Magic Mondays with Jennifer Farner

Procrastination, roadblocks, self sabotage, oh my! This week we explore how the things that you think are blocking you usually aren't really the problem at all. Sometimes our body is sending signals to switch gears and often there is a deeper layer of outdated subconscious programs. I had an experience this week where this showed up and I share the process I used to move through my emotions and uncover a big block I've had for over a decade. 

And of course the weekly Divine Feminine Oracle card draw! 

Is 2022 the year you break out of the box & start doing life YOUR way? We are all uniquely designed - with different strengths, gifts and ways of seeing the world. Problem is, sometimes we fight against these, feeling somehow not enough or that we don't measure up so we attempt to fit ourselves into a box that makes us fit in with the rest. But what if stepped out of the safety of that box and stepped into who you are & your unique way of doing things?  

In this episode, I reflect on the lessons of 2021. In particular, the insights on the boxes, structures and rules that have held me in back and what has  helped me to give myself permission to break free. We also chat a little about - the akashic records, Bali, astrology and harnessing your feminine power.

To add to the fun, at the very end of the episode, I've drawn and Oracle Card from the Divine Feminine Oracle deck by Meggan Watterson.

My kids reminded me that today it's only 5 days until Christmas! They also remind me of the joy, the wonder & the magic of this holiday. Today's episode I share my thoughts on the season as well as creating new traditions & finding joy even through the heaviness.

*The quotes shared toward the end are from Dale Evans and Calvin Coolidge respectively.

Do you ever find pennies in random places? Do you pass them by or make you pause and smile? It seems like there is an epidemic of loneliness, of feeling as though we are alone carrying the weight of the world, our problems, our grief and our pain. In today's episode, we explore the unseen support & love that is around each and every one of us and how to begin to see it. 

A great artist knows how important using color, shading, and shadows are to making their art come alive. There is an art to life. Mastering that art comes from stepping back to see the bigger picture as well as learning to see the role that both the light & dark play to make that picture. Today's episode we explore this a little deeper. 

Have you ever noticed how your children can get so facisnated by something so simple? The world seems to fall away as they focus in on whatever has caught their attention (like making fingerprints on clean glass). If you are feeling stuck in life, how do you open up to more opportunities and possibilities? Maybe the answer is as a simple as using your imagination to tap into your inner magic. 

This isn't about physical masks, it's about the ones we can't always see that help us to fit in, to feel like we belong. The masks that hide our insecurities or parts of ourselves we are afraid to show the world. The ones that become a part of our identity. But there comes a point in life when it's time to take off the mask, reconnect with who you are inside and see your own beauty. 

Trust is the foundation of any relationship..including your relationship with yourself. Trusting yourself can be one of the most difficult things to do but it is key to tapping into your inner magic, feeling vibrant and living a life that feeds your soul keeps your inner flame burning bright.  We are taught from a young age that other people know more than we do so we learn to question our gut feelings, ignore our body's signals, and tune out our inner guidance. Today's episode explores how you can begin to rebuild your self-trust because you are worth trusting. 

Our jobs, responsibilities, and life can sometimes drag us down draining our energy leaving us feeling resentful, frustrated and exhausted. But what if life was easy and fun? What if you gave yourself permission to let it be easy? Today's episode explores this possibility.  

"You can live life two ways - one as though everything is a miracle and the other as if nothing is a miracle"   - Albert Einstein. This week we explore shifting perspective & feeling more empowered in life, particularly when things are happening that are out of your control. 

Welcome to Magic Mondays. I'm Jennifer Farner, a former private banker turned transformational coach and retreat leader, a mom of three and your hostess of this podcast. Magic Mondays is all about remembering and returning to the magic and the wonder in everyday life - because god knows we could all use a little more magic in our lives, especially on Monday mornings! Being a mom, and just an adult in general, can be really hard and heavy sometimes. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the stress and the weight of your responsibilities in your day to day life so much so that you lose sight of what's truly important to you. That inner fire, the passion you used to have for life starts to fade and you start to just check out a little just going through the motions. Over time you lose touch with who you are, why you're here, and what matters most to you. And when that happens, that sense of joy and that feeling of vibrancy, and aliveness just isn't there anymore. This podcast is all about remembering tapping back into the wonder and the magic that you used to see inside yourself and in the world around you. It's about learning how to tap into that so that you can reignite that flame inside of you and find that balance between fun and playfulness with the responsibilities of being an adult. Because when you find that balance, as a mom, as a parent, when you're able to play and have fun in a way that nourishes your soul and is true to who you are - you're a better mom, you show up differently in your communities, with your kids, in your career, and your relationships.
