Niajae Wallace

Not Following – One of the biggest things Niajae would recommend is really checking in with yourself. What do you want? What are your desires? And hold onto your identity.

Try to quiet the noise. With social media we’re constantly comparing ourselves. We’re constantly looking for someone else to answer your own questions. 

Niajae started meditating to balance out her life. Before she started doing this she felt like her life was chaotic.

Following – Niajae relates back to when she decided to sell her brick and mortar business. She wasn’t able to do all of the things she truly desired with this business so she followed that intuition to sell it.

Your Proudest Moment in Partnership

During the time when Niajae was selling her business, there was a moment nearing the end where she started to cry.

When You “Tripped Up” in a Partnership

Antonia & Greg have been together for 40 years, so in that time they’ve had many trip ups in their partnership. One of those more difficult moments came when their kids were teenagers. When you’re together you have so many partnerships. One of those major partnerships is how to parent together.

Your Proudest Moment in Partnership

One of their proudest moments came with their daughter. You know your kids pretty well but not everything. This was a time of total compassion and their daughter in a time of finding herself. 

Near the end of high school she went to them and expressed that she thought she was gay. They told her that they had an idea that it may have been the case. Their daughter jokingly said “why didn’t you tell me?”.

Anna Kowalska

Not Following – On a second date with a gentleman, Anna’s “Yes” showed up as a very strong NO. Instead of following this guidance she made every excuse to justify the relationship with this person and completely ignored the NO she felt in her body.

The relationship went on for a year and it spun her into a direction that was very self-sabotaging. Eventually he broke up with her in a very unpleasant way.

Not following her “Yes” cost her a year of her life, an unpleasant break up and not taking a different path that was more of a “Yes” for her.

Following – A couple of years ago Anna got very strong guidance to move to Colorado. At the time she lived in New York and had only been to Colorado a couple of times, but this guidance was undeniable.

Within six weeks she resolved her live in New York, packed her clothes and her dog in her car and moved to Colorado to an apartment she rented site unseen to start a new life.

Not once has she questioned her decision to follow her “Yes.”

Anna Kowalska is an Artist and Scientific Hand Analyst.

She has transformed her life to create freedom for what she truly desires and works with her clients to help them do the same.

Anna uses Scientific Hand Analysis to identify an individual’s Soul Agreement/Purpose and unique and personal road map to living it. She creates individual and group experiences that combine intuition, creative expression and powerful guidance to facilitate creative and spiritual opening. She is the Creator of the “Dance & Paint”, “Heal Your Heart” and “Free Your Wings” experiences.

How did you get started doing this work?

Five years ago Anna was looking for an expression of her and her work in the world that would fully satisfy her. Something that she would never doubt again, because at the time she was doubting everything.

What she learned from the scientific hand analysis she received has set her free to follow her purpose without doubting it.

Scientific Hand Analysis vs. Palm Reading

Scientific Hand Analysis shows you how your brain is wired. The lines in your hands are correlated to the neural pathways in your brain.

Go here to watch the reading:

What does your Heart Line show you?

The Heart Line reflects how you express love and how you receive love. Plus any heart lessons you are experiencing.

My dominant hand reflects how I am in the outer world and my other hand reflects how I am in my inner world and my inner circle or closest loved ones.

The main lines that are in your hand are:

Heart line – how you express and how you love.

Head line – your style of thinking and how you process information.

Life line – your energy level. Your lifestyle.

Fate line – your career path and follow through.

Also your fingerprints indicate your purpose, your lesson and your life school. This is your North Star in your life.

Emilia Nagy

Not Following – It isn’t the big things that Emilia has had hard times following, but rather the small things in her daily life. In the moment it doesn’t always have the biggest impact, but overtime it really does.

Some of those “micro yeses” are taking a walk when her body is telling her to or going outside and being in the sun. She often says “no” when she really should be saying “yes”.

Following – There was a time when Emilia signed up to host an exchange student. They ended up receiving a request from a girl who lived in Italy. There was a lot going on at the time when they received this request. Her initial thought was that she wasn’t good enough to host this beautiful girl and her family.

In her heart she wanted to say “yes” but she had all these things going on. Find out what happened next by listening to the interview.

Michelle Marchant Johnson

Not Following – Michelle had been through a painful ending to an off and on relationship she had had for 10 years.

She met a “bad boy” at a party and wanted to numb the pain she was in from the breakup, so even though she knew getting involved with this guy was not a good idea, she did it.

Ultimately, she had to get over the original painful breakup with the “bad boy” break up added on top of it.

These things happen because we are operating from the 3 F’s – fear, fantasy or falsehood.

Following – Michelle was not happy with her corporate job but they were giving her raise and increasing her benefits and she had another option that didn’t pay as much and would be less stressful.

Then she listened to her Yes and chose the path of peace. And it absolutely ended up being the right decision for her at that time.

Guiding Principle, Quote or Mantra

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” - Rumi

When You Tripped Up

When Michelle became a first-time bride at 43 she realized both she and her husband had been living very individual lives for a long time. 

Her trip up was when she let her expectations go unspoken and then got upset at him because he did not pick up on what her expectations were and address them.

“I created my own personal drama.”

What she learned is that her husband is actually very willing to help her in almost every case if she expresses her wants or needs to him in a way that he can respond.

(These are some great stories I am sure you will relate to no matter if you are a man or a woman.)

The “DUH” moment that changed your partnerships forever

Michelle had a “DUH” moment one Christmas day when she went out to shovel snow from the driveway because her husband had not done it yet, even though he said he would.

Her ah-ha was that it is not only what she does in her partnership, but also the intention behind it. And considering how that intention might come across to her partner.

She learned that it is very important be honest with herself about her intentions and to communicate them to her partner.

Proudest moment in partnership

Michelle was diagnosed with Breast Cancer 4 years ago. And she felt like she was loosing all of her femininity.

While she was always a very strong and independent woman, she was in a place where she needed support.

She learned how to be in touch with her needs and desires and how to express and ask for what she wanted in a more powerful way. 

Being receptive to this support allowed her develop and deepen friendships like never before.

Payoff of Partnership -

Michelle knew she wanted to start her coaching business and when she got up the courage to tell her husband that she wanted to leave her corporate job he surprised her.

Her husband not only was supportive, but he actually became her most ardent supporter, fan and even a partner.

She wouldn’t have had the courage to make the leap from corporate America without her partnership with her husband.
