Today is the day!!!! 'Writing The Damn Book' is out and published! I'm thrilled to have hit publish on this third book. It took a lot longer than I had planned but honestly, it's because I faffed about for the past month and didn't do the detail work. If you read my last email you'll know that managing a project was the last thing I wanted to do without energy. But suddenly the clouds parted and voila! The book was magically done. This is a shorter read than my other books but it's the book I wish I'd had before I wrote them. It's the book I wish I had before I wasted years writing the 15 books I worked on before publishing my first. Why? Because these are the un-google-ables to being a non-fiction author. How to bring your soul out onto the pages while over-coming the 'who am I to's... And I mixed in a few truly valuable how to's that I've shared only with my private clients up until now. The Kindle Version of this book will be free for 3 days only - WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY & FRIDAY. After that it's $4.99. The print book is currently set at $9.99. It will probably stay there for the time being. So if you're moved to write, thinking about writing, have a friend who needs to write you can... ***Download the free Kindle version for yourself (feel free to buy a hard copy too - but no pressure). ***OR/AND Send the free Kindle version to friends as a gift on Amazon. Which is freaking awesome because then you look generous and more people will be out changing the world with their books. ***And for the truly generous, bulk discounts are available on 5 or more print copies so if anyone wants that, I will give you a special site and code so just let me know Here is the link to the kindle book http://amzn.to/2agAqom Here is the link to the paperback book http://amzn.to/2ayp1wk Oh AND I'm also putting up my first book Unconventional Wisdom for FREE Wednesday, Thursday and Friday so feel free to grab a copy or send it as a gift as well.

Today is a big day of giving and receiving for me.
While my book is being released into the world lots of people are watching my activity. In addition to getting congratulations from around the world, I've had quite a few people send tips and helpful suggestions on getting the word out even more. And perhaps tomorrow I'll implement some of them, today I'm just planning on setting back and letting the flow take me and my book where it needs to go. Because I'm giving it with my whole heart - hopeful that it will inspire one person to get their message out into the world and change it massively. That's the highest and best vision of this work - to give someone permission and the tools to craft a message so powerful that one more person is brought to their knees, never the same, always altered. And I plan on opening my heart WIDE because I also know that this is a big day to receive the enthusiasm and the love. To receive the reviews and the shares. To receive all the energy swirling around me, my books, my business. To receive the positive and negative. To be vulnerable enough to really FEEL it all coming into my world. So I'm busy thanking people today. And I'm off to register my son in 10th grade and take him to the Doctor later with lunch somewhere in the middle with him - probably something greasy and soulful. Off to meditate and rest so that I am a better vessel. How fast can the Universe work?
Yesterday I finally emerged from behind the veil after a very long recalibration. I told you I could feel the energy moving again. And then last night one of the partners of a huge multi-national self-development company messaged me and we hopped on the phone to talk about licensing 'Writing The Damn Book' with them, whereby they would create a special digital version with some bonuses and sell on their platform. Just like that the contract is being prepared as we speak. It looks like instant response from the Universe right? Wrong. See, the crockpot that had a dream in it was sitting there simmering for years. The specific call in where I stated it with power was 2 years ago - that I was to become a published author with this particular company in whatever capacity that looked like. And then I set it aside and kept going on with what I was doing. I connected with this gentleman from time to time, having lunch with him or generally chatting once in a while. No expectations. Yesterday, the cooking was done, and the Universe said - okay, NOW it's time. Not on my timeline. But on all the timelines that needed to converge to make this possible. Nothing happens before you are truly ready... So in the meantime just continue on and allow things to cook in the background. Have your felt like your energy is low?
I've got a confession - I've been in complete shut down. Sure I've been sending out the emails. And I've been coaching my clients. But mostly I've been sitting at my desk doing nothing. Well, reading fiction books and doing the bare bare minimum. I've ignored my communities. I've barely been posting on Facebook. I've just been sitting... Marinating... For a while I wondered if I was depressed. But I didn't feel depressed. I wondered if it was physical, and yes it was a little bit. But vitamins and diet helped me feel less tired but no more motivated. I didn't even feel enough to judge myself for all my outer failings. It was like all the juju had been sucked from the Universe and I was on hold. Here's why I ended up not really caring that the hold music was on repeat... Because many of my clients and friends were feeling the SAME FREAKING THING!!! Like suddenly someone hit the pause button on inspiration and movement. So I'm curious if you've felt it and I'm here to let you know that you're not alone. AND that it is starting to clear up. Last week I shared my MasterSoul Manifesto with you. That was the beginning of the restart of movement. But it felt different. Familiar and new at the same time. The curious thing was that going into the silence, I hadn't felt ready. I mean I was already in a place in my business where things were amazing and I knew my mission was to fundamentally change the conversation around intuition, energy and spirituality in business, and it felt right, but I wasn't quite 'there' if you know what I'm talking about. Coming out of the silence, I feel like I've been recalibrated. Seriously. I feel like there's something fundamentally different with my vision and my spirit. Not refreshed or ready or on fire, just adjusted somehow on a vibrational even cellular level. In fact I feel as though the recalibrating was necessary for me to bring forward a whole new body of work into the world. And I'm watching as my clients are going through the same thing. That their big visions and their greatest work is no longer something they are striving towards but something they are BEING. This week is the first time I've sat down at my desk and really worked. I've been redoing my whole website and the messaging. I'm diving full body into the MasterSoul Movement. I even registered the hashtag #IamAMasterSoul lol. Starting next week I'm opening the doors on totally new ways for me to work with my clients. There is a MasterSoul Retreat (http://www.stacynelsonunlimited.com/mastersoul-gathering.html) coming in Fall and a year-long MasterSoul Circle (http://www.stacynelsonunlimited.com/mastersoul-circle.html) that focuses on 10xing our businesses by 10xing our energetics and a secret project called MasterSoul University that I'm putting the finishing touches on now. Bit by bit, the silence is passing, surrendering to the internal adjustments it brought along. The mana is returning to my world. So I know it's returning to yours as well. This is a gentle unveiling of old truths reworked into new understandings, a stripping away of all that you've outgrown and an unweilding sense that compromise is no longer an option. For each of us to claim our own Mastery and Purpose, it's time for us to stop mucking around in false insecurity and BE the change we're bringing into the world I Am A MasterSoul and so are you... Why do we downplay who we truly are? So we don't appear to be arrogant? So we don't make others feel bad? So that we fit in? Have you ever done this thing where someone is telling you about their terrible day, and even though yours was amazing, you downplay it, you commiserate, or you hold in the amazing awesomeness that just moments before was bursting out of you? Why? Why do we do that? Why do we paint ourselves a different color for the person in front of us? It's totally okay to honor where they are, to acknowledge their challenges and what's going on in their world. AND we can do that without justifying or downplaying or hiding our own successes, our own MASTERY. It's okay to claim your brilliance. #IamAMasterSoul Because sometimes in the middle of writing that next book, a little manifesto pops out...
I am a MasterSoul. And I recognize so many of you out there denying the truth of your own mastery. It doesn’t mean we are ascending to heaven. It doesn’t mean we can turn water into wine. It doesn’t mean we are so completely connected to Source that our physical lives are merely a blip of consciousness. It doesn’t mean we are hermits on a hill. It means that we understand. It means that we KNOW. All of you empaths that can feel emotions around you and can translate and transmute energy, you are MasterSouls. All of you healers that make others feel better just by being in your presence, you are MasterSouls. All of you who can hear the voices or guides and channel their words and energy, you are MasterSouls. All of you who have an innate trust in your intuition and turn left instead of right for no other reason than because you heard the nudge, you are MasterSouls. All of you who are being called to fundamentally change the world in positive collective ways, you are MasterSouls. And it’s time we stop hiding. And we do that by shining, by creating the reality our hearts crave. We do that by succeeding in the world in bigger and better ways. We do that by using our God-given talents and knowing to create the businesses and lives that will be the vehicles for change. This is our time. We are MasterSouls. We are here to expand as much as we can and not change the world with empty words and shallow missions, but by being the very things we are craving to see all around us. My purpose is to make energy, spirituality and magic the first thing we talk about in business, not an aside, not something we do but as a way of truly creating our true success. In order to do that, we need to come together as MasterSouls to fundamentally change the global conversation. This is our time to shine as we have always meant to. Claim it here in the comments... 'I Am a MasterSoul" Periods of deep hibernation, times when action, ANY action feels like more effort than we have within us. Do you know those times?
I go through it often, at times when I'm undergoing huge expansion, at times when I'm growing into a whole new being. It's easy to think of these times as depressing. It's easy to feel less-than because action is so freaking hard. It's easy to fight yourself, demean yourself. It's also easy to discount it as 'just a phase' It's also easy to minimize and deem it as 'nothing' It's also easy to pretend it's not really happening and keep on keeping on. It can even be easy to accept it. It can even be easy to have fun with it. It can even be easy to not care if it passes or not, to stay present with it and allow your entire system to fully shut down. Maybe it will go fast. Maybe it will be slower than fuck. And maybe, just maybe, you're in the process of rebirth...like the phoenix forever rising from the ashes to burn brightly and then fading so that you can burn again. Each time with a little more wisdom and grace. What does you jewelry or accessories or style say about your spiritual self?
I remember when I graduated 8th grade. We were required to wear white gowns that reached the floor. We essentially were going to look like a sea of virginal girls moving forward in the world. So, I HAD to go buy turquoise shoes, tucked demurely under the flowing skirt, for no other reason than I felt constrained by being the same as everyone else. As I get dressed every day now, I recognize that nod to individuality. I don't dress to be noticed, my clothes are all actually quite neutral, jeans are my norm. But I CANNOT choose the purse or jewelry that would match. I am compelled to find the exact piece that contrasts, that feels unexpected...that nod to my own sensibilities that no one else would naturally choose. I noticed that this morning as I slid on my favorite navy blue top, that in a sea of blue jewelry, sapphires and lapis among others, I paired it with my orange coral, followed closely by my citrine mala... I could feel how boring the matching choices felt for me and how in alignment the contrast felt - to purposely choose that little 'pop'. It's a gentle battle against conventional expression. It's not big and bold 'look at me' And it's always just a bit unexpected, that peek of turquoise in a sea of white. That little bit of subtle rebellion that powers my soul. These are messages that our subconscious landscape leaks into the physical world. And I believe these messages have a way of informing us how we feel, what we want to tell others, what our inner selves want US to know. And conversely, how we can elevate that inner world, by adding color or deleting it, by brushing on a bit of lip gloss or by adding a little gel to our hair. That dance between the inner and outer world is a beautiful one, one that I don't always focus on as I work on that inner world in a disproportionate way. So today I'm happy noticing that even when I don't know it, I still march in opposition to normalcy...how is your inner world leaking into your appearance? I've yet to know two people who approach creativity in the same way.
I've yet to know two of my own creations that were created in the same way. There's no ONE way to create. There's no magic bean you can swallow that will suddenly grow into the perfect creation...which is why I'm completely addicted to the process. Each person takes a different path, each slightly divergent from the other. I've been asked to do my writing support work remotely. Maybe someday, but I'm not ready to do that fully now. Starting face-to-face, playing with the energy of what you're writing and molding it into a structure is too much fun for me - which is why I do book retreats, so we can get messy, and strategic and emotional and all of it and have big paper and ideas, to allow us to really download where we are going. Each person and each creation has its own way of manifesting into the world - I like doing the detective work to find it... And yes, when doing a VIP retreat, the timing is always wrong for some people. The dates are always in conflict with someone. The amount of time or travel is never convenient. But I can FEEL that one person sitting here hovering, salivating at the thought of three full days of wrapping themselves up in their creation. So it's going to take the right intuitive decision maker - it's going to take someone SO committed to bringing their message into the world that they will do what it takes, without over-thinking or over-analyzing. In just under 2 weeks, we work. In just under 2 weeks, we find the way YOU create and the way your CREATION wants to be expressed and we do it. The question isn't are you ready. Because let's face it, there are always convenient reasons why you're not. The question is - why the hell not? Are you willing to dive in and play? Can you feel the energy in your body when you think about saying yes? Do you feel that moment of 'oh shit' in the background? That's how we know it's time to talk... Sometimes you forget that you are magical.
Sometimes you think your hustle is important. Sometimes you believe you are alone. Sometimes you feel the need to intellectualize your intuition. Sometimes you berate yourself for not being in flow. Sometimes you lose sight of the view by staring at your feet. Sometimes you forget that you are unlimited and powerful. Sometimes you forget why you're here. And sometimes, you remember. Sometimes you believe in your own Mastery. Sometimes you know, without a shadow of a doubt that heart always, always trumps hustle. Sometimes you allow the magic to pour through you. Sometimes you are overwhelmed by how beautiful your mission is. Sometimes you surrender to the flow. Sometimes you are surrounded by others who remind you of who you are and who you can BE. Are you ready for that now? http://www.stacynelsonunlimited.com/mastersoul-circle.html |
