Hi everyone,

Below is a message from MAQA about following your Soul’s Divine path.  The truth is I spent many years in resistance to following my Soul’s Divine path. Honestly, those were some very challenging and painful years.  Nonetheless, there are periods when I can still become resistant to where my Soul is trying (desperately at times) to lead me. Resistance to "whatever is" merely becomes the best choice I can muster in that moment! It’s all part of the human experience… It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to! Totally just dated myself right there! LOL.  Thank you God/Goddess, I spend much, much more of my time in alignment with my Soul than ever before.  Some days, I feel so in harmony, it’s like I couldn’t make a mistake if I tried!
​
​Do you feel like you are spending too much of your time out of alignment? Are you finding yourself quickly running through a gamut of so called “negative emotions” in short amounts of time that leave you feeling low levels of anxiety, apathy and/or mal-content that can stay around for way too long?  Because I teach what I most need to learn, over the past 15 years, I have developed an amazing set of tools you too can utilize to create an aligned and inspired life.  These tools will help you dramatically shift the ratio of time you spend in the flow of alignment vs. well, you know, boo-hoo’ing at your party!  Maqa says they are both honored… I just say one feels a whole lot better than the other!  
 
One of the most amazing and spectacular ways you can gain these tools is to come attend our FABULOUS Sacred Relationship Retreat on April 24-28, 2018 amongst the sacred Red Rocks of  Sedona, Arizona!  Come join the fun and change your life… It doesn’t get much better than this!  You have 4 days left to take advantage of the early bird special price!  If your Soul is calling you to this retreat, reach out and let me know! I would love to explore how you too could benefit!  It’s an amazing experience that will, without a doubt, help you learn how to communicate with your own Soul! The last group left planning their next retreat!  Soul Family members were reunited!  Check it out…  There’s more info below or click here!
 
If you would like to explore alternate ways you can follow your Soul’s Divine path… Reach out! I would love to hear from you!  You can visit my personal website by clicking here!
 
Until then…
 
Much love and light,
Tina

Good day everyone,
 
I hope this message finds you all following your Soul’s Divine path in order to discover your heart’s greatest desires!  Many years ago, Tina was in a coffee shop and a young man walked in with a tee shirt that said “Too much Soul to control.” She laughed and I asked her what she thought about the statement.  She said, MAQA, that’s exactly how I feel sometimes! I told her two things. First, whoever wrote it was certainly inspired! Then, I asked her to please stop trying!
 
The truth is, you all have too much Soul to control and you would feel so much lighter if you merely stopped trying. Allow your Soul the room to move you towards your purpose; your destiny. Your Soul knows exactly where it is headed and you are completely guided along the many exciting paths in order to evolve safely, happily and in perfect time.  When you try to “control your Soul” the journey begins to feel wrong, frightening, confusing and it’s never happening slow enough or fast enough. By attempting to control it, you close yourselves off to so many possibilities designed to surprise and delight you along the way! When you are in the space of “controlling things” you have allowed your Ego to take the wheel and you’ve, essentially, abandoned your own heart. Once in the driver’s seat, the Ego will begin tossing obstacles (old sub-conscious beliefs, thoughts, patterns; actions that no longer serve you) onto your path. I assure you, although these obstacles will delay and frustrate you, they are never insurmountable. You will always be brought back around to the path of your Soul and given the opportunity to exercise your power to make a different choice. However, these obstacles will put you in the position of taking the long road home, making your journey more challenging and, many times, less enjoyable. We honor your ability to choose… We hope you will honor it as well by using it wisely. It is important to understand, although your Soul’s plan is one in motion - shifting through the duration of your evolution, your Soul will not really be denied its journey. This life is but a blip on the radar of your Soul… The choice to follow the path in this life or the next (or the next, for that matter) is clearly yours. But, for all intents and purposes, it will more than likely, eventually be followed. There are parts of your journey that are considered destined. For instance, the majority of you reading this message are destined to awaken to who you are, in some capacity, and develop this relationship. Many of you are here to be healers. There is not one road leading to either of these limited yet limitless examples of destiny. However, once your Soul begins knocking on doors of destiny, your resistance to answering will feel futile! What you resist persists.
 
Isn’t it interesting how differently each person reacts to the word destiny? Some get very excited because you have believed there is one particular thing you must do that has somehow eluded you. This belief, many times, brings with it the feeling as though you must now go out and hunt it down! Let me first say, if your Soul planned something specific, you will not have to hunt it down as it will certainly find you, in divine timing. And, if it is truly destined, it will keep returning. Others, hearing the word destiny, believe this is something that is somehow forced upon you by Spirit as if you have no choice in the matter. This is just not so as YOU planned your destiny. This is not something thrust upon you like a burdened “lot in life.”  Trust in your own plan… It is not random. Make the free-will choice to allow Spirit to guide your steps.
 
We would like to suggest that you entrust yourselves to the greater will of your Divine Self.  In order to entrust, it is important to develop a relationship with this part of your Self.  We hear from many of you who say “Sometimes this is easier than others. I know they are there but I don’t always remember to reach out or to ask for help when I need it. I don’t know how. This takes time, effort and patience. I get frustrated.”  We say… Yes, this is accurate!  Like all of your significant relationships, the one with your Self takes all of these things as it too must be  cultivated. And, as it is true for your human relationships, there is also great benefit  and reward from falling in love and partnering with your own Divinity! 
 
Your Soul and High Self already know all there is to know about you… Including those things you work so hard to hide from yourself and others. The view from your Soul’s perspective is very different, indeed. This part of You sees the forest and the trees; it has the knowledge of every lifetime (past, present and future) as this part of You is, most simply, timeless. It is not separate and does not wish to control you. In truth, it is here to love you unconditionally while assisting in the co-creation of your own intentions and desire to evolve… As a human-being and as a Soul.  This part of You knows all of Your truths as well as your Ego’s perceptions. The whole being is honored within the journey. Your comfort level and sense of joy is in the blending of the co-created relationship between you and Spirit. From your relationship with Spirit, you will always receive unconditional love and acceptance, compassion and encouragement. As you develop this relationship, you will come to learn what it feels like to KNOW… You are never alone!  Your relationship with your Self is the most significant relationship you will ever experience. You are perfectly poised to discover this magnificent partnership for yourself. Achieving it is your Divine birthright. As you develop this relationship, your relationships with others will naturally become richer as they are truly mirrors of the relationship you have with your Self.
 
This is the force that breathes you. Trust your connection to your divinity… Spirit is not something outside of you, it is WHO YOU ARE!  Each Soul has its own unique rhythm and path. Tuning into your Soul’s rhythm will help you flow through the shifts in your life experience vs. struggling with the illusion that you are actually in control. You will never be able to control your Soul or your external conditions, only your reaction to them.  However, when you meld your mind’s power to choose with your Soul force, you become free from the desire to control anything. This is where the gold resides. If you allow it to be so, the experience can be a divine unfolding of the evolution of your immortal Soul.    
 
This is a challenging time for so many. It seems that everyone is feeling the push to do something (even if it is isolating) as this moment feels so very tentative and uncertain. We understand your perception. For many of you, life is changing in some very significant ways and we hope you will decide to take the ride of your heart and Soul. Please trust, so much you cannot see is happening behind the scenes. We are always working for your greatest good!
 
Tune into and partner with your Inner being… I promise it will be the most significant and rewarding relationship you will ever experience.  We, your Spiritual Support Team, are always available and working on behalf of your greater good and that of all concerned!  We stand in full support of your desire to take the ride of your life… The journey home to your Self.  You are so dearly loved and you are never alone.
 
Giving love from the heart,
MAQA
​

Good day everyone,
 
I trust this message finds you all moving forward on your journeys.  It is an extremely powerful time which, in the months ahead, has the potential to propel you forward into an extraordinary life… If you so allow.   

You each have the free will to decide the direction you move toward and your experience moving through it.  I would like to quickly remind everyone how you have chosen; wisely I might add, to co-create the extraordinary experiences of your own Soul’s awakening and evolution.  This is very exciting, indeed!  In order to accomplish this in a way which is beneficial, you must follow your heart.  Hint… The path of your heart is rarely the ordinary or familiar path.  Choosing the path of the same ol’, same ol’ will only bring you, well, more of the same ol’. There is no judgment… It is merely important for you to understand, regardless of the path you choose, they are both an invitation to awaken and evolve.  One conclusion you are most certainly familiar with… You’ve been down that road before.  What you usually awaken to is the knowing that this road doesn’t fulfill the beckoning from your heart to evolve. We would, instead, recommend you choose the path that is aligned with all you have asked for. I promise you, we are listening. It is true, this path most certainly feels unfamiliar and less comfortable but it holds the promise of not only your greatest intentions but also a high vibration; loving evolution. We encourage you to choose this path again and again. We hear so many of you say during times of decision… I’m going to make a right.  Spirit says No, no… Please go left. You say, No… Right feels right.  We say No… Right feels familiar and there is an enormous difference.  Go left… All you’ve intended is left. Know and feel that the road less traveled will lead you to the extraordinary life that you desire! It is true… And will be your truth if you choose it. I promise each of you, it will not be as scary as it seems and you are much more ready to arrive, in all your grandeur, than your Ego would have you believe.  With your Spiritual Support Team on the ever-ready… All things are not only possible but highly probable.
 
Why do you think you would continue to go down the same ol’ roads? They’re comfortable? Perhaps, this is true… Right up until the point where you begin to feel the old familiar trappings of the box that keeps you comfortable in your uncomfortable-ness and stuck within your current and past paradigms.  This, my beautiful and brave Soul friends in-service, is one of the slickest forms of self-sabotage. Self sabotage is any action taken in direct opposition to your intentions. Your intentions pave the way for your reality to follow. The reality that actually follows is based upon the attention you place on or actions you take towards those intentions. If you wish to manifest what you intend, your thoughts, feelings, beliefs and actions must be in alignment with your highest-good intentions.  We hear so many of you… You are incredibly frustrated by the fact you are not where YOU just KNOW you could be. You each know and feel it inside when you are not living the life you intended.  And we tell you… You are right where you need to be and this is truth. It is also truth, however, you may not be as far down the actual reality track as you could be… Go left.
 
Some tend to use scapegoating, suggesting someone else is the reason they feel stuck (partner, boss, co-worker, sibling, parent or friend). Others look to their circumstances (regrets, loss, jobs and unhappy relationships) as the cause. However, the cause is much more likely to be good ol’ self-sabotage.
 
There are numerous ways you self-sabotage.  To name a few, procrastination, self medicating (drugs, food, alcohol), data driven distractions (cell phone, social media, TV and Netflix), incessant worry and negative thinking, resistance and control, not recognizing you worth, handing over your power, stuffing down your emotions, isolation, rushing into relationships, lack of self-care, perfectionist ideals or behaviors, criticizing yourself and others, viewing your mistakes as failures, believing change is too hard, convincing yourself you don’t want what you want and last but, certainly not least, rationalizing why you continue to make the same choices you’ve always made and somehow expect a different result.
 
It will help to ask yourself what you are getting from this self-destructive behavior.  Some possibilities might include:

• Safety: Self-sabotage keeps you safe (read: stuck) and gives you the excuse not to live the life you desire.
• Control: Your Ego will try to control the changes taking place as a way of making your inner child feel safe. This is, however, not possible as it is your responsibility to make him/her feel safe.
• Imposter syndrome: The worry that you will be called out as a fraud. This is another lie that keeps you stuck. Stand firmly in your power and walk in your own integrity.
• Short term gain: This is that fast feel good behavior that ultimately leads to long term pain (negative consequences).
• Emotional relief: A “fix” to help shift your mood instead of dealing with the underlying cause.
• Rationalizing: Telling yourself “rational lies” about why “familiar feels right.” Don’t buy that lie… It is just protecting you from an ugly truth (read: great big lie) that feels too painful to deal with.

 
No matter what you’re getting from self-sabotage, it would seem that nipping it in the bud would be in your best interest. Gone awry, it can lead you to a life of regrets and unmet desires. It might help you to understand, self-sabotaging behavior is your Ego’s way of trying to protect your inner child from getting hurt. It is triggered by subconscious FEAR and usually launches you into action. This response is helpful when dealing with a fight or flight situation but it is not at all functional, otherwise.  Many of you have adopted the behavior as a response to stress, a way to escape, a reaction to fear of the unknown and/or the potential of emotional hurt or perceived failure. Do not buy into the illusions created by your old limiting beliefs (you’re not good enough, you’re trapped, stuck, not meant to be/do/have… Please fill in your own blank; please don’t buy whatever it is.)
 
I would like to give you some suggestions for healing self-sabotaging behavior:
 

• Reclaim your sense of self-worth: Consciously acknowledge your own worth and value.  Avoid negative self talk and focus on your positive attributes. Stop telling your old stories and put more emphasis on the efforts of your heart vs. your outcomes. Refrain from comparing yourself to others and decide that you are the only one who can define and determine your worth.
• Know that it is better to “fail” than bail: Each time you open yourself up to learning experiences you evolve and grow… Remember, this is why you came here. Be alright with getting it “wrong” as, when you learn, it’s all-right.
• Challenge your mind to think big and bold: When your mind begins to fill in the blanks of your story with what it fears, it will move you towards self-sabotage in order to self-protect. However, your mind is merely a programmable tool. Utilize it to imagine success and instruct it to fill in those blanks with exciting and heart-felt desires aligned with your intentions. You will immediately see an elevation in your vibration and begin to attract in new and exciting possibilities. This will put the majority of your FEARs to rest.
• Practice compassion and kindness: Examine and embrace your fears rather than meeting them with judgment and criticism. Be kind and loving to yourself and others.
• Validate for yourself that although evolution may not always be easy, it does not need to be painful. With Spirit as your partner, you will see it for the magical gift that it is. Re-member with the truth it is the very reason you are here.
• Be your authentic self: Be honest with yourself and love yourself enough to honor who you are. Consciously observe your own behavior. Imagine you are someone else watching your behavior. When it deserves to be called into question, question it.  Give yourself the gift of doing the inner emotional work. FYI, you’re never done doing the emotional work.  It helps peel away all the layers of who you are not, revealing your Soul’s true essence. Well, you will actually be done but you won’t need your vehicle any longer. ;)  At any rate, to turn an Abraham phrase… The better it gets, the better it gets.
• Cultivate your relationship with the Divine: There is no more important relationship than the one you have with your Self on the other side of the veil. Your own guidance will always lead you to where you need to be.

 
Set a genuine intention to welcome new experiences into your life. Do so knowing you are safe and fully supported by Spirit. Follow your intentions with appropriate amounts of attention and trust. Suspend your desire to react negatively to the unknown.  Ask for guidance and trust what you get. Tip: Please do not keep asking Spirit the same questions over and over again… This will only result in you eventually getting the answer your Ego was looking for. It is your responsibility to keep this in check. Remember, Spirit has a birds-eye view. We can see all the roads ahead clearly… Roads you simply cannot see. We honor your desires and intentions; we see which roads hold your highest good. Trust that Spirit knows the most favorable way of getting you there. Your wondrous journey is filled with steps and each one is important to the unfolding of the magnificence that is YOU!  Together, we are more powerful than you ever imagined or dreamed could be possible.  Are you ready to co-create miracles? Leap my friends… Leap! Leap and I promise you, if you don’t fly then a net will most certainly appear. It’s gonna feel so good when you do! It is our greatest joy to watch you soar as our breath is the wind beneath your beautiful wings.
 
Giving love from the heart!

​

​Good day everyone,

I hope this message finds you all in sacred relationship with yourself.  There is almost an epidemic of dysfunctional relationships in your realm because so many of you continuously and unconsciously combat or bounce off the wounds of one another.  It is, of course, perfect for you to be attracting in your partners based on the wounded parts of yourself as you are designed to attract what you most need to heal.  However, in order for you to develop and enjoy healthy relationships, it is important to first make the choice to have conscious ones. It is harmony in relationship we wish for you to seek and, therefore, it is important to first have that harmony within yourself… Your own Divine Family!  By Divine Family, I speak of your Divine Masculine, Divine Feminine and Inner Child. You each, regardless of gender, hold all of these magnificent energies and all should be engaged.
 
The Divine Masculine is considered electrically charged.  The energy of the Divine Masculine is one of doing, direction, intellect, leadership, abundance and analytical thinking; can also be controlling, impatient and aggressive.  The masculine supports the process for whatever is being brought into manifestation via the Divine Feminine.  It is the highest, most inspiring and truest expression of masculinity brought about through your thoughts, words, actions and beliefs.  These aspects of the masculine can be expressed in a balanced or imbalanced manner.  An example of an imbalanced masculine energy might be if one becomes overpowering, ego-driven or perhaps rigid and inflexible. A healthy representation of the Divine Masculine is seen in the person who is strong, yet gentle and moves through conflict, while staying in a place of honesty, integrity and diplomacy.
 
The Divine Feminine is attractively magnetic and feels the world profoundly through the heart. The energy of the Divine feminine is one of being, allowing, nurturing, feeling, sensual, patient and compassionate; can also be unfocused, easily distracted and reckless.  She represents growth, in all aspects… spiritually, physically, emotionally and mentally. You birth many things… ideas, relationships, business plans or a family and it is the Divine Feminine within you which brings it to full fruition.  An example of an imbalanced feminine energy might be someone who is overly emotional, dramatic and stuck in the victim role; has difficulty making decisions and establishing healthy boundaries. A healthy representation of the Divine Feminine is connected to her power and understands the perfection of the process and how everything happens in Divine time.  She is open and receptive to the natural rhythms and flow of life yet knows when it’s time to take positive and fierce action.

With self-awareness you can bring these two energies within yourself into harmony.  It is normal to naturally be stronger in one aspect and perhaps lacking in another. It is also extremely helpful for you to learn to develop one or the other, where needed. The goal is not to be in perfect balance all the time or to even master all positive aspects of each of the energies as this would not always be appropriate. There are times in life when it is necessary to be less flexible or perhaps more emotional.  We would like to suggest you honor you for where you are while simultaneously working toward finding an understanding of why and where you negatively react, think and behave so instinctively. Be honest with yourself and honor your authenticity in the process.  Although shifts out of old negative patterns are integral in terms of harmony… Keep in mind you are Divine by design.  There is perfection in your true essence… whose attraction factor is also always in effect.
 
The inner child is the part of you who is playful, free and spontaneous as well as completely impulsive in terms of getting needs met.  Two-year-olds display the traits of the inner child perfectly… They are full of joy and completely in the moment. They will tell you exactly what they want, what they think and how they feel. They can also express their negative feelings with irrational rage in the form of temper tantrums and display incredible tenacity when it comes to getting what they desire. The basics needs of your inner child are still very present in your lives… No matter how old you are. It is important to know, the inner child holds all of your memories from childhood. When you become emotionally triggered or overwhelmed (especially in relationships) you tend to regress and revert back to your subconscious patterns in order to get your needs met. It is at these times the inner child can wreak havoc on your relationships.  For those of you (read most of you) who were not adequately nurtured or made to feel safe, sane and secure, your inner children can play out destructively throughout adulthood. Even if you weren’t raised with a lot of childhood trauma, everyone has an inner child that needs to be loved, played with and nurtured as well as directed and brought back into line when necessary.  Allowing your inner child too much free reign and over-indulging them can lead you to patterns of feeling unhappy unless you get your way. If the inner child doesn’t receive enough attention from you, you may feel like you are unworthy of what you desire, feel uncared for and as if you don’t matter.  The inner child, when left feeling unloved can become an adult who either feels weak and in fear or uses rage and manipulation as a tool for getting their needs met.  It is your responsibility as the leader of your Divine Family to re-parent your inner-child; meet your needs that were not met for you as a child and love them fiercely.  Isn’t it perfect that you have these masculine and feminine energies within to appropriately re-parent, love and care for them in the way they have craved for so very many years. 
 
It is important to understand these aspects of yourself so you can improve your sense of well-being and create healthy, harmonious relationships.  Harmony amongst these aspects of yourSelf will lead to increased confidence, authenticity and feelings of positive self worth. Each and every relationship you have depends most upon one thing… The relationship you have with yourself. Commit to this Divine Family within.  Ask Spirit for help… You are much too amazing and spectacular to have anything but harmonious relationships… with yourself and others. You also owe it to yourself to take the steps to stay connected to Spirit…  Allow us the pleasure of helping you re-member with all these heavenly parts of who you are!  We dearly love each and every aspect of your Divine Being!
 
Giving love from the heart,
Maqa

Good day everyone,
 
My greatest desire fulfilled… This message finds all of you coming to the powerful realization that the most important relationship you have is the relationship with yourSelf! The God spark that is you on the other side of the veil… Spirit, Higher Self, Source, Soul, Guide, Angel, Inner Being, God Self, etc. There is no way for us to help you comprehend the inner workings of all that is you. Therefore, whatever you wish to call us truly matters not from our perspective… We only ask that you call us! We are one. We do honor your human desire to place us in boxes. After all, through the channel’s desire, I have placed my “energy” in the box known as “Maqa”.  Maqa means “reciprocity” in Hopi and this is truly significant in Tina's journey. The names your Guides take on are usually relevant to your journey here and our journey, together. We strive to connect in ways that are experientially satisfying for you!  We are most grateful to experience the joy and pleasure you receive from the divine melding that is “Us.” If our having a name helps you feel more connected to your true nature… So it is.
 
Keep in mind, Spirit is not someone or something outside of you. We are the larger essence of you which sits on the other side of the veil. We are the force that breathes you and are ever present. As part of your very being, we know everything there is to know about you. We know your truth, even when you try and hide it from your selves. We know the moment you are out of alignment with your own integrity and your divine nature. We let you know by speaking through your body and your senses… Are you listening? We ask that you pay particular attention to your feelings and emotions. This is one way we have of communicating with you. Your feelings are your internal GPS. It’s important for you to follow them past the logic of what your mind wants you to think about the way you feel. Spirit speaks through everything... We have many tricks up our hypothetical sleeves!
 
Forging this relationship is essential in your awakening process, as it not only positively impacts your human experience but our ascension as well!  Did you know as you awaken, evolve and ascend, we “rise” right along with you?  Again, we are truly one and are, therefore, inextricably allied on this journey home to your Self. 
 
Many are conditioned to believe you travel this road alone. This is simply not true… You have full access to an entourage of beings, your own Spiritual Support Team, ready to assist you in every given moment!  You also have what’s known as free will. You can choose to go it alone and we too must honor this choice. You are so free in your ability to choose, you can choose bondage. Your partnership with who you really are is truly your greatest untapped resource. We are always here to help… All you must do is ask!  So few actually take us up on this offer, we often wonder if you’re trying to put us out of business?!  ;-)
  
Your Spiritual Support Teams are your visionary partners who have a 360° view of where you are and where you desire to be. We know the shortest path to your desires and can inspire you to courageously move towards them. As the source of your power, we can help you own your true worth. Spirit will guide you into alignment with that truth which creates miracles and dreams come true. We teach you how to love by example… In turn you feel inspired to love yourself and others more deeply. We hold the space of no limitations and your heart’s desire.  Are you ready for this partnership?  It comes with great responsibility and great reward.
 
If you were to ask me the number one way you could forge the path of our cherished relationship, I would say… Ask us for help every day. How often do you actually ask Spirit for help? Some of you ask more than others. There are some who wait until the situation has reached preposterous proportions. There's no need to go it alone. Ours is a co-creative relationship. Perhaps it will help if I spark your imagination… Ask Spirit to:
 

• tell you what you most need to know
• help you see the truth
• help you resolve a situation in the highest good of you and all concerned
• help you see and recognize your mirrors
• help you see how your patterns are tripping you up
• help you know/feel the right decision for you
• help you see the next step clearly
• show you how you deserve to be loved
• help you see your own power
• help you own your magnificence
• help you know the feeling of abundance
• help you learn how to have more compassion for yourself and others
• help you find forgiveness for yourself and others
• help you protect your boundaries in a healthy and loving way
• help you find peace in your heart surrounding difficult circumstances
• help you let go of those things you cannot control
• help you with the timing of your day
• help you manage your schedule
• help you with a challenging conversation
• help you pick out your clothes…

 
The list goes on and on… Ask us anything! Just know that, if you ask a funny question, you may get a funny answer!  We have a great sense of humor! (the channel doesn’t always find me so humorous. ;) )
 
Trust in knowing the moment you ask, help has arrived. This is so even if you don’t see the physical evidence of it as yet.  Don’t forget to close this loop by looking for evidence of our arrival on scene!  We speak through everything…Be on the look-out. As you see evidence, may we suggest the best prayer we know of... Thank you, more please!  It is the gratitude and the request!  You are divinely supported.
 
YOU are the part of our consciousness incarnate, doing the work. We are always here, as promised, available to partner and assist. Many revere Spirit, in a way which places us in higher esteem than you place yourselves. As grateful as we are for your love and respect, our greatest wish is for you to turn some of this reverence inward. We are one…You are every bit as worthy. In every moment, we give thanks and praise to you for your service. We are grateful for the sacred honor of serving you from this side of the veil.
 
You are in the midst of some very exciting but also challenging times. Remember, what you focus your attention on expands. Focus some of your attention on your relationship with your Inner Being and discover the passion and joy that comes from co-creating your lives with the power that is You! This is your divine birthright…All for the price of asking. You are so dearly loved.
 
Giving love from the heart,
Maqa ​

Hi everyone,

I am so freaking excited to announce that I have co-created a retreat with my soul sister and colleague, Tina Provenzano called Rock All Your Relationships in Sedona, AZ October 24th-28th. Check out our retreat website! Tina and I are inviting 15 women who are ready to love and be loved fiercely, fearlessly and freely in all their relationships.  This is a transformative spiritual retreat that will open your eyes, expand your heart and leave your soul soaring while you soak up the sacred energies of the Red Rocks!  If you know a woman who might be interested in this incredible opportunity, please share this with them.
 
During this retreat, you will receive guided meditations, individual sessions, massages, downtime, healthy delicious meals, cozy accommodations and more...much more.  While this retreat is focused on creating and/or strengthening all your relationships, I believe the most important aspect of it is the gathering of women and creating a sacred sisters circle. Those of you who know me, know that I am a passionate relationship coach who enjoys bringing groups together to heal, learn, grow and have lots of laughs and fun.
 
However, I will be honest with you…I was a little bit disappointed when spirit told me this would be a retreat for only women.   I already gather and teach women through my Being Open to Love coaching program and have led weekend women retreats in the past.  I was hoping that this time I would lead a co-ed retreat because…well, why not.  So, I did what I normally do, I gave myself the opportunity to process my feelings and be with spirit’s guidance.
 
The truth is spiritual teachers, coaches and healers are always teaching what they most need to learn.  I have worked through a lot of my sisterhood wound, learned to be in my badass feminine and taught other women to do the same.   Now, I am going to take it to the next phase.  I will be teaching at an emotionally deeper level, sharing new tools, celebrating the divine feminine and leading this retreat with another talented, beautiful and badass woman. 
 
Why?  Because that dang old sisterhood wound still runs rampant in our world, in our communities, in our families, within our friendships and most importantly within YOU. The sisterhood wound is that longing to be seen, liked and appreciated by other women. It comes from a deep place within us that feels less than or not good enough and straight up just feeling disempowered as a woman.  The sisterhood wound exists because we were hurt by another woman whether she was our mother, sister, aunt, teacher, colleague or friend.  And within this hurt is a belief that creates competition, comparison, jealousy and at its extreme… displays itself as hurtful reactions. 
 
I have been there.  I have a boatload of experiences to share of feeling left out of the “clique or inner circle” of women whom I believed at the time were better than me or who deserved to belong and I didn’t.  It created a spell within me that kept me behaving in such a way that kept me OUT of the circle.  Not because someone was telling me to stay out because they didn’t like me or that I wasn’t worthy.  I was keeping myself out of the sister circle for fear of getting hurt, rejected and abandoned. 
 
How can you tell if you are experiencing life through a sisterhood wound?  Maybe you can relate to one or many of these:

1. You find yourself gossiping or trash talking to your co-workers or boss about a colleague just because she is a powerful successful woman.
2. You’re a mother and you judge other mothers for the way they raise or have raised their children.
3. You struggle with your relationships with your mother, sisters or aunts because they just don’t get you or treat you like you desire.
4. You don’t trust women because in your past a female friend stole your partner, your job, your_____ (fill in the blank).
5. If you were ever pregnant, you prayed to have a boy instead of a girl and the idea of having a daughter frightened the crap out of you or you felt complete dread.
6. You have very few, if any, women friends because you think they live in drama and are just so damn emotional.
7. You try to create friendships with women yet they just don’t stick and you don’t know why.
8. You have hurt women in your past and you struggle with making an amends.
9. You feel ignored by or disconnected from women.
10. You feel uncomfortable standing in your feminine energy.  You prefer to take charge, lead, make all the decisions, etc.  because this helps you to feel more in control.

Tina and I have both experienced and witnessed how being a part of a sacred sister circle is incredibly healing to our past wounds that have impacted our relationships with others and ourselves. We have experienced and seen how being part of a like-minded group of women and bravely trusting our vulnerability to be seen, helps us to see ourselves not only through our own eyes but through the eyes of another like us.  The circle returns home to you.  Being in a sacred circle of women helps you to love yourself more.  Loving yourself more deepens your relationships to others. 
 
Deep authentic bonds with women have created some of my most profound spiritual experiences because it has created trust and more compassion within myself that has spilled out into the world and into my relationships with other women.  There was once a time when the divine feminine was honored not just by men but by WOMEN!!!  Dearest sister it is up to us… to you.  We are the ones to break the spell that keeps us disconnected from our sisters, our feminine, our womanhood and from ourselves.  It's time…OUR TIME…to destroy the old paradigm and birth a new one together of healing, growth, connection, support and celebration. Sisterhood is a practice and a journey... and it's one that the world needs right now. If we are to BE in our Feminine Power, we must BE ourselves and open our hearts to each other!
 
Among the many things offered during the Rock All Your Relationships Retreat, we will:

• Create a sacred space to share our personal stories of Sisterhood challenge and triumph 
• Celebrate your divine feminine and sisterhood
• Encourage you to laugh, play and connect with yourself in a whole new way
• Teach you how to choose you and feel good about the woman you are in all your relationships

If you feel the call to heal your sisterhood wound and create a deeper connection to other women and most importantly to the woman that exists within YOU, then I Invite you to participate in this retreat.
 
It’s never too late to create the relationships of your dreams!

With love,
​Diana

Hi everyone,

​I am incredibly excited to tell you about the amazing retreat I’m creating with my Soul Sister and colleague, Diana Nieves called Rock All Your Relationships in Sedona, AZ and share our retreat website! This retreat is so near and dear to not only my heart, but also my path. Maqa, my Guide, revealed to me many years ago I would be doing a retreat on relationships.  At the time, my reaction was… Are you kidding me? You want me to lead a retreat on relationships?! Not exactly an enthusiastic YES but it was, honestly, how I felt at the time. Well it called my name for quite some time, while I got ready to be ready. I bet you can relate to feeling called toward something important to you or your path. You also may relate to the fact I hit the snooze/ignore button one or two (or ten) times. If you don’t already know, (I’m betting you do) you can only hit snooze on a call from your Soul for so long. The Soul is a very persistent part of our Being!  
 
The moment I decided to say YES (actually, I just didn’t say no), I got hit with this incredible wave of excitement! I quickly became overjoyed by all of the possibilities, connections, ideas and serendipities that came flooding in! When we align, “pushing” on doors isn’t really necessary – just a tap will cause them to fly open and then you can take the next step in front of you. That bliss of alignment lasted for, oh, I’d say 5 days or so? (Read: minutes)  I was flying high but my excitement turned to resistance and FEAR in what seemed like a New York minute! That was SO MUCH FUN… Not! You’ve gotta love the part of us that tries to sabotage our own dreams! No, seriously…We’ve gotta love it because that’s truly what it’s calling us towards.

For those of you who know me, you know the FEAR was not around leading retreats. I’ve led many successful groups and wonderful, life changing retreats…This is absolutely one of my passions and I’m always transformed by the experience! There’s nothing that inspires me more than bringing groups of women together for connecting with Spirit, sharing, laughing, learning, relaxing and forming sacred sisterhood bonds that restore our faith, passion and vitality at a Soul level. I can feel it… This retreat is going to be life changing - Maqa isn’t messin’ around!  J
 
My FEAR was actually old and it was back, with a twist!  :-\  Who the hell am I to claim I can lead/teach a group of women how to improve or, even better yet, ROCK all their Relationships?! And, this FEAR came on pretty strong!! Because we always attract what we most need to heal, I was met with some interesting questions from some of my greatest mirrors (friends and colleagues.) I heard “Why don’t you just do a nice easy, relaxing retreat with hiking, massages and some spiritual stuff?”  Someone else asked (rightfully so) “What makes you an expert on this topic and what would make me want to attend your retreat over another?” So, giving into my FEARS, I said: Hey Maqa… That’s a really great question! Why don’t we just do a nice easy/breezy retreat in the Red Rocks with hiking, massages and some fun spiritual stuff? Maqa said… Because your path is to teach what you most need to learn and this is part of your purpose. Many of you have experienced Maqa and as funny (sometimes J) and supportive (always) as he is, in true Spirit fashion, he always nudges (Read:  pushes) me/us into opportunities for greater love, growth and empowerment. It took a lot of love and encouragement to move myself into my resistance so I could actually see that, the thing behind the thing – behind the thing was me being afraid to put all my old dysfunctional relationship patterns and stories out there in, what feels like, a much bigger and scarier way. I’ve healed many layers of self judgment and it looks as though I’m moving through another. This is about me feeling safe enough to publically, be emotionally intimate. 

The other thing that “popped up” was I really don’t care for the term “expert”, especially when it comes to relationships. (More judgement – lol)  In my opinion, the term “expert” is thrown around far too often and there are way too many out there who are self proclaimed. So, up front, I don’t claim to be one. This was yet another piece… The thought that I had to be something I didn’t resonate with in order to run this retreat brought up a boatload of resistance. I realized, what I am is experienced! Chances are really good that I’ve been in my own version of where you are right now - more times than my Ego cares to recall or blog about, actually!  Honestly, I’m pretty sure I have run just about every self-sabotaging play on the relationship field!  And, what is also true is Diana can also relate! We can help you find your way out of the pile after a fumble and help you discover a new way to BE in the game of LOVE moving forward. So, let me run you through a few of those foul plays and you let me know if you can relate:
 
You’re an independent and capable woman who is smart and, to the outside world, also looks strong. You can take care of yourself and you’re not afraid to do the work. You’ve changed several of your pesky patterns and reaped some or maybe even many returns on your investment. Life is good but you also feel the desire or perhaps the call to be in a loving, healthy and happy relationship.  But, what happens when a potential partner enters the picture?  Why and how do we lose ourselves? And, how does it happen so quickly and easily? 

• You’re feeling the connections and “clicks” in so many directions.  You hope they feel the same way about you but, the more you begin to feel for them, the more you FEAR you’ll blow it and land ass up in the rejection pile! The fear of “getting it wrong leads you into over-analyzing and over analyzing increases the fear.  It’s a vicious cycle. As your mind fills in the blanks with all of your fears, you now begin to feel more insecure than ever and your fear of abandonment really kicks in. You give way too much of yourself far too quickly as, this is what you learned to do in order to receive love.  Before you know it, you’ve created a major imbalance in the relationship and you end up feeling unappreciated and abandoned.  Giving to others in order to receive anything (even and especially love) will never work.  I promise you… There is a way off of this not-so-merry-go-round! 
•  Have you found yourself hanging on or staying in relationships that, truth be told, don’t serve you?  There are so many reasons we do this.  Maybe you’re afraid to be alone or you dread “starting over”. Maybe you love this person but you’re not in love with them anymore and you just don’t know how to reconcile that.  Maybe you’re in it because it’s convenient and you think it’s easier this way.  Perhaps the thought of leaving is just too scary so staying in the relationship seems like the easier thing to do.  Maybe you’re just hoping it will get better on its own.  It won’t you know.  Both partners need to have a strong desire and be ready to roll up their sleeves and work on it.  I’ve stayed in a relationship (or 2) for too long.  In one, I stayed way past the expiration date and became hyper focused on wanting to heal myself, him and our relationship. I thought, with enough effort, maybe we could make it work.  It dragged on way too long. At some point, you really have to ask yourself… Is a worthwhile relationship supposed to be this unsatisfying or difficult?  That’s a no.  Good relationships are meant to stretch you… Not break you.  Learning the difference and knowing when to choose you is crucial.
• Maybe you’re just so afraid of feeling hurt (once again) that you are closing yourself off to any possibilities. Excuses?  You’ve got a million of them… All sabotaging your own desires and dreams!

Although I bet you’ve told yourself that you’re just going to forget about dating and relationships, you know, deep down, giving up is NOT an option. Your heart and Soul will continue to call you toward the relationship it longs for.  This Soul call is about being in a harmonious relationship with yourSelf.  From this space, you will feel strong enough to be your vulnerable self while standing in Divine union with a partner.  My entire life has been (and continues to be) the fodder for understanding we all have access to that “expert” we are seeking…  Right inside of us.  This is the place we will find our sense of safety, sanity and security!  It will, therefore, be my greatest pleasure to teach you to open to your own intuitive gifts so you can receive guidance from your own inner expert… Spirit!  
 
We questioned our decision for this retreat to address “all” of your relationships.  But, we soon realized the only variance between our relationships is in our mind.  And even though this retreat will absolutely improve all of your relationships, I believe I will personally attract amazing women who are looking to bring in or be in the thriving partner relationship they desire. So, if you read any of the scenarios above thinking, “this is me” and you’re ready to get down to business and change your patterns (Read: outcomes) then this is a phenomenal opportunity that you don’t want to pass up!  Get ready to laugh, cry, connect, relate and have some really BIG life changing Aha’s!   You don’t have to do it alone! 
 
One of the things Diana and I have both learned about changing stubborn patterns is, it can take a lot of desire, determination and it can also take a village! We both, from the beginning, whole-heartedly knew it would be powerful for you to spend a few hours of each day with us in group and another portion of your day diving deep, one-on-one with a personalized team of amazing practitioners.  Upon registering, you will have a one-on-one discussion with me where Maqa will match you with the best sessions and practitioners; completely customizing your transformational retreat experience.  We’ve initially brought on board some of the practitioners who’ve had a tremendous affect on my own healing journey.  They are each very special to me and are still my go to healers and sounding boards.  I love and respect each of them and I know you will too.  What they all have in common is they walk their talk and they’ve all been in the trenches.  They are all exceptionally intuitive, gifted and practiced in their craft.  They are also very much in service and really excited about being an integral part of this event.  I look forward to introducing them to you as we go forward. There will also be plenty of time dedicated to having fun, relaxing and re-charging amongst Sedona’s sacred red rocks!  Evenings are sure to be a blast… Or, more accurately designed to help you blast off!  Now, and especially with this amazing team we’ve assembled, I feel completely ready to help you ROCK ALL YOUR RELATIONSHIPS!   
 
Before you go… I do have a quick question (or 3) for you. What is your Soul calling you towards? Are you hitting the snooze button on your dreams because you don’t know what steps to take to change your patterns or release your fears? Are you ready to open to your heart and all it desires? Take it from me… Chances are it’s going to scare the crap out of you! Anything this important usually does. This is why we hit snooze and make excuses! It’s ok… It will keep coming back around because, YOU’VE GOT THIS! Your Soul does not deliver a dream you can’t achieve!  The FEAR is in your mind… It’s not real. I know because I’m someone who’s been there. I have and will continue to journey through the FEAR of being in relationship for two main reasons…. The pure joy of creating a life I desire and love and for the honor of helping others do the same.  
 If you are feeling called to attract in or improve upon the quality of your relationships, join us in Sedona, AZ from October 24-28, 2017! Go for your dreams… Whatever they are!!  If you are a man who has a lot of love for a woman who you think might benefit from joining us, please share it with them!  

BONUS:  We are also running a great early bird special!  I can promise you… You will go home feeling transformed. 

Much love,
Tina
