BH: What caused the life implosion you reference in talking of your own transformation?

Alara: I supported my mother in a three-year health struggle that caused the end of her physical life in 2009, and in 2010 I chose to end my 33 year marriage.

I put my stuff in storage and set out on an epic, yearlong spiritual journey under the name of Brenda Hope Gibbs.

I spent 7 of the next 15 months exploring and transforming both my inner and outer worlds through the spiritual teachings, initiations, challenges and adventures of Hawaii, Peru and Australia.

In March of 2012, I was drawn to South Australia to collaboratively birth a 32in Community Mother Drum, Soletê ~ Golden One.

I emerged from my adventures with the new name of Alara Payten, (meaning Holy Child, Noble Woman.)

BH: What has been the biggest shift in your perception of yourself, and your business, that has allowed you to start actualizing your business dreams into your reality now?

Alara: I came to realize that I‘m in the 20% minority of business owners who are Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs, as opposed to being in with the 80% who are called Business Warrior types. It has been such a relief to know why, after spending several years and many, many thousands of dollars taking business-coaching and development courses, I simply could not make their systems work for me.

I’m now in a 6-month coaching program with other Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs. I feel so much more in my element, where my inner energy is supported and managed first as the basis for my outer action steps in bringing forth my Source –Centered business.

This new support is assisting me in breaking free of the old bi-polar tendencies I have had in the past where I try to do things in a way that are incongruent with who I really am. I would get all fired up by the ‘Olympian cry’ of the training and make progress at the beginning of the program but would then collapse due to the warrior energy being unsustainable for me.

I am considered a ‘Royal Advisor’ to the Olympic champion, rather than the Olympic champion themselves. I have absolutely no interest in getting to the top of the podium personally.

What lights me up is helping others get to the top of their podiums. I can cheer and celebrate them along the way and delight in the assistance I gave them that allowed them to receive their coveted prize.

BH: How have you made peace with YOUR past?

Alara: I have made peace with my relationship with my father, who was severely depressed for most of my life. Although he made his transition at 66 years of age, I was able to work with a grief counselor to heal our relationship and restore it to one of deep love, honoring and respect for my papa.

I have also journeyed deeply over the past 18 years to bring peace to childhood sexual trauma with my grandfather that occurred from the ages of 4 to 8. I started on a more traditional path and was then introduced to energy based alternative practices that revolutionized my life.

I ended up leaving my physical therapy practice to pursue a body-mind-spirit path to wholeness as a life calling.

During my experiences with my mother’s prolonged illness, I was able to use what I had gained through my healings with my father and my grandfather. This allowed me to be more and more aware and engaged with the healing opportunities that presented themselves for me personally and for my mother. It was my deep honor to support her on her difficult journey of facing her own death.

She was open to exploring inner child healing work, energy work, spiritual transformation, relationship healing opportunities with family members and being openly supported as she asked the deep questions of the dying.

BH: What are the most important tools you use, on a regular basis, to support your energy, so you don’t collapse in the business warrior world?

Alara: The foundational practice I use is the 5 step process I’m gifting to your readers in the 30 minute mediation, 5 Sacred Steps to ReclaimYour Power and Take Control of Your Life.

Here are my steps:

1. Getting connected to the now moment.

2. Geting connected to my own body, feelings, and energy field.

3. Getting connected with the energy, support, nurturance, and knowing of Mother Earth, and Source (The God/Goddess of my understanding.)

4. Feasting upon the divine nectars.

5. Activate my central Divine Love Vortex.

I add into the mix my spiritual practices from my Inkan initiations, my Hawaiian Ho’oponopno initiation, my Unity spiritual studies and A Course In Miracles.

BH: What’s the most important point that you want our readers to take away today?

Alara: It is never, NEVER too late to make peace with your past, your body & your life so you can live more powerfully NOW and create the deeply fulfilling life you deserve to live.

Reach out and get the help you need – you do not have to do this alone.
