Jill uses her gift of storytelling and uses her words to paint three pictures that the listener can see vividly and clearly as they extract a personal message and lesson for themselves.

[2:27] - Every human being deserves to have these “ah-ha’s.”

[5:41] - Sometimes, the biggest gifts come from struggling. But suffering is optional.

[7:23] - Jill was convinced that she would learn something specific, but she had to learn something different and trust the process.

[9:01] - Integration and embodiment can be used in so many different areas. The difference between knowing in your head and knowing in your body.

[11:26] - Subtle change leads to huge change.

[12:45] - Jill describes the experience.

[15:10] - “It’s a trick question. I choose both.”

[16:57] - The second lesson is all about how Jill’s art will be perceived.

[18:45] - Someone could have told me these things, but I had to experience this and release so much through physical discomfort to access this.

[21:18] - Jill describes what she saw that led to the third lesson learned in this journey.

[23:48] - What if we look back at trauma and painful experiences as a grown adult and not from the perspective of a child?

Meet one of Jill’s dearest friends and soul sisters, who happens to be 20 years younger. What? YES!

Sydney Pacula Owen has a love for both the energetic world unseen and our earthly three dimensional experience. She professionally works as a jewelry designer in her family’s Diamond business focusing on engagement rings and redesigning the old to new. In her creative work, dance is her religion. She has taught creative movement and movement arts to all ages over the past 15 years. Her teaching emphasizes dance as an enjoyable, authentic form of expression. She finds her greatest fulfillment in connecting with others through art whether it be diamonds or dance.

Listen as they explore unconventional friendship, spirituality, the healing art of intuitive dance, and what it means to find God without rules.

[2:08] - Do you have relationships with other people that aren’t easy? Do they feel forced or feel like they don’t flow well?

[7:50] - Check out Sydney’s website: Pacula Diamonds.

[25:43] - Sydney had to learn to just trust in the space she has created.

[27:30] - Sydney explains how and why she got into dancing and movement as a way to overcome her disconnection.

[31:53] - Intuitive dance is not planned or choreographed. It will be different every time because it is what you need at the moment.

[35:03] - Give yourself the time and space to just be.

[38:47] - By connecting with her body and truly loving herself through movement and dance, she was able to love herself and her body more.

[41:21] - Sydney describes her faith and how her spirituality doesn’t fit into societal religious practice.

[45:13] - Jill has discovered the freedom of being in tune with herself and finding God there.

[47:50] - Prayer and church do not need to look the same for everyone.

[54:21] - Sydney has always been told that she is “an old woman.”

After talking about how we sometimes pretend not to know what to do, this week Jill explains how to know if it's intuition and truth or interference.

And today is the day you get asked a really sobering question.

Tune in to find out what that question is....

[2:21] - With any type of deep inner work, you are going to create new neural pathways and new ways of being.

[3:44] - Your intuition will not lead you to confusion.

[4:36] - If it comes from divine truth, it will not be a wobble. It will be clear.

[8:01] - How do you know if something is intuition? How do you know if something is true for you?

[9:23] - If there’s any area of your life where you are not fully yourself, how long are you willing to continue that?

[12:01] - If you are your true authentic self, you are going to trigger some other people.

[13:27] - I will not abandon myself for anyone. When you walk this way, you will recognize the wobble and discern the difference.

[16:12] - When are you going to honor your own guidance? When are you going to step into the role of leading yourself?
