Have you ever stopped to marvel at someone’s wondrous, spiritual journey? Are you pining for a deeper spiritual or emotional connection to the world and others, but struggle to begin? You might be kindred spirits with many Intense Women who have struggled to fully express their more mystic side. The world is so wide, and sometimes it takes a little leap of faith, and maybe a ticket across the ocean, to begin to see all that the world has to offer!

Our guest today is Sarah “Sadie” McCarthy-Sitthiket, a fellow Portlander who has always been reaching for a deep connection. Her views on self-expression radically changed on a visit to Thailand. Seeing that another culture allowed her to unlock her hidden gifts, she decided to move to Thailand and take root in her own spiritualism. Now she is running the show at the Chaing Mai Community House in Thailand, where she leads people to open their heart through fine arts, Tarot readings, and her own poetic “Tarotetry.” Later this month, Sarah will be joining us at Quinn Mountain to share her knowledge of Tarot and encourage us to open our hearts and be a little curious. Sarah’s journey is one that you do not want to miss out on!          

More to explore in this episode:

  • How a love of people led Sarah to embrace other cultures.
  • Experience Sarah’s journey to Thailand.
  • Our families, no matter how supportive, can still deeply impact our spiritual journey.
  • Sacrificing your ego in order to heal it.
  • Having to learn to operate in different cultural codes is a difficult, but worthwhile discipline.
  • Learning from difficult times to sympathize with others.
  • Intensity is like riding a surfboard!
  • Sarah has learned to listen, and that has helped her transform other people’s inner power.
  • All the details you need about our Tarot Workshop!

Have you ever tried to force a wave? How'd that work out for you? When we are faced with intense emotions or uncertainty, it is tempting to push towards or against things, when it might be more effective to just ride the wave.

In this week's episode, Aurora shares:

  • About times she has faced the urge to force things.
  • What inspired her to "surf the waves."
  • Some of the fun things she has coming up at Quinn Mountain Retreat.

Have you ever felt full of emotions, but unable to express any of them? Do you see your emotions as a superpower, or as your Achilles Heel? Intense Women tend to feel things deeply, but instead of arming ourselves with emotions we bottle them up until we explode. Those explosions are not just our problem because they can begin to influence the people around us. Relationships are hard enough without feelings getting in the way! How can we begin to use our emotions as a fuel for intimacy and a source of inner fire? 

    

Our guest this week is Valerie Greene, who knows just a bit about how to transform emotions into energy. Valerie grew up in a household where emotions just weren’t talked about. It wasn’t until her unexpressed emotions began to affect her relationship with her husband that she realized emotions weren’t to be feared but embraced. After her divorce, Valerie decided she was going to focus on how our fleeting feelings fuel our relationships. She’s learned that emotions have a language, and we need to use it! Now she is using her fire as a coach and mentor who helps women have fulfilling relationships. Are you ready to explore Emotional Alchemy with Valerie? Then give this episode a listen! 

 

Thank you to everyone who has been on this podcast journey for the past 52 episodes. In the spirit of even more celebration, the Ignite Your Power Group Program is beginning again this Fall. You do not want to miss out!

 

More in this episode: 

  • Valerie shares her story of learning to embrace her sensitivity. 
  • Going through a divorce allowed Valerie to fully explore the full range of her emotions. 
  • Dive into the process of Emotional Alchemy. 
  • Growing up without a language to express emotions. 
  • Valerie’s practices that help her connect to her emotions and her intensity. 
  • Strategies that a family can use to make a space for emotions. 
  • Free Video Training and resources are available from Valerie’s website.

Have you ever thought about what coaching can do for you? Have you heard about Aurora’s programs on this Podcast, or considered joining a Retreat at Quinn Mountain? Why make the investment in coaching, and how can it change your life? Sometimes, it’s best to hear from someone’s who has done it all! Meet Alesia Zorn, Aurora’s longtime client, and creative businesswoman. Alesia knew from the moment she picked up a ballpoint pen to learn cursive that she loved hand lettering and calligraphy. She had a thriving business and leadership role, but it was draining the life out of her. That changed after coaching!

Alesia is intellectually and creatively intense, and each time she signed up for a group coaching session or joins a retreat, she has learned something new about herself. Coaching has allowed Alesia to pull out the most valuable tools from Aurora’s group program, which enabled her to step out on faith and make her business work for her. Now, Alesia uses coaching to refine her business, recover and take care of herself, and embrace that intensity in a way that is changing the world with beautifully crafted words. Aurora is excited to share with you a success story that is just as much about past breakthrough as well as future growth!

Also in this episode:

  • Alesia talks about how she uses calligraphy and lettering to express her creativity.
  • Choosing clients well will lead to a more fulfilling career.
  • Coaching allowed Alesia to unlock her true joy in life and change her perspective on her business.
  • Maintaining self-care is important for creative businesspeople.
  • Recovery is important!
  • Learn how the S.T.A.R method can change your life!
  • Healthy habits that can change your day-to-day routine.
  • Alesia shares the ways coaching is an ongoing process.

Impossible. The world seems to throw this word at you a lot, doesn’t it? For Intense, Exceptional, Gifted, and Intuitive people, our greatest strengths are often viewed as weaknesses and disabilities. When the world tries to label your dreams impossible, what can you do to harness your fire and show the world who’s boss? Wouldn’t you like to know there’s someone who has walked that hard road before, and come out the other end burning brighter than before?  

Dr. Melanie Hayes is the founder of Big Minds Unschool, a program that allows Twice Exceptional students to thrive in their own unique gifts. Melanie is also Twice Exceptional, and she knows what it is like to be a bright fire in a world that feels too small for her. After growing up with “impossible” dreams, Melanie learned to make her vision a reality. Now she is using her fire through coaching and Big Minds to change the world. This week, she will share her stories of growing up, success through unconventionality, and wisdom to inspire you to take the word “impossible” and transform it into a force of good.

Also in this episode:   

  • Melanie grew up as an intense kid with a bit of an existential, otherworldly perspective.
  • A fascination with twice exceptional minds.
  • Working within the extremes of life, and when life doesn’t seem to want to work with you!
  • Speaking up for intense kids in schools.
  • Learning to trust yourself and your instincts.
  • Why is it so hard to recognize our gifts?
  • Overcoming fear and letting go of limitations.
  • Life-coaching a holistic being.
  • Roundabout career paths and connecting to the work you do.

Jul 31, 2017

Has the world ever sent you the message that you are too overbearing? Has your passion come across as pushy or uncaring? For Intense women, we walk a tight line between being true to ourselves and communicating effectively. When the world is already sending women the message that they need to take up less space, to be mild and meek, Intense Women have the ability to make a change. We simply need to change the terms.

If you are ready to stop these mixed messages, then take a leaf out of Jenny Shih’s book. Jenny left her run-of-the-mill corporate job to pursue a job where she could make her own rules. Now, she uses her fire to equip women to start a business on their own terms. She believes that success is as unique as you are. This week, Jenny and Aurora share the ways that they have developed their business savvy while using their fire without burning out.          

  • Jenny’s inspiring business coaching philosophy.
  • Exploring healthy habits for introverts.
  • Knowing and trusting yourself and your feelings.
  • Jenny’s quiet time habits to help her pay attention to her body and her mind.
  • Harnessing creative fire with coaching systems.
  • The power of social media.

Are you more of a rationalist or a spiritualist? Do you ever feel conflicted between the two? This week, Aurora shares how she moved from straddling the woo woo fence to jumping in to get her Reiki Master Certification. 

As intense creative people, we often get stuck up in our heads and many alternative healing practices help get us out of our heads and into our bodies.

In this episode, Aurora describes:

  • How her own health issues have never responded to traditional western medical approaches. 
  • What approaches have worked in her own healing journey. 
  • The importance of community and connection.

Jul 17, 2017

When you think of energy—in the world around you, within you, working for you or conspiring against you—do you also think of your intensity as a part of it? Do you shy away from the prospect of healing your body with that intense energy? Have you even considered it? This week, Aurora sits down with friend and energy guide Samantha Brown to work through what it means to embrace the spiritual side of intensity.
Working with Samantha on energy healing was part of the major shift in Aurora’s life. Now is the time to embrace that part of the healing journey, and encourage others to do the same. Alternative healing is powerful, so let’s dive in and see how it all comes together. Samantha shares her personal experience of energy healing, and how that led her abroad to study Eastern medicine, become a devoted yogi, and share her intense passion for energy healing with the world.

Samantha’s intense passion for energy healing stemmed from her personal health journey.

  • Samantha’s experiences in China with energy healing.
  • Emotions behind each physical ailment.
  • Reiki is a tool to use alongside coaching.
  • The phases of healing.
  • Body Talk helps you go beyond crisis healing mode.
  • Cultivating your gifts to unlock your true potential.
  • Working through your shadow self.
  • Kundalini Yoga as a transformative superpower.

"You are so smart but..." "You have so much potential, if only..." "you just need to work harder." Are these words triggering for you? After years of being told these things in school, they definitely are for Aurora.

This week, Aurora talks about how despite feeling like she has pretty good self esteem, she still gets that feeling that she's not doing enough. 

In this episode, Aurora shares:

  • A bit of her own journey to discover how to work best with her own strengths and challenges
  • How things that seem "easy" for everyone else can be extremely difficult for her and others like her.
  • Why it's not about "working harder" and more about learning how you work.

To all Intense Women: here’s a question. What passions light your inner fire? What gets you talking a mile a minute? When was the last time you’ve been “too much?” There, where the answers to all of those questions intersect, is your calling and your purpose. In a society designed to conform and submit, it can seem daunting to chase those dreams, to allow yourself to feel that passion purely. We need someone to encourage us to embrace those passions and charge us to act on them. We need someone like Dr. Ashlee Greer. 

 

Ashlee is a psychiatrist turned coach who thinks the idea of being “Too Much” is all too prevalent. In this week’s episode, she shares her intense passion for all areas of life and encourages you to make some space to embrace who you truly are. Ashlee knows that for many women, we simply need a person to ask the right questions, and set an ample stage for your own beautiful creativity to take flight. 

 

Also in this week’s episode: 

  • Allow yourself the space to own all aspects of yourself. 
  • Let your passion grow by removing the parts of your life that are unfulfilling. 
  • How the “Too Much Girl” can be transformed from a label of judgment into a label of abundance.
  • Labels impact how we grow up. 
  • Schools and intensity: what needs to change? 
  • Ashlee shares her own journey towards embracing her true self and letting go of conformity.
  • Harnessing intensity through entrepreneurship and self-awareness. 
  • The importance of having a life motto. 
  • Allow yourself to feel the rhythm in life, rather than only finding flaws. 
  • Ashlee’s daily rituals to feel grounded in intensity. 
  • People-pleasing and the internal tug-of-war. 
  • Ashlee helps others by asking them what they want to create. She ignites their fire. 
  • A call for a societal shift, and the encouragement to go for it.

Have you ever reached that point of fatigue where you just don't have the energy to do the things you know might energize you? You are so exhausted, you think "what's the point?" So you go ahead and do the things you know will make you more tired later.

In this episode Aurora Shares:

  • The tree main things that come to mind that helped move from surviving to thriving.
  • Her adventures with food that led to further explorations on what energizes and drains her.

In this episode, Aurora shares lessons learned about:

Have you found that one person who just "gets you"? As an intense and spirited person, it can be a challenge to find connection and community with other like-minded people. This is exponentially true if you are an introvert or have any kind of social anxiety.

In this episode, Aurora discusses:

  • How making a friend as an adult out of school can be like asking someone out on a date.
  • The steps she took to make new friends in a new town.
  • Pitfalls to avoid when reaching out to others.
  • How you can join her community of gifted women for our first live "unconference."

We all have a Big Idea. A dream that is bigger than a dream, and it just might actually work out. So where do you get your Big Ideas? Do you have a plan in place to make that happen? When push comes to shove, sometimes it takes something, or someone, to help us get our dreams into motion. For an Intense woman, (especially an intense mom), it can be much more daunting to put those ideas to work on your own. We need someone who gets it to encourage us on our adventure.

Aria Leighty is a glitter-loving Mother and Business owner who loves to connect and support other Moms with their Big Ideas. Aria knows a thing or two about controlling the chaos that we Intense Women can sometimes stir up for ourselves. From years of practice honing her fire, Aria has turned her own Big Ideas into the MOB Northwest, a group supporting the efforts of Business Savvy Moms that has been a huge success. Learn from Aria’s experience and be encouraged by her empathy and passion as she and Aurora talk about what it means to make it big!

 

Also on this week’s episode

  • Aria describes how her Big Ideas can quickly turn into unorganized chaos.
  • How to harness Mania and Intense Fire in a productive way. Taking time to pause and look at the big ideas.
  • Difficulty in connecting as a child has led to a passion for interconnectedness as an adult.
  • How to find women who will dispel doubts about yourself.
  • Hear about the ways Aria’s Mobile Art Studio impacted her community.
  • Navigate the madness of trying to do too much.
  • Aria demonstrates how she takes her Big Ideas into Realistic Big Ideas.

Have you ever confused passion for drama? As an intense person, you may crave intensity in a partner, but when two intense people get together there can be challenges with meshing two strong personalities together. 

Aurora found this to be true in her first relationship and assumed it was just a biproduct of two intense people getting together. She has since learned that it is possible to have intensity and passion in a relationship with minimal drama!

In this episode, Aurora shares:

  • A personal account of her major relationship milestones. 
  • What it looked like for her when she found passion without the drama.
  • The key elements in maintaining good communication between two intense people.

Growing up, we all looked up to some kind of role model: a teacher, a parent, a celebrity, or a mentor. What steps did they take to accomplish a goal? How did they get to where they are going? Sometimes, even in our adult lives, we need a role model—someone who has harnessed their intensity in a positive way and found success in their personal and professional life. This week’s guest on “Embracing Intensity” is Brittani Nelson, and she is without a doubt a role model for the Intense and Excitable woman.

What does it really look like to harness intensity in a constructive way? Brittani and Aurora chat this week about what a superpower intensity can be! Brittani is truly the Business Matchmaker with a focus on constructing a community, not just a network. In building her business, she used her intensity to start and grow her scope, tackle being a single mother, and engage in a new romantic relationship all at once! It seems like an impossible task, but tune in this week to see the simple, practical steps that Brittani uses to embrace her life and chase her dreams.

 

Also in this week’s episode:

  • Hear Brittani’s community mindset for her Business and Networking Strategy
  • Learn how mutually beneficial relationships between businesses and clients can truly build community.
  • See the ways that Brittani utilizes her own strengths as a small business owner.
  • Intensity really is a strength! Brittani explains why.
  • Aurora and Brittani chat about the impact of personal relationships on their own businesses.
  • Discover the power of the habit of Reflection. Learn from each adventure.
  • See the importance of self-care and balancing time with family.

Do you feel like your brain goes on and on and on without stopping sometimes? Or perhaps you rehash the same thing over and over again? Does your mind think of everything at once or jump right to the most efficient route and get bogged down by the details?

In this episode, Aurora describes:

  • Two types of overthinkers she's observed in her League of Excitable Women group. 
  • The common thread that ties overthinkers together. 
  • Some strategies to help find your focus when there's so much going on in your brain.
