Embracing Transformation: Life of Belief & Empowerment with Amber Nicole | Caryn Meininger Podcast

I had to do all of that in order to really step into this new reality in which I live now. Designing my life, believing that the best outcome is my outcome. You know, sometimes you get so wrapped up in the worst thing happening and the next thing you know, you create that because you never really allow yourself to feel through it because you're so. You're afraid to. Because you're like, oh my God, I'm going to create it. But you have to feel through it in order to get through it so that you can transmute it. And so that's what I want. Go ahead. Yeah.

Because the very you're trying to avoid is the very thing you're creating.

Exactly. Every single time. Every single time.

Amber. I'm so happy to have you here.

I am so happy to be here, Karen. Thanks for having me.

Yeah, I just can't wait to dive into your story and hear about your Empress Expressions business. And you say that you're a living soul profiler. Tell me how you got to this point. How did you come up with Empress Expression and learning about the living soul Profiler, telling. Tell me a little bit more about that.

Yeah. So Empress Expressions has really come a long way. I was really thinking about this before we met, before this meeting, and Empress Expressions really came out of a very pivotal point in My life, I had gone through a divorce. Actually, it was my second divorce. And we had been married for 10 years together for 11. We had. We have a daughter who. Who is now 4. And when I was younger, I actually had a son, and his father and I were married for a year. So my son now is 14. And so with my second divorce, my second marriage ending, I was just in this very reflective state. And I remember I moved from the town that I was living in and moved to Austin where my mom lives, and moved me and my kids in with my mom and my brother. And so I did that. I did the single mother sort of thing for a whole year. And it was so difficult. And my mom raised me as a single mother. And I just remember thinking, like, wow, this is wild. Like, this is crazy. And luckily I had my mom and my brother to help, and both of my children's fathers are super involved. So we always have had a great relationship, but it just still felt very heavy on me. And so I get through that year. And I actually about three years ago, joined a mystery school, metaphysical school, and really dove into tantra and became a certified and ordained tantra practitioner. And so I really was diving into that practice and learning all the things. And just as time went on through all the things that I was experiencing in my personal life, I was still diving into the Tantra and was like kind of, I was still connecting to different people and connected and came across some different body work. And so as I was learning the body work, which is more of like hands on versus energy projection, I just kept like, there was this thing that was like being conceived inside of me, you know, like, it was just this idea that kept brewing and I could feel this thing growing inside of me. And I started. I was like, you know what? This is going to have to have a name. Like, I'm going to have to put a name to this. I could see this being something that reaches, you know, women across the globe. And in the time of me doing the single mother deal and really starting to look at how I mother and you know, what that was looking like for me in that moment and what I saw my future looking like as a mother Empress Expressions is still brewing. It's still brewing. This is before I even knew the name. And so as I'm diving more into the Tantra, as I'm recognizing that I want to be a coach, because I was always into helping people. And even when I was doing some, when I was in college, I even took a couple of courses and had a Minor in psychology. So it's in me to help, you know. And so Empress Expressions is brewing and all the things. And I had a moment where, you know, things got pretty heavy and dark for me, and that is where the mothering thing started to come up for me. And I just kept seeing this life that was so different than what I was actually living. And I never saw myself struggling. Like, I never saw myself being without or barely making it. And the life that I was currently or the reality that I was currently experiencing, that's what it felt like. And so from there, Empress Expressions is still brewing within me, not quite having any kind of a brand name or company name or anything like that business name. And so I was like, well, what kind of a life do you want to live, Amber? Like, what does it look like? What does it feel like? What is the name? And. And so Goddess came up, and I was like, goddesses, you so much, right? My LLC has Goddess. And I was like, that's already kind of taken. I. Then I thought about Queen, and I was like, everybody uses Queen. And then Empress came to me one day in meditation. I was like, empress, Empress is what it is. Like, Empress feels good. It feels good when it radiates through my body. It feels good when it comes out of my mouth. So going back just a little bit. I'm also a cosmetologist, and I've been licensed for a decade now, and anything that I do, I like to master it. So I actually ended up mastering eyelash extensions. And so.

Okay, so don't judge mine right now, because they're totally falling out.

You look great. You look great. So I had done that for 10 years, had that business, grew that business from, you know, ground up. And so I'm thinking, Empress, Empress is there. I'm like, empress is definitely a part of it. And I'm like, but, you know, I still have this part of myself that I don't want to give up. Like, I'm definitely transitioning that business from doing the technician artist part of it day in, day out, and, you know, transitioning into becoming a trainer and selling a course and stuff like that. So I don't want to leave. I don't want to lose that part of myself, because a lot of me connecting with women was through, you know, lashing and, you know, connecting with all of these spiritual abilities that I realized that I had working with my clients. So then it came to me. It was like, expressions. Like, there are many expressions to the Empress. You have this artsy side of you. You have this coaching side of you, you have the spiritual side of you. And so I was like, that is me. And so Empress Expressions really came to be because I had to look at myself. I really had to look at myself. And in looking at myself, I also was aware that any clients that I receive in and through Emperor's Expressions as a soul wisdom coach for women, they're going to be reflections of me as well. So with that, I was like, I'm tapping into and understanding all of the expressions of myself. That's exactly what I'm going to do for other women, is help them tap into their Emperor self and be able to express themselves. And so that's where Empress Expressions came from. Like just me really having to look at everything and really see all of the many expressions within myself instead of trying to keep myself boxed into something.

I love it. I love the name and I love, you know, yes, we're multiple expressions of ourself. And learning how to accept all parts of us and being able to express them fully and being in an authentic true, you're like being authentic and living your truth feels so empowering. And this is so inspiring to help women be able to step into their power to express, to love all parts of them, be their authentic self and bring in the spiritual, bring in the masculine, bring in the feminine. All of the different parts of us that sometimes feel a little lost or maybe like, hey, don't forget about me over here. And the fact that you're able to kind of cohesively bring that all together just sounds so beautiful and magical. And I feel women are just a complete unique expression. And we're so suppressed and so afraid what people think and you know, the judgment. And like you said, there's a mirror, right? Like who we're coaching or who we see or who we interacting is a reflection of our own projections and our own judgments. And being able to tap into that awareness and that and starting to accept it so it can move through you is really powerful. And I just want to applaud you for creating such a inspirational type business and learning tantra. I want to learn that. I don't know anything about tantra, but it sounds like such a nice way to express your sexuality and what feels good to for you. And I just think it's so beautiful. So I really wanted to applaud you on being able to create that, you know, as well as being a mom, being in it sounded like some sort of darkness for a little while and being able to come out and transform into, you know, this Empress expression of yourself. And I absolutely love and adore that about Yale. So, you know, thank you. And I just want you guys listening to know you can create, you can live your truth. Anybody can do it. You just sometimes need a little bit of help getting.

Yeah.

And pulling it out and pulling these expressions out.

So thank you.

You also said that you're a living soul profiler, so I want to hear what that is, and then do you use that in the Empress expressions Coaching?

Yeah. So the Living Soul Guidance System is a numerolog system. And so as a certified Nordain profiler, I do use it within my coaching. And the way that it works is the Living Soul guidance system is based off of universal principle and nine universal principles. And each universal principle is attached or is in representation of an archetype. So there's also nine living soul archetypes that you know are in or in correlation with a universal principle. So within each archetype, you have gender, energy, positions, you have the core values, you have the driving pursuits, the division of self, the love styles, the elements. So each archetype embodies at all of those things. So the way that it works per individual is it's based off of your birthday. So we take the numbers from your birthday, we calculate that up, and from your birthday, you receive four archetypes. You have a moon, which governs your subconscious and your emotions. You have your sun archetype, which governs your ambition and your ego. Then you have your earth archetype, and that governs your heart connection, your body. And then you have your living soul archetype, which is influenced by all of them, and that is your consciousness. And so we all have a profile report that includes those four numbers, those four archetypes. So, for example, I am a 5, 7, 9, 3. And so each one of those numbers are archetypes. So the way that I use that in my coaching is it really helps me understand the individual that I'm working with. It helps me understand how they're going to communicate, how I should communicate with them. It's going to help me understand, you know, their superpowers. Right. What parts of themselves do they need to really tap into to help maybe really cultivate their manifestation process, to understand their love style. Right. Each archetype also has a love style, and so it can also help with understanding the compatibility to a potential partner or to a lifelong partner that you've had. The Living soul is absolutely amazing, and it is a game changer. I actually speak about it quite a bit on my YouTube channel. And you can also do forecasts for the year. Like, we're currently in the year of eight, which is the year of the communicator, the soul communicator. And this year is about technology. We were just talking about technology and just how things are just completely blowing up right now when it comes to the web and AI and networking. So this is a year of expansion. This is a year of getting out there, speaking about yourself, meeting new people, making the connections, the commerce, all of the things, exchanges that today, this year is about that. And you know, eight is also, if you turn it on its side is the infinity sign. So this is a very, very expansive year. So you can forecast the year, you can forecast the month, and you can forecast the day. Within that you also have the masculine, you have the feminine, you have the androgynous. You know, we hear a lot about masculine and feminine energy, especially floating around on the web, but you rarely, rarely about androgynous energy, which is the balancing, the balancing energy of the two. So like if you have the yin and yang circle and you're looking at that, you have the black and you have the white side. Well, within each side, the black side, which is going to be the yin, you also have the white dot. Now on the other side, you have the white and it has the black dot, which is going to be the yang. Well, it just lets you know that you can't have one without the other. Right now in the center of what breaks those two up or brings them together, depending on how you choose to use that or channel that energy. That is the woo we, that is the androgynous energy. That is the balancing energy for the two. That is that position, that neutral position that one can take and then decide, okay, I'm going to take a neutral position. And now I'm going to choose do I want to lean more into my feminine or don't want to lean more to my masculine. So I am huge on talking about the androgynous energy one because it's in my chart quite a bit, but also because you just don't hear about it. And it's truly a power position to be in. It's where you find peace and detachment, right, so that you can make your next move. So the living soul is just, it's a beautiful, beautiful layout. I feel so, so grateful to be a part of the first wave of profilers to be certified and ordained in this system. And it's a game changer. It's an absolute game changer.

So is there A way to like, I want to know mine. Like, how would I have to go to a practitioner in order to learn my chart and what's in it? Or are there like places to go where you can put in the like with human. It sounds very similar to human design in a lot of way. Where you can go and you can put your birthday and there'll be kind of like a rapport. And obviously there's like human design readers who go deeper. Is there something similar with the living soul, like, or is it you just have to find a practitioner and then they deep dive with you.

So luckily, because you and I are now connected, there is a link that is directly connected to me, but then also I have a separate link where you just click on that and you go in and you put your information and it's a super simple form. And you put your birth in, you put your email address in, a few more, you know, bits of information and you would pay a $65 profile report fee and literally like in a couple of minutes, it's sent straight to your email address. And it's a beautiful layout. It's about 30 plus pages and it goes into detail about your energetic profile, your energetic makeup, you know, because the universe is based off of numbers. So you over and over and over have seen just how surprised people are about how exact this report is. So that is how you would get that. You would simply click on the link, which I have at the bottom in the description box of all of my YouTube videos. I also have a link tree where people can go and click the link as well. I'm in the process of launching a website and just all the things. But there are several places right now that you can go and put your information in, pay that one time small self investment and get your profile report. And then from there, nine times out of 10, you're going to need some help. Right. Understanding exactly what you're looking at. And so then you would get some time with me and we would just go through it all and chop it up and talk about it. And it's a lot there, but it is so eye opening. So eye opening. And it's a game changer. Game changer.

Awesome. I'll put that link in the show notes so anyone who's listening and interested, we can. I'm gonna go and I want to check it out. I'm really curious. It sounds really cool. So something that you shared in your story and I want to pick your brain on this and you said in order to create and show up Fully to your business as a mom made a really hard decision to let the father take on full responsibility and full time, just from like a very personal perspective. What was that like?

It was one of the hardest decisions I think I've ever made in my life. And it's a work that I constantly work at too, even to this day. So, like, I shared, you know, in my story that I was an extremely hands on mother. I had my son when I was younger. I was about 20 when I had my son. And I was pretty much all he knew. I mean, we had family and his people, you know, he had people in his life, but he was my kid. Like he was always with me, right? So. And then I have my daughter who is four going on five. And when my son turned nine, I had this really great idea. I was like, I'm gonna homeschool. And I always had this idea in the back of my head. Even when I was pregnant with him, I was like, homeschooling sounds like something I should do. And when I hit that stage in my life, he was about nine. I pulled him out of third grade. This is before the pandemic. I pulled him out, went and sat in the principal's office and filled out the withdrawal papers and answered all the questions. Like it was very, very decisive, very matter of fact, very intentional. It wasn't something that I did haphazardly. It wasn't something that I was like, oh, this is a great idea, let's go do this. It was something that I even talked to my son about for about a year. And my husband at the time I talked to him and I talked to his dad and so pulled him out. At the same time, I just found out I was pregnant with my daughter. Now my son's 9. So I'm literally like. And my daughter was a huge, huge surprise. And so I'm just like, oh. And I had already talked to my son about it or whatever. And anyways, I we pull him out. I'm pregnant. And so we did a year of deschooling, then we moved into homeschooling. I had my daughter, I'm nursing, making baby food. I'm the PE coach at our homeschool co op. I'm still running my lash business. Like when I say I was a hands on mother, like I was growing hands to be so hands on. Like I was doing all the things it felt like and through it all, and you know, looking back at it now, that idea was planted into me for a reason. And I think it's Why I am where I am now through it all. That's when I realized I had to mother differently. I was tapped out. I was tired. I was really wrapped up in that idea of supermom without even being aware that I was wrapped up into being a supermom. It was more of like, this is what you're supposed to do. This is what is expected of you. This is what other women do. I'm seeing other homeschool mothers that have double, triple the kids that I have that have been homeschooling for forever. You know, seeing my mom, you know, be a single mother with me, my grandmother, just the women in my life. And so I definitely had this, you know, idea that had been placed before me as to how I should mother. But during that process of homeschooling is when I realized I was like, I'm going to have to do something different. Completely, completely different. And it's amazing how the divine works because you connect with people along the way, and at first, you may not quite know why, and then you figure it out. And I connected with a sorority group, a spiritual sorority group, and connected with a woman who was mothering differently. And I remember when I first heard her story, I was like, that's crazy. She don't have her kids. I was like, who does that? Like, there's no way, like. And I just completely. I judged it, you know, at first, I completely judged it, but in the back of my mind, I'm like, oh, my God, that sounds amazing. Like, and for it to work, you know, like, everyone's happy. Everyone's full and satisfied. And so the more I listened to her story, the more I really started to give myself permission to even think about it, let alone. I didn't really talk about it to anybody, but just to even entertain the idea within myself, her story really helped me give myself permission to even think about it. And that was the beginning when I realized that I could think about it, and then I realized I could actually feel into it. And then when I actually gave myself permission to create that life for myself, it's just been a game changer. And so, overall, like I said earlier, I went through the divorce, and I was still in that. And this is around the time I was giving myself permission of even thinking about it. And then I was starting to talk about it to, like, my mom and my sisters, my sorority sisters. I was starting to actually vocalize this thing now, but automatically feeling shame and guilt around it, right? Just instantly, like, what kind of mother would you be? Like, who does that? Like, what are people gonna think about you? You went from homeschooling to now you're talking about the kids are gonna go live with their father. Like, oh, Amber's definitely lost her shit. Like, what is going on with Amber? I was thinking all of it. I was thinking about it all, but that's what I did, is I continued to think about it, and I continued to feel into all of those things that I was thinking about and feeling and the shame and the guilt and really starting to do work around that and realize that this is my life, you know? And I truly believe that my kids, they understood who they chose as their mother on a soul level, you know? And so after doing, I'd say, about a year and a half of work around that clearing and releasing the shame and the guilt and the blame and just all the different things, like I said, I moved to Austin and was living with my mom. I'm actually moving in a couple of days to get my own place now. We're all kind of going our own ways, so this is huge, huge milestone for me. But like I said, I moved this way with my kids. Still very wrapped up in that, oh, my baby's got to go with me. I got to keep them with me. Even though their fathers are pretty much on board with, you know, taking them on full time, I was still wrapped up in that. I can't do that. Like, you get a divorce and you leave your kids. Like, it was just. I was still doing the work on myself, right? So we did a whole year here, like I said. And after that year was up and all of the work I was doing, I decided and I drove my kids to their fathers and had packed up their stuff. My son wasn't 100% happy about it. He wanted to come back and go to school here because he had made some friends here in Austin. So I had that. I was dealing with, too, the guilt of, like, well, my baby wants to be like, you know, you're a mother. You want to make your kids feel good, and you want to do the things for them. So, yeah, I packed my kids up and took them to their father's a year ago next year month. And, yeah, it's been interesting. But overall, it was one of the best decisions that I ever made for myself and my children, because for my son, he's 14. It's time for him to be around his dad, you know, and his dad has done so much work on himself and has just grown as an amazing person, and he's very stable. He's better than I've ever seen him. And since he's had our son, I see him lighting up and doing things that I don't even think that he would have, you know, known that he could do if he hadn't been, in so many ways, granted this opportunity. Because as a woman, we kind of, you know, as women sometimes and as mothers, we kind of want to, you know, control things, especially when it comes to the kids, you know, like, mama knows best sort of thing. And so for me to ask this of him and let him know, be, hey, like, I need help. Like, I can't do this by myself. And our son is getting older and he needs his father, and his father agreed. And so that has just been a beautiful cultivation of their relationship. My son and I have always been close, but I feel like we're even closer now. Like, he calls me and talks to me about all the things and the girls and like, we have the best relationship now. We're learning Spanish together. Like, I have the energy that I didn't have before to show up as the mother that they actually deserve to be, you know, to have. And then my daughter, that was a tough one because she's a little girl, but that has been great too. Her dad absolutely loves loving and taking care of her and to see their relationship. And it really takes me back because as a young girl, my father wasn't involved in my life. And so I think it's beautiful that her dad is involved in her life, especially at this age now. You know, one of the things that I do know is I create my life. I design my life the way that I choose to. And at any point in time, all of this could change. But right now, this is what works for everyone. And my daughter is happy. Matter of fact, they're both going to be here this weekend to help me pack. I mean, I don't know how much the four year old is going to help, but my son's going to be here to help me pack. And it's just been this really. It's like that doing the hard thing and reaping a beautiful benefit. You know, this works. This works for my family. This works for our family system. And everybody supports everybody. Like, my children's fathers, they support me, like, and not only because I'm the mother of their children, but they see me and they saw my vulnerability and me asking for help and saying, hey, I can't do this on my own. And like, those two men do not play about me. Like, we're just, we're A system. We know and understand the assignment. And the assignment is to love on these children and take care of these children. And so I feel like I said so much, but it's really been an amazing thing and it's required tremendous devotion to my idea of how I choose to live my life. But overall, it has granted me access to the energy that I need to work on myself as an individual to be able to show up as that soul wisdom coach. For women, whether they are mothers or they're not mothers, whether they want to mother in an alternative way or they don't, I have more energy to show up as the mother, to show up as the coach. I'm not trying to do it all, but I'm doing what I can, do you know what I'm saying? Like, it was just a matter of me surrendering, honestly, surrendering, surrendering, not being so wrapped up. Well, who's going to do my daughter's hair? Hair is going to be all over her head all the time, letting that go, you know, my daughter is fine. She's great. Like, I see her like every other week. We have a great relationship, my son and I. We like just surrendering and trusting the divine, trusting spirit to do things that I can't do. And first and foremost, being, you know, someone letting me know, hey, you have permission to live life the way that you want to live life. And you are not required to live in a structure that doesn't feel good to you. Because ultimately we're here to create. We're here to create our lives and to design our lives. And, you know, as what I believe is God and goddesses on the planet, it's not always easy, right, in creating your life because not only are you God, goddess on the planet, but you're also living out your creation at the same time. So having the time and the energy and the support too, whether that's a group or a coach or whatever, to go through the ups and downs, to embrace the contrast, the duality and the polarities that are at play. I have gained access to that. I've gained access to more energy. And I can decide that I'm going to put it into this, I'm going to put it into that. And I wouldn't be here if I hadn't really got real with myself and decided that, hey, at this point in time in my existence, my children living with their fathers, that's the best thing for everybody. And it has proven to be that, hands down, day in and day out.

So, wow, talk about stepping into your Power. I mean, I feel women, especially. The mom guilt, the shame. Oh, yeah, the judgment, all the burnout, the overwhelm, the to do list, all we have all of. We have all of it. And it's like we're carrying a backpack with rocks in it and we just want to take the rocks out and when you're in a place and maybe we can come back here for a second, but like the guilt and the shame and like you're doing this work around it and finding compassion for yourself and for giving the judgment you have about yourself, that's like really deep work. And forgiveness work is really challenging and really hard. And so coming from this place of I'm doing the highest good for all, everyone is happy, I'm supported, I'm thriving in my business, my kids are happy, the fathers of my children are blossoming into these beautiful souls. And the lens that you see life is just so incredible. And I just really want to applaud because, yeah, I'm sure there are people listening to this podcast that might come with a judgment or might want to do something differently. But to be able to go deep and know this is what is for the highest good of all, this is. I give myself permission to create my own destiny and create my own path. I give myself permission to forgive myself. Right. I think we feel if we forgive, then we're condoning or we're allowing. It's not allowing. We're accepting. And when we can accept what is, we can move through it and we can get to the other side. And I mean, this is just such a power like. Like you wanted. You're bringing me to tears because for you to have the empowerment that you have and to know what was best and to use that inner knowing to show up in your full truth and your authentic self and be able to keep going and keep thriving. And knowing your children are thriving and having more of a conn with your son than you ever did before is just showing you that you don't have to follow all the societal norms and all the expectations of what people think of you and how you're supposed to be perceived. And we get so caught up in how we're supposed to be perceived. I do too. My family dynamic is opposite than most. My husband's a stay at home parent. You know, there's judgments about that. There's judgments from myself, there's judgments from others, and it's like really having the compassion and fully accepting what is. Like I am fully accepting what is, and now I can move through it and Now I'm free.

Right?

What do most women want? Maybe not even women, not to be gender specific, but we want to feel free.

Yeah.

And to be able to live your life from a place of neutrality and compassion and forgiveness and freedom and dropping into your body to allow your body to tell you and guide you and show up for you in living your dream.

Yeah.

I mean, where you are. And I know we're all a work in progress and we're all. Not all. Most that are listening to this podcast want to be better and want to grow. And this is a story that just shares. It's possible. Shift your lens, look at things from the highest good of all. Everyone's happy and you're fully supported.

Exactly. Exactly.

I mean, that is incredible and so beautiful and so powerful. And so if you're listening, I just want you guys to put your hands, hands over your heart and really love yourself and be in your truth and be in your authenticity and do what you know is right. It doesn't necessarily mean it's the easy way, but showing up and knowing and following that intuition and following that gut and forgiving the judgments that you have about yourself, you are now a mirror for your son. You're a mirror for your daughter. You're a mirror for your exes. Like, they are all an expression of you, but in your highest vibration.

Exactly.

And it is just so incredibly beautiful. And I hope that everyone listening is inspired as much as I am, because. Yeah, yeah, it's a lot. It's a lot to forgive, and it's a lot of judgment to heal through and healing through. Like you said, you had a lot of shame and guilt around it, and I don't know how deep of work that looks like, but I'm sure a lot of forgiveness and tapping into your truth. So I really appreciate everything you've shared today.

And I must say that the support of my sisters from the Blue Butterfly, the Blue Butterfly effect, initiation, that hands down, is what literally held me up. They held my vision when I was unable to see it, when I was like, oh, my God, I'm literally screwing my kids lives up. Like, you know, when I'm having those moments. And they held my vision up. And so support is. It's tremendous, especially with something like this, you know, because my mom didn't get it at first. My grandmother didn't get it, some of my friends didn't get it. And usually, like, those are the people that you go to for support. Right. But they didn't understand. Now, of course, my mom's on Board because she sees how everyone's flourishing. But it's the support. I had to have support. And I just. Yeah, and it's, you know, it's an ongoing work. You know, it's not something that you're like, oh, I'm done with that part. You know, my kids are still growing. I'm still very involved in their lives and stuff like that. So I still have moments where I have to do the work. But the support, hands down, has been amazing. And so that is what I like to offer through Empress Expressions to women is support, you know, support in not only what I've shared today, but also in, you know, honoring your inner masculine as a woman. You know, respecting your inner masculine feeling deeply back into your body and your emotions. I had to do all of that in order to really step into this new reality in which I live now, designing my life, believing that the best outcome is my outcome. You know, sometimes you get so wrapped up in the worst thing happening and the next thing, you know, you create that because you never really allow yourself to feel through it because you're so afraid. You're afraid to because you're like, oh, my God, I'm going to create it. But you have to feel through it in order to get through it so that you can transmute it. And so that's what I want. Go ahead. Yeah.

Because the very thing you're trying to avoid is the very thing you're creating.

Exactly. Every single time. Every single time. So that's what Empress Expressions is about, is supporting women tap into their soul wisdom. I feel like that was a lot of my work was tapping back into my innate soul wisdom, like who I am and what I already know that maybe I've forgotten, you know, so. Yeah. And one other thing I like to throw in there is I'm also working with plant medicines as well. So along with the Tantra, I do have a ceremonies and micro dosing with psilocybin. So those are different things that I also like to incorporate into my coaching practices.

Beautiful. So if there is one key takeaway that our listeners can get from you that they can just take aligned action starting right now, what would that be?

Trust what feels good. Yeah. Trust what feels good? There's something there. If it feels good, there's something there that should be explored. So I would say trust what feels good. I love that. Yeah.

So, Amber, where can everybody find you? Where. Where is a good place if they want to connect with you? Where can they find you?

So I have my YouTube channel, Empress Expressions. I Believe you can also find it under Amber Nicole, but for sure, Empress Expressions, I have a link tree which is Amber Nicole 33. I also have an Instagram Empress Expressions, but instead of an S on the expressions it's a Z. And then there's a Facebook page I have which is Amber Nicole and Empress expressions. So Facebook, IG and YouTube. And on YouTube I have several videos there. I have over 120 at this point. And so right now I'm actually releasing three videos a week, Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. So that channel really talks about like self development, esoteric type, content, manifestation, spirituality, awakening, enlightenment, just all things like, you know, esoteric and energy and all that goodness. So I love it. Yeah.

Go support me.

Yeah.
