Morgana - Your Wealth is in Your Weirdness

Morgana Rae When I first became a life coach I was really concerned about being taken seriously, sounding professional, and not looking like a freak. Not much has changed: I still care about all that stuff.

But I discovered over time that the more professional and non-freaky I try to sound, the more INVISIBLE I become. The minute I start to talk like a professional coach and go into one of those elevator speeches I spent so much money to learn (you know exactly what I’m talking about, don’t you?)… I can see the other person’s EYES GLAZE OVER before they start scanning the room for someone more interesting.

I can’t begin to tell you how annoying that is.

Then one day, years ago, I stood up at a large networking meeting of high powered female entrepreneurs, pulled out a magic wand and called myself a “witchy” coach, and said something about how “goddesses can be old or young, thin or fat, can do what they want, charge what they want (and Aphrodite sleeps with whomever she wants, and no one dares criticize HER!), and they don’t apologize.” I said, “That’s what I want to see for ALL women!”

You could hear a pin drop.

Then every woman in that room asked me for my business card. Interesting, huh?

I hope by now that we’ve established that it’s not enough to be the greatest coach/consultant/healer/artist/virtual assistant/chef/trainer/teacher/shaman/author. You also have to be known by the people who need you, and the only way they’re going to see you is if you (in the words of Jimi Hendrix) “let your freak flag fly.”

I’m not saying go out there and get yourself lynched (common sense, of course), but as your Money Honey will always tell you, nothing is more attractive than being authentically you.Your authenticity creates permission for others to be authentic as well, and they’ll thank you for it.

I was thinking about the Sermon on the Mount, and the statement “The meek shall inherit the earth.” The transcribers got it all wrong. They should have said the GEEKS shall inherit the earth. Because we’re ALL geeks, and we root for our own.

Your wealth is in your weirdness. That’s what connects you to us. All those things you find embarrassing, or even painful, are the key to your contribution in this life. It’s ALCHEMY, baby!

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - To MILF or not to MILF this Mothers Day

I don’t know if you have those to-do piles that just sit there, you WANT to get to them, you MEAN to get to them, and you OUGHT to get to them… while this video was in one of those piles. It took less than 10 minutes to do. Why did I put it off? Well if you’re like me, we only procrastinate with things we either don’t really want to do, or doing them will make us have to face something we’re not ready to face, internally or externally. We’re literally choosing not to face it and calling it procrastination. So I guess I didn’t want to face/own being a MILF. Really owning my badass queen Harley boots, pole dancing, MILF essence. I don’t even know what I’ve really made it all mean… just that I’m WAY more potent than I realize and my erotic creature is WAY overdue coming out to play, to create adventures, to embrace life and to shine!! So you know I call my women’s membership Redefining Sexuality , because I sure don’t care for the definition of sex or sexy… it’s void of honor, care and ...
