Soulful Ambition

The podcast for ambitious people yearning for more soul. Formerly known as A Balancing Act, Soulful Ambition explores what it means to live inside out and go after our deepest longings. Analisa Leaming is a Broadway actor turned down what would have been her 5th Broadway show to move her family to the mountains of Colorado and become a full-time coach. Soulful Ambition might sound contradictory at first… Because we’ve let society define ambition as striving for individual success, monetary gain, and personal achievements. But that’s not what the soul really craves. In each episode, we’re calling back the parts of ourselves conditioned to society’s grind and external pressure. And awakening the longing in your chest that is so big it threatens to swallow you whole. So you can shine unapologetically, source from within, and work towards your dreams with abandon.

In this short and sweet episode, I share with you my belief that we are all Stars and the importance of lighting up from within rather than waiting for someone to give us permission to shine.

 

You'll hear all about the purpose behind the upcoming online workshop:

What it’s for:

We all want to be a star. We all want to shine our light generously, unapologetically everywhere we go. When we are in our star power we are filled up from the inside --- we don’t look to others for validation, we’re inspired, we’re giving, we’re beautiful, and we’re a magnet for our dreams.

This 2-hour interactive workshop will be a deep dive into your own power. You’ll discover the thoughts that are holding you back and then create a new story. You’ll receive tools and practices designed to support you in shining your light + manifesting your dreams.

Who it’s for:

Anyone who is waiting to be a star.

Whether you’re waiting for your equity card, an agent, your Broadway debut or Tony award - you feel like something is missing and that you’re not where you’re supposed to be.

You’re ready for change.

You’re ready to level up.

You’re ready to start being a STAR today.

I’ve known since season one of ABA that Jane Jourdan would be a guest on Season Two - we collaborated for her blog Fit for Broadway and she’s exactly the kind of high-vibing mover and shaker I love to talk to. In today’s conversation Jane shares her journey from opera singer to successful business owner with all of the ups and downs along the way.

Today’s episode is a rich, inspiring conversation with author and artist, Meera Lee Patel. She shares her long journey to becoming a freelancer who supports herself solely with her art. While she’s not a performing artist like most of our other guests, we all can relate to the dream and seeming sacrifice to attain it. Her newest book, My Friend Fear: Finding Magic in the Unknown, is a stunning, visual feast and we dive into the idea that perhaps fear can be a beautiful friend.

Today’s episode is a beautiful, fun, high-vibrational conversation with Broadway performer and Broadway Life Coach, Bret Shuford. 

He gets vulnerable whilst sharing about his sobriety and how it has helped with boundaries, loving and accepting himself, and being of service. 

This leads to a deep dive into sobriety and addiction from alcohol to sugar to social media and how we’re not getting what we really need. Once we address the core needs that aren’t being met life opens up in ways we only dream of. Sobriety led to Bret’s first Broadway show. Giving up sugar has brought me incredible ease and freedom.

Bret then opens up about his favorite failure, entrepreneurship, and how he stays in alignment.
