Water

Each Frequency has a unique way of seeing the world, which is why it’s so helpful to know which position your Frequencies are in, because that’s the area of your life they’ll impact the most directly.  If a Frequency is in your Foundational position, it’ll effect you in an overarching, foundational way.  If it’s in your Professional position, it’ll effect how you make and earn money.  Both can have impacts on your relationship to money and some money blocks you may be facing.

Each Frequency has strengths and challenges, including the way it relates to and sees money.

Understanding how your Frequency views money, and thus the common blocks or challenges it might have with it gives you insight and ultimately power to work on that money block baked into your life experience

Water is a naturally entrepreneurial and independent Frequency.  Think about actual water — it always finds a way.  You can’t break it, it just transmutes into something else and finds its way back to the water cycle.   Water tends to take more risks with money, because it’s not afraid of the consequences.  Water Frequencies also work on their own time table, they’re impossible to rush, so that independent, unhurried sense of timing is going to impact their relationship to money as well.

A money block that is commonly associated with the Water Frequency is being nervous to show your true self to the world, because you’re a deep, independent thinker.  You might feel that your way of being doesn’t fit into most professional structures, so you feel stifled or constrained, and thus, shut down a lot of your earning potential trying to fit in.  

Water is an incredibly unique Frequency and often the most misunderstood in western society.  Create ways to express yourself, and bring more of your big picture vision into your work.  The more you can let your full self flow, the more people can truly see and ‘get’ you.   If you find yourself in a professional situation that feels great to you, don’t take it for granted because that’s likely a hard won moment for you.   Remember, Water needs boundaries to bounce off of to find flow, so financially, working in an environment where you’re able to bring your whole self to the table and there are strong boundaries in place is going to be gold for you.

TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS, HOW DO YOU PRIMARILY MAKE YOUR MONEY?

Women who desire thoughtful and experienced support with their writing can work with me 1:1 or attend one of my writing retreats. I’m also building a Patreon page which allows people to directly support my memoir and essay writing.

WATER FREQUENCY BUSINESS OWNERS OFTEN NEED A LOT OF TIME TO FLOAT AND JUST BE WITH THEMSELVES.  HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH NEEDING TIME TO ‘FLOAT’ AND MEET EXTERNAL DEADLINES?

I am getting better at it, carving out time in my schedule to do nothing. A big part of being in business for myself is the control I can have over my time and deadlines so I use this to make more space in my week. Before I learned to do this though I was always struggling and feeling stressed.

HOW HAVE YOU CREATED A SCHEDULE THAT ALLOWS YOU TIME TO FLOAT AND GO DEEP, WHILE STILL MOVING YOUR BUSINESS FORWARD?

I block out writing time first in my schedule, and then down time. After that I see how much space is left for clients. I’ve recently removed myself from social media and some other commitments that seemed like “extras”. I think the key is knowing what really needs to happen and what is just a distraction or time waster. For me, my writing comes first right now and so I am sure to create a schedule that honours that commitment.

I NOTICE WATER FREQUENCIES CAN ROTATE BETWEEN FEELING FROZEN AND FEELING IN FLOW. WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU’RE “FROZEN” HOW DO YOU THAW OUT AND GET BACK TO A PLACE OF FLOW?

I do yoga. Or just sit on my mat. I take the time to step away from my computer and be with myself instead of being distracted by everything available online. I might take some time to write with a pen and paper, on my couch, curled up with a cup of tea. I find that’s a great way to get my creative juices flowing again. And I read, a lot.

WATER FREQUENCY BUSINESS OWNERS TEND TO NEED STRONG CONTAINERS AND BOUNDARIES IN THEIR BUSINESS, WHAT TOOLS CAN YOU NOT LIVE WITHOUT THAT HELP YOU CREATE STRONG SYSTEMS, CONTAINERS AND BOUNDARIES?

Acuity. Seriously. Having my schedule make sense and sync to my calendar is absolutely key to my success as a business owner. And I’m militant with my Google Calendar.

FINALLY, HOW DID UNDERSTANDING YOUR WATER FREQUENCY IMPACT YOUR BUSINESS ACTIONS AND GROWTH?

I finally learned that all that free time I so desperately craved wasn’t resistance or procrastination but essential to my success. That changed how I looked at my days, I stopped judging myself for not doing enough. I became more productive when I was working. I have better ideas and feel so much more ease in my business. It was one of the biggest life changers for me, my business and my life.
