5 Basic Badass Pillars Of Zen Hustling :: The Core Principles Of Running A Spiritual Business.

Over the last few weeks these words have been running over and over in my mind.

Resonance
Alignment
Sovereignty
Integrity
Truth

I’ve always connected to them, but it’s gone to an even deeper level as I step more into who I am, and what I’m called to do.

I’ve always strived for excellence, so much so that my first coaching business back in 2003 was called Coaching For Excellence.

I later changed it to The Coaching Group because this sounded more ‘corporate’ and therefore ‘credible’. I guess that’s what happens after more than 10 years in the corporate world.

We have a saying in Lebanese that everyone goes back to their roots. Ain’t that the truth.

When I first started coaching my deepest passion was to help corporates tap into their spirituality for increased and sustainable success.

The problem was that I didn’t have a deep enough self-belief, resources, Mentors or confidence to carry this through – hence why I totally changed the name of my business.

Back then there was NO credibility in spirituality. It was about tangible corporate political BS.

I landed a $20k client within months of finishing my coaching and NLP Master Certifications. Every coaches dream right?

I was so miserable.

The client was a corporate client in the finance sector. I couldn’t talk spirituality, and even worse I followed a set system.

I know now that I was looking for love in the wrong places, and not headed down the right path.

1) I was coaching peeps I wasn’t aligned with.
2) I didn’t resonate with their vibe.
3) I wasn’t operating in my own integrity by still coaching even when there was no resonance or alignment.
4) I didn’t honour my sovereignty because I allowed money and status to overrule my authority.
5) I didn’t speak my truth about what made me happy.

Think about the choices you’re making right now. Do the VIBE Test below. Think about your ‘issue’, and ask yourself:

Is it resonating with you completely? Like a hell yeah! if not then it’s a HELL NO!
Is it in alignment with who you are and where you’re headed?
Are you operating with complete integrity?
Are you honouring your sovereignty? As an OG shot caller.
Are you speaking your truth?

It’s time gorgeous.

Time to call in everything you’ve been wanting.
Your heart’s desires.
NOT what someone else wants.

It’s taken me a long time to be able to share my spiritual message. I wish it didn’t, but it did.

It’s been a struggle trying to live in both spiritual and badass world.
Feeling like I had to ‘pick a lane’.
Not feeling credible when I talked about airy-fairy woo-woo stuff.
Feeling out of alignment when I only talked about badassery.

I’ve since had many mentors along the way who’ve created the space for me to show up the way I do now.

It’s taken years of heartache, with so much money and time wasted, but I finally got to see how to blend Hustle + Flow. It all really came together for me when I started working with the Lunar cycle a couple of years ago.

Everything changed. Shifted. Aligned. Flowed.

I became aware of nature’s cycles.

It all started with an awareness of how the lunar cycle works. Which led to creating my daily practice, and grew to honouring the wheel of year, astrological archetypes and planetary energies and more importantly applying it to my business.

It’s been an amazing journey of discovery, which led to creating Lunar Business Success System, as well the inner circle.

I love creating my monthly Lunar Report + Playbook. It’s a highlight of my month that I get to create it for me as much as my clients lol.

When you buy the system you get the Circle Membership free for the first month.

How To Use The Full Moon In Business :: Create A Ritual For Success.
There’s heightened energy at this time of the Full Moon in the Lunar cycle. Hospitals report higher incidences of accidents and just a whole lot of frenziness going on.

This is the time to check into your business to get to the hear of what’s not serving you, and letting it go.

Go back to the intentions you set on the new moon, and feel into them again.

How far have you come?

What have you achieved so far?

Enjoy how you’ve progressed in your business, and personally. It’s time to celebrate the half way mark.

Creation and intuition is heightened. Use this time wisely to write, draw, plan.

I’ve been known to do all-nighters during full moons. It’s quite common that creative juices start flowing, and find myself going to bed right before I’m ‘supposed’ to wake up lol. As a Zen Hustler, I always choose to run with intuition and flow, and if it’s flowing then I’mma keep going!

Always choose to run with intuition and flow, and if it’s flowing then let it KEEP going! Share on X

Some questions to ask yourself:

What have I learned so far?

What hasn’t worked that I need to let go of?

What’s working in my business that I’m happy about ?

The energy starts to build 24 hours before the official full moon time and wanes for 24 hours afterwards.

It’s a great time to hold a sale or even officially release your product or offering.

Have a Full Moon Ritual, is really simple and doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s all about being present, and setting the intention.

This is what I do every full moon.

Full Moon Ritual:
1. Cleanse the area with a Smudge Stick (I like Sage + Palo Santo) I also light some incense, and sometimes a candle.
2. Hand write a list of everything that you want to let go of and burn it under the moonlight.
3. I also read through my intentions for that month, to REALLy feel them in very part of my being again.
You could also:
- Create a crystal grid
- Think about how you want to feel for the month and meditate on that word and feeling.

Manifesting Your Badass Business :: The Zen Hustlers Way
I’ve started reading a great book by Jen Sincero called You Are A Badass At Making Money. I guess it’s a badass guide to manifesting.

I’m still working through the first chapter and have had so many aha moments (if you’re following me on Instagram and Facebook you’ll see I’ve been posting some quotes from the book)

[Random Fact: (listening to Eminem I’m a Soldier as I write this) Don’t ever in your life try and knock the truest, I spit the illest shit out ever been dropped.]

So as I was saying……

Jen basically talks through the different ways we may have lack mentality about things we so easily usually overlook.

I experienced my own self-sabotage kick in over the weekend. I’ve been uplevelling so much these past few weeks, and over the weekend took a step back in the most unlikely way.

I attended my Niece’s wedding on Saturday, and being a big fat Lebanese wedding, my usual routine was a little out of whack.

Part of uplevelling for me was looking after my health. Cutting out dairy, gluten and especially softdrink again was a biggie for me.

The wedding was a legit pass card for ‘treating’ myself right?

Well I went the whole hog, didn’t I!
Soft drink. Yoghurt, creamy food, fast food the next day, crappy breakfast the day after.

Which has resulted in manifesting painful reflux for the last couple of days, a condition I’ve never had in my life.

So the last couple of days I clearly haven’t been operating at my best.

Now I believe that everything that manifests in your body is a result of something going on more deeply engrained that you’re not likely aware of.

In the book Secret Language Of Your Body : The Essential Guide To Health & Wellness by Inna Segal – she says that Reflux is caused by the following:

“Difficulty digesting life. Feeling uncomfortable with what you are seeing, feeling, hearing and experiencing. Feeling irritated and frustrated about your inability to control what is happening around you. Guilt about the past. Feeling helpless about choices which were made in the past. Trying to resist life rather than learn from your experiences.”

Now if I’m being honest with myself I can relate to pretty much everything written above.

I’m majorly uplevelling in so many areas of my life, and as always happens when you no longer settle for the mediocre way, fear always creeps in and tries to push me back down into my safe box.

Here’s the thing, I no longer want the safety of that box, but moving out of it still poses threats to my ego who just loves to control everything.

Manifesting is not some airy-fairy word with no substance. What shows up as ailments, can explain the deeper, underlying story.

Have a think about what’s going on for you physically right now.

What’s REALLY going on for you?

Write it all down.

Do a Google search for metaphysical reasons for what you’re experiencing, or send me an email (hustleAtZenHustler.com) and I’ll respond back with what could be the underlying reason for your ailment.

I truly believe that knowledge is power, because when you know better you do better.

When I know and understand beyond the surface issue, I feel empowered to heal from the root cause, rather than just superficial hooha.

Once you know what’s at the core level, journal it all out.
Write down what comes up for you after gleaning these insights.
- What are you fears?
- What can you do to move forward?
- What can you be aware of moving forward?
- What are your trigger points?
- How will you know you’re going back to old habits?
Create positive I AM power statements to help you move through the underlying fears holding you back from growing your badass business.

I find EFT super powerful as well. There are heaps of videos online, just type in [problem] EFT. So for example after journaling you might realize that you’re scared of losing friendships by making money – you might search for [fear of making money EFT Video].

I’d love to hear your realizations, and don’t forget you can send me your issue and I’ll let you know what’s at the root cause.

Soulful Business :: The Core Foundations To Create A Business With Soul
The new moon in Taurus brings the energy focus for this month to money and pleasure. It’s also the perfect time to re-evaluate your soulful business.

I’ve been undergoing an overhaul in my business.

It’s become abundantly clear that I’ve tolerated so many things, because I’d lost sight of my core why.

Is it any wonder my soulful business lacked soul!

I started my business to make an impact on this planet, spread love and to offer a safe space of acceptance to women who are ready to stop settling.

But I somehow got caught up in the ‘strategy’ of it all, and lost the heart + soul of my core message.

I focused so much on the outcome, strategy and idea creation that I never actually got to implement and even worse I let go of the ability to work intuitively.

It became a numbers game, and whilst it still is in so many ways – the work MUST come through your soul.

When you’re so focused on the detail, you miss out on the insights you receive along the way to share your core message, and in turn lose sight of the true big picture.

It’s all about trust and action – the key word being action.

There’s going to be days where you don’t feel like doing anything. In fact this took me days to write as I stopped and started with procrastination and overthinking.

I took to my journal to get to the bottom of it, and what came up was that I was so caught up in the ‘how’ of it all – the technical stuff.

The thought process usually goes something like this:
“Ok so I’m going to write today, and it’s going to be so much fun. My writing is just going to flow, and I’m going to shut everything else out and just write.”

What happens is that I get so caught up in my head about it, that I forget to release all expectations and outcomes and just.write.damn.it.

So I walked to my local coffee shop, journal and laptop in hand (I chose the cafe that has no internet access, ie no chance for distractions).

I started by journaling and asking the question:

Why do I feel such resistance when I’m writing?

The answer I got was:

There are expectations rather than being in the moment. I’m building up the experience in my mind with “it’s going to be so much fun”, rather than just doing it. Basically I’m peaking in my mind before I even get to write.

I can’t tell you everyday just works in flow automatically, because some days it’s a conscious decision for everything I do in a day, other days just happen by themselves.

They ‘happen by themselves’ because of the work I put into creating daily rituals to keep my business soulful.
Being in flow kinda days ‘happen’ through daily rituals of devotion to your soul's calling, regardless of how hard it feels. Share on X
These are the base core rituals I can’t live without:
- Mindset
- Spiritual
- Health
They all contribute to my work ritual of writing and showing up for my peeps.

I used to think that only celebrities or really successful people need to micro-focus on things that induce high performance.

I’ve realized how wrong I’ve been.

Whilst I’ve always wanted to perform at my best, and operate at optimum levels, it was at a very superficial level.

I’ve always loved looking good so everything was at surface level (even though I thought otherwise) but the older I get the more I appreciate how important it is to work from the core both spiritually and physically.

High performance life hacks rock.
- Superfoods (Turmeric + Coconut oil come to mind)
- Green Juice + Smoothies (drink with Glass Straws of course)
- Daily walk or jog
- BulletProof Coffee
- Paleo Philosophy (particularly no dairy, gluten or sugar)
- Protein
- Healthy fats
Running a soulful business means consciously applying high performance principles in all areas of your life, in order to be able to show up, serve your tribe and be a Leader who leads truly by example.

Intuition + Strategy (+action) = Soulful Business

The Truth About Breaking-Down To Break-Through

One thing I know for sure is that a breakdown ALWAYS proceeds a breakthrough.

I’ve experienced this on many occasions, and what I find most frustrating is regaining the momentum I had worked so hard to build.

The last couple of months have been trying for so many peeps including myself.

On the surface, I’ve smashed through lifelong conditioning. I came out of it feeling like I’d done the work, paid my dues and it was MY time to shine.

What became so blatantly clear though, is that deep down I didn’t feel I deserved to have this success. I wish I could tell you that it was a clear-cut decisive moment where the abundance floodgates opened, but I’d be lying.

The reality is it’s not quite that simple.

There was the range of emotions I had to work through.

Anger – why the fuckk did I do this to myself?
Sadness – all those seemingly wasted years of pain
Fear – can I make up for those years?
Hurt – feeling the pain of not playing full out.
Guilt – I could have given my Daughter more time, fun etc if I only I had the internal resources.

Feelings aren’t always logical, but they sure can FEEL logical.

Think about a time when you said something in the heat of an emotional moment where you felt completely justified, only to calm down and realise you were way out of line.

Any kind of emotional meltdown, has set backs and repercussions. Some may take longer than others, but what’s important is that you start to get back to your kinda normal routine.

Going through this experience can leave you feeling dazed, confused and unsure about what next step to take.

Here’s 3 tips to pick up the pieces, regroup and get back into action taking mode.

Go Back To Basics

Write down the top 3 things you need to focus on each day to get yourself back on track. My go-to simple basics are wake early/sleep early, exercise, lemon water. Don’t over complicate things.

Understand + Share The Lessons

Share with your peeps to connect AND relate. Allowing them into your world cultivates a deeper relationship from near and afar. Your experiences and life lessons should always be the basis of your teachings.

Track The Cosmos

Understand what’s going on in the universe. What phase of the moon are we in? Is Mercury retrograding? What lunar month are we in?

It’s important to write this all down, because you may find that it’s all in alignment with cosmic traffic which affects us all on a level we can’t even begin to fathom.

But be warned: This is NOT an excuse for inaction, it’s about working WITH the energy of the universe which brings to light what’s working/not working.

Don’t settle for less than you deserve gorgeous – it’s time to stop making excuses about why you’re not where you’d like to be.

If you’re struggling to finish what you started, or aren’t really sure why you just can’t seem to get your shit together, then I’d love to invite you to work with me.

I’ve got a few spots available for 1:1 Mentoring with me.

Lunar Hustle + Flow Mentoring is all about getting more done with less push. Tapping into your feminine and masculine energies, while aligning with the lunar cycle. It’s time to stop playing by someone else’s rules. Be the Feminine Badass, you’ve been fearfully hiding away. It’s time to step up and SHOW up to share your message, and get more of the great stuff in your life.

We’ll look at your big picture plan, and then break it down into steps in a workable time line.

It’s about less push, more hustle + flow.

NB: This is ONLY for you if you’re ready + willing to do the work. We’re going to dig in and MOVE forward to create the lifestyle you crave.

We’ll get together for a weekly jam session, which will most likely include butt-kicking, nurturing, cheerleading, accountability, strategy and lunar loving.
