The Space For Magic Podcast with Patty Lennon (Patty Lennon)

We find ourselves in the middle of a temporary yet significantly transformative phase, with condensed potential for evolution and alignment. You might notice that things are no longer supportive of your evolution and commitment, and a lot of your established systems and beliefs may no longer feel true. While these shifts are a good thing, they can feel really extreme.  In this episode, we’re discussing the vital messages that have been coming through that could offer us valuable guidance during this intense period.  Here's what we're focusing on in this episode:  The pain you're experiencing is temporary.  False systems will start revealing their true nature to you.  Discernment is your most powerful tool.    “Allow yourself to know what you know. And also allow yourself to accept what you don’t know and take the steps to become informed.” -Patty Lennon  Remember that this is a temporary, necessary period. As you navigate through this phase, you may find the truths you seek and peace in your heart. Always remember, that divine presence is by your side.  Learn more about your ad choices.

2020 has presented all of us with unexpected challenges. Because we can’t do all the things we used to do, many of us have decided that we don’t have control over what happens. Patty reminds us that the solution isn’t outside us. Circumstances have not limited what the Universe can provide. The Universe can bring us what we desire for our souls highest good. A pandemic may mean you aren’t jetting off to Italy, but the Universe can deliver an experience to match the feeling of that experience. Learn more about your ad choices.

Patty has a special guest today to discuss racial justice and inclusivity, and what it means to live in the United States today.   Iyabo shares a bit about her life. She’s bi-racial and grew up in Nigeria until age 16 when she came to the US. She explains that she didn’t know she was black, until she moved to America.   She considers herself a recovering attorney. Hear why she changed careers and the motivation to make a big change. She went to Seminary and realized that her theological background (she explains she’s not a preacher) and legal experience gave her a foundation for the work she does now.   Patty asked Iyabo to explain how she came to understand God and spirituality. She found Christianity from television evangelists when she lived in Nigeria. It’s a fascinating story of personal faith.   Iyabo explains why she doesn’t agree with what is often taken for Christianity in the US. She is a “radical inclusionist”. Each person was created in the image of the Divine and therefore she says that each of us has intrinsic value deserving of love and inclusion.   Ownership is an illusion. This discussion helps to understand why concepts like freedom and citizenry can’t be “owned” but must be embodied. Ownership is often used to attempt to control or dictate to others. Iyabo explains how to recognize how to move from owning to empowerment.   She explains that we need to embrace shared power. We care about those in our community to have less and we understand that we are not in competition with one another.   How can we see others as human if we are so tied up in our identity that we can’t admit when we are wrong, or when we don’t know something?   Patty shares that large social issues like homelessness are sometimes misattributed by the law of attraction. Example: if you are homeless, it’s because you “attracted” it into your life. She and Iyabo talk about how that’s not the case and the shift around what it means to “attract” things in your life.   Understanding your identity will lead you to understand your privilege. Iyabo explains that there are multiple types of privilege and identifying your own will help you understand how it impacts the way that you interact with others.   This episode provides great context for understanding better ways to connect with those who have different life experiences. Her examples are something we can all relate to and learn from.   How can we make the system work for all of us? It’s a great way to think about what we can do to make an impact in our personal place in the world.   About Iyabo Onipede Iyabo Onipede is a facilitator, speaker, and consultant who curates deep dives into the heart of inclusion, equity, and racial justice. She is an effective community builder and seasoned equity consultant with a commitment to creating spaces of belonging. Iyabo's work opens pathways for organizations to build just and equitable environments through education, experiential and guided self-reflections and the facilitation of challenging exchanges.

Love allows us to show up in a different way when we’re willing to create the space for others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is a timely topic. The entire world is dealing with the coronavirus. Patty noticed via social media that people are upset to see businesses who don’t need the funds (based on their size and profitability) taking the loans, while those who are truly struggling were left out. What if you weren’t attached to the source of the money? Instead, what if you asked the Universe to support you and were open to new income or funds in completely unexpected ways?

Patty talks about how to speak to loved ones who have crossed over. This is one way you can continue the relationship with people you love even after they have passed.   While it doesn’t replace the experience of having a physical loved one with you, loved ones can still be available in spirit, and they exist without all the usual “stuff” they might have had when still alive.   This means they are more able to hold space for you when you consult with them.   Patty shares the story of her first really deep connection with loved ones, which happened before her mother crossed over. She saw the intense effects the spirit realm can have on our lives when her mother was visited by the spirit of Patty’s aunt.   The people who visit us are uniquely qualified to deal with the specific issue that might be going on at that time.   When you call on loved ones, even if you can’t see or hear them, you can often feel their presence. As you believe more, you’ll likely find that you’ll be able to summon them more and more.   Patty answers questions about why our soul chooses certain paths when we’re on this earth. Communicating with loved ones after they cross can help us to understand the course of their lives, and even the course of their illness.   Does this mean our loved ones are only there for us at the end of our lives? Not at all. It may be more likely, but we don’t need to wait until our last breaths.   Even if you can’t see your loved ones, the key is to accept that they are there and ask for a sign. You might be amazed at what happens. But it’s essential to be open to receiving them.   These days, many of us need our loved ones with us more than ever. Trust that they are close by.   If you’d like to take this work deeper with Patty, sign up for The Intuitive Immersion course, currently offered at a heavy discount.

Patty has a great guest joining her today. She’s talking with Renata Joy, a wellness coach expert. Her mission is to help women over 50 live healthier lifestyles. She focuses on nutrition, exercise, and skin care to help women feel their best, sexy selves.   Her personal story might feel familiar. As a child, she was surrounded by people who were not well. She grew up worried that she would follow in their footsteps, so she intentionally made different choices.   She was a TV producer working for The View when the 9/11 attacks happened in New York City. She enjoyed her work, but she knew there was meant to do something more. She left her 22-year producer career in 2001 and Pure Joy Wellness was created.   During the pandemic, it became clear to Renata that we needed community. She started a 30-day walking challenge, and it took off! It got women moving and talking and supporting each other.   Renata shares how we can reduce stress (a daily concern) and 5 easy things we can do to help clear our minds and reduce stress.   Breath work  Meditation  Take a walk/go for a run  Journal your thoughts  Get into nature  Renata is an advocate for self-care. In fact, she’s adamant that women put their health and wellness first. She also wants women to be proud of their age and experience, along with our wisdom. She explains that it’s time to celebrate the richness of our experiences.   “Always do your best knowing that your best will change from day to day.” (From the book, The 4 Agreements)    Resources:   Pure Joy Wellness Facebook Group  Instagram  Pure Joy Wellness Website  Learn more about your ad choices.

No matter where you are in the world, the holiday season is beginning. It often seems that the commercialism of the season overwhelms all the other sentiments. Today’s episode is about opening up to the energy of giving and receiving.   Patty reviews the 5 rules of receiving with respect to the holidays.   Rule 1 – Receive Everything   Everything isn’t always going to go the way we plan. We know life is like that. What if this year you planned three specific memories that are important to you this season? Identify them, and plan for them. Tell the Divine what is important to you, so you get the support you need.   Rule 2 – Receive Yourself Fully   Put some time on the calendar so you can be alone with yourself. This can be something fun like a spa day, but it can also be 20 minutes when you take time to read a book, or listen to music. Acknowledging to yourself, that you have needs is a first step to receiving them.   Rule 3 – Clear Space to Make Space   Understand what you want you space to be like. Are you a big decorations person or do you prefer a minimal look with a few special touches? Take a bit of time to really understand what makes you happy. Make space in your world for the things that really bring you joy.   Rule 4 – Learn Your Language   Learn to hear your intuition. Quite time helps with this. You can also set up a ceremony during the winter equinox as a time to honor your loved ones who have crossed. Hear the process that Patty uses. It’s something anyone can make their own.   Rule 5 – Do your 100 percent   Do your part and hand the rest to the Divine. For the holidays, Patty shares that it’s especially important to apply this to gifting. It can be easy to go over what you had committed to give both financially and spiritually. Hear a few ideas that you can use to make gift-buying more enjoyable for you, for the recipient and even for the seller.   Remember, the only giving you need to do is the giving that feels inspired, and natural and in flow. It’s okay to release all the other expectations. Allow yourself ease and love and openness this holiday season.     Patty’s Holiday Deals  Learn more about your ad choices.

As communities in all parts of the world re-open there have been lots of comments about the fact that we “didn’t do more” during our time of isolation. There’s been so much concern for what “could have been” that many of us are now wondering if we did it right. Short answer yes. Patty shares that there’s no right way to do anything. There’s no right way to parent, though we often buy into what a “good” mom would do or how the perfect mom would behave. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Patty shares a how-to in this episode. She’s breaking down her personal journaling method that only takes 5 minutes. She hasn’t always journaled, and it wasn’t her favorite thing to do. Maybe you can relate. That’s why she developed her 5-minute method and practice. She explains how the things we track expand. There’s science around why that happens. It’s not just a theory. That’s why this concept (tracking the things we want more of) is used in all types of applications. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today Patty shares the 5th rule of Receiving. It’s one of the things that can provide space for people to co-create with the universe. This episode will help you see how easy it can be to “do your part” and allow the Divine to do the rest. Do your 100%. Did you know that most of us can (and will) do about 97% of our 100%? It’s that last three percent that stops us. It’s often the part that requires growth. It’s in doing that work that allows the universe to bring us what we desire. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today Patty’s friend and colleague Anna Tsui joins her on the podcast. She’s a genius coach and international writer, speaker and serial entrepreneur. She is the founder of The Intuitive Business School and her bestselling book, “Shadow Magic: Turn your Fear Into Fuel and Create a Prosperous Coaching Business” shows readers how to overcome their personal self-sabotage and build a thriving career and business. Anna explains why shadow is important to her and why it may feel uncomfortable AND it’s worth exploring too. Hear how she explains why the energy may feel “low” or “not good” and what you can do with it. The key question to answer: how sure am I that life is working for me? If you are experiencing difficulty, it’s not too late to lean into growth. Never disconnect yourself from the belief that everything is working for your highest good.   Anna explains that many of us are waiting for someone outside ourselves for salvation. A sign that the Universe really is working on my behalf. Find the one part of yourself that has a desire to engage. Feel into the part that isn’t hurting, the part of you that’s ready for growth. Choose how you want to feel, even if it’s just a tiny sliver of emotion. Choose it with intention. This is an important time to be honest with yourself. Get clear about your internal dialogue. Within us all, we have all the answers. What is the Metaverse? The best way to describe it is an alternate reality where people will have an avatar and will “own” spaces and interact with others only in that form. Anna explains that while there is much we don’t know, she’s decided to approach this with curiosity. There’s a new consciousness coming and it’s inevitable, so she’s decided to be open to learning more. There is a desire that’s birthed when we look at the things we don’t want to acknowledge. Use it to help you gain clarity. She reminds us we have infinite power and one of the best ways to remember that is to choose.   Connect with Anna: Get Part of Anna’s book for Free Anna on Instagram.

Today Patty talks about something we all experience now and then; the feeling that we should have done more. This can be a form of sabotage. Patty shares personal stories of how this has affected her and others in her life. A worker at their home impacted her husband during a routine interaction and that in turn impacted her. Yet, the man who is responsible for the inspiration has no idea. What’s important to know is that you have no idea how you impact others, but you do. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this short and sweet episode, Patty talks about hibernation. With the Winter Solstice approaching the Northern Hemisphere, the season of hibernation is also approaching.  Hibernation could mean different things to different people, and it isn’t necessarily winter that always calls it forward. It could be brought after a period of big energy, or the completion of a project, or something else that brings the need to go inward, go quiet and replenish your energy. No matter what hibernation may look like for you, it’s a good and beautiful tool. It’s a wonderful way to create space for magic.  Patty also gives news about the podcast.

In today's episode Patty continues the conversation on manifesting and how to bring things into our lives. She delves into the topic of letting go of limiting beliefs and how this can be a difficult task, especially when those beliefs are hidden in the shadows.   Here are the steps you need to follow:  1. You can't always control what happens, but you can control how you react to it.  In order to let go of a limiting belief, you first need to be aware of it. Once you are aware of the belief, you can begin to question it. Why do you believe this? Is there evidence to support it? If not, begin to let go of the belief. This may be a difficult process, but it is necessary in order to move forward.  2. Trust that the universe has your back and knows what's best for you.  When you trust that the universe has your back and knows what's best for you, it means that you have faith that things will work out for the best, even if you can't see how they will at the moment. It means letting go of the need to control everything and allowing yourself to be open to what comes your way. This can be a scary step, but it's important to remember that you are always supported, even when things seem uncertain.  3. Be willing to let go of what's not working, even if it's scary.  This may be a process that happens over time. You may find that you have to let go of the belief multiple times before it is truly gone. But each time you let it go, it will get easier and easier.  Manifesting for Grownups  Releasing Resistance    Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Suzanne Kingsbury is here! She’s an award-winning best-selling author and the Founder of Gateless Writing Inc., a worldwide literary arts organization based on ancient Zen and cutting-edge creative brain science that brings writers, creative and business leaders to their highest level of Innovation and productivity.   What is the Gateless Writing process?   Suzanne explains what it isn’t first and how she came to understand the brain science behind Gateless Writing. Hear how she went from being a successful writer to being a blocked writer when she tried the conventional method of writer education.   We learn better (and write better) when we come from a positive place. Criticism can lead to blocks and crippling doubt. We’ve been told what isn’t working as a way to learn instead of what IS working.   The Gateless Writing method is focusing on what is right. What’s good? What are you doing well? That helps you focus on what’s going well and allows you to grow from there.   Gateless has also helped people improve all aspects of their lives. When we focus on what’s good, what’s working well, everything that is good begins to come along with you and what’s not good falls away.   Hear how Suzanne describes how the Gateless concept came to her. It’s so inspiring. Realizing there are no gates, there’s nothing stopping us from taking next steps.   People are craving change but get stuck because they can’t see the big picture. They don’t know what to do to make the desired change. In our culture we look backwards for assurances which isn’t helpful. The pragmatist acknowledges what is required to make a change and strategizes to make it possible.    Look toward the pieces of your life that bring you joy. Start there. Identify a bridge that helps you get from where you are now to where you want to be. Suzanne shares a great example of this.   Hear how to learn the methodology to become Gateless. This is something that anyone can do if there is a desire to stop self-criticizing.   Start with a small step.   What’s working?   Where do I need resources?   Who can I ask for help?   Connect with Suzanne   FB: https://www.facebook.com/suzanne.d.kingsbury  Connect with Suzanne on Instagram  Read to Me Podcast   Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode was inspired by questions Patty received from her clients and Receiving School participants. She is often asked what is a sign, or how can I know I’ve received a sign?

Today we're diving into a topic that we all encounter at some point in our lives: that feeling of everything coming apart at the seams. It can be unsettling when it seems like our world is unraveling. But this might just be a sign that a system in your life has run its course, and it's time to make a brave move.  “As long as the system supports evolution and supports humanity at some level, and humanity buys in, the architecture remains in place.” -Patty Lennon  This can be a really confusing time. We outgrow the structures that we knew. The strengths we had are no longer working. The worldviews we believed in no longer resonate with us. It forces us to make an important decision: do we cling to the familiarity of what we know, or do we step out into the unknown? Although the choice might feel difficult, in reality, we often find ourselves with no other option but to embrace change.  In this difficult time, here are three things to help keep you going:  Be okay with not knowing.  Let go and surrender.   Know that you are okay.    It's okay to feel like things are falling apart. Embrace the uncertainty, for it may lead to unexpected growth and new possibilities. Trust in the journey and believe in your resilience as you step forward into the unknown. Remember that you've got this.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today Patty talks about the “compare and despair” syndrome. It impacts and affects all of us; heart-centered entrepreneurs most of all. We are relational beings. Comparison isn’t inherently a bad thing. Learning from others is part of life. Modeling what someone else has done can be an effective strategy. Where we get into trouble is seeing someone else who (we think) has done something better, faster or more successfully. We take our soul out of the equation. Patty shares a personal story about how this has shown up in her life. When we compare, we lose track of the fact that the divine has a plan. Your journey isn’t going to be like anyone else’s journey. What if the struggle is divinely blessed? What if it’s a sign that it’s time to make a shift or get back in touch with your soul? Patty shares 3 key steps to getting out of the compare and despair cycle and turning that focus on what’s going to be most helpful in this moment. Learn more about your ad choices.

They’re there to help us. We just need to lean into that trust.” - Whitney McNeill The topic of spirit guides comes with a lot of questions. Here are three that Whitney answers in this episode: How do we recognize our spirit guides? How do we talk to our spirit guides? How do we start a relationship with our spirit guides? Spirit guides come as helpers with an understanding of what it means to be human. They’re there to guide us, give us a nudge in the right direction, and offer help in various ways. Because they know what it’s like to be human, they have more human characteristics and personalities. A lot of times, especially when we’re just starting to intentionally communicate with our guides, it can be difficult to differentiate our own thoughts from the words of our guides. We tend to doubt ourselves and the messages we’re receiving. This episode can be your starting point to help you navigate these questions and uncertainties. “The more you train your energy to recognize the subtleties of energy, the easier it’s going to be for you.” - Whitney McNeill For additional resources, you can take Whitney’s Intuitive Language Quiz and check out her Oracle cards. These valuable tools can enhance your ability to communicate with your guides and deepen your spiritual connection.  Relevant Links: Quiz - What's Your Intuitive Language®?  Messenger of Spirit Oracle Cards Connect with Whitney McNeill: Website Facebook Instagram YouTube Learn more about your ad choices.

Patty shares how she became a purpose-driven entrepreneur. It’s a big part of her journey. The energy around what you’re creating as you build your business (the actual experience) is what you’ll have when you hit your goal. If the process includes stress and doesn’t provide the time freedom you desire, that’s going to be part of your future. It’s part of what you are creating. Enter the dysfunctional fairytale. The belief that things will magically end up being the ideal we desire. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Karma is often understood as the deserving return of things you have done, often in the negative aspect. As in, if you do something bad, something bad will happen to you. But there's more to it than that. We need to remember that when we borrow teachings from different languages and cultures, some of the true meaning can get lost in translation. When Patty talks about karma and karmic relationships, she’s referring to the flow of events where we get to examine our life after we move beyond this realm and go beyond the veil. It's an opportunity for us to see how our actions have impacted others and experience the consequences from their perspective. “Karma is not just bad. It’s the balance of all things. And when we put that out, ultimately it’s going to return to us.” -Patty Lennon As we prepare for our next life, our souls have this desire to absorb or take in the pain and negativity we have caused in this lifetime. How that plays out in our future lives can vary. We might directly experience what we've inflicted, or perhaps we'll be connected to those who have received that pain, either through work or relationships. These karmic wounds from our past actions manifest as patterns and behaviors that no longer serve us in this lifetime.  “Forgiveness holds the seeds to freedom.” -Patty Lennon Here's the key to freeing ourselves from this cycle: forgiveness. Dealing with our karmic wounds and releasing the ties to our past selves starts with forgiveness. We need to find a way to make amends for who we were before. We don't have to spend the rest of our lives trying to make up for our past actions. If you're ready to break free from guilt and doubt and experience deep peace, possibility, and prosperity, Patty has a 5-step program that can help you on this journey. It's time to clear those karmic patterns and create a brighter future. Relevant Links: Unleash Your Magic Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why is it that most of us who are drawn to the idea of manifestation struggle to actually make it work? In today’s episode, Patty talks about some of the common approaches to manifesting and why she disagrees with these typical methods. As Patty discusses, the fundamental flaw in most of these approaches from the Judeo-Christian beginnings to those offered today, is the sense that we need to be “worthy” to receive what we desire. What stops us from manifesting what we desire? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Did you know that everyone is born with intuitive gifts? It’s true. Today’s episode is all about understanding the types of gifts that exist. It will help you recognize your own! Patty shares what the gifts are, and how you can learn to tap into them in your life. If you are one of those people who isn’t aware of your gifts or think you don’t have any at all, it’s likely that you are blocking them. The key reason they are blocked is because we think they need to show up in a particular way and when they show up differently, we don’t acknowledge them. Our brains are wired to block out what it can’t see/hear/taste or feel with our 5 physical senses. The most common intuitive gifts: Clairvoyance – seeing what’s not there. Clairaudience – audibly hearing messages. Clairsentience – feeling the feelings (energetically) of others. Claircognizance – knowing things that you haven’t researched or been taught. Clairalience – knowledge by means of scent and smell. Clairgustance -The ability to taste a substance without putting it in your mouth. The value of these gifts and knowing how to tap into them is to make decisions that are help you and serve your highest good. Patty explains how to tap into your gifts – even if you aren’t sure you have what yours are. This is a powerful episode and will give you the insights and ability to recognize and access your own intuitive gifts. Join the Facebook Group Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Patty talks with Katie, the Founder & CEO of the recently launched MindBodySoulMarket.com, an online marketplace with products, classes, and services from exceptional vendors to empower the collective on their wellness & spiritual journeys. As a retail tech expert with 2 decades of experience at a Fortune 100 retailer, she has learned career success and a picture-perfect life doesn’t always translate into a thriving soul.   Today, Katie shares when her life a few years ago looked perfect and pretty from the outside, but inside it was all falling apart, and how that was a start to her spiritual journey. She talks about her corporate career and the realization that she did not want to stay there, trapped in a small box. Katie recalls how she continued her job while starting MindBodySoulMarket and what led to her decision to eventually leave employment to be a full-time entrepreneur.  Like all of us, Katie has had moments when she shut herself down and asked “Who am I to do this big, glorious thing?” yet she learned to be in a space where she now trusts her inner voice 99% of the time.  This episode is a lesson on trusting your intuition, living with integrity, and not letting ourselves get in our own way.  Connect with Katie:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindbodysoulmarket/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.ph/mindbodysoulmarket/  Link to her offer: https://mindbodysoulmarket.com/awaken-the-divine/  Learn more about your ad choices.

Even when things are going well, we need time to rest. Especially after these past 2 years. This is the time we meant to hibernate. That might be why jumping into new things and embracing fresh starts might not be resonating with you. Patty is talking through about how to manage January in the way that best fits you. If “new year, new you” makes you cringe, or makes you feel like you aren’t keeping up, this episode is for you. Honor that this may not be the time for you to be in planning mode. Pay attention to what feels right for you. Hear how this showed up for Patty and how she’s getting clear about what is true for her. You can use this same process as well. Remember that messages come from either love or fear. Trust your feelings and allow space for you to decide what’s right for you. Allow yourself to know what you know. Trust that what your soul is sharing with you is exactly what you need right now. It’s also okay to honor the losses in your life, no matter how insignificant (or significant) it feels.

Today Patty is talking about how to receive Black History. A disclaimer: Patty is sharing this from her perspective, a white woman, sharing from her experience. Patty considers herself an ally, and someone who is imperfectly moving forward the best way she can.   How do we have these difficult conversations?    If you have been part of Patty’s audience then you know she shares from the heart. Especially when it’s hard. What’s on her heart this episode; how to move out of resistance and into receiving.   Receiving our history (speaking specifically as a US resident) feels more important than ever. How can we do this in a way that serves us all?   Resources that Patty has found helpful:   My Grandmother’s Hands   My Grandmother's Hands is a call to action for all of us to recognize that racism is not about the head, but about the body, and introduces an alternative view of what we can do to grow beyond our entrenched racialized divide.  Pause, Rest Be: Stillness Practices for Courage in Times of Change   Yoga teacher and activist Octavia Raheem offers us the motivation and guidance we need to restore ourselves in the midst of all sorts of change.  Liminal Space with Iyabo   If you are committed to creating a world where race, gender or class are not a determinant of a person’s worth or value, then you have come to the right space.  If you are open to learning, growing and embracing your own personal racial healing, without shame and self-condemnation, then you can nest right here. You have found a place where you can be you.  Marian Anderson: The Whole World In Her Hands  Discover an international singer who captivated royalty in Europe and defied the conscience of 1939 America.  Resistance requires energy.

It’s been 10 years since Patty’s mom passed. Since that time, her dad has also crossed over. She recognized how much she’s changed and how different her own experiences have been around grief. Understanding the grief process is the topic for today’s episode.   We are all going to have some experiences with grief. If you’re in the midst of grieving, it can be hard to know how does understanding the journey help with what I’m feeling today?   First, she reminds us that when someone has crossed over, they are really close to us. They are likely sending lots of signs to help you know you are loved. We often miss those so it’s worth remembering when you’re in a difficult moment.   Another helpful thing is to allow what you are feeling and how you are navigating be your “normal” for today. If you are putting forward effort to get up when you don’t feel like I, acknowledge that. Recognize the effort and what it takes to both grieve and be present in your day-to-day life.   She also reminds us that it’s okay to seek help. You may find yourself thinking thoughts that are (for you) not typical. There may also be times when you think “what’s the point of this” when you are missing your loved one. Patty shares that this is normal, and it’s okay to do things that are simple that don’t require a lot of focus.   Like so many things in life, grief is not linear. It will ebb and flow and Patty reminds us that there is no finish line. Grief is not a problem to be solved. The good news is that you’ll have good days again. Happiness will come back, sometimes when you least expect it.   A final thought from Patty’s parents; your loved ones can and will continue to support you. It may not look the way you expect, but they are still here for us. If you aren’t feeling this support, it’s okay to ask for signs and let your loved one know you are looking for them.   Grief is life altering. As painful as it is, there are also gifts available to us at this time as well. Be open to receiving them and treat yourself with compassion as you navigate this journey.   Resources:   10 Ways to See Signs  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

One of Patty’s good friends Shari Teigman is on the podcast. She is a performance coach and creative business strategist who teaches the Maverick Method to become the optimal you for your optimal life and business.  She works with high level CEOs, entrepreneurs and startups to unleash their inner Maverick and to remove the bottlenecks that keep them stuck and small to catapult into the next level of well-being and success in all areas.  Shari says she’s practical and woo and likes connecting with others who understand how we’re all a bit of both. She explains she has full belief and also can have resistance to all of it.   That’s why she found Receiving School so helpful.  You’ll be inspired when you hear how Shari followed her intuition when visiting her family. It’s just one way the universe helped her be where she needed to be, even when she didn’t understand why.   When she surrendered, by force (her words) she received the clarity and support she needed.

Patty Lennon helps people who are stuck and feeling left behind to find the flow of their own soul's journey and on today's episode she's sharing the new Receiving School components.  "Change is the essence of evolution and this planet is evolving. This vibration of this planet is shifting upwards."  Today Patty is sharing the changes going on at the Receiving School. The Receiving School is a program that helps people open up to receive all the gifts the universe has for us. The pace of the receiving school has changed. Previously, it was an eight-week program that moved quickly. But now it will be a yearlong experience!  All humanity is in the process of change. The changes Patty is making to the Receiving School are a reflection of something bigger happening in the world. Change is the essence of evolution, and this planet is evolving. The more we step into the flow of where we are being called, the easier the next months and years are going to be. People need to shift into a gentler pace when they make choices for themselves.  This year, the Receiving School is going to be open for a full year instead of just a couple of months a year. The 8-week window didn't give Patty the ability to help participants who want to go deeper into their receiving practice.  Patty will have other experts who will also help facilitate our receiving muscles. She noticed in the past that some people needed other types of healing as they did the Receiving School process. Now with a single investment a number of other resources will be included. EFT with Victoria Cryder, Deana Paqua a shamanic practitioner and healer will lead energy clearing sessions. Lynn Trotta will be offering seasonal ceremonies to help us connect with the earth plane.  These changes and shifts are what Patty didn't even dream of when she first opened the doors to the Receiving School. She's thrilled to have these additional options and resources to the community.  Join the Receiving School - Scholarships Available   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Patty has a repeat guest today! She’s talking with Judith Nilan the author of A Call To Crone: Weaving Wisdom With Threads Of Irish Heritage and A Legacy Of Wisdom: The Genius, Power, and Possibility of Ireland’s Indigenous Spiritual Heritage.     Today she and Patty are discussing the sacred pause, a topic that’s been on the minds of many. Judith referred to it as a call to cave. She explains that her heritage this time is one for rest, renewal and gathering around the hearth.   It’s no wonder many of us feel called to rest.   Judith reminds us that we were thrown into forced hibernation for much longer than any of us could have imagined. Add to that the angst and anxiety in the world in general, and it’s traumatic.   We are being called to step into the highest and best potential that’s possible in our lives. Hear how Judith explains this and why it’s so powerful.   We can’t think our way through this.   There is no clear navigation for this which is one reason why many of us feel so anxious. Judith shares how to embrace our capacity to remember ourselves as sacred people. This is so powerful!   We all shine a light into the world.   How can we listen to the wisdom of our soul? Patty and Judith talk about how this can feel, and steps to address the fear that comes up when we look to slow down or surrender to the pause we’re called to take.  When we step into that place of our sacred knowing and embrace the harmony that is in us, scientists have proven that we can radiate that energy for others. Hear how Judith explains this, and why it’s going to help all of us in this busy time.   Tools to help when you feel called to rest, or when you know you need a break:  Spend time outside   Meditate (see Judith’s link below)   Breathe in the energy of nature   Be present in your environment (notice the little things)  Embrace a body experience (to help turn off your mind)   Trust your initial insights (your soul knows what you need)  Remember that you hold the light. You came here knowing that. It’s always been true.     Resources:  Link to Nations Meditation  Judith recommends you review her blogs from 6/13/21-6/29/21 to give this meditation context.  Judith's Previous Episode  Email Judith  Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when we compare ourselves to others especially when we seldom know the real story? Nothing good comes from “compare and despair” mode. Patty shares from her own experience.

In my book, Make Space for Magic I talk about the law of attraction and how it can be somewhat toxic.   There have been horrible events recently and in the Magic Lounge we’ve had comments and questions about people “attracting” violence or harmful situations.   Is that really a thing?   Additionally, the next thought process is: if they attracted their situation, then is okay or acceptable for us to look away?   There are a lot of beliefs around this which is why in this epiode, I’m sharing what I believe and how I’ve come to understand this for myself. My hope is that it clears up some misunderstandings and gives you a new perspective on this often mis-understood concept.   Using the law of attraction to impact our ability to change our vibration with our thoughts, can only happen when we are not in “fight or flight” mode. People in disadvantaged communities or in an unsafe environment, don’t have the ability to raise their vibration to relieve their circumstances.   What if these people are in these circumstances so that others (like you and I) have the chance to help them? Fundamentally I do believe that we are here to play a part in the larger community when opportunities are present.   If we want to use the law of attraction to keep from looking at the pain of others, it’s often from a place of fear. The fear of other’s pain, and the fear that we have when we don’t know how to help or feel powerless can keep us in a place removed from love.  It isn’t our job to “save” others, but it can be our responsibility to be an ally. Where do you feel called to help? You may be the person who can aid someone else to move out of fear so they can see their own potential.   Did I attract this?   If you are feeling blame or shame around your circumstances, wondering if you’ve invited this into your life, I invite you to look at it as something to be released. When I embraced my debt (for example) and stopped resisting I was finally able to begin to release it from my life.   You can get more insights on my personal journey around this in the book, Make Space for Magic.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Does hunting for signs from the universe work? That’s the topic for today’s episode. Patty shares why hunting isn’t as effective as receiving and how to shift from looking to seeing. First, she breaks down what she means by signs – what they are and how they show up. 1.   General signs – These signs show up and mean the same thing for all of us. Pennies from heaven is one of the examples she shares. 2.   Personal signs – These signs are specific and personal to you. It’s meaningful for you because of the context involved. 3.   Chosen signs – This is when you ask for something specific to show up in your awareness to resolve doubt and receive requested assurance. Next, she addresses the brain science around seeing and receiving signs. Our brain often works against our ability to receive. Patty shares why this is and how you can recognize when your brain is trying to keep you from seeing them. The Universe always answers our requests, but we often discount what we see or miss the signs completely. Hear how you can recognize the way this pattern shows up for you and how to stay open. The only thing for you to do is to receive the sign. How do we allow this? Patty shares great examples to help you do this for yourself. 1.   Breathe and slow down your nervous system. 2.   Affirm what we know to be true. 3.   Practice letting go. If it feels okay to you to share what you are looking for, then it can be possible for others to see the sign that’s meant for you. The examples Patty shares will show you how someone else may see your sign to help you receive it.

In this episode, we’re continuing our discussion about help from the other side of the veil. Today we’re talking about our Council of Elders. Returning to the show is Patty’s good friend and mentor, Deana Paqua.  Deana is a teacher and practitioner of cross-cultural energy medicine, contemporary shamanism, a reiki master teacher, licensed massage therapist, family herbalism practitioner, flower essence practitioner, ordained minister, and certified tarot reader.  “One of the greatest gifts I’ve discovered is the more help, the better.” - Deana Paqua  In this episode Deana shares:  What is the Council of Elders?  Who can we have on our Council?  How can we meet our Council?    We want to encourage you to connect with your own council. They can help you and guide you in so many ways, like through a time of transition and change. They provide wisdom that you might not have access to otherwise.  “Our own ancestors, even our past life ancestors, they are the spirits that really want us to succeed the most.” - Deana Paqua  While it would be helpful to have someone guide you through meeting your Council, you don’t need anyone else to be able to work with them. You can do it yourself as long as you’re open to it. Set the intention. Take the time to clear yourself, your space, and your mind. Pay attention to everything around you, and you’ll see the signs and messages being left for you.  Relevant Links:  Unleash Your Magic: two-day live virtual event  Energy Upgrade Program  Connect with Deana Paqua:  Website  Facebook  Instagram  YouTube  Learn more about your ad choices.

Patty is sharing on this episode how to connect to your spirit guides, angels, and your loved ones. This process, the actual how-to, is one of the questions she is asked most often, followed up by: how do I know if the communication is right?   First, some definitions for terms that Patty is using today.   Spirit guides have incarnated. They have been human and have experienced life on earth. They understand the challenges we have in human world.

Hear how Patty breaks down the difference as she understands it.   It’s important to understand this this takes some time. The nuance that Patty has now developed over time. The best way to gain clarity and nuance is spending time learning how to establish these connections.   The 4 Steps  Step One – Clear your environment.

This episode is a continuation of the conversation from episode 242 on what to do when we’re feeling lost. When we feel like we don’t know what to do, or we’ve lost our purpose, it all comes from feeling like we’re not enough. In this episode, Patty leads the discussion on why we sometimes feel like we’re not enough, what it stems from, and how we can move past it.  This belief was taught to us from the time we were born by the people and experiences around us, whether they were aware of it or not. Every time we were told that our desire was unworthy, every time something goes wrong or gets taken away from us, in our minds it translates to “I’m not enough,” or “I’m not worthy.”  “Constantly looking for how things could go wrong pulls you away from possibility, hope, and potential.” -Patty Lennon  Here’s three things you can do to overcome this false belief:  Re-engage what we know to be true.  Notice how much you already know what to do.  Let go of the worry.    This episode is a reminder of this doubt we all share, and that it’s possible to get over this, and get better. Remember that as you live, you’re living your purpose.  Learn how to stop second-guessing yourself and rediscover where you’re meant to be.  “If you knew you were enough, you’ve done enough, and had enough within you to accomplish every desire you had, what would change?” -Patty Lennon  Relevant Links:  Live Masterclass: How to Find and Embrace Your Soul’s Purpose  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today’s podcast is about parenting. Patty is sharing her philosophy specifically as it relates to the 100% rule. As a mom, knowing when she’s done her 100% and surrendering the rest is something she continues to work on. If you are a mom (or dad) you already understand that you can’t parent all kids the same way. Different kids need different guidance and support and that’s true for Patty too. Let children see for themselves what is possible. It’s important that as a parent you accept your child as they are. This has opened up space with both kids, by creating awareness of what’s possible and allowing them to share how Patty can best support them. “You know that you’re doing more than your 100% when you feel like you are pushing a boulder up a hill.” Most of the time when we get to the 100% space and it’s time to let go, we feel fear. The illusion of control is what makes us feel strong, so letting go and bring up all kinds of doubts. Remember, the Divine loves your kids and has their back. They have their own helpers in life just like we do. When it’s time to surrender (after doing your 100%) remember that others can and will step in to help. Hear how to fully let go, understanding it’s for your highest good. This is the part that trips us up the most. When we see our child hurting because they’ve made a bad decision or are struggling to choose differently, it brings pain to us as parents. That’s a good time to look at the pain to see if it’s about more than what is happening with your child. When you heal something in yourself, it helps everyone in your family. Everything that happens can be something that leads to helping your kids and helping yourself. Resources: Get Patty’s guide to help you see the signs! Learn more about your ad choices.

Did you know that everyone is born with intuitive gifts? It’s true. Today’s episode is all about understanding the types of gifts that exist. It will help you recognize your own! Patty shares what the gifts are, and how you can learn to tap into them in your life. If you are one of those people who isn’t aware of your gifts or think you don’t have any at all, it’s likely that you are blocking them. The key reason they are blocked is because we think they need to show up in a particular way and when they show up differently, we don’t acknowledge them. Our brains are wired to block out what it can’t see/hear/taste or feel with our 5 physical senses. The most common intuitive gifts: Clairvoyance – seeing what’s not there. Clairaudience – audibly hearing messages. Clairsentience – feeling the feelings (energetically) of others. Claircognizance – knowing things that you haven’t researched or been taught. Clairalience – knowledge by means of scent and smell. Clairgustance -The ability to taste a substance without putting it in your mouth. The value of these gifts and knowing how to tap into them is to make decisions that are help you and serve your highest good. Patty explains how to tap into your gifts – even if you aren’t sure you have what yours are. This is a powerful episode and will give you the insights and ability to recognize and access your own intuitive gifts. Join the Facebook Group Learn more about your ad choices.

Patty shares a personal story that came up when she was looking forward to celebrating her 20th wedding anniversary. A big takeaway is that what she received in life, was so much better than what she’d imagined as a young girl.   We put so much pressure on ourselves to know what the perfect life looks like, or what we want to manifest, when what we need to realize is that the place we’re going is so beyond what we can imagine.   We can get lost inside the need to have certain gaps filled instead of waiting for what is best for us. When you are manifesting, it’s important to remember that what comes into our life is always what is in our best interest.   What would it feel like to get better than what you can imagine?   Holding the desire while handing it over to the divine is how you can receive more and better than you can even see right now. If you feel like you’re doing it “wrong” Patty wants you to know that’s not true.   She’s hosting a free event to help you understand what manifestation really looks like in just 15 minutes a day!   This is the first time she’s done this outside her membership so join Patty to take the mystery out of manifestation.    Join the 5 Day Manifestation for Grown-Ups Event  Learn more about your ad choices.

Her signature coaching program, The Artist Incubator, helps artists go from "so-so" sales to sold-out collections.  Miriam grew up in poverty, and with the decision to make money as a motivating factor, she worked at a Wallstreet hedge fund. She shares her experience working there, the mafia-esque culture, and being surrounded by the “big swinging dicks of Wallstreet.” While working there, she had a nagging sense that there had to be something more to life, and how that eventually led to her being a self-described working artist.  In this episode, Miriam shares stories revolving around her new book ARTPRENEUR: The Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Sustainable Living from Your Creativity. How our fears and sense of self-preservation can hinder ourselves, utilizing her brain’s neurodivergence as a superpower, and the power of belief structured around Miriam’s very own “Belief Triad.”   Miriam and Patty also discuss the hero’s journey, and how in the process of discovering ourselves, we start with a comfortable safe place, then receive “the call” and eventually reach the point of no return.  This episode is a fun conversation on the life of an artist, shifting mindsets, and relatable stories that will make you think about your own journey.  Connect with Miriam:  instagram.com/schulmanart  facebook.com/schulmanart  youtube.com/schulmanart  linkedin.com/in/schulmanart  twitter.com/schulmanart   schulmanart.com/resources  ArtpreneurBook.com  Learn more about your ad choices.
