you, comma, cannot quit your job | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 12 14

you, comma, cannot quit your job

Because the work you can walk away from, without feeling like you just cut off a limb;
The stuff that you do not automatically start doing in every hour freeing up in your schedule;

Was never your job to begin with.

I was, or perhaps still am because you should never underestimate the power of this evil, as guilty as any creative to considering to QUIT, creating.
To still, catch myself being on the fence, about whether or not I was going to give my creativity the time it demands.
Skillfully ignoring, that creativity does not come with such a choice.

Yes, you can be on the fence of whether you want to go all in on monetizing your creativity. Setting it up in a way it allows you to walk away from a job you don’t like, or being able to accept only the work you like to do.
There is a choice, if you want to invest a portion of your creative time into this.
Setting up an income stream so you can have more creative time later.

But, what is not an option, is to walk away from your creative work.
It was given to you, like your eyes, your heart, your breath.

And on the fence is not a spot where one can safely be for too long.
Let along build a home there.

~Suzanne

THE ROCK STAR

.
THE ROCK STAR, is Catacombe’s signature 3 hour session, for those who know they cannot quit what they were born to do;
And wouldn’t even want to, even if it didn’t “result” into anything, and bring them nothing except the gratification of the work itself.

THE ROCK STAR is a one-time investment, and our conversation is confidential.

To book, email me at:
s_beenackers@hotmail.com

Terms and conditions at:
https://catacombenijmegen.com/terms-conditions/

Once we know we are a good fit, my price is accepted by you and you choose to make a booking;
We move.

It is possible the above story has already given you an outline of what you want to discuss.

If you think you would benefit from a broader approach, my suggestion will be to sort your story into:

1. the earthly plane
Your possessions, worldly matters, income streams, worries and responsibilities you fear you can’t meet.
A helpful term could be how do things look from the perspective of financial freedom, or worldly freedom.

2. your purpose
What is the work you love doing, what are the moments big or small, that you know you are aligned. Has God told you, what you’re here for?
This is about creative freedom, or even karmic freedom.
Are you free to do the work, that is yours?

3. your Rock Star expansion
What is the fullest expression you are here to bring?
And what are the areas you’re playing small, as if cut off from your powers?
We investigate if in those areas, the rules you play by are yours, or society’s.
“3” is related to sexual freedom.
Like anything, it is up to you if that is part of our conversation or not.

Because all three points are just a suggestion, they offer a good framework providing one hour for every topic, to go deeper looking for answers.
But the setlist is not fixed.

It is up for you to take it.

there are only 2 questions | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 12 12

there are only 2 questions

They’re not mine, they come from a coach named Katrina Ruth. She used them in courses and livestreams, in her older work I think around 2016, 2017.

1. Do you think you will ultimately make it?
2. Can you get through today?

A man becomes what he thinks about most. As does a woman of course.
This wisdom too is not from me but from an audio training from 1956 by Earl Nightingale.
And it points us to the unnamed, but very fundamental, foundation underneath the questions;
You need to know what to think about. You need to know where you’re going.

The first question can only be answered by those who know what they are actively aiming for.
The goal, in Earl Nightingale’s work.

In those years, Katrina Ruth’s audience consisted almost exclusively of women who had a business.
Of course they knew what “make it” meant, and of course they knew what they were aiming for.

I say “of course”, but in the Netherlands, for entrepreneurs this is actually not Built-IN.
In particular independents, because from the outside it looks like they’re doing the same work as professionals with a payroll job.

After spending years of studying business in the online space, I realized that the secret to their success, and the difference between the struggling energy of local independents, had little to do with infinite (technological) possibilities of the digital world;
And everything, with how online entrepreneurs saw themselves.

As professionals with a goal.
A purpose.
A message that they were here to tell THROUGH their work (yes), but also through their business.
The business was a message in itself.

To actively pursue a worthy ideal, is what creates success according to Earl Nightingale.

Making the first question a reminder of your most precious possession;
A goal.

And with that you can always, make it through the day.

~Suzanne

to wear a ring of power is to be alone | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 12 10

to wear a ring of power is to be alone

Said Galadriel to Frodo, but she may have reminded any of us.

“But I do not own a ring of power,” I hear you say.
But you do.

To have a purpose is to own a ring of power, because you now know where you’re going.
An advantage few of us have.
And a road, few of us take.

You can find companionship at the foot of the mountain, and in the inns of the villages you cross.
But the way itself is dangerous.

Even if you left with nine, the fellowship will break, and ultimately you’ll end up side by side, with that one person that was always there.
Unshakable.

Just like Frodo you may even mistake them for an enemy at one point, something you will feel ashamed of later.

But even if you don’t, and you appreciate and feel grateful for the people walking alongside of you, for however long your time together is;
The burden is always yours to bear.

Alone.

~Suzanne

Absolutely TIRED, of the loneliness?!

Venus moved into Scorpio | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 12 08

Venus moved into Scorpio

From the 4th to the 29th of December the planet of love and relationships is in the sign that governs complex emotions;
And fosters an intimate connection to the dark side.

Scorpio.
—–
Five years ago, I had my chart read by a real life astrologer.
And although, like all the digital birth charts I must by now own, it got lost the moment I archived it “to keep it safe”, there was one thing that had come to the table that was so unique it ended up being something I mulled over for weeks.

Something all the other charts had not come up with, at least not formulated that clearly.

It was that Scorpio had basically “taken over” my chart.
Although there was nothing to overthrow since Scorpio was given this advantage from the moment I opened my eyes.

And she told me that I wasn’t the only one;
Scorpio is the most dominant sign of the Zodiac and when given a chance, it will overtake even your sun sign.

All my life my sun sign, charismatic Leo, had been really just the outer shell.
The reason, people are drawn to me.
Or repelled.

But under the fiery flames a deeper current ran.

One of sexuality, death, pain.
An innate longing to be tested and hurt in Love, so Who I Am dies;
And the “I” is born again.

It is the same current that has been running under your life, for the last few days.

And you can still feel her there, waiting, yearning, residing, for the next 20 days.
The only one who can take you where no one else can.

Go to her.

the word you’re looking for is lifestyle | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 12 05

the word you’re looking for is lifestyle

Also known as action-to-take, vision, One Thing, and Identity-in-motion.

You were never fed, inspired or driven by the result, let alone by totally-soul-sucking ways to get there;
You were called by the daily grind of BEING it
—–
Yesterday I taught my first night-time yoga class since letting go of my yoga space, in the first year of the pandemic.

I started a daytime group in September, and now run the soft opening of 2 evening groups that will start in January
->
https://declubyoga.com/2023/11/03/inschrijving-yogagroepen-nijmegen-2024-geopend/

Within my new yoga company de Club these group classes are not my core business,
and the reason I offer them at this stage already, is because I got an opportunity to rent such a great space, and on Monday night;
It really was now or never!

However, what I was not prepared for, was how being back teaching yoga at night time made me feel….
At home.

I felt grateful, and I was at peace, more than I have been in years.

And I realized this is not just me, this is all who think and know what it takes to succeed in a worldly sense, and as an entrepreneur or artist.

We forget we never came here for the result.

We came here to be a living and breathing *insert your profession*;
Who ARE their profession every step of the way.

It was the lifestyle of being a working yoga teacher, that fueled me.

And I bet my yoga mat it is the LIFESTYLE of whatever profession it is you think you “do”, where your unexplored potential and your happiness lies.

Claim it, and it’s yours.

the only thing it needs is selling | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 11 30

the only thing it needs is selling

Everything you invest in supporting systems, in platforms, and even in marketing, that does not make your heart sing?

One more thing you can trip over.
One more thing keeping you from living the life you want.

Herman Brood was a rock star in the Netherlands, and he maintained his public persona really well. He struggled with drugs and alcohol throughout his life, yet he kept taking care of the way he presented himself.

Dying his hair, choosing the right clothes, taking care of his teeth.
He was also soft-spoken and friendly, you would have been hard-pressed to find anybody who did not like him.

I consider the way he showed up for his audience, which in his case was almost everybody because he was so famous and he was recognized in the streets like any celebrity; I consider that, the ideal way each and everyone of us should show up in our business.
It was, although I doubt he would have called it that, amazing marketing.

We were all in love with him, and he could have sold us anything.
And he did.

Because Herman Brood was a painter. And he had been to art school too, just that his music career had taken off before the art did. But later in his life he got back to painting and drawing.

Now here’s why Herman Brood is such a great example of learning how to get back to the barebones of doing business;

Herman Brood could paint something, walk out on the streets, and sell it. 

-> Zero <- systems.

I believe that ideally we should be able to sell like that.

And sure.
If Herman Brood had had a website, an Etsy account, a PayPal and an Instagram?
He would have sold MORE.

But he was an example of what pure, virtuoze selling looked like.

stop looking for the choose button | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 11 28

stop looking for the choose button

If there was an option to be wired for freedom, for expansion, for growth;
For knowing the truth and the obligation to act in accordance with it;
No one in their right mind would take it.

Which is why it was never an option.
It was given.

When I started my company Catacombe, earlier this year, I still thought I would speak to three types of clients, not one.
Next to those with a Rock Star attitude on life, I could really understand those who were artists, and felt a need to create;
As well as business owners, and how they were motivated by serving their customers well.

As long as someone felt a calling and a purpose, I knew I was the right person for them.

However, I ate my words there.
Within half a year I reversed my decision.

Because the thing they could not NOT do, the choice they did NOT have;
Was an entirely different one.

A called and inspired artist cannot NOT make art, and a purposeful business owner cannot NOT sell and be of service or connect with their clients.
They recognize their path, their dharma, the thing they are here for on this earth.
Life itself flows through them, the moment they do their aligned work.

Whereas having a Rock Star attitude comes with the innate knowing that not only are we Free;
We also have the obligation, to exercise that freedom.

That freedom cannot be a theoretical concept, which we can sideline when a piece of art is coming through, or a business is being built, or clients want to be served.

Our freedom must first be guaranteed.

Or, alternatively, lack thereof acknowledged, an identification we are now under command, and that we lost the one thing we know we cannot live without.

Freedom.

the medium is not the message | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 11 26

the medium is not the message

Be grateful for how you get to share and sell your work.

But do not attach, because all platforms and even your own skillset are ultimately subject to change.

Where your message is eternal.

It used to be one of the things I learned studying business, that I thought was so useful, insightful, and something every business owner should know!
That any business is only as good as their systems.

Systems for example for offering online courses, for taking orders, packaging, processing payments, registrations and so on, are the real value, of our business.

If your systems work great, you can even sell your business.
And to the highest bidder of which there will be many!
Or setup a franchise system, which comes down to leasing out your set of systems.

And not just in-house tech.
Platforms too, which you use to get your content out or the money in, are part of your systems.
This is the infamous:
“Don’t build your house on somebody else’s ground.” – wisdom.

A warning, that if you build a business relying on a platform, it could all be taken away from you.

Something I am experiencing because I have been unable to access this website catacombenijmegen.com.

Only in this case, I had paid for use of the ground, but the payment went wrong triggering the landowner’s accountant and they kicked me off.

Thankfully, access has been restored, but a residual hiccup persists, and the url currently still has “wordpress” in there.
The main url is not in place yet.

But what I learned was what is wrong with the idea that a business = systems.

There is another way.

Which is to rely on YOU;
Not on your systems.

For a regular business owner, or an accountant, or someone who loves building systems?
Yes.
Your business SHOULD be to build systems.

But a Rock Star was born in freedom, and what they sell is the promise of that.

The medium they use, is simply the one they have access to today.

THE ROCK STAR

.
THE ROCK STAR, is Catacombe’s signature 3 hour session, for anyone who knows they require freedom, more than anything else.
And their gold, is their message.

THE ROCK STAR is a one-time investment, and our conversation is confidential.

To book, email me at:
s_beenackers@hotmail.com

Terms and conditions at:
https://catacombenijmegen.com/terms-conditions/

Once we know we are a good fit, my price is accepted by you and you choose to make a booking;
We move.

It is possible the above story has already given you an outline of what you want to discuss.

If you think you would benefit from a broader approach, my suggestion will be to sort your story into:

1. the earthly plane
Your possessions, worldly matters, income streams, worries and responsibilities you fear you can’t meet.
A helpful term could be how do things look from the perspective of financial freedom, or worldly freedom.

2. your purpose
What is the work you love doing, what are the moments big or small, that you know you are aligned. Has God told you, what you’re here for?
This is about creative freedom, or even karmic freedom.
Are you free to do the work, that is yours?

3. your Rock Star expansion
What is the fullest expression you are here to bring?
And what are the areas you’re playing small, as if cut off from your powers?
We investigate if in those areas, the rules you play by are yours, or society’s.
“3” is related to sexual freedom.
Like anything, it is up to you if that is part of our conversation or not.

Because all three points are just a suggestion, they offer a good framework providing one hour for every topic, to go deeper looking for answers.
But the setlist is not fixed.

I have merely built the stage for us, and we have three hours.

It is up for you to take it.

what floats, floats | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 11 03

what floats, floats

The things that appeared when we were just having fun.
The skills we now possess after simply doing what we love.
The people in our lives, after following our heart.

Have you ever wondered how impossible it would have been to have planned for those things?

There is a tendency to focus on what we need to create, build, master;
Compose, conceive, and receive;
Instead of honoring, considering and going with, what came into being without us even trying.

But just like the saying goes, that if you let something go and it comes back it is yours to keep?
The same can be said for all those things you never asked for;
They’re yours to keep. Really, to keep.

Where manmade reality, of any kind, is fickle, needs constant adjusting, readjusting, aligning and even redesigning?
This does not apply to what I will call “God’s gifts”.

The things, people, circumstances, Life, that comes to us, not from us.

From what I remember, the most important tool to live a happier life, is a gratitude journal, which is a notebook where you write down what you’re grateful for.
Every day.
And I’ll be the first to admit I don’t have one, although I tried many times. The first time in 1998 already.

My problem was that what started as a gratitude journal would soon become a log, a reflection of everything that happened.
It wouldn’t be long until my desire to keep a complete record of my days took over and the savoring of the good moments dropped to the background.
There was too much trying (trying to build the boat), and not much appreciating of the boats that were there all by themselves.

Whether you start a gratitude journal, or not;
Look for the boats you did not build, but that are happily floating throughout your life.

Be in wonder of everything you did not create.

~Suzanne

THE ROCK STAR, is Catacombe’s signature 3 hour session, for anyone who knows they’ve spent boat-building for far too long;
And know it is time to start sailing with the fleet that what was gifted to them.

And to open their ports, so the boats that already have their name on it, can dock their pier.
To stop staring at the terminals in the cabin of the harbor master;
But choose open waters with the eyes on the horizon.

THE ROCK STAR is a one-time investment, and our conversation is confidential.

it is never the thing you need to think about | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2023 10 27

it is never the thing you need to think about

What is yours to create, flows out of you like a river to the ocean or comes crashing down, with waterfall-like urgency.
It are the things you keep thinking about like a lover you do not allow yourself to have.

Yes, of course, in theory?
You can wall all that off!

Hooray!
Now tell me, where did Life go?

I had what I would call a Journaling Incident, and it was about as disturbing as when something goes wrong with sex.
Even when all it was, was just the two of you pushing things, hungry for each other and for a bigger thrill;

It will still have consequences.

There needs to be a going back to square one, after an incident.
An acknowledgement from both sides:
“Okay, this happened, but we’re still here for each other.”

I have not journaled since, but I did spend some time thinking about it and “we’re good now”, me and my journaling practice.
I actually found it intriguing that there had been more at stake than I used to think there was.
But apparently, just like with sex: Journaling has an element of danger.
The hallmark of any emotionally charged expressions of Self.

Just like your art.
You can’t control the outcome, anymore than sex or journaling, and you may miss the mark sometimes. If you didn’t, it wouldn’t be art.

So now back to the title at hand:
“it is never the thing you need to think about”

Just like with sex, or committing to a relationship, anyone you need to think about and talk yourself into liking, or start putting conditions around? 
Ah, ah!
Not the person you want to be with, clearly.
We’re looking for rivers, waterfalls and avalanches.
Not dripping taps.

Years ago, I identified a rarely talked about factor, in harmful sexual encounters;
It is if we want all parties to understand what a No is?
We need to start respecting the Yes!

As long as we do not honor that two people having a deep sexual desire for each other, is something beautiful, and to be celebrated;
We will keep having trouble with No’s being interpreted, or someone getting away with interpreting it as, a Yes.

In other words:
Is your creativity, your art, the thing you were put here for on this earth, is it a safe bet with a certain outcome?
No.
Could you end up making a mistake and hurting people?
Yes.

But regardless, Rock Star, what else are you gonna do?

You can spend your life working on projects with a certain outcome, and limit yourself to planning instead of allowing free flow journaling like I did.
Just like you can choose to spend it in a good-enough relationship, that constantly needs adjusting because the two of you lack, or no longer have, the natural alignment of values, of dreams, of communication styles, of whatever.

Or, alternatively:
You can start saying Hell Yes!!!

To the projects, the ideas, the people, and the creative endeavors that are already banging at your door every morning.
And you could let them in, in your bathrobe, and you two would have such a good time, creatively or otherwise.

They’re already galloping through your mind, and you could take them out for a spin at lunch.

They’re already waiting for you, when you get home at night, and you could just make a sandwich and get to work together.

They’re already there with you in your dreams, every night, all night.

Stop putting mind and effort in the maybes, the perhaps, the ifs, the on-the-conditions-thats.

When there is an infinite whole world of Hell Yesses waiting for you!
