    In this episode, I am joined by Pia Leichter.

    Pia is a creative partner, the founder of Kollektiv Studio, and the author of the best-selling book Welcome to the Creative Club.

    During our conversation, Pia shared about her journey from consistently moving from place to place for most of her life and then finally deciding to settle down in one place and the personal growth that has come from that decision.

    We had beautiful conversations about topics such as the power of changing your name and aging.

    She shared a lot of her insight about the creative process, what stops us in our creativity, and what we can do to become unblocked when this occurs.

    She also spoke in depth about the beauty of living in uncertainty because this is where we can access infinite possibility.

    If you are wanting to access your creativity on a deeper level, or you are needing some help getting unblocked in the creative process, this episode will help you.

    In this episode, I am joined by Gretchen Ritter.

    Gretchen recently lost her home and all of her belongings in the Palisades fires in Malibu, California.

    She has also been navigating a difficult divorce for the past couple of years, and the fire and the loss of the home complicated that matter further as well.

    In the face of all of it, Gretchen has landed on her feet, as she always does.

    Gretchen and I have been close friends for over 30 years, since we were college roommates back in the 80’s. Since I met her, I have watched her constantly find ways to help and contribute to others, and she is continuing to do that now for her devastated community in California.

    She has also had to learn, during this time, how to be on the receiving end of the contributions and the generosity that people have given her, something she is not used to.

    We spoke about all of this in this episode, and so much more.

    If you are wanting to learn from and be inspired by someone who finds a way to thrive in the face of the most challenging situations, and to remember that you never have to see yourself as a victim, this episode will help you.

    Enjoy the episode!

    In this episode, I am joined by Vance Morris.

    While working at Disney years ago, Vance learned all of the systems and processes that go into providing the best customer service on the planet. After studying how this works through his experience there, he started his own company and applied what he learned. This lead to:

    • his company being able to charge more than his competitors, creating higher profits with less work
    • his employees sticking around because they don’t have to work as hard as the employees in the other companies
    • creating customers that stick around for life because of the impeccable customer service provided

    Eventually companies started coming to Vance for his help so that they could do the same for their businesses. Vance now teaches others how to WOW your customers, stand out from the competition, and build a business that attracts loyal, high-paying clients who will stick with you for the long haul.

    In this conversation, Vance shared some ideas of packages that business owners can provide for their customers, as well as guarantees and bonuses that stand out in the marketplace (many which don’t cost much or anything at all).

    He also shared how to create emotional engagement with your customers so that they wil stick around for life.

    And he even shared how to be the authority in your niche by writing a book in one weekend (this tip was pure gold).

    If you are wanting to stand out in your business to be able to create price elasticity and keep your customers for life, this episode will help you.

    I’m about to embark on another plant medicine adventure.

    In about a week and half, I am going to be having my very first experience with Bufu- otherwise known as 5-meO-DMT or the God Molecule.

    I’m super excited.

    If you’ve been following me for a while, you may know that the plant medicine Ayahuasca has played a huge role in my healing journey.

    I just sat with Ayahuasca for the seventh time in December, and it was beautiful, as always.

    And now I’m being called to sit with Bufo.

    So in this episode I will explain a little bit more about what Bufo is, why I’m called to it, and my feelings about it as my ceremony approaches.

    I also shared an excerpt from an article about Bufo in Forbes, including what Mike Tyson had to say about his experience with Bufo when he spoke about it on the Joe Rogan podcast.

    My goal is to get any information that I can out to others who are called to plant medicine because it’s been such a big part of my healing journey.

    It was also super helpful for me when I was first being called to do plant medicine to find some information provided by others about their experiences, so my hope is that this information is helpful for others that are seeking the same.

    Enjoy the episode and I hope it serves you on your own path. Also please share it with others who may benefit from this information as well.

    I love you, and please remember that I’m here to help, always.

    If any questions come up for you as you listen, feel free to ask them. I’m happy to answer.

    Enjoy the episode!

    With love and gratitude,

  • #068: The Privilege of Being Human, Intentions for the New Year, & the Meaning of Freedom

    It’s a new year… so I wanted to start it out by connecting with you here since it’s been a while.

    I’ve basically been traveling since the beginning of November… phew. It’s been a whirlwind and so much has happened.

    So, in the episode I will give you a recap to get you up to speed with what has transpired over the last few months.

    I’ll also provide an exciting update about my new book that’s coming out soon.

    And then I wanted to share some thoughts and intentions with you in the spirit of the new year. These include some wisdom from outside of myself that’s been helpful for me to remember as I start the new year, as well as some of my own intentions.

    One of my intentions and priorities has to do with freedom. So I also had a little conversation about freedom, what it means to me, and an invitation to think about what it means to you.

    Hint: There’s no right or wrong here… it’s just a matter of personal priority. For example, my definition of freedom has a lot to do with the amount of white space in my calendar. And, for you, it might mean owning a private jet. And understanding your own definition of freedom will help you to set yourself up effectively for the new year (and beyond).

    Enjoy the episode and I hope it serves you as a reminder that being human is a privilege, regardless of what challenges we must face while we are here for our short time on earth.

    And you have the ability to be free, whatever that means for you.

    I love you, and please remember that I’m here to help, always.

    If any questions come up for you as you listen, feel free to ask them. I’m happy to answer.

    Enjoy the episode!

    With love and gratitude,

    Amy
