Ep. 31: Attracting Love & Clients Through Embodiment with Guest Lauren Ciesco

Episode Summary:

In this episode Shonda welcomes special guest and business coach, Lauren Ciesco. Together, they explore how the principles of embodiment, emotional healing, and inner guidance apply to attracting your soulmate (and soulmate clients if you’re a business owner). Lauren shares her personal journey of going from emotionally unavailable to open-hearted in dating, and how that parallels her experience of building a thriving, soul-aligned business. Tune in to learn why “the how” isn’t the most important factor in success—whether in love or in business—and how trusting yourself, processing emotions, and embracing your full self can create magnetic results.

Key Topics & Takeaways

The Power of Embodiment

• What It Means: Being fully present and aligned in your body, beliefs, and emotions, rather than relying on superficial affirmations or forced actions.
• Why It Matters: Embodiment creates the magnetic energy that attracts what you truly desire—whether that’s a loving partner or soulmate clients.

Emotional Work & Safety

• Facing Fear and Rejection: Both dating and business growth require the willingness to feel discomfort, process rejection, and cultivate inner safety.
• Healing Anxious Attachment: Learning to release old patterns and subconscious blocks allows for deeper trust in relationships and entrepreneurial endeavors.

From “Pick Me” to “I’m Chosen”

• Shifting Self-Worth: Moving away from a grasping, validation-seeking approach to a confident, grounded stance that naturally draws people in.
• Boundaries & Unattachment: Knowing your worth leads to healthier boundaries and less premature attachment, both in love and in sales.

Feminine Energy & Flow

• Allowing vs. Forcing: Embodying a relaxed, trusting energy invites people to come to you, rather than chasing or controlling outcomes.
• Inner Guidance: Tuning into your intuition—what Lauren calls “soul consciousness”—provides clarity and alignment far beyond what the mind alone can offer.

Parallels Between Love & Business

• Soulmate Clients vs. Soulmate Partners: The same inner shifts—trust, emotional resilience, and authenticity—apply in attracting both.
• Practical Magic: While strategy and apps/websites are useful, the real “secret sauce” is the energetic work beneath the surface.

Lauren Ciesco helps soul-led entrepreneurs unlock their full potential—financially, energetically, and strategically. With 20 years of experience in sales and business, she blends deep embodiment work with intuitive sales and money coaching, guiding creatives, coaches, and service providers to make money doing what they love without the burnout, hustle, or sleazy tactics.

After leaving a high-level corporate sales career that left her feeling empty, Lauren redefined success on her own terms. Now, she’s on a mission to help others do the same—teaching them to step into their power, trust their inner guidance, and build businesses that light them up and fill their bank accounts.
