What up, y'?

All?

This is Emily and I'm Lisa and we are the conscious collaboration.

Yes, we is.

Yes.

Long time no see.

Allegedly.

Allegedly.

Yes.

Supposedly.

Supposedly we are.

Yes.

Well, I'll tell you one thing.

I have spent the last two weeks going down our inbox and we have about a 30 people requesting to be guests.

So popular.

We are popular.

Yes.

I think that that whole like, you know, algorithm working in your favor pass a certain extent is true.

So for people that are starting podcasting, just keep on showing up like we do because.

Yeah, it works.

It does.

Three years later, almost four years later.

Omg.

Even on our four year anniversary in May.

Yeah, I know.

We need to have a party.

You know, the other helpful component is when you can't keep track of time, you just don't even realize it because what is time?

What is time?

Yeah.

So just make sure you like the person that you're podcasting with and record all of your conversations like we do.

Yeah.

And there you go.

Yeah.

How to do a podcast.

How to do a podcast.

Talk to your best.

Show up every week.

Press record.

That's the episode.

Make friends.

So, yeah, pretty good.

But I've been keeping in touch with a lot of the guests that we've had previously though, so if you've been on before, don't be concerned when I give you a call because I've been checking up on everyone.

Adrian I saw at the TV studio last week, she's been.

Yes, Sandy as well.

Yeah.

For a back.

Yes.

And

Lisa was absent being fancy last.

Last week.

Our, our typical recording day.

So what, what were you doing there?

Fancy, Fancy Pansy.

I am doing morning show segments about feng shui, which I'm really excited about because they invited me and I love to be invited and it's really exciting to me that people are talking about the environment as a way to improve your life and have that be more mainstream.

So.

And you know, I think 2019, when I started professionally working in feng shui, I had a little bit of hesitation around there being like, oh, is this going to be too woo of a topic?

I don't know if I ever even experienced any hesitation around feng shui.

So I love it.

I think it's great that it's become like, I don't know, it's trending again like it did in the 70s.

People are like, okay, what else can I do to improve my life?

Because there's so much noise going on in the world and my, my environment, that's one thing I can control besides my Mindset, my body.

I mean, our body is a vessel that we live in as well too.

But what else can.

What else is within our controls to help improve our lives?

And it's that environment component.

And so I'm going back, I'm returning to the studio next week, and the producers are the ones coming up with the topics, not me.

And they just happen to line up with all of my mission in working.

And that's, you know, I don't know if they're going through my content or not, but it makes it really super easy.

So we've been talking about how to create the spaces around us to align with who we're becoming, not with who we are right in this moment, but who we're becoming.

And I think that needs to be talked about more.

That's a piece of manifest.

That's.

That's the backbone, in my opinion, of manifestation.

Right, exactly.

Before it's there.

Yeah.

It's like, how can you create something, bring it from your dreams or the ethers or wherever this ethereal world is that you're envisioning something?

How can you bring that into your reality and lived experience when it's something maybe you've never lived before?

And when you can do that, things really do start to click.

I really believe that's, you know, I mean, that's happened for me and I've seen that happen for others too.

So I think it's great that we're now just like some of the concepts of mindset and, and yoga and body work and all of these things.

Putting them together, it's going to help make people's lives just that much more fun.

Yeah.

Well, why don't we make that the essence of our check in question today?

Yes, let's do that.

Okay.

Our check in question.

So let's see what is the.

Well, I kind of know what the energy is around right now.

We're in springtime.

But let's, let's dial it.

Let's keep it a little bit broader for people who might find this episode, any old season might not be right when it airs.

What's the energy around the collective when they receive this?

And what can they add to or manipulate within their environments to make their lives easier, more fun to make clearer directions.

Oh, that's interesting.

All right.

Two.

Two came out at once.

But I'm just paying attention to what they are.

Be interesting if this one card boils down what those two were.

Oh, I like it.

Oh.

So the energy around the collect collective right now is the approach of spring what we're in spring.

Technically cool, but that's exactly.

I didn't want to say that.

Springtime is associated in feng shui.

You know, how we work with an energy map.

That's the grid of the nine life areas.

And it's like a tic tac toe board.

And springtime is associated with wood energy.

It's also associated with family and your lineage.

And also it takes us shifting into abundance, which is everybody's favorite, you know, the money corner.

So it's that, you know, for moving around the clock of the bagua, it's like the 9 and 10 o', clock, 9, 10, 11 o' clock of the bagua.

And that's very like upward.

So, like, you see these trees here.

It's like reaching high.

It's upward, it's fast moving, it's very young.

So when in winter, we were very yin, very quiet, subtle.

We were also planting seeds that we want to see spring about right now.

And so you may be experiencing that, the energy of the approach of spring.

And there's still some receiving on the top line.

So there's still an openness there.

And that's kind of been the theme that I wanted to bring into 2026, is the art of receiving.

I've been doing a lot of work around navigating and surviving and thriving in grind culture because it really is like the worst.

It's the worst.

I mean, it definitely perpetuates the constant fight or flight.

Yeah, that is.

I mean, we need that sometimes, right?

We need to pulse it in and out as we're always talking about.

We need that skill of running from the tiger.

But it is.

It is quite literally killing us to just as a society to.

To be in that place all the time.

Yeah, you're making.

I mean, you're making me think about a lot of concepts here.

Living in the young energy all the time.

You know, if you relate it back to body work, training, sports even.

I mean, just in a lifestyle too.

I just watched this video blog or vlog or vlog or whatever they're called, where a girl was talking about every time she traveled to a European country from the US she would be in Europe for a couple days and immediately, like, shed a bunch of weight.

Yeah.

And she was studying, like, she kept doing it and she was like, why?

And she would bring the foods from Europe back to the US to try to recreate it here, and she couldn't.

It wasn't food, it was the body.

I think it's the nervous system.

It's Just, you know, I mean, and also way it literally.

I mean, it is the food, like.

Okay, it is the food too, that is important.

Let me not.

She's healthy like us.

The way that your body processes food is literally different depending on which part of the nervous system you're currently in.

And what do most of us do day after day after day but eat in that stress state, which is the worst possible state, you know, your, Your blood, your body is preparing is.

Is.

Is to.

To run from the tiger.

So digestion doesn't matter.

At that point, your blood is being shunted away from your digestive system and into those, you know, areas that would be more important in running from the tiger.

So if you're not actually running from the tiger and you're eating food, like your body is not even in a place to digest the food.

The parasympathetic nervous system.

We, you know, the little moniker is rest and digest.

Yeah.

And I think that, like, that really stuck with me.

And that's coming to mind me in this energy, you know, we need to feel anchored in and safe in a place to be able to grow and reach high as a tree.

If you think of us as a tree.

And I think like where you're saying too is.

Is an extension of this, is being in this fight or flight all the time.

We're not able to nurture our foundations as well, to be able to weather little bits of stressors or wind, you know, as.

As I'll say, like wind or seasons.

So all of these things are coming to mind.

To me, it's a story of earth above and lake below.

And I bet this will reinforce once I start reading the message of the I Ching, what we're talking about.

And then moving the future energy.

I'll just.

I'll just tip on is affluence.

Oh, I like that one.

Yeah.

It looks like a tattoo.

We called it a squid something.

Third eye, fire.

Squid.

I don't remember.

Squid.

Yeah.

It's interesting graphic.

So it's like, you know, the pyramid up high and a pyramid below, fire above and sky below.

A lot of duality.

Also like that eye kind of looks like if you look at it like it kind of has roots.

That's the squid.

So in a weird way, the approach of spring is everything that we're.

You know, it feels good.

Things are moving again.

Days are getting longer.

It feels like the times.

And, you know, I'll agree with that.

It feels like there's a bit of vitality in the air.

So we're working in function Feng shui with qi or life force energy.

And so anything like plants or even animals, people, anything that vitality, it really helps to nourish us.

When approaching good fortune.

Conscientious work pays great dividends.

So there is this clear road that's lying ahead.

That's the sense that we get when the seeds that have been lying dormant are ready to bloom.

So this is a time to be young energy, it's a time to be acting.

It's, you know, okay, pay attention.

If you can reflect back on all these little, little seeds that you've been planting and this isn't the time to like watch them.

We're asking to be integrated or to reacting or bring this into the physical world.

So yes, yeah, I mean, for example, like at the beginning of the year I invited in speaking opportunities and so now they're coming at me, a lot of them, I, I'm receiving them, I have to change the way I do things.

But I can't just sit there and watch them.

I have to touch them, I have to react to them.

This is the time to integrate them into your life.

So if those types of things have been happening in your life, it's a time, it's not going to last forever.

So you, you know, make those adjustments.

Preparing, in doing so, you're preparing for less fertile times because we know that's coming in the seasons of life that's coming, like I said, lots of receptivity at the top and some really strong inner and interpersonal energy there.

So relying on your inner work and also your collaborations and top line of guidance.

And sometimes it's caution says when a sage returns from seclusion to reenter the day to day world, good fortune falls on those they teach and help.

Seek objective advice from those you respect.

Particularly those who have not been caught up in your worldly affairs.

Their perceptions may provide you with fresh new perspective.

It's a season of new relationships.

In the bouncy of good time, new bonds are formed effortlessly.

Relationships born in spring can serve well to warm us in the following autumn and winter.

We still have a few seasons to come, but pay attention.

I like that it's talking about looking for guidance from someone that's not caught up in the minutia of what you're, of what you're doing, your daily life.

Like they don't have that.

They're not getting pulled into your story.

If you're feeling a little bit of that fight or flight or you're being chased by a tiger, they don't know that, but.

So that's a great resource to find, whether that be a score mentor if you're a business owner or someone in your field.

But look for that outside perspective.

That's top line guidance and that will really help you.

And then an open minded approach brings success.

Organizations that value performance over superficial qualities advance more quickly than those that take a complacency or clicky attitude.

Avoid prejudices against those of different backgrounds.

When laziness creeps into your personal life, radical action may be necessary to change this energy.

Shake it off.

Right?

Shake it on.

Yeah, I'm not even a swifty, but that was.

That was my jam.

When things are going very well, you face the danger of becoming too relaxed and careless.

Enjoy your successes, but remain mindful of how you achieve them.

There is a natural tendency to feel carefree once you are ahead.

But the great players keep challenging themselves until the end of the game.

Someone sneak in.

Sneak in a goal.

Yeah.

And then affluence.

Let's see.

Do I get everything there?

Yeah, I do.

And then affluence.

Your favorite image.

Hexagram 14.

Fire above and sky below.

If you're playing along at home, supreme success is in the future.

Remember this in Butthead.

Yes, I do.

Sorry.

Yeah, that was the.

That was the character that decided to

make an appearance as you were podcasting with the Gemini.

You never know who's going to be on the other end.

Could be Beavis and Buckhead.

Oh, no, one of my personalities was Beavis.

Oh, yeah.

Beavis was that one.

Yeah.

So right around the corner, Supreme Success.

And with this great power and abundance that you're going to be experiencing.

Be careful.

Along with any accumulation of wealth or influence can come an increase of pride or arrogance.

Fight this tendency if you want your good fortune to continue.

Stay attentive enough to manage your affairs well.

And remember that while prosperity beats the alternative, it is only one element of a very satisfying life.

So lasting prosperity is one that honors the highest values and furthers the collective good.

I feel good about that.

I mean,

bam.

Yeah.

I think this is great because the fire horse energy wasn't feeling very fire horsey.

And I think really like with the equinox and spring and you know, I don't know where we're out of.

Mercury retrograde now we're out of.

Yeah, yeah.

A few days ago.

So good.

Yeah.

So being mindful of the shadow period.

Yes.

But yeah, Mercury in retrograde.

That doesn't scare us anymore, right?

It doesn't.

It doesn't scare me.

But it can't it can.

I mean, it can just make things cloudier.

And, you know, if.

If you don't, especially if you're not aware of the energy and especially, I feel like, mixed with Fire Horse energy, and you're like, well, I'm Fire Horse in, but I'm also like, yes.

Like, did I black out?

Like, what's going on?

So I think.

I think it definitely added a.

A flavor to the energy.

That was interesting.

Yeah, I agree.

I had to do a lot of contracts during.

During Mercury in retrograde and was a little hesitant of that.

And you have to be careful about communications when you have a lot of projects going on.

And those are intentional about it.

Yeah, those are the things that keep me up at night, especially during Mercury and retrograde, because I like to be like, you know, fast communicator.

And it's really important to remember not everyone can read your mind.

Seems to be very explicit in what you're talking about.

You know, when.

One good example of how to approach that is as I prepare for these TV segments, is like the backing up the concept with visuals to reinforce.

So as we're exiting the shadow period of Mercury in retrograde, take those with you just to prepare for the next one.

Although I think it should be a while.

I guess we're like, all in planetary alignment right now.

Yeah, we'll take it.

And I think what we were talking about a few episodes back that we noticed from Steve and a couple other Terror Energy readers that we've been listening to is that May is supposed to be just bonkers.

Oh, birthday month.

Let's go.

It's gonna be bonkers for Gemini.

That's right.

Well, for everybody.

So that's when real, significant change is going to happen.

And I'm ready for it.

That's probably aligned with Uranus and Gemini is what that's about.

Oh, what is that energy?

That's a big one.

Big, big change.

Big Gemini style change.

So it can feel chaotic but intelligent right at home.

Right at home.

Yeah.

It's not.

I mean, you know, unless, like, what is your perspective on change?

Do you have a negative perspective or a fear of change?

If.

If so, then you probably ought to take the month of April to kind of get that sorted out, because it's coming.

Yeah, come in.

And it's coming.

So get your foundations in order.

Yes.

So what do you think about as we close out this energy check in and we hit on a bunch of, you know, alignment topics in terms of working with your space and your mindset and your body what are some takeaways, Takeaways or small changes that we can suggest based on that reading?

Well, I think that what I took from it, especially based on what we were talking about in the beginning in relation to your environment, is to create an environment that promotes that relaxation, that parasympathetic nervous system response so that you are, you know, in a place where you can then fertilize the.

You know, all the newness and where you can recover and restore and recharge so that you.

You have the energy and the vitality to navigate all the.

All the newness and all the upcoming change and chaos.

Yeah.

With ease and grace.

Yeah, I think that's really perfect.

You know, add to that, think about.

Have a little small reflection on what seeds you might have planted earlier in this year, and where are you seeing these indications of that showing up?

So you know what?

You need to be nurturing.

And I think that we get so distracted that I think a lot of us forget, like, oh, this is exactly what I planted.

And it's showing up because you're so caught up in the doing of things that you might not even notice that's happening.

So I would pay attention to that.

And also, I think, you know, in this energy, no matter when you find this episode, but in this energy, take a scan of your environment and look for areas around you that feel stuck or stagnant or something that you can't even look at, that you need to ignore, and then do what you can to make it more inviting.

Take out your garbage.

Remember that episode?

I'm obsessed with taking out my garbage.

My kids are, too.

But, yeah, start there, you know, Certainly.

Yeah.

Oh, that was a good memory.

All right.

That's all I have to say about that.

Things that we've said today.

All right.

Yes.

All right, everybody, thank you so much for joining us.

I hope that you found that reading, that it spoke to you and was helpful to you and that you come back and share with us inside of the Conscious Collaboration Collective, our closed and private Facebook group, what you're experiencing in your space, your environment related to that reading.

Because we might be able to.

To work with you on.

We'll collaborate with you on it.

All right, guys.

Bye, guys.
