I recently sat down with my dear friend, Genea Barnes, in an Instagram Live. It was the most authentic conversation I’ve ever experienced on camera.
Genea is creator of Be the Wolf, a business that explores what it means to stop performing for approval and start showing up as your full 100% REAL self. She focuses on conversations and healing around self-trust, relationships, worthiness, business, boundaries, money, reclaiming your voice, and learning to feel safe in your own skin. WOW!
We talked about my story - about growing up inside a religious cult and what it took to finally leave. About the years I spent denying my voice, doubting my intuition, and letting others dictate who I was allowed to be.
For most of my life, my subconscious thought patterns of playing small and staying silent kept me safe. But silence has a cost! Eventually, the ache of not living your truth grows louder than the fear of what happens when you do.
That’s when everything began to shift.
On the other side of denial and self-doubt, I found light, joy, and EASE.
And maybe most important, I found me - the woman who moves through life freely, creates boldly, and no longer waits for anybody’s approval to exist as the true me.
This conversation is for you if you’ve ever felt trapped by expectations, fear, or the old stories that say you must earn your freedom.
It’s for you if you’re ready to live on your own terms - doing what you want, when you want, and in the way you want.

And because this story is rooted in abundance, not scarcity…and expansion, not contraction…I’ll leave you with this:
✨ Mantra for Abundance in All Things
Written by Debby
As I live authentically and circulate what flows through me,
I open myself to the Infinite Source of all creation.
I trust that energy, love, and provision move in perfect rhythm -
through me, to me, and all around me.
Life loves to be good to me!
I am a conduit for expanding energy.
I have:
New paths and aligned work,
Raises and recognition,
Creative flow and inspired opportunities,
Kindness returned a hundredfold,
Favorable outcomes, inherited blessings,
Interest, income, and joyful surprises,
Checks in the mail, gifts appearing,
Money found, bills released, debts dissolved,
Blessing upon blessing, expansion upon expansion.
I am grateful for Spirit and the abundance of creative Flow that flows readily through me.
All of my needs are met and overflow,
and I have more than enough to create more beauty,
to share more freely,
and to lift the collective frequency of all beings.
And so it is.
If my mantra speaks to you, you can download a PDF copy of it free!
Print it out and put it where you can see it daily! Speak it aloud this week. Hang it in your bathroom and speak it to yourself in the mirror while you get ready in the morning.
Let it anchor you in truth, freedom, and flow.
When we stop asking permission to be who we already are, the Universe answers in turn. The chasing and forcing stops, and the ease and Flow naturally appears.
With love and flow,
Debby
🌸 Things Lighting Me Up This Week:
OMG the Tara mantra! This is SO beautiful! Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha (Sanskrit). This mantra is particularly used for those who seek enlightenment, abundance, help, strength, and healing, and for the release of negativity, stress, and fears. This version is with ocean sounds and a second vocal. The harmonies are so beautiful!
