Waking Up Wealthy with Isha Vela

Isha talks to her mentor in business, Tay Nocktonick, founder of Breadwinner Energy®, a movement dedicated to helping women build economic power, create ownership & have more CHOICE in how they live their lives.

As a business mentor, thought leader & advocate for women's wealth, Tay helps experienced femmepreneurs turn their stories, skills and expertise into recognizable intellectual property, scalable businesses and lasting impact.

Tay's work is rooted in her Indigenous values of reciprocity, sovereignty and restoration, so making money is just the beginning.

Through the power of relationships she's helped so many women create the freedom, resources and capacity to be financially uncontrollable.

In this episode she provides the framework that radically changed how Isha builds her business and that helped grow their online audience from 2,000 for 6 years to 60,000+ in 3 months (and counting).

Tay shares her recent experience of the importance of building a business that functions beyond her.

Magdalene Bandorai and Isha Vela are releasing the full lore origin story. Three months ago, they didn't know each other. Today they're co-founding a global matriarchal community together. For the opening of Mycelium, their global matriarchal community, they recorded an unfiltered account of how they found each other and why they decided to say "Fuck it, yes" and trust. Because underneath all of it, TRUST is the thread that holds the whole thing together. Trusting yourself when something feels right before you can explain why. Trusting the process of building trust with someone new. Trusting the universe when it puts the exact right person in your path at the exact right moment. For the record, Magdalene is a feral, unhinged Capricorn stellium mama bear tending matriarchy. She has a background in corporate accounting and network marketing, where she built a multiple six-figure business before losing it all to betrayal, burnout, and long Covid. Creator of Matriarchal Communities Network on Facebook, Magdalene now uses her skills to create structures and systems that center life, mothers, and children. This episode is fun, sweet, and real, the most honest BTS account of what it actually takes to build something matriarchal.

In this conversation with Angela Merzib, you'll learn how Private Membership Associations (PMAs) allow your business to exist in its own jurisdictional bubble where you can create your own rules about how you operate.

Angela Merzib is the founder of Be Bold Branding and Sacred, where she teaches brilliant business owners to build businesses on their own terms, in the private domain.

There are very specific steps you have to follow in order for your PMA to not cross into the public domain, where most businesses become subject to the registration and regulatory/tax framework of the state you're formed in.

In 42 minutes, you'll have tools to create a legal business structure that's as sovereign as you are.

When everyone slaps "matriarchy" on a co-housing community, a leadership coaching course, and a business model without having the ACTUAL infrastructure, it dilutes both the meaning and the movement.

Matriarchy is not vibes or an aesthetic.

It's a blueprint for a more humane and connected way of living.

On today's episode, we're talking about what matriarchy actually is and isn't.

I outline the four must-have pillars of matriarchal infrastructure, in other words, what's required legally and somatically for matriarchy to become real and established for the long game:

Ownership

Governance

Wealth Systems

Embodiment

In approximately 30 minutes, you'll know what gaps you need to close in your co-housing ownership structure, your leadership structures, in how you move money through your business, and in how you share power.

A matriarchal economy requires us to see ourselves in that bigger web of relationship, of which trust is the foundation, simultaneously releasing our patterns of transactional exchange.

In this episode, you'll learn:

-the differences between transaction, reciprocity and extraction;

-why you default to transactional exchanges vs trusting the greater web of relationship;

-the 5 relational archetypes and how they relate to how we give and receive in relationships;

-how to build the trust to make reciprocity feel safer.

Reciprocity is the wealth-building foundation of the modern economic matriarchy.

And the question of how to withdraw from the machine, strategically, structurally, collectively, is one of the most practically urgent questions available right now, perfect for today's eclipse.

In today's episode, I show you exactly how to:

-withdraw your life force from the machine,

-make the machine lose its leverage (based on its four favorite weapons)

-build the alternative infrastructure based on the four forms of capital.

In just under 30 minutes, you'll receive the map to withdraw from the narcissistic machine in the very same way you withdraw supply from a narcissistic partner.

It's the collective, feral GTFO plan.

This is the first time I tell the full story of my experience with financial abuse.

Because 1 in 6 women experience it, and most think it'll NEVER happen to them.

Because I, a psychologist, was one of the 3 in 5 women who don't see it until AFTER they leave the relationship.

Because I've sat down with dozens of women who are experiencing the same things I did and they're NOT calling it financial abuse.

They're calling it:

"The economy's bad and he hasn't been able to find work."

"He's depressed and has a learning disorder that's made it hard for him to keep a job."

"We haven't been able to get out of debt despite me making good money."

"We constantly fight about money."

"He refuses to sit down with anyone other than his advisor."

Meanwhile, women are burning out under carrying the load of what they can't name as abuse because it doesn't fit the textbook definition.

In this episode, I share:

-the process of moving from "what am I doing wrong" to "there's definitely something wrong here" that enabled me to leave;

-my recommended GTFO plan;

-other women's stories of financial abuse that they graciously offered over IG (and gave consent to share for this episode).

In 30 minutes, you'll recognize the subtle signs of financial control in your relationship dynamics, inoculate yourself against financial abuse, and maybe even help someone who's in that sitch right now.

I used to drool at the thought of becoming a professional philanthropist.

I pictured myself donating my time, wads of money, energy funding women's businesses and ecological projects all around the world.

That image in my head felt like the peak experience, like if I could achieve that it would mean I'd arrived.

But when I started studying matriarchal economics and specifically wealth distribution models, I had to rethink some things.

Because philanthropy is the dominant model of redistribution inside the current economy and it is structurally designed to leave the power differential intact.

In this podcast episode I dive into the four categories of redistribution that get collapsed under philanthropy, and each one's role in moving us from the control of the triangle (where power is concentrated at the top) to circle (where power is distributed through relationships).

In just under 30 minutes, you'll understand how to balance your redistribution portfolio along with 4 steps to putting it in action in ways that distribute power.

The energy that drives the matriarchal economy is GENEROSITY.

Not performative, one-off donation kind of generosity that happens once a blue moon when the spirit moves you.

I'm talking about the structural, consistent, normalized assumptive generosity of a woman who moves money through community.

And internalized scarcity is what stops generosity cold.

It doesn't matter how aligned your values are.

It doesn't matter how much you believe in the matriarchal economy.

If your internal ecosystem is running a scarcity program underneath all of that belief, you won't circulate consistently.

You will hoard in ways that feel like a responsible choice.

You will give sporadically, not necessarily from guilt but maybe sometimes, and then contract.

You will keep waiting for when you have more to begin giving consistently.

Dissolving internalized scarcity is the real work at the foundation of a matriarchal economy.

And in this episode, I share the 4 practices that've helped me break the cycle of scarcity in my lineage.

Before there was a framework, these practices planted the seeds of everything I now teach about ecological wealth.

What would you do if you lost a parent and suddenly inherited a massive amount of money?

What feelings might it bring up for you?

Who do you talk about it with?

OR: what if you were a recipient of the Great Wealth Transfer, where $34 trillion in investable assets are moving into women's hands by the end of this decade?

Even though many people say they would love to be in that position, it does come with its unique challenges.

Marina Pearson knows exactly what those challenges are.

Having walked the path of inheriting wealth herself over the past 15 years and having worked with women from all over the world, she deeply understands the often-unspoken emotional and identity challenges that can accompany it.

And this is something the wealth industry completely misses.

Marina is the founder of Unshackled Wealth™, an investor, author, speaker, guide, and host of the She Who Inherits podcast.

Today, she helps female inheritors move from survival, uncertainty, into sovereignty, self-trust, and aligned wealth stewardship, so they can lead their wealth, and their lives with confidence and purpose.

Once you listen to this conversation, you will leave with a deeper appreciation of how powerful inherited scarcity can be, and the specific factors required to shift into stewardship.

One thing that's become increasingly clear to me over the last several weeks is that some aspects of creating a matriarchal economy are a CHOICE.

And that by making these choices on the daily we can create the matriarchal economy.

I know that sounds too simple, but it's not.

Look, I have no doubt that exiting the matrix will absolutely involve a fight in some ways.

We will have to fight to protect nature, to protect women and children from harm and exploitation.

This is where having money and other resources will matter the most.

But right now I just want to focus on the parts that are a CHOICE.

Focusing on what you can control.

In this episode, I outline the 6 principles of matriarchal financial ecology with examples of how you can move money in ways that make the patriarchy OBSOLETE.

I sat down with Wren Farris (Season 6, Episode 2) to talk about money mistakes.

Money mistakes can mean LOTS of things, like not separating your personal and business expenses, underpricing your services, not setting aside money for taxes.

I thought that was the conversation we're having, but something completely unexpected came up, and you can detect the exact moment it occurred.

When we actually dropped in and started talking, we landed on a HUGE money leak for women, especially.

This cost of this mistake is so much more than money, so do your heart a favor and tune in.

You cannot build the matriarchy out THERE if the patriarchy is still running the operating system in HERE.

That's what this episode is about.

Yesterday I recorded something I've been working with for a long time: the six shadows of patriarchal programming that keep you loyal to a system designed to extract from you and hold you in a vibration of fear.

In your relationship with money, with food, with your body, with rest, with desire, with your own worthiness.

I call them the LIVIDS:

Lack. Isolation. Victimhood. Impostor. Doubt. Shame.

You know them. They live in your body, not just your mind. They got passed down through your lineage, reinforced by culture, how you were parented, and dressed up as personal flaws you've been trying to resolve in therapy for years.

Stop trying to fix programming and learn the practices that make it obsolete.

In this episode I walk you through each of the LIVIDS, how they show up in your relationship with money and the 6 matriarchal power hacks that rewire them.

This is where mindset meets the brass tax of trauma integration.

Because a new world requires a new body, one that can actually hold what we're trying to build.

If you want to be ungovernable and uncontrollable, this episode is for you.

There are specific emotions and sensations that arise when the systems that've been organizing your reality reveal themselves and come undone.

You've probably experienced this before in your shadow work process.

You feel this not because your life is over, but because you're floating in the space between what was and what hasn't formed yet.

That void is what this episode is about.

We're getting into why systems collapse is an initiation, not a crisis.

Why our bodies cling to anti-life templates even when we know they're awful.

Why losing meaning is actually a sign you're growing.

And most importantly: what to practice in the liminal space that can actually change the trajectory of the timeline.

The answer isn't a new template.

It's something more primal and precious.

This one is personal.

It's Aries season, it's giving COVID breakdown and Twilight Zone madness, and it's what I'm observing in real time, in my worldschooling community, online, and in the collective.

The split in awareness is becoming impossible to ignore.

And I want to give you some orientation as it widens.

New episode is live.

Somebody decided that network marketing was a scam.

And that somebody had a lot to lose if women started building wealth outside of systems they controlled.

I've been in this business model for 3+ years, and what I know from the inside is that network marketing, held in matriarchal hands, is one of the most powerful wealth-building structures available to women right now.

Low barrier to entry.

Scalable.

Inheritable.

Built on reciprocity, mentorship and collective growth.

In this episode I define the model and dismantle every objection one by one and show you EXACTLY what it looks like when women run a business like a coven instead of a corporation.

I also talk about what I think the REAL pyramid scheme is (I promise you it's not this) and break down the material and energetic costs of

a) getting more education; and

b) going the solopreneur route.

If you're building alone or are exhausted by the options you've been given, this episode is for you.

As patriarchal systems of power crumble, how do we build indigenous matriarchal ones to replace them?

How do we operate and thrive as a community without banks?

And how do we do this in a way that redistributes wealth and acknowledges the many ways Black and brown folks have been systematically locked out of building wealth?

This is just SOME of what we get into on this episode of the podcast, where we talk about alternative economies, specifically community funding structures.

This practice, formally known as a rotating savings and credit association (ROSCA), has over 200 different names that vary from country to country.

I first heard about ROSCA's (or susu in Nigeria) about 8 years ago from a dear acquaintance in my New Haven social justice community, and I invited today's guest to come on to the podcast and share all the details of how to run them with you.

Farron Harvey is a facilitator of wealth redistribution systems and a social justice movement builder (doing this for 18 years or since they were a teenager!) for organizations and individuals looking to grow in integrity with their mission and values.

What I thought was going to be a straightforward episode on how to run and facilitate a susu ended up being a mind-blowing conversation around wealth distribution and equity.

I promise your wealth consciousness will increase by at least 10 points after 50 minutes of listening (and so will your hope in the future).

The Epstein files are out, and already, the discourse is shifting:

Not toward accountability, but toward RESIGNATION.

"It's a psyop."

"They're testing us."

"Nothing will happen anyway."

That framing, however sophisticated it sounds, is a form of collapse.

And right now, children can't afford for us to intellectualize our way out of feeling.

Because the moment we trade rage for a clever theory about why rage is useless, we've done exactly what systems of power require us to do.

We have managed ourselves on THEIR behalf.

In this 45-minute episode, I break down step-by-step how we lose the internal, essential part of ourselves that sees CLEARLY what is happening:

The Witness -- and how keeping it intact is an act of resistance.

I also dive into

-The 4 distinct ways the witness collapses;

-How it's connected to learned helplessness; and

-How to turn the witness back on (whether you're seasoned in somatics or just starting out).

Finally, I share a personal story of waking up a formerly collapsed witness in this last new moon eclipse and why rage is required to reclaim the matriarchy.

Have you noticed that when anyone talks about marketing, your brain immediately goes to social media?

And does the thought of that totally kill the vibe?

What if you could build a brand that made social media completely optional?

Because with social media becoming increasingly surveilled and algorithmically manipulated, many people are looking for decentralized alternatives to share their souls' work.

The good news is, regardless of how you market, 88% of ALL business revenue still comes through word of mouth.

And that's what this episode is all about.

I invited Wren Farris, founder and CEO of a 7-figure, top-of-class saltwater bathhouse called Soak on the Sound. She also works as a consultant for women to turn what she calls 'The Thing You Can't Not Do" Into aligned businesses of their own.

Wren, like myself, believes that more money in the hands of matriarchs builds healthier and wealthier communities.

In this episode, we talk about

-how visibility is not limited to online presence

-time spent in the business vs. on your business

-basic business principles that are timeless

Wren even puts me in the hot seat with my own in-person business ideas that I'm playing with right now, which I will be implementing in the next 6 months!

During my time in the U.S., while fascism was intensifying, I was tuning into what conversations we need to have to go where we need to go.

And the word that kept coming up was SOVEREIGNTY.

I broke it down into 5 categories:

Economic and Financial

Personal and Individual

Energetic and Spiritual

Digital and Data

Communal and Collective

And in the episode, I go into each to provide clarity of the overarching themes you'll be addressing both personally and professionally in the Year of the Fire Horse and beyond.

I also provide a 4-level framework for how to distribute wealth (the Mycelial Map).

These nerdy musings will help you clarify your soul's work and prepare an energetic foundation for the Fire Horse.
