Hello, and welcome to Wisdom on the FrontPorch, the wonderful podcast.
I love showcasing people.
And today, we have Natalie with us.
And, Natalie, you are so vibrant.
You know, we were just talking before the showabout memory means water and light, and that is
you.
(00:29):
But our audience may not know who you are andwhat you do.
So can you tell us just a little aboutyourself, please?
Okay.
So well, well, hi.
And I'm kinda honored and surprised that youasked me, and I it was just fully aligned with
(00:51):
my wishes yesterday.
Like, okay, universe.
I'm I'm I'm ready for sharing who I am now.
So this is, like, me at my best.
I magically, I do magic.
Like, I know my my when my soul is inalignment, I call in the the beautiful magical
(01:20):
things in my life.
And I've been who I am is I kind of been ainvisible person and being, like a mermaid for
a long time until well, it kinda I get I get inand out of the depth of the water.
(01:47):
So trying my way to kind of feel safe in thisworld.
I've been hurt and abused and all this sort ofchildhood where I wanted to reinvent my life
and myself a couple of times.
And I from being a stormwater expert andlandscape architect, I became an artist and
(02:13):
really because I was receiving kind ofconnection through my painting, and my painting
would become reality.
So I started to notice that I was mainlypainting for my pleasure to come alive after or
(02:34):
throughout winters with, and they became kindof really longer and longer, and I needed more
light.
So I became and listening to my soul and myintuition through painting and following my
(02:54):
love for water.
And I can say now I'm a guide for old soul whoare on a hat to remember who they are and why
they're here.
That's wonderful.
Yeah.
You know, we you know, I'm I've enjoyed thearticle you have on Wisdom on the Front Porch
(03:19):
magazine.
It was very beautiful where you have themermaid and you talk about the water, and that
was just wonderful.
So what is your journey like?
You know, I know as entrepreneurs, sometimes wehave have to where it's just going great.
And then all of a sudden, it's like, whathappened?
(03:42):
And, you know, did someone pull the plug out ofthe bathtub and all the water Did something
I felt like I
don't know.
You know?
Did we have a rock slide?
What happened?
It's like, all of a sudden, you have to reset.
So when those things come and and I'm going toask you first, have you had to reset in in your
(04:04):
journey?
All the time and every winter for sure.
It's not been an easy ride for me because Idon't think business and the world like, I
(04:25):
often feel like I I I can't do what kind of thebusiness world is doing.
And I've
tried and I've tried.
You know, I've I've tried to learn.
I've tried to do the networking event.
I tried this, and I tried that.
And every time I lose myself, most often, Ilose myself, and I end up going back and
(04:51):
hiding, going back to the water, listening.
What what's happening?
I'm not finding my soul made client and the thepeople I'm here to to contribute from my my
heart.
(05:11):
Like, deep inside of me, I know I'm here to toto to inspire and to guide other who are on
that path, but I didn't really I didn't reallyknow enough about me, until now to really now
(05:34):
see and describe and and help the those peoplethat I'm now really clear on on on being the
one.
Like, before, I kinda knew and invited peopleto paint, but it was not about the painting.
(05:55):
And that was how to reset often, so it's aboutthe remembrance.
The painting is just a practice for me.
Okay.
And I was attracting people who want to haveresults or and and me on the other side, I
didn't wanna sell painting to on the gallery.
(06:19):
So there was a lot of trial and error and goingback to gardening and landscaping and and and,
no, I can't do this anymore.
And then coming back, following the breadcrumbs of my soul, getting back to a painting.
And this this painting of my higher self issomething I offer to someone trying to see and
(06:47):
really like, this big one reset where I I said,no.
Okay.
I'm putting all the things that brings mealiveness and the things that I know and the
all the woo woo stuff.
And I'm going to share with someone and seewhat happened.
And the the result were mind blowing for me andfor her.
(07:12):
And so this was, like, the new new path lastyear.
And then I I it led me to Portugal andexploding gifts and really synchronicity.
Then when I came back to Canada, I had anotherlevel of remembrance, like, clearing ancestral
(07:36):
pattern and the money.
There's so much for me around money andreceiving money and to come from an open heart
unattached and fully be in in my in my gift.
(07:57):
And there was also, you know, the lower thingsand because painting for me was way I heal a
lot of abuse, but there's still some level ofshame.
And as we I think many entrepreneur, we allgoing to go through different way and
(08:20):
especially spiritual entrepreneur who are hereto evolve.
So our soul journey become really clearing theold kind of weeds, you know, old way of
thinking, the conditioning of the social thesocial conditioning around business, like,
(08:45):
what's professional, what is not.
You can't do this.
This has never been done.
And I'm a innovator, and it's finding my way tobe back in my joy and the innovative and being
I have enough strength and courage to to berisking rejection.
(09:10):
And that was the kind of really last months orso of, like, the last I think it's the last
layers, but I don't think we're we we haveprobably never really complete get to to to to
(09:35):
say that we never fear again rejection or wewait we're not.
We're totally detached from, you know, whateverpeople can say or but I feel now that it's just
perfect timing to to speak to speak up and tobe in a place that I see now not as a business,
(10:02):
but as a movement.
And it's never been about me, and that's why II was lost in the business thing.
Like, hey.
This is me, and I'm selling this, and it neverbeen.
Like, I could not do this.
And then sometimes I was feeling bad because Iit's not me.
And I was like, well, maybe something I need toshift, and I need to work, and I need to go.
(10:28):
No.
And now I know.
It's really a movement into living a new way.
It's not the business that it's it's not thebusiness model we see out there in the terms of
profiting on sort of product and bringing topeople.
(10:53):
Yes.
I'm offering experience.
And, I love if someone is really in connectionwith one of my painting and feels moved by it.
I but it's really coming from my soul.
If it's the the world I want to create is aworld where everyone lives from their soul, a
(11:22):
soul led world.
And I am here to help remember the people thatthe pieces, then sometimes we it's just out of
our awareness.
Sometimes it's just deeper under, some sort ofconditioning.
(11:42):
And this this it's it's a journey.
It's an experience.
It's not like I'm going to guarantee result.
It's not like I can promise, oh, you'd be youknow?
And that's the journey of for me of learningfrom all the things that the marketing and the
(12:03):
business and the training.
It's mostly what it was not me.
And now I'm like, okay.
This is a it's more like a movement of thoseold souls who feel like they didn't didn't
belong for a long time because we're leavingsomething new.
(12:27):
And that that is my realization of of the lastseven years of trying to be in business, which
is not And, like, bumping my hand, like, howwhy it's not working and and feeling the shame
and not having client and, you know, all ofthis and, like, okay.
(12:51):
It's it's I'm I'm not from I'm not in thisworld to I'm creating a new way, and and I'm
not the only one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
That's that's really insightful because noteverybody is out selling a product or something
(13:17):
like that.
But those who tend to be more creative do comefrom the heart, come from the soul.
They, they have such value to offer and to helppeople see the value in themselves and to find
out what is holding them back.
Why aren't they able to do what they want todo?
(13:40):
And I see how through your paintings thatyou're giving them a way to release whatever it
is that's blocking them, that's holding them,that's stopping them so they can find out who
they really are and to see that they really cando these things, that they really do have
something important in them, and people do wantto hear that.
(14:04):
It's you know, when when you go on on sites andtheir business sites and they're asking, well,
what's your business?
You know?
Is it is it health, like exercise and diet,things like that?
Is it finances?
Is it, you know, whatever it is?
But you don't see anything in there that'screative or that's helping your soul or helping
(14:28):
you find out who you really are.
Those are not, you know, the top three thingsthat everybody's looking for.
Because those things can actually be easy to doif you've done them, if you know about them, if
you know what's going on.
But trying to, you know, put the square pegs inthe round holes, unless that round hole is big
(14:48):
enough for the square peg, it's not gonna fit.
It can be difficult.
And and I'm not saying you're a square peg.
I'm just saying that you're coming at life froma different point of view from that creative
mind to help people see that there is more tothem than just the surface level, that there's
(15:10):
something deep inside of them that really wantsto be released so they can be fully who they
are.
And I really appreciate that you took the timeto find that out about yourself first.
Instead of saying, oh, you need to go do this.
You said, well, what about me?
I'm going through this.
I'm not happy with it.
Why not?
And so you took the pause.
(15:32):
You know, we talk about there's nothing wrongwith taking a pause.
You need to stop and look at where you're at,where you're going, what's working, what's not
working, and that's what you did.
You took that pause to figure out what's goingon.
With with me, it's you know, I wanted to writebooks, and I was, but there were a lot of
(15:53):
pieces that I was missing.
So I needed to learn those pieces.
Well, while I'm learning that, then you getthis coming in, and you have this coming in.
And now you've got 50 other things coming in,and these are all great things.
And they yeah.
Everybody says they can help you get to whereyou're going.
But by the time you're done, your brain is justmush.
You know?
(16:14):
That's it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's just so much coming in.
From from our own rhythm, from our ownstillness.
Yes.
And that's a place where we can listen to thewhisper of our our soul.
Yeah.
(16:34):
Yeah.
Painting can be a way to to release, but italso can be a way to call in our vision.
So painting has many benefit, and it can bedone in different way.
So it can be, like, an access to thesubconscious and and the connection with the
(16:58):
language of our soul, the symbols.
And we start to be in conversation with oursoul.
And we because we're in the present moment,we're we're we're bypassing this the mind
that's trying to figure things out, and youshould do this and this.
And after this, you do this.
This is the beauty of the the creative, theconnection to our soul, and it can also be the
(17:27):
the way we choose to to live.
So this I yourself painting was for me toreally okay.
The highest vision, what I see myself doing andand calling calling that purse that being into
my body.
(17:48):
So it's this in this way, we can go kind ofback in the past and go into the future.
That's why I like to say that they're a portalthey're a portal to or to what we want to
create.
So if we can see, well, this new painting inprogress is is like my soulmate relationship.
(18:13):
And in in in creating this, I'm sort ofnurturing the vision and painting how I want to
feel, how I want to be received, And inbringing those feeling and and and seeing this,
it's like I am I am already seeing this newreality.
(18:38):
And the more and more I attract the the the thepainting vision.
So, yes, it well, it's not for people, like,you want to do results or a nice, beautiful
thing.
It can be.
It can become it.
But and you the the the people I I do feel itis for, they have this this desire inside of
(19:10):
them to live their soul life, and they they'redone with trying to pretend.
And and I think right now, there's a bigcalling for the souls that are here to create
(19:32):
and build new new economy, new business, newnew governance.
And it's it start by being really connected toour soul and and listening.
We can't like, there's some famous person whosaid we can't create something new from the
(19:54):
same place we create what we're doing.
I think it's Einstein when he said that.
And so painting helps that.
Painting helps to be really in the moment andand access the the language of our soul.
(20:15):
We we we become in tune with and listening andopening up to, okay, what what am I here to to
really do and attract diff like, out ofnowhere.
Hey.
Someone's thinking of you.
(20:36):
That's that's interesting.
And I I was just thinking, you know, noteverybody is artistic.
Not everybody has paints and stuff at home.
So someone listening to this may think, well,this isn't gonna help me.
I don't even have have color cranes at home.
So what would be something that they want to gofigure out what's going on?
(21:02):
What's this block they have?
Or, you know, I just don't feel like myself.
I wanna figure out what's happening.
What if they don't have any tools?
What do you do with that?
Well, I would say they can like, anything thatlights them up.
(21:22):
So for me, it was painting.
But for someone, it may not be.
First, I wanna make sure that I'm going to blowup this belief that everyone is creative.
It's the conditioning and the social thingsthat tells you you're not creative because
(21:44):
we're all creative.
So I think you know you know that.
And so if if it attract, then we can just takethree or four colors and just start to play and
be curious with that.
But if you're not kind of attracted topainting, then the nature is the other way to
(22:08):
go.
And just sitting by water, list looking at atree, looking at the sky, and often, we can
even ask a tree to witness our soul and thefeeling of being seen at the soul level to
(22:30):
start to connect with the soul instead of themind who's thinking that it is the reality.
That for me, nature and water are often a wayto to clear to clear energy, to feel our own
(22:52):
presence and plants, and be surprised that forme as a landscape architect and then the way I
heal myself with plants is that every time Ilooked around on the property of someone, the
plants there, they are your ally.
(23:13):
They're sole remembrance ally.
If if someone has a, past heartbreak, theycannot kind of move past, then I'm sure you're
gonna find around your house or somewhere onyour walk a plan that speaks to you.
(23:36):
And you get to communicate in the energy, nottrying with the mind, seeing, like, what she's
doing and how you can, you know, take confusionand all that.
Just feeling and being with the energy ofplants around and being curious again.
It's really in the curiosity and the open ofour heart and see, okay.
(24:01):
From this open connection to her heart, how amI feeling around this plant?
And what can she tell me about me, about mypain, about my my past heartbreak?
Or I have many, many plants alive that cansupport that I felt that so supported every
(24:30):
time I needed.
I can call them or just being curious andnotice.
Okay.
It's gonna come like, quick car, like a, oh,wow.
Like, you're gonna just notice and see, oh,maybe she has something for me.
(24:50):
And you're deepening this connection withnature for me.
This is all this is this is their original,inspiration for me is And then this love for
nature, this is what I paint in the winterbecause I need the green and I need the plants.
(25:12):
And so I plant I paint in the winter, and itgot me to remember more more of me in in
different way, but and and expressing.
But the to me, the original the most get to thesource is nature.
(25:37):
And this is kind of this is why I kinda changedmy name instead of painting dreams into
reality.
I'm calling remembering with nature becauseit's really where where we can start our our
connection to nature and help us remember whowe are past the past our our thinking, past our
(26:05):
thought that we haven't achieved or we havethis sort of problem in relationship or we
haven't succeed this.
How come it's been ten years if we want tocreate this?
We haven't, or we are fit like, all of thosekind of story, the mind can tell us.
(26:26):
Nature will bypass all of this, and we'll seeso if you ask a tree today, just get on a walk,
sit on the near a tree, and ask him to see you.
As you meditate, just feel feel the expansionand and just if you if we start that every day
(26:51):
doing a walk and seeing around and beingpresent, it whatever kind of field, the
stuckness or the energy that is kind of aroundus will finally dissipate because we're we're
purifying.
We're we're we're intentionally creating thisconnection with our soul and with with the
(27:20):
greater life force around us.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was just thinking about, you know, when I wasyoung, parents have we've had too much energy.
If we were upset, whatever it was, they tellus, go outside.
Go for a walk.
Just go outside.
And there's so much data now that proves thatgoing outside, being in nature, if it's raining
(27:45):
out and you're just on your porch, you know,just being out there helps to really release
things.
You know, now a lot of kids told, oh, go toyour room.
Well, you go to your room and you're stillblocked in.
You know?
Maybe open your window and look outside.
You know?
Don't go outside.
You still need to be obedient.
But but yeah.
(28:06):
Just even even just sitting outside, what adifference it makes.
You know?
Clear our thoughts.
If we're stuck on something, we don't knowwhat's happening, we go for a walk, walk around
the block, you know, just go for a little walk,walk around the yard.
And and it just seems to really help releaseyour getting, you know, the blood flowing in
(28:29):
your body, and you're just releasing things.
And if you're just standing there Yeah.
When you're absorbing so much energy out of thecomputer and out of our, like, mind, like, that
is so important what you say.
Just taking break and going out.
(28:50):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because it's you know, it just seems to do alot of good, and I'm I'm surprised at how much,
how many I'll put it this way.
How many benefits we gain in ourselves just bygoing out for a walk, just by stepping outside
(29:12):
away from the office, away from whatever you'redoing.
And maybe you're working outside all the time,and and you need to go in and just sit down for
a minute.
You know that too.
But, yeah, it's it's it's so true that justbeing in nature itself just helps equip you to
(29:36):
keep going on to what you need to do.
So
Oh, it it helps it helps remembering that weare one with nature.
This I I really see for me, the world I see arechildren who are playing in in nature.
(29:56):
They don't have to go in their room, not atall, to it's not something we need to be
obedient.
We need to be letting them being creative,authentic.
That's the way we were conditioned out of ourcreative our creative self, out of our natural
(30:17):
authentic self is we we were you know, yougotta do this.
You gotta rules, and you can't do this.
You can't do that.
You're not creative.
You're not an artist.
You're not.
Yes.
You are.
Yes.
They are.
They have.
All they're been limitless, and nature is iswho we are.
(30:39):
We have always been connected.
Like, if we look at just hundred years ago, wewere outside.
We are nature outdoor being.
We're not meant for sitting on a com atcomputer for hours and hours.
So I think it's not just good for your energyand your heart, but it's it's because you start
(31:06):
to live in connection with life.
There you go.
I like that.
Yeah.
Living in connection with life.
And, yeah, too many people, we stay home.
It's like, oh, we have a day off.
What am I gonna do?
I'm just gonna stay home.
Play video games, you know, read a book, butI'm just gonna stay home.
(31:28):
And too many times we stay home, and sometimeswe need to.
That's good.
But a lot of times we need to get out of ourhome and go visit.
I mean, people used to go to each other's homefor dinner, visit each other all the time, you
know, go and do things together.
(31:48):
You know, how many times do you say let's go tothe park when you've got kids just to let them
be outside and run around and release all ofthat pent up energy from being inside in
smaller places?
Yeah.
So much truth to that.
It
this this sort of life where we were connectedto nature and and each other.
(32:12):
So this is the two things to me that I realizedafter, like, trying the the online business and
and kinda reaching out but not being with otherhuman, I really burnt out because the two
(32:32):
things that I miss in the equation is natureand people and real people.
So if yes.
I I I I'm creating this online business, andit's it's and that that is, for me, creating a
(32:56):
totally new way of doing business because I doit now outside.
After a call, I'm gonna go register an audiofor this heaven of reverence that I'm inviting
people into.
And those are the new ideas that came frombeing outside.
(33:17):
It wouldn't come sitting at my computer.
No.
No.
So I'm like yeah.
It's it's and this importance of connectingwith other who like, in in person.
And this is why I'm, like, really, reallyexcited about creating this amazing pilgrimage
(33:43):
in Madera Island where we I'm gonna invitewomen, old souls to remember, but really in the
high vibration and feeling the energy of natureand feeling each other.
And and that just expand our our our aliveness.
(34:03):
And to me, that that is also a big part ofattracting, like, the the the soul of the lying
client is is being is being alive.
And just a a month ago, I could have neverthought that I would speak and being alive like
that.
(34:24):
Isn't that something?
Well, I'm so glad you able to to connect yourlight and water together.
How do people get ahold of you?
Well, right now, you can reach me on Instagramremembering with nature, and they can I am
(34:47):
completing this heaven of reverence?
It's gonna be a free gift.
And from there, I have this full moon gatheringcoming for old soul to get the practice
remember and move and dance and and connectwith each other.
And that's just to connect with my emailaddress, simply just say hi to
(35:13):

Excellent.
Excellent.
Thank you, Natalie, so much for today, and I'mso glad that that you were able to get past
this.
I know it can be really hard when all this justkinda, like, seems to fall apart.
(35:38):
And and maybe sometimes it needs to fall apartso we can figure out what's really working,
what's really good, what's what are we reallygoing after?
Did we just get so much?
Kinda like the straw that broke the camel'sback.
Did we just overload ourselves with too much?
And now we need to see, okay.
What does work?
(35:59):
And, I thank you for your insight.
Yes.
Thank you.
Thank you for having me.
