GURRRRL! I'm so excited to chat with you again. This month has been a busy one!!!
I ran a kick ass masterclass called "WTF is Feng Shui" that I'm STILL getting messages about it!!!! (The videos will be deleted from the Masterclass group soon, but they are already in THE VAULT for those of you who are in it - or want to be). We also have been running around getting last minute things for my daughters Grad in June, my son was in the hospital for a freak accident at work (he's on the mend!) and I have completed 31 more days of walks to my perch, trainings, journalling and self-discovery. This 111 day quest of mine is turning out to be something so transformative and June is gonna be the best month ever!!!
I can't wait to tell you all the things. Grab a seat, your cup and your sense of humour. It's time for coffee!!!
COFFEE TALK
One of the coolest things I've noticed since I started my very first business online was the close friendships that I've gained in the process. Seriously. It is the BEST part of my day to be able to connect and chat with you about your deepest desires, fears and blocks. I'm honoured to be a part of your journey and your metamorphosis ... and even more grateful that you are part of mine.
Now, I'm kinda cheeky, I swear and I hate the news (like hate it ... I can't stand the sound of it in the background even). What I love though, are deep conversations that challenge me, change me and also make me laugh. THIS ... is what I strive to achieve in this newsletter and specifically in this section of it. I want you to hear my voice in my words and to experience a conversation with me ... come crawl around in my brain for a bit.
This month I've been really diving into the concept of RESISTANCE. It's a concept that my coach Jana talks about a lot because on the way to our big dreams, we spend most of our time here.
While initially I was relating this concept to the physical act of resisting something (procrastinating) ... this month I understood it on a whole new level. I realized that you can actually FEEL resistance in your body if you're paying attention to it.
Now ... if you want to manifest something ... the FEELING in your body is the most important. You want to feel the ease and flow. You want to step into the person you will be once you have the thing. You practice experiencing it before you even get it.
When you release the resistance you can attract what you desire.
1) In this very moment consider ... what is it that you have been wanting to achieve, but you haven't been able to? Maybe you are "thinking" you want to forgive someone ... wanting to lose weight ... get a new job ... take a risk ... make more money.
Do you feel that tenseness at all? The stress and pressure in your body? Frustration or fear?
2) BREATHE. Deep inhale for the count of 5. Hold for 5. Exhale for 5.
I also use visualization, meditation, journalling, walking and sitting by the water ... but breathing is AMAZING for helping you move resistance. Lemme know how it goes!
p.s. thanks for this Kelly Dunlap! I love it.
FENG SHUI TIP OF THE MONTH
This month I've had more women sending me messages and pictures and videos of their spaces than ever before. It's been SO COOL to see and hear about everything that has shifted for you as a result of just simply decluttering and then redesigning your spaces! One thing that I spoke about in the masterclass was in response to a question about living with someone who isn't exactly as enthusiastic about your feng shui'ing as you are.
After years of working with clients and even in my own house, what I can say is that when you remove the clutter in your space (aka stuck energy and undone tasks) it makes EVERYONE in the space feel better. When they feel better and love the space ... they have more energy and will often begin to tackle other areas all on their own without you having to say a word.
It's like magic. ;)
WHAT (or who) INSPIRES ME:
If you've been listening to Leigh Kubin and I on the HAPPY HALF HOUR PODCAST you'll note that we often will refer to Abraham Hicks. If you're wanting a quick injection of manifestation inspo (and you're all caught up on our podcast content) Abraham is a really great second option. ;)
What I love is that when I need a good kick in the ass to get me out of the negative thoughts and propelled forward again ... this is where I go.
Now I will say this: I do NOT suggest that you avoid feeling crappy. We are HUMAN and sometimes crappy exists. We have to feel it in order to heal it as they say. But here is the difference ... we must feel it WITHOUT ADDING FUEL TO THE THOUGHTS.
The thoughts and stories we tell ourselves are what fuck us up.
So ... feel the feelings if you must while intentionally reaching for the thoughts that make us feel better. Focus on what's POSSIBLE vs what WAS and what IS.
COOL SHIT:
I try not to put too much cooking stuff in here cause let's face it ... my business isn't about food BUT I couldn't help it. These SPICE TAILOR Indian Sauce kits are so tasty. No artificial colourings flavourings or preservatives and they are the BEST for those days when you have little time.
I get these at Sobeys but you can order them on Amazon too!
WHAT'S COMIN UP?
One of the things that I've been so successful at is helping women manifest money ... hundreds of dollars to millions of dollars and everything in between.
Whats the process?
- set goals
- locate the office and desk positions
- locate all of the areas designed for wealth (there is more than one)
- locate all of the areas that we need to pull together to support the vision.
- get as creative as we can to create CUSTOM cures for any vision they want.
I'm teaching you all of this and so much more in FFS MOVE YOUR DESK!
Feng Shui for Entrepreneurs. It's literally EVERY DANG THING you would need to know about designing your space for killer results in your business.
INTENTIONAL: helpful people/travel
The month of May in Intentional focused on Creativity and Children gua of our homes!!!! I had used my space with the intention to bring my kids closer together. What happened????
- My kids stopped bugging each other and actually it happened within an hour of the move.
- both of my kids had some pretty significant life events happen when allowed them to shift what needed to be shifted in order to get back on their intended track
HERE'S ANOTHER SUCCESS STORY FROM THE GROUP:
"Just wanted give an update on my month, we don’t have any children at home anymore so I was at a loss for this month and what to create, but I cleaned and organized and yes it took me till May 23 to get my fridge cleaned but I did it and as I reflect on this past month I have noticed that I have created 4 brand new clients and had 5 clients come back that I haven’t seen in a number of years! So yahoo for creating fabulousness in my business. "
THIS month we are focusing on the HELPFUL PEOPLE/TRAVEL gua. This one is SOOOOOOO fun because whether you need referrals in your business, help from the Universe/God/Angels, you want to manifest a trip or just need more helpful people and less asshats in your life .... THIS AREA WILL DO IT!!!! Already some of the ladies have been seeing such crazy huge changes from working in this area. I cant wait to see what else happens!!!
You can join us for the full 9 months and uplevel your whole life or you can pick and choose which areas of your life you are interested in working on!! The full option is here. You can reply to this email if you'd like a custom link for specific areas!!

THE NEXT LEVEL
THE NEXT LEVEL ... I freakin LOVE this container. I have designed it for the woman who wants to raise herself to the next level. She wants to feel better, think differently, challenge herself her thoughts and her emotional intelligence. She wants to have some personal coaching (by moi ... ) but isn't quite sure she is ready to invest a lot of time nor money just yet.
IF THIS IS YOU, THIS IS PERFECT!!!
- one training per month (accessed in a group and in an app)
- Access to The Power of You
- meditations
- journal prompts
- ten (30 min) zoom power coaching spots with me, first come first serve. We will work through whatever blocks you have, do intuitive readings or chat about business!
Three spots left at this current price and then it goes up!!!
I'm ready for THE NEXT LEVEL
TASTY SHIT!
It's another TikTok recipe and this time it's a Taco Bell knockoff. While initially I thought this would be a lot of work for nothing, they were tasty and SUPER fun to make actually. The whole family really liked them which is also a bonus - normally we need a make-your-own bar set up because everyone likes something different!
CRUNCHWRAP EXTREME
https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMNJLMHFv/?k=1
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 (1.25-ounce) package taco seasoning
- 4 (12-inch) flour tortillas
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup nacho cheese
- 4 tostada shells
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 1 Roma tomato, diced
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
DIRECTIONS
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add ground beef and cook until beef has browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; stir in taco seasoning. Drain excess fat; set aside.
- Working one at a time, place nacho cheese in the centre of a large tortilla.
- Top with ground beef mixture and then lay a tostado on top.
- Spread a thin layer of sour cream on the tostada shell; top with lettuce, tomato and cheese.
- Lay a small flour torilla on top of all of this.
- Fold the edges of the large tortilla up and over the center. Continue to work your way around the tortilla, folding as tight as possible.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet. Place wrap seam-side down and cook until the underside is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook wrap on the other side, about 1-2 minutes longer.
Serve immediately - if you don't it gets soggy and there's no such thing as a soggy crunchy wrap.
Our Tips n Tweaks:
- we didn't heat the nacho cheese more the tortillas. WHYYYYYYY do more work than you have to???? That just seems silly.
- many of these videos tell you to buy large flour tortillas and lay the first on the bottom and then lay another one down and cut it to be the same size as the tostada. That seemed like a waste of time effort and tortilla. We used large tortillas for the bottom ... and small flour tortillas for the top. VOILA no cutting and waste needed!
- This is like medical shit ... DO NOT GOOGLE. Do yourself a favour and read OUR instructions and watch the tiktok video. Don't go farther than that. We know what to do but google this recipe and it literally makes ZERO sense.
Good luck! Let me know if you try it!
