On this episode of Grit and Grace, Tahverlee is joined by Kelly Dawn. Kelly is a Spiritual Entrepreneur who began practicing witchcraft in her early teens. After putting her craft aside for years, she has now returned to her true calling. Today, Kelly is an intuitive coach for driven, ambitious witches and spiritual CEOs.
Tahverlee calls Kelly a “Spiritual Disruptor.” Kelly pushes the edges of not caring about what anyone else says or practices; that is the true heart of sovereignty. In the beginning, Kelly was afraid of being judged by others for her beliefs. But one day, she felt strongly called to open up and truly own her power. Kelly thought, "screw it if I can't be myself in my own business, what the hell am I doing?"
To start owning your own truth, Kelly suggests thinking about the conversations you have when you are not online; when you are just talking to friends over coffee. Who are you then, and how can you bring more of that into your online life and business? Kelly's spiritual path has led her down many roads over the years but her studies have always brought her back to the one truth she was persistently called to; witchcraft.
So, what does a day in the life of a witchcraft-practicing entrepreneur look like? It starts with journaling, where Kelly writes out her big picture vision. Then she heads outside to walk the dog and be in nature. After that, Kelly meditates and connects with the main spirits she works with. She uses automatic writing to clear her mind and focus on the message her spirit is sending. Sometimes she throws in a bit of spellwork, tarot, and oracle readings to give herself some guidance and direction.
Recently, Kelly has begun doing a lot of demon work. She views demons as ancient gods and goddesses, different energies that feel very old. After working with demons for a while, Kelly got the call to connect with Lucifer. Her first reaction was fear, but then she decided to open herself up and connect. To Kelly, Lucifer is an adversarial spirit but not necessarily a fallen angel. He is on the side of humanity as opposed to a deity that wants to do us harm. Kelly views Lucifer as an overwhelming but very loving and protective presence in her life.
Kelly coaches and supports entrepreneurs at all different stages of their business. She pushes them to overcome their fears and fully express themselves in their business. Kelly says, "the more you that you are, the more you will connect with your people." We are conditioned to go through life doing the things we are told will make us successful, but Kelly teaches her clients to tap into what they truly desire. In doing this, you will own your true power.
