The million-dollar strategy you can’t learn (YOU CHANNEL IT 🪄) with psychic business coach, Faye Toorenburg
What if your next million-dollar idea isn’t in a funnel, a course, or a strategy…
but already in your energy field, waiting to be received?
In this episode of Advice From Her, I sit down with psychic business coach and soul healer, Faye Toorenburg, to unravel the truth behind soul-led success. We explore the most underrated business strategy no one is teaching: tuning into your intuition and building from deep inner knowing instead of external noise.
If you've ever felt like you're forcing your business to follow formulas that drain your energy or fit into a mold that doesn’t reflect your truth, this conversation will feel like a permission slip and a portal.
Inside this episode:
- Why “strategy” alone isn’t enough to scale (and what actually is)
- How to receive psychic downloads that guide aligned business decisions
The difference between intuition and fear (and how to tell in the moment) - The spiritual and energetic blocks holding most entrepreneurs back
- Faye’s most life-altering psychic download and how it changed everything
- Why your soul knows how to build an empire, even if your mind doubts it.
It’s not about more posting or more planning.
It’s about unlocking the version of you who was never meant to build her business like everyone else.
If you’re ready to burn the rulebook and build what only you can build, this is for you 💋

I'm honored to be on the journey with you, so let's get into it. Hello everyone, and welcome back to the Abundant and Aligned podcast and welcome to another episode as part of the advice from her series.
Speaker 1:Today I have Faye joining me and an episode I'm really excited for because, as we have explored throughout this series, there's the strategic side to growing a business. There's the numbers, there's the algorithm, but all of that is a result as to what's going on within ourselves and we've used the phrase throughout this series our inner compass, and I put up a post on the Gold Coast Girls in Business page seeking someone who can really talk to psychic guidance and growing our business from our soul-led inspirations and niggles. So I'm so excited for this one. But, faye, welcome to the Abundant and Aligned podcast. Thank you, I'm so thrilled to be here. We actually haven't had anyone like you on the show before, so this is going to be fun.
Speaker 2:I'm honored and I do love bringing a lot of soul into the everyday life, so I think it's a perfect match.
Speaker 1:Yay, love it. Well, I do have a series of questions today and, like I mentioned, like we haven't had a topic like this before, so make sure you stick around to the end, because the insights that we're going to be diving into today, it's going to be a game changer for your business, especially if you are someone who really does get heavy on the strategy and the numbers and what I call the boring side to business. This is going to provide a new perspective based on possibility and unlimited potential. But, faye, as for an intro, I'd love to just hand over the mic. Who is Faye? Tell us a bit about your business and how you landed in this space.
Speaker 2:I've been a psychic my whole life. I have been spiritually connected since birth, basically. So the spiritual side has always been tapped on for me, so to speak. For myself, I moved from England to Australia when I was 13 and that was a huge awakening for me personally, but also spiritually. I really found that when I landed on the Gold Coast, my energy anchored into this space and I knew that I was meant to be here to serve a bigger purpose. So, fast forward until probably my late teens, I would say, I went through a little bit of turmoil in my life and I turned to the one thing that had been my constant, which was my spirituality. And in the midst of all of this chaos, I just said stuff, this, I'm going to start my own business. So I just started my psychic readings ad on good old Gumtree, if anyone remembers that, back in the day, and this was back in 2012.
Speaker 2:So spirituality still wasn't mainstream, so to speak. It was still clouded in a lot of judgment. So I did have to navigate a lot of the being seen blockage when it came to my business business. And I had my business from 2012, and I did that part-time alongside a very successful corporate career. So I've actually almost lived a double life when it comes to business and career. I've had my really deeply soulful business doing psychic readings and healings and coaching, and then I also have had this really in-depth, intense but incredibly uplifting corporate experience too.
Speaker 2:So when I was in the corporate world, I got to COVID and during COVID I actually had a baby my first child and I was going really well with my psychic business on the side. I love my psychic business. I thrived doing my sessions, connecting with my community, but I still felt that connection to corporate. But when COVID hit and I had literally a four-month-old baby, spirit just told me something's got to change and that something is the corporate career. And I set a day and I said, by September, if I don't get a redundancy because of COVID, if I don't get a redundancy because of COVID, then I'm out like and I'm not kidding you the 1st of September my redundancy call came in. So I was like thank you, universe.
Speaker 2:So that's when I stepped in 2020 fully into my business full-time, and the rest is history. Really, I just embedded even deeply into what I was doing who I was and it was really like a cataclysmic moment for me going full-time in business. It transformed me as a person and, of course, it transformed my business as well. So since then I've moved into the coaching space. We'll talk a little bit about that in some of the questions that are coming up later about that transformation, like how I, how I transformed from the psychic readings to the coaching side. But it's truly always been an honor to be spiritually connected but also to be able to bring that through a business that really serves me and my family and my purpose is just unbelievably beautiful.
Speaker 1:You've struck gold, really to have something that you are passionate about and really connected to, and then being able to monetize it and do it every day. The dream the dream I'm assuming transition to business was I'm not going to use the word easy, because it's never easy, but smooth, considering it's your calling. Am I right or yeah?
Speaker 2:Yes, definitely At the beginning. When I first started it, in that turmoil time of my life, it was almost like a last resort. So when I first stepped into business, I honestly wasn't taking it so seriously. At that time I just thought this is what I know I can do, I know I can help people and nothing else is looking so bright right now. So let's just fall back on that Because, remember, I'd come from a lot of hiding within spirituality because of the way the world was. So at that time it was really like this, this big nudge forcing me almost to just jump into business, which was incredible, of course, when I reflect on it, yeah, but definitely it felt so right, it felt so natural. And even when I had my corporate career, I still knew that doing my psychic readings, my soul healings, I knew that that was part of my calling. I knew I could never let that go. It was always a non-negotiable for me.
Speaker 1:Now the questions I have for you guys. Today, everything Faye is sharing her wisdom, her knowledge is going to help you guys. But, faye, I'm really curious to know at what point in your life did you realize that you had psychic skills and abilities, and what does that look like and feel?
Speaker 2:like, look like and feel like, yes, amazing questions. So when I realized so I've always known, but I'll give you some examples of standout moments, I suppose. So one moment was as young as kindy. So I was in kindy, I wasn't even school age yet, and I distinctly remember my mum picking me up from kindy one day and she asked me, as all mums do oh, did you have a good day? What did you do today? And I said to her that I was playing with one of my family members who had passed when he was young as well, and I said I was playing with him and we did all these activities and we were talking about all these things that I never would have known as a young child and my mum was just like, okay, cool, like what, what is this, what's going on? Um, but she's always been really spiritually open, which has been a really um big for me, of course, but that was a really pivotal moment, I think, for my family also realising.
Speaker 2:Another one was when I was probably just before leaving primary school age and growing up in England. There's a lot of history, right? There's a lot of history, right, there's a lot of history. So we were on a bit of a tour around this old manor house and I remember being the last one in a room through the tour and I saw this girl sitting on a window ledge looking out the window at this beautiful big garden outside, and she was dressed really strange. I remember thinking, oh, that's like a really old dress. Why is she wearing that? Because she was about my age and I was just talking to her and she was telling me about herself and her life and this manor house that we were in and I literally went to go and get my friends to say, hey, come and meet this girl. And by the time I literally shouted at them to come in the room, turned around she was gone and I knew that she was a spirit, like I just could feel it. But she looked like we look Like we see her as I see you right now.
Speaker 2:So when I was younger when in the answer to your question around what it kind of felt like when I was younger, I would see. So I had the spiritual gift of sight very strongly, so I would see spirit a lot. I've always had a very strong gift around hearing. So spirit have always spoke to me and delivered messages in that way. So it's almost like a voice in my head, okay. So just like your own thoughts, and that's why I always tell people to trust what's in your head, right, because even though it's in your own voice, sometimes it may be spiritual guidance from loved ones or higher powers, right. So it's very interesting. So the seeing and the hearing have always been big ones for me, but especially the feeling. So feeling energy, feeling emotions, the not so fun one is feeling the physical ailments and pains that spirit have had or that a client may be going through and just having to navigate that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, as a young little girl, did you ever get scared by this experience? Because seeing spirit in the form of what felt and looked so real and realizing it wasn't as a young girl, that would have been a lot.
Speaker 2:Oh, definitely. I mean, there was almost always an element of this is natural and this is normal. It's like you knew it wasn't. Yeah, yeah, it had always been there. So it was just an undercurrent of this is normal. But at the same time, there was energetic overwhelm. So when I was younger, I didn't have any boundaries in place, spiritually speaking, at all, so spirit could just jump in and talk to me whenever they wanted. They were appearing all times of days and nights. I used to sleep with a tv on until literally until I moved in with my husband if I'm going to be perfectly honest with you into my early 20s because of the noise from spirit.
Speaker 1:Wow, and so how can you mentioned before that you encourage people to turn their attention over to those voices in our head and realize that it's not always our voice. It could be guidance from spirit. How can they differentiate between the head noise that we experience on a day-to-day basis and spirit guidance?
Speaker 2:So that voice in your head is your intuition, the feeling in your body is intuition. The best way to differentiate is the age-old rule that I'm sure many of the listeners have heard before the first thing that comes into your head is very often intuition. Anything that questions that first thought after the fact is often your logical mind trying to make sense of things. Now we have to remember that biologically our logical mind is inbuilt to keep us alive and to keep us safe, so it is naturally fear-driven. But our logic is energetically driven. It's when we are soul aligned. So the, the intuition comes in first. That is your, your body, your mind, your soul. Knowing the information, that's your intuition, it's your inner knowing right. So that comes first, and then the logical brain kicks in and makes all of the observations that it does.
Speaker 1:And we're all very familiar with that.
Speaker 2:We are Exactly, exactly. And it's not about being perfect, it's not about eliminating the logical mind, because we know, especially in business, the logical brain is so incredible, it can help us so much, but it can also hinder us at times.
Speaker 1:So that's why that intuition is really, really important and how would you recommend they strengthen hearing that before the fear and the overthinking comes on board? Because I'm assuming it's pretty quick we get the little nudge, the little piece of guidance, and then we're bombarded with all of the other thoughts. So how can can we, I guess, extend that window so that we can actually hear the answers that are dropping in?
Speaker 2:So intuition is like a muscle You've got to use it and you've got to practice. You've got to keep it up. When we're talking about practicing intuition, what does that even look like? What does that even look like? What is that right?
Speaker 2:So I like to keep spiritual practice as simple as possible. I like it to be integrated into your every day, just like a personal trainer would working out your body right, strengthening your body. You want consistency, you want practice, but you also want it to be easy to do. You don don't want someone to be, you know, struggling for five hours and then they're never going to go and do it right. So I have the same approach with spirituality it should come into our every single day life.
Speaker 2:So, in saying this, a really fun tip that I have is to just open your communication, and it's maybe as simple and feeling as silly as saying hey, spirit, god, angels, whatever deity we want to talk to, hey, hey guys, what are we having for dinner tonight?
Speaker 2:What should I nourish my body with today? It's asking the questions that you're going to overthink anyway, but instead of allowing yourself to be trapped within your own mind with hundreds of questions, ask above yourself, ask higher energy and give it over to them and say, hey, I don't have to make this decision by myself, it doesn't have to be difficult. I do have that energetic support and I can ask and I will receive. And the more you do that, the more your intuition will naturally just open. You will naturally notice that your brain is quieter, there's less overthinking, there's less you know insanity with the over-processing that we tend to do at times. You know we go into these loops and these cycles, right, but when we connect in intuitively, it just naturally drops in over time. So the number one tip for strengthening your intuition is to talk to that higher power that you connect with yourself.
Speaker 1:I love the example of just asking simple questions Like what's the worst thing that's going to happen if something drops in to do with your dinner? You know, like not much like playing around with that If they practice the art of strengthening their intuition and then they start to ask more direct questions around their business. So is this client aligned, you know, should I take on this particular project? Is marketing my launch in this way the right way, or whatever it may be? How do they then trust the answer that comes through is intuitively guided, or again, just that bombard of fear is intuitively guided, or again just that bombard of fear, overthinking logic, mind Great, great question.
Speaker 2:So fear and the overthinking logic mind feels chaotic and it feels like pressure. So if you are asking a question of shall I market this launch this way, let's say, if your mind starts going into overdrive, thinking about how much you have to do what you have to do, how long it's going to take, oh no, I'm not going to meet my deadline when we start catastrophizing and it becomes quite chaotic, that's when I would say pause, breathe and check back in with yourself, because you are not coming from a place of intuition and flow, you are coming from a place of fear and pressure. So we can feel that in our body and we hear that in the way that we're talking to ourselves. We can feel the stress. We can feel the stress, we can feel the pressure. We've all been there in business where we've felt pressured. There is healthy pressure and excitement, but I'm talking about the dread feeling. So that's that fear-based. When it's intuition, it feels exciting, it feels light, you feel empowered, you feel confident and you cannot wait to get your hands in and to make things happen.
Speaker 2:A lot of people think that intuition is just sitting and meditating and then going in to do the logical side of business, but intuition should flow through every single part of your day, every single part of your business.
Speaker 2:If I have a lot of, let's say, creation to do in my business, let's say right now I'm actually remodeling my whole business right. So it's really fun, but it's really hands-on. There's a lot of work to do. Instead of me channeling what it's going to look like, what it's going to feel like, how I bring my energy into it through a meditation, I will actually be actively connecting to my guides and to my own body and how I feel as I'm creating, so as I'm in the back end, doing the updates, creating the website links, making all of the content, mapping out my marketing plan. I have my intuition open and I'm constantly checking in with myself. How does this step feel in my body? How's my body reacting? Am I getting tense and tight? If I am, I'm going to pause and step back a little bit. If not, if it feels exciting and I'm in flow, let's keep going. So it's about bringing it into the everyday and intuition feels exciting and empowering and the overthinking and the fear is like a pressure.
Speaker 1:You've just answered my next question, because I was going to ask if there is a particular window in the day where intuition is more heightened, but it sounds like the gate can be open throughout the day if you are willing to listen Absolutely.
Speaker 2:Everyone is spiritually connected at all times, and that's the thing. Spirituality coming into the mainstream is a great thing, of course. I love that, because more people are connecting to themselves, but it's also created this idea that you have to do certain things to be spiritual. The whole point of spirituality is to just know yourself. Simply know yourself, connect to yourself, understand yourself. That is spirituality. So when we lead with that knowing we can't go wrong, we're connected to ourself all day. Every day, we're tapped into how our body is responding, what our emotions are doing and how everything's feeling. That is intuition in itself. Anytime you ask yourself how am I feeling today? What am I open to today? That's your intuition. That's you spiritually connecting, which is so, so powerful.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and it's not a matter of learning this skill. It's almost turning it back on. You know, we all have the ability within ourselves, and I love how simple you've made the process Ask and you'll receive, listen up to what's already being dropped in and know that you are intuitively being guided. I love that. Now, obviously, there are certain people like yourself who have had this innate skill to connect with the source and you know, see spirit and things like that and then there are others who have not experienced that at all. What's the difference between these two people? Is it that some people are just better at it than others, or those who don't experience what you do? Do they have a block within themselves that's not allowing the process to take place?
Speaker 2:So there's a multitude of reasons why we are also vastly different in our spiritual journey and in our spiritual connections. It's just like our personalities right Same thing. So our energy is how, how we are what we are, how we are who we are, and our spiritual connection is tapped into and hardwired into our energy, just like our personality is. So we all come here with a sole purpose I, I believe, and we have many micro purposes and missions along the way and, depending on what your soul chose to come here to experience depends on your level of openness throughout your spiritual journey. So I work with clients from all walks of life, every gender, every age, every demographic, and I have seen I've literally seen it all. I've seen every situation. I've seen people like myself who have been connected forever. I've seen people who are in their seventies opening those doors for the first time ever, and it really does. I see link back to where we're at on our soul journey, when we need to open up the most. Our soul is here to heal blockages and our soul is here to grow our energy, and I believe that is so that we can make our world a better place, so that we can all help our collective, whether it's people, animals, plants, the world itself. We all are here with a purpose and when we are connecting to ourselves spiritually, we can consciously choose to open that door earlier than the planned time. Let's say so. Yes, there's almost like a predestined journey there when we look at the soul side of things, but I'm all about spiritual empowerment. If you want to open up those gates and you want to bring in your dream life, then start practicing. There's nothing that's going to stop you, except for yourself. If you say yes to yourself and say I'm doing this, it's already done.
Speaker 2:One thing that can slow down the process, let's say, is what you mentioned before, which is blockages, blockages and limiting beliefs, and that's the really deep work that I love to do with my clients and in the community. We're basically removing the blockages and then fast-tracking the growth spiritually, personally and professionally, in our businesses as well. So if we have a limiting belief that's on repeat, it's very difficult for us to hear that intuition. If we are, as business owners, in a loop of believing that we are unworthy of success, how are we going to embody that success? We can do all of the business planning. We can map everything out. We can do all of the hustling that people want to do. You can invest all your money, all your time, all your energy on the growth aspect, but if you do not pause and understand what's holding you back, you're going to really struggle. It's almost like the bungee rope right, you can go forward, but it's only a matter of time before you have to be yanked back and you have to look at that, that trauma, that limitation that's there.
Speaker 1:I love what you mentioned there about, um, you could be doing everything right in your business, you could have the best strategy, you could be hustling and doing all the things, um, but eventually it's going to pull you back and force you to take a look at what's going on under the surface. And what's going on under the surface. And what's going on under the surface does always present itself in one way or another, which is actually a question I'd love to ask what is a common block you see among entrepreneurs, and how does that present physically for them in their business?
Speaker 2:Unworthiness is one of the biggest blockages that I see on repeat for many people, but especially business owners, and you think I'm sitting in a room with a really successful entrepreneur and they still feel unworthy. They have, from the outside, looking in, what anyone would call a dream life. So how could they possibly feel unworthy? And the answer to that is their energy. They may have had an experience in their childhood that they still haven't dealt with. That's playing on repeat in their subconscious mind. It could be something from past lives that has happened. That's still affecting their soul today and coming up throughout their business world and coming up throughout their business world and their personal life. They could have a limiting belief that they're not even noticing. That's keeping them small and that's creating that unworthiness. So unworthiness is one of the biggest ones.
Speaker 2:I also see a huge blockage around being seen. Being being seen is a big one. I actually feel like a big issue around that is society, because people are constantly comparing. My biggest advice to anyone if they're worried about being seen, is you are meant to shine exactly as you are and as you show up as yourself. The people who connect with who you are authentically will flood to you when we're trying to be someone that we're not, we actually repel our dream clients, our dream opportunities. We're living in someone else's world, in someone else's reality. So we have to do a lot of inner work to actually strip that fear of being seen and to step up and use our voice and our energy to be authentically ourselves.
Speaker 1:I love that you just touched on fear of being seen as a result of comparison, because we live in a world where we are bombarded by other entrepreneurs the way they're doing business, their personality, how they're showing up so it is very easy to get sucked into what they're doing and how they are showing up. But I love that you just mentioned there is a way that you're supposed to do this and you're supposed to show up, and people will love you for that. But it's about even just finding that. I feel like a lot of entrepreneurs don't even know who that is, because for so long they have just been running someone else's race. So I think that's the first step is who are you?
Speaker 1:Get to know yourself, what are your quirky personality, traits and skills, Like what does the world need to see? And then unapologetically stepping into her and showing up as her. What? Because obviously this is the work you do with your clients. It's like all right. What are these blocks? And let's clear them so you can show up in your power and create the dream life. What's a profound modality or piece of work that you do with your clients that you've just seen create ripple effects in your community?
Speaker 2:ripple effects in your community. Oh, that's a tough question. What's a preferred modality? As an intuitive, I merge modalities very often, so I don't work with one set modality per se, but the biggest impact that I'm noticing at the moment is soul activations. At the moment is soul activations, so I'll explain a little bit more about that, because it's not really like a common modality, I guess.
Speaker 2:So what I do when I work with my clients is I connect not only to them and their human energy. Let's say, I actually connect to their soul energy. So we're not just working on, let's say, the 3D playing field here. We're not just looking at, okay, what happened in this life that's created blockages, and what are your goals and your dreams for this lifetime. I actually tap into their soul and ask their soul who are you, what are you here for? And honestly, especially with clients who have successful businesses, when we activate that soul connection, when we draw that conversation between themselves and their own soul, that enhanced intuition, that's when they make the biggest impact in their entire lives for themselves, for their family, for their community, because they fully trust who they are, because they are 100% connected. Now they're not just trying to play based on their human needs. They're connected on a soul level to the deeper purpose and passion they're backing themselves, but also they understand what they're here for.
Speaker 2:And in business that's massive. We all know how many times have we laid awake saying is this what I'm really meant to do? Or is this the way I'm really meant to do this? Is this business right for me? Am I fully aligned to the right clients, the right marketing plans, the right services? How often do we question that right? But when we connect to soul and we figure out who we're here to help and how we're here to support our community, it's unwavering confidence. Right, we just know what we're meant to do. So then we can lead from an empowered place around making those big decisions in business and our personal lives. So soul activations is definitely the most impactful that I've noticed.
Speaker 1:I love that because there's so many entrepreneurs who are feeling that nudge inside that they are supposed to do it different. You know they're not here to fit the box, they're not here to check off a to-do list that somebody else made in order to market themselves. Like they just know inside of them that it's supposed to be different. But that's scary to trust. When you look around and you're seeing it done differently and they're doing it well and it's working for them.
Speaker 1:It is so easy to assume that that's the road to success. But that's why I love these conversations to highlight that you are here to do it differently and that plan is probably very obvious once you know how to communicate and get those answers. I literally have goosebumps as I'm saying this Like it just yeah, this work is just so powerful. And again, I'm bringing these conversations on the show because we're seeing it so much in business women who are watering down themselves to fit a marketing strategy or to fit an approach that yeah, just isn't for them, it was never for them, um, and they feel shit along the way because, again, their soul knows this is not what we're here to do. Um, so, yeah, it's like trusting those nudges and listening up and taking action um Absolutely.
Speaker 2:That's exactly right. It's not about fitting into someone else's box or running a program the same way that someone else has done it, just because they were successful. You're not them, you don't have their personality. You might have a very similar business idea or even a very, very similar client demographic, but I can almost guarantee that if you follow exactly what they're doing, you're going to fail because you're not being authentic to yourself. You've got to lead from within. You've got to start the process with yourself first.
Speaker 2:Often in business, we get very caught up in being of service. Even if we have a product-based business, we're caught up in being of service. What can we do? A product-based business? We're caught up in being of service. What can we do for the clients? How can we provide the best value, the best products, the best services? How can we give, give, give, but we're not actually giving to ourselves. So when we stop and reflect and actually ask ourselves who am I? What do I desire today? Who am I? What do I desire today? How do I want my life to be like? What do I actually desire? That's when the magic happens, because we're leading from our soul, we're leading with purpose and passion, and then we're fully aligned and we call in that divine abundance right. We call in the success, we call in the joy, the love, the fun that we're here as souls to experience too. It's not all about being perfectly aligned to our purpose, and we have a mission and we've got to get things done. Your soul also chose to come here to have fun.
Speaker 2:And a lot of business owners, especially women, are busy juggling life, family commitments, partnerships, you name it along with the business side of things. So where are we having the fun? Where are we living in alignment to not only our big purpose, not only our business needs, but also alignment to ourselves?
Speaker 1:And unfortunately that gets left to last. For a lot of women, you know pouring into themselves, doing the things that light their soul up, that just come from a place of leisure and fun. Unfortunately, they look at that as unproductive and that's last on their list Again. Why I encourage women to bump that up their list? Because there is no point in showing up online if you're doubting everything that you're producing, or there is no point you having the most incredible marketing plan if that marketing plan is going to lead you down the path you're not supposed to walk. This work needs to come first, before anything else. I love this. Now I'd love to know have you ever received a psychic download that completely changed the course of your business or a client's business? It was just such a big pivot as a result of that download, Absolutely.
Speaker 2:I have Most things that I do in my life and in my business have come from psychic channel or download right. So almost every decision for myself is soulless. I don't sit and think what can make me the most money, how can I do this the right way? What would that marketing plan look like? I sit, I open my intuition and I listen and then I create. But there have been some really impactful moments I'd love to share one for myself, for my business journey, and then one for a client, because it's just too good not to share. So for myself personally, the biggest shift took place, like I Like I mentioned earlier, when I felt the nudge to leave corporate.
Speaker 2:Everyone said to me Faye, you are crazy. You have like a four-month-old baby. You are literally earning good money. You're in a great position. You've climbed the corporate ladder. You're doing amazing. You've got that respect. You love what you do in a great position. You've climbed the corporate ladder, you're doing amazing. You've got that respect. You love what you do, you love who you work with. Why would you throw that stability away when you have a baby? And I said, well, it's not stability, because in my heart, in my soul, I knew stability for me had changed when I had a baby. Stability for me was not working 8am till 6pm, five days a week. Stability for me was leading from the heart, was being with my babies, was growing a business and leading by example. And it makes me emotional even talking about this, because it's so soul-led and it's so soul-aligned.
Speaker 2:And not long after I made that decision and I stepped fully into my business, I was doing a call with a regular client and this was when I was just doing psychic readings and healings. Now it's in the middle of COVID, I'm online, we're doing it on the laptop. And as soon as we said goodbye and I closed the laptop, my spirit guide said to me Faye, grab a pen. And I was like, oh okay, something's gonna go down here. So I grabbed my pen and they said just write, don't question, okay, I trust you guys. And I started writing numbers down the page and then they were channeling information and what I wrote down in less than one hour was my full business coaching plan that I would move into, which completely pivoted my business and my whole life.
Speaker 2:If you'd have asked me the day before that happened, if you'd have told me you're going to be a psychic business coach focusing on business, I would have said no way, no way. But as soon as it came out of me, as soon as it was on that piece of paper, I just knew, and that business plan that I wrote down in less than one hour, that was created within one day with all of my resources and that's good for me, admin, in one day, that's a pretty good accomplishment. It just poured out of me, I did not question, I was fully open. It poured out of me, I did not question, I was fully open. It poured out of me and that business plan, that model of coaching, was the backbone of what I still do today. So, although I don't use the same structure, it elevated me. And not even a year later. That's when I stepped fully into coaching and left the psychic world of readings behind, obviously still bringing the psychic into the coaching, of course, but wow.
Speaker 1:I just want to say on that too, I'm sure everybody listening to this has had those moments where it just comes out of you Like you're so creative, you're flooded with ideas and that's, I guess, a similar situation, like that's your soul trying to speak to you and give you the answers that you need. Wow, I love that and your client story yes, client story.
Speaker 2:So one of my beautiful VIP clients, which is an annual container because people can work with me at different levels for different durations, one-on-one and this beautiful client just jumped in, fully committed, was like I'm doing it Now. This client was not always very open, spiritually, I will say so. We came in at the beginning with a lot of logic around business, a lot of intuitively channeling, but next steps, business plans, structures, strategies, and really opened up her energy to it. Now this client started her business with zero dollars, zero dollars and an idea. She grew her business to multi six figures within within the first year and just before the first year anniversary, I suppose, is when she started working with me. So she'd done a lot of work already, she'd hustled a lot and got the results. Within the first year of working with me, she over doubled her revenue, she hired more clients, more staff, she set up systems that meant that she could step back and wasn't working in her business anymore.
Speaker 2:And we're not even through year two yet of our journey together and she's hit millionaire status in her business from zero dollars. And I just wanted to share that because I want that to inspire others, if you are listening, even just starting a new dream. If you want to pivot completely in your business and start fresh, you can do that with $0. And in less than three years, just like my client did. Million dollar business, wow. So that comes from, yes, having strategy and having patience and having passion, but it also comes from trusting yourself. It also comes from having confidence in yourself in being your biggest supporter.
Speaker 1:That is insane. That is insane and it is a testament to what happens when you just take the leap Like you just show up and take the leap and put the work in the right kind of work. These kinds of miracles are happening all the time in the business world, all the time and to the listeners like you are no different to women who are doing this and experiencing this, but I love that you've highlighted throughout this episode. You've got to trust yourself and you've got to lead from yourself, not what everybody else is doing. Well, speaking of your incredible work, where can the listeners find you? Do you have any offers at the moment? I'm sure they are obsessed with everything you're sharing. So what's happening in your world right now?
Speaker 2:I love it. So thank you for asking that. So I have Soul Academy, which is my spiritual development and business enhancement platform. So we have a membership program within there which is all about enhancing your intuition, deepening your soulful connection to yourself and really expanding your business from that inner world. So we have the Soul Academy Society membership that's what that one's called and we also have a range of different development workshops, events for business and psychic and spiritual development.
Speaker 2:I have a team within Soul Academy as well of psychics and healers. So if you are still looking for a psychic reading, get some guidance, get some deeper healing, then my gorgeous team can support there To go deeper with the work and to really jump in. That's where I come in, and I have my own brand new memberships that aren't even launched yet, that are about to come. That's what I'm working on at the moment, but there's some brand new memberships stepping in. I have a group coaching container that is about to start at the middle of this year, and I also have my one-on-one platform as well.
Speaker 2:So when people work with me, they're not only just receiving business guidance, they're not only just receiving that connection to their soul. They are being activated in their mission. They are being activated in their purpose and to work with me. It's a sacred container. I work with people who are here to make the world a better place. That's where my gifts truly align.
