Hello everyone and welcome. This is Jennifer Urezzio, founder and spiritual instructor for Soul Language, and this is SuperPowers of the Soul. I’m with Mariel Alvarado. The topic today is we’re creating a self-developed plan. Welcome Mariel, I’m so excited you’re here.

Thank you for inviting me, Jennifer. I’m so excited to be here. Thank you.

I love these conversations and I love the conversations with A, people I like, and B, with people who I already know were on the same spiritual platform. So I always like to start these conversations with this question. So what do you consider the superpower of your soul for yourself? Then what do you consider the superpower of your soul for others? 

The superpower of my soul is being able to inspire someone into getting into action within their own unique brilliance.

The superpower of my soul. So what do I consider the superpower of my soul? I think the superpower of my soul is being able to inspire someone into getting into action within their own unique brilliance. So I feel like I’m really good at, not just good at it, but I think that’s really my soul’s calling, is I can sit down with someone and help them tap into what’s unique about their soul and help them build a business. Because in my opinion, the highest spiritual calling an individual can have is being an entrepreneur. So I think that I’m really good at inspiring action and inspiring them to actually get into action with who they are. Get in alignment with who they are and action it with the things that they have to do in order to create profit and really live in their purpose. I don’t know if that answered it.

What do you consider the superpower of your soul for yourself?

The superpower of my soul for myself. Oh, so, okay. So that was in terms of other people. So you’re saying something just for me?

Yes, just for you.

My superpower is faith. Faith and belief. I’ve had that from childhood, so it’s just part of me. It’s just a deep knowing that I’ve always had that I have a direct link with the divine. For a long time I couldn’t say that out loud because it sounds so, I don’t know, to my ego mind it sounds like, “Well who the heck do you think you are to have a direct link to the divine?” But the truth is I’ve had it forever. So I think that’s my soul calling. Does that make sense?

Perfect.

Okay.

So we often talk about sacred purpose and sacred mission and I think that the secret purpose is all about how you do it. But I believe that your sacred purpose is what you’re profoundly here to experience and then offer that experience to others. What do you consider your sacred purpose? 

My sacred purpose. I guess I answered that more in the first question you answered. So my sacred purpose is working with others to get them in touch with their creative soul and help them build a lifestyle that honors and profits from that. I can do it all day long. Whenever I am working with someone, it actually makes me feel guilty about how much I enjoy it. Whenever I work with someone and I get them in touch with their highest creative soul self and help them build a business around that, I don’t know if I will get the same enjoyment out of anything else more than that.

I think that’s really important. I think so often people think about their sacred purpose, the doing part of their sacred purpose, as something that should be hard, that they shouldn’t have fun at. But it’s what I call it, the bus ticket. That gets you where you want to go, that the divine is provided to you, for you, and for others, to be of service, both giving and receiving. So I love that. My last question before our break here is, our soul usually shares a common theme with us. What has been a common theme that your soul has shared with you?

we all have the ability to connect and only when we are truly, truly connected to every aspect of ourselves, the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable, can we really find our true power in everything

We all have the ability to connect and only when we are truly, truly connected to every aspect of ourselves, the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable, can we really find our true power in everything.

Common theme that my soul has shared with me. I think one of the common themes that I’ve always had is that we all have the ability to connect and only when we are truly, truly connected to every aspect of ourselves, the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable, can we really find our true power in everything. So everything that I’ve gone through in my business on my own and what I see in my clients is when you can marry all the parts of yourselves and honor yourself and honor those parts, those different parts that we do have, that’s when not only your life comes together, but your creative projects, you’re being able to show up for others to help them to even be seen, everything comes together when you start honoring all those different parts of yourself instead of judging and doing that. So what I just said, I can actually apply that in marketing. I can apply that in copywriting, I can apply that to coaching and so many different aspects. So that’s why I think it’s a big theme.

Yeah. I think that when we feel separate, any separation, we are going to create suffering, whether it is big or small. I think what you’re saying is when you really accept that you’re whole and complete, and then your life reflects that. There are different degrees about it. You might not feel whole and complete every day, but when you accept that you’re whole and complete, that really allows you to bring that wholeness and completeness in everything you do. So before we break here, what is a way people can get in touch with you? How can they learn more about you and experience your goodness?

Yeah. Well, you can always go to my website and my website is Soul-idify.com. Also connect with me on Facebook or Instagram. I am happy to accept friends into my Facebook personal profile, and on Instagram I am iam_marielalvarado. So those are probably the best ways.

Beautiful. Okay, everyone, stay tuned. We’ll be back in a moment.
