The JOY Broadcast

This week I am joined by a woman I have known for almost a decade and who I consider one of the wisest people in my world. Kay Manby has lived more chapters than most of us will in a lifetime. A young marriage that did not survive. Eight years raising three children alone. A second marriage to the love of her life. And then watching that love, Jim, go through cancer.
What Kay has built from that loss is extraordinary. She trained as a yoga teacher in her sixties, taught women in probation, qigong, became a celebrant who has sat beside the dying and written the words spoken at their funerals. She talks in this episode about fear as a driver rather than an enemy, about grief taking the ground out from under you, and about a stranger in a taxi who once told her every new day is a blank piece of paper.
We talk about her five one Manifestor profile and what it means to work in bursts rather than constantly. About amateur dramatics at nearly seventy and the buzz of doing the thing that terrifies you. And about her simple, powerful message for anyone listening. Notice beauty everywhere. Love generously. Live gently. Laugh often.
This is a conversation to come back to again and again.

The Lionsgate Portal Meditation
The final part in Ali's three part series on dreaming again. 
This episode is a guided meditation, recorded a few years ago for Ali's Devoted mastermind, and returned to every year for the Lionsgate portal. Where the last two episodes were about the practical work, the telescope, the compass, head, heart, soul, self, this one hands it over to the heart. No thinking, no figuring it out, just opening up and letting the images, ideas and whispers come through in their own time.
Ali releases this on the 7th of August so it's ready for when the Lionsgate portal is it's most powerful on the 8th. The energy runs through to the New Moon in Leo on the 12th, so use it once, or come back to it every day through that window, whichever feels right.
You can do this lying down, sitting, walking, or resting. (Just not while driving.)
How to use it
Place a hand on your heart if that helps you drop in. Let go of trying to force a vision, this isn't about picturing what you've already planned, it's about letting your heart show you something new. If nothing comes during the meditation itself, don't worry, the ideas often land later. In the shower, on the walk home, right as you're falling asleep.

If dreaming again is where you're at, this is exactly the kind of work Ali leads members through inside the Joy Rebellion, all year round, not just under a Lionsgate portal. → THE JOY REBELLION

As we continue towards the Lionsgate portal - here is your preparation for one of the most powerfully energetic portals for manifesting your dreams.  
This week Ali talks about giving herself permission to dream again, especially at the point in life where so much of the original dream has already come true. She shares the process she uses to build a new dream from scratch, the telescope and the compass she walks every dream through before she acts on it: head, heart, soul, self. 
She also talks about her dad's 90th birthday, what he told her about happiness at ninety, and why she's letting herself get properly delusional about what comes next, ahead of the Lionsgate portal on the 8th of the 8th.
Journal Prompts: The Telescope and The Compass
Pull these out for your own journal this week. One question, one simple step, for each point.
The Telescope
Look down the telescope at your own life. If you could teleport into it exactly as you want it, what would you see? Write it without editing yourself. Pin on pinterest with delusion.
Head
What does your head think when you look at that vision? Write down the first thought, supportive or resistant, without judging it. What beliefs need rebelieving.
Heart
Sit with the vision until you feel something. Where in your body do you feel it? Name the feeling, don't explain it. Feel the fear and know you are going to do it anyway.
Soul
Ask yourself, and wait. What does my soul already know, what does it want to share with me, what do I need to forgive, let go and know I am worthy of receiving? Write down whatever comes, even if it's just a word.
Self
Based on everything above, what's one small action, not the whole plan, just the next honest step?
Joy Rebellion
 If this episode landed for you, this is exactly the kind of work Ali walks members through inside the Joy Rebellion, live, every week. Come and dream out loud with a room full of women doing the same thing. →  Join THE JOY REBELLION

This week Ali steps away from the 'Rebel' interview series to share something raw and real. A conversation with a Brilliance client about her fear of confrontation. A near miss on the motorway. A hard conversation . And three new JOY codes that came out of all of it.
In this episode:
Why so many women, especially women who are married, running businesses or raising children, spend their energy keeping the peace around them, only to end up at war within themselves
Using Human Design to understand why conflict lands so hard for some of us (the undefined solar plexus, explained through the bubble analogy)
The story: a scorching Friday drive home, a property handover crisis, a near collision with a lorry, and the flood of feeling that followed
Code 1: comparison isn't always the thief of joy, sometimes it shows you exactly what you want more of
Code 2: why asking for space before a hard conversation isn't avoidance, it's respect
Code 3: confrontation only exists when you bring provocation to the table. Bring calm instead, and there's just conversation
The sailor and the harbour: why coming to rest after high seas can feel harder than the storm itself, and why that's not a sign anything's wrong
What happened when Ali and James finally had the conversation, and the bigger realisation waiting on the other side of it
Mentioned in this episode:
Human Design: find out yours free here:

CALM:  buy the book here (visualisation, nervous system, calm as a practice)
Coming next week: part two of the mini series. Ali takes you through her own dreaming and blueprinting process, ahead of the Lionsgate portal on 8/8.
The answer is always joy. Love always, Ali x

This week I am continuing my summer series, sitting down with the brilliant women of the Joy Rebellion to share their stories. And this conversation is such a beautiful one.
Claire Louise has been part of the Joy Rebellion and Joy in HD™  over the past year, and her story is one of the most beautiful I have heard. A childhood spent feeling like she did not quite fit. A life that looked successful from the outside, the career, the marriage, the family, while something kept growing quietly disconnected underneath. And then a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis that became, in her words, her body's way of saying we cannot keep living like this.
We talk about her discovery of Human Design and the moment she finally understood her own 3/6 profile. About iridescence, the phenomenon where a cloud holds every colour all along and simply needs the light to shift to reveal it. That is the whole philosophy behind her work now, helping women see that they were never broken and never needed fixing. Just a different light.
We talk about trust without certainty. About clarity coming from movement, not from waiting until everything makes sense. And about her grandmother, rainbows, and the silver linings she has learned to find inside the hardest situations.
If you have ever felt like you have drifted from who you really are, this episode is for you.
