This personality-laced lesson is a mix of healing truths, business therapy, and the kind of validation that makes you stare at a wall for a solid three minutes afterwards. 🤗🌭 It’s free for ONE WEEK before it’ll trust-fall into my members-only hot dog-themed fun house. Read like your health + happiness depends on it—beacause if you’ve got MAGICIAN DNA, it does. Please sip responsibly! 🥃

You ever try to do business like a metrics-slurping capitalist and immediately feel your third eye roll so far back into your head that you can hear it clicking?

Like, for half a second, you convince yourself, “Okay, THIS TIME, I’ll be structured. I’ll be methodical. I won’t let my magic hijack the process.”

And then by Step 3 you’re either…

🎱 Going from oracle-level clarity to a Magic 8-Ball stuck on ‘Ask Again Later
📈 Sacrificing your gut instincts at the altar of engagement metrics
🔮 Watching your magic get shrink-wrapped and slapped with a SKU number

This isn’t self-sabotage.

This isn’t you being “too woo.”

This is how YOU’re built.

You’re a portal. A pattern recognizer. A paradigm shifter.

The second you’re told “this is just how it’s done,” your entire being vibrates with a knowing: “But what if it could be done differently?”

This is why your soul projectile vomits + sprints naked into the forest every time you try to “follow the blueprint.”

It’s not a short circuit in your operating system. It’s a cosmic directive in your gut.

You weren’t meant to follow the formula—you were meant to bend reality + birth new ways of being.

🔮 THE MAGICIAN PERSONALITY:
Why you can’t just “
hex their self-worth + call it marketing.”

Being a Magician isn’t about pulling rabbits out of hats—it’s about rewiring reality in real time. You don’t just believe in possibility—you bend it to your will.

You don’t just think outside the box—you dismantle the box, turn it into something no one’s ever seen before, and then make them wonder how they lived without it.

While others ask, “Is this possible?” You ask, “How do I make this inevitable?”

🌀 You see problems as unfinished equations.
✨ You see limitations as suggestions, not laws.
🔬 You don’t learn the rules. You break them down to their molecular structure and reassemble them better.

And this is not a phase, stardust. This is just how YOU function at your core!

Which is why running your business the “normal” way feels like trying to solve quantum physics with a fucking abacus.

What the world says you should do:

📦 Just follow what works
🛞 Don’t reinvent the wheel
⏳ Give it time

What actually happens when YOU try to do that?

❌ Your creativity gasps for air
❌ Your genius gets tangled in someone else’s small thinking
❌ Your work loses its spark

Magicians don’t take orders. You solve the unsolvable with science + spirituality.

And that’s not a flaw—it’s why your brain is six tabs ahead of reality.

🪄 Signs You’re A Magician In Business

1. You see shortcuts no one else can.

While they’re struggling with “the system,” you already cracked open the damn matrix.

2. You can turn a disaster into a divine intervention.

Other people freak out. You grab a cauldron and get to work.

3. Your mind is a conspiracy board of brilliance.

Threads, themes, and signals—you see it all weaving together.

4. Your work defies explanation.

Clients try to describe what you do and end up sounding like they just returned from an ayahuasca trip.

5. Your brain is a time traveler.

Your ideas feel “too early,” and then suddenly everyone’s doing them years later.

🧞‍♀️What It Feels Like To Be A Magician In Business

You’re in a burning building.

Everyone is debating what caused the fire.

You grab the extinguisher.

But instead of letting you put the fire out, they tell you to wait.

There’s a protocol. A process.

So you stand there, watching the flames spread, gripping the extinguisher like it’s a murder weapon.

Being a Magician means seeing the solution before anyone else even admits there’s a problem.

That’s why you shut down!

Not because you’re too woo, but because you understand the science behind the “spell.” You just so happen to be able to out-logic a skeptic + out-spirit a shaman in the same breath.

And guess what? The world needs more of that.

Magicians are the ones who alchemize failure into fuel, doubt into data, and obstacles into open doors.


The Brand DNA TestTM That Can Verify Your Magician Roots

If all of this intel feels like, “HOLY SHIT, THIS IS ME,” but you still don’t know exactly what shade of Magician you are or how much of it you’ve got...

Take my Brand DNA TestTM to get your full makeup + a detailed dossier on your exact shades of brand personality (there’s a whole other layer beside your Magician) and how to make this whole sales + marketing thing work for YOU.

It’s weirdly accurate, slightly unhinged, and ridiculously fun.

🛠 How To Build A Business True To Your Magician Core

(Because you weren’t made to “convince people to buy”—you were made to unlock the part of them that already knows they need this.)

The business world would really love it if you just picked a niche, followed the 6-figure funnel formula, and ignored the hundreds of better ideas already brewing in your brain.

Their whole game? Tricking you into believing that if you don’t follow the ‘rules,’ your magic won’t work.

Jokes on them. Your magic works BECAUSE you refuse to follow their rules.

Everything you need to build a powerful, paradigm-shifting, magnetic AF business is already inside YOU.

You don’t need to be more strategic. You don’t need to simplify.

You need to stop second-guessing the way your mind naturally works + start creating the way you were designed to.

Here’s how.
