When Mother Nature is upset she flares up and rages hailstorms and tsunami’s.
I can be like that & I bet you can, too!
As women our emotions run deep & wild like the ocean, & sometimes it takes an emotional storm to help clear the air about what we really feel…
I recently had to navigate through my own emotional storm when I sent out the last email to my community of thousands, & only a HANDFUL of you replied!
I wasn’t selling anything- it was a personal INVITATION to share with me what you Dreamed of so I could plan how to support you in that…
And when only a few of you responded I was confused & disappointed and felt like something was very wrong…
After soul searching & detoxing those feelings I put my hand over my heart asking how was this experience leading me to MY Dreams…
…I experienced a BIG breakthrough that is going to change EVERYTHING around here that I MUST share with you!
As you know my intention is always to offer VALUABLE content through my blog, ezine, products and videos- & that won’t change.
I will continue to create beautiful, fun & sexy offeringst because I understand going Raw can feel overwhelming & mysterious at first; I want to inspire you to be high Raw by making it accessible & pleasurable!
Well, I feel it’s time to share what it REALLY takes to be Raw- to have glowing health & that level of vibrancy & energy I know you need to live the life you really want!
It takes FIERCENESS & UNBELIEVABLE COMMITTMENT.
Yes. Breathe that in.
That is why we admire famous people, iconic celebrities & olympic athletes- they exude those qualities; they pull us forward inspiring us to reach higher & live OUR essence.
Being Raw, having vibrant, glowing health, a beautiful body, intimate relationships, a clear, uncluttered mind & a life we love filled with beauty & purpose is a truly RARE feat.
It’s what so many of us want, but not everyone will play full out to have it!
This will discourage alot of people, because this path isn’t for everyone.
It’s the path of an empress, a goddess, an Icon. It is a path for the elite.
To be royal, regal, iconic & live your legend requires more than what most people are willing to do.
Not everyone will live out their Dreams- what about YOU?
If you TRULY want more out of your life, it takes more than wishing, excuses or giving in to what husbands or others think!
I wasn’t going to tell you this…but I know you trust me & I feel this is important for you to embrace.
Changing our diet or body or health or life is NOT effortless- ESPECIALLY as we flower into our 40’s and 50’s and beyond.
It takes having the leading edge information then APPLYING it to YOUR life. And this takes a strong vision, fearlessness, claiming it and taking inspired action everyday.
This is what Transformation requires.
There’s a lot of TALK about transformation, but the reality of going through any transformation is what every butterfly knows; that struggle is part of the process needed to transform into something unrecognizably BEAUTIFUL.
This is the dark side of transformation and going Raw for that matter- and why it isn’t for everyone. It takes going deep to walk the path of an empress, live your Dreams, be an Icon & live the life you truly desire.
WHEN I WENT RAW 12 years ago, I reclaimed my health & beauty & am more & more discovering & embodying my unique essence; I went from Plain Jane to being the Goddess I always dreamed of becoming.
And I want to show other budding goddesses, icons and superstar women how to step into THEIR transformation.
This feels edgy, but I am stepping into the full level of my brand now, & the WHOLE picture of what it takes to be an Earth Empress has to be included now.
I am playing at Icon Goddess level now. So can you!
This recent experience opened my eyes and heart to fully embrace who I am really meant to work with- the inspired few of you who are committed to your path, eager to invest in yourself to go to Olympian Red Carpet Nobel Prize Super Stardom level in your life.
I thought I was here to serve a world of women but I realise I am here to serve only one woman- myself, to do what moves & inspires me. And through living my Legacy I know I will automatically serve others who want to live theirs- most likely a HANDFUL of iconic women- the rare and phenomenal bright lights who are turned ON about their life and transformation, not the masses.
It’s not about quantity but quality for me. I can relax into that, & I feel the thrill of surrounding myself with that high frequency.
So I ask you, what will you do with your ONE wild and precious life? Are you going to rise to YOUR unique calling?
To the ELITE WOMEN WHO RESPONDED TO MY EMAIL I want you to know that I took EVERYONE of you and wrote your names in the sand in a beautiful Equinox Celebration ritual with me and it was an EXQUISITE moment!
I read your emails and just hearing your about Dreams and struggles and desires to uplevel in your life gave me so much inspiration!
I feel I have tapped into the essence of what you are asking for from me, and I am inspired to design a very streamlined program that I will be presenting to you shortly- you’re going to love it!
So keep an eye on your inbox for details.
In the meantime, who else is ready to allow themselves FULL self expression, and stop making excuses, & be a goddess, an icon & live YOUR Dreams? If this were your last year on Earth, what is the Legacy you wish to leave behind? And how fired up are you to embody your essence and Go to your Destiny?
I’ll be speaking more about all this in this new telesummit with 16 other women who are living their Legend
Tagged: exquisite self care, natural health and beauty, raw foods, raw renewal, rejuvenation, sensual beauty
I’m so ready to share this with you! Much love!
Hooray! Thank You my Media Maven Goddess Extraordinaire!
I’m ready! On the path of embodying the person I’m born to be I know exquisite Self Care, including nutrition and a Goddess mindset, are essential pieces on the path. Looking forward to seeing your new offerings!
We speak the same language and hear the same call Laura! I look forward to guiding you into even more flowering embodiement of your exquisite Beauty, Leadership and Legend.
I apologize Shakaya. I really did want to comment on your email, but I couldn’t figure out what it was I wanted to say. I’ve been having a hard time trying to figure out what I want, I’m about to graduate soon for school and turn 23 all in October.
Ahhh Rehmy, my sweet girl, no need to apologise for these are really big questions I am asking and you are at a tender age and season in your life of exploration and discovery…
I suggest you tune into your Spirit and ask for clarity and guidance, then trust your inner knowing when your answers come. Ask yourself what is it the Divine Feminine within you wants to create in this one wild precious life of yours…now is your time, and it is within you, your true Nature…allow your voice to bubble up and let it express what is it you really want.
Congratulations on your upcoming graduation!
Thank you Shakaya, I really needed to hear that.
I am also ready and raring to go, my life is non stop chaos, and I want to stop the madness and focus on becoming the Goddess I know is hiding inside me, I love you and all you do for us
Whoa Kim! I can feel the energy behind that and must say I think you just spoke what many women are feeling- I’m thrilled you are here, go Kim!
I am a Goddess, we all are .. but embodying it it’s not always easy .. I have fears of being rejected, being less than others, etc etc .. the list goes on and on .. I am on a spiritual path for many many years, also on a rawfood path for some 6 years or so… transformation is strong and the process of becoming a butterfly is a beautiful, albeit chanllenging onw .. I’m doing it but not entirely .. beautiful wise women inspire me tremendously .. I’m in awe of your beauty and courageous and sure want to learn from you how you went from plain jane to the beautiful goddess you are nowadays … love from portugal
Thank you Ilanta, you are on the goddess path, and I am excited to help you stay in alignment with that vision of yourself and show you exactly how I did it!
Very beautiful piece you have here.. You inspire me.. Thanks Shakaya for sharing your insights.. keep up the good work.. I really admire your blog!
Thank you Emma, I’m glad you are here!
Wow Shakaya what a fantastic blog post! I am so ready! Really looking forward To your next program.
Wow Denae, I love you enthusiasm, stay tuned 🙂
Thanks for the awakening call; I dont want to feel sorry for myself telling how sad i feel but im sure that i can learn from you about how to feel & be a real empress. Blessings
Sorry I missed your ,last email. Sometimes in todays times sthings get over whelming and dreamiing is hard to do.. Keep up with the post they are awesome and give hope and reminders..
Thank you Karla, it’s so nice to hear from you!
What a beautiful and powerful post! I’m so with you!!! Lead the way gorgious Empress!
Thank you for your wonderful post, Shakaya — you are such an inspiration! I’m looking forward to your your wonderfully positive and empowering posts!
2011 has been a year of huge ransformations for me. At times it has been overwhelming, but I know that the timing is right for all that is happening. There is still much left to be done, but I am commited to seeing this through. Thanks for the reminder of the butterfly analogy. I seem to be getting alot of constant little words and stories of encouragement. It’s very comforting to know that one has a whole realm of support chearing us on! Blessings!
Shakaya this was incredibly beautiful. I stopped everything going on in my life right now to sit and read this. To truely take in what you were saying and it is beautiful. Thank you for offering up your light and guidance. I look forward to all of your emails, fb posts, and articles.
I participate in your site because of the pure beauty that you MN8. I too see myself as an exquisite butterly that is still in the coocoom stage at my strong age of 57. I must say that obviously I missed this particular email from you – Dear lady, continue to do what you do. Even if I don’t reply, please know that your site is a source of joy and pure beauty when I am able to check my inbox – besos a ti!!
Wow, what an inspiring and powerful post! I’ve only recently found you through a friend who sent me one of your videos, which I loved! I then sat there that night and watched all the rest. I love your energy and your inspiration. Through you I connected with Laura Hollick who is also amazing and through her Soul Art TV, Rose Cole another incredible soul. I’ve been surrounding myself with Goddesses, Empresses, and High Priestesses to help me “remember”. Because not too long ago I was there standing in my power, fully walking my Goddess path, and living my dreams, but then I came across a few dark nights of the soul and gave into them, only to find myself lost again. Had I not been there and experienced the wonder and magick of moving mountains and creating miracles, I would have never understood it, I want to be there again. October 12th is my birthday, another year gone by, I am soooo ready! I will not sabotage myself with self doubt again! Thank you for taking the stand and moving us forward. I’m so looking forward to getting to know you better, as well as learning from your empowering posts.
@E: Bliss you E!
@Diana: I love that you are with me and ready for more Diana!
@Lyn Ryan: Thank you Lyn, and I look forward to knowing that as you are inspired you will dive deeper into what you want and the people in your life will feel that and the ripples of inspiration will just keep on flowing!
@Jenny: You have trust that the timing is right even though the shifts and transformations of this year have been intense…we are either growing, or we are shrinking…YOU are expanding Jenny!
@Doreen: Thank you Doreen, I love that you said you see yourself as an exquisite butterfly still in your cacoon at your ‘strong’ age of 57- powerful! Besos a ti xo
@Allurynn: Hi Allurynn, allure I in, as you so did with your comment…what a picture you painted! YOu are surrounded by Divine Feminine energy because you ARE ready to move mountains again. Happy Blissday!
Shakaya, I actually sent you a personal email in the middle of the night, as I had fully intended on responding to your request about what is MY dream. Well, I thought I had moved into it only to have disaster strike and now have been bed ridden for 2 weeks and am having to move and there’s a lot more to it. I have dreams, many, and right now, they seem to be clouded over with this thing called life and survival. I would fully like to expand on this topic when I feel better, but somehow felt compelled to write to you. Perhaps it’s my thrwarted dream that has gotten me so down and out. Perhaps reigniting my dream is the very medicine that I need. Thank you for your wonderful ezine, I always look forward to reading it.
Your such an inspiration! You have my thumbs up! Your the hope of our country! Keep it up!
Shakaya,i totally missed your email on the dream, was away on travles. rst assured, i am IN! my dream? to live my life to the fullest, to go fully raw- i only discovered the greatness of raw 2 months ago and am in transition, not a smooth journey but absolutely worth-wile, i can feel the improvements in thinking, how i look, how i feel. i also want to express myself in a much better ME-way, i am busy developing my own business, not just for me but also to give something back so part will be for charity purposes. please keep up your inspiring and authentic work, i love it but i alos need the support to keep me going and guide me on my journey to self-developement. Thank ou!! Mariette
My Legacy I wish to leave behind is one of pure fun . . . to bring JOY to those around me…and share LOVE from my expansive, beautiful heart with ease, grace and beauty. I absolutely LOVED this email/blog . . .exactly the message I expected to receive from you at this time! I was unbelievably moved when I saw that you responded back to my email explaining my Dreams and then to read the email and for you say “You express a higher frequency than most because you wish to embody your spirit which is pure joy!” was simply wonderful for I admire you SOOO very much. I AM INDEED AN ELITE WOMEN FIRED UP TO EMBODY MY ESSENCE, MY GODDESS!
Ps. I am so very thankful(!) that you wrote my name in the sand in a beautiful Equinox Celebration ritual!
Also wanted to say how SO EXCITED I am to watch you on Soul Art TV!!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful spirit that radiates energy to my very core. I cqn feel the truth of your words and spirit deep within my gut!!! Like others, I find it hard to get past some of my hard wired robotic habits that I have built for the past 50+ years. You do inspire me and I see a bright and chaos free future as a transforming woman with passions!!! THANK YOU for stepping forward in life and reminding us of our God Given birthright to be goddesses!!!
Shakaya, I LOVED your interview on the Big Fat Lies Summitt. I have been on the self love journey for many years and still have a long way to go. Consuming juicy information is one of the ways I get there. Thank you so much for the work you do, I look forward to hearing more from your inner goddess and look forward to taming my inner mean girl and replacing her with a sexy, sensual beauty by practicing some of the tips you shared on the summitt. I am going to focus on the revel river because I don’t think I take enough time to celebrate all of my accomplishments. I’ve gone from a teenager running away from an Archie Bunker dad to a dynamic, superstar business owner and mom and I still forget to celebrate. Thanks for the reminder and keep up the awesome play. Love and Blessings, Laura
@Linda: What you just said Linda ‘perhaps reigniting my dream is the very medicine I need’ just gave me chills! YES! This si the magic, the lifeforce we need to stay Divinely protected and on our path…dis-ease and ‘accidents’ and other distractions are really wake-up calls before it’s too late, North Stars lighting our way back to ourselves. Brilliant Linda!
@Portia: Wow Portia, thank you, I need you on my PR team 🙂
@mariette: You are brilliant and beautiful Mariette, you can do it!
@Ashley Blanton: You are very welcome Ashley, it was a JOY. Keep your flame burning BRIGHT- that is the most sacred task of all!
@Kathy Buck: YOu see a ‘bright and chaos free future as a transforming woman with passions’ Whooo hoooo Kathy! I see that for you too and so much MORE that you would have to spend time daily fantasizing about what that will be 🙂
@Laura: Thank you for listening- I was a rambling rosewith so much to share in that talk for women just like YOU Laura who are a true superstar- YES, celebration energy is what keeps us juicy and opens the gates to our receiving even MORE
Skakaya~ I am going through a rough transition in my life right now…Put Nursing school on hold to take care of my health and become completely Raw. My health has really suffered these past few years and I just want to live my life to the fullest and with energy, light and love. I have such a wonderful husband and precious son I want to be fully present for. I am hoping that a completely Raw lifestyle will heal me completely ~~God Bless 🙂
Congratulations for claiming what you want and taking a stand in your life for that! Trust your intuition Joni, every step of the way. Living foods are powerfully healing, and they can help you uncover attitudes and behaviours that aren’t serving you…while you let go of cooked food, what else can you let go of to let more light in and raise your vibration to FULL ON HEALING, HEALTH AND HAPPINESS? You are surrounded by love and miracles. Blessings and hugs to you!
@Earth Empress:
You are such a blessing and your beautiful spirit is such an inspiration! I am hoping to follow the path toward helping others get well by studying Nutrition rather than Nursing~~ It is just so sad to see so many sick people on multiple medications…I really feel my calling is there. Of course my first healing above all will be within myself. 🙂 Love and blessings Shakaya!
One feels like sick care and the other heath care/prevention. Follow your calling Joni, that’s where the juice is!
I recently went through the same experience with my work; you have inspired me with this post (my first time reading your work 😉 I totally hear you sister you are soooo right thank you for reminding me to be at the leading edge it is not easy; the temptations to doubt oneself come hard &fast I have a woken to a new week; a new day; you have just broken that recent spell for me; I will continue in; with the passion of which I am born of Many Blessings Emily xxx
Go Emily! Welcome to Earth Empress!
Thank you for living your truth and for sharing it so openly with this article..very inspiring and encouraging to me..especially at this stage of my journey, as I prepare to leap into the next chapter..
Earth Empress, I have only just 5 min stumbled across your beautiful blog but I am so touched by your passion and love you share. The birth of my beautiful daughter a year ago has sent me on a spiritual journey. I am so drawn to becoming a Goddess and teaching this way of life to my daughter, how do I learn more? <3 much love Megan
Fate has brought me to your blog. I stumbled upon it – just at a time when I feel like I need more, I want more, I’m yearning for more – more improvement, more health, more satisfaction, more self-love, more fulfillment in all aspects of my life. I want what you write about. I just don’t know how to get there. I appreciate and wrap my arms around your words, your messages, and every ounce of your enthusiasm. I look for more, and for that spark within me to ignite to get to the next level. Not for any particular reason other that “for me”.
alice
