“Find the thought which is your great oppressor; find the King-Pin.

In the logging camps in the Spring, the logs are sent down the rivers in great numbers.

Sometimes the logs become crossed and cause a jam; the men look for the log causing the jam (they call it the King-Pin), straighten it, and the logs rush down the river again.”

~ Florence Scovel Shinn, from The Secret Door to Success

What your King-Pin?

The great oppressor that’s keeping you stuck … keeping you from being in the flow of your life’s growth and evolution?

I write about this in my latest Substack newsletter. Link in bio or DM me for a direct link.💫

How to know oneself? Pay attention.

My crystals after being charged by the full moon. 💫➡️ Second photo is of my personal crystal grid that was put together by astrologer Shelley Warren in the workshop I co-hosted with her online last night. I love learning about these tools that we can add to our spiritual toolbox! 💫 Shelley and I are also doing an in-person workshop in June where she aligns the ideal crystals according to your natal chart (plus your abundance crystal!) in Los Angeles. 🔮 And if you’re interested in our hosting another one online, let me know and we’ll put it together!

In my recent Substack article, I write about: “On Automatic Writing and How It Can Give You the Answers You’re Looking For”

I share the two different ways that gets my pen going, and I also get personal and share word for word my automatic writing from the other day.

This exercise has been helping me to tap into something greater — call it my Spirit Guides or call it Love. One is an idea from psychic medium MaryAnne DiMarco, and the other is from author Elizabeth Gilbert.

Recently I stepped into a new role as a podcast coach. This was a first for me!

I met Malin Svensson at an event held at my home last year. We struck up a friendship and one day she reached out to ask if I would consider being her podcast coach for the show she wanted to create.

This was a first for both of us! My first time as a podcast coach, and Malin’s first time as a podcast host.

If you don’t know Malin, now is your chance to get to know her. She is the celebrity trainer to the over 50 crowd, working with people like such as Jane Fonda, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Maria Shriver. 💫

Malin’s debut episode launched this week and features the iconic actress and activist Jane Fonda. How is that for knocking it out of the park with a first episode?!

I worked with Malin as her podcast coach, helping her to get her show off the ground, from start to finish. Malin came well prepared (because that is who she is) with the idea of her show, the name, and who she wanted to be in conversation with. She was very clear about her vision. Together we worked out the nitty gritty details over the course of about three months.

Malin was kind enough to give this testimonial: “Hiring Laurie Grossman was the best investment in starting my own successful podcast. Skip the classes and go straight to learning as you create your podcast step by step. I believe in hiring an expert when you want to start something new you don’t have a clue about. That expert is Podcast Coach Laurie.”

Hey, thanks, Malin!

Malin is a star student… and she is a wonderful podcast host and interviewer. She is clear, concise, and is passionate about defying age stereotypes so that we can all be inspired to live our lives to the fullest. On Age & Attitude, she’s offering valuable wisdom and practical advice on health, fitness, and personal growth tips.

Go follow her show—and hear all of Ms Fonda’s wisdom about age and attitude. Learn more .

Her podcast Age & Attitude can be found on all podcast platforms. Feel free to DM me and I’ll send you a link! 🎉

Today’s Mantra:

I allow the healing of any resistance I am holding.

I allow the dissolving of resistance into flow.

I allow the releasing and letting go of resistance to be my full powerful self.

It was overcast and misty at the beach this morning. Six of us gathered. The same faces are now showing up and I can’t express enough how happy this makes me. A community has formed. We are digging in deeper with each other — learning and sharing. Tears and laughter. Vulnerable hearts as we navigate our lives. Some of us have known each other for years; some are new in our world. Each morning we show up to do this, new revelations and ideas are shared. Egos are left behind — they stay back in our cars. We bring our spirits to the beach. I hope everyone reading this feels like they have a community they belong to, where you feel seen and accepted for who you are. If you don’t, reach out. Let me see you.

19/04/2024

When it comes to building spiritual structures there are two major things that help us to connect (and stay connected) to Spirit/Infinite Intelligence/the Divine/your guides. One is nature. And the other is community. You’ll experience both of these structures on Monday morning. We walk (at your own pace and in your own space), we circle up to talk and/or write, and we connect. Oh, and music. There will be music as we walk. Consider it your own personal beach track.

We will meet at 6:00 am. Early? Yes, however no one on these walks ever regrets being at the beach at this time, watching the sun rise, sometimes seeing dolphins, and feeling that gorgeous, expansive energy.

Send me a message if you’re able to join. I’ll send back details. 🌅 DM me or: 💌[email protected]

Get my Spotify playlist! 🎵

I’ve been leading Beach Walks & Community Circles every month since this past October, and for each walk, I curate a new soundtrack. This was my first playlist I made for my Mindfulness walk. Click the link in my bio to get it or DM the word Mindfulness.

On a recent trip to New York City, as I walked the streets and through Central Park, I popped in my earbuds and listened to several of my beach walk playlists and it was so fantastic! Different scenery, but still was the perfect soundtrack.

Music just has that power, from the ocean to the city streets. 🌊🌇

JOURNAL PROMPT #6

“Mystery is at the heart of creativity. That, and surprise.” - Julia Cameron

Sometimes we need to surprise ourselves a a catalyst for change in our lives.

MANIFESTING TIP: if you were to do ONE thing to prepare yourself for the upcoming Lunar New Year and The Year of the Wood Dragon, do this BEFORE FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9th…

shares this Feng Shui MANIFESTING tip in our conversation on Hold the Light podcast this week…

Treat yourself to a brand new doormat.

Why? Kristina says it’s important because it’s like a landing pad for opportunities, money, and abundance to come into your home.

Make sure you include:

1) The doormat should be as wide as the door, but not wider.
2) Make sure the doormat is solid and doesn’t have any holes or etchings in it. Don’t want money and opportunities to fall through the cracks!
3) Avoid any monograms. You don’t want anyone walking on your name.
4) Thickness does matter — get a thicker doormat. It brings in more abundant opportunities.

Hear more of my conversation with Feng Shui expert Kristina Hollinger on HOLD THE LIGHT podcast. DM the work LIGHT or find the link in bio.

Part 2: Figuring it out. One way or another.

Part 1: I think we’re going to sell our piano. No one has played it in years, me especially. With the thought of it going away, suddenly I wanted to play it. To reconnect with that younger part of me when I played way (way) back when. I used to play this song “Send in the Clowns” as a teen and my mom would peek around the corner listening to me, watching me play. It was always one of her favorites. I still remember what it felt like to be young. I remember how I felt when I was the same ages that my son and daughter are now. I guess that I’m feeling nostalgic. I’m feeling all kinds of feelings. My son is visiting colleges this weekend, as he makes his final decision to where he wants to go this fall. Time is really going by fast now. We are coming upon a letting go process now. Of memories, of ego, of things. Reality checks are happening. And looking to our future. It’s all about choices, those that we’ve made and those that we will make. I asked my husband recently how he wants to feel in his life. He answered “peace.” For me, it’s ‘freedom.” Of course I’ll take that peace, too. Some choices of how we move forward in our near future depends on how we want to be in our later future. Life is weird and tender and emotional. Anyway, this is a video of me testing out that muscle memory and giving myself the reminder that I can figure things out, even in the messy middle. Part 2: coming next where I’m figuring it out in real time.

Intuition! Signs & synchronicities! Connecting with loved ones who have passed! Today on Hold the Light podcast I’m talking with Orly Altaras, a psychic medium, about all these things and more. I love the stories she shares! @laraandlou I met Orly through an online community we both belonged to and it was an instant connection. Since meeting, we’ve talked many times, we’ve done an IG Live together and we hosted a New Moon Ceremony in person together. (We’re going to do a workshop together, so stay tuned!) As a psychic medium, Orly offers 1:1 sessions with people helping them to connect with loved ones on the other side; she does small group readings; she leads classes on how to tap into your intuition; and also is the owner of Lara & Lou, an online shop that provides goods and services for your spirit and home. Come join us in this conversation! Hold the Light is found on all podcast platforms. Or DM Laurie @laurie.gunning.grossman the word LIGHT for a direct link.

Who’s ready to talk wishes?! On Hold the Light podcast today, I’m talking with Alexa Fischer, founder of Wishbeads. @wishbeads.official Alexa, who is a teacher, entrepreneur, and author of the book Wishwork, is the creator of Wishbeads — intention-setting, wish-granting jewelry. Basically, you wear your wishes! Her company has a mission, as she says: to inspire millions of people to make exciting wishes, take action, and put in the work to make those wishes come true. Alexa shares such great inspo and words of wisdom in our conversation. She also walks us through a breathing exercise and visualization towards the end of this episode, so you’ll want to listen all the way through to reap the benefits of her teaching – and to connect to your own wish. ✨✨ Find Hold the Light on all podcast platforms or DM the word LIGHT.

Have you ever had the experience of a sound bath? It’s truly magical. That’s how I met Alison Liepzig, who is a guest on Hold the Light podcast today. @alisonleipzig Ali led a sound bath experience in my hometown of Los Angeles, which I was able to attend after hearing about Ali’s work from a friend. When it was over, I knew I wanted to talk with Ali here on Hold the Light. Ali has her hands in several spiritually-inspired spaces. She is the co-founder of Soul Camp Creative, which is a sacred strategy house committed to serving spiritual entrepreneurs. She’s also a spiritual teacher, retreat and camp leader, and a sound and vibrational healer. It’s her work with sound and vibration that we’re focusing on today. I’m excited for you to hear this conversation and learn more about the power of sound. Comment the word LIGHT or find the podcast on all podcast platforms or in the link in my bio. #holdthelight #soundbaths

Making it easy to meditate! ✨ The one thing I hear over and over is the importance of having a meditation practice. To make it part of our daily devotion and dedication. It’s one of the highest forms of self-care. And it can be however you want to do it—from one minute to 20, or beyond. Sit in silence, or repeat a mantra, or listen to a guided meditation. Figure out whatever feels right to you! Allow it to change and morph. There are no rules—except to make time to do it daily. Direct message me the word SHORTCUT for my free “Illuminate Your Light” meditation and instructions on how to set up a shortcut on your iPhone that immediately puts your phone on Do Not Disturb and loads the meditation within seconds. ✨ My mission is to make it easy so that it becomes a habit. Your present and future self will thank you.

New on Hold the Light podcast this week: Rev. Liliana Barzola, renowned psychic intuitive. Learn more @holdthelightcollective ✨ We are talking energy and intuition! Comment or DM the word LIGHT for a direct link to the episode.

Giving you a tour of some spaces in my home as I’m getting ready for the Lunar New Year and The Year of the Wood Dragon. Special guest appearance from my son. ✨✨✨
