When Did You Stop Growing?

Uncategorized

If you only let in what “feels good,” are you shortchanging your growth? I used to be defensive as hell. I hated feedback. I hated reflections. {Even when people had permission to give them}. They made me cringe. They made me cry. I made them mean that I was “doing something wrong.” AKA: a major trigger for me. To protect myself, I was like water on canvas—I never let them sink in. In fact, I went to war. I was “RIGHT.” They were “WRONG.” And as a result, I defended exactly where I didn’t want to stay. That’s the thing with creating what feels impossible—the way you’re used to being...

What a Lack of Motivation Really Means & What to Do About It

lack of motivation

It’s been raining in Massachusetts for a month.Every day has been cloudy, cold, and bleak.Winter is clinging desperately, digging its heels into the fresh soil of spring. While it would be easy to blame my lack of motivation in my business on winter’s inability to surrender, I know deep down that my energetic rut isn’t about the weather—it’s the same old pattern coming back around again. You know, the pattern you think you’ve healed, only to have it show up on your doorstep wrapped in different paper. For the majority of my life, I’ve struggled with getting stuck in a lack of motivation and cycling through energetic highs and lows....

3 Powerful Insights From a Rich Litvin Coaching Intensive

Travel, Business
Rich Litvin Coaching Intensive

Before we left the Rich Litvin Coaching Intensive to go back to our lives, and a world that didn’t expand like we did, Rich encouraged us to sit with our experiences and insights—to keep them to ourselves and let them shift how we show up in the world. He encouraged us to let people feel our expansion, rather than talk about it. While I have every intention of honoring his wisdom, I also know myself well enough to know that my expansion integrates more deeply from turning around and teaching. While I can’t possibly fit the magnitude of what I experienced at the Rich Litvin Coaching Intensive into a single...

How to Manifest With the Moon

Manifestation
manifest with the moon; full moon

This year, I made a spiritual commitment to manifest with the moon. At her core, the moon represents feminine energy and the process of creation. Not only does she influence the ebb and flow of the tides, she influences the ebb and flow of our feelings and energy. She invites us to reflect and explore our inner world more deeply. When the moon is new in the sky, she is death—dark and hollow. I like to think of her as an empty container, waiting to be filled with light. The new moon asks us to plant seeds in the void. She asks us to set intentions and goals so that...

Victim vs. Creator: Who Are You Being?

Manifest More Success

Hit the rewind button to three years ago, when I was stuffed in a car for thirty hours on the way home from our last stop in Denver. It had been eight weeks since I’d lived a normal life and returning home felt like a cage. {Listen on SoundCloud >>here} I remember watching the tiny beads of rain cling to the windshield and feeling their pain as they were ripped away by the wind. Outside, miles of flat farmland swept by. Somewhere on the horizon of Missouri, with legs folded on the seat and journal pressed against my thighs, my hair stood on end and my heart sank into my...

What’s Your Word for 2017?

Uncategorized
Kayla MacArthur

My word for 2016 was CONNECTION. In choosing this word, I set the divine intention to connect deeper to my Truth, to my intuition, and to my Tribe. Looking back on the year that has passed, I’m in shock as to how deeply this intention has manifested. Officially in 2016, I’ve owned my Truth as a powerful Coach & Manifestor. I’ve allowed myself to operate from the intuitive guidance I am given, no matter how scary or counter-intuitive it feels. And I’ve built an extremely engaged social media Tribe + a rock solid local community, where the relationships run deep and the energy is truly focused on positive support and...

Over the weekend, I was perched up in my favorite little French bistro with my biz bestie, Ashley Hogan, where I was sharing with her how I crafted my yearly and monthly income goals based on everything I was truly desiring to manifest in 2017.

Stop Worrying: 4 Signs Success is On the Way

signs success is on the way

Are there signs success is on the way in your life and business? Too often, we drive ourselves mad with anxiety, fall into the thick of despair, or decide to quit before the magic happens. When you have a vision and a mission to manifest, and you’re putting in the work to make it happen, it can feel disheartening when the results don’t show up. This is especially true if you’re a high achiever like me. When you’re not making the impact you’re here to make or closing the sales you thought you would, your mind starts spinning—”see, I told you this wouldn’t work. I told you that you weren’t...

Craft Your 2017 Vision: Two of the Best Tools to Manifest in the New Year

Manifest More Success

Vision is key. And clarity is even more key. When you point and sharpen the lens on the vision of your future, it brings it into focus. It makes it FEEL REAL. And if it feels real? It’s totally possible. The Universe knows where you want to go and what to give you more of. Your soul knows where you want to go and activates your intuition to notice the people, places, and opportunities that will get you where you want to go that much faster. Without clarity of vision, you have no direction. You have no foundation upon which to manifest your success. Last year, when I made the...

Are You Spreading Your Energy Too Thin?

Do What You Love

I get it. You’re lit up by SO many different things! Ideas are flowing. You feel called to this project and that one and oh! This one too! It’s like your creativity is on a field day and there’s so much to do, you can’t even figure out where to begin! You’re excited. But you’re also kind of exhausted. Mentally drained. And wondering why you’re still not making the impact you want to make. Believe it or not, trying to do so many different things is actually a form of self-sabotage. Spreading your energy too thin does nothing for you. In fact, it keeps you from accomplishing much at all....
