Hi gorgeous soul,
Thanks for stopping by and being interested to know me a little more. It’s an honour to meet you at this divine time of transition between the ages. Welcome to my story.
Who am I and where do I come from?
I am Shivani (which literally means the voice of Shiva aka the divine) residing in New Delhi, India. As a teenager, I grew up having a diary or a book by my side always. I was the nerdy girl who’d read novels in games period and would write poetry before sleeping. Stories have thrilled me from day one. I have been a very popular storyteller amongst my parents’ friends even when I was four. I was chatty and I loved English classes a lot because of course, stories. I have also deeply been enamoured by picnics and would be a great picnic organizer as a kid and would invite people in with specific dishes on the menu (if that helps for you to correlate how getting people together is MY thing).
Since 2003 when I was 11, I moved to New Delhi and have studied and stayed in New Delhi all my life since then. I definitely agree this is my grid point because believe me when I say, I have REALLY tried to get out of here and have always come back to a path right here. I graduated in Business Economics from Delhi University, concluded it’s not my thing and spent the last six months of my college daydreaming and watching a travel channel obsessively. Umm, so obsessively, that I ended up interning for the same channel few months later. Ofcourse, it was a manifestation. The Universe tried to wake me up in 2013, and I partly heard the call and started my self love journey, but soon got off track. Exactly how I also started meditating with my grandfather when I was 14 but got off track ‘cause it wasn’t cool. Exactly how I read The Secret when I was 19, but got off track because a wish didn’t come true and I clutched to my ego, my half baked knowledge and judged that this shiz doesn’t work!
Wake Up Call
Until in 2016, I sat in my office cubicle, scribbled on my journal sneakily how my life is a perfect manifestation of my dreams and OMG this is it! I am living my dream life. The Secret and Law of Attraction works because I have been saying I want this, and I have it, yay…
And the Universe laughed so hard
And woke me the eff up
To say, “ NO
THIS IS NOT IT.
This is not your dream life.
This peanut salary, this half baked relationships and connections, this job of writing gossip items that you are celebrating right now, NO HONEY! NO!
You are meant for SO MUCH MORE.
This is NOT IT.”
And that was a serious wake up call.
This was when I started doing my spiritual work fully committed to my healing.
My Spiritual Healing Journey
From 2016 to .. well even right now in 2020 as I write this, I have been fully committed to my spiritual healing. At one point, I was doing this work day and night. I have been fully committed to love and accept myself and unlearn all the stories I learnt growing up. I have been working and showing up every day to the spiritual connection with my highest self, the God, the Universe, however, you may term.
I have been consciously healing my inner child, my past lives, my ancestral bloodlines, patterns and lineages as a result of which I was re-introduced to many of my spiritual gifts as my consciousness rose. I have recognized my vision from an aligned space.
I live in 20/20 clarity and it keeps getting more vivid and more clear with every passing day.
I have been releasing all the blocks I have about abundance, love, relationships, my physical space, stepping fully into my authentic self, living my soul mission fearlessly and have been really working on opening my heart more and more to the Universe as I strengthen my faith every single day.
And of course, every single moment of pure unconditional peace, joy, bliss, satisfaction, miracles I experience, I owe it to this healing. Because of this healing, I have been able to take some very bold actions to support my physical life and body. All the spiritual work I did internally invited more physical healing (I joined Yoga, healed anxiety, migraine), financial stability (I was able to charge my worth), more harmony with my connections (I have made some incredible friends and throughout the world along with having the most peaceful connection with my family ever) and much more success and visibility (deeper expression through showing up publically with my gifts + running a soul aligned business).
My Spiritual Journey of Stepping into my Soul Mission
I planted the seed of Dream Life Lounge back in 2014 as a blog meant to explore my writing abilities, then known as The Barrfi. This place, which was originally meant to be a portfolio for my international application to UK universities, ended up being a safe haven for me to explore my connection with my own self while I was living my dream life of being an entertainment journalist and writer.
From 2014- 2018, I explored a plethora of paths until I decided to start an Instagram page as an answer to my spiritual awakening and journey which started in 2016 officially.
I absolutely loved this space because I got to live my alter ego here. Everywhere else I was a usual 20-something lost girl hustling to meet ends. Here, I was free to be my spiritual self, share channelled messages and create a community of souls who resonated with my message.
I lived a dual life for almost two years where I was playing this double role outside and inside. I would sneak time between office breaks to share messages on my page and it liberated me so much.
To an outsider, I was just posting quotes on the side of my freelancing and part-time job.
But of course, it was so much more for not just my own spiritual healing but also other people who were following my page.
In 2018, when I was about to fully dive deep into the digital marketing industry by turning my temporary freelancing career into a real-time business, the universe called me out even LOUDER.
And this is when I realized, this dream that I have, it’s not meant to be lived ONE FINE DAY (which we all know is never), neither it’s meant to be lived part-time, or half baked in any sense.
The Universe echoed – “NOW or NEVER.”
TAKE THIS LEAP OF FAITH.
And that’s when I decided to bid goodbye to my digital marketing career which had just then started to take off. But then here I was, right then, making a choice to leave all the juicy opportunities of more clients, promotion, higher income and a very socially happening life and jump into something totally unknown.
Interestingly, right in 2018, I had bought my first tarot deck The Wild Unknown, haha!
This Unknown was calling me SO LOUD with open arms, I could not, not, say a YES.
And so from there, I cultivated my Instagram page to start showing up with my intuitive messages and tarot readings.
Showing up with tarot cards publicly making youtube videos was a very courageous move for someone like me who has been in the spiritual closet for 2 years now to come out and claim this new way of life when everyone around me was chasing an MBA degree or a promotion or for a few of them, even marriage. I was simply following the universal guidance blindly still not having an exact idea where am I going.
Yet I knew this is Universe’s beautiful way to support my spiritual healing + expansion.
A lot of synchronicities also started happening at this point. I was coming across spiritual teachers, coaches and readers who were doing what I wanted to do and were literally my guiding angels to show me the path one after the other. I was manifesting guidance left and right. And, let me tell you, I still didn’t know what coaching was exactly at this point because umm..let’s admit, most of us Indians know about coaching as far as sports or AIEEE coaching goes! LOL X
The internet has been truly my biggest blessing so far. I fully give credit to my desire to learn because I was soaking in all the spiritual, manifestation, mindset books, videos and resources available online with an extremely open mind and heart. I have pondered on them, questioned them, played with them and hit the several hit and trial buttons to know what works and what doesn’t.
It changed my life. It introduced me to BEAUTIFUL teachers who showed me infinite possibilities to stand up in my authenticity with my gifts – so what if, I didn’t know that coaching is a term I can use to share my gifts too?
I officially launched my tarot services in 2019 and started showing up more consistently with my spiritual knowledge as content and in my sessions. Tarot has been an amazing way for me to connect with my self and really allowed me to go deeper with my clients. For me, tarot was more than a prediction tool and I was almost coaching my clients in the tarot sessions. I don’t think they were complaining either, simply because the spiritual knowledge was overflowing at this point. I had also started writing blogs, making educational posts and videos on Instagram and sharing EFT healing sessions at this point, expanding my community further and of course, meeting so many beautiful people across the world through the work which I was doing.
I also hosted two very interesting in-person workshops in New Delhi where I had beautiful groups of people joining me in and celebrating the path to self-evolution together. These workshops definitely gave me a glimpse of my long term vision. (No really, watch out for Events page!)
In early 2020, I launched my coaching program officially based on EFT practices which was again, so loved and appreciated. I was so afraid if I would get even a single client at the price I was offering because I had never charged that much before but I had these beautiful people find me one after the other almost like a miracle.
Soon, I also launched Conscious Revolution podcast which is a dream come true of someone who grew up watching interviews of celebs and practices speaking. Now in the new age, you know who are the real celebs right? The transformation makers, the coaches, the lightworkers – definitely it’s one of the most exciting things to interview them as well as have an official platform to host my own voice. Like WOW!
With the Pandemic hitting, while people were worried about losing money and jobs, I celebrated my highest income month in April and May and saw my clients bagging jobs and getting promotions. It also got me doing my live workshops online. Brownie points, because it had people from all over the world and to be honest, it turned out just as much fun (and rewarding) if not more.
With these beautiful rewards, I ended up investing more in my self and my business by working with other coaches and doing my rebranding (and so now we call this place Dream Life Lounge instead) and voila! Another new expansive way of coaching is opening up for me as I move my four-week program to six weeks and three months and six months. I am also getting beautiful downloads of new programs and courses which can help so many people on this journey in a deeper way.
DO YOU SEE?
None of this was a plan.
But it was definitely my dream in the hindsight which I CHOSE when I left my matrix life and
The Universe chose me in return.
I was just a fool back in 2016 to feel that being here and doing EVERYTHING that I am passionate about and being rewarded for all of this beautiful freedom is too good to be true. I was settling when it wasn’t even ever written for me in this lifetime!
The possibilities are infinite. The Universe keeps showing me path to highest evolution through infinite exciting opportunities one after the other. I do the inner work, I work with my energy and my mindset which always leads to beautifully aligned actions and every single time, The Universe Has My Back (OMG, give me synchronicity points, I have the book with this title right next to me right now!).
I am constantly evolving and so are my gifts and creations.
I am constantly unbecoming more and more of the light being that I am truly. It’s definitely an honour for meto be here sharing my gifts with you in any possible way that I can.
With a beautiful wild journey of my career and personal transformations in the past seven years, I have let go of the idea of fitting into a box.
Yes, you may call me a spiritual + mindset coach or a speaker or a writer or a channeler or a healer or an entrepreneur, I am all and I am none.
I am a lightworker following my inner divine guidance and my soul mission, always open to infinite miracles in each moment.
I refuse to be boxed into a designation or a niche or even weigh my gifts or awareness by the years of experience or my existence on this planet because the Universe told me
I am beyond the years I have spent on this planet
I am a soul on a mission to evolve and help humanity evolve
And I’ve been honestly, doing this for lifetimes in one way or another
(How I was still writing seven years ago
How I was still coaching when I didn’t even know what coaching was
How I was still preparing working on other people’s new businesses when I didn’t know I’d be working on mine one day?)
My work combines my beautiful spiritual gifts and my very dynamic work experience across the business domains.
My gifts include:
my empathy,
my intuition,
my compassion,
my spiritual/ mindset awareness + knowledge
my healing energy,
my channelled stream of communication,
My eye for detail
My learning abilities (they’re fire honestly, I scan books no kidding!)
My ability to push you beyond your fears in the most loving way
My experience includes:
Publication + Content
Working with startups
Blogging
Social media + Brand management
Digital Marketing
Tarot reading
Eft healing
Public speaking
Public relations
Volunteer teaching experiences
I mean you can definitely go and check me out on LinkedIn if you’re interested in my career path (I have stalked the hell out of people’s LinkedIn when I was looking for my path so it’s legit allowed if you’re in for that!).
But the bottom line is, I am here because I genuinely care about this.
I genuinely care about each one of us living our most divinely delicious highest timeline.
I am here because I have seen the transformation in my life in all ways. I have seen how it feels like to make my own work rules, to do things I am sooo passionate about and most importantly, watch people transform right in front of my eyes.
Someone left a testimonial which said – you gave me wings to fly
And honestly, that’s the most beautiful thing I have heard.
To be honest, I simply reminded her.
It’s an honor to be in a space where I get to hear these beautiful words of appreciation every single day and have my work being so beautifully rewarded.
I know this joy, this bliss, this beauty simply because I have seen the contrast too.
I know how it is like to NOT live these values.
Are you ready to find and live yours? Let’s move this conversation from a monologue to dialogue – work with me! Or hit me up with a message and let’s see how can I help you right NOW!
With all my love, XO
