you as a visionary leader have got to heal your relationship with your inner child so that you can show up with that amount of energy, fully supported, abundant, and at ease as you get out there and serve the world in a bigger way. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> What's behind all of what I do? Why I do what I do? The color, right? The shimmies, the rainbows and butterflies and jokes and silly pants ness. It's because I believe in making your inner child feel as safe as possible so that she can emerge from the traumatic shell that she went into because of whatever happened, she can emerge and unleash all of that inner power, that creative resource. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">That flow, infinite flow of energy that you have inside of you. That is why I do what I do.</span></strong></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Simon very beautifully says that our big why often comes from our own pain and so, absolutely a big why comes from big pain. There's a thing that I witnessed in my childhood that caused me to forget from age eight back. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My life. It's like a dark cloud and so, since then, I've had to really explore what is identity? What is energy because I've always been naturally sensitive to people's emotions or a spiritual energy, food, sound. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>I've always had this sensitized relationship to it. Why? Because my inner child is on super protective mode.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">She doesn't want that scary thing to happen again so she's going to super sensitize me to all things around. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> But, that has catapulted me to doing a deep dive, basically committing that for the rest of my life. I know I'm committed now, as much as I am since I first started, looking into what is energy? What is identity? What is psychology?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Learning more about philosophy and spiritual reality and how that effects each present moment so that I can show up as the best self that I can. The more I dove into healing my inner child, the more energy I had to show up in the world. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>I don't know who I'll be in five, 10, 20 years from now but this was built intentionally over time. I didn't come out of the womb shimming.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> The story goes when I came out of the womb I was over eight pounds. I was a big pink ball and they actually almost killed me that day to save my mother. That's another story but anyway. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Revisit your big why. </span></strong><span class="s1"><strong>Your big why often comes from a traumatic experience.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It doesn't mean that someone tried to kill you or you forgot your childhood or you got sexually assaulted or something like that. Your trauma might be the loss of face or humiliation in school or your family became&nbsp;wealthy but lost it all. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It could have been something that you saw, it didn't even happen to you but it was such an intense thing that you witnessed that it effected you irrevocably for the rest of your life. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong> Be kind to yourself because the inner child, she sits on this unlimited power called your vulnerability and creativity. Once that's unleashed, you have every resource at your fingertips but that's big magic.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Spooky scary if you're not used to being vulnerable. I'm starting to hear the oracle cards calling the energy around that but revisit your why.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Why did you start your business in the first place? From one business owner to another, why? What are you doing? Why are you doing what you're doing right now?</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Why'd you buy your house in that area for the first place? Why did you buy that outfit? Why did you marry this person? Why did you pick this person to date? Why did you go to this school? Revisit your why.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Oracle cards deck is the indigo angel oracle cards. This is specifically designed for empathic, highly sensitive individuals who, because of their sensitivity, are being primed for leadership.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I don't think that's how Doreen Virtue puts it but, this is how The Guides tell me about being indigo and that's her term for being highly sensitive, is indigo, as a vibrational color, your chakra&nbsp;system. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong> Angels, what do we need to know right now about revisiting our why? Look through the situation.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Look through the situation. Now, I appreciate this. How she's gathering flowers. She's hard at work, got her bag on her back with the flowers that she's gathering. She's focused. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My Guides are saying, <em>"In order for you to revisit your why, you've got to take your head up out of the details and look past what you're doing right now."</em> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="color: #800080;"><strong>Your why is not going to be in the doing ness. It's not going to be in the actions. It's a feeling and it's a big vision task so, you've got to step back this week in particular so that you can revisit your why. Recapture that energy and unleash your inner child so that you can get out there and serve and heal in a big way.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I believe in you and I'm here to support you. That's why I do what I do. That's why I specialize in it. I want to hear your why. Comment below or send me an email, SenseiVictoriaWhitfield@gmail.com. </span></p>
