Who did you have to be as a kid to receive the love or approval of mom and dad? Perfect? Quiet? A pleaser? Self reliant? This right here is one of the biggest shifts I see people have in coaching or at live events The roles we took on as a kid become the subconscious identity as an adult For me I adopted a role of “pleaser” due to having a controlling hard to please step mom If I could ease tension I could feel “safe” My dad had that pattern too and modeled it by not challenging or being assertive in his relationship For me to break this pattern I had to become “BAD” to the old role To be “good” meant to abandon myself, to make others happy, etc BAD was being selfish, expressing my emotions, setting boundaries, etc For me to create this SHIFT… I had to lean into tension and express the real me I had to take on the values of "authenticity" and “vulnerability” I had to catch my desire to ease other people's tension and let them sit with it knowing it is theirs not mine to manage This tension became the initiation into a new me Years ago as I started this shift I had to reconnect to certain friends to express how I felt I had to be honest moving forward over wanting approval It resulted in self respect, self acceptance and feeling safe inside of my own body And the crazy thing… as a result others respected me as a reflection I was able to go deeper with people and felt more connected to myself and THEM Yes some people fell out of my life as a result of this authenticity… and in their place other relationships and friendships formed It's all a part of the process :) What role are you letting go of or becoming aware of? What would be a way of leaning into the tension of breaking that pattern? And who would you be without that pattern? Remember, it's a pattern… NOT you :) Talk to you soon, Aaron (you’re the SOUL not the ROLE) Doughty

Not just what’s happening on the surface, but the deeper loops you seem to keep running. The moments where you think 'Why does this keep happening?' or 'Why do I always end up back here?' Sometimes we get so used to our struggles that they start to feel like part of who we are. But what if they’re not? What if they’re just patterns - patterns that can be understood, unraveled, and rewritten? Take a moment. What’s showing up for you right now? What keeps repeating? Let’s start there.

I just saw @Jessie Goodwin's post here about about New Year COMMITMENTS, not just "resolutions." I think we all know NYE resolutions have a lot of hype and a lack of follow through. I've also been learning to lean into my own intuition and instinct more for choosing which commitments to make. I also know that 2025 is calling me to really go ALL IN with growing my community and sharing my vision with as many entrepreneurs as possible. My gut, intuition, and heart are all telling me the same thing. Intuition + Commitment + Manifestation = UNSTOPPABLE I'd also like to hear from other members! What is your intuition leading you to commit to this year? And also... do you believe in attracting and manifesting the goals you are committing to?

This is something that is super important and ties into an experience that people seem to notice on their spiritual paths as well. Coming from personal experience as well, I think this is highly understated. When you do shadow work you will create a push/pull energy. The same type of energy you produce when you work on heart and mind coherence in spiritual practices. As you build upon your emotional intelligence and start to express your emotions firstly, you won't be able to express properly and secondly you will be expressing the unexpressed. People will start seeing new colours of your being and that will either push them away or pull them closer. Same as with spirituality, you will pull the same frequency towards you and push others away. But what's important is that in order to fully experience life we need to feel and in order to feel you have to build emotional intelligence. In order to be fully spiritual we need to be able to experience because if we cannot experience we cannot accept the events of abundance, peace and contentment. So beautiful people, do the shadow work before you go deep into spirituality. Otherwise you will not be ready for what creation has in store for you. Let us know in the comments how you like to approach shadow work! 🙏🏻
