Hello First name / friend,
 
If you want to Do Something Big -
 
write a book / build a business / create a podcast / found a nonprofit
 
there is a pre-requisite.
 
First and foremost, you need to cultivate Main Character Energy.

You need to be willing to be - as memoirist and poet Dine Watson said in this week's Mind Witchery interview - the star of your own story.
 
Here are vital three ingredients of Main Character Energy:
 
Self-Centering. We self-center by caring generously for our bodies, minds, hearts, and souls. We self-center by aligning with our values, honoring our desires, and integrating our intuition. We self-center by reclaiming our time, boosting our energy, and doing what we please.
 
We reject the idea that someone who centers herself is greedy or narcissistic. We live into the premise that we can only give generously from overflow, and that we can only truly lead from a place of integrity.
 
Receiving. We stop being lone wolves and become pack leaders. We allow people to help us. We evolve our lifestyles to suit us better, and invest in the support we need.
 
We refuse the dominating culture's expectation that we self-sacrifice and over-give. We stop treating ourselves like machines. We work through the discomfort of needing more than we want to need.
 
Shining Like the Stars We Are. We lead by example. We show our brilliance, our quirkiness, our dreams, our fire. We cultivate love for all our parts - even and especially our contradictions and imperfections  - and we glitter like jewels as a result.
 
We opt out of the tendency to hold back in supporting roles and instead step into the spotlight. We decline the cultural imperative to please and appease, with our words, our positions, our appearances. We experiment with self-expression, and we courageously show how we grow.

If you feel like there's more for you here in this life, you are right.
 
And I know from so much experience, personal and professional, that the journey to claiming more begins with you starring in your own story.
 
The great news is that you can cast yourself.
 
love,
Natalie

I am so fired up about this Main Character Energy business that I've whipped up a group coaching program around it!

Self-Centering, Receiving, and Shining require so much courage, and that's so much easier to conjure in countercultural community.
 
That's what we'll do in Main Character Magic, which includes:
  • Weekly group coaching (most Fridays at 1p ET)
  • Time Witchery (my best-life-conjuring anti-planner)
  • Tricks and Treats 👻
If you're ready for a starring role in 2024, I hope you will join!
 
MCM is an experiment that I'm trying out this November/December. So if you're interested, come & get it while the getting's good. It's $333/month - yes, really - and we start this Friday, Nov 3.
 
No sales page to visit, m'dear. Reply to this email with your questions or your HELL YES, and we'll get you what you need.

Ms. Dine Watson is a force of nature, and quite literally shifts into Main Character Energy in her award-winning memoir, Transplant
 
Dine joins me this week on Mind Witchery to talk about how she conjured the courage to tell her story.
