On Wednesday, I was back on The Spiritual Business Hour with my business bestie, Crystal Lynn Bell, for our monthly Woo Wednesday deep dive. This time it was about midlife spiritual rebirth for coaches.
Partway through, Crystal Lynn said something about me that I haven't stopped thinking about. It wasn't about what I teach. It was about what happens to people when they're in the room with me.
What my business bestie noticed
Crystal Lynn has been coming to Life Force Activation™, and she told her audience what's shifted for her. She feels more grounded and more capable. She feels good in her skin and good as a businesswoman. And she's become even more receptive.
Then she went further. She said that when I speak, I speak from authority, and when she listens, something in her expands without her trying. She isn't working at it; she's listening and allowing, and when she is experiencing my authority, she expands her own, ultimately becoming better at her work. She also said that business owners need a shaman in their back pocket. I'm that shaman.
She saw my receptivity long before she came to a single practice. We've been connecting since July 2026, when we met at her Liberated Coach Summit.
Authority isn't created by a title. People feel it when you're present in your body and connected to your soul.
Where my receptivity comes from
I started my daily practice at 20 because I was searching for meaning after a tragic loss; I needed to know what I'm here to do, and I had nowhere to go but inside. Books gave me practices, so I practiced them, and it helped me start developing my own.
Practicing and creating a routine came from growing up around harness racehorses. With racehorses, you have to be consistent to create progress and growth. That's how they get into the race, and even have a chance to get into the winner's circle and have their picture taken. It works the same way for us. A consistent routine is what brings you into alignment with your highest potential.
After a while of consistent practice, I noticed I was less anxious and worried, both at work and in my relationships. Then I realized I'd opened a channel that had always been inside me, and I became more aware. I could sense my consciousness expanding. I was studying the tarot, creating art, writing every day, and feeling life like it was magic, because I was experiencing what it feels like to be connected, aligned, supported, and intentional. It also showed me that when you practice, you can keep expanding your capacity to be more conscious and receptive. This is why I have continued practicing for thirty years.
Everything I teach in Life Force Activation™ was seeded and grown from that day I started when I was 20 years old.
Authority lives in the body
So many of us had our intuition and imagination shut down when we were young because we were told to be quiet and not to talk about what we sensed or shine too bright. So we started talking from the front of our heads and navigating out of our bodies, because it didn’t feel safe to be ourselves.
That costs you when your business is built on your presence, life experience, and the collection of modalities you’ve mastered. What we do as coaches and healers isn't mainstream, and it isn’t tangible unless our clients experience the results for themselves. But when we practice presence and speak with authority, we can transmit and share what being present would be like for others. Essentially, we lead by example and stay grounded in presence so we can be heard, seen, and remembered.
When you are present in your body and you speak, people can hear you.
When you speak from your womb space (for men, the lower dantian), your heart learns to open automatically, and your mind relaxes and becomes receptive. I’ve led Life Force Activation™ over 500 times now; this is what I've experienced. When you practice intentionally a couple of times a week, you get really good at being present in everything and anything you do: working at your desk, being on a Zoom, speaking on a podcast, cooking, cleaning, and communicating with your spouse. Your soul isn't hanging out in front of you anymore. It's connected, aligned, and inside you.
That's what people feel as authority.
Receptivity is how the right people find you
Being present and receptive is how Crystal Lynn came into my life. I believe my soul called her in. My intention has always been to work with people who are living with purpose and realizing what they came here to do through their creations.
Being present and energetically clear, knowing who you are, what you do, and how you serve, will magnetize all the right opportunities and people to you.
Try this in one minute
You don't need an hour. Take one minute for yourself, right now.
Take a deep breath in and let out a big sigh. Do it three times.
Notice your feet. Imagine them touching the earth.
Picture your breath moving through the channel inside you, from your womb space or pelvic bowl, up through your heart and throat, to the center of your mind between your ears, and back down.
Tell your body: refresh, renew, recalibrate, and raise my frequency. Send it with love and gratitude and notice what you experience.
Come practice with me
Most people are running on a quarter tank of energy or life force. Overachievers and midlife women often give more than they receive, and after a while, it can take its toll. The Life Force Activation™ Live Practice Studio fills you up so you're in a state of overflow and have plenty of reserves to accomplish your plans.
Practice with me live on Zoom in these classes:
Earth Force Activation™: Tuesdays and Fridays at 6:00 AM Vancouver time, 30 Minutes
Sun Force Activation™: Wednesdays at 12:00 PM Vancouver time, 15 Minutes
It's not about coming to do it for me. It's about coming to do it for yourself.
Try Life Force Activation™ for two weeks for $1
