Living in Alignment with Amy Starr Allen

Happy New Year…

I hope your year is off to a great start. I love the energy of a new year, the feeling of a fresh start, a blank canvas.

As I’ve been setting my intentions for the new year, I’ve also been having to make some big decisions in my life.

One of my secret weapons when it comes to decision making is automatic writing.

I’m a huge believer in trusting your gut and listening to your

I’m about to embark on another plant medicine adventure.

In about a week and half, I am going to be having my very first experience with Bufu- otherwise known as 5-meO-DMT or the God Molecule.

I’m super excited.

If you’ve been following me for a while, you may know that the plant medicine Ayahuasca has played a huge role in my healing journey.

I just sat with Ayahuasca for the seventh time

It’s a new year… so I wanted to start it out by connecting with you here since it’s been a while.

I’ve basically been traveling since the beginning of November… phew. It’s been a whirlwind and so much has happened.

So, in the episode I will give you a recap to get you up to speed with what has transpired over the last few months.

I’ll also provide an exciting update about my new book that’s comin

In this episode, I am joined by Paul Hutchings.

It’s a bit a different type of interview today because he was interviewing me.

We have our annual Freedom Fest event coming up next week and I will be speaking at that event, so he asked if he could interview me so that people could get to know me better.

In this interview, we also took questions from the live attendees so you will have the opportun

I have a new podcast episode for you!

It’s a new year… and I love this time of year because it always feels like a blank slate.

It’s a chance to start again, to look back over the last year and see what worked and what I wish I would have done differently, or what I regret not doing that I may want to do this year. 

There are a few questions that I like to ask… either at the end of the year or the b

Last month, I experienced my very first Ayahuasca (plant medicine) ceremony in Colorado.

In this episode, I did my best to unpack the entire experience for you.

I know for me, leading up to this experience, I did a ton of research and binged on other people’s content about their experiences to learn as much as I could about what to expect… so I wanted to share this in as much detail with you as I could in case you are doing the same (or in case you are just curious about Ayah...

I am on my way to my first ever Ayahuasca ceremony in Colorado.

Ayahuasca Is a plant medicine that is used in a ceremonial context for spiritual healing.

In this episode, I share my back story about being called to take this journey (after it was recommended to me by my father), where I’m going, and the years worth of research I’ve done leading up to this.

Enjoy the episode, and let me know if you have any questions.

And stay tuned for part 2, where I will reco

*Links to the 2 books I mentioned are at the bottom. Enjoy!

One of my favorite sayings (that holds very true to me and has throughout my lifetime) is: 

When the student is ready, the teacher appears. 

Right now, I have 2 very profound situations going on that are a perfect example of this.

One is an example of how sometimes, even though we may have already heard something or learned something or read something, that when we hear it or read it

In this episode, I just wanted to remind you that we we never know who’s watching and paying attention when we are putting ourselves out there online.

We never really know whose lives we are affecting, because most of the people who are paying attention will likely never interact with our content.

I also wanted to shine some light on the feeling we sometimes have that we are ashamed in some way of what we are doing (maybe even subconsciously) and feel the need to hide it fro

In this episode, I shared some juicy journal prompts and suggestions to help you start the new year with clarity, purpose, and celebration.

It’s 2023 already can you believe it?

It’s a fresh start, a blank slate, a chance for new beginnings and a chance to start over. It always feels so refreshing to me, I love this time of year.

So… I just wanted to give you a couple of ideas that might be helpful to do as we start the new year.

This episode is a record...

In this episode, I shared 5 Ways to Prepare Your Mind and Business for the New Year.

I just LOVE thinking abut the beginning of a brand new year as it approaches.

It’s like a blank canvas and a new beginning and a chance to let go of the things that are no longer serving us and to create a new year in a way that excites us.

2023 is right around the corner and this is a perfect time to set new intentions, to wipe the slate clean, to do things di...

In this episode, I shared some of my vulnerable experiences and deep thoughts regarding my journey through many years of alcohol and drug addiction as well as my 25 years of sobriety.

This post was sparked by a comment that I received on a recent social media post, where I was expressing gratitude for my 25 year sobriety date.

Most of the comments I received on that post (there were hundreds) we uplifting and positive, and many were from people who were starting out on their

In this episode, I talked about the importance of allowing yourself to be messy in your message and your marketing.

As humans, being vulnerable and transparent often feels uncomfortable to us.

Speaking from our hearts feels scary.

And when we are new at a business or just learning how to market online, it usually feels a whole lot easier to copy what someone else (who is more successful than you) is doing, than to fumble around and find the way that suits you best.

In this episode, I talked about the hidden benefit of having an accountability partner.

Obviously one of the benefits of having an accountability partner is to help you hit your goals on or ahead of schedule…

But your accountability partner also has the potential to become one of your best friends.

Last time I worked toward some big goals with an accountability partner, she became one of my best friends.

We laughed together and cried together and grew together years ago…and she’s still one of my best friend...

In this episode, I talked about the importance of being adaptable in your marketing strategies and how we have to keep up with the changes in technology.

As humans, we don’t like change.

And when it comes to our marketing strategies, we tend to be skeptical when new things are released.

I think that’s just human nature to automatically be skeptical, especially if we’ve been doing something a certain way for a long time…

…but it’s important for us to be adaptable and to change with

In this episode, I talked about the importance of getting your message out into the world, even if at times it seems like nobody is paying attention.

Often times, as human beings, we hold back because we feel like our message is not being given the attention it deserves, or it just feels like nobody is listening at all.

The truth is, you came here with a message to share, and your job is simply to share it… your job is not to control the way it is received.

I go in...

In this episode, I shared Why I Don’t Believe in Niching Down or Pleasing the Algorithm.

This may be a bit of a controversial topic for some people, but I’m okay with that.

In my community, we get together every day to mastermind about our marketing strategies and many of us are getting great results with short form video right now (Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook Reels and YouTube Shorts).

Because these short form videos are all the rage right now, it’s literally easier t

In this episode, I shared How To Use Accountability to Hit Your Goals.

I just finished week 1 of my accountability process that has literally never failed me any of the times I have applied it o hit a big goal.

It wasn’t easy, and I finished by the skin of my teeth before the deadline this week, but I did it.

I may have been a bit of an overachiever this week and bit off a bit more than I could comfortably chew (I share more about that in this po...

Have you noticed that no matter how hard you work on your marketing strategies, that you continue to lose customers as fast as you acquire them?

If so, it may be time to take a good hard look at your business culture.

“The most important thing for your company and your service is your internal culture.”

People, more than anything else, want to feel a sense of community and belonging.

When we develop a strong culture within our businesses, we create a sense of loyalty from our cust...

This past week, I had the honor and privilege of filling in for my dear friend Paul Hutchings on Friday on his more-than-10-years-running Think and Grow Rich Mastermind call.

I spoke about the Power of Our Choices, and I shared a little about my journey when I made the choice to stop drinking alcohol.

In today’s episode, I have provided the recording from the call to help you when it comes to making powerful choices in your life.

In this episode, I spoke about another way to view failure- a way to see it as a positive in your life, not something that needs to be avoided.

I also shared my thoughts about how it’s possible to find the good in all things, to find the greater meaning of even the things that seem tragic, unfair, unjust, and extremely sad.

I
