Let’s Get You Sellin’ | new offer 2024 – 2027

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

We really have only one job.
As artists, as entrepreneurs, but also in ANY job whether in the commercial market or the public sector.

And it is, you guessed it, it is to sell.

And although life would get much easier if we all learned this, or were aware of this, that this is the key thing required to get through life smoothly whether you have a payroll job or not;
Let’s just limit it to a professional context.

So that’s all payroll jobs, but also the independents of artist, writer, or  otherwise hopefully madly passionate about what it is you do- person.

We are all basically paid to the degree at which we are successful at selling. Not “selling ourselves”, no, “selling”.
Sec.
But some of us are more comfortable selling products, and we show up daily on the socials to sell those.
Others also prefer something tangible, but have a business-to-business strategy where they strive for making one bigger deal a week.

As employees we need to work out an income strategy, how we are going to navigate our career.
And as independent service providers (so we don’t sell tangible products), we should answer these two questions;
“What do I want to sell?”
“Who do I want to sell it to?”

So if I’m a writer, the answer can be selling my time, selling copy, articles, manuscripts, printed books, my body of work, one new novel a year etc.
And to whom the answers can be selling to businesses, or to Instagram users, to book publishers, to Hollywood producers, to collectors and so on.

In all cases, whether we’re selling products, are employed, or selling services;
It’s not the quality of your work, that determines its financial success.
It’s whether we’re able to sell the work successfully.

We can only sell successfully to an audience that is a match with how we want to sell. There are transactions and markets where buyers feel insecure and aggressive selling is a big No.
These buyers are, often entirely justified, very uncomfortable being sold to because they recognize their vulnerability here.

But this is a perfect market for you, if you have a lot of patience, love giving explanation and even coaching your clients through their buying experience. Your ethical way of serving this particular audience, could make you a very successful seller there.

But that’s not for everybody!
Many of us like a little bit more speed!
And love creating easy grab-click-pay offers, that buzz with excitement.

Here too, if you like the high-energy of having a lot of clients and an avalanche of sales?
This is your thing!

But get this;
Although Let’s Get You Sellin’ is inspired by my realization that so many qualified professionals fail to make any money because their industry just doesn’t have a healthy financial practice;
The problem underpinning it all?
Is a cultural one.

It’s not specific to running a business, but just as problematic with salary conversations. And it’s also not limited to money, and could just as easily be applied to dating.

The cultural problem is a coded in limit on how much space we are allowed to take up.
How much sex and more specifically how many partners we’re allowed to have?
How much money we’re allowed to make?
How much power they’re comfortable with?
It’s all the same.

And it’s how you’re cock blocked from your own good fortune.

In all those areas, our culture has us moving within invisible lines of shame and internalized aggression. And it is that electric fence that we cross if we start selling. Whether selling is a salary conversation, selling our digital products on Instagram, or making our move or planting our flag, in any of the above mentioned areas;
You will feel the presence of the fence.
And the sting if you cross the line.

If you get a shock, that was culture aggressively indicating how far you are allowed to go.

THAT, is the reason I want you to start selling.

Not because it is the only way to make money, and not even as a way to liberate yourself.
BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW WHERE YOU ARE.

Selling is like the smoke that makes invisible radar or laser beams, visible to the naked eye.
Do it, and you will see the tripwires, externally as well as internally.

Catacombe is my business created for ROCK STARS.
So of course my vision for you is that you do liberate yourself.

These invisible constraints are toxic as hell, yet cloaked as love and worry about your well being.
By the people that are closest to you.
It is crucial that you understand what has happened to you. And why this shaming of selling is so particularly debilitating.

And there is more.
Because you are not just, selling.
You are also an artist, a creative, meaning your work itself has a destabilizing edge to it.

Even if you make the most lovely nature pencil drawings, simply the amount of time you’d spend on them, the dedication to your craft and the prolific sharing of your work, would be more than enough to draw out snarky and discouraging remarks.

I wish for you to open your eyes and to see what the forces are you are actually dealing with here.
Because even if you decide staying within the lines of other people’s comfort zones is at least for now your best strategy;
You need to know that, is what you’re doing.

Otherwise the first shock of electric fence will have you floored.

I believe we should aspire to step on that for many of us new path, of standing up for ourselves and for our work;
Promoting ourselves and making ourselves or our work visible;
And the endgame of starting to sell, like you own it!

It is one of the most actionable and liberating things we as human beings can do for ourselves.

Maybe this post is more than enough for you to understand the forces at play here, and to start leaning into them.
Let them feed you, call them out, draw a line in the sand as to how far from now on your life will be influenced by so called well-meaning advice about what you can or cannot create;
How or where you show up;
And who you sell to and how you sell.

Then go forth and start selling in any way you see fit.
Create and boldly stand by it.
Yes, you are in integrity selling.
And No, you do not need mine or anybody’s approval.

If you’d like to have a conversation with me, then you can book

Let’s Get You Sellin’

It will be available until 7 July 2027.

The costs are € 297.
And what you get is a two hour call with me.
And the invitation to send me all your thoughts on the subject, in writing, in the week before our call.

Until mid-March 2025, I have options available until 8 PM Central European Time.
After this I expect to be scaling down, so if you are on a different continent (like East Coast USA) this might be the better time to book.

You’re welcome to take the call on repeat, for example once a year. And after the workshop you are also eligible for a second workshop at a similar price point, where we take a look at what you would like to sell.
What would make your heart sing, if you’d wake up everyday to that being your work.

But first we get you sellin’.

Because that is how we show the world where we are, and who we are.

Unconsciously, or perhaps after this post consciously, allowing other people to stand up into their power too.

And become the Rock Star they were born to be.

you’re a performer not a Swiss train conductor | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2024 12 05

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

you’re a performer not a Swiss train conductor

So unless it’s part of your art, it’s not your job.

And if it is?
There’s only one option.

Make it art.

—

The truth is, I don’t have the final version of how artists (in general) are supposed to leverage it all, come 2025.
Where art starts and where it stops and the havoc of commercialism begins.

I do not have a final lecture on how to handle making a living when your work, together with all the other things that give our lives meaning, was never included into capitalism.
And has been passed around like a hot potato from one marginalized group to the next, or from one privileged figure in society to the next, for thousands of years.
Always without a natural home.

So no finalized list, no artist’s manifesto.
All I can say is that, like with many things, the more you know the more you’re aware of how little you know.

Suffice to say, I m sharing the little that I know, while still being aware I will probably need to eat my words again.
And that’s okay.

So artist, performer;
What is it that you do, and why are you not a Swiss train conductor?

The title is a quote from the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. It is what Freddie Mercury says to his bandmates when he’s being called out for arriving late at the studio.

“I’m a performer Darling, not a Swiss train conductor.”
movie Bohemian Rhapsody, “Freddie Mercury”

There is a children’s book by Leo Leonni, about another Freddie, called Frederick.
(video)
It is about a mouse who does not seem to work. When the other mice are collecting food for the winter, Frederick collects colors and sunbeams.

And deep into winter, when the food is all but gone and their tiny bodies are cold from the harsh temperatures, they call upon Frederick.
“How about your supplies?” they ask.
And Frederick starts speaking.

About the seasons and about the sun shining warmly on their furs.

Little by little the mouse begin to feel better, their cheeks rosy and their minds brimming with memories and the promise of better times.

As a performer, your art is everything that enables you to be there, even when the other systems have come to a halt.
And even if that means that in the pre-art phase little is visible, and the people around us may not be as understanding as the mice from Frederick’s community.
Or we less eloquent than Frederick, or Freddie Mercury, in explaining what it is we do.

The moment we start measuring our success (or worse: value) by whether we are as accurate as a Swiss trainconductor, or as productive as the other mice whose lives in the heart of winter will be dependent on whether or not we have nourished our artistic capacities;
That, is the moment we kill our art.

So can we then not be more productive?
Can we not be accurate and reliable?

You can if you make it part of your art.
I don’t know, maybe Frederick could have color coded the stock.
Or Queen could have set up their studio days in a more colorful fashion, around certain themes, fancy dress codes and with guest musicians to collaborate with.  

In the same way you can incorporate activities or areas of life that are difficult to skip or neglect without being an asshole, into your creative work.

Just never forget what you are here for, and what will be needed from you most, is your warming light;
Your bright colors;
Your words;
And your poetry.

Extended!
Originally scheduled to be renewed on the 4th of December, these offers are still up, until this Freddie (Suzanne) feels inspires to create her new offer.

Because she’s not a Swiss train conductor, and it means you can still sign up for:

– Email Mentorship
→ https://catacombenijmegen.com/current-offer/

& The in-person as well as the reduced- (<5PM) rate of THE ROCK STAR

On 4 December 2024 whenever a new cycle starts.
With a fresh but minimalist program offering, leading all the way up to 2034.

signature offer:  The Rock Star 2024

monthly mentoring:
THE COUNCIL

THE ROCK STAR

.
THE ROCK STAR, is Catacombe’s signature 3 hour session.

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.

How big will you think? | final days for these offers

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

“build it to last

Let the work that flows out of you, whatever it is that you do, serving others

Through your art, your ideas, your presence.

Let it come out whole, so that hundreds of years from now its soul is still there.”

quote from:
build it to last | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2024 08 30

——

Current day. 2nd December, 2024.

I must have felt something important was coming.
And although I did not yet know what it was, and part of me still feels uncertain about many many things;
It is here.

And as I understand it now, it will mean that the program change which was already planned to be on December 4 this year, will be a far deeper cut than I anticipated.
Or knew even a few days ago.
One new offer that I already created will never even be brought to light.
And instead of committing to offering these renewed services for 2.5 years – which already felt like a stretch but also daring! –
I will be leaping.

The new services will be available until 2034.
Unchanged, with the exception of an occasional (and announced) price raise.

So this means that as of Wednesday, Catacombe (become the Rock Star you were born to be) will be switching to services that will be available for what I plan on being the remainder of how long I will be doing this work.

After that I plan on wrapping up the Catacombe Rock Star legacy and from 2035 up, to be a full-time writer instead.

I hope you’ll join me on this journey, and maybe like me, you too have the tremendous luxury of time of life….
And you too, will give it meaning, and direction.

But remember the words of Jon Bon Jovi:
“Map out your future.
But do it in pencil.”.

Rock Star Take On CRAFT

The New Rock Star Channel is here!

This week, the second video. A Rock Star Take On FAME

Or watch the foundational video first, from 24th Oct 2024:
https://youtu.be/AQCIWDhaK4E
2 Rock Star Things That Took Me 25 Years To Find Out

Rock Star Take On CRAFT was recorded on 24 Nov 2024

In this video;

– welcome to the New Rock Star Channel 00:00
This is still new to me, but this formerly unnamed series does have its name by now!
“A Rock Star Take”.
This time, A Rock Star Take On CRAFT

– CRAFT explained with my Madonna-inspired start to yoga 01:37
And my journey into business coaching 03:34
But you can apply this principle to any work or skill that once appealed to you.

– The punchline! 04:33

– The unexpected reason CRAFT matters 04:52
Even to mighty Rock Stars who are by default, above it all.

– freedom of craft 07:50
A Rock Star can choose, and re-choose, any craft they want. They are not limited to one area.

– the risk of going Pro 09:32
For a Rock Star, studying and getting certified comes with an unexpected risk!
But a few self-questions can keep you on track.

– What happens if you fail 14:04
The dire consequence of going Pro without first knowing your own Rock Star quality.

– the secret to amazing CRAFT! 15:37
Where captivating, original, urgent art, actually comes from.

– picture the following 17:42
What would happen if you “just” focused on the CRAFT of your Rock Star-ness, instead?!

Next stop, Rock Star Take On
CORE CULTURE!

For which I have to do some research on who to credit here.
But I’ll figure it out, and have a new video for you soon.

the truth isn’t out there | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2024 11 23

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

the truth isn’t out there

Contrary to that famous tagline of the 90s television series The X-Files;
the truth is out there

Detective Mulder also had a UFO poster with “I want to believe” pinned to the wall of his  office.
To believe in the truth, I presume.

But every new discovery only ever lead  to one thing;
Another villain.

Just a bit higher up.

—

I have no idea how much I told you, about everything I did during the pandemic. The years before it, and the years since.
Until I finally hit the brick wall and concluded;
The truth is a dead end street.
All you will ever find is a lie, which is not the same as finding the truth.

The truth, in an evidence based scientific way, does not exist.
There are only those who lie consciously, and those who lie unconsciously.
And although both can be used negatively, they can also both be used positively.

Truth is created by consciousness.
Including the consciousness of the narrator.

So if you find a situation and then tell what you see, you are adding to its existence.
It was mother Theresa who said she would not march against war, but she’d rally for peace.
Because you cannot give something your attention and expect it to go away.

There is a healing technique called Hoʻoponopono, where the practitioner heals by taking responsibility for seeing sickness.
For taking part in it, and by revoking that power and seeing health and healing instead.

Those are examples of what I would define as positive, “conscious lying”.

The practitioner claims something that is not congruent with the truth, as we experience it at that moment. But they have intentionally reversed the truth in order to create the desired effect.
They consciously choose the lie of the affirmation of the positive, in order to create this positive.

Still sticking to positive uses of lying, there is also unconscious lying.
Which can be just as beneficial. 

Here “unconscious” means that the speaker is unaware that they are creating the truth with their words and their thoughts.
And because of that, their most powerful contribution to the world remains hidden, even to themselves.

We all know that person or family, whose house radiates love, laughter and joy;
Yet they claim to not do anything special and that it’s often “a real mess”.

Many of us had or have that one colleague without whom work would have been a dreadful place.
It’s like they alchemize the atmosphere, into one of positivity and constructive cooperation.

Perhaps we have, or had, that special person who infused our life with a deep sense of meaning.

Yet rarely will either one of them be conscious of what it is they do.
They wouldn’t be able to explain and are largely unaware of the profound effect they have on the lives of others.

They do not know their own truth of the light they bring.

So instead of believing in truth, reason, science, or facts;
It is a much better strategy to believe in love.
And to understand that the truth is not out there.
It is within.

Truth can be found within yourself, but also in the hearts of others.
Where like a true treasure it is hidden.

Even from the ones who carry it.

know evil

We cannot escape it, for it is present even in our loved ones.
And, you guessed it;
In ourselves.

It can enter if we leave but one door open. One area, where we allow ourselves the luxury of being in the dark and- BOOM!

For Christ’s sake;
Know what you’re dealing with.

—

I’m not too big on organized religion, but I’ll give them one thing;
At least they know what they’re dealing with.
There is a concept of Evil, something which has been dangerously missing from most spiritual lineages which emphasize union, light and love.

And I get it; If for 2000 years the most sordid crimes and systemic oppression has taken place in the name of the Lord, you’re not exactly keen on taking Christian ideas on board on the nature of good and evil.
In particular not when they can be linked directly to keeping the rich rich, the poor poor, and to keeping everyone not a white male the furthest away from power as patriarchy allows.
Which seems to have unlimited give, in that area.

But just because evil preaches about evil, and uses fear of it for its own gain, that does not mean evil itself does not exist. Nor that evil was ever limited to the people who had so effectively weaponized it.
Quit the opposite.

We must see human history as proof, that evil exists.
The least we can do is learn from history, even if it is just in its most generally-agreed-upon interpretation.

Looking back, and with an endgame against evil sorely missing, it should come as no surprise evil was allowed to endure, in the words of Lord of the Rings.

Perhaps because someone always takes the ring of power before it can be cast into the fires of Mount Doom;
Or perhaps because unlike in folklore, evil cannot be destroyed.

Whatever the reason, now is the time to look around you, or look into history and to judge for yourself;
Do you think Evil was present, during * fill in any catastrophic violation of human rights * ?
If the answer is Yes, then this means this Evil is still present today.

And it is your job to recognize it, and take the surprise out of it! 
Whatever happens on a world stage or whatever happens to you personally, you have already won half the battle if you expected it, because you have done your share of the cognitive reasoning.

It’s like when the dark planet Pluto was discovered in the 20th century;
They had known for ages this planet was there because they had suspected it since 1846 and they had calculated it since 1903, when Pluto was called Planet X. 

An active search began, and in 1930 they found it, and called it Pluto.

I want you to be as unsurprised when encountering evil, as astronomers  were discovering Pluto.
You are like an astronomer whom looking at known data, either suspects or knows for a fact, that planet X exists.

You do not have to go looking for it, but study whatever important historic facts you think are relevant here, and trust your conclusions on the subject.
And if you conclude Evil exists, then you should ingrain that knowledge deeply.

And think about what your strategy is, preferably before Evil comes knocking at your door. But definitely before you dip even one toe into the battlefield.

You should not be treading that lightly, thinking it will not be so bad. 
Not unless you believe every oppressed group in history also had their negative thought patterns to blame for their demise.

In my opinion “just” love and acceptance, is not going to cut it.
Which does not mean that you cannot choose that!
Love and acceptance can still be all the armor you will bring, but like Gandhi, it should be a conscious choice.
If you choose to turn the other cheek, because you have thought it through and these are the principles you live by.
But don’t let it be because you underestimate what you’re up against.

Okay.
So Evil in the modern age?
Do we have a concept of what to look for?
Where to look, where it resides/ its lair, and do we know what its weapons are?

I am by no means an expert, but I have a few pointers which might be useful to get you started and create your own perspective.

Evil is the absence of awareness and/ or consent is being bypassed
and/or the blocking of real connection

And another pointer is that evil comes with a resistance to bring this awareness, to bring light (a conscious decision or reflection) into its darkness.
Evil is darkness that comes with protection towards light.

You can recognize this protection by a quickening in the conversation, a skipping of steps, or (most commonly) a discussion or education about a certain topic starting past/after the point where the foundational decision has been made.

Think of it as the toothbrush trick for children, but now for adults.
“Do you want to use the blue toothbrush or the red?”
And us not noticing the decision to brush our teeth has been taken from us.

Whether this is evil depends on the response when being called out. This goes for systems as well as people.
If their response is irritation, pushback, and denial about their attack on our sovereignty;
Then their behavior is evil.

If they accept being called out, and acknowledge you caught them or are genuinely interested in where they missed the mark;
If they apologize and feel remorse, then no harm was intended.
But beware of the speed of this process!
If it’s too quick and they try to brush over the situation, then they are still evil because they are blocking real connection.

Which is the absolute hallmark of evil!

Anyone placing something in between you and them (f.e. a religious conviction, a judgement about you, a problem you need to solve for them, or a political color) is evil, because they are blocking you from knowing them and are forcing you to deal with their shield.
Maybe it is not that “they” are evil, but their behavior is, and you should be weary all the same.

As part of your defensive arsenal in general, I do recommend having a few of those distracting topics handy for your own protection.
Collect a few viewpoints which will repel people, preferably viewpoints that are authentically yours, but I would be liberal here.
And select on effectiveness over authenticity.
Know what to say, to create distance between you and someone violating your space.

Unless you go for the all love and peace option, but I don’t expect that will be too many of us.

Naturally, the areas people are unwilling to discuss also offer opportunities to weaponize their darkness against them.
Again, this is up for your conscious decision making if you want to go that way.

Remember that there is no awareness in evil.
It is not the act but the very absence of awareness that makes it evil, or that gives evil a doorway to come in. If you believe in dark entities then it is generally believed they hook on into the dark spots. That the more dark spots you have in your awareness, the more things you do not want to talk about, brush over, or are ashamed of, the easier it is for dark forces to latch on, which can be detrimental to you but also to those around you.

Evil entities who are not strong enough to reach people around you directly, can then hurt them through you.
This is when you hear words coming out of your mouth, wondering where the hell they came from!

Whether you believe in these unseen forces or not, the general gist of this first pointer (awareness/consent/blocking connection), and in all probability also of the second piece below, which I will write next, is;
Stay strong. Stay present. Stay aware.
Really show up in full connection with whomever you come in touch with.
And be prepared.

Okay second piece.
This, like the first part, is assembled from several singular points I had noted down. Hopefully being able to combine them into one fluent story.

.

Evil is when fear is brought to the table, when it is unclear who is responsible, when shame is involved

Fear.
Nothing good can come of it.
I know it is very popular to say things like fear being natural, and a protective device, but those opinions are not mine.
And if you can see me going down that road, please push this blogpost 9 November 2024, under my nose! Because I need to read my own words.

So why do I hold fear in such a low regard?
Because first of all you do not think clearly, when you are in fear. So by definition you are incapable of making a rational decision, because your mental capacity has been highjacked by this emotion.
And I will leave it to the experts in neuro psychology to come up with a scientific explanation, but I think I understand the gist of it, and that this claim is correct.
You’re not thinking clearly.
Stop.
Calm down.
And do not do anything until you have mastered your fear.

The second reason you should not do anything when you are in fear, is that your intention, your mindset, your manifestation abilities if you believe in those, are setup wrongly!
Because you’re holding this thing you’re fearful of, and that you’re trying to avoid or move away from, in your mind’s eye when you are making your move in this state. Which will always have detrimental effects.

You must move, decide towards, and act, on what you DO want.
Not panic out of fear.

But the third reason, and most relevant to the topic at hand, is that fear makes you manipulatable. 
All anyone, including evil, needs to do is to touch on your fear, and you’ll vote/buy/do anything to prevent your worst fears from coming true.

The person who is selling you something or informing you on something should never be the same person as the one telling you fearful things.
Because
a. they have a direct interest in you being fearful, because then you buy.
Ask yourself, if this person had not first touched on my fear, would I have bought?
And
b. because fear has cut back your brain power to make a well-informed decision.
So the person who informed you, should never be the one benefiting from your (hopefully temporary) weak position here.
If you want, come back when you’ve done your research and compared other opinions and options.

So someone who FIRST triggers your fear, or even creates an entirely new fear, only to then offer the solution, is evil.

Then the second thing I mentioned;
Fear is when no one is responsible.
Get your red flags out!

This can be a war type of situation where whole areas go without proper rule and the right of the strongest prevails.
But it’s usually a lot more subtle than that.
It is every promise, deal or rejection, that is not made in written form;
It is every situation without someone in charge.
It is everything that is implied but not said out loud.

Is it always evil?
Fortunately no.
If you ask:
“Who’s in charge?”
“What do you mean?”
or
“Will I receive that in writing?”
And someone cooperates, then it has stopped being evil. Whether from having been called out or because it was always all very openly discussed, does not really matter.

But making people take responsibility for what they say, want and need, should definitely become second nature to you.
Don’t give the devil free rides.

And then, finally, to close this blogpost with;
Things are evil when shame is involved.

Intimately connected to the concept of Fear, but definitely the better paralyzer of the two, we have the concept of Shame.
The reason it’s related is because Shame is fear of social exclusion.
The reason Shame is even more effective than Fear, in destabilizing and manipulating people and selling them absolutely on everything you want them to believe, buy or do, is because that fear of social exclusion, is our primal fear.

It’s even a bigger fear than our own physical death, because we know we will all die some day anyway, and the best thing we can hope for is to die surrounded by loved ones.
Exactly what social exclusion prevents.

Shame is fear of dying alone, weaponized.
If someone or something makes you feel ashamed about yourself that thing has got its fangs and claws into you so deeply, you will need Lion Courage to release yourself!
But do it!

I am handing you Lion Courage, Rock Star Courage RIGHT NOW!
YOU CAN DO IT!

Sit with it, let it wash over you, every situation where you feel, as they say that nowadays “cringe”.
Whether it is Shame or its little brother Cringe, take that Lion Courage and bring all of your awareness to it.
Because those are not just doorways where evil can come in, it’s more like the whole backwall of the castle missing.

And now, we are at the end of the blogpost.

It has become so much longer than I intended, and also far more serious.
And still I know I will go about the rest of my day thinking “Oh I forgot this one.” or “I should have said that”
Which brings me to the final characteristic of Evil.

It is the illusion of undoing.

Evil, is Live spelled backwards. It is the undoing of creation, it is destruction in all its aspects including undoing your own writing.
Or altering it.

If we want to become messengers of the light, we must allow the light to work through us. Our human ego must step back and we must let God, or Good, take the wheel.
Just like Evil uses our blindspots to enter, God, or Good, uses where our awareness is.

The best way to fight evil is to amp up on your awareness to its maximum potential, and to stay away from everything that lowers your consciousness. 
Let awareness become your coin, your wealth, your riches.

Your awareness is your light which is not just your protection from evil, but the way you can bring good into this world.

I know it’s not exactly a reputable source, but I think a meme I encountered last week sums it up!

You do not arrive in the New World.
The New World, arrives through you.

Rock Star Take On FAME

The New Rock Star Channel is here!

This week, the first official video.
A Rock Star Take On FAME

Or watch the foundational video first, from 24th Oct 2024:
https://youtu.be/AQCIWDhaK4E
2 Rock Star Things That Took Me 25 Years To Find Out

Rock Star Take On FAME was recorded on 4 Nov 2024

In this video;

– welcome to a new video 00:00
The series wasn’t named yet, which is why you see me not remembering the title.
But I’m gonna name this series “Rock Star Take”.

– recap of the foundational video 01:00

– Rock Star-ness illustrated with the superhero Venom 02:07
An extraterrestrial symbiote, who gives a host great strength. But also great challenges.
Knowing you have a Venom inside of you, is the first step. And the second, is recognizing how it expresses. And how it doesn’t!

– I wanna talk to you about Fame 04:22
Because I have an alternative vision on this.

– The common idea on Fame 04:47
And why people pursue it.

– A Different Perspective on Fame 08:25
As a way to match our outer world, with the inner reality. And to share the load.
Introduced with an illustration of people carrying a lot of inner-conflict, who tend to do the same thing of externalizing their conflict too.

From a Rock Star perspective, Fame allows you to make other people see your powerful Venom Self, you have to live with day in and out.
The world can now see who you really are.

– What the emptiness of Fame is 12:06
And why it doesn’t mean you’re on the wrong path. Just that you ALSO still have to deal with whatever force it was that brought you here.
The outer world acknowledging you, does not replace having to fight your inner battles.
You cannot escape that part of you.

– The movie Venom 3 is now in cinemas 14:20
It can shed some light on what this symbiotic relationship with your inner- Rock Star force really looks like and how to deal with it.
You have to come to terms with who you are.

Next stop, The Rock Star Take On
CRAFT!

perfect your love | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2024 10 27

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

perfect your love

When you have thought it all through and counted the hours you were about to spend on saving yourself, improving the situation, responding to an unforeseen event to make it all right.

Versus the limited days you will have on this earth.

Very little remains, that still needs doing.

—

A few months ago, and inspired by the movie The Crow (1994) and studying its meaning and symbolism for weeks, I changed the graphic design of my Canva posts for this series.

Instead of using a photo referring to the subject I was talking about, preferably illustrated with Rock Star references such people with tattoos, artists, musicians or music adjacent visuals such as a studio or a stage;
I did a 180, and switched to Goth inspired.

Initially I used them in the same manner I had done with the Rock Star photos:
To search for a certain topic in the Canva photo database and insert it into my design.
But soon enough my routines started changing.

The change was sparked when I started to use filters, to give the photos a more Gothic look.
And I do not remember the order in which this happened but soon enough it became a layered process, blowing a photo up, using only certain parts, or selecting other photos to fill up the margins with a background image.
And the gamechanger was finding the Remove Background option.

I completely reinvented it and for today’s Canva I used a total of four Canva photos, all filter adjusted and all with their backgrounds removed.
Resulting in a Halloween appropriate image of a witch doing her magic surrounded by graves and a Crow.
Which ignited this shift, months ago.

The Crow (1994) would not have reached its legendary status without the enigmatic Brandon Lee turning this into masterpiece.
It was his unwavering love for the project, where his dedication inspired the whole crew to bring their best game, why we are still talking about this movie today.

The story itself however, did come with a core element that only had to be preserved, polished and highlighted. Not created.
Love.

The story of The Crow (1994) is the story of undying love.
A love that crosses over into the afterlife, and that has the power to bring back the dead.

And it is a good movie to watch in times of turmoil. Because it makes clear that we cannot influence the evil that goes on in the world.
That evil, in many cases, is too strong a force.

As was the case for Eric and Shelly, the young and very Rock Star couple from The Crow, who got murdered for what was basically a fight over real estate at the highest level in which they had no part except being tenants at a coveted location.
It appears to be a Victorian church, once converted into an apartment building. Eric and Shelly rent the corner top floor apartment, right under the roof. 

They are murdered on the night before Halloween

“which was called “Devil’s Night” or “Hell Night” from the 1970’s through the 90’s, due to the numerous acts of vandalism and violence across the U.S., particularly in the city of Detroit.”
source:
Devil’s Night? Raining all the time? Might as well watch The Crow!

The financial backstory to their murder is shown, not told. We see the murderous gang entering their apartment referring to the complaint the couple made, in a team-up with other tenants in the neglected building.
They stood up for their own rights, and the rights of others.
And paid for it with their lives.

And yet, what they actually stood up for, side by side with the other people in their building, was nothing short of love in its purest form.

Throughout the movie we see flashbacks to the couple in love, Shelly’s wedding magazines, and a little girl Sarah who regularly visits them, finding surrogate parents in them.
The love of the couple has permeated everything around them.

And just like them, we may not have the power to change things. Nor to assess correctly all the evil powers at play.
But we do have the power to do the right thing, and to love the ones around us unconditionally.

Brandon Lee died making The Crow, he was hit on set in a firearm accident. Just like his father Bruce Lee, Brandon died young and under unlikely circumstances that had no clear cause and effect.

And just like the character Eric in the movie The Crow, Brandon had also found the love of his life, and died just before he could marry her.
The wedding had been scheduled a week after filming of The Crow would end.

But again, just like Eric and Shelly in the movie, Brandon Lee had given it his all. His relationship, as well as this movie.
Which he brought to great heights, always striving the best for every scene and for the character.

The intense love Brandon Lee had for his life and his work, is what has survived to this day.
The Crow 30th Anniversary Re-Release Trailer (2024) 

Or, in the famous last line of the movie:

Buildings burn, people die;
But real love is forever.

2 Rock Star Things That Cost Me 25 Years To Find Out
| The Rock Star Channel is finally here!

—

In the week Venom 3 premieres in cinemas, my neglected Rock Your Business channel, gets it well-deserved reboot.
And for very good reasons, because if you too are carrying an inner Venom;
You want to know!

In this video;

– Welcome back to this *to-be-renamed* channel! 00:00
Which at time of posting is still called Rock Your Business.

– The origin story of this channel 00:31
And how my journey unpacking having been a (misfit) Yoga Teacher, meant this channel first needed to be Somewhere In Between It All, and was then settled at “a business channel”
Knowing very well, this would not be the final truth.

– 18 months of Rock Star Work 04:15
Blogging a series called What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today
(For Catacombe, which is the website you’re currently on), has provided me with a lot of insights, on what it is, I had been dealing with.
And what all Rock Stars need to grapple with.

– The Element BEHIND all things we like 06:15
Because when I was under the illusion I liked “Yoga” or “Business”?
It was something else. Someone, else.

– 1998: Madonna bringing me to yoga 06:44
And me thinking this had anything, to do with yoga!

– 2016: A business coach making me fall in love with doing business 08:00
And this was after having been active in that field for 15 years, already.
Spoiler?
The passion I developed in 2016 had nothing to do with business!

– It’s a Rock Star Thing! 11:55
We need to start recognizing (and developing) the power of the messengER.
And not confuse it for the content of the (or our!) message.

– We’re gonna talk about THAT Rock Star Energy 13:40
Not all the possible things you can infuse it to, and which then come to life.
This is the first of the 2 big breakthroughs.
Therefor, this channel will be a Rock Star Channel, from now on.

– You. Are. Venom. 15:25
Rock Star energy is like carrying a separate entity inside of you, just like Venom from the movie. This creature makes you powerful, if you let it express.

– How Venom manifests in traditional Rock Stars 18:35
As performing.

– Understanding Your Rock Star Power 19:27
It expresses differently for every Rock Star.

– The danger of learning properly 19:49
Your Venom Rock Star power is your most precious thing. Don’t stamp it out with rigid rules and regulations. At the risk of losing 25 years!
PUT YOUR Venom/ ROCK STAR QUALITY FIRST

– Know where your Rock Star-ness, expresses 22:12
You can’t just copy the way it manifests in other people.
Recognize in which way, Venom expresses with you.

– Next week 23:45
The new name for this channel will be known.
And I will have the first topic for you, discussed from this new perspective of what it means to be a Rock Star.
You will not have heard this before, I am 100% certain.

Next stop;
Fame!

THE ROCK STAR, is Catacombe’s signature 3 hour session.

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.

build your own church | What Do Rock Stars Need To Hear Today 2024 10 19

Published on by Suzanne BeenackersLeave a comment

build your own church

And let it be a private matter.

Select your divine objects, build the myths, map out the regiment for this sanctuary.
What are its daily practices of wholeness and holiness?

What are the rules upon entering, and how are they enforced?

—

There is a housing crisis in The Netherlands. Like most crises it was off course manmade. Had they continued to build at the rate it was done up until 1990, and (this is where it gets hypothetical) resisted the temptation to sell real estate from public housing associations;
None of this would have happened.

Supposedly, the rise of the number of households was predicted wrongly.
But since predicting it correctly would have involved the government spending more money, instead of saving it like a wrong prediction would, I doubt it was a case of getting the numbers wrong.
And I recently read they were instantly, and in no uncertain terms, warned against the dire consequences of cutting back on building new houses, in the early 90s.
But I cannot find that link so I will just leave it at it being my own not-fact checked belief.

But it is my own not-fact checked belief our current housing shortage is a direct long term consequence of short-term thinking, and more importantly short-term cashing, dating as far back as the early 90s, and continuing to this day.

However, regardless of whose fault it is, it is a fact that a lot of people are living together who do not want to.
Couples who want to get divorced, cannot even get separated.
Students still living with their parents instead of with other students, like was the custom up until the 90s.
Young professionals still living with their parents, and young couples not being able to start their lives together.

Not to mention families who are in need of bigger homes, in order to create privacy and a livable situation where the children have a quiet room for their homework.

And so on, and so forth.

I just saw a movie about the 1930’s, which were the crisis years here, as they were in many parts of the world.
I think the word is individuation; The ability to become your own person.
You need space for that.

In a society with great shortages, people will have a hard time negotiating even the most basic boundaries, let alone feel they have space to grow.
Or, as the title suggest, to build their own church. Even if I just intended that in a metaphorical sense.

And even if we do end up on the right side of the housing shortage, or whatever crisis our country is battling, even then;
Are you actually and actively executing and enforcing who you TRULY are?!
Are you the embodiment of your TRUE values?!

And if, coming back to the title of this blogpost, you are the embodiment of somebody else’s church, somebody else’s values?
I have good news for you;
This works too.
There is no necessity to make up your own church or your own scriptures.

But the problem is, most of us have NONE!
No rulebook or concept about what our set of guiding principles actually are.
And even when we do, wouldn’t you agree we still spend way too much time taking in other people’s opinion and considering angles to problems that are for sure, not authentically ours?

We still waste time and spread ourselves thin, because we have not conceptualized it to a point where an official religion would have effortlessly guided us through.
We’re coasting, flaking, failing and at best Forest Gumping our way forward,  where religion would have us aim HIGHER.
And have given us grid.

You know I’m telling the truth here.

So we know this is not about you and me joining some church, although that is totally fine too.
But this is about taking our own life seriously.

This is about an understanding that any scripture, playbook, set of values, or any daily practice and returning ritual;
That those are when we focus our attention, create intention, infuse awareness, and that will bring it ALL to life.

The understanding that if we would be as committed as religious people;
We’d be crushing it.

So go and crush it.

Build the church that was yours to build, to live the Life that was yours to live.

Amen.
