Welcome to another Amplify Project blog, this month we are interviewing up & coming Author Natalie Windlefell. 
We know you didn't stop by to hear from us so shall we dive right in?

US: So tell us Natalie, what do you do?

Natalie: I'm a brand new author with a book coming out on 2/11 with The Unbound Press - It's called "Rude Awakening: A Mixtape. It's a collection of stories about my own spiritual awakening to the tune of the songs that inspired me/sparked lessons along the way. On my instagram page, I share inspiration and the occasional meme to help others through this crazy transition this planet is going through (whether they're conscious of it or not!) I also just started a project called "Be Here Awake" - a platform where people on the awakening path can share/express themselves among like-minded and curious others. 

US: We love that! Now here is the juicy one...why do I do it?

Natalie: I know how lonely awakening can be, so I am passionate about helping people feel like they are heard and validated and know that what they're going through is amazing. I had such a hard time when I was first waking up because I didn't feel like I fit into any of the cookie cutter new age boxes. As I fumble through finding my voice and embracing my own authenticity, I want others to know they're safe to do so, too.

US: We totally feel you on the awakening, we've all been there....so what do you love about your work?

Natalie: Writing my book was such an amazing healing process for me and I can't wait to share it with the rest of the world. I am so lit up by helping those on the awakening path and serving as a breath of fresh air in a sea of confusion. I am inspired by people all of the time and am in awe of their own journeys. I think meeting all of the amazing people along my own journey is what fuels me to keep creating and connecting.

US: Most importanty  how can our readers find you?
I hang out mainly on IG - @nataliewindlefell - I am working on a website and am planning to have it ready to go prior to my book launch!

US:  Natalie it has been a pleasure to connect with you experience just a couple of your mixtape tracks. We are super excited to witness your journey as an author unfold. Infact you have just inspired us to start a mixtape of our own!

Hey Savannah, it is so wonderful to connect with you.. So tell us what do you do?

I’ve been called a world-renowned bodyworker, Habit Strategist, and Intuition Leadership Coach, and I’ve been doing all these wonderful things for nearly twenty-five years. My purpose in this world is to help you connect to and develop your Intuition for Leadership and Wellbeing. Since 2017, I have been running a program called Ladies Lifting Ladies, a focus on feminine collaboration, pleasure and flair in business, using your cycle and being more productive than you could possibly imagine. I’m currently creating a program called Your Intuitive Life, which is about learning to listen to yourself and live at your own pace in order to embody your fullest potential; it will be launching in Spring 2021. I’m also the creator of Roll Me Open, a self-referencing tool which allows you to relax, open, and check in with your spine daily.

Love that! So why do you do what you do?

Well, I really wanted to be a singer, but I hate singing words – I’d rather just make noises, but Enya had beat me to it. So I went into the next best thing, which was intuition and healing. When I was young, I would walk into a room and be able to feel everyone’s emotions; no matter what people would say to me, their emotions, rather than their words, would strike me as the loudest thing in the room. It would be some years before I realised I was an empath. Being an empath at first felt like a curse, and I sought out all sorts of ways to deal with it. I started meditating at the age of seven, and I started doing daily Reiki at the age of seventeen. I became fascinated by how food effected my sensitivity and how opening my body through yoga and exercise helped. As an empath, I realised that people sometimes struggled to identify what they were feeling, and I was able to help them uncover and connect to their own emotions and then release the correlating blockages in their bodies. I also wanted to help others like me and to support those who wanted to develop their empathy and intuition to know themselves better. 

I believe the future is empathic – where our leaders as empaths will create win-win-win situations for everyone involved. 

Our third and final question is...What do you love about your work?

I love how pleasurable, light and empowering this work is for my clients and for myself, helping people realise there is no need to push themselves, that they are enough, and all they need to do is slow down and know themselves. 
​
I love to guide people back to their inner-tution, the part of them that shows and tells them what they need. I do this through my coaching, my online programs –  Your Intuitive Life and Ladies Lifting Ladies – as well as the Roll Me Open. I'm truly living the dream – I make my living helping others live their best lives and get to be my authentic, goofy self.
