In this video I talk about the energy surrounding us going into the new year and how you can tap into it to start creating your most expansive 2016 right now!

If you love this video and want to dive even deeper, I’m holding a two hour online intensive this Wednesday on “Magnetizing Abundance” to rocket launch you into the New Year! You can join us live via Google Hangout or just watch the recording at your leisure. We are going to bust through whatever has been blocking you from being a magnet for the life you desire and tap into the stream of abundance for 2016. Head on over here to read all the details and check out my facebook or instagram for a special discount code. 😉

It’s the most magical time of the year! As most of you know, I LOVE tapping into the energy of auspicious dates whether it’s a new moon or 11/11, certain times are just natural energetic portals for us to reach new levels of clarity, joy and abundance and we are rapidly approaching perhaps the most widely recognized all over the world, incredibly transformative, energetic time of the year — THE NEW YEAR! Even before I started setting bi-monthly intentions with the moon cycles, followed angel numbers and astrology, I was always sooo obsessed with the new year. The idea of having a fresh start, a clean slate and a chance to really take an inventory of what I was ready to create for 365 blank days just waiting to be painted upon still brings my whole body to a buzz. So last year I started doing special New Year sessions and they were such a joy – mapping out the year ahead based on each woman’s soul desires and guiding them to get clear on what they are really ready to step into was electric. I knew that I had to offer it again.

In fact, this year, these sessions are even more special — not only am I in an even higher place energetically from all the amazing lessons and experiences of 2015 but I have decided that moving forward into 2016 I will no longer be taking one on one clients for the time being. I’m creating some wonderful resources for you, so there will be no lack of content or guidance from me but with my upcoming schedule seeing clients regularly has to be on hold for the time being. So this is a great opportunity to have some one on one time with me if you’ve been contemplating it – take advantage of this experience to pick my brain, allow me to hold space for you and to co-create a life that truly lights you up with me.

I’m not about this “New Year, New You” stuff — the you right now is perfect. Together we are just going to take you to the NEXT LEVEL of your being for 2016. Think of it as a system upgrade. We are going to install new technology to support you for functioning at this higher level of your life – a level that’s filled with more grace, ease, flow and abundance than ever below. A level of living that has your heart smiling and your mind at ease, are you ready?

 

New Year, Next Level Session

A 90 min intuitive intensive via skype/phone (possibly in person avail in NYC or LA) where we dive deep into creating a framework for your highest manifestation of 2016. We will begin with a short meditation honoring all the abundance, joy and struggles from 2015 and then enter a guided visualization for what we are ready to create and step into for 2016. We will discuss what came up for you, what foundation you can lay down to support that next level of operating for the new year and release any blocks that might be preventing you from stepping into that reality. You will leave feeling clear, energized and excited about the immense possibilities for 2016 with actionable tools to help your create the life you desire as well as the confidence and personal power to magnetize it towards you.  $333

 

Spaces are limited – because I will no longer be doing one on ones, I have opened it up to 10 spaces, both the end up this month and in the first couple weeks of January to accommodate. Please email CassandraBodzak@gmail.com ASAP to schedule your session before spots fill up.

 

In this video, I discuss the difference between having the call to RISE and step up to a new level of responsibility and expansiveness in your life and knowing when you need to take some things off your plate. I also re-cap the wonderful well + food fest event I did in NYC with chef Daphne Cheng and the importance of melding the wellness and foodie worlds.

Below are some glimpses of the amazing night that I’m so happy I said “yes!” to. Daphne Cheng and I collaborated on a fun, haute, plant-based menu and the event marked the grand opening of her gorgeous new event space in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Exhibit C. Our intention was to create an evening that celebrated good food, incredible people and the merger of both the fun and the functional side of taking care of yourself and what you put into your body.

I began the evening with a short talk about how it came about and then guided guests in a meditation to get that back in touch with their bodies, releasing any stress or tension they may have been carrying from the week before and centering them in the present and their intention for the food they were about to eat and their whole experience of the evening.

well+foodmenu

The menu went over very well, but my far away favorite was this truffled cauliflower soup with roasted apples, fresh herbs and wild mushrooms. The entire menu was seasonal and based on Daphne’s farmer market finds as well as both of our personal tastes of the fall.

This was the first event that I both cooked for, hosted and spoke at! My heart was pumping like mad all night but I couldn’t have felt more aligned, full of joy and immensely grateful to be able to share so much of myself and my gifts with everyone who attended. I really sat in this beautiful space of grace while watching the night unfold exactly as it needed to – hiccups and all!

Daphne is the only person I’ve ever collaborated with on this level of menu creation, food prep and event execution and it was such a beautiful melding of both of our passions. I could not have imagined a more cohesive or loving partnership. I feel beyond blessed to have had our paths cross and I’m so excited for what the future will bring for the both of us and more events like this!

Of course, how I could I forget the incredible goodie bags and supportive sponsors we had for the night! All the guests received this wonderful LOVE totes (that are now my go-to farmer’s market bag, BTW) from LeSportsac, cardamon (our spice of the night for dessert) from Frontier Coop, gift cards from RESERVE for dinner, a free week of smoothie delivery from Green Blender and of course my favorite — chakra essential oil roll ons from Aura Cacia!

I’m so grateful to everyone who helped make this event happen. everyone who attended and of course myself for making the choice to rise to this very important occasion. I hope the guidance in the video resonates with you and helps you navigate the opportunities in your life with more ease and grace. Please comment below and let me know what comes up for you!

Welcome to Eat with Intention TV, a show dedicated to teaching you how to fuel your your body and nourish your soul through food, meditation and self care so that you have the energy and the tools to create a life that lights you up! In this first episode, we dive right in to my five steps to begin to start eating with intention so you can become more mindful about your eating today!

I am beyond excited to share this new project with you, it has been a labor of love every inch of the way. Ever since The Taste, I have thought about having a cooking show, however, the kind of cooking show I was determined to have wasn’t something that many producers were willing to put on air. For me, the food conversation goes way beyond me showing you how to make a quick, delicious recipe on camera, it’s about your relationship with food and your body, it’s a conversation of self-love. With “Eat with Intention TV” we strive to ignite a conversation around food and offer an inspiring dialogue for you to begin a journey towards a more holistic way of living. Some episodes will have full blown recipes, others with be demystifying certain ingredients and they’ll be a few like this first one where just zero in on an important topic in the transformation around how you relate to food. I hope you’ll join us each Wednesday and let’s go on this journey together!

Life truly begins when we start listening to that divine whisper in our soul. The call, straight from our heart, to do that thing we were put on this planet to do.

For me, it took having my little brother getting diagnosed with a serious illness and ending a three year relationship with a man I thought I’d be with forever to finally wake up and start listening.

It wasn’t that I was totally ignoring what was in my heart before, I had been fiercely drawn to acting and dance from my childhood and had ventured the path less traveled passionately. There was no denying that I was fueled from something within and it allowed me pick a career that had no guarantees and pursue it fearlessly. However, I had come toward the end of the road with acting, it was like a romantic relationship that was no longer serving you and it felt so strange to even think about leaving because you spent so much time loving that person so much.

I don’t look back at all those years spent acting as a mistake, in fact, I’m so grateful for them because they taught me such valuable lessons that I utilize today, they made up the fiber of who I am. It wasn’t until the sadness I faced in my own life propelled me toward a state of being where I NEEDED to follow my joy to move forward that I grew out of it. My little “love project”, a healthy living blog, became the focus of my days. Meditating, taking care of myself and sharing what I was doing with others was all I wanted to do. It brought such happiness – I didn’t even THINK about making any sort of a business out of it till I started getting emails from people wanting to coach with me.

How could I not help them? But who was I to do this work?

I knew I needed to help these women through the struggles I had been able to navigate in my life but I was seriously questioning my ability to make an impact.

“When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” – A Course in Miracles

Once I said a big hearty “YES!” to my calling, I quickly added, “but I need you to show me how!”.

And just like that the teachers appeared, the youtube videos I needed to watch popped up on my feed, the book I needed to read fell of the shelfs and the programs I needed to embark on showed up.

Gabby Bernstein was already a light on my spiritual path and a tremendous force of inspiration in my life so when I heard she had an audio course called, “God is my Publicist” I knew this was my kind of business talk. I devoured it over the course of a few days, wrote out every exercise, soaked up each visualization and sat in the various meditations to get clear about what I was here to say and who I was here to serve. Words can’t do justice to the power that one course had in helping me create the thriving soul centered business I have today, the tools I learned from Gabby are ones that I will still regularly touch back on whenever I need to recenter.

Now, I have the great privilege of having coaching clients who come to me for spiritual business guidance, my online “love-based business workshop” was a hit and I had been really feeling the call to share more of my light-based business practices with you. So when Gabby gave me a call to see if I wanted to partner up for the launch of her amazing Spirit Junkie Master Class Digital, I knew it was a sign to make it happen!

This past weekend I had a tremendous wake up call and a sharp return to FUN (aka LOVE). I was hanging out with my girlfriend who had just gotten back from a beautiful trip to Morocco and chatting away about all the things I had to get done before my move this coming Monday when she totally called me out on the drained look that took over my face as I listed off the tremendous amount of tasks on my place.

She was right. I was letting myself be weighed down by the sheer amount of items and had forgotten all about the FUN that got me to want to do all these things to begin with.

After a little back and forth it was clear to see that I had been taking life far too seriously. I managed to suck all the fun out of the amazing things I was deep down excited to be able to create because of the weight in which I was holding them.

I realized that I’ve gotten to where I am today because I’ve LEAD WITH WHAT LIGHTS ME UP and it’s important to not lose sight of that.

This is all about the journey not the destination. There is no destination, spoiler alert, we are constantly sailing new shores and arriving a new ports only to stock up some goods and move on to the next adventure. So it’s crucial that we start loving the journey, cherishing the day to day and really following our fun in each moment.

This snapped me back to my truth, I realized that I needed to bring back the fun and hold everything a little more lightly. I rescheduled or canceled things on the agenda that didn’t feel fun and tackled my soul centered project with an attitude of JOY not obligation. The result? Things got done faster and with more ease. 

A lot of people ask me who my publicist is and I love to get a good laugh about it.

“The Universe?”

That’s the truth. It’s through following my fun, leading with what lights me up and just pursuing what brought me joy that I’ve not only found my tribe but attracted amazing opportunities to share my message. So whatever stage your at, whether your trying to meet like-minded friends or you want to sit next to Oprah on Super Soul Sunday, or both, cause why not?! The secret sauce is in the DOING, it’s in the JOY, when you do something that makes you come alive, you awaken that in all those around you and that’s how you naturally start a movement of love.

Want even more tips on growing your tribe and attracting media for your heart-centered message? My lady, Gabby Bernstein, has a free training video out right now that dives into how she manifested media for her message and ended up on Dr.Oz, Oprah, The New York Times Sunday Style section and more. Check it out here.
