Juliana Spicoluk:

Soon as you wake up and decide that this

Juliana Spicoluk:

doesn't feel right for me, I don't want this. I want

Juliana Spicoluk:

something else. I want to feel and experience my life in a

Juliana Spicoluk:

completely different way from what I've been told. Then at

Juliana Spicoluk:

times, society can label you as crazy or, well, you're just

Juliana Spicoluk:

That's insane. How could you do that? Like you're saying you

Juliana Spicoluk:

have kids, you have responsibilities, you have all

Juliana Spicoluk:

of these things like, how could you just pick up your life and

Juliana Spicoluk:

move somewhere else? But to me, I think if we can step away from

Juliana Spicoluk:

this old construct that I feel like, planetarily, spiritually,

Juliana Spicoluk:

collective consciousness right now is starting to shift from

Juliana Spicoluk:

and realize that we don't need to live that way anymore, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

that we can create a new world for ourselves, for our own

Juliana Spicoluk:

families.

Kate Harlow:

Hello, my loves. Before you get into this really

Kate Harlow:

special, really beautiful conversation and episode, I

Kate Harlow:

wanted to tell you a little bit about Juliana, in case you don't

Kate Harlow:

know her, Juliana Spike is a globally recognized yoga

Kate Harlow:

teacher, Pilates wellness, author, and a visionary and co

Kate Harlow:

founder of boho beautiful. So I know so many women follow boho

Kate Harlow:

beautiful and do yoga and pilates online with them. She

Kate Harlow:

and her husband, she shares the story, but they started in a van

Kate Harlow:

traveling around, recording videos, and they have now have

Kate Harlow:

over 3 million subscribers on YouTube, and have had over half

Kate Harlow:

a billion views. So they're really, really making an impact

Kate Harlow:

in the world. And Juliana, my I mean, one of my favorite things

Kate Harlow:

about her, we met in Costa Rica. We're both living, I kind of

Kate Harlow:

like the escape pandemic, living in Costa Rica, following our

Kate Harlow:

hearts, following our unscripted lives in 2021 and our paths

Kate Harlow:

crossed, and that's where we connected for the first time.

Kate Harlow:

But she really is the embodiment, embodiment inside

Kate Harlow:

out, of wellness and of love and of heart and of beauty, and she

Kate Harlow:

just has created a massive movement. And one of my favorite

Kate Harlow:

things about this conversation that I hope sparks you on your

Kate Harlow:

own unscripted path is that her unscripted path still includes

Kate Harlow:

having a husband. She has two beautiful little children, a

Kate Harlow:

baby and a toddler, and, you know, is still living

Kate Harlow:

unconventionally and following our heart and has created a

Kate Harlow:

massive movement based on really her purpose in the world. So my

Kate Harlow:

my intention with having her on is to expand and inspire you

Kate Harlow:

that it's possible to be unscripted in so many ways, and

Kate Harlow:

I will continue to have guests on that represent different

Kate Harlow:

options and different ways that women can really live a life

Kate Harlow:

that's in alignment with their own hearts. Juliana truly has

Kate Harlow:

the energy of an angel, and I absolutely love connecting with

Kate Harlow:

her. So I hope you enjoy this beautiful conversation, spread

Kate Harlow:

it and share the episode with all the women you know who need

Kate Harlow:

a little boost and a reminder that we can follow our hearts

Kate Harlow:

and we can live an unconventional, unscripted life

Kate Harlow:

and go our own way and enjoy we'll see you soon.

Kate Harlow:

Hello, beautiful. Welcome to the new truth podcast. Hello,

Kate Harlow:

Juliana,

Juliana Spicoluk:

hello, hello, hello. Welcome

Kate Harlow:

back. Yes, it's been a while. It has. I was

Kate Harlow:

trying to think, um, this morning, I was trying. I didn't

Kate Harlow:

look up the episode, but I had you and mark on, maybe two years

Kate Harlow:

ago.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Yes, I think it was maybe a little over two.

Juliana Spicoluk:

It was, we were in Costa Rica. I remember doing the yes episode

Juliana Spicoluk:

with you. So that was, yeah, I would say, over two years ago,

Juliana Spicoluk:

which is crazy. I feel like so much has happened since the last

Juliana Spicoluk:

time we spoke. We

Kate Harlow:

have a lot to catch up on. We'll do it here on the

Kate Harlow:

live, live on the

Juliana Spicoluk:

podcast. But yeah, it's funny, as I find that

Juliana Spicoluk:

also through social media, it's even though so much time has

Juliana Spicoluk:

passed since we've even connected. But because we follow

Juliana Spicoluk:

each other, and you kind of stay up to date, of like, what all of

Juliana Spicoluk:

us are up to, you don't feel as much of a a disconnection. Or

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, Oh, my God, two years, you know what else happened? It's

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, I kind of feel like I have an idea, like, I know you've

Juliana Spicoluk:

been in Africa, I know you've been in Kenya. Like, I, you know

Juliana Spicoluk:

what? I mean, you're in Greece, you're doing your thing, your

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful retreats, all of the stuff. It's like, I, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

obviously not to the depth of what social media doesn't show

Juliana Spicoluk:

but it's still a wonderful thing that through this digital world,

Juliana Spicoluk:

we don't feel as disconnected as we would have otherwise.

Kate Harlow:

So true. I feel like that is, yeah, I mean, with

Kate Harlow:

everything, there's there's gifts, and there's shadow sides

Kate Harlow:

to everything. Um, yes, yes, yeah, that's totally the gift of

Kate Harlow:

of social media. I love that. I love meeting. I imagine you

Kate Harlow:

might feel similar, but I based on traveling so much and doing

Kate Harlow:

what I do and being who I am, I meet people everywhere. And I

Kate Harlow:

love that ability to to meet people and have I think of all

Kate Harlow:

the people I met on the on the farm during. In those four

Kate Harlow:

months that I was there in Kenya, and how I get to stay

Kate Harlow:

connected to them, and what they're up to now. And it's

Kate Harlow:

yeah, these connections don't just fall to the white side

Kate Harlow:

because you see people's lives and their pictures and their

Kate Harlow:

videos. It feels Yeah, like you said, like you're really still

Kate Harlow:

plugged in. Yeah, yeah. You

Juliana Spicoluk:

still stay connected, in a sense, right?

Juliana Spicoluk:

Which is, which is really, really beautiful, and yeah, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

I continue to be inspired by each other as well. And I think

Juliana Spicoluk:

that's really cool, right? It's because, you know, we we get

Juliana Spicoluk:

drawn to certain people for specific reasons, not just that,

Juliana Spicoluk:

oh, you need somebody, but it's like, there's a reason you need

Juliana Spicoluk:

somebody. And then you click, and then you feel your energy,

Juliana Spicoluk:

kind of vibe with each other, where you want to continue that

Juliana Spicoluk:

connection and relationship and friendship, right? And there,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, through those reasons, whether that is inspiration or

Juliana Spicoluk:

admiration, whatever it is, we continue to have that energy as

Juliana Spicoluk:

we continue to follow them through social media and choose

Juliana Spicoluk:

to, you know, to stay connected in that way. So

Kate Harlow:

that's beautiful. Yeah. Choose the social media.

Kate Harlow:

We do love a little part of you. I, as you were talking, I'm

Kate Harlow:

like, Oh my gosh, I just pictured what's what was that

Kate Harlow:

restaurant? I went there all the time, but I can't remember

Kate Harlow:

what's called. Where we met the first night in, oh yeah.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Love burger.

Kate Harlow:

Yeah, love burger. Oh my gosh, that night, and

Kate Harlow:

then, and then I remember walking on the seawall in

Kate Harlow:

Vancouver, in Yaletown with you, and Mark, yeah, because we

Juliana Spicoluk:

were visiting for like two days, my friend's

Juliana Spicoluk:

wedding was happening, and that was when Xavier was still little

Juliana Spicoluk:

young. He was only, like, was it seven months old or something?

Juliana Spicoluk:

So that was like, three and a half years ago now, which is,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but, yeah, I know it's crazy. It's crazy how much life has

Juliana Spicoluk:

moved and shifted, in a way, since we lost each other.

Kate Harlow:

It's beautiful. Well, I feel like we're both

Kate Harlow:

modeling this, living an unscripted life so well. And I I

Kate Harlow:

feel like, I mean, just astrologically speaking, moving

Kate Harlow:

into the Aquarian Age versus Capricorn is so aligned to to

Kate Harlow:

because it's like the breakdown of all the old systems. For

Kate Harlow:

those of you who don't know astrology, but I'm sure I've I'm

Kate Harlow:

not an astrologer, but I've mentioned it before, breakdown

Kate Harlow:

of old systems, and also this like collaborative community,

Kate Harlow:

new new paradigms, new ways of being, new ways of thinking,

Kate Harlow:

big, dreaming, big energy that comes with the Aquarian Age that

Kate Harlow:

we're in now. And so, yeah, I'm so excited. The reason we we

Kate Harlow:

came up with this, this title, and this topic is just you and I

Kate Harlow:

were just catching up and just to catch everyone else up. And

Kate Harlow:

we were like, oh my god, this is the topic that we need to talk

Kate Harlow:

about today. Is unscripted life. Because, like you said earlier,

Kate Harlow:

so many people desire it right now, and so many people are

Kate Harlow:

feeling, I know a lot of my clients, are saying, like, Oh,

Kate Harlow:

I'm fed up with America, I'm fed up with Canada, I'm fed up with

Kate Harlow:

wherever they live. And they're really ready to take the risk

Kate Harlow:

and to but often they think, okay, it's just you that has a

Kate Harlow:

magical life, like, I could never do that, and I have kids,

Kate Harlow:

or I have a partner, or I have and so if it's so great to have

Kate Harlow:

you here to represent you know, someone who has an amazing

Kate Harlow:

relationship and two beautiful children, and that you're also

Kate Harlow:

living this really unscripted, following your hearts, following

Kate Harlow:

your truths life. So do you want to tell us a little bit about

Kate Harlow:

it. Share a little bit about your story.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Yeah, gosh. Where do I begin? I mean, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

think just to speak to what you're saying, you know, you're

Juliana Spicoluk:

saying astrologically, like, there we're going through this

Juliana Spicoluk:

different shift in time. And even, you know, you're looking

Juliana Spicoluk:

at it from the yogic perspective, you know that they

Juliana Spicoluk:

talk about, like we're just coming to the end of Kali Yuga,

Juliana Spicoluk:

right? And Kali Yuga, which is kind of that unsettling era of

Juliana Spicoluk:

war and hardship and difficulty. And I feel like I feel it, and I

Juliana Spicoluk:

see it now that we're transitioning into this new

Juliana Spicoluk:

stage, because there's this slight, like, almost Mass

Juliana Spicoluk:

Awakening that's happening. And that's happening not only from

Juliana Spicoluk:

people starting to get a little bit more curious about

Juliana Spicoluk:

spirituality, wellness, well being. You know, you just see

Juliana Spicoluk:

the new things kind of starting to become more mainstream, but

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's also people waking up to this idea, like they're saying

Juliana Spicoluk:

that they don't want to continue to live the life they've lived

Juliana Spicoluk:

for their whole since, since they were born, or since they've

Juliana Spicoluk:

been kind of told this is the way you're supposed to do it.

Juliana Spicoluk:

You're supposed to go to school, get a degree, go to university,

Juliana Spicoluk:

get married, have children, have a home, have a mortgage, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

there's like, this thing you have to do. And as soon as you

Juliana Spicoluk:

wake up and decide that this doesn't feel right for me, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't want this. I want something else. I want to feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

and experience my life in a completely different way from

Juliana Spicoluk:

what I've been told then. At times, society can label you as

Juliana Spicoluk:

crazy or, well, you're just That's insane. How could you do

Juliana Spicoluk:

that? Like you're saying you have kids, you have

Juliana Spicoluk:

responsibilities, you have all of these things like, how could

Juliana Spicoluk:

you just pick up your life and move somewhere else, but to. Me,

Juliana Spicoluk:

I think if we can step away from this old construct that I feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, planetarily, spiritually, collective consciousness right

Juliana Spicoluk:

now is starting to shift from and realize that we don't need

Juliana Spicoluk:

to live that way anymore, and that we can create a new world

Juliana Spicoluk:

for ourselves, for our own families. And that starts with,

Juliana Spicoluk:

one, is it just a decision as to decide, no, I want a different

Juliana Spicoluk:

life. And two, is looking at what you have to offer in the

Juliana Spicoluk:

world and how, especially in this, as we talked about digital

Juliana Spicoluk:

world that we live in now, there's so many more

Juliana Spicoluk:

possibilities of making an income, of sustaining yourself

Juliana Spicoluk:

or just creating a different life than, let's say, even our

Juliana Spicoluk:

parents might have had, you know, 40 years ago, 50 years

Juliana Spicoluk:

ago, and so you know, to talk about our story, I mean for

Juliana Spicoluk:

myself and and my family and everything it really be. We were

Juliana Spicoluk:

really gifted. Because we're mostly gifted. We were blessed

Juliana Spicoluk:

in a way, because when we started Bova beautiful, and we

Juliana Spicoluk:

have an online digital wellness brand, you know, we started when

Juliana Spicoluk:

it was just the beginning. At that time, it was like two, 2016

Juliana Spicoluk:

like YouTube was just starting to kind of yeah happen. And, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, we had the desire that we wanted to create a different

Juliana Spicoluk:

life for ourselves. And we were living in Toronto at that time,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and I felt like I was physically being suffocated by that life,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, working two jobs. I didn't have children, I had a

Juliana Spicoluk:

dog and Mark and, you know, we had a home and everything. But I

Juliana Spicoluk:

felt myself like I was drowning, like it was just I wasn't

Juliana Spicoluk:

feeling fulfilled, I wasn't feeling like I was growing.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Things were starting to not align anymore, like I, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

I remember having to have a second job, and I was a

Juliana Spicoluk:

bartender at, like a bar, and just feeling this resistance

Juliana Spicoluk:

every time I had to even go into that space, because I'm like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

this isn't meaning, or I didn't align with what I want to do and

Juliana Spicoluk:

how I want to live my life. And I remember it just became a

Juliana Spicoluk:

choice after that with Mark, because Mark was feeling

Juliana Spicoluk:

similarly in his own ways. And I'm like, Well, look, we want to

Juliana Spicoluk:

see the world, we want to travel, we want to experience

Juliana Spicoluk:

life in a new way. And so let's find a way for ourselves. And at

Juliana Spicoluk:

that point, you know, for us, the ideas came through, creating

Juliana Spicoluk:

content online. So, you know, as a yoga teacher and doing Pilates

Juliana Spicoluk:

and that that was my passion, really. And so it was just, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, I've had so many requests of my students asking if I offer

Juliana Spicoluk:

anything online. This is back in the day when there wasn't as

Juliana Spicoluk:

much online things, yeah. And I was like, let's just, like, buy

Juliana Spicoluk:

a camera and just start creating something. And so we did, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, we just started shooting in, like, Mark's office at that

Juliana Spicoluk:

time, and, like, behind a white wall. And then we started to

Juliana Spicoluk:

travel and then start incorporating, like, anytime you

Juliana Spicoluk:

would go, let's just say we went to Thailand and like, okay,

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're in Thailand for one week. You know, it wasn't like we

Juliana Spicoluk:

could travel for a month, and then we just went for one week.

Juliana Spicoluk:

And then we would, you know, take that camera and start

Juliana Spicoluk:

creating little videos on the beach and and doing yoga classes

Juliana Spicoluk:

and giving that opportunity for people to experience the the

Juliana Spicoluk:

cultures and the different ways of life that we were

Juliana Spicoluk:

experiencing through our travels, and so as a backstory

Juliana Spicoluk:

that's, you know, a short way, because it's definitely a longer

Juliana Spicoluk:

story than what I'm saying. But one thing led to another, that

Juliana Spicoluk:

we were then able to create a business, an online business,

Juliana Spicoluk:

that allowed us that opportunity, to be able to leave

Juliana Spicoluk:

the city to not be beholden to a job, physically in one space,

Juliana Spicoluk:

that our job then and our passion and we felt like our

Juliana Spicoluk:

service to the world was able to sustain us to be able to travel

Juliana Spicoluk:

and start to experience life, which then opens your eyes even

Juliana Spicoluk:

more to understanding like, Wow, there's So much to this

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful world where living in this one city and city that you

Juliana Spicoluk:

felt like deep down, the suffocating you is not the way

Juliana Spicoluk:

life is too short to allow yourself to live that way, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know. And yeah. And so for us, you know, our business done well

Juliana Spicoluk:

that we've been able to continue that lifestyle. And then now we

Juliana Spicoluk:

have two children, four year olds and a 10 month old. And,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, we lived in Costa Rica for a long period of time,

Juliana Spicoluk:

thinking that that was going to be a place where we want to

Juliana Spicoluk:

raise our children and kind of call home, because in the remote

Juliana Spicoluk:

town, a yoga town, you know, there's nature, it was very much

Juliana Spicoluk:

removed from the typical kind of cultural society that, let's

Juliana Spicoluk:

say, big cities in Canada at that time are are, but that also

Juliana Spicoluk:

shifted, and that also changed. And then, you know, as

Juliana Spicoluk:

everything in life, it ebbs and flows, and that energy didn't

Juliana Spicoluk:

align with us anymore. There's certain things that made us not

Juliana Spicoluk:

feel safe raising our family anymore in that town. And then

Juliana Spicoluk:

somehow, again, we surrendered to took away life was guiding

Juliana Spicoluk:

us, and somehow Barbados, out of all places, never expected

Juliana Spicoluk:

Barbados to be a place we would call home, but being one thing

Juliana Spicoluk:

after the other just aligned. And we arrived here, and then we

Juliana Spicoluk:

started meeting different, like minded families and. You know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

other families of small children. So, like our children

Juliana Spicoluk:

can become have, can start to create, like a community for

Juliana Spicoluk:

themselves. And it's really, really beautiful on this island.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Is amazing to raise children because, like, it's safe, it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful in terms of the nature the water so calm they can, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, examine like such a swimmer now, and love the ocean.

Juliana Spicoluk:

You go snorkel with the turtles here, and it's just, it's a

Juliana Spicoluk:

different, a different lifestyle, you know, and now

Juliana Spicoluk:

that we're here, it's, I feel very, very blessed that we're

Juliana Spicoluk:

able to, you know, create this life for our kids. And it just

Juliana Spicoluk:

started from us making that one decision, to put ourselves out

Juliana Spicoluk:

there, out in the world, you know, start creating content and

Juliana Spicoluk:

sharing it with the world, not knowing if it would connect or

Juliana Spicoluk:

not, because you really don't know. You know first time you

Juliana Spicoluk:

post that video,

Kate Harlow:

and I can already hear like when you first I mean,

Kate Harlow:

thank you so much for sharing that beautiful and I know

Kate Harlow:

there's so many nuances to your story and but I just like as you

Kate Harlow:

started, I thought, Wow, what a great way suffocating like that

Kate Harlow:

is what it feels like when you're going against your own

Kate Harlow:

truth. It's either you have like, insane anxiety that wakes

Kate Harlow:

you up every night, that was me back in the day, like I'd wake

Kate Harlow:

up in the night, like freaking out with anxiety, and it's

Kate Harlow:

because I was lying to myself, or feeling suffocated every time

Kate Harlow:

you go into the place that's so that you've outgrown. Really,

Kate Harlow:

it's just part of yourself that you're ready to to let go of so

Kate Harlow:

the new parts can be born that relevant. I feel like so because

Kate Harlow:

we have to be we have to be willing to let the old self die

Kate Harlow:

so we can be reborn over and over again.

Juliana Spicoluk:

100% especially I find as a woman,

Juliana Spicoluk:

there's we go through so many chapters of death and rebirth,

Juliana Spicoluk:

yes, and you know, you look at it one way, like, as a mother, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

feel like I've died twice and birthed myself two times because

Juliana Spicoluk:

I've had two children, but outside of even just being a

Juliana Spicoluk:

mother, like there's chapters in our life, like, you know, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

were speaking earlier, like you feel like you've outgrown a

Juliana Spicoluk:

relationship where you don't feel like you're able to evolve

Juliana Spicoluk:

anymore with this person, and it's not anything against them,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but it's like, yes, this beautiful, deep connection that

Juliana Spicoluk:

you have within yourself with your own truth, knowing that

Juliana Spicoluk:

like this isn't allowing me to feel that expansion that I need

Juliana Spicoluk:

to continue within my evolution on this earth. Because really, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

all of us like we're we're souls in these physical forms and

Juliana Spicoluk:

physical bodies, and we're here to expand and to learn and to

Juliana Spicoluk:

grow. And all of the relationships and circumstances

Juliana Spicoluk:

and things that life in universe brings our way is for that

Juliana Spicoluk:

growth. And so I find if we're not honoring that growth, if

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're not listening to it and and keeping ourselves stagnant,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you're we're doing more harm, not just spiritually, but also

Juliana Spicoluk:

physically too. Like you hear people start to get sick, or

Juliana Spicoluk:

they start to feel like this, ailments like or worse. Even you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, sicknesses, cancer, things can arise, and it's because

Juliana Spicoluk:

they're just emotionally unable to allow themselves to grow to

Juliana Spicoluk:

release, to let go, to let go exactly, to kill a part of them

Juliana Spicoluk:

so that a new part of them can be reborn. Yeah, exactly. And

Kate Harlow:

I think, like, whenever I'm working with women,

Kate Harlow:

and they're they're like, in the ping pong game, in their mind,

Kate Harlow:

should I stay or should I go? Should I, you know, whether it's

Kate Harlow:

staying in Canada and or going, which is where, yeah, we're

Kate Harlow:

living, or should I stay in this relationship or go, should I

Kate Harlow:

say? Which, if we're in our mind, it's just going to play

Kate Harlow:

both sides of the the game. It's a ping pong game. It's never

Kate Harlow:

going to stop. And then we ask a million people, and then we get

Kate Harlow:

all confused and muddled. But whenever I ask a woman to close

Kate Harlow:

her eyes and connect with her heart, the truth is, always

Kate Harlow:

there, always It's wild. It's even if she's in agony for

Kate Harlow:

months and months, it's clear when she closes her eyes and

Kate Harlow:

when she opens them, she might not allow herself to follow it,

Kate Harlow:

but this is so important, I think, like, who would you be,

Kate Harlow:

and what would your life be if you hadn't had the courage? And

Kate Harlow:

I could also hear people's minds or saboteur in my words, ego

Kate Harlow:

mind, saying things like, oh well, Juliana could do it and

Kate Harlow:

mark because they got in early YouTube, they got in early so

Kate Harlow:

they created a successful business because of that. But

Kate Harlow:

then people now will say, Yeah, or it's, it's too late to do it

Kate Harlow:

now. But that's not true. The different what you did, it was

Kate Harlow:

actually more risky to do it back then. Right now, we have so

Kate Harlow:

much evidence and information that you can create success

Kate Harlow:

online, the key real success where it's aligned with your

Kate Harlow:

heart and your vibration, that's when we really make an impact,

Kate Harlow:

not just monetary success, but actual like fulfillment in what

Kate Harlow:

you do, and being satiated by your work and your purpose is

Kate Harlow:

Like actually listening to that heart, whether it's moving

Kate Harlow:

somewhere or saying yes to a new path or whatever, whatever the

Kate Harlow:

thing may be, you cannot lose when you're following your heart

Kate Harlow:

like it's going to lead you. It's not a linear path. It's not

Kate Harlow:

going to happen overnight, but it's going to lead you in the

Kate Harlow:

right direction, even if it's the opposite of what your mind

Kate Harlow:

thinks. Is the direction is going to be 100%

Juliana Spicoluk:

and, you know, just to comment what you're

Juliana Spicoluk:

saying, like, yes, for us, this was the path for us. And we

Juliana Spicoluk:

were, say, lucky, in a sense, at that point, that we were early,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but we continue to do our business. And it's not getting

Juliana Spicoluk:

any easier. Like you're in this huge sea of competition, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

there's 1000s of yoga apps and 1000s of wellness things

Juliana Spicoluk:

happening, and everyone's got something to sell, and everybody

Juliana Spicoluk:

got something to offer. But I think also, when you look at it

Juliana Spicoluk:

that way, like everyone's doing it because they can. And if it

Juliana Spicoluk:

is your passion, and if this is something that you feel called

Juliana Spicoluk:

to, because, you know, it should be something that you feel like

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm at service to, because it has to fulfill you, not just

Juliana Spicoluk:

because, well, this is the one way to do make money, then I'm

Juliana Spicoluk:

going to follow it. It's like, if you're following just the

Juliana Spicoluk:

monetary aspect, then, you know, I don't think it's going to be

Juliana Spicoluk:

as fulfilling as you expect. But if you truly, like you said,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like close your eyes and connect and and see, what is it that you

Juliana Spicoluk:

connect to? What is it that really makes you feel alive?

Juliana Spicoluk:

Whether that is a service or maybe that is art, maybe that

Juliana Spicoluk:

is, you know, you you see people like selling little things on

Juliana Spicoluk:

Etsy and make a business out of it. Do you know what I mean?

Juliana Spicoluk:

Like, there is so many opportunities right now,

Juliana Spicoluk:

especially as we were saying in this digital world that we live

Juliana Spicoluk:

this is so different than what it was even 20 years ago, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

you are able to create a business out of anything. And if

Juliana Spicoluk:

that's you know that what you're looking for to have that safety

Juliana Spicoluk:

net. But even if it's not a business that you're making

Juliana Spicoluk:

online, you can always like, I see some people that just move

Juliana Spicoluk:

to Barbados, and they're like, I'm a yoga teacher. I'm teaching

Juliana Spicoluk:

at a couple different studios here. Or, you know, they find

Juliana Spicoluk:

another like, there's always opportunities and other ways to

Juliana Spicoluk:

make an income and a life in a different environment. And it

Juliana Spicoluk:

doesn't have to be the place that makes you feel stuck or

Juliana Spicoluk:

suffocated. And I think when people can face that fear, to

Juliana Spicoluk:

even just travel and see what is out there in the world, and to

Juliana Spicoluk:

meet like you're saying, you meet so many new people, and you

Juliana Spicoluk:

hear their stories, and you see people doing it in all their own

Juliana Spicoluk:

different ways, and there's no there's no box to follow, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

you can create whatever you want. You know you can really

Juliana Spicoluk:

you're the master of your own life. And if you meet different,

Juliana Spicoluk:

different people that do it a different way, like, it's so

Juliana Spicoluk:

inspiring to see that all you really need is courage, and all

Juliana Spicoluk:

you really need is the strength in your own heart to like, to

Juliana Spicoluk:

make that difficult choice. And the hardest choice is to leave

Juliana Spicoluk:

is the hardest choice is to make decision, the decision in your

Juliana Spicoluk:

heart, to choose to put your house for sale, or to break your

Juliana Spicoluk:

lease, or to sell your car and all the belongings, and just

Juliana Spicoluk:

pack your bags and just go and yes, you know, as I say these

Juliana Spicoluk:

things, sometimes you're like, Well, you know, single thing,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but I have kids, and they have, you know, a life and this. But

Juliana Spicoluk:

even just to give you an example, we had somebody that

Juliana Spicoluk:

worked for our company. He him and his family were living in

Juliana Spicoluk:

Toronto all their life. Never left. And, you know, for the

Juliana Spicoluk:

first six months he was working with us, he's constantly was

Juliana Spicoluk:

just, you know, personally, sharing with Mark like them as a

Juliana Spicoluk:

family, just feeling really stuck. And again, that that

Juliana Spicoluk:

feeling like suffocating, we need to change, but we don't

Juliana Spicoluk:

know how they have, like, two kids that are, you know, 10 and

Juliana Spicoluk:

seven, and the wife has, she's a lawyer at a, like, a corporate

Juliana Spicoluk:

office in Toronto. Like, there's so many things that keeping them

Juliana Spicoluk:

grounded. And I remember with Mark, I was like, Look, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't have to make the biggest decision of your life and sell

Juliana Spicoluk:

everything. Go like, here in Barbados, they have a welcome

Juliana Spicoluk:

stamp visa, so they give you an opportunity to go for one year.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Like, put your rent your house well, because you have worked

Juliana Spicoluk:

for us. So we're like, move here. We're living here now as

Juliana Spicoluk:

well. Move your family here. Put your kids in a school for one

Juliana Spicoluk:

year in Barbados, you know, make the arrangements like you don't

Juliana Spicoluk:

have to completely destroy everything that you build in

Juliana Spicoluk:

your town, but just take a pause and go see and experience a

Juliana Spicoluk:

different way of living. And they did, and it was amazing,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, they it was so scary for them. They they packed a

Juliana Spicoluk:

bunch of stuff. They shipped it over here. The kids got into

Juliana Spicoluk:

school for the year. They had a beautiful school here that they

Juliana Spicoluk:

love. And even his wife is able to figure out a way with the

Juliana Spicoluk:

corporate job she was in to be able to work remotely. Because

Juliana Spicoluk:

since COVID, I think, like, people are a lot more open to

Juliana Spicoluk:

that now, like zoom and all these things, like, it's a lot

Juliana Spicoluk:

easier to do it than before, and they did, you know, and it was

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful, and they lived for a year, and they actually, I think

Juliana Spicoluk:

they're going back to Toronto because, you know, she's not

Juliana Spicoluk:

working for us anymore, just for the reasons, but whatever

Juliana Spicoluk:

circumstance that happened, the fact that they did it for a

Juliana Spicoluk:

year, and just to see them actually grow, and how much they

Juliana Spicoluk:

loved it and their children. And like the relationship they, they

Juliana Spicoluk:

they made, and like just how much more connected with nature

Juliana Spicoluk:

they started to become, to a point where they were like, Oh

Juliana Spicoluk:

well, you know, we don't even want to go back to Canada

Juliana Spicoluk:

anymore. Like they, they really loved it here, because of the,

Juliana Spicoluk:

obviously, the relationship. At the the working relationship

Juliana Spicoluk:

with us, they might go back to figure it out now, because it's,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, they obviously life changes. But the fact that I

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't know where they'll go next, maybe they'll move to a

Juliana Spicoluk:

different country. They're talking about maybe going to

Juliana Spicoluk:

California now, but you know, just that one first step for

Juliana Spicoluk:

them, for a family that you would say were so tied with so

Juliana Spicoluk:

many different ways they did it, and it was really inspiring. And

Juliana Spicoluk:

I was so proud of them, because I'm like, Wow, that's amazing.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Guys like you, as scary as it is, it's so possible and it is,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and you learn and you experience and what's the worst thing that

Juliana Spicoluk:

happens if you go back your house is back. They know what I

Juliana Spicoluk:

mean, but the richness that you receive from living in a

Juliana Spicoluk:

different country, your children being exposed to different

Juliana Spicoluk:

cultures, to different people. It Like It's there's no price

Juliana Spicoluk:

tag on that, like it is the most enriching thing you can offer

Juliana Spicoluk:

for yourself or for your family. And even if it's temporary, it

Juliana Spicoluk:

doesn't have to be a forever, you know. But I think life is so

Juliana Spicoluk:

short that to not give ourselves the opportunity to just live and

Juliana Spicoluk:

experience it, even for a short moment. It's so crucial,

Kate Harlow:

and you never know where to lead. Like you never

Kate Harlow:

know on that experience if you're going to meet what new,

Kate Harlow:

new possibilities will come your way that you couldn't see

Kate Harlow:

before. Like I think of how many things in my life are my lived

Kate Harlow:

reality now, and what I'm even moving into that I didn't even

Kate Harlow:

know I wanted before. We often so many women when there's first

Kate Harlow:

trying to figure out what they desire or what they're you know,

Kate Harlow:

what is their big, juicy Kate or Juliana style, like unscripted

Kate Harlow:

life? What does theirs look like, and their mind might be

Kate Harlow:

able to try and imagine? But it there's so much ahead of us when

Kate Harlow:

we're not learning the script and we're not following the x,

Kate Harlow:

y, z, check the boxes, live your life in this tiny box, and

Kate Harlow:

follow the rules and stay where you were born and don't go

Kate Harlow:

anywhere and don't do anything, and and when you're not high on

Kate Harlow:

drugs the whole time or numb on drugs because you can't, you

Kate Harlow:

don't want to feel any of it like when you're not living that

Kate Harlow:

life anymore and You're no longer willing to suffocate

Kate Harlow:

yourself. You actually don't need to know where you're going.

Kate Harlow:

You can have ideas. My client told me the other day, this is

Kate Harlow:

so cool. I recorded my online course that that all my clients

Kate Harlow:

go through. I called the reclamation. I did it in 2020

Kate Harlow:

from Vancouver for my place in Vancouver. And I say she shared

Kate Harlow:

with me that I say in the video, one day I'm gonna live in

Kate Harlow:

Europe, like maybe Italy, or somewhere in the Mediterranean.

Kate Harlow:

I didn't know I was moving to Greece. Wow. He said that five

Kate Harlow:

years ago. You just don't know. You really don't desires and

Kate Harlow:

manifesto level, yes, yeah, exactly. And on some soul level,

Kate Harlow:

I did know, maybe, but I didn't even when I moved here, it was

Kate Harlow:

on a whim, like it was because of COVID airplane. Remember that

Kate Harlow:

story? I remember, yeah, yeah. It was on a whim. So it's not

Kate Harlow:

it. You don't have, like, we've been so programmed to believe we

Kate Harlow:

have to plan our futures. You don't know your future self. All

Kate Harlow:

you need to do, like you said, like your that beautiful story

Kate Harlow:

you just shared is just like, what's your heart and soul

Kate Harlow:

calling right now? What's like knocking at your door over and

Kate Harlow:

over and over again right now? And to just follow that thread

Kate Harlow:

and take one step, you know, to even go somewhere for a month.

Kate Harlow:

So many people say to me, I want to live in Europe one day. Okay,

Kate Harlow:

come to Europe. Come for three months. Because you can't, you

Kate Harlow:

know you can stay in here without a visa for three months,

Kate Harlow:

but so many countries have digital nomad visas now, like,

Kate Harlow:

if you have a desire, just take one step towards it, because

Kate Harlow:

it's going to lead you. There's going to be so much more that

Kate Harlow:

you don't even know your desire that will open up. And I'm sure

Kate Harlow:

you have a million stories like that too. 100%

Juliana Spicoluk:

No, and that's exactly what you're saying. It's

Juliana Spicoluk:

taking that first step without feeling like you have to make

Juliana Spicoluk:

the biggest commitment of your life and sell everything. And

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know what I mean? Because, yeah, you have no idea what even

Juliana Spicoluk:

the experience is like. If you've never been to Europe, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

you want to know what it's like to live in Europe, go live for

Juliana Spicoluk:

two months, like you're saying, because living and visiting a

Juliana Spicoluk:

place is so different, right? It's like, it's nice. You go on

Juliana Spicoluk:

a vacation for a week. You're like, this is perfect, amazing.

Juliana Spicoluk:

You try living there for some period of time, you may not feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

the same way again. And I think that experience right there is

Juliana Spicoluk:

important as well. And especially I also find, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, for anybody that feels that feeling inside, that kind

Juliana Spicoluk:

of ocean, like, this kind of suffocation, of like, oh, this

Juliana Spicoluk:

is not feeling right for me anymore. I want to change, but I

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't know where to start. I don't know where to go. I don't

Juliana Spicoluk:

know what are the right steps to take. I'm too afraid. There's

Juliana Spicoluk:

just too much on me is, you know, taking, let's just say, a

Juliana Spicoluk:

retreat, you know, not like a vacation, but a retreat to go,

Juliana Spicoluk:

maybe like, you know, you offer some beautiful retreats, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

with your your women's groups, or, you know, a yoga retreat, or

Juliana Spicoluk:

whatever it is. I mean, right now the world is filled with so

Juliana Spicoluk:

many opportunities, but just being able to remove yourself to

Juliana Spicoluk:

a new environment, to a new culture for a couple weeks to a

Juliana Spicoluk:

month, and really allow yourself to deprogram yourself from

Juliana Spicoluk:

living in a specific way that certain places in the world,

Juliana Spicoluk:

especially big. Cities and, you know, the Western I find also

Juliana Spicoluk:

mentality kind of brainwashes us with and living in a completely

Juliana Spicoluk:

different environment, with new people and being inspired by

Juliana Spicoluk:

other people that could be that first step, because then you

Juliana Spicoluk:

come back and you're like, wow, and then you feel like the

Juliana Spicoluk:

difference now, and this happened actually, to mark and

Juliana Spicoluk:

I, before we even decided to do our big, big shift and change in

Juliana Spicoluk:

our life, we used to travel to Costa Rica almost couple times a

Juliana Spicoluk:

year, and we would just go for a couple weeks, maybe a month,

Juliana Spicoluk:

maybe because that was much time as we could take off from all

Juliana Spicoluk:

the obligations we had in the city at the time. But I remember

Juliana Spicoluk:

every time I would go, I would come back to Toronto, and I

Juliana Spicoluk:

would literally cry. I would be at the airport, and I would be

Juliana Spicoluk:

crying because I just felt like my body, physically was I don't

Juliana Spicoluk:

want to be here anymore. I don't want to be there anymore, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

this isn't aligning. And the more I traveled outside, the

Juliana Spicoluk:

stronger that feeling became every time I would return, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

that was the biggest sign. I was like, Okay, this isn't just me

Juliana Spicoluk:

wanting a change. This is literally my body, physically

Juliana Spicoluk:

resisting to the energy that this place is about. And right

Juliana Spicoluk:

there that was enough to be like, yeah, that's it. Whatever

Juliana Spicoluk:

I have to do, I have to figure it out. And it doesn't have to

Juliana Spicoluk:

be, you know, like whether even I remember him in Mark, and I

Juliana Spicoluk:

was like, I'm just gonna move to coast. Gonna move to Costa Rica,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and I'll set up an ice cream shack, and I'll just sell ice

Juliana Spicoluk:

cream on the beach. Like, I don't know, do whatever we need

Juliana Spicoluk:

to do, you know, to figure out financially that you can at

Juliana Spicoluk:

least sustain yourself to a degree. But it's like, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like I said, again, it's, it's life is, is just too fragile and

Juliana Spicoluk:

too short to not live, not in our truth, you know, and to

Juliana Spicoluk:

continue to suppress that truth that we feel in our heart is

Juliana Spicoluk:

only going to bite us in the ass, pretty much, because, yeah,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's going to come out one way or another. You know, there is a

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful book I was reading, the gabriate, and, you know, he

Juliana Spicoluk:

talks about like, in terms of just the idea of trauma, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

certain psychological traumas that we go through in our life,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and when we don't find a way to release that energy or to to

Juliana Spicoluk:

feel the wounds and to work through them, they physically

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, they make you ill, like all of the sicknesses and and

Juliana Spicoluk:

diseases that arise a lot of the times where the root, the root

Juliana Spicoluk:

was something psychological or something like that, we weren't

Juliana Spicoluk:

connected. We weren't living our truth. We were suppressing,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, even suppressing now, there's, like, all these

Juliana Spicoluk:

scientific studies talking about, like, especially in

Juliana Spicoluk:

women, like, what women that were suppressing, like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

vocalizing what they want and what they need, and how that was

Juliana Spicoluk:

actually coming into, like, certain different ovarian

Juliana Spicoluk:

cancers and different again, I don't have the stats in front of

Juliana Spicoluk:

me to fully speak to it scientifically. But like, if you

Juliana Spicoluk:

go deep into that research and see it's like, when we're not

Juliana Spicoluk:

able to live within our truth and to speak about it, we just

Juliana Spicoluk:

keep suppressing it and pushing it down. The body will will

Juliana Spicoluk:

revolt in one way. You know,

Kate Harlow:

it just, it's so beautiful. Because ever I love

Kate Harlow:

everything you just said, your body's never gonna stop talking

Kate Harlow:

to you and like, what a gift. I did an episode recently about

Kate Harlow:

how anxiety is a gift, because it's just like an out of tune

Kate Harlow:

guitar when your body's telling you to go one way, but your

Kate Harlow:

mind, AKA your soul, right? Your Heart and Soul want to go one

Kate Harlow:

way, and that's your truth, and then your mind always tells you

Kate Harlow:

to go the opposite, because it thinks, oh no, that expansive

Kate Harlow:

way is unsafe, so it creates this distortion and discord in

Kate Harlow:

the body, just like all the ailments, just like depression,

Kate Harlow:

like when you went repression, it's like everything's getting

Kate Harlow:

pushed down. So of course, you feel depressed because you're

Kate Harlow:

repressing absolutely everything, desires, your truth,

Kate Harlow:

your feelings, your your intuition, everything, but the

Kate Harlow:

more we can and that's why I love like, even just something

Kate Harlow:

as simple as yoga. So for someone who's like, really in

Kate Harlow:

your head, find a good yoga teacher who's really connected

Kate Harlow:

like you and you do Juliana's yoga on you guys have an app

Kate Harlow:

now, don't you? Yeah, we have a

Juliana Spicoluk:

full out app with hundreds and 1000s of

Juliana Spicoluk:

classes, and we actually started putting in different teachers

Juliana Spicoluk:

onto our app as well. Um, it's everything, not just yoga, but

Juliana Spicoluk:

we, you know, we have meditation, we have yoga,

Juliana Spicoluk:

nidras, we have breath work. We have so many different

Juliana Spicoluk:

modalities to help people come into their body and connect

Juliana Spicoluk:

deeper with their hearts, to again, to deepen that that

Juliana Spicoluk:

relationship. Because you know something also to comment when

Juliana Spicoluk:

you're saying about depression, and something I've realized

Juliana Spicoluk:

seeing just kind of how our Western society deals with these

Juliana Spicoluk:

mental ailments like depression, it's like, okay, you feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

depressed. Well, what do they do? They give you a bunch of

Juliana Spicoluk:

pills to numb yourself with. And I understand sometimes it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

very, very necessary. I can't comment that it's wrong, but I

Juliana Spicoluk:

think a lot of the times, like, they don't take the time to get

Juliana Spicoluk:

to the root of what is causing this person to feel depressed.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Why are they feeling unaligned? Like, maybe blah. Before we

Juliana Spicoluk:

start just throwing a bunch of chemicals at people that is

Juliana Spicoluk:

actually going to give them worse and give them side effects

Juliana Spicoluk:

and just put them in this terrible cycle, it's like, why

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't we address the root of it? And again, let's connect to the

Juliana Spicoluk:

body. Let's connect to the heart. What are we eating? What

Juliana Spicoluk:

are we drinking? What are we surrounding ourselves with? What

Juliana Spicoluk:

are the people in your life? How are you spending your time? What

Juliana Spicoluk:

kind of news or media are you consuming that is causing, like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

everything has an effect on our mind, our body and our heart.

Juliana Spicoluk:

And before we just jump into, you know, prescription, it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, Well, why don't we heal? Try the natural healing first,

Juliana Spicoluk:

see if that helps, you know. And I feel like if we were to

Juliana Spicoluk:

address those issues. In this perspective, I think there will

Juliana Spicoluk:

be a lot different outcomes for many people out there that

Juliana Spicoluk:

suffer with these type of mental ailments, such as depression.

Kate Harlow:

A lot of my clients is when I start working with me,

Kate Harlow:

they have they they're on medication because it's so

Kate Harlow:

common in North America, because everyone's just in the soup,

Kate Harlow:

right in the stress, functioning in the keeping their calendar so

Kate Harlow:

busy there's no spaciousness and and after a few months, and

Kate Harlow:

without even sharing with me, often, they just tell me after I

Kate Harlow:

don't even know they're on, and it's not something I talk about,

Kate Harlow:

I don't ask people, but unless I feel that they're very numb, and

Kate Harlow:

then I'll ask, but it just happens naturally, where they

Kate Harlow:

eventually are like, Oh, I don't need this anymore. And then it's

Kate Harlow:

because they're alive again, because they're following their

Kate Harlow:

truth. And I think you're I just feel like you're at your energy.

Kate Harlow:

You're one of the most this is why I love you so much, and I

Kate Harlow:

feel so aligned with you, and did the moment I met you. As I

Kate Harlow:

feel like you're so embodied in in everything that you believe,

Kate Harlow:

and your your energy, it just feels so consistent, and it's

Kate Harlow:

like it's so pure, because you you do have such a clean life.

Kate Harlow:

You're so connected to nature. You eat really clean. You're

Kate Harlow:

very intentional with every with with so many facets of your

Kate Harlow:

life. And so to learn from a teacher like that, I think of

Kate Harlow:

all the movies that have been out there over the years, of

Kate Harlow:

like the therapist who's actually a raging alcoholic

Kate Harlow:

behind the scenes by thread, versus like someone who's

Kate Harlow:

actually deeply embodied in the thing. Because when you're doing

Kate Harlow:

your classes, it's not just the class, it's the frequency that

Kate Harlow:

you're emitting, even through this conversation. So I think

Kate Harlow:

like the app is the best place to start, because people can put

Kate Harlow:

it on their phones, their computers. Goes with you.

Kate Harlow:

Everywhere you go, carve out that space every morning, spend,

Kate Harlow:

you know, 30 minutes or an hour on your app, or even 10 minutes,

Kate Harlow:

whatever, doing something for yourself to connect with your

Kate Harlow:

body, like I said. Not you everyone listening, obviously,

Kate Harlow:

but like, like, I like, I said before, it's like that you as

Kate Harlow:

soon as you close your eyes and connect your truth is right

Kate Harlow:

there. It's just, it's just waiting for you don't need to

Kate Harlow:

know the 10 million steps you're going to take or how you're

Kate Harlow:

going to get there, but the desires and the the things that

Kate Harlow:

are no longer serving you and no longer a lot in alignment are

Kate Harlow:

right there, and all we have to do is get quiet.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Yeah, and that's the thing is, some people

Juliana Spicoluk:

sometimes look at the idea of, like, yoga and wellness, like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

oh, well, I just have, I don't have enough time in my day. But

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's like, you don't even need an hour. Like, I have two kids.

Juliana Spicoluk:

I can't tell you that I have an hour for myself. Sometimes all I

Juliana Spicoluk:

get is 1520 minutes, but I will find that time, and I'll just do

Juliana Spicoluk:

a very quick yoga practice, five minute breath. That's it. That's

Juliana Spicoluk:

all I got today. Maybe tomorrow I'll have a little bit more, but

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's really not in the quantity, but it's in the quality. And you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, in our app, we have everything from five minutes to

Juliana Spicoluk:

32 hour long practice, and really is up to the person to

Juliana Spicoluk:

decide what their life allows in that moment. But what it is,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's it's just giving yourself an opportunity to connect to

Juliana Spicoluk:

your heart and to your soul, if not your head. That's always

Juliana Spicoluk:

racing 1000 miles an hour, but it's your heart, and it's to

Juliana Spicoluk:

quiet the mind for a moment, and that's where the truth really

Juliana Spicoluk:

can speak to and and I see it all the time, just even from

Juliana Spicoluk:

hearing people's stories, or from even seeing what I've

Juliana Spicoluk:

noticed as a teacher in a physical form, in a classes, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

give people opportunity to find that space inside their heart,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and they'll a lot of times have like an emotional release, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

you see them start to cry. You see people starting to to feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

something even in that short amount of time, and it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful, and it's something we should never suppress. Like, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, if you feel the urge to cry, when you find that

Juliana Spicoluk:

stillness silence, even if you go in nature, do it because it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

your nervous system that is regulating, that is your body

Juliana Spicoluk:

needing to release whatever energy, what is around and that

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're storing it. Because if you don't, like I said before this,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and it's energy can't be destroyed, right? Like it just

Juliana Spicoluk:

goes and you have to, you have to move it. And so if we're not

Juliana Spicoluk:

able to move it out of our heart space, out of our body, whether

Juliana Spicoluk:

that is, you know, anxiety, stress, all of those things, it

Juliana Spicoluk:

will find a home, and it will manifest itself in your body and

Juliana Spicoluk:

come out through back ache or pain. Pain or worse, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

some kind of illness. And so that self care is crucial, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

that is actually the first step before you do anything else or

Juliana Spicoluk:

change your life in any way. Is actually prioritize wherever you

Juliana Spicoluk:

live, 1520, half an hour a day to just whether it is yoga,

Juliana Spicoluk:

breath work, meditation or maybe a workout. Some people really

Juliana Spicoluk:

need to release that energy, or even sometimes, I say, just go

Juliana Spicoluk:

in nature. You don't have time. You have a dog. Go walk your dog

Juliana Spicoluk:

and connect, you know. And just like without your phone, yes,

Juliana Spicoluk:

exactly. Leave the phone behind, just for that half an hour.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Don't look at the email, don't check your text messages, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

just breathe and listen to the wind and feel the rays of the

Juliana Spicoluk:

sun on your skin, and just connect with that energy,

Juliana Spicoluk:

because it is around us, like divinity, like that. It's here,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's it's inside of ourselves. It's everywhere. But we just we

Juliana Spicoluk:

disconnect from it because there's so much noise, like our

Juliana Spicoluk:

lives are so busy and they're and if we don't find to connect

Juliana Spicoluk:

to it. We just keep getting more and more dragged into the noise

Juliana Spicoluk:

and chaos of our of our life, and then you start to feel more

Juliana Spicoluk:

and more lost. And so I find that even that first step of

Juliana Spicoluk:

just finding daily ways to connect to your heart will start

Juliana Spicoluk:

to slowly build little, tiny, micro steps to a greater

Juliana Spicoluk:

understanding of what is it that you really want, and what is it

Juliana Spicoluk:

that you really need in your life and feel connected to, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

what is it that you need to let go of? And, yeah, more nourish

Juliana Spicoluk:

more. You know, because, like you said, like you work with a

Juliana Spicoluk:

lot of women that are like, should I stay? Should I go? Do I

Juliana Spicoluk:

feel? You know, what do I do, and especially at a specific

Juliana Spicoluk:

time in our lives and circumstances? You know, whether

Juliana Spicoluk:

that is for relationships or whatever it is, it's a really

Juliana Spicoluk:

difficult either question to start to ask yourself, like, do

Juliana Spicoluk:

I feel like I'm growing in this relationship? Do I feel like I

Juliana Spicoluk:

am really living my truth, or am I just reacting to what I'm

Juliana Spicoluk:

supposed to do? And you know that question itself can be even

Juliana Spicoluk:

a scary one that people avoid to ask because you're afraid of

Juliana Spicoluk:

what the answer would be. Because if some of that the

Juliana Spicoluk:

truth or the answer might come up, that may be a difficult one,

Juliana Spicoluk:

right? But, yeah, I think it's like I said before. It's, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, we need to always prioritize our own well being

Juliana Spicoluk:

and our growth, our soul evolution. That is really why

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're here on Earth. And unfortunately, you know, it does

Juliana Spicoluk:

require, sometimes asking the difficult questions and

Juliana Spicoluk:

connecting for ourselves, and prioritizing that connection,

Juliana Spicoluk:

even if we feel like we don't have the time for

Kate Harlow:

Yeah. Well, the beauty is it just like you get

Kate Harlow:

it just gets better, like life gets so much better and richer

Kate Harlow:

and more meaningful and more satiating, more fulfilling. When

Kate Harlow:

you do create that space and and and start to operate from your

Kate Harlow:

that soul, heart space, instead of the mind it so so you'll get

Kate Harlow:

you'll get to know that right now i It's so much easier for me

Kate Harlow:

to make big decisions and take risks and let things go, let

Kate Harlow:

relationships go, let apartments go, let places go, step into new

Kate Harlow:

possibilities. Because I know, even if that ends up being, like

Kate Harlow:

we talked about earlier, a stepping stone, I know it's a

Kate Harlow:

calling right now, and I know that it's just going to be even

Kate Harlow:

juicier, even better, like there's always more of ourselves

Kate Harlow:

to experience, and more of life to experience, and also just

Kate Harlow:

just thinking about how freaking cool it is the body's

Kate Harlow:

intelligence, like how amazing that we have this body that's

Kate Harlow:

always talking to us, and it never stops. Worst case

Kate Harlow:

scenario, and you get some crazy disease your body is you're on

Kate Harlow:

your side. And I think how many, how many women, especially, are

Kate Harlow:

at war with our bodies when our bodies just want to help us.

Kate Harlow:

They're literally our guides. Like, hey, no, don't go to don't

Kate Harlow:

walk in that room. Don't go on a date with that guy. Don't, you

Kate Harlow:

know, don't. Don't stay another day in this job that is

Kate Harlow:

suffocating you. Our bodies are so highly intelligent and

Kate Harlow:

connected to the to the bigger life that we're meant to

Kate Harlow:

experience, the more expanded life that we're meant to

Kate Harlow:

experience. So that's so cool.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Oh, it's, it's incredible, like the

Juliana Spicoluk:

intelligence of your body. It's, um, you know, for me, I the what

Juliana Spicoluk:

I really made me realize. I mean, obviously, I've read so

Juliana Spicoluk:

much of it in books. I actually there's another beautiful book

Juliana Spicoluk:

called Body Keeps the Score by another. I don't know if you've

Juliana Spicoluk:

heard of it. It's, it's quite an old book, but it talks about

Juliana Spicoluk:

how, like, our body literally Keeps the Score of like, every

Juliana Spicoluk:

traumatic experience, whether it's even traumatic or not,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, whatever way you label that it, it's, it takes us for

Juliana Spicoluk:

and it's like we have to find ways to to work with the energy

Juliana Spicoluk:

to release it. But I was saying to go back to, you know, the

Juliana Spicoluk:

most transformative ways for me to realize the power of our

Juliana Spicoluk:

bodies is when I was, you know, giving birth. I had two natural

Juliana Spicoluk:

births with my kids, and to see, like, I can't even explain it,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, how. How intelligent the female body is. It's like, it

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, you don't do anything. You're just, like, stepping

Juliana Spicoluk:

aside, and it like, knows, like a contraction and all the things

Juliana Spicoluk:

of like, it's literally bringing life into this world. And it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

doing it without your mind. It's doing it without your head, also

Kate Harlow:

making the baby. It's like, it's making body

Kate Harlow:

parts

Juliana Spicoluk:

growing, growing lungs, like you're,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, literally, like having growing a nervous system right

Juliana Spicoluk:

in your belt, like in your uterus, like it's, it's really

Juliana Spicoluk:

freaking incredible. And we have to, I almost, like, remember

Juliana Spicoluk:

that whether you know women are our mothers or not, or they

Juliana Spicoluk:

choose to have children or not, it's like, you see that process

Juliana Spicoluk:

right there, of like bringing life into this world, the body

Juliana Spicoluk:

has been designed and programmed by not humans, divinity, by God,

Juliana Spicoluk:

by existence, to be able to have the strength and the

Juliana Spicoluk:

intelligence to create. Literally, it's a miracle, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

it bringing life into this world. And so like to know that.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Then we also have to remember that. Then it will signal and

Juliana Spicoluk:

tell you when something is not aligned anymore with with your

Juliana Spicoluk:

well being like it will speak to you. It's just really a matter

Juliana Spicoluk:

of fact, if you choose to listen to it, or you choose to put it

Juliana Spicoluk:

aside and ignore it, but over and over again, it will continue

Juliana Spicoluk:

to give you a little sign, and the signs will start to get

Juliana Spicoluk:

stronger, stronger the more you ignore them, right? It's like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

slowly it'll just be a tap on your shoulder, and then it'll be

Juliana Spicoluk:

a hit on the head, and it'll be a break on your head. You know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's like, it's good to keep trying to get your attention

Juliana Spicoluk:

until you listen and but I think, you know, a mindful

Juliana Spicoluk:

practice of self care is the first step in helping you kind

Juliana Spicoluk:

of reconnect to that connection, like that telephone wire with

Juliana Spicoluk:

your body and your mind, to try and connect to it and listen to

Juliana Spicoluk:

what it actually feels and what it needs. And that, I think, as

Juliana Spicoluk:

we prioritize it and we start to take care of our bodies, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

start to feel better in your mind. You prioritize that mind

Juliana Spicoluk:

body connection, and slowly, things just start to kind of

Juliana Spicoluk:

move in that direction. And one little baby step at a time,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it'll unfold the way it's supposed to. And then you feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

more stronger and more confident to even speak your truth, and,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, voice your truth. And that's something, you know, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

struggled a lot with, you know, for a long time, because I, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, I was raised, I come from Ukraine, right? So, like, I was

Juliana Spicoluk:

raised in a very like Soviet Union type of way, where, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, like, as though, as a girl too, like you don't speak, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

listen, you take, like rules, like everything is so one way,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and as a woman as well, in that culture, it's like, no, no, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

don't have a voice. You you do what you're told, kind of thing.

Juliana Spicoluk:

And so that's been programmed from a very, very early age in

Juliana Spicoluk:

my mind, and slowly, obviously, living the life that I have now.

Juliana Spicoluk:

It also was a lot of work to start to deprogram that, and I

Juliana Spicoluk:

still, you know, struggle through activating my throat

Juliana Spicoluk:

chakra to be able to voice certain things that I feel that

Juliana Spicoluk:

sometimes are scary or maybe a little bit more intimidating to

Juliana Spicoluk:

speak about it. It's a work in progress, but, you know, it just

Juliana Spicoluk:

shows that, like it's it requires work. None of it is

Juliana Spicoluk:

going to be a step of a fingers. Be like, Okay, now I'm ready.

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm going to speak my truth. It's like, Well, are you? Are

Juliana Spicoluk:

you able to really connect to that truth? Are you able to, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, understand of what that will open up for you when you

Juliana Spicoluk:

are ready to commit to walking that path, that unscripted path,

Juliana Spicoluk:

as you say, right? Because that also will require you having to

Juliana Spicoluk:

realign your path with the right people, because there's so many

Juliana Spicoluk:

people in your life that may not agree with it, that may not

Juliana Spicoluk:

support it, that may actually try to scare you from it,

Juliana Spicoluk:

especially like I was saying, it's like, if you're surrounded

Juliana Spicoluk:

by other people that are living that life, that are maybe stuck

Juliana Spicoluk:

and not listening to themselves, when they see somebody else

Juliana Spicoluk:

trying to, you know, change or find a different path, Like

Juliana Spicoluk:

maybe, what are you doing? You know, because they themselves.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Everything is a reflection, right? It's a personal

Juliana Spicoluk:

reflection. They're reflecting what you're you're trying to do

Juliana Spicoluk:

with their own life, and then they will try to convince you to

Juliana Spicoluk:

not do it, because deep down in themselves, they're too scared

Juliana Spicoluk:

of themselves, you know. And I saw it a lot when Mark and I

Juliana Spicoluk:

started going on our path, you know, I but I lost a lot of

Juliana Spicoluk:

friends. I had to let go of a lot of people in my life because

Juliana Spicoluk:

I knew that their energy wasn't serving the truth that I was

Juliana Spicoluk:

ready to walk towards. And that's also part of it, right?

Juliana Spicoluk:

It's

Kate Harlow:

just like so part of it, I mean,

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm sure you can relate as well. Probably had

Juliana Spicoluk:

to

Juliana Spicoluk:

yeah

Kate Harlow:

time, but I just there was this line, the full

Kate Harlow:

moon that just happened. There was this line, the Scorpio Full

Kate Harlow:

Moon on the on my birthday, on the 12th, the last line, it was

Kate Harlow:

so poignant. It said, You will never go back to the person that

Kate Harlow:

you were, and it will be the best thing that ever happened to

Kate Harlow:

you. And so our fear. Or wants to hold on to what was like we

Kate Harlow:

talked about with the death and rebirth our fear. Wants to hold

Kate Harlow:

on to all those people. Wants to hold on, wants to make everyone

Kate Harlow:

happy. We're so and as women, just so taught to please

Kate Harlow:

everyone else and not ruffle feathers, not cause, but like

Kate Harlow:

I'm so. I love how you phrase that. It's the reflection of

Kate Harlow:

them, and you know, once you can really, really anchor into other

Kate Harlow:

people's opinions of you, perspectives, their judgments,

Kate Harlow:

their their fears, aren't about you anyways, like they're not

Kate Harlow:

about you and and and on my path, I'm sure you can say the

Kate Harlow:

same. It's been like, the more I stand rooted in my own truth,

Kate Harlow:

the less people challenge me. They're just you now. They're

Kate Harlow:

using the ones who are still in my life like family, and the

Kate Harlow:

ones that they might not be living the same path as me, but

Kate Harlow:

they love me now for all of who I am and the crazy in their mind

Kate Harlow:

choices. Because they're just like, oh yeah, that's just Kate.

Kate Harlow:

Whereas when I first started following my truth, they were

Kate Harlow:

like, no, no. They would tell me what to do. They would give me

Kate Harlow:

advice, because that's how my patterns had it set up, right?

Kate Harlow:

Like, yeah, because they weren't used to that, and it was, of

Kate Harlow:

course, reflecting their own fear. But now, the ones that

Kate Harlow:

have stuck around, and many fell away that weren't aligned, but,

Kate Harlow:

but, but mostly, I'm talking about family that just like, Are

Kate Harlow:

there no matter what they're Yeah. They just see like, oh,

Kate Harlow:

that's they accept it now. Like, nobody was surprised that I

Kate Harlow:

didn't get vaccinated. Nobody's surprised that I went to Costa

Kate Harlow:

Rica in the middle of the pandemic, that I'm then when I

Kate Harlow:

moved to Greece. They're like, Oh, yeah, this game. Like, if I

Kate Harlow:

became a lesbian, like, nobody would be surprised. They're

Kate Harlow:

like, yeah, she's just doing her thing. Like, you know

Juliana Spicoluk:

what? Are true? Yeah,

Kate Harlow:

yeah. So it's like, the more we do it, the more the

Kate Harlow:

world around us. And I think really, it's comes down to the

Kate Harlow:

more we internally, like, are really so rooted in our truth

Kate Harlow:

that we're no longer willing to sacrifice our own truth for

Kate Harlow:

everyone else's experience,

Juliana Spicoluk:

exactly. And you'll kind of stop caring as

Juliana Spicoluk:

well. You're like you stop caring. Yes, you stop caring

Juliana Spicoluk:

what they think, because it doesn't really matter, because

Juliana Spicoluk:

this is your life, and their opinions of you isn't going to

Juliana Spicoluk:

really change. You know what you're going to continue onward

Juliana Spicoluk:

with and your path. So whether they agree with you or disagree

Juliana Spicoluk:

with you, it doesn't really matter, because if they don't

Juliana Spicoluk:

agree with you, then they're not meant to be in your life

Juliana Spicoluk:

anymore, and that's okay. And it's not like a a negative, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, terrible thing. It's just the way life goes. We're not

Juliana Spicoluk:

always going to be connected with the same people forever.

Juliana Spicoluk:

It's like every person serves a purpose, and sometimes that is a

Juliana Spicoluk:

chapter in your life. Maybe that's a lesson. Maybe it's it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

a beautiful relationship for a moment, and then you have to let

Juliana Spicoluk:

that relationship go. Because you're, you're, you're all

Juliana Spicoluk:

beings, your own soul, you're all, we're all traveling in our

Juliana Spicoluk:

own path, and that's okay, you know, and difficult as it is

Juliana Spicoluk:

sometimes to admit to that of losing your friends or, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, relationship and such, it's, it is just the way of

Juliana Spicoluk:

life, and it just, it's, it's our journey, and it's, it's the

Juliana Spicoluk:

lessons in itself, right?

Kate Harlow:

And it's so worth it when the aligned people come

Kate Harlow:

in, right? Like, where it's easy and it's, it's you're on the, I

Kate Harlow:

think of my favorite metaphor lately is the radio channels,

Kate Harlow:

like, you're on the same radio, and there's no static. It's

Kate Harlow:

just, like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

totally Yeah, friction, yes,

Kate Harlow:

and you don't, and then

Juliana Spicoluk:

you don't have to, like, hold yourself back. I

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, I found I became really aware of this lately.

Juliana Spicoluk:

It's like, when I've been in a in an environment or a group

Juliana Spicoluk:

setting, I guess, with different individuals and people that are

Juliana Spicoluk:

maybe not on that same radio frequency as me, I find myself

Juliana Spicoluk:

so, like, held back because I'm so afraid to, like, Oh, can I

Juliana Spicoluk:

say this? Or can I not say this? Maybe they don't, they'll think

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm crazy if I say it this way, and it's like, it's so draining

Juliana Spicoluk:

to a point where, like, now I'm like, I avoid people like that.

Juliana Spicoluk:

I don't even want to be surrounded because my time and

Juliana Spicoluk:

my life is so limited right now. I have so much going on that if

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm going to commit to a social gathering or social event, I

Juliana Spicoluk:

wanted to be around people where I can be myself, and I can open

Juliana Spicoluk:

and I can feel comfortable in a very loving, held space where

Juliana Spicoluk:

everyone's aligned on the same rape frequency, you know. And so

Juliana Spicoluk:

I choose to find those people and to surround myself with

Juliana Spicoluk:

those people, because that's what it is. And then I'm so

Juliana Spicoluk:

grateful for that, you know. And I'm saying even here, like in

Juliana Spicoluk:

Barbados, I'm so grateful that we started to find the little

Juliana Spicoluk:

families and individuals that are very like minded and

Juliana Spicoluk:

connected in that same frequency. Because, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's, it's a beautiful thing to find your tribe, and it

Juliana Spicoluk:

sometimes takes a whole life to find that, right, so

Kate Harlow:

totally and it, yeah, it's like, it's going to

Kate Harlow:

be your future self will thank you. This is going to feel way

Kate Harlow:

better than what what you currently have those friendships

Kate Harlow:

where you have to hold yourself back or fight or or leave

Kate Harlow:

something drained and exhausted or defeated, or whatever the

Kate Harlow:

thing might be like that. Your your future aligned friendships

Kate Harlow:

are going to feel so much better than that. So it's going to be

Kate Harlow:

so worth it. And. Yeah, I was just, oh my gosh, have you met

Kate Harlow:

Scott? Yeah, the chiropractor. Scott, chiropractor, we'll talk

Kate Harlow:

about it later. My old, old, like, very old dear friend. I

Kate Harlow:

haven't talked to him in years, moved to Barbados, and he's

Kate Harlow:

still there, and he's a chiropractor,

Juliana Spicoluk:

so we'll talk about it. Yeah, I'd love to meet

Juliana Spicoluk:

him chiropractor, too. It's always nice to find a good

Kate Harlow:

chiropractor. Yes, He's amazing. He's been doing it

Kate Harlow:

forever, and he's a phenomenal guy. So yeah, have to connect

Kate Harlow:

you too. But yeah, it's it's it. I love all of this. It's like

Kate Harlow:

the body most important thing. You gotta really shift the

Kate Harlow:

relationship with the body and have a reverent, loving,

Kate Harlow:

harmonious relationship with your body, because she's going

Kate Harlow:

to lead you to your truth, and then from the truth it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

and then life will unfold and in the way it

Juliana Spicoluk:

should be. And then, you know, and that that's that next

Juliana Spicoluk:

component, is that trust right through all of this, and also

Juliana Spicoluk:

holding that trust in whatever you label it, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

divinity, God, universe, whatever it is to that to you,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but having trust that you are guided in that way, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and I and every time I remember, I felt lost in my life, you know

Juliana Spicoluk:

what I mean? Or like these periods of my life where I feel

Juliana Spicoluk:

kind of disconnected, or just, yeah, in a tougher place,

Juliana Spicoluk:

there's always like, these, um, sorry, these beautiful mantras

Juliana Spicoluk:

that I come back to, and one of them, it always is just closing

Juliana Spicoluk:

your eyes and connecting to that you're like, I'm guided. I am

Juliana Spicoluk:

protected. I am guided. And just repeating that in your mind. Or,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, there's, there's many variations, and I have a few

Juliana Spicoluk:

meditations on our app that deal with those type of energies and

Juliana Spicoluk:

intentions. But yeah, it's reminding yourself that even in

Juliana Spicoluk:

those like really difficult moments, that you are guided,

Juliana Spicoluk:

even if you don't see it, there is there is an energy that

Juliana Spicoluk:

pushes us and protects us in this life and gives us the the

Juliana Spicoluk:

difficult challenges, but also beautiful, expansive

Juliana Spicoluk:

opportunities for the growth of our of our life, for our soul to

Juliana Spicoluk:

to live, and we're here to live, right? That's why we aren't

Juliana Spicoluk:

incarnated in these bodies, so we can have these experiences

Kate Harlow:

Exactly. And what else is the point? Like, we're

Kate Harlow:

not here to just, I mean, you can choose a mundane life, you

Kate Harlow:

can choose a numb life. You can choose a scripted not your

Kate Harlow:

desire, not your not aligned. But it's so much more painful.

Kate Harlow:

And people are so afraid of the fear of taking the risk to

Kate Harlow:

follow their hearts. But it's like the only part that's

Kate Harlow:

painful is really make like you said. It's making the decision,

Kate Harlow:

like, once you once you make the decision, it's so beautiful.

Juliana Spicoluk:

And you know, what else is more painful is

Juliana Spicoluk:

regret, is one day waking up and feeling like, I should have done

Juliana Spicoluk:

this, I should have made that step, I should have tried or

Juliana Spicoluk:

just took that risk. And, you know, one day it could be too

Juliana Spicoluk:

late, you know, maybe one day you're too old, or, God forbid,

Juliana Spicoluk:

something else happens, you know, with your body, sickness

Juliana Spicoluk:

and illness, and that is the biggest fear, I think, is to

Juliana Spicoluk:

regret that you didn't try. And so while you can, and while you

Juliana Spicoluk:

have the opportunity and the health and and the, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

possibility, to do it, why not? Because, like I said, there

Juliana Spicoluk:

really there's nothing to lose. You can always go back to the

Juliana Spicoluk:

scripted way of living. It's easy, you know, can find it. You

Juliana Spicoluk:

can, you know, do the same thing, but one day, it could

Juliana Spicoluk:

become too late for you to explore what life could be if

Juliana Spicoluk:

you follow your heart and you connect to your heart and allow

Juliana Spicoluk:

that truth to guide you forward, and because when you make that

Juliana Spicoluk:

first step, then you really don't know what people and what

Juliana Spicoluk:

opportunities will open themselves up to you and unfold

Juliana Spicoluk:

in front of your eyes that will then make you look back and

Juliana Spicoluk:

connect all the dots and be like, Wow, this is crazy. I'm so

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, lucky and happy that I listened to my my own, my own

Juliana Spicoluk:

truth, you know, and I listened to my heart and I and I faced

Juliana Spicoluk:

that fear, because look at the life that has presented itself,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, like, look at yourself like you're moving to Kenya.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Like, have you ever wondered, like, be living Kenya? Like, do

Juliana Spicoluk:

you remember yourself like two years ago, last time I spoke to

Juliana Spicoluk:

you definitely that was never in the conversation. But, like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

look at what you know you you had this beautiful relationship,

Juliana Spicoluk:

and you know, it's done its chapter and its thing, but it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

like all the little steps have brought you to where you are

Juliana Spicoluk:

now, creating these beautiful relationships and opportunities

Juliana Spicoluk:

for yourself to make a life in Africa, like, amazing. It's

Juliana Spicoluk:

incredible, you know, and you're coming soon.

Kate Harlow:

I can't wait to visit you. It's, um, I love what

Kate Harlow:

you said about connecting the dots, because it's like, that's

Kate Harlow:

the cool thing about when you look back to the unscripted

Kate Harlow:

life, is this is like, oh, had I not. Like, had my friend Mariana

Kate Harlow:

not gone to that party and met that guy that was like, Oh, you

Kate Harlow:

do retreats. Like, you gotta go to retreat in London, and you

Kate Harlow:

gotta go to do a retreat at this place called Ola pangi farm in

Kate Harlow:

Kenya. And like, she wasn't on her radar. And then she's like,

Kate Harlow:

we're going to Kenya. And then, like, you know, I just think of

Kate Harlow:

all the divine moments and divine connections, not just for

Kate Harlow:

me, not just for her, for all the women I've brought to Kenya

Kate Harlow:

and then their magical journeys and lives and connections and

Kate Harlow:

love stories and things that have unfolded from that place,

Kate Harlow:

like when we follow our hearts and our truths that like that,

Kate Harlow:

you get to go back and connect the dots and see like it's

Kate Harlow:

amazing this person, if I didn't take that risk, if I didn't get

Kate Harlow:

on that plane, if I didn't have that uncomfortable conversation.

Kate Harlow:

I didn't let that thing go,

Juliana Spicoluk:

yeah, yeah. It's incredible. And then again,

Juliana Spicoluk:

that reminds you of that whole idea. It's like we are guided.

Juliana Spicoluk:

In a way, there is no guidance. Energy that is guiding us is

Juliana Spicoluk:

just, you know, we do also have free will. So in a sense, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, you do have the choice to go to that party or not. You do

Juliana Spicoluk:

have a choice to get on the plane or not. It's really up to

Juliana Spicoluk:

you. But if you, you know, look a little deeper under that, it's

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, wow. The all of the things at the right place happen, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, you met that right person, because you're meant to be going

Juliana Spicoluk:

here, something in your soul is guiding you from this journey to

Juliana Spicoluk:

experience whatever is out there for you, and you and you have no

Juliana Spicoluk:

idea what's out there for you. It could be incredible, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know, or it could be short lived. You have no idea, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

know,

Kate Harlow:

and not attached, trusting that too, trusting that

Kate Harlow:

it could be a stepping stone, or that it could be exactly a

Kate Harlow:

longer place, or it's all, yeah, none of us know the rest is

Kate Harlow:

unwritten. I love that, that song, the rest is still

Kate Harlow:

unwritten. Yeah, we don't know what's coming, but yeah, our the

Kate Harlow:

more we follow our hearts and our truths, the more aligned we

Kate Harlow:

become, and the more we get to live this life that feels really

Kate Harlow:

good. So I oh my gosh, this conversation is the best. I feel

Kate Harlow:

like we could jam out on this all day long. I just love you so

Kate Harlow:

much, and I'm so happy to share your energy. It's nice to just

Kate Harlow:

connect me. I loved having my country that was super fun in a

Kate Harlow:

different way, but this feels

Juliana Spicoluk:

so good. Me too, has been so lovely, and I'm

Juliana Spicoluk:

so excited to see you in July. Wonderful to spend more time

Juliana Spicoluk:

together and hang out and, yeah, and plan our our trip to Kenya.

Juliana Spicoluk:

I'm excited for this.

Kate Harlow:

Yeah, we'll map it out in July. It's, yeah, I'll

Kate Harlow:

get mark on board. I'm sure he'll be on board. It'll be no

Kate Harlow:

problem. Yeah, 100% Yeah, 100%

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're excited. So excited. It's definitely like

Juliana Spicoluk:

I said it and again, like what I was saying earlier. It's like,

Juliana Spicoluk:

it's been in my mind, it's been in there. And I just somehow,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, the right things didn't align, and all of a

Juliana Spicoluk:

sudden, you know, we reconnect, and then use something. You're

Juliana Spicoluk:

living there now, and you're like, what? Like, I literally,

Juliana Spicoluk:

I've been thinking about going to this part of the world for so

Juliana Spicoluk:

long, but, you know, I wasn't, it wasn't the time, and this is

Juliana Spicoluk:

it now, yeah, now. And everything in your life happened

Juliana Spicoluk:

to then connect, to give me that, also reassurance that it

Juliana Spicoluk:

is a good place to bring my family to as well. You know, all

Juliana Spicoluk:

of it, it's it's beautiful, so so divine. It's beautiful.

Kate Harlow:

It's so magical. So hopefully y'all are hearing the

Kate Harlow:

message so much more is possible for you. And okay, so we talked

Kate Harlow:

a lot about your app. Is there anything else you want to talk

Kate Harlow:

about? But also you can share more about the app if you want.

Kate Harlow:

What is the app? We'll link everything in the show notes,

Kate Harlow:

but just so you can say it out loud. Is it just boho beautiful?

Juliana Spicoluk:

Of course, yeah. It's called boho

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful, official, and we it's an iOS, Android app. It's also,

Juliana Spicoluk:

we have it on Roku, Apple TV. We have it on fire TV, I think, and

Juliana Spicoluk:

also desktop, and it's a beautiful hub of everything that

Juliana Spicoluk:

you need to enrich your life, enrich your physical and

Juliana Spicoluk:

spiritual component of your well being. So we have everything

Juliana Spicoluk:

from like I mentioned earlier, we have hundreds and hundreds of

Juliana Spicoluk:

yoga classes with myself, with Mark. There's also new teachers

Juliana Spicoluk:

we're bringing on. There's meditation classes, there's

Juliana Spicoluk:

breath work. There are even, you know, inspirational

Juliana Spicoluk:

conversations. There's some episodes from our podcast that

Juliana Spicoluk:

we've done before. It's everything. And you know, you

Juliana Spicoluk:

could put it on your phone, or you could plug it into your TV,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but it's a beautiful opportunity to to have a tool, and that's

Juliana Spicoluk:

what it is, giving you a tool to use to bring a little bit more

Juliana Spicoluk:

self care into your life. So, yeah, you can link it. Of

Juliana Spicoluk:

course, I'm sure it'll be somewhere people can click. But

Juliana Spicoluk:

we also have free offerings as well. We have our YouTube

Juliana Spicoluk:

channel bubble beautiful, where people can just, you know, try

Juliana Spicoluk:

out or join in on some free content. We have, again,

Juliana Spicoluk:

hundreds and hundreds of yoga classes, pilates, fitness,

Juliana Spicoluk:

meditation, everything. So happy to have people explore it and

Juliana Spicoluk:

see what connects to what they need in their life right now.

Kate Harlow:

That's perfect. I feel like last time I talked to

Kate Harlow:

you, I told you, or maybe it. This was in a voice note in

Kate Harlow:

Greece, and I live, well, obviously, you know, in Athens,

Kate Harlow:

for those of you that don't know, I was in my bedroom one

Kate Harlow:

day and I was getting ready, and I heard your voice, and I was

Kate Harlow:

like, Oh, my God, that's Juliana. The person in the

Kate Harlow:

apartment across from me was so funny classes. I don't know if

Kate Harlow:

it was an Airbnb or the girl that there's someone lives

Kate Harlow:

there, but I couldn't see who it was, but it was so ah,

Juliana Spicoluk:

that's so sweet. No, it's so incredible

Juliana Spicoluk:

that this digital world, as you were saying, like in the

Juliana Spicoluk:

beginning of our conversation, it's the fact that, you know, we

Juliana Spicoluk:

can create these videos and then put them up and then people all

Juliana Spicoluk:

over the world and be plugging in any time of the day and and

Juliana Spicoluk:

using it and taking something from it and better themselves.

Juliana Spicoluk:

It is honestly the greatest purpose and service I could have

Juliana Spicoluk:

ever asked for in this life. And I'm very, very, very, very proud

Juliana Spicoluk:

of it and grateful for it.

Kate Harlow:

That's amazing. It's so special. And obviously,

Kate Harlow:

I imagine you can feel the heart frequency of Juliana through

Kate Harlow:

this conversation. If you aren't following the app or getting I'm

Kate Harlow:

getting the app. I'm like, oh god, that's what I need. When

Kate Harlow:

I'm in Kenya, I never I have a yoga mat.

Juliana Spicoluk:

You had one? No,

Kate Harlow:

I you know, we talked about it last time, I

Kate Harlow:

don't know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

didn't give you access. Okay, well,

Juliana Spicoluk:

messaging, I think

Kate Harlow:

you maybe sent it to me and I forgot to download

Kate Harlow:

it or whatever. We'll figure it out, but I'm going to get one

Kate Harlow:

for sure. And actually, I didn't even tell you. I taught yoga in

Kate Harlow:

I just channel taught yoga in Kenya. Where's the farm? Because

Kate Harlow:

one of the girls there wanted to learn how to teach. Okay, now

Kate Harlow:

I'm a yoga teacher. She's now leading classes like she says

Kate Harlow:

she's not an official yoga teacher. Being her, did them

Kate Harlow:

together, and I led them, and we were gonna do a video on

Kate Harlow:

YouTube, but the Wi Fi didn't work. And I was like, Well,

Kate Harlow:

okay, I've done yoga for 20 years, so I could probably teach

Kate Harlow:

a class. And I just dropped in and, like, did a class also,

Kate Harlow:

wow, I channeled you. Yeah, it was super fun. But yes, like

Kate Harlow:

everything below. And thank you so much for your love

Kate Harlow:

conversation. And I feel like it's going to, yeah, I feel like

Kate Harlow:

it's going to penetrate a lot of hearts and

Juliana Spicoluk:

release a lot. So yeah, I hope so. I think this

Juliana Spicoluk:

is, this is the time in our in our world right now, is to

Juliana Spicoluk:

inspire one another and to give strength to one another, and,

Juliana Spicoluk:

you know, to show that it's possible and that this life is

Juliana Spicoluk:

worth living in the most joyful and peaceful and happiest way

Juliana Spicoluk:

that we're meant to experience it. So, you know, hold each

Juliana Spicoluk:

other strong and can do this. And I know, and I think

Juliana Spicoluk:

remembering that, I think, for anyone listening right now is

Juliana Spicoluk:

remembering that the support is there, the guidance is there,

Juliana Spicoluk:

that there's so many women and men have done this, and that

Juliana Spicoluk:

you're not alone, you know, and that's something to always

Juliana Spicoluk:

remember. You're never alone, and you can reach out to

Juliana Spicoluk:

somebody in your community or just through online communities,

Juliana Spicoluk:

but there's so many ways to feel inspired and supported in

Juliana Spicoluk:

creating change in your life. So really, only the thing that's

Juliana Spicoluk:

stopping you is is the first step in the world to really want

Juliana Spicoluk:

to change. So once that's there, that's the first step in a

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful journey ahead. So

Kate Harlow:

yeah, love it. Yeah. Maybe, maybe inside of the

Kate Harlow:

new truth movement Facebook group, just inspiring any of you

Kate Harlow:

who are in there to just start, like, commit to 30 days with

Kate Harlow:

Juliana on Bucha, beautiful, and whoever, and like, doing

Kate Harlow:

something every day. Oh yeah, days that'll be able to have

Juliana Spicoluk:

it. We actually have every January. We

Juliana Spicoluk:

would release 30 days, 31 days. And so now we have that saved.

Juliana Spicoluk:

So it doesn't have to be January, but anybody that wants,

Juliana Spicoluk:

like a challenge or something, we have them on the app. You

Juliana Spicoluk:

just log in and you see it, and it'll give you exact, you know,

Juliana Spicoluk:

practice. And the last time we did it, there was a different

Juliana Spicoluk:

intention for every single day to help you, not just like

Juliana Spicoluk:

physically, but also spiritually, to to embody a

Juliana Spicoluk:

different component of a spiritual practice into your

Juliana Spicoluk:

life. And so that's always a great way, like challenges like

Juliana Spicoluk:

that, that hold you accountable, not just having to kind of

Juliana Spicoluk:

everyday, scroll and look for something, but to be like, okay,

Juliana Spicoluk:

day two, day three, day four. And then you feel like motivated

Juliana Spicoluk:

to to complete, you know, 31 days. And it's crazy to see when

Juliana Spicoluk:

you actually do yoga for 31 days straight, how you start to

Juliana Spicoluk:

change the habitual, you know, chemistry in your brain, like

Juliana Spicoluk:

the basal ganglia, and things like, you start to crave it

Juliana Spicoluk:

after you like, oh, I one day without yoga or movement, you're

Juliana Spicoluk:

like, something feels off, like you're starting to create a

Juliana Spicoluk:

beautiful new habits in

Kate Harlow:

your life totally. And it feels like yoga feels

Kate Harlow:

like it's a shower on the inside when you're by the time you get

Kate Harlow:

to the end, good, yeah, that's what it feels like, where it's

Kate Harlow:

like you're not only like reworking your energy and your

Kate Harlow:

physical body, but the inside, there's this internal shift that

Kate Harlow:

happens. I had goosebumps when you said that, imagining what it

Kate Harlow:

would feel like after that much, and even devoting yourself in

Kate Harlow:

that way and proving to yourself that you can ever. Everyone can,

Kate Harlow:

we might, but you can, yeah,

Juliana Spicoluk:

yeah, you can find that 20 minutes, 30 minutes

Juliana Spicoluk:

a day, yeah, to dedicate

Kate Harlow:

to yourself. It's possible, yeah, take 30 minutes

Kate Harlow:

off of scrolling on Instagram or Tiktok or whatever other things

Kate Harlow:

you distract yourself with, and there you go. You probably have

Kate Harlow:

hours on your hands.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Very true, very true. Yeah? Love

Kate Harlow:

it. All right. Well, thank you so much

Kate Harlow:

beautiful. And as always, yeah, so fun. And as always, share

Kate Harlow:

this episode with every woman you know who needs to meet

Kate Harlow:

Juliana conversation and every woman who wants to burn the

Kate Harlow:

script and and live a life from the heart and soul.

Juliana Spicoluk:

Love it. Thank you for having me here. The

Kate Harlow:

best so fun. Thank.
