Have you ever had something you were excited about, but chose to keep safely to yourself? Here’s something I would never have considered sharing publicly – but times are changing…

I was out running in the hills with a full moon rising, when a fierce bobcat, secretive and rarely seen by humans, revealed himself to me on the trail. Time stopped. Stunning. Stealth. He grabbed me with his stare, and I sensed his power immediately; I knew without a doubt that he could pounce straight  for my jugular if need be. “I come in peace. I come in peace,” I panted, bowing. Without letting me out of his sight, the bobcat walked s-l-o-w-l-y off into the brush.

“You passed the test,” I heard. “What test?” I asked breathlessly as I raced home. I was shaken up, but I wanted an answer, so I googled ‘bobcat totem’ immediately. It said: “Share your intuitive powers. Even more, teach others how to hear and act upon the guidance of their own soul. It will help them through their challenges.”

“What is at stake if I don’t share?” I asked.

“Simple: you’ll get sick. Power unexpressed turns in on you.” That sounded familiar.

Six months ago, my husband badly injured his knee. Our family business – a progressive construction company – was at a crossroads. He could no longer walk and work in the trenches. Something had to shift. I did a divination ceremony in the hills to ‘download’ a new map for our family.

For me, a ‘download’ is an intimate conversation with my Source – the wise ones who reside in the territory of the soul. It’s like phoning God, and the reception is most clear when I dance, run or do anything highly physical. Until now, I’ve been discreet as to when and where I speak of this part of my life.

When I did the ceremony on behalf of my husband, the New Map was crystal clear: we were to partner up together, 50/50. Incorporate, sell the extra trucks, hire a new manager + technicians, and streamline the revenue channels. Big changes. It didn’t seem entirely logical at the time, but being the Jaguar Woman that I am, I chose to follow the guidance I had received.

And? It’s going well! It’s been a great learning experience for us: best friends + lovers + now biz partners. And every step of the way, I – a woman by her man – do my daily energy practices, pray, listen and intuitively guide our spaceship.

Though I spend part of my time busy-bee-managing a corporation, mentoring the private clients of the Jaguar Woman Academy is what feeds my spirit. I cherish the moment we meet: you step through the veil, past the loss, hurt and self-criticism. The walls around your heart soften, and you slip into the territory of the soul. Ahhh. Light. You can breathe like never before. (It’s highly pleasurable!) And often for the first time, from inside yourself, you hear

‘Honey, you are doing everything right. Trust yourself unconditionally.’  
As your great adventure begins, you realize that you will never be alone – or the same – again.

I have heeded the advice of the Bobcat Emperor to open 10 additional spots for private clients.  Three are already taken. If you feel that one of the seven remaining spots is yours, here is what you do:

Book a Laser Beam Clarity session today.
For the month of January I am offering these Clarity sessions complimentary ($300 Value). Here is exactly what will happen once we get on the phone:

1. Get Crystal Clarity: refine your 2012 vision. Far beyond elusive goals. What does your soul summon you toward? What do you really want, but fear can’t possibly come true? Dive IN and discover the hidden pearls that are yours and ready for the taking.

2. Bust the self-perpetuated myth of ‘I don’t have it in me.’ Together we identify the obstacles that lurk in your shadows, and devise a New Map of action: Leap. What baggage are you carrying that no longer serves you? It’s time to release it.  What is at stake if you don’t leap? Break the chain. Upgrade your self-worth. Become unstoppable. You – yes, you.

3. Get a feel for what it’s like to work together long term. Ask burning questions. Get heart-to-heart answers. Both you and I want to have that gut feeling: “Yes, she gets me!” And be sure to ask for special pricing offered to candidates only at a Clarity session.

I am 100% IN.

You?

Just leap. 2012 is your year! (You already know it.)

Final wisdom from the Bobcat Emperor: “Even if there is no logical reason, trust what your inner voice is saying.”  Honey, if my story is your Yes, grab your session here.

With fierce love and commitment,

Happy Holy days, my wonderful readers!

I love this time of the year. I go into my Winter Womb to reflect:
write + pray + watch movies + make out in candle light.  Heaven.

Your official permission to blow off your to-do list and dissolve into the moonlight is here: Winter Solstice, December 21, 22 and 23. Twelve years ago I had this vision on a Winter Solstice:

A mystical woman stands at the top of a staircase. Cloaked in a flowing, transparent blue cape, she summons me up. ‘What is your name?’ I ask. ‘Sofia,’ she replies. Climbing white marble steps suspended in the air – stars spilled all over Sofia’s blue cloak – I stand at the gateway beside her. “Open the door,” she says. I do.

The next moment, we are floating on our backs in a still, quiet lake. But it has no earth-dirt to hold it – just water, suspended, floating through the cosmos. Sparkly blackness all around.

I reach out and touch a star.

Speaking of stars…drum roll, please!

Little-Known Secrets for Setting Your New Year Intentions*
*(and actually receiving what it is that you want!)

Let yourself rest in these weeks; the Moonlight will protect you while you sleep. Allow 2011 fade into memory, its praises and blames, its gains and losses – especially the grievances you hold against yourself. It is time to release the criticism and shame with which you beat yourself up.

Let yourself loose. Let it all be washed over you. Breathe again. Forgive yourself.
Your 2012 resolutions will bounce right off if you’ve armored yourself in a hard shield of grievances. Let it all go. You must soften to receive the new and marvelous.

Five Ways to Soften Your Heart and Receive in Style:

1. Make a list of what you’re grateful for.
2. Let yourself cry in reverence for the one more day that you (and your loved ones) get to live.
3. Howl at the moon when you feel angry, hurt and not at all grateful.
4. Scream in your car in a remote corner of a large parking lot.
5. Listen to So Much Magnificence by Miten.

Release the burdens of the year past so that you may step into the New Year light on your feet. And take soul flight.  Pay those you owe. Redeem those who owe you. Forgive yourself for all judgments you hold against yourself.

You are a precious child of God.
You cannot make a permanent mistake in an impermanent world. (In other words: you don’t have the power to F- it up!)

Now go party! And dream big dreams!
Happy Holy Days!

Last week I shared my big news about being featured in the bestseller sequel The Twelve Secrets of Highly Successful Women. Am I still glowing with excitement? Of course I am! Unexpected fame is such a juicy opportunity to share my passion, creativity and joy!

Besides getting to share the spotlight with the very women I myself admire (Lisa Sasevich, Ali Brown, Victoria Moran and and JJ Virgin, just to name a few), this week I had the opportunity to interview author Gail McMeekin herself!

It was a tremendous honor to be interviewed by her about my own personal road to success for the book. I naturally was so excited to turn the tables and get her insight on core issues that affect all relationships.

My Interview With Bestselling Author Gail McMeekin

 1. Gail, what have you noticed is the biggest challenge for women in being a type-A go-getter on the one hand, but then flipping the switch to being receptive, trusting and feminine in the bedroom?

While you can’t beat spontaneity in the bedroom, changing gears is often too hard unless you make a plan, strange as that sounds. Women need time to unplug, get in the mood, and spend quality time with their partner. We also know that having our partner do something special for us can be an aphrodisiac. It can even be something as simple as unloading the dishwasher, picking up your dry-cleaning, taking the kids so you can have some quiet time, or massaging your feet.

In my own life and in the lives of clients, date nights really do work. You clear the decks and go out together and have some fun, break some patterns and get out of ruts, and remember why you are a couple! And when you go out, don’t sit at a restaurant both texting other people on your phones. Romance needs our full attention.

Each of us has our own mix of masculine and feminine styles, and ideally we want to integrate them so that we don’t feel like two different people – aggressive at work, and passive in romance. We want to find our Authentic Self and try to be her in all situations – but we still have to flip a switch from work to love mode  and be conscious about it.

2. How do you personally keep your marriage H O T?

I adore my husband, so that makes it pretty easy to stay connected. We love to travel and find romantic places to stay and re-discover each other. We do have date nights, either at home or out, where we play music we love and hide out from work and other responsibilities – or go out and do something novel that we can both enjoy.

When we moved into our house our bedroom was painted red, which the Feng Shui folks say is an erotic color. We have grown to like the warm feeling in that room and have kept the color. Even though I am a writer/coach and work at home some days in my PJ’s or sweats, I make a point to put on something attractive in the evening to change the mood from work, to play! We also love to take walks and hold hands when walking and sleeping.

3. When a successful woman thinks about having an intimate relationship with a significant other, what is a healthy way to be together around money?

As you know, couples fight a lot about money, so you need to have a plan. Some couples are fine pooling all of their money together, and some are not. It often depends on whether the couple has complementary money styles. With second marriages and lots of business assets, some women are asking for pre-nups, which may make sense. Another model that works is having each partner keep their own bank accounts, and then have a joint account that they both contribute to for paying bills, taxes, home repairs, etc. That way, each person has their own money to spend as they wish. But it is important to have conversations about retirement savings, long-term care insurance, children, etc., so that you have a joint plan for the future that you both contribute to.

Another alternative is for couples to pool their money for the most part, but each keep a personal savings account that gets funded regularly for special things, like spa treatments, fancy shoes, sporting events, art classes, etc. Regardless of which model you choose, there has to be trust as a foundation. When couples have addictions and/or start hiding money info, trouble is brewing. When I did couples counseling for many years, we used to say that there are 6 people in every marital bed – the couple, and both sets of parents. All of those points of view and practices have to be sorted out so that the new couple can work together – despite their differences – and find a happy compromise.

If you have a partner who is a gambler or out of control with money or doesn’t pay bills on time, you need to protect yourself from those credit risks. There can be other issues if the woman makes more or less money than her partner, and another key element is for the stay-at-home parent’s role to be valued and compensated. For couples who get caught in a tangled web around money, getting a money consultation with a CFP and/or therapist is essential if you want to keep the marriage romantic and happy. When the negotiations around planning and money are over, you need to flip the switch again and focus on each other!

Guess where I’ve been playing hooky for the last month?
The Black Sea!

At a spa appointment booked for just after my arrival, the manicurist asked, “Do you want hot pink nails?” My response? “If not on vacation, then when? Let’s do it!”
And so the adventure began.

What is your Hot Pink Nails desire? Something that you secretly want but haven’t yet given yourself? A wedding, a “babe,” a private art show, a trip to Bali?

While at the beach resort, my close girlfriend and I relaxed and took a walk in the sun. We were vibrant, sexy ladies, and thus naturally attracted the eyes of dark, tanned, handsome gentlemen. (Did you know that European men wear form-fitting speedos? No boxers at this resort!)  Watch a sassy video below.

We still pulsate by the laws of the jungle, a place where the male cat pursues the female cat with the most energetic potency. Because only such a female gives him the opportunity of self-realization.

And the more charged the pursuit, the stronger the male becomes. The female who gives herself away for free loses value in the eyes of the pursuer. And thus I realized:

Value yourself, and the whole world will value you, too!
Value your Self.

So what is at stake if you do not begin to value yourself – if you do not make the leap from who you are now, to who you are becoming?
You may lose love, gain weight, spiral into an illness, lose your job, or let your children down; you may let your life-long dream simply die.

I have a dream that the innocence, joy and passion of women
can be released freely, with vibrant, flying colors.

I believe that men and women can share sweet, honest intimacy together:
dancing, laughing, loving and creating together.

I believe that the Universe is a pure, unpackaged, orgasmic impulse creating
itself into a myriad of weddings, babies, prime shows and bestsellers.
It’s all here for the taking.

But it’s your level of self-value that determines if you choose to sit it out or dance.

This is why I created the Jaguar Woman Academy.
Master your energetic potency, and you heighten your capacity for
passion + intimacy + prosperity.
All ancient ceremonies and technologies are tested – and proven to work.

Last year’s Jaguar Woman graduates are a testament to the power of the course:
a love story to live for, new radio and TV show opportunities, income increases of 70%, a book published, and sexy slim-down makeovers.

It’s all so supremely awesome! I am literally squealing with delight.

So…as I return to San Francisco from my adventure in The Black Sea, I am opening the doors to the Jaguar Woman Academy 2012:  Special Priority List

If you have been wanting to work with me, this is the time, honey!
Ten spots are now open – two were snatched before I could even write this letter.

To get on the priority list, simply email me (your email to me can be blank or write whatever you like).

I will personally reply with the details.

With great Passion and Joy,

Have you ever had a dream that seemed too big to come true?

Gather round, friends. This is the story of a brave little gymnast, her leap of faith and one very, very effective dose of modern enchantment.

Once upon a time, in the former Soviet Union, there lived a wee, blonde Olga-child. She had been trained as a gymnast since the tender age of five, leaping on command and following every instruction. One night, she hid a note under her mattress that read ‘I will become a champion. I will live in America. I will speak English.’

In 1994, 14 year old Olga came to the U.S. on a tour before the Atlanta Olympics.

When it was time to return to the Soviet Union, she didn’t get back on the bus.

Making a life in America wasn’t easy. She worked hard to put herself through school but eventually she was notified that she’d be deported in three months if she didn’t get married and obtained a Green Card. How’s that for pressure?!

Olga decided to focus her Olympic-caliber concentration and precision into a Union Ceremony to meet her future husband. She took a leap of faith and that night, Arnold Schwarzenegger himself appeared  in her dream — waving and full of gap-toothed smiles. Obviously, this meant her future husband lived in California, right?!

Olga’s bus pulled into San Francisco’s Union Square at midnight, under a full moon.
And there, standing under a street lamp was the most gorgeous man Olga had ever seen.

And when he opened that gorgeous mouth, you know what came spilling out? The language of her home!

Olga grabbed this handsome Russian’s hands and they twirled together under the stars laughing like children. She told him ‘You are the reason why I didn’t get back on that bus.’ They spent that night together and haven’t been apart ever since.

My leap of faith was using a bit of ancient ceremony power to make my dream real. I will tell you all about it in a free strategy session. Be prepared for:

Ancient ceremony + Dancing + Sisterhood = Accelerated Results!

Now, have you ever taken a leap of faith — either in your personal or professional life? What was your secret mojo? Share your wisdom in the comments below. Can’t wait to hear

Ever wonder ‘If I am so smart, why are relationships so hard?’ I get it. Recently I realized that my Olympic training gave me the tenacity edge that still produces great results in my business. But it presented a challenge in the bedroom initially. So I interviewed 10 smart sassy women and here is my big Aha! solution. Ready…

I am loving the many great tales of failure, victory and celebration I receive. For example, recent discoveries by my friend and colleague Hillary Rubin as well as one by Bari Tessler.

When I was an Olympic Gymnast one time my team was going for the Gold. However, in the middle of my ribbon routine I literally fell on my butt. Not pretty! We got the bronze. I was exiled from the team and nicknamed ‘the girl who falls on her ass’ for years to come.

Watch the Ribbon Dance video below—this one is years after the wipe out

The good that came out of it was I had to break through the shame of that incident. I trained day and night to become the best skilled technician, and make a comeback. The coach couldn’t help but put me back on the team.

The bad thing is that this ‘tight ass’ tenacity had become my coping mechanism for almost everything in life. It helped me to defect to America alone at 14 years old. It put me through college. But years later when I became involved with my husband, I realized this go-getter skill was actually a disadvantage in the bedroom.

So I tried the cup-cake baking housewife dance for a while, and I loved it! Feeding my family, especially gourmet raw food, satisfies me. However, at night I was longing to manifest my dreams to write a book and start a business. I became depressed, and that was also a damper in the bedroom.

So I pulled myself up by the bootstraps, started a biz in 2006, and went to a gazillion networking events only to have my man ask, ‘Where do I fit it into all of this?’

Have you been here before? Wonder how can you ever win?

This is what I call bouncing around the Triangle of Disempowerment: the Housewifie, the Hard-hitting achiever, the Helpless dreamer.

The secret to changing this is to get off the triangle all together and write a New Story for yourself. Create a new character with a new costume who is dancing a new dance.

A member of my Jaguar Inner Circle actually said recently:

‘If I am so smart, why do I have relationship problems?’

I get it. You can loop around for years, decades really. And it doesn’t have to be that way. You can have it all—soul-partnership with shared creative vision AND hot-n-bothered sweaty sexy. I knew you would like that

The key is to first have a ceremony. And it has two parts:

1.  Honor the parts/archetypes that have helped you become who you are now.

Do a creative self-expression ritual: paint, write, dance, sing, etc. Like my video above, honoring the Olympian archetype (she got me across the globe to a dream life, love her to pieces).

2. Call in to celebrate what is here now—outside the triangle of disempowerment.

A new emerging archetype I have found especially empowering for the modern women is ‘The Huntress’.

Pause and notice what this word brings up for you: excitement, curiosity, fear? If you are uncomfortable, great! That’s your cue to explore The Huntress. (If you need help, read below.) By getting in touch with The Huntress you can expect to feel freedom and more confidence in yourself as a lady, a lover, and a leader.

My friend and passionate business woman Christina Morassi said to me recently: ‘There is great education to be had about the link between intimacy and money for women entrepreneurs.’ (Read the rest of what she and other smart women say here).

This weekend I am presented with the Breakthrough Award of the Year by Powerful Women International.

I feel like the Empress, being coroneted. Pretty exhilirating! (Look! Feet in the air in the photo above.) And I want to celebrate together! That’s why I am called to open a gateway into my world of mythic adventure and in a way that feels right for you. If you have been reading my stuff wondering how you can take it further, this is definitely for you.

Unleashing the Inner Huntress Home-Ceremony has been a huge hit and is only available to my Jaguar Inner Circle members. BUT… until Thursday, May 12, 2011 - it’s Pay What You Can. Whaaaat?! Yes. This invitation is your gateway into my world. Disover the rewards you can reap…

<< Get Your Huntress Groove On: Pay What You Can  >>

The Huntress technology comes from a decade of studying and an official Initiation by the Quero shamans of Peru, which changed my life. Since then I have been teaching it to accelerate the success of the modern female entrepreneur. Your dreams are my dreams too – and they are powerful!

These are awesome times! And they get even more awesome when you take action on your dreams.

Stating your intentions out loud is hugely effective! Trust me. If I can do it you can do it, too. Need help? Schedule a free strategy session with me and get guided through this process.

Tell me, what is your ideal relationship? And what simple ceremony are you doing to make it a reality?

Do you wonder why you work so hard, spinning your wheels, yet not manifesting the level of success and the money flow you want? I get it because I’ve been there. Don’t make the same mistake many other entrepreneurs make!

Ask yourself:

What is the big thing you want to unveil to the world right now?

And what do you need to clear in yourself to make this happen?

You are ready to do whatever it takes to create the finanical freedom and fullfiment you desire. But sometimes I know it feels like the brighter you shine, the more crap you have to put up with. It’s like ALL of you is magnified all at once—both the light and the shadow.

You are processing so much energy right now. And like every living organism who takes in food/energy, you must release the digested bi-products (aka ‘crap’—yours and that of your clients).

But what happens if you don’t know how to ‘cut the crap’? The toxic energy builds up and then explodes…creating havoc in your body and your bank account!

The GOOD NEWS (you’re going to like this, promise):

For the sake of your spirit, your loved ones, and your clients you must schedule a ‘blow off the steam/ orgasmic sex/ or a good cry and breathe’ session:

• Frequency: 3 times a week.
• Location: where no one can hear you—the car, the beach. (I have a soundproof office in San Francisco, for this reason.)

When you unleash the orgasmic potency in your body that’s when you’ll have a Bank Orgasm!

Because that’s what the universe is—pure unpackaged orgasmic impulse—creating itself into a myriad of babies, businesses and bestsellers. It’s all there waiting for you if you want it.

Are you ready to unveil something bigger than ever before, something epic? Here is how YOU can become an innovator that harnesses and directs this gold energy into realization of your dreams, and GOLD in your bank account. If you don’t, you may eventually find yourself giving up and looking for a ‘real job.’

Greetings!

Do you ever say YES to people or projects that in the long term drain your energy?
