I'm so glad you decided to stop and sit awhile with me. Let's settle in and chat because we've got some things to uncover, some wisdom to share, and, let's be honest, some sanity to preserve.
Why Share My Story?
So why create something new? Why spill my life, my musings, and my chaotic brilliance onto the internet? Well, why the heck not?
We all have stories worth telling, and mine is no exception.
I'm Rachael, and let me tell you a bit about myself before we dive into the juicy stuff.
I'm not just a spiritual mentor, intuitive, writer, and multi-passionate entrepreneur.
I'm also a wife of 25 years to a coach and a proud home-educator of our three athlete children.
After a grueling yet rewarding 21-year stint in nursing and non-profit management, I decided to switch gears.
I transitioned into the world of spiritual entrepreneurship, education, and, of course, writing.
Who Am I?
I'm a little bit of everything—part healer, part mischief manager, part dreamer. I've got a knack for turning life's messes into beautiful mosaics, and I'm here to help you do the same.
Spiritual Mentor: Guiding you through the spiritual fog & overwhelm.
Intuitive: Because sometimes, we need a little nudge from the universe or maybe your soul sister here.
Writer: Words are my superpower, and I'm finally embracing them.
Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur: Because one passion just isn't enough.
Now, let's get real.
Life is messy, unpredictable, and often feels like a never-ending juggling act, especially for us mamas.
Between raising kids, supporting our spouses, managing households, and trying to find a moment of peace for ourselves, it's no wonder we often feel stretched thin.
But here's the thing: we don't have to do it all perfectly. For me, embracing the imperfection is where the real magic happens.
The Magic Ingredients
Here is what you will get by sitting at my table and chatting for a while. My background is a melting pot of science, spirituality, and a pinch of alchemy.
I’m a certified Meditation and Breathwork Facilitator, Soul Contract Practitioner, and Energy/Divine Healer.
Fancy titles aside, what does this mean for you? It means I've got a toolkit full of magic and practical advice to help you navigate this wild ride called life.
I draw from a rich tapestry of experiences and knowledge.
After all, life has a way of throwing us curveballs, and I've had my fair share.
From the highs of celebrating my children's victories on the sports field to the lows of questioning my own worth, every experience has shaped me into the person I am today. A
nd I'm here to share those lessons with you.
TMM Creative Studio and PrepStar Southwest
I’m the founder of TMM Creative Studio, a space where creativity and spirituality intersect. It’s a place where I help busy mamas like yourself tap into their creative potential while balancing the many roles they juggle.
Oh, and I’m also the co-owner of PrepStar Southwest, because why not add another hat to the collection?
At TMM Creative Studio, we focus on empowering women entrepreneurs get stuff done so they can make money all while loving on themselves and their families.
That neverending to-do list that is keeping us from what is important. So hand it off to my team and start enjoying your life.
PrepStar Southwest, on the other hand, is all about supporting young athletes.
As a sports mama, I understand the challenges and joys of raising kids in competitive sports.
PrepStar Southwest provides scouting and recruiting resources and services to athletes wanting to play at the next level.
My Writing Adventure
Yes, I’m co-authoring a book, letters here, and running a spiritual coaching business at the same time.
It’s been a journey filled with fear, excitement, and a whole lot of coffee. Writing was never my thing—at least, that’s what I told myself.
But here I am, pouring my heart and soul onto pages, sharing my story, my joys, my pains, and my healing journey.
Let me take you back to where it all began.
My fear of writing started in childhood when a note I wrote was found by one of my parents and I was scolded for my penned innocent childhood infatuation of one of my classmates.
I went on to tell myself that I was a good writer in high school or college and always opted to speak instead of write.
Over the years, people told me I should write, but I never did.
Now, here I am, co-authoring a book and writing Soul Brew'd letters.
Despite increased fears, insecurities, and anxieties, I view my fear of writing as my superpower.
I am using it to share my passions, story, joys, pains, trials, and view of life through my blog 'Her View from the Sidelines,' co-authoring a book, creating content, and sharing my superpower with the world.
Writing this book has been transformative.
It's pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to confront my fears head-on. It's also reminded me that we all have stories worth telling and that our voices matter.
By sharing my journey, I hope to inspire you to find your voice and share your story too.
Soul Brew'd Letters
The weekly letters and this online container are becoming my sacred online space.
It’s where I share my unique perspectives and stories, aiming to empower busy mothers to find harmony, prioritize self-care, and create ease on and off the sidelines.
It's about time we stopped running on empty and started filling our cups, don't you think?
Let’s face it, motherhood is no walk in the park.
It’s more like a marathon with occasional sprints and unexpected hurdles.
We juggle so much—kids, careers, households, and our sanity. Finding balance seems like a mythical quest, but I’m here to tell you it’s possible.
Through this blog, I’ll share practical tips, spiritual insights, and real-life stories to help you navigate the chaos and find your own rhythm.
The Real Deal: Science, Spirituality, and Alchemy
Although I'm no longer in the medical field, my extensive knowledge of science, spirituality, and alchemy deeply influences my work. Here’s how I break it down:
Alchemy: Turning life's lead into gold. It’s about transformation and finding beauty in the broken. We all have cracks and imperfections, and that's what makes us unique. The ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi, repairing broken pottery with gold, inspires me to see beauty in the broken and to embrace our flaws as part of our unique story.
Divine Healing: Tapping into the universal energy to heal ourselves and others. It’s about connecting with something greater than ourselves and realizing that we are all part of this vast, interconnected web of life.
Meditation and Breathwork: Tools to calm the mind and connect with our inner selves. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to lose sight of our inner peace. Meditation and breathwork are powerful practices that help us reconnect with our true selves and find stillness amidst the chaos.
Energetics: Understanding how energy flows through us and impacts our well-being. Everything is energy, and by understanding and working with our energetic systems, we can enhance our health and vitality.
Nutrient-Dense Nutrition and Plant Medicine: Food is medicine, and by nourishing our bodies with wholesome, nutrient-dense foods, we can support our overall well-being. Additionally, plant medicine, including herbs and CBD, can offer powerful healing benefits.
My Mission
My mission is simple yet profound: empower 100,000 conscious individuals and families committed to deep self-healing and transformation. I want to help you find harmony, prioritize self-care, and experience ease on and off the sidelines. We juggle so much—kids, careers, households, and our sanity. It's about time we put ourselves first.
Motherhood often feels like a series of selfless acts, but self-care is not selfish.
It's essential.
When we take care of ourselves, we are better equipped to care for our families and fulfill our roles.
Through my writings, I aim to provide you with the tools, inspiration, and support you need to prioritize yourself and embrace your own healing journey.
The Journey Ahead
So, what can you expect? Well, a little bit of everything:
Real Talk: Honest, open, and sometimes sarcastic musings on life, motherhood, and everything in between. I'm not here to sugarcoat things. Life is messy, and that's okay. Let's embrace the mess together.
Healing Wisdom: Tips, tricks, and insights on how to embark on your self-healing journey. From practical advice to spiritual insights, I'll share the tools and techniques that have helped me and others on this path.
Spiritual Musings: Exploring the intersection of spirituality and everyday life. Spirituality is not about escaping reality; it's about embracing it fully and finding deeper meaning in our daily experiences.
Practical Advice: Because we all need a bit of practical magic to get through the day. From time management tips to self-care rituals, I'll share practical advice to help you navigate the demands of motherhood and life.
Why You Should Stick Around
If you're a busy mama juggling a million things and wondering where the heck your sanity went, you're in the right place.
If you're curious about spirituality but don't know where to start, I've got you covered. If you want to laugh, cry, and find a community that gets it, welcome home.
I'm here to share my story, not because I have all the answers, but because I've been in the trenches, and I've found a way through and out.
I want to help you do the same.
Together, we can navigate this crazy, beautiful journey and find our way to more harmony.
Let's Chat Soon,
Rachael
