WTF did she just say?
Oh my goshhhhhhhhhh welcome to my podcast!!! I'm so excited that you're here and I am honoured that you choose to place ME in your AirPods every week!!!
Here's a bit about me:
My name is Sandra. I'm a business coach for women, a feng shui practitioner and a 2x national leadership award winner. In saying all of that though, I feel like I'm just a girl from Saskatchewan, who is put on this earth to inspire you to step into your power ... right fuckin' now.
I think that all too often, we convince ourselves that there is nothing we can do ... that our life "is what it is" and that ONE DAY we might be able to have the life that we dreamed of.
Uhmmmm NO.
That's bullshit.
Sorry ... but it's true. In a split second, you can choose differently. In THIS moment, you can take that courageous step toward the life you desire. It's my job, my gift and my obsession to help you share your sparkle with the world and I'm excited to get started.
You got this. Let's go.
Sandra

I'm so glad that you're here. You are listening to what the fuck did she just say with your host. That's me, sandra Priestly. I'm all about living our best life and finding our zone of brilliance and then removing the resistance so that we can go all in. I say random, crazy shit, which is why I called this podcast the way that I did, and I really hate long drawn out intros, so let's fucking go. Welcome back to another episode of what the fuck did she just say?
Speaker 1:Today, I want to talk to you about something that's probably keeping you stuck, keeping you playing small, and that's misalignment. Or, more specifically, it's you're forcing yourself to fit into something that just doesn't feel like you anymore. It's like the pair of jeans that you've grown out of and you keep them in your closet and you don't know why, and you're trying to fucking use a coat hanger to get them on, like in the eighties, and uh, they just they don't fit anymore, but we keep them around. It's not the vibe girl, like we got to get rid of those. Okay, so let's get into it. One of the biggest reasons we feel stuck, whether it's in business relationships or just waking up in the whether it's in business relationships or just waking up in the morning. It's because we're trying to make things work that don't actually fit us anymore. We outgrow strategies, branding, friendships, goals. We outgrow weight loss methods too. Right, I mean, what worked for me when I was 30 definitely does not fucking work for me at 53. Like we shift, we got to shift things. But instead of trusting that change is part of growth, we hold ourselves back. We don't want to rock the boat, we're afraid of losing people and we think what if this doesn't work? What if this backfires? But what if staying stuck is actually the thing that's holding you back from your next level? What if the discomfort of that misalignment is actually worse than the fear of change?
Speaker 1:I recently had a call with an intuitive friend of mine and we were talking about how I was stepping into this new, more fun energy. I had been earlier saying that I really felt uninspired by social media. I mean I really cannot stand that we have gotten to a place in the world where open harassment and bullying seems to be rewarded. Like it's disgusting to me. I don't know why anyone thinks it's okay to openly, publicly comment and shit on another human being. It is fascinating to me that anyone believes that this is okay. So I talked to my friend, my intuitive friend, and she said that you know, from her insight I was stepping into a more giddy, more fun me and in that instant, even though I was talking to her about moving away from social media, in that instant I knew I knew I needed to not necessarily get away from social media, but to move more into my fun self, to move more into just being more of who I am. Because I'd moved away from it, I was feeling really boring and blah and I knew instantly what I was supposed to do. I needed to change my Facebook name.
Speaker 1:So my Facebook business page used to be called the Feng Shui Chick and I mean it was called that for years. I use the word chick even still, all the time and I think that I am really recognized as the woman who does feng shui her way. And really I talk about feng shui in a way that we can use our space to manifest and use our space to speak to our subconscious mind and reprogram it for what we want to achieve. And so the feng shui chick is like sure it describes me. Chick is like sure it describes me. But every time I went to my page to post on it, I just didn't feel very inspired. It was just like wah, wah, wah, charlie Brown's teacher, and I felt like I didn't want to show up there While I was having this discussion with my friend. I instantly knew what I needed to do. I got off the call, went to Facebook and changed my name to Feng Shui and other F words. It felt fun, it felt right, it felt like me and it was like the universe responded just going, just going. Oh, finally, fuck, here she is and all of a sudden I was able to not only post a little edgier, a little bit more of the way that I speak, but also I had more engagement.
Speaker 1:I've also had double the viewers on this podcast. I've had people reach out to me and, just in general, it's easier for me to show up, and that's always the trade-off when you start showing up in full alignment, in fully who you are, the people who were never really your people, they'll drop off and that will be okay. I did lose one follower, but the ones who are meant for you, they show the fuck up for you All of a sudden. It's like what they normally would go. Oh yeah, there's Sandra, that's interesting. Great tip and scroll on. When I started posting, more like me, in the energy of me, they started responding to me, they started loving my posts and they started going to my podcast and they started messaging me on Facebook.
Speaker 1:So, knowing this story, I want you to ask yourself where are you still playing small? What are you forcing? That just doesn't feel like it fits anymore. Trust that making those aligned choices will always bring you the right people, the right opportunities and the right energy. You just have to take the first step, step into that alignment, step into that flow.
Speaker 1:I always imagine it as being one of those walking pads in the airport. I don't know what the fuck they're called, but when we're not really following the path that's meant for us, it's like we're walking along and there's a ton of people in this airport and everyone is in our way and we're stopping and we're turning around and we can't see the directions and we don't know where we're going and we miss the sign and off we go and it feels like everything just is more stagnant. But when we follow what we know to be true for us, when we follow our own alignment, when we do what's more like us, it is like getting out of that big, huge crowd and stepping onto the walking path and just going with it, just going with ease. No one is in our way, we're moving quite quickly and it feels effortless and fun. That is exactly what it's like when you start following your own aligned path, figuring out who you are and how you are going to live in this world. It's not always easy, it's not always easy to see for ourselves, but trust me, we know. We know Because as soon as I have, if I am in a clarity call with a client and I suggest that maybe they could do this one little tweak, you can see the sparkle in their eyes and all of a sudden it's. They know it is like stepping onto that walking path. It feels right.
Speaker 1:So if this hits home for you, send me a message. Tell me what you're letting go of to step into your next level. If you want a little bit of help just finding your path or finding that aligned action, I do have clarity calls. I do one-off calls all the time and the link is in the show notes. So just go to my website, click on coaching packages and you'll see the one call there. Have an amazing day, Find your aligned path and we'll see you in the next episode. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you've had some laughs, maybe some ideas, and that you've been inspired to take some type of action toward the life you've always dreamed of. If you feel so called, I would love it if you would share with your besties and leave a review down below. I look forward to bringing you along this journey and I will see you in the next episode.
