3. Envy: Identify the qualities that you envy in others and explore how you can begin incorporating those elements into your own life or releasing your attachment to them.
4. Jealousy: Examine where jealous might be showing up in your life and reflect on what that means for you...
5. Body: How can you practice listening to and respecting your body and its needs?

In this episode, Elyse shares her personal backstory and discusses how challenging experiences in the workplace led her to pursue entrepreneurship. She explains that burning out at previous non-profit jobs motivated her to find her current path and gain clarity about her values and the kind of culture she wanted to be a part of.

The host also shares lessons she learned about herself from burning out in the non-profit sector. These include the importance of being her own boss, the need for quiet, alone time, and the value of transparency, clear communication, and accountability. She also talks about how she shifted her internal narrative from one based on external metrics to what feels true and meaningful for her. Finally, the episode concludes with 13 guiding principles for being more connected, which underlie everything the host does and creates.

PRACTICES: Soul Honoring Summer Series Pt. 1 

1. Spend at least 20 minutes this week cleaning out one area of your home. Energetically this releases stuck energy and creates more space for what you want to bring into your life over the next 12 weeks.
2. Design your daily soul care practice in a way that supports your unique lifestyle! You can experiment and mix things up until you find what works best for you. (ie. time of day, length of practice and potential activities including: journaling, pulling an oracle card, meditating, walking in nature, dancing, movement, breathwork etc.)
3. What part of your life are you nervous to show for? Sit with the parts of yourself that might be a little scared about growth and change and allow yourself to journal freely about these feelings.
4. Where are you craving to change and grow? Allow yourself to dream BIG and do not hold back on expressing your soul yearnings.
5. Visualize yourself 3 months in the future, at the conclusion of this series, what do you hope to have learned? Who are you seeking to become?
