| 244. It’s Time To Let Money Love You – FARAH ORTHS | 24 Jul 2025 | 01:31:21 | |
Does money love you? Or are you still trying to prove you’re worthy of its presence? In this deep, heart-opening episode, I sit down with spiritual guide and money healing coach Farah Orths, author of “Money Loves Me: A Spiritual Guide to Manifesting Abundance”. Farah’s story is nothing short of miraculous — she went from “money hates me” to becoming a channel for divine love and financial flow. This isn’t just a conversation about money. It’s about healing the inner shame, grief, and conditioning that blocks us from receiving life fully — and recognizing that money is simply one expression of that life. Whether you’re struggling with scarcity, redefining your relationship with wealth, or just curious about how cacao, dance, and heartbreak fit into the abundance equation… this one is for you. Inside this episode: • The exact moment Farah dropped the story that “money hates me” • Why grief is a sacred, and often missing, part of abundance • What happened when I attended one of Farah’s money ceremonies • Farah’s struggle with Pure-O OCD and how it shaped her spiritual path • The “field of the heart” and why it’s the true portal to manifestation • How your birth story could be shaping your ability to receive • My personal reflections on creating WANA HEY and how it’s helping me come into more relational energy with money • What it means to become a trustworthy vessel for money to flow • Healing your lineage through movement, embodiment, and divine reparenting • Key practices and insights from Money Loves Me that cracked me open Insights: 🌀 “When you don’t fully trust money, it doesn’t fully trust you.” – Ksenia 🌀 “Receiving money is an outcome of receiving life.” – Farah Orths 🌀 “We’ve forgotten the innate sorcerer within us — the creatrix, the creator, the original architect of our lives. For so long, we’ve been taught that creation happens in the mind: through thoughts, visualizations, strategies. Even in spiritual spaces, the heart was often left out of the equation. But true creation doesn’t begin in the mind. It begins in the heart. When we return to the field of the heart, we remember who we really are — and from that place, the miracles come.” – Farah Orths Resources: ✨ “Money Loves Me: A Spiritual Guide to Manifesting Abundance” by Farah Orths 🌹 WANA HEY Ceremonial Cacao @wanaheyrising Connect with Ksenia: Substack: @goodgirlprophet Instagram @ksenia.avdulove YouTube @ksenia.avdulove TikTok @ksenia.avdulove Subscribe, rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts Follow the podcast on Spotify Connect with Farah Orths: | |||
| 243. I Started a Substack. Here's Why It Will Change My Life | 11 Jul 2025 | 00:19:29 | |
In this solo episode, I share the heart behind launching my Substack, Good Girl Prophet. It’s a reclamation of voice, trust, and creative sovereignty after two decades of online sharing across blogs, brands, and social media. I speak honestly about what led me here: from chasing the algorithm to listening deeply, from creating to be liked to creating from truth. This episode is about choosing resonance over performance, depth over dopamine, and remembering that you are the main dish… not just a bite-sized piece of content. Whether you’re plotting a creative escape, ditching the algorithm hamster wheel, or just tired of shrink-wrapping your soul for social media, this one’s for you. Inside this episode:

| 242. Dress Like a Prayer, Create Like a Spell: A Wild Feminine Awakening in Peru | 11 Apr 2025 | 00:28:13 | |
In this solo episode (the first one under the new podcast name!), I share the behind-the-scenes story of my pilgrimage to Peru—a journey that unraveled grief, creative blocks, divine timing, and an unexpected airport ceremony. What unfolded in the sacred Andes wasn’t just a travel experience—it was a full-body remembrance of what it means to co-create with the Wild Feminine, or my inner Goddess. This is a story of listening, following the spark, choosing magic over logic, and letting the wild feminine lead. It’s about cacao and license plates, airport meltdowns and mystical signs in the dirt. And most of all, it’s an invitation to remember: you are the magic. Inside This Episode: • Why “when a woman stops creating, men pick up weapons” is more than a metaphor • The power of saying yes before you feel ready • The moment a sip of cacao from Peru changed the trajectory of my life • A real-time initiation into trusting divine timing (and missing a flight) • The creative downloads I received in an underground meditation • Why your nervous system is the real portal to miracles • The aliveness in beauty, adornment, and letting yourself be seen • A call to honor your downloads and create without permission • How the Earth herself is guiding the branding of the product I’ve been developing Quotes: 🌀 “When a woman stops creating, men pick up weapons. The only way to restore balance is to create.” 🌀 “It didn’t come from outside of me. It was already in me. The remembering was in my bones.” 🌀 “Your car is your altar on wheels. Let it delight you.” 🌀 “Stop trying to be loved by the divine while ignoring the downloads that are asking to be born through you.” 🌀 “You are not meant to wait until it’s profitable to be worthy. YOU are the magic.” My invitations for you: What’s one small, illogical thing that delights you? Let it lead you. What’s one thing you can do to soothe your nervous system today? Let that be your temple. Video Version of this episode: Mentioned:

| Welcome to Weaving Your Reality with Ksenia | Podcast Name Shift | 11 Apr 2025 | 00:05:01 | |
Welcome to the newly named Weaving Your Reality with Ksenia. This podcast is evolving — just like I am, just like you are.
The name has shifted ever so slightly, but the frequency has deepened. This space is now more clearly what it was always becoming: A portal for visionary humans ready to reclaim their creative power, speak their raw truth, and build both inner worlds and outer empires rooted in resonance, integrity, and infinite possibility. We talk about business here — but not the kind built on burnout or boxes. We talk about creativity, visibility, and digital presence — not as strategies to squeeze into, but as sacred technologies for frequency, storytelling, and energetic leadership. This is not just a podcast. It’s an invocation. A whispered reminder that you are the creator — and everything you build from your center carries the codes of who you really are. So let this be an invitation to weave boldly. To create not from pressure, but from presence. Not from performance, but from truth. To design your life, your brand, and your online expression as a sacred offering. May the frequencies you tap into here remind you of your inner technology. May you be moved into aliveness, joy of creation and playfulness. May miracles unfold as a natural side effect of being fully alive. Thank you for being here. Thank you for weaving your reality.

| 241. You Can Talk About It, Or You Can Be It: (Re)Learning To Trust Myself In Life And On Social Media | 10 Jan 2025 | 00:20:03 | |
In this solo update, I expose my own self-judgements around how I show up on social media and the attachment to creating something “successful”. Together, we flip these illusions upside down and go straight where these fears are actually inviting us – intimacy with the Divine and with life itself. I also share:

| 240. I’m Back! A Big Life Update After Having a Baby (Following Guidance One Step at a Time) | 10 Jun 2024 | 01:07:43 | |
It’s been almost a year since I’ve released an episode and since then we’ve moved across the country, bought and renovated a house (well, it’s still in progress!), birthed a baby, and welcomed another furry member to our family. I also released my first spoken word song. I’ve been hearing very strong inner guidance whispers to come back to the podcast. On the earthly plane, I’ve also experienced incredible synchronistic meetings and conversations that have pointed to the same thing… “get back to the mic!” I share some of these stories in this episode. So I’m following the guidance. In this comeback episode, let’s catch up on life: I share the most memorable bits of my journey from last summer (when we drove across the country to move to the West Coast) to now, as I’m feeling a completion of my postpartum stage and feeling a new way of being, loving and expressing emerging within the expanded constellation of our family. I share about:

| 239. I’m 24 Weeks Pregnant! Lessons from My Pregnancy Journey, Part 1 | 14 Jul 2023 | 00:53:46 | |
In this episode, I share one of the most expansive journeys I’ve ever been on: my path to being 24 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby boy. After multiple pregnancy losses (trigger warning: I speak about pregnancy loss in this episode), there have been so many non-obvious, non-linear initiations and activations that have moved through me to prepare me for this moment. In this solo episode, I share some of them. I have a feeling this will be part one of a series! We cover:

| 238. Trusting Your Creative Process, Being Available For Spirit While Staying Grounded In Your Body, Quantum Leaping Through Journaling – KARINA IVANOVA | 27 Jun 2023 | 01:46:20 | |
Four years ago musician, writer and podcaster Karina Ivanova was listening to one of my podcast episodes, and planted a seed that she’d like to be a guest one day. But then she heard an inner voice ask: “What would you be excited to tell Ksenia about?” That’s when she realized that the creations she’s meant to share with me (and with you) haven’t come through yet. So Karina got busy bringing her creative visions to reality, from a music album, to a poetry book, a podcast and a journaling movement in her home country of Kazakhstan. All while exploring her own spiritual journey through the Akashic Records and other modalities. Today, she shares it all with us, and I couldn’t be more excited about this coming full circle! We discuss:

It’s a collection of 110 poems-reflections on my spiritual journey activated after a series of events such as residency at the Watermill Center, opening my Akashic Records for the first time and ending my 8.5 year long relationship. I’m interested all things arts and spirituality, conscious living, writing, soulful entrepreneurship and relationships.

| 237. Honoring The Sacred Creative Pause, Podcast As A Ceremony, Magical Experiences During Recent Travels, Choosing Creation, and Lemurian Crystals | 11 Jun 2023 | 00:32:43 | |
In this solo update I’m sharing the WHY behind the longest break from podcasting I’ve ever taken, some of the creations that I’m currently bringing into the world, and why allowing the space for Source to move through is an invitation for miracles. Here are some of the things I share: - Our experience at the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show (and an invitation for you if you’re called to Lemurian Crystals) - How I plan travel experiences to leave space for Source to guide me - I’m pregnant! How I’m approaching this pregnancy differently than the previous times - Fulfilling Eric’s childhood dream of going to the NBA finals - Releasing industry standards and expectations, and approaching every podcast episode as a sacred ceremony Episode sponsor: Laird Superfood: Use my special link to save 15% at Laird Superfood at checkout.

| 235. 5-Step Intuitive Social Media Process for Artists, Creators, Healers, Coaches and Entrepreneurs | 16 Feb 2023 | 00:22:16 | |
If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed or just unclear about how to show up on social media – and wondering if you should show up at all – this one’s for you. In this episode, I will share a 5-step intuitive social media process that is inspired by some of the downloads that have been coming through during my one-on-one energy/social media strategy work with incredible entrepreneurs, artists and healers (shoutout to all the incredible souls that say yes to this courageous, vulnerable work.) I guess you could say what I do is “shamanic” social media. In essence, I connect the different realms and hold the mirror of possibility for the client’s highest self-expression in this world, using the lens of social media. I continue to be blown away by what comes through in these sessions – it’s way beyond me or anything my brain could have come up with. I don’t get a chance to work with everyone in an intimate one-on-one way, but I feel that this work is incredibly important, especially at this time. That’s why I’m so excited to share this process and this guidance with you here on the podcast!

| 234. Ancestral Healing, Living In Your Truth, and Remembering That We Are Already Free – NATHAN MAINGARD | 25 Jan 2023 | 01:43:20 | |
I really enjoyed this conversation with Nathan Maingard – podcast host, transformational guide and wordsmith. This is the first interview under the updated podcast cover art, and that’s intentional: the depths to which we journey in this episode takes the sacred space that is this podcast to a new level! We discuss:
About Nathan Maingard: Born at home to a writer and a craftsman in a tiny cottage on the tip of Africa, Nathan Maingard was raised barefoot and naked. As a highly sensitive person formed by the sounds of wild ocean and musical poets, he was nearly crushed by the limiting boxes society pushed him into. Through his inner healing journey of finding his 'enoughness', he has grown into an empowering wordsmith, healing facilitator, and transformational guide. His gift is to support down-to-earth seekers and free people as they feel, heal, and grow. Related episodes:

| 222. Embodying Main Character Energy (Dropping The “Nice Person” Role) | 14 Oct 2022 | 00:08:29 | |
Are you worshiping the cult of “being a nice person?” Did wanting to be liked and approved sneak up to the top of your subconscious hierarchy of values? You’re here because niceness has likely hijacked how you express yourself in the world, putting a ceiling and a floor on how freely you share the TRUTH of who you are. The truth that is the swirling life force in the field beyond logic, spreadsheets, content plans and business projections. The kind of truth that wants to pour divine frequencies through you with no self-censorship. Even if it pisses some people off. Especially if it does. If you’re ready to let go of wiring that no longer serves you and hire a quantum electrician within to choose a new set of beliefs that make you SOAR, you are in the right place. In this solo episode, I invite you to step into the main character energy that you were born to play in your life.

| 221. It’s Time To Take The Leap (You Know Who You Are) | 07 Oct 2022 | 00:12:51 | |
In this transmission, I’m sharing the invitation to release expired parts of your identity, and how this energy has been showing up in my life and business decisions. Revisiting my ego-attachments to a brand I’d created that was once successful, I’m present to the fearful holding onto the idea that I might never create something as great again. Time to burn that sh*t in a sacred fire! That’s how we make space for the new. For being pure vessels for Love that wants to pour in us and through us. That’s how Source guides us to the most extraordinary, beautiful, abundant paths of creation and expression. I trust and choose to leap into the void, the in-between identities. Are you with me?

| 213. Introducing WEB8: New Podcast Name, New Era | 01 Aug 2022 | 00:13:25 | |
I’m so excited to introduce you to WEB8. It’s a whole new world for the sacred space that is the world of this podcast. The podcast has held me (and many listeners) through many metamorphosis and life shifts in the past 4 years. It’s a creation that is at the center of everything I do. In this episode, I share my journey and the creative process behind receiving and implementing the vision for WEB8. Listening to the whisper to create this podcast in 2018 (even though my brain was afraid it was too late to start one), has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made – for my soul, for my creativity, and for my business. The connections that have come to be as a result of the podcast’s existence have transformed my life. The conversations on their own are an anchor of growth in my life, and that would have been enough. But then there are all the ways it’s impacting listeners. The messages and reviews I get about how we’re walking our lives together, and how the podcast brings you right back into heart and truth, moves me deeply. I’m so grateful that this is what I get to do in my life.
The new name, new cover art and a massively expanded energetic container are my way to thank, honor and celebrate the podcast. There is so much beauty that is blossoming and rippling around the globe in every moment as a result of people tuning into the podcast, and receiving the codes behind the words.
Everything is the same, yet entirely different.
Why WEB8? It came in as a powerful download. I have yet to discover more dimensions of its meaning, but this is what’s been given to me so far.
“Web” playfully references the infinite web of life. It’s a reminder that you are the creator of your experience that came here on Earth to express your medicine. At the same time “web” is the Internet, the largest web humans have ever woven, and a powerful tool for connection and meaning – if you choose to view and use it as such. In a world where technology and the internet are largely viewed as a masculine concept, there’s a feminine, warm, inviting consciousness that wants to come through.
“8” references eternal life and eternal iteration of YOU in the world. Following what excites you, following your aliveness, and trusting change. One loop of the infinity symbol representing the inner technology of soul knowing, the other one representing the outer technology that is the internet.
WEB8 holds conversations that weave inner and outer technology as a vehicle for your soul’s expression in the world. The topics are very much in alignment with how we started: entrepreneurship, creativity and ritual in the digital age.
Welcome to the space where you weave a new world of soul led self expression, in a world of infinite possibility. You are the creator of your own reality, expressing soul through your humanity. One not larger or more important than the other, but each one being an essential piece of the puzzle. The codes shared in this space are meant to catalyze presence and remembering in you – the listener, the guests, and myself.
May the frequencies you tap into on this podcast bring you into a state of peace, into a sense of truth, joy, playfulness and inner knowing.
You’re in the right place, at the right time, in the right body, here to lead the way.
This is WEB8, I am your host Ksenia, and this is the new era for this podcast.
Thank you for doing this life thing alongside me. Big things are unfolding and I’m so excited to you’re here with me. | |||

I am working on something a big and exciting podcast update, and can't wait to share it with you soon! In the meantime, I am sharing one of the most powerful episodes I recorded in 2021, inviting you on a journey into your soul essence. The question is not how to get millions of podcast streams and make YouTube videos that hundreds of thousands of views, but … what did my soul come here to learn? People who are embodying their soul’s calling have a certain frequency they carry. It’s never too late to ask that question and discover what lies beneath desires, anxiety and addiction. The only sustainable way to show up on social media is to Share because you genuinely want to share, not just to build a brand. There’s no formula for the perfect social media presence, brand or business, only moment by moment tuning into what’s meant to come through you. | |||

| 205. Let’s Talk About Money: My Journey To Wealth | 27 May 2022 | 01:03:21 | |
Building wealth is an intentional practice that requires envisioning your future life. That’s something I recently learned from a Factora Wealth Circle, an experience that totally transformed my relationship with money. In this episode I will share with you my money journey, my relationship with wealth, and a recent series of breakthroughs in the area of money management and investing. The transformation has been both energetic and very practical. It's the financial education I never got and have been craving. The level of clarity and ACTION I now have in the area of finances is incredibly empowering as I build my business, buy and sell real estate, and plan for the future. From my experience, having transparent conversations about money is one of the most powerful things we can do so that we can get the topic of money out of the way and focus on the unmeasurable things we care about behind the desire for money: connection, joy, service, and beauty. If you're curious about the Factora Wealth Circle – I went through the experience in Winter/Spring 2022 and couldn't recommend it enough, but only if you're down to show up, do homework, and have (sometimes uncomfortable and confronting) conversations about money beliefs and goals in your life. You can apply for a future Wealth Circle here. If you decide to join, use code KSENIA400 for $400 off your registration (I'm a proud affiliate!)
