0:58

Y'all, we made

0:58

it, it is the last week of

1:01

March. This is the fifth episode

1:01

of self worth in March. So big

1:07

month, five episodes, we've been

1:07

talking about being back in our

1:11

bodies, there's been some juicy

1:11

content going on. I've been

1:16

listening to back in my body by

1:16

Maggie Rogers regularly singing

1:20

it in my vehicle and in my house

1:20

and dancing to it. And I'm

1:25

feeling good. Honestly, already,

1:25

as I've written this content,

1:30

just over the last week, I have

1:30

felt so many shifts, so many

1:38

shifts. It's helping me remember

1:38

what's truly important. And

1:44

birthing this content has been a

1:44

little bit of a challenge,

1:48

because sticking in our bodies,

1:48

and coming back into that flow

1:52

state is not easy. There's been

1:52

some stops and starts, but it's

1:57

caused me or it's pushed me to

1:57

reflect so deeply, so deeply,

2:04

and to also reach out to my

2:04

community when I have had

2:09

questions. And over the last

2:09

week, I've been in a lot of

2:14

community with women. And I've

2:14

shared in an ad in a couple of

2:19

episodes this month, that I'm

2:19

opening back up my coaching. And

2:25

I'm going to do this, at least

2:25

for the next 90 day, 90 days,

2:29

that's what I'm committing to.

2:29

But it's really not coaching,

2:33

like life coaching, it's energy

2:33

healing. And I'm so excited

2:37

about this, because frequency is

2:37

my jam. And I feel like when I'm

2:44

back in my body, when I'm taking

2:44

good care of myself, I operate,

2:47

I'm just gonna say it, I operate

2:47

at such a high freakin

2:52

frequency. And in the work I've

2:52

done since I was a teenager, I

2:59

feel like I've learned so many

2:59

beautiful tools. And so I would

3:03

love to help you in your energy

3:03

journey. Because energy is

3:11

everything. Energy is life. And

3:11

when we operate at a high

3:14

frequency, we're unstoppable.

3:14

There's nothing we can do our

3:19

high, our our self worth

3:19

naturally comes into balance and

3:24

operates at a high level. So if

3:24

you're interested in working

3:28

with me one on one, there'll be

3:28

a link in the show notes, full

3:31

transparency, I'm charging $150

3:31

an hour. I do that because I've

3:37

given away this work so much for

3:37

free in the past. And when I do

3:40

that people don't take it

3:40

seriously. So if you sign up to

3:44

work with me, I want you to take

3:44

it seriously because this is a

3:48

serious work. It's a life

3:48

changing work. So if you want to

3:51

do that, you can sign up in the

3:51

show notes. All of that stuff

3:54

will be available. It's a

3:54

Calendly link, Bada bing, bada

3:57

boom, let's get connected if you

3:57

feel led, and if you don't feel

4:01

led, no worries. If however, you

4:01

are one of those people that's

4:04

listening to this and you're

4:04

having like a physical reaction,

4:07

whether that be fear or

4:07

nervousness or something that is

4:11

a sign that it's for you. So

4:11

just sign up don't take think

4:14

too hard about it, just go for

4:14

it. Alright, so today is episode

4:19

153. I'm calling it make it

4:19

sacred. Make it sacred conscious

4:24

consumption, and connection. So

4:24

far this month, we've talked

4:29

about routine, and nourishment

4:29

and distressing and intention

4:33

and boundaries and energy,

4:33

worship community oneness. And

4:40

today I want to talk to you

4:40

about conscious consumption and

4:43

connection. This concept

4:43

piggybacks off of our last

4:47

episode, Episode 152, where I

4:47

ended with talking about

4:52

oneness, beautiful, juicy

4:52

oneness. I'll repeat a little

4:57

bit about what I said on it last

4:57

week. And it's this. It is my

5:01

belief that we are all

5:01

extensions of God. I forget who

5:06

said it, but the quote is, if

5:06

God is the ocean, we are all a

5:10

cup. Worship, connection. They

5:10

lead to oneness. And the

5:17

greatest lie in the universe is

5:17

that we are separate. This

5:21

couldn't be further from the

5:21

truth. We are part of a sea of

5:25

humanity that was all created by

5:25

God with purpose. You have

5:31

purpose, my love. We are on this

5:31

earth school to understand what

5:35

separation feels like. But then

5:35

to also understand that this

5:39

separation is not real. It's

5:39

just a temporary experience we

5:44

are having so we can know the

5:44

real truth, which is that we are

5:47

all connected and part of God.

5:47

We are all one. And with this

5:53

oneness comes so much joy and

5:53

connection and truth and

5:59

purpose. And it also comes with

5:59

some responsibility. When we

6:04

hear the word responsibility, I

6:04

think we automatically think of

6:08

adding to our to do list, or

6:08

putting more on our proverbial

6:11

plates. And I know y'all are

6:11

busy. So I want to speak about

6:16

responsibility differently.

6:16

Right now, this oneness

6:20

responsibility is an

6:20

opportunity. If we choose to

6:25

partake in it, we will feel

6:25

healthier, and more connected,

6:30

and more at one and at peace

6:30

with each other. So it's not

6:35

doing more because we have to,

6:35

it's consciously doing because

6:39

we want to feel better and

6:39

vibrate at a higher frequency.

6:43

To understand the difference

6:43

there. When we want to feel

6:46

better, we have to change things

6:46

up. We cannot keep doing what

6:51

we've always done, and then

6:51

expect things to change. So

6:56

today, I want to challenge you

6:56

in two areas. I want to first

7:01

say, though, I am by no means

7:01

perfect in either of these

7:04

areas. So I'm working along,

7:04

right, I'm working right

7:09

alongside you. But I do try to

7:09

consciously make good choices as

7:16

often as possible. And y'all

7:16

when I'm back in my body, I make

7:19

those choices so easily. And so

7:19

quickly. The first area that I

7:25

want to talk about is in the

7:25

area of consumption. Boy, our

7:30

culture is a culture of

7:30

consumption, we are conditioned

7:34

from very, very early on in our

7:34

lives that more is better, more

7:40

and more, more, more, more,

7:40

more, more excess. And I want to

7:43

be counterculture here, I want

7:43

less but better. For instance, I

7:49

love skincare. If you've been

7:49

following me for any length of

7:52

time, you know this, I'm

7:52

admittedly a skincare junkie,

7:55

however, I'm buying less and

7:55

less and less these days, and

8:00

continuing to pay close

8:00

attention to the ingredients.

8:04

Like I want my skincare to be so

8:04

clean, I could drink it. I want

8:09

it to expire, because it's so

8:09

fresh, it's not shelf stable.

8:12

You know, not only does this

8:12

less better, create less

8:18

physical waste. But cleanliness

8:18

of products also decreases the

8:22

toxic load on our bodies, and

8:22

our environment. So this doesn't

8:28

have to be complicated. It's

8:28

just about bringing awareness to

8:33

the goods you're bringing into

8:33

your life, consciousness to

8:37

consumption, we have to go deep,

8:37

right? Another thing I think

8:42

about, for instance, is

8:42

haircare. What am I washing my

8:46

hair with that then flows down

8:46

my back and gets absorbed into

8:50

my skin and then flows into our

8:50

water system? What am I putting

8:55

on my son's hands that He then

8:55

puts in his mouth? Or law

8:59

laundry detergent? What am I

8:59

washing my clothes with? That I

9:03

then put on my body all day for

9:03

my skin to be absorbing? What

9:08

kind of food am I eating? And

9:08

were the people who farmed it

9:11

treated well, was the land

9:11

treated well is the food free of

9:15

pesticides and other chemicals

9:15

that are hard for our bodies to

9:18

detox from. These are sacred

9:18

decisions because they not only

9:23

affect us, they affect those

9:23

around us and our planet. They

9:27

affect that oneness. I've been

9:27

hinting at. We are all in a

9:33

symbiotic relationship. In

9:33

essence, the moment our soul

9:38

signed on to come to this

9:38

planet, we knew we were beholden

9:42

to more than ourselves. So I didn't know that I would

9:49

ever do this again. But I am

9:53

feeling so deeply LED. And it

9:53

was confirmed in my meditation

9:57

this morning that I meant to do

9:57

this and that is to open up some

10:00

hours each week for personal one

10:00

on one coaching. And coaching

10:04

really isn't the right word for

10:04

it. It's energy healing. That

10:08

was also confirmed in my

10:08

meditation this morning. energy

10:12

healing frequency healing, a

10:12

combination of Akashic record

10:16

access, past life access,

10:16

current life access, and

10:22

creating space for you to heal

10:22

yourself and increase the

10:30

frequency at which you operate

10:30

daily. This will have a ripple

10:34

effect on every area of your

10:34

life, every single area because

10:41

when we fix our energy, we're

10:41

fixing our self worth. And we

10:45

know that when we fix our self

10:45

worth and heal it, we operate in

10:49

a totally different way. So if

10:49

you're interested in doing this,

10:52

I will have a link in the show

10:52

notes. It will be a Calendly

10:55

link. I'm going to be totally

10:55

transparent I'm going to charge

10:59

$150 an hour. This is so that

10:59

you take this work seriously

11:04

because it is serious work. And

11:04

when I have given it away for

11:07

free in the past, people don't

11:07

take it seriously. So it's going

11:11

to be $150 an hour. And if you

11:11

choose to buy 10 hours, I'll

11:17

give you a $50 discount, all of

11:17

that will be in the Calendly

11:22

link. But if you feel led to

11:22

work with me one on one, I want

11:26

to open that up, I'm going to do

11:26

a few hours a week. So it'll be

11:29

a little bit limited. But if

11:29

you're feeling that Pang that

11:33

urge, like you need to do some

11:33

energy work, then I want you to

11:37

reach out to me. Also, if during

11:37

this ad, in my podcast, you're

11:43

feeling like a well of fear, or

11:43

a surge of energy that's like,

11:48

oh, I don't know if I want to do

11:48

that. I don't want to I don't

11:50

know if I want to do that this

11:50

is for you. So reach out to me,

11:54

if you have questions, email me

11:54

at hello at Jaclyn steele.com.

11:57

But otherwise, there'll be a

11:57

Calendly link in the show notes

12:00

that you can click on. And if

12:00

you have any questions just

12:04

reach out. If we are meant to

12:04

work together, I know that the

12:08

path will be paved, and it'll be

12:08

easy and flowy and beautiful.

12:13

And the most amazing things will

12:13

happen. So I look forward to

12:17

hearing from you and I look

12:17

forward to working with you.

12:24

And what about material goods?

12:24

What am I buying? And why is it

12:29

contributing to my life or just

12:29

one more thing I need to care

12:33

for? Consumption itself is not a

12:33

bad thing we need to consume to

12:39

survive. But consumption for

12:39

consumption sake is different.

12:44

It's wasteful. And if we go back

12:44

to the concept of oneness, when

12:49

we create waste for ourselves,

12:49

we also create waste for others.

12:54

When we create balance for

12:54

ourselves, we also create

12:58

balance. For others, we are

12:58

responsible for one another. But

13:03

again, this isn't something that

13:03

needs to be heavy, it can be a

13:07

joyful thing, because what we

13:07

put out will also come back to

13:12

us. Does that make sense? If you

13:12

operate at a high frequency, you

13:17

are going to attract that high

13:17

frequency back in return. As a

13:23

byproduct, you will also repel

13:23

lower frequencies that don't

13:27

contribute to your life. No one

13:27

is perfect. And I'm certainly

13:32

not. I still order from Amazon

13:32

and watch the cardboard boxes

13:36

collect and then feel horrified

13:36

by how wasteful it is. So I get

13:40

it firsthand. And I'm trying to

13:40

do better. Trying to not hit the

13:45

buy now button. But instead like

13:45

add to my cart over the course

13:49

of a week or something and have

13:49

it all shipped at once. I also

13:52

think though, we can bring some

13:52

soul into this consumption

13:56

experience because I don't think

13:56

we're going to avoid it

13:59

altogether. Right? We can slow

13:59

down before we hit that buy

14:03

button and take stock. ask

14:03

ourselves questions like, do I

14:08

really need this? Is this going

14:08

to make my life easier? Or bring

14:13

me lasting joy? And if not, is

14:13

it really necessary? Buying

14:19

stuff is fun, and it can be

14:19

addicting? Just listen to the

14:23

first episode of this podcast,

14:23

but 152 episodes ago, and you'll

14:28

know I had a habit a while back

14:28

that I needed to break. But as I

14:33

grow and expand, I find myself

14:33

asking more and more. Do I

14:37

really need this? Will this make

14:37

my life easier or bring me

14:41

lasting joy? Again, I'm less but

14:41

better kind of gal. I have a

14:47

pink BKR bottle next to me, that

14:47

costs about $50 to buy, which is

14:53

not cheap. But I've had it for

14:53

six years now. And I still use

14:57

it regularly. I'm feeling

14:57

similarly with clothing less,

15:02

but better. What's sustainable,

15:02

what's made from organic cotton,

15:07

what feels good to wear and will

15:07

wash well so I can wear it over

15:10

and over. Right now I'm wearing

15:10

a sweater from pact. And they

15:16

use organic cotton that's

15:16

sourced sustainably and it

15:20

washes well and were super well.

15:20

So I'll have this sweater for

15:24

years. Look, I know society

15:24

tells us to buy more and more

15:28

and more. And then we'll feel

15:28

cool feel like we're fitting in.

15:33

But I think it's cool to love

15:33

what you already have. And when

15:38

you need to upgrade your closet

15:38

to do so in a way that is

15:42

conscious but aware. fast

15:42

fashion is for the birds. The

15:48

clothing falls apart after a few

15:48

uses and it's not good for our

15:51

skin or for our environment. It

15:51

also doesn't feel good to wear

15:57

again I'm not judging because

15:57

I've actively participated in

16:00

all these systems. But as I

16:00

become more conscious, I want

16:04

less and less, because my

16:04

satisfaction comes from the

16:07

inside, not the outside, my self

16:07

worth comes from the inside, not

16:14

from what I own, or what I wear.

16:14

I also really enjoy being

16:19

responsible with my money.

16:19

Again, this doesn't mean I don't

16:23

treat myself, but I treat myself

16:23

in ways that enhance my life.

16:28

Instead of putting me into debt,

16:28

I played that game for so long.

16:33

So if you're there, I have such

16:33

compassion for you. But now I

16:37

feel like I'm addicted to having

16:37

a zero balance on my personal

16:40

credit card feels so good to

16:40

have that kind of freedom, to

16:45

not feel beholden to paying off

16:45

debt every month. And as a side

16:50

note, if you're a business

16:50

owner, and you heard what I just

16:53

said, and you're like, Okay, I

16:53

have a zero balance on my

16:56

business credit card. I also get

16:56

that because I don't have a zero

16:59

balance on my credit on my

16:59

business credit card. Sometimes

17:03

we have to pay for things in

17:03

advance before they come back to

17:06

us. So I totally get that. And I

17:06

have to pay for this podcast and

17:11

its production shout out to my

17:11

awesome podcast, producer,

17:14

Terry, and all of the things

17:14

that go along with putting a

17:16

podcast out that cost real

17:16

physical money. Anyway, you get

17:21

the idea. Bringing consciousness

17:21

to our consumption allows us to

17:25

feel more connected, and

17:25

grounded in that oneness. I

17:29

already touched on this, but I

17:29

think it's worth going deeper

17:32

here. And that is that being

17:32

conscious about our consumption,

17:36

and the products we use and what

17:36

we have in our homes and how it

17:39

affects our bodies in the world

17:39

around us in our communities.

17:43

Fosters connection. And like I

17:43

mentioned in last week's

17:47

episode, we were built for

17:47

connection, we were built to

17:53

work together and have a

17:53

symbiotic relationship with one

17:56

another. Just look at nature.

17:56

It's the best example when it's

18:01

unobstructed, crops grow and

18:01

die. And there remains feed the

18:06

animals in the area. And then

18:06

the poop from those animals and

18:09

creatures fertilizes the soil,

18:09

and so on and so forth. So

18:13

there's this beautiful circular

18:13

harmony. Nature creates perfect

18:18

balance if we live close to

18:18

nature, and by that I mean in

18:23

harmony with nature, our

18:23

physical bodies and our Earth

18:26

will naturally come back into

18:26

balance. Did you know that

18:32

simply standing on the earth

18:32

barefoot decreases inflammation

18:36

in your body. And inflammation

18:36

is the precursor to all the

18:40

stuff that can go haywire in the

18:40

body. Just standing on the earth

18:45

barefoot. Watch the documentary

18:45

The earthing movie, it's mind

18:50

blowing, we have all we need to

18:50

heal within and around us. Yet

18:56

we keep searching outside of

18:56

ourselves and are hurting each

18:59

other and our beautiful planet

18:59

in the process of wanting to

19:03

feel better, and we just don't

19:03

need to do it. I'm not pointing

19:07

fingers at all. We've all

19:07

participated in this system. But

19:13

we can choose not to actively

19:13

participate anymore. We can make

19:17

better choices every single day,

19:17

choices that lead to connection

19:21

that lead to healthier bodies

19:21

and lives and a healthier planet

19:25

for us. And for those that are

19:25

coming up below us. So as we

19:31

wrap up the month of March and

19:31

our theme back in our bodies, I

19:34

want to encourage you, you have

19:34

the power to thrive in your

19:37

body. And to thrive in your

19:37

life. You do and it's up to you.

19:43

Each little choice adds up. And

19:43

if you stumble, no worries,

19:47

you're in great company, but

19:47

choose to pick yourself up and

19:51

try again. And like I mentioned

19:51

at the beginning of this

19:54

episode, if you're wanting a

19:54

little extra help,

19:59

encouragement, love healing. If

19:59

you feel led, sign up for an

20:05

energy healing session with me.

20:05

That link will be in the show

20:08

notes. And if you are feeling

20:08

like you need some soul

20:12

adjusting, then let's do an

20:12

Akashic reading. That link will

20:15

also be in the show notes. I've

20:15

been doing Akashic readings for

20:20

a couple of years now. And they

20:20

are so powerful. I did several

20:24

episodes on what those are. But

20:24

if you feel led to do that,

20:30

let's do it. It'll be so fun.

20:30

All right. To wrap up today's

20:34

episode. I just want to say my

20:34

newsletter the scoop is back

20:39

20:42
