Do you Struggle to Trust your Guides?

Do you Struggle to Trust your Guides?

 “ What’s more vulnerable to admit is I look back and see how I blamed them for that, instead of taking the beautiful lessons that came out of it and owning my power.  I had one really big initiation with this, in which I outsourced my power to a guide, and paid tonnes thinking that they would ‘fix’ my problems.  And the biggest takeaway I got from that was that I was giving my power away to someone else.”

~ Nicole Barton

Oh have I journeyed with mistrusting my Guides over the years?  And this is a really common fear that comes up when magical women are thinking about joining our Mystery School to discover their purpose + create a business from them.

I have had many a Teacher, Spiritual Guide, Mentor, Coach + Soul Guide over the years, ranging in investment from a few hundred pounds to tens of thousands - and in truth, when working with many of them, I’ve hit up against not creating what I wanted to create.

It feels vulnerable to share that - and against the grain when I’m here to guide women myself, but in my journey with guides from the self-help and personal development world I took away very little of what I’d hoped to gain.

Your Feminine Expression Liberation Survival Guide

Your Feminine Expression Liberation Survival Guide

 “ One of the challenges that magical women hit up against in creating their soul business is intimacy in their RELATIONSHIPS - where they fear their full expression not being welcome, and shut down. If this is a struggle, it’s really a sign we need to heal our Witch Wound.”

~ Nicole Barton

Here’s our survival guide…

Open your heart + lean in to your triggers- know that intimacy triggers are part of the process of your Divine Feminine liberation + welcome them with open arms to reveal more about how you can step into leadership from soul purpose.  Triggers are happening FOR us, not TO us.

Go gently on yourself - remember the key to liberation is LOVE - whatever comes up for you as a block as you learn to express yourself is wanting you to learn how to hold your expansion by being more loving to yourself - and lean how to be your full self in relationship.

How to Align with + Express your Soul Purpose

How to Align with + Express your Soul Purpose

 “ You’ve a unique set of healing gifts - your Medicina - that you were put here on earth to serve to the collective.  It isn’t your tools that are your gifts; it’s YOU.”

~ Nicole Barton

Realise that you were born here for a reason - you’ve a unique set of healing gifts - your Medicina - that you were put here on earth to serve to the collective.  It isn’t your tools that are your gifts; it’s YOU.

Set an intention - it sounds obvious, but if you’re not being intentional about aligning with your soul purpose, it won’t happen - let’s get specific.  Show up every day with an intention to align - and then it’s inevitable that you’ll become the woman you’re meant to be.

Which stage of Expression are you in? Good Girl / Rebel / Soul

Which stage of Expression are you in?  Good Girl / Rebel / Soul

 “ In the journey to true soul expression, we often move through different stages of relational healing until we arrive at true soul expression.  It’s not linear - it’s likely we will bounce around moving between the different stages - but it IS likely you’ll be in one of them more often then another. ”

~ Nicole Barton

Three Stages of Soul Expression - for Magical Business

These are three common ones that filter into the way we relate: Good Girl, Rebel, Soul

Are you Feeling Triggered by me?

Are you Feeling Triggered by me?

 “ In peeking, courageously, into that mirror she saw her own power to fully express her own magic.”

~ Nicole Barton

It takes a deep level of courage to choose into this work - often the choosing of the work itself is an initiation. And I'm here to love you in that.

I felt such a depth of love this morning for a magical woman who courageously opened to share with me, very powerfully, that she was feeling triggered by me. She's given me permission to share this, as it feels deeply serving.

Her message arrived to my inbox to let me know she was considering joining Naja, because she'd been feeling strangely drawn to it and was being nudged by magical synchronicity - a Snake arrived at her front door (she's not the first woman to share this)

It's not Soul vs Business

It's not Soul vs Business

 “If a union is to take place between opposites like spirit and matter, conscious and unconscious, bright and dark, and so on, it will happen in a third thing, which represents not a compromise but something new.”

~ Carl Jung

🔥💫IT’S NOT SOUL VS BUSINESS💫🔥

Something that magical women often fear is that they have to make a choice between living from soul OR creating a business. As if the business side of things will have them quivering in the corner, a nervous, burdened and burned out mess.

And I saw this week that one of the gifts I've not yet owned very boldly out loud as part of my soul-business support is my branding and PR expertise.

How Listening Deeply Can Transform Our Lives

“I hadn’t known it, but all I had really ever needed was nothing more than someone to hold my hand and deeply listen.”  ~ Nicole Barton

About 5 years ago, I was deeply suffering in a life that didn’t feel like it was my own, but felt more as if it were a bad dream.  I remember feeling a sense of hopelessness, and much of the time it manifested as anger.

As the dark evenings drawn in earlier, and the leaves begin to change colour, and it gets just that little bit colder, we can begin to get jittery; and it’s not just because we are heading towards winter, either.

“Suffering is not holding you; you are holding suffering” ~ Buddha

Someone challenged me the other day in a way that I didn’t expect. They asked me if I ‘suffered.’ At first I had a lot of resistance to suffering.

“Everything in the universe is within you.” ~Rumi

When I was twenty-three, I lost my job through chronic illness. I thought my life had ended, and I spent the next few years an anxious, panicky mess—often hysterical.

This morning I awoke feeling uncertain about the direction my life was taking. Was it what I wanted in all areas?

We all want to feel free. Whether that’s roaming the globe, working as a digital nomad, having independence – or simply just choosing when we can have a yummy matcha latte.
