Is Your ‘About Me’ About You?

In episode 74 of the Biz Alchemy podcast, Jacquelyn shares what’s important about your ‘About Me’ page or Bio from an energetic perspective. Does it invite heart connection? Or is it a list of certifications and courses which focus on mental connection?
She shares a story about a long-forgotten part of herself that has come back into her awareness. She takes you on a journey into the essence of the rose and the lineage of women who are linked to its frequency, The Sisterhood of the Rose.

Lovely to have you back and how are you faring after that full moon lunar eclipse that we've just had?

Oh my gosh,

In fact,

I mean I know there's always a build up to an eclipse and we've been in the middle of eclipses but oh the last week I have really felt it like not in a negative way.

I don't even know how to explain it but I was definitely receiving upgrades,

Shall we say,

And I'll actually dip into that a little bit today.

So today's topic is about you but it's also about me so we're going to talk a bit about both but one thing I just want to make clear before I launch into today's topic,

Well it's an introduction into today's topic,

Is let's start with one simple truth.

You are not your modalities or your toolbox.

So in my newsletter last week if you receive my newsletter you would have had a little introduction to this.

I'm going to expand on last week's newsletter topic which I called do you hide behind your tools and title.

So today I'm going to touch on that a little bit but then also go off on another tangent.

Now even though I've called this is your about me about you obviously the about me is referring to a website page which many people call the about me.

If you don't have a website that is fine because there will be somewhere that you have a bio.

So in your social media whether it's on maybe a booking link people use for you somewhere you are going to have some information about who you are.

So what I'm interested to know is does that bio or about me page,

If I read it would it give me a chance to feel your energy,

To feel who you are or does it tell me every course you've done since 1990?

It's a little boring when that happens and frankly I don't care.

If I am reading someone's about me page and it is listing all the courses or the accreditations that they have got in the last 20 years I just switch off.

It's just so not why I'm there,

It is not why I am reading that page.

I don't care.

You know I've got to be honest qualifications don't mean anything to me.

Okay if I was seeing an accountant I would like the fact that they were a qualified accountant but as I talked about in my newsletter that really comes from their old paradigm occupations and since I'm talking about a new paradigm of business I'm imagining most people listening to me are in new paradigm well they're not even occupations are they?

It's just you,

It's you showing up being you and sharing your gifts.

So I don't care about the piece of paper.

Half the time those modalities I don't even know what they are anyway but I want to know do you speak to me?

Can I connect with your heart when I read about you?

And I'm always fascinated to know what led you to this place.

What led you to share these gifts?

I mean don't you love that?

Don't you love hearing people's story?

Story is what connects us.

That's why I show up here every week and tell you stories and have guests who tell you stories.

Stories connect us.

So when I'm reading someone's bio or someone's about me page I want their story.

What's inspired you?

Oh I just love knowing that and that gives me that connects my heart with your heart and that's what helps me know as in an inner knowing whether I want to continue our relationship or not.

So I'm going to share a story with you today which actually tells you a little more about me and it also is an illustration of this process although interestingly I didn't go searching in this case it came to me which I think is tends to be how I end up working with people anyway.

I received a birthday present from a friend who has known me for at least 15 years and when we first connected I was immersed shall we say considerably considerably in my woo I will call it that I was really exploring my my spirituality my spiritual gifts and I'd been on a journey at that point for about five years I suppose focusing on a particular direction which I'll talk about in a moment.

Anyway she gifted me for my birthday the Rose Oracle a deck of oracle cards by Rebecca Campbell as I opened them and saw them and I was like oh and it took me right back to where I was at the time we met and she said to me remember you were so immersed in your work around the Sisterhood of the Rose and I went oh my gosh and like it's something I remember but it's not really something I've revisited I was fully immersed in it and I couldn't remember how that started but I was writing a book which I had called The Rosa Line it was about the lineage of the rose and it was a channeled book and I was connecting in with different women throughout history some known some not they'd been eliminated from our history and I was channeling their story and so a couple of well-known ones were one was Joan of Arc and one was Nefertiti but each was represented by a different color rose and that color rose held their energy so I was bringing through the story of of the rose and that color and how it came to be on earth and then I was also telling the story of that particular woman and how she was activating the earth what codes she was activating in the earth so I was fully immersed on this I remember I used to walk on the beach so even back then and I didn't have a phone to record into in those days but I had like a little dictaphone I would take with me on the beach and I would record as I was walking and so the story would just come through me and then I'd go home and type it up well no I did have a computer then I didn't type I wasn't like typewriter days I did have a computer to load it up onto so anyway my friend gave me this beautiful rose oracle and when I got home that evening and I it was the end of my it was on my actual birthday and I pulled it out and each card it was like each card was revealing another part of myself helping me to remember this time but it's amazing you know in that length of time it's amazing what you forget and I thought I knew I'd thrown out the books I remember throwing them out a few years ago where I'd written a lot of my stuff but what I had done is I still had a lot of my computer notes and certain things I'd written in those books I had scanned and uploaded to my computer so I knew it was on my computer I just haven't looked at it for a very long time and every time I change computers I've carried it over but I've just never looked at it so I'm opening these cards I'm like oh I'm gonna have a look let me just go on onto my computer and see what I can find what you know I can't even remember why I started writing this story and the first thing I opened up was a journal entry that I'd obviously written and then scanned to keep and it was actually about the only modality I ever learned was pranic healing and that was I knew it was around 20 22 years ago but I could never remember whether I learned that after my son was born and he's 24 now or after my first daughter Heidi was born and she's 22 but I knew it was around that time anyway the first entry I opened up I was pregnant with grace my third child and I'd gone to learn the pranic healing I'd gone that weekend so I described it and I said because I was pregnant the teacher didn't want anyone else working on me so she actually was doing the work with me so in that it was a bit of a bonus because she channeled through some information for me and she said to me you understand the truth of the rose and the lineage and the different colors and what they represent something along those lines I had completely forgotten this would you believe that was the first page I opened up that memory I mean one I'd forgotten that I was actually pregnant at the time and it was actually my third child whereas I always thought it was my first or second when I did this training and that message came through so then I started to read through a little bit more and get a feel and basically what unfolded is over the next couple of years I started to tap into this a little bit more not long after doing that course we actually moved up to Byron Bay where I currently live or the or the area anyway of Byron Shire and so I started to channel this information then we ended up having to go to Perth to live for eight months and in that time because Perth had so many roses where I live here in Byron it's too humid they don't grow very well and Perth had so many roses and there were lots of rose gardens and around where I was in the hills I used to go and sit with the different color roses and bring through the energy and bring through the story and so I've had all that recorded and then it was when I returned to Byron that I started to do the beach walking and bringing through the energy of these different women as well so I was fully immersed in this my kids were babies I mean they were sort of you know I had three four and under so it wasn't a full-time thing because obviously I was quite busy but I played with it for a few years and it was also after returning to Byron from Perth that I really started to move more into my sound healing playing around with that and well no I wasn't playing around I mean I was offering sessions and then as I was doing that I began to trust more in my clairvoyance because the more I was sounding it was clearing my clairvoyance my clear audience so that was unfolding at this time as well and I think opening myself to the book coming through was also helping with that so this was such a big part of my journey the rose energy and the and the sound healing and the rose journey eventually led me into my interest in Mary Magdalene and her story well the the woman or you know that we know as Mary Magdalene but also the the energy that is the Magdalene now and that energy became a very big part of my life a really strong guiding influence and as part of the Rosa line as is Mother Mary so I really dived into exploring her energy and studying a lot of history of that time I read so many books to do with the esoteric interpretation of Jesus and Mary Magdalene I dived into all the Templar and Cathar information from France in particular and then that's what eventually led me in 2007 to going to France to organize a group to to take over there to the sacred sites that were to do with the Rose line and particularly with Mary Magdalene so that sort of all led into that and I did those journeys I ended up I didn't do a lot I ended up doing four journeys over about a seven year period but it was very very powerful for me and it was on one of well actually it was on the recce the the original journey I did for that is actually where I met Mark my partner who was also very much into all of that that I was into at the time and we met in southern France in a place called Renly Chateau and if I go through my photos of that time I've nearly always I've just got roses I've got so many photos of roses in France and very often to do with some of these sites I was going to there was a rose in front and I was capturing that and I even remember going to a vineyard once because I was doing some other work over there as well in France and going to a vineyard near Bordeaux it was actually called the Magdalene and there were because often over there in the at the vines they have a rose bush at the end and so I've actually even got this photo of the vineyard and the roses and the name of the the vineyard in the back so it was very much a part of who I was but you know life moves on and without going into a whole lot of detail there was a point where I had to actually start making money I wasn't making money doing what I was doing a little bit but not enough to survive I actually that's around the time when I started to look at going back into physiotherapy to be able to earn a regular income and as I did that it I left all this behind I left the rose behind I left the tours behind even the sound I left all of that behind it was to be another seven or eight years before I returned and studied life coaching and then remembered about my energy work I had played a little bit with it over that time and I'd run meditations occasionally and so I hadn't completely abandoned it but it certainly wasn't my focus so it's only been in the last five years that I've really moved back into this but I haven't gone back to the rose until these cards arrived so this last week has actually really cracked open something in me last week when I was on a call with the Bizalchemy playground ladies and I was telling them this a short version of this and one of the ladies said to me will you go back to writing the book but I can't because it's exactly that it's going back to it and it's not where I am now it's not who I am now but I know that I am stepping into I guess I could say the priestess energy that embodied oh I just got all over body chills as I said that that embodied this lineage of the rose now you know what I've just gone into that whole story without I've completely gone on a tangent from what I was going to tell you which was about I hope you enjoyed it anyway there's a bit more about me but it was about the fact that when I opened those cards and saw it I think in there Rebecca who created the cards tells her story it was a story that resonated a lot with me she's Australian she now lives in Glastonbury and the way she described her relationship with mother earth and with the roses I felt like she was an aspect of me it felt like she was sharing exactly what I experienced 15 to 20 years ago on that journey and she's experienced it more recently in the last decade I think but reading her story was just like oh yeah that's me that's me and what it made me do is email her because I just had to say thank you I had to say thank you for for opening this in me again and I gave a really brief little history very brief couple of paragraphs but I just wanted to thank her for being herself for being authentic for sharing her journey and you know I sent the email I didn't well I didn't get a response from her I got a response from her team just going oh thank you that's really lovely but that was okay because I didn't do it to get a response I did I just wanted to acknowledge her truth so that really touched me you know I went on to her website and I looked at what she does and although there's nothing that's really grabbing me at the moment she's working through Hay House so it didn't feel quite right for me but I know there's something there and maybe one day I will get a card reading with her or I will go to she does have a workshop in June so there might be something there but the reason I wanted to share this story with you was not only to reveal a bit more about myself that you may not know but also to share that when someone is authentic when they tell their tale what brought them to where they are now if you feel in your heart oh my god I feel such a connection to you I feel like I understand you I feel like our souls our paths were meant to cross in this way you know when you feel that that's when you get the right clients that's when you get the customers who love you and so your about me page your bio is a chance to capture that and when I look at my about me page now I wrote that probably three to four years ago and it's on my mind always I must go back and change my about me page but whenever I go back and I look at it I sort of feel like well that's all still true and it was very much focused on me moving into speaking my truth and being my authentic self and that's what I support my clients to do and when I read it I feel like well that is me like that is what I am still doing and so I end up not changing it but I think there is more to add because I have obviously evolved in the last three to four years and maybe I've been holding off because this next piece that's dropping in for me now is a vital part of that so where is this taking me I'm I don't know I know that part of the reason for beginning my patreon membership was to allow me a space to bring through my priestess energies if you like outside of the business sphere I wanted to be able to play outside of the business focus and that's what the receiving channel is but now this next piece has dropped in it feels like oh my gosh there's even more there's a lot more to this and I don't know yet what that is when I hold my solstice retreat my mini retreat that I have every equinox and solstice I feel like I will bring through more of this energy it will be a little bit different to how I've done it before I'm going to allow myself to embody my priestess more and play around with it and maybe play around and bring the rose energy in I don't know I'm just exploring this as I talk with you but the other thing that's come to me and I've been contemplating the last few weeks is actually holding a day a sacred day in person day here in Byron Bay where I live for women to come who want to be immersed in this sacred energy and again I wasn't sure what the focus of this would be would it be about business maybe but I feel like it's going to give me a chance to really move in to this and hold the space that I'm being asked to hold for the women who attend to really I don't know I was about to start exploring it I don't know what it is yet but I feel it's there I'm actually feeling quite teary as I talk about it so there's definitely something expanding in me something breaking through now before I finish I want to share with you I did just draw a card for you before I started recording the podcast I said okay for all my beautiful beautiful tribe who listen to my podcasts and are listening to this episode what is it that you want to tell them about their about their about me page about showing up and sharing who they are and the card is whispers of mother earth and the themes of that are creativity ideas inspiration artist writer channel so harness that because I know you have that in you and bring that through on your about me page and attract in that magnificent tribe who at a soul level have agreed to connect in with you this lifetime so you can activate each other thank you for listening to me talk about me until next time have an alchemical week in your business

I love roses, and I’m intrigued to hear more of your discoveries with them. 🌹

You touched on so many things that resonate with me! Alchemy has been an interest of mine. Within the past maybe 3-6 months I keep getting more and more information about it and it’s leading me on an adventure that I am thoroughly enjoying.
France has been a place my mother and I want to visit. We both share similar challenges in our lives that bond us and I want to explore that and begin living my best life. I’m unsure what the blocks are from being able to live all out, if that makes sense.
Wow! Retreats are my jam! I love them. But I feel like I could not travel that distance without feeling guilty with little ones at home. Ugh, blockages.
Anyway! This was really great and I want to learn to speak like this.
🙏🏾🌸🙏🏾🤗🥰
