What if “becoming” isn’t about fixing yourself, but finally coming home to who you’ve been all along? In this tender, expansive conversation, Priyanka Khandalkar traces her journey from overachieving engineer and burned‑out business builder to soul‑led creative, healer, and mother who finally trusts her own voice.

She shares openly about growing up in a toxic home, carrying a deep father wound, surviving childhood abuse, and learning to equate love with performance, over-giving, and people‑pleasing in her marriage, work, and business. When her body, money, creativity, and relationships all started to shut down, a spiritual awakening—through meditation, angel numbers, nature, shamanic work, and ancestral healing—asked her to stop abandoning herself and remember her own power.

We talk about the five elements, sacral and solar plexus healing, and how standing in your worth changes the way you create, lead, parent, and run a company. Priyanka’s story invites every creative who has ever felt “too much,” “not enough,” or out of place to see their sensitivity and imagination as sacred design, not a flaw to fix. This episode is a gentle homecoming for anyone ready to create from wholeness instead of from their wounds.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.980
Dwight: Okay.

2
00:00:02.870 --> 00:00:19.699
Dwight: Hello, and welcome to another edition of the For the Love of Creatives podcast. You've got your Connections and Community Guy hosts. I'm Dwight, joined by Maddox, and today, our featured guest is Brianca Condelcar. Welcome to the podcast, Brianca.

3
00:00:20.230 --> 00:00:26.670
Priyanka Khandalkar: Thanks, Dwight. Thanks, Dwight and Maddox, for having me. I'm so, so excited for what's going to come here.

4
00:00:26.670 --> 00:00:29.860
Maddox: us too! We've been looking forward to this.

5
00:00:30.190 --> 00:00:40.400
Dwight: Yeah, I know that we had a few opportunities to talk just before we got together. It seems like it's been a long time coming.

6
00:00:40.950 --> 00:00:49.839
Dwight: And I know that there are going to be several people that will be introduced to you by having you come on our show.

7
00:00:49.960 --> 00:01:04.919
Dwight: I know that you can do a far better job of giving people an idea of who you are and what you're about, so could you maybe spend the next couple minutes just giving all the creatives an introduction to who Priyanka is?

8
00:01:05.540 --> 00:01:22.609
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, sometimes, like, I feel like which part of my identity I have to bring out here, right? Because we live so many identities, and I would say, if I have to, like, in nutshell, I would say I am an engineer turned entrepreneur turned healer.

9
00:01:23.320 --> 00:01:38.869
Priyanka Khandalkar: turn creatives, like, I think healing and creativity go together. When we heal, we bring back to our truth, our authenticity, and our authenticity is magnetic. So yeah, I'm very much coming from, like, engineering, think, like.

10
00:01:38.870 --> 00:02:01.850
Priyanka Khandalkar: total, like, getting your hands crazy. I was… I used to work in John Deere, where they make those harvesting big combines machine. I had to work in furniture manufacturing. I've worked in all different kind of businesses, but interestingly, why even I got into engineering? But because when I was a child, I used to be always curious. I will be, like, in a bus, I will be looking outside, how that was made, how it is moving.

11
00:02:01.850 --> 00:02:21.230
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, it has been my curiosity who led me to engineering. Of course, I come from Indian background. I'm from India, came to U.S. in 2008, so our parents only gave us two options, engineer or doctor, and my dad is an engineer. So, of course, that also happened in my life, but I always felt,

12
00:02:21.230 --> 00:02:22.840
Priyanka Khandalkar: why I…

13
00:02:23.300 --> 00:02:30.300
Priyanka Khandalkar: thrived in that environment was… it was my… always my curiosity and meeting people from all walks of life.

14
00:02:30.300 --> 00:02:53.420
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, like, just, being the leader without… like, being a leader without a title, kind of. I always embodied those principles and brought the intentional energetic presence leadership, even when I was an engineer, because I was the only female in the whole room of men. So I worked in Volkswagen, John Deere, where they make the cars and everything, so I come from very much that kind of masculine energy.

15
00:02:53.600 --> 00:03:02.730
Priyanka Khandalkar: Maddox and Dwight. And then from there, I, I had few moments in my life, like, I created

16
00:03:02.880 --> 00:03:04.850
Priyanka Khandalkar: different businesses.

17
00:03:04.850 --> 00:03:24.270
Priyanka Khandalkar: different businesses, like, I went into creating rustic furniture from old temples in India, to, like, baby products, to even creating some app for increasing retention of students in, engineering university. That was, like, very much earlier experiences. That led me to, like,

18
00:03:24.270 --> 00:03:30.430
Priyanka Khandalkar: understanding that I'm really good with operations and project management, so I got certified as Director of Operation.

19
00:03:30.430 --> 00:03:48.650
Priyanka Khandalkar: full… like, after that, I left my corporate, like, back in 2021, like, especially around COVID, because I had a little one at home. She was 2 and 3, and I was supposed to, like, travel to all these different manufacturing plants during that time, and I did not feel safe coming back to…

20
00:03:48.650 --> 00:04:01.859
Priyanka Khandalkar: her, and that was my… that was my place. Like, I have been thinking and dreaming of leaving the corporate, but that was my last straw, like, I can't do this anymore, and I left corporate, and…

21
00:04:02.030 --> 00:04:23.079
Priyanka Khandalkar: yeah, I started working as, Director of Operation, Chief Operating Officer for small businesses, especially who are into their authenticity, bringing their purpose out in the world. I worked with a lot of spiritual, people, like, one of my clients, she's still my client, like, I was her… she was my first client back in…

22
00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:34.819
Priyanka Khandalkar: 2020, and now she's still in my… she's still my client in my agency, but that time I was her Director of Operation to help us scale and grow, and she helps people to write their memoir.

23
00:04:34.830 --> 00:04:42.689
Priyanka Khandalkar: by connecting to the land and the ancestors, right? So I connected with a lot of… started connecting with very soul-led

24
00:04:42.690 --> 00:05:01.449
Priyanka Khandalkar: leaders and entrepreneurs helping them to scale and grow. I did that for a couple of years. I also joined Tony Robbins' team, like, I was their student, then I became the coach inside their program, and that also helped, and then I… so, in total, I helped more than 1,200 businesses to scale and grow without

25
00:05:01.450 --> 00:05:03.550
Priyanka Khandalkar: Being, like, what do you call it?

26
00:05:03.620 --> 00:05:09.409
Priyanka Khandalkar: got certified as a coach or anything, it just came into my life, and then…

27
00:05:09.520 --> 00:05:26.990
Priyanka Khandalkar: after doing that, also, podcasts came into my life, too. It was… I was telling you a story. I… during my corporate time, I went to this, Unleash the Power Within big seminar of Tony Robbins, and there, they have you walk on the fire.

28
00:05:27.450 --> 00:05:39.919
Priyanka Khandalkar: that inspired me, like, that was the time I'm like, okay, all this suppressed voice, like, I'm people-pleasing, and… doing… until then, everything I was doing was from… out of performance.

29
00:05:41.270 --> 00:05:55.999
Priyanka Khandalkar: people-pleasing. Like, if I do this, then only I will be loved. If I do this, then only I will be, said, like, I'm good at my work, kind of thing. Like, overperforming, overextending. I still remember I was 8 months pregnant, and I will be…

30
00:05:56.170 --> 00:05:59.490
Priyanka Khandalkar: In the office till midnight, working on stuff.

31
00:05:59.760 --> 00:06:00.769
Dwight: Oh my goodness.

32
00:06:00.770 --> 00:06:14.090
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, I was a workaholic, you can see. So, there's all these different things, but what is the main thing is, like, I… I learned how to build business, I learned how to be the best

33
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:27.130
Priyanka Khandalkar: But, I was burned out, I was disconnected from myself, right? And that's when I knew that this is not the alignment, and I have been always that child who has been looking, or all my life, like.

34
00:06:27.580 --> 00:06:29.580
Priyanka Khandalkar: Never feeling belonged.

35
00:06:30.350 --> 00:06:33.039
Dwight: Oh, so many people feel that.

36
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:33.520
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes!

37
00:06:33.520 --> 00:06:41.230
Dwight: I know, that's certainly a song that I've sung in a lot of my early days.

38
00:06:42.710 --> 00:06:45.459
Maddox: I've experienced that myself as well.

39
00:06:45.850 --> 00:06:46.480
Dwight: Yeah, that's…

40
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:57.739
Priyanka Khandalkar: That's why we are in this room together, because we all align on our values and where we come from. I feel like it's always divine's plan when we, like, it's not about chasing, it's attracting each other.

41
00:06:57.740 --> 00:06:58.200
Dwight: Yes.

42
00:06:58.200 --> 00:06:59.090
Maddox: Right.

43
00:06:59.090 --> 00:07:16.070
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, yeah, I feel like my whole life was attracted to me. I went through different identities, started as an entrepreneur, doing one-on-one work as a consultant. During that time, also doing all this, very creative baby products, but…

44
00:07:16.070 --> 00:07:27.779
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I was also in a relationship with someone with whom I started the business, like my husband, my ex. And, for him, it was always the motivation was money. For me, it was always the impact.

45
00:07:27.940 --> 00:07:37.750
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? So… somewhere down the line, like, I figured out, like, every time I will start a business, like, there will be a little bit of…

46
00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:52.099
Priyanka Khandalkar: motivation to start, but the momentum will go away. What happens after that, right? But it was our two of our energies coming together and not aligning, kind of a thing. So I learned all those different lessons, too, and then from there, doing all these baby products, then I…

47
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:58.680
Priyanka Khandalkar: Went into, my own spiritual awakening in the last 3 years.

48
00:07:59.060 --> 00:08:16.029
Priyanka Khandalkar: And that's when… I feel like before that, everything I did was, like, very masculine, very pressure-oriented, very people-pleasing. But after that, I went into my whole spiritual awakening last 3 years, and, like, connecting to the divine, connecting to the God for the first time.

49
00:08:16.030 --> 00:08:23.199
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, like, just, embodying body-mind-soul alignment. In terms of…

50
00:08:23.320 --> 00:08:30.949
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, truly body, mind, soul, like, how I eat, what I eat, what I breathe, like, everything like that, like, how I even…

51
00:08:30.950 --> 00:08:43.959
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, my menstrual cycle, how I'm aligning with that, working with those energy, like, understanding my cycles are… work lunar cycle, and men cycles work in solar cycle. That's why it's 24 hours. For us, it's…

52
00:08:44.010 --> 00:08:56.799
Priyanka Khandalkar: like the lunar cycle, right? So I work in the… my work has to be divided in that 30 days, like, which part is strategy, which part is visibility, which… so I align with that, even the food I eat.

53
00:08:57.060 --> 00:09:14.119
Dwight: Yeah, you know what? You know, as you're sharing all of these different aspects, and all these threads, and how you're drawing the connections from all of the points in the past, and how they're… they're part of how you are, I can't help but think of how all of the three main pillars that we talk about

54
00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:34.779
Dwight: are captured. Like, everything that you have done has been a journey in your own becoming. That whole spiritual awakening is informed by all of the ways that you were pushed toward being in a very transactional, engineering-type world as a child.

55
00:09:34.780 --> 00:09:39.630
Dwight: And you did very well with it in business, and when you were…

56
00:09:39.630 --> 00:09:48.230
Dwight: When you were married to, your… and I… and it wasn't clear, you were actually a business partner and… and you were married?

57
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:55.339
Priyanka Khandalkar: No, so we came together to do a master's here in engineering, early 20s.

58
00:09:55.340 --> 00:09:55.690
Dwight: Oh…

59
00:09:55.690 --> 00:10:01.249
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, after we did our master's together, we started working in manufacturing.

60
00:10:01.390 --> 00:10:10.050
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? Together. And then during that, so… yeah, so it was more of, like, when we were dating, we were still, like, a student.

61
00:10:10.860 --> 00:10:21.149
Priyanka Khandalkar: And then that turned into, like, yeah, so we are very much engineer, both of us, and… yeah, and then we started businesses together on-site, kind of a thing, with our businesses.

62
00:10:21.150 --> 00:10:30.899
Dwight: Yeah, and it's amazing how your life tended to drift in a direction where you didn't want to be defined by a table.

63
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:43.779
Dwight: Like, you wanted to see things that were real. You wanted to connect with people, watch sunsets, and get into the things that really, really make the juice worth the squeeze.

64
00:10:44.730 --> 00:10:54.949
Priyanka Khandalkar: I would say that, totally, Dwight. I think, yeah, I… and it's… now I know why I am like this. The whole time, I used to feel outlier.

65
00:10:54.990 --> 00:11:09.409
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, I can't even gossip, like, so I used to always feel like, why I am like this? Like, I can't, like, I just can't fit in with anyone, right? So, I always felt like, I am not enough, right? Because I.

66
00:11:09.410 --> 00:11:09.990
Dwight: I was.

67
00:11:09.990 --> 00:11:20.589
Priyanka Khandalkar: to find that validation from outside the whole time. And I think it also comes from the father wound I carried. I come from a very toxic childhood.

68
00:11:20.730 --> 00:11:24.420
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, now I understand, reflecting back.

69
00:11:24.460 --> 00:11:40.989
Priyanka Khandalkar: why I was so masculine, why I was so always, like, performance, performance, people-pleasing, and, like, taking care of things, and, like, hoping in relationship I will get a love back if I give, give, give, give, but I gave so much that I got burned out.

70
00:11:40.990 --> 00:11:50.009
Priyanka Khandalkar: And same in my work in engineering, or, like, just overworking, right? Even that is…

71
00:11:50.100 --> 00:11:56.280
Priyanka Khandalkar: When I talk about the five elements,

72
00:11:56.580 --> 00:11:59.960
Priyanka Khandalkar: The first one of the elements is Earth.

73
00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:01.180
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right?

74
00:12:01.560 --> 00:12:06.849
Priyanka Khandalkar: when Earth is, like, one of the elements of five elements, and when your Earth

75
00:12:06.950 --> 00:12:18.700
Priyanka Khandalkar: is not aligned is when you do… you get overburnt, over-giving. And when that alignment comes is when your foundation is strong. And what does that mean?

76
00:12:18.940 --> 00:12:26.949
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, you can only take your purpose out there in the world if you have a structure to hold it.

77
00:12:27.420 --> 00:12:28.580
Dwight: Right?

78
00:12:28.610 --> 00:12:30.999
Priyanka Khandalkar: And boundaries to hold it.

79
00:12:31.130 --> 00:12:41.590
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, I was, like, totally on the other side, over-giving, burnout by over-giving, right? My grounding was totally imbalanced.

80
00:12:42.130 --> 00:12:43.780
Priyanka Khandalkar: So…

81
00:12:43.780 --> 00:12:45.129
Dwight: from an empty cup.

82
00:12:45.130 --> 00:12:52.310
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, that's why I was disconnected, right? I was disconnected with the five elements, and the way we are…

83
00:12:52.590 --> 00:13:10.170
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, the way… even, like, coming to this planet Earth, like, the Mother Earth gives you everything that you need to sustain and survive, right? But we try to find it from outside validation, even the artificial food, like, rather than getting it from the…

84
00:13:10.310 --> 00:13:19.980
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, if you want to go back to food, because grounding is also about eating from the ground, what comes from the ground in wholesome, right? So I had to embody…

85
00:13:20.260 --> 00:13:26.880
Priyanka Khandalkar: Everything like that, like, changing all my food habits, and then…

86
00:13:27.010 --> 00:13:37.469
Priyanka Khandalkar: Aligning those 5 elements in my business, and aligning those 5 elements in my life to fully embody, to be that leader

87
00:13:37.470 --> 00:13:48.099
Priyanka Khandalkar: Who leads from intention, but also leads from aligning, from what makes her soul happy, and get those butterflies. So, yeah.

88
00:13:48.350 --> 00:13:52.949
Maddox: Priyanka, you're describing a pretty profound transformation.

89
00:13:53.210 --> 00:14:07.150
Maddox: Yeah. And I'm curious, I mean, these happen in a variety of different ways. Sometimes it's this very gradual thing that you work through bit by bit to get to the other side, and sometimes there's some…

90
00:14:07.910 --> 00:14:21.149
Maddox: some epic thing that happens in your life that causes that pivot, that spark. What was it for you that caused that transformation to unfold?

91
00:14:22.760 --> 00:14:27.389
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, I had… I would say…

92
00:14:27.630 --> 00:14:35.120
Priyanka Khandalkar: The pivots happened after I could not take any more the patents that was occurring in my life.

93
00:14:35.820 --> 00:14:53.159
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, since I was a giver, and I was a people pleaser, even if someone disrespects my… disrespects me, or put me down, or made me feel small, or associated my worth with what I was… I was doing for them.

94
00:14:53.160 --> 00:15:04.739
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, because I was a giver, I thought it's normal to sacrifice. I come from a family, and it's not only in India, but it's all over the world. Like, we are raised sometimes to see our

95
00:15:04.910 --> 00:15:12.570
Priyanka Khandalkar: parents, like my mom sacrificing, but not even taking care of herself, right? So,

96
00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:17.939
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I… something came in my mind, I'm just going to say it. When I told my dad.

97
00:15:18.270 --> 00:15:22.599
Priyanka Khandalkar: I am separating. He said, you are supposed to suffer as a woman.

98
00:15:23.680 --> 00:15:24.380
Dwight: Oh.

99
00:15:24.950 --> 00:15:27.470
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, it is also…

100
00:15:27.690 --> 00:15:31.839
Maddox: Okay, Priyanka, how did you respond to that when he said that?

101
00:15:32.350 --> 00:15:36.600
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, his personality, Maddox, is like…

102
00:15:37.130 --> 00:15:45.830
Priyanka Khandalkar: I normally feared facing him, and I think a lot of this comes from all of us, like, our fathers, like, where they come from.

103
00:15:46.030 --> 00:15:51.640
Priyanka Khandalkar: Even if I'm in front of him, I can't even utter a word, because I'm always living in fear.

104
00:15:51.740 --> 00:16:08.269
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? So, this words came to me on my phone, so of course, I can't, like, thank goodness I don't have to face him and do it, because I would have, like, started crying in front of him. Of course, I was crying, but I was… I did not even speak the whole 45 minutes he was speaking.

105
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.500
Priyanka Khandalkar: But he said, no one will come to your funeral.

106
00:16:15.060 --> 00:16:17.340
Priyanka Khandalkar: You are a curse to our religion.

107
00:16:17.640 --> 00:16:18.920
Dwight: So…

108
00:16:19.280 --> 00:16:35.239
Priyanka Khandalkar: when he said all of that, but at the end, this is me telling him about separation after I've already gone through my spiritual awakening in last, I think, 2023, and this was in 2024 when I told him. So, I was actually…

109
00:16:35.400 --> 00:16:53.760
Priyanka Khandalkar: I felt, during that conversation, of course, I felt deeply, deeply hurt, and all those wounds were opening up, those trigger wounds that has been opening up. But then, at the end, after he spoke up, because I know he wanted to get it out, and he is a man of truth, he doesn't keep anything inside, so which is the best quality about him.

110
00:16:53.760 --> 00:17:02.860
Priyanka Khandalkar: He will speak everything that is coming, he is… and that's his way of, like, processing anger, emotions. He will just speak out, and…

111
00:17:02.980 --> 00:17:08.010
Priyanka Khandalkar: That's what he did, and I let him speak out, and after that.

112
00:17:08.450 --> 00:17:13.230
Priyanka Khandalkar: I actually felt supported by my guardian angels that time.

113
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:18.849
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I was questioning whatever he was saying, because I had already done the work on myself.

114
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:27.309
Priyanka Khandalkar: The Priyanka before, unhealed Priyanka, would have been so hurt, would have been… felt so small.

115
00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:33.099
Priyanka Khandalkar: But I think for me, since I have done the healing work.

116
00:17:33.370 --> 00:17:49.119
Priyanka Khandalkar: It was easy for me to process. It did still take me a week to release it fully from my system, right? But I was aware how to handle when someone project their insecurities on me by the time when I told him.

117
00:17:49.440 --> 00:18:01.490
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, your question was… I think this just came in when you said that, but your question was, what was my pivot? I think it was more of, like, the patterns I was saying I could not take anymore.

118
00:18:01.500 --> 00:18:17.040
Priyanka Khandalkar: In relationship, it would be, not honoring me, disrespecting me, not nurturing me, not loving me, associating love as conditional, transactional, right?

119
00:18:17.430 --> 00:18:23.010
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, so… and then, that was one part. Another part was, like…

120
00:18:23.210 --> 00:18:34.329
Priyanka Khandalkar: the pivot happened was, I also went through abuse in childhood, so my… Sacral chakra was totally blocked.

121
00:18:35.020 --> 00:18:40.039
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, like, I felt impure, like, I had never slept, I felt like…

122
00:18:40.280 --> 00:18:44.979
Priyanka Khandalkar: I was always sleeping with nightmare since 6 a year old, right?

123
00:18:44.980 --> 00:18:45.620
Dwight: Oh.

124
00:18:45.810 --> 00:18:46.990
Priyanka Khandalkar: So…

125
00:18:47.240 --> 00:19:10.120
Priyanka Khandalkar: for me, also, like, once I started seeing those patterns, it's interesting, when you go into this Kundalini awakening, spiritual awakening, it's never like… it's just step-by-step, you start seeing angel numbers everywhere, 111444, right? You start seeing different animals, like, I had a moment, I was sitting at a… like, I will normally go for a walk and sit on a river.

126
00:19:10.120 --> 00:19:18.049
Priyanka Khandalkar: I had moments with animals, like deer, or any… some birds, like, just coming and looking at me and sitting with them, so it was also connecting

127
00:19:18.220 --> 00:19:37.640
Priyanka Khandalkar: back to the nature kind of a thing, deeply, not being disconnected. So I think those were some of the indications. So I had to… because I'm a curious person, I had to inquire why this is happening with me, why I'm seeing all this, and then I was totally exhausted. I was 50 pounds, like, heavy.

128
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:41.959
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, because all those emotions from this… so many years of…

129
00:19:42.440 --> 00:20:01.789
Priyanka Khandalkar: making me feel small, negativity around me, all the toxicity around me, that had made me also feel heavy in my body, but heavy in my emotions. Everything was noise, like, there was no clarity coming. And I had learned meditation. I've been doing meditation since 4, so those were always…

130
00:20:01.790 --> 00:20:06.680
Priyanka Khandalkar: Meditation had been always those spaces where I would find my calmness.

131
00:20:06.750 --> 00:20:19.929
Priyanka Khandalkar: In childhood. But I would say the pivot totally happened for me when I seated, saw, started seeing angel numbers, and then after that, I started seeing,

132
00:20:20.130 --> 00:20:21.670
Priyanka Khandalkar: how, like…

133
00:20:21.990 --> 00:20:33.319
Priyanka Khandalkar: the way people are putting their insecurity and projection on me, like, I started being more aware of it, and then connecting all those dots, like, why I'm still in this relationship of shape for 17 years.

134
00:20:33.320 --> 00:20:44.190
Priyanka Khandalkar: And why things are not moving, why my money is blocked, because money is energy, right? Creativity, money, they all are, like, connected, and they all are connected to Sakura Chakra, right?

135
00:20:44.190 --> 00:20:53.310
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, Sakura Chakra, that's where your power is, creativity is, and I was totally blocked there. So, understanding all of this, and…

136
00:20:53.450 --> 00:21:07.560
Priyanka Khandalkar: Thankfully, I joined some of the programs, too, to learn, like, spiritual awakening. I came to know about that, because I think Divine has always a different plan for you to make aware of it, and I… somehow I landed on some videos on tarot, like, on YouTube.

137
00:21:08.120 --> 00:21:15.750
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I felt, oh my god, this is so true, this is how I'm feeling, so disconnected and everything. And that led me to learn more about myself.

138
00:21:15.750 --> 00:21:33.760
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, I would say my life, how it has been, like, all the identities I have lived, like, there was a reason that I had to live those, because those were all my testing time to make me become who I am, to come back to my truth, to come back to my vulnerability, to come back to my authenticity, right?

139
00:21:34.010 --> 00:21:34.940
Priyanka Khandalkar: And…

140
00:21:34.980 --> 00:21:56.480
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, yeah, I would say, Maddox, it was a combination of all that, and then I had some magical moment of, like, coming to this place, Cannon Beach, for holidays with my family, and, they were all having some coffee, and I stepped into this place, it was a, like, what do you call it? That's where I found my teacher, my shaman healer.

141
00:21:56.480 --> 00:22:00.500
Priyanka Khandalkar: She's a psychic and a healer, and I stepped into her office.

142
00:22:00.560 --> 00:22:04.109
Priyanka Khandalkar: This was Labor Day in 2023.

143
00:22:04.180 --> 00:22:07.829
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I told her, I'm not understanding what is happening with me.

144
00:22:08.260 --> 00:22:13.109
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I remember the first thing she said when she saw me, she said, your angel sent you here.

145
00:22:15.010 --> 00:22:18.939
Priyanka Khandalkar: I walked in because they wanted me to walk in there.

146
00:22:19.350 --> 00:22:31.550
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I started working with her, and she helped me to clear all my chakras, getting everything balanced, getting me connected to my higher self, working with my womb.

147
00:22:31.550 --> 00:22:41.789
Priyanka Khandalkar: I remember when I worked with her on my womb energy, my sacral energy, I saw a girl falling off the cliff, and I thought

148
00:22:42.050 --> 00:22:48.910
Priyanka Khandalkar: My daughter… it's probably my daughter, because she was… when I went through my spiritual awakening.

149
00:22:49.120 --> 00:23:06.819
Priyanka Khandalkar: It was at the same time when my daughter was 6, and I had the sexual abuse at 6. It's interesting. My spiritual awakening started at the same time my daughter was at that age, and I thought she fell off that cliff when I was doing that womb energy cleansing.

150
00:23:06.820 --> 00:23:13.140
Priyanka Khandalkar: But it was me, she told me, it was you falling off that cliff, and you rebirthed it that day.

151
00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:20.010
Priyanka Khandalkar: And next day, my daughter was vomiting because she carried that mother wound from my womb.

152
00:23:20.900 --> 00:23:21.940
Priyanka Khandalkar: And…

153
00:23:22.180 --> 00:23:40.710
Priyanka Khandalkar: it… no one understood why she was vomiting so much, but she was purging, she was healing. I hear the generational, that time, the things, the lineage that would be carried through her, and healed everything for my generation before me, my mother, my grandmother, so…

154
00:23:40.990 --> 00:23:43.790
Priyanka Khandalkar: I… I feel like…

155
00:23:44.200 --> 00:24:00.400
Priyanka Khandalkar: all this was part of it, and then when I worked on my solar plexus, that was all about my self-worth, because my self-worth was more connected with my father wound, like, getting all the validation from men in my life. As a child, it was my dad.

156
00:24:00.540 --> 00:24:03.460
Priyanka Khandalkar: Growing up, it was my ex, or…

157
00:24:03.600 --> 00:24:17.149
Priyanka Khandalkar: my bosses at my work, so I had to come into that space also of, like, finding that self-worth and self-confidence, and finding that validation from myself. I remember, like.

158
00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:22.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: Before that, I used to always have different coaches for different things, because I'm always strategic.

159
00:24:22.370 --> 00:24:36.119
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I'm always, like, every month I'm like, okay, where are the gaps? Okay, I need to hire that coach. Get best at it. But after that, after that self-worth and self-worth and finding my worth within me, not from outside.

160
00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:42.810
Priyanka Khandalkar: I came into this space that I am a teacher, I already know what I know, kind of a thing. And…

161
00:24:42.850 --> 00:25:01.410
Priyanka Khandalkar: all these identities was I carried that was to help me to gather all the skills and experience, but now I was integrating more with my intuition, right? It was not just strategy, but bringing my intuition, and my intuition opened when I really started to, like,

162
00:25:01.920 --> 00:25:07.719
Priyanka Khandalkar: Stay in my power, work from my place of my…

163
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:22.810
Priyanka Khandalkar: power which holds in my sacrile, and, like, my self-worth, and bringing all the pieces of me which was fragmented by others, right? And putting a boundary. So hopefully, Maddox, that did answer your question. That went long.

164
00:25:22.810 --> 00:25:27.719
Maddox: It was long, but it was amazing, and I have a comment, and then I have a question.

165
00:25:28.220 --> 00:25:32.980
Maddox: I think, first of all, your story is an incredible story of…

166
00:25:33.420 --> 00:25:35.899
Maddox: This whole story is about becoming a

167
00:25:36.890 --> 00:25:41.500
Maddox: And, yes, transformation, but very much about

168
00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:53.209
Maddox: coming from who you were, or who you believed you were, to who you really are, who you are now. And I think the thing that makes this story

169
00:25:53.350 --> 00:26:00.750
Maddox: really… Like, magical, is that you have clearly… depicted

170
00:26:01.170 --> 00:26:07.069
Maddox: That becoming isn't about becoming something new or becoming something different.

171
00:26:07.080 --> 00:26:21.609
Maddox: It's about coming home to who you are and who you've always been, but lost sight of from the varying different things that happened in your life that distracted you away from your essence.

172
00:26:21.890 --> 00:26:22.680
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes.

173
00:26:22.860 --> 00:26:23.560
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes.

174
00:26:23.560 --> 00:26:33.660
Maddox: Becoming is about coming home, coming back to who you really are, and your story really depicts that. Now, my question…

175
00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:39.580
Maddox: I'm dying to hear how all this has played a role in your creativity.

176
00:26:40.270 --> 00:26:41.190
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

177
00:26:42.110 --> 00:26:48.519
Priyanka Khandalkar: Thank you for asking that, and I knew that it was going to come. So…

178
00:26:48.800 --> 00:26:56.899
Priyanka Khandalkar: I would suggest… I have been always very creative, Maddox. It's just that I was not fully expressing. For me.

179
00:26:57.220 --> 00:27:12.990
Priyanka Khandalkar: creativity in growing up would be, like, dancing, singing, doing art, right? But that was always, always part of me. I have… I'm a professional singer, I learned Hindustani classical singing, I have been dancing on stages.

180
00:27:13.110 --> 00:27:22.719
Priyanka Khandalkar: all my life. I am also an artist, but I'm going to tell you how that has transitioned now, each one of those. So…

181
00:27:23.320 --> 00:27:30.000
Priyanka Khandalkar: for me, it was more of, like, growing up, it's just a hobby, right? Like, that is the creativity part.

182
00:27:30.070 --> 00:27:48.020
Priyanka Khandalkar: Or… but then, when I reflect back, my creativity showed up in problem solving at work. I was really good at problem solving, because I was in quality engineering. So, think about, if someone had a complaint with their car, or something in the manufacturing plant, like.

183
00:27:48.140 --> 00:28:07.949
Priyanka Khandalkar: complaint came in, I was always the one who will find a creative solution, something we have to find in 24 hours, so that we didn't get a loss, because normally, a car in a manufacturing plant, because of the automation, it is made in every 2 minutes. Every 2 minutes, a car comes out of that manufacturing plant. The more I delayed that.

184
00:28:07.950 --> 00:28:18.210
Priyanka Khandalkar: the more cost my company is going to have, right? Million of dollars of losses. So, I came from that very much, very fast-paced.

185
00:28:18.210 --> 00:28:29.939
Priyanka Khandalkar: hustle kind of environment of finding solution, creative solution, bringing people together, and making sure our customers are happy, right? So, I brought creativity there. I also…

186
00:28:30.080 --> 00:28:38.099
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, I was always creative in different ways, but then when all this happened, when I went through my spiritual awakening.

187
00:28:38.370 --> 00:28:46.350
Priyanka Khandalkar: I did do the dance, but I learned new form of sacred dancing. It's a temple dance.

188
00:28:46.750 --> 00:28:56.800
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, recently, and I did different performances, I went to Goddess Temple of Ashland, where goddesses from all around the world are worshipped.

189
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:09.790
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, I was a mother in that dance performance, and it was on the land of her, and as I was walking, people were saying they felt the transmission through my hand movements.

190
00:29:10.380 --> 00:29:20.780
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, as if the mother goddess was there. So it was like, my dancing has come to that place, and then recently I was part of this She Rose…

191
00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:32.699
Priyanka Khandalkar: it's like a whole, like, crew, like, we did performance… like, they did performances all over the US, but I was part of their dance crew when I was in Portland.

192
00:29:32.830 --> 00:29:33.850
Priyanka Khandalkar: And…

193
00:29:34.360 --> 00:29:47.930
Priyanka Khandalkar: it is interesting, the song I danced on, and it was a live, so the singer, Maria Stark, I love her songs, and she was singing live, and it was the song, The Voice of the womb.

194
00:29:49.350 --> 00:29:56.520
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I performed on that. So now my art and creativity, if you go back to dancing, is more of, like.

195
00:29:56.650 --> 00:30:16.170
Priyanka Khandalkar: coming back to that power, the womb energy, like, bringing her back out. For me, like, dancing is like a meditation. I go into my own space, and I create from there. For singing, like, I started… I have been performing on stages, but now it's more of, like.

196
00:30:16.440 --> 00:30:29.279
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, my voice was always out there, but I know during the spiritual awakening, it got totally blocked. I had to pause my podcast for, like, 3 years, 3 to 4 years, because I could not even come and speak.

197
00:30:29.370 --> 00:30:38.739
Priyanka Khandalkar: Because I was going through everything so much blocked. But now I'm back out there, my podcast is again started, and I'm so proud of it, but…

198
00:30:38.740 --> 00:30:52.539
Priyanka Khandalkar: For me, that crea- before my podcast, if you listen, it is more strategic, with questions, but now it's more, like, flowing, and it's more like what is coming, and it is more of, like, aligning with your soul essence.

199
00:30:54.120 --> 00:31:12.830
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I would say this also changed into how I coach business now, because I'm a business coach, right? So, I just… when I… when I work with businesses, I tell them, it's not… of course, we have all these best practices, and this is what you need to do in marketing, this is how you need to do sales.

200
00:31:12.830 --> 00:31:20.620
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, I can tell them everything, like, I can audit and do that, but now I bring them, like, who are you?

201
00:31:21.010 --> 00:31:28.209
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? Your personality… You're… you… you are the brand.

202
00:31:28.230 --> 00:31:47.780
Priyanka Khandalkar: You are the business, right? Are you bringing your truth, authentic self, right? So now my… now the way I run my business is how I, teach my clients to run their business. Now I have a… I also attracted

203
00:31:47.780 --> 00:31:56.229
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, my… now I have an agency, it's called Synergy, and that was also created during this whole spiritual awakening in 2024.

204
00:31:56.230 --> 00:32:13.570
Priyanka Khandalkar: That was even… when it was created, it was not something I had to hire and go out to people and find. They got… my whole team got attracted to me. Every team member in my team are spiritually-led members. Like, they're spiritually soul-led. Like, one of them has a…

205
00:32:13.690 --> 00:32:31.710
Priyanka Khandalkar: crystal store with coffee shop in Philippines, and she does healing there, like, sound healing. One of my other persons, they do bar kind of healing modality. Other person who is, like, and they are from all different religions, Buddhism, Muslim, Christianity, everyone, right? So…

206
00:32:31.790 --> 00:32:38.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, when I created my company, the first department I created was wellness, because what I saw…

207
00:32:38.820 --> 00:32:43.949
Priyanka Khandalkar: the employees from third-world countries like Philippines are exploited.

208
00:32:44.760 --> 00:32:55.919
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? By Western, or, like, they think it's a lower label, so they exploit. So for me, the wellness, like, I pay them really good, right? I pay them equal to what a person…

209
00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:08.330
Priyanka Khandalkar: in U.S. will be paid, kind of a thing. So… That's amazing. I… so I have, like, I honor each one of them, but I'm also a mother bear, and mother bear for my team, I will protect them.

210
00:33:08.330 --> 00:33:23.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: But they do healing events for each other, like, Synergy has healing events in Philippines, and they are doing those healings together. So I would say my creativity now is also embodied in how I integrate the pieces of

211
00:33:23.270 --> 00:33:39.159
Priyanka Khandalkar: bringing that creativity, your intuition, your strength, your authenticity, your truth, your voice, your embodiment, leadership, into how you do your business, to create a very powerful, impactful, sustainable business. So…

212
00:33:39.340 --> 00:33:52.669
Dwight: And if I'm hearing you correctly, what you're doing in Synergy is bringing together something that normally we think of as being rooted in the transactional world.

213
00:33:52.750 --> 00:34:01.519
Dwight: And you're making it incredibly relational and sustaining. It's also a source of community.

214
00:34:01.950 --> 00:34:05.619
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes, it is source of community, Dwight, and…

215
00:34:06.340 --> 00:34:11.789
Priyanka Khandalkar: For me, my team is not a number, and my client is not a number.

216
00:34:12.270 --> 00:34:18.430
Priyanka Khandalkar: And the most important part… that I think I did mention.

217
00:34:19.020 --> 00:34:22.169
Priyanka Khandalkar: One of the five elements is ether.

218
00:34:22.370 --> 00:34:31.010
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? I was not connected to my ether, I was not connected to my ancestor, my divine, the universe, the guidance.

219
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:50.360
Priyanka Khandalkar: And that was also part of my spiritual awakening journey, to be in stillness, because if you are not in stillness, you're working from reactive mode, chaotic mode, noises, you let distraction guide you, and there are too many things to distract us in today's world, right?

220
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:53.079
Dwight: Yeah, and it seems like there's another one every day.

221
00:34:53.080 --> 00:34:54.000
Priyanka Khandalkar: Every day, right?

222
00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:55.449
Dwight: But then…

223
00:34:55.489 --> 00:35:04.339
Priyanka Khandalkar: Stillness is where… the creativity is born from. For me, my most creative ideas…

224
00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:21.379
Priyanka Khandalkar: Even if I feel dis… let's say if one of those five elements I'm not honoring, let's say I'm not drinking enough water, which is related to your flow, your intuition, creativity, like, that blocks my creativity, and then I have to go back drinking water, right?

225
00:35:21.380 --> 00:35:22.290
Dwight: So…

226
00:35:22.290 --> 00:35:37.309
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, when it… and then I know why I'm disconnected. It's one of these five elements I'm not doing, and sometimes that happens. Life happens. I have multiple businesses I'm growing, and this is a healing center I just opened, too. That's also part of my creativity. Like, so Maddox,

227
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:55.570
Priyanka Khandalkar: I want to, like, make sure I'm in the topic, because I can go so many places. But yeah, like, of course my business got started, like, my business was attract… like, it was a vision on my vision board in 2021, but it took 4 years of me becoming that person.

228
00:35:55.590 --> 00:36:03.060
Priyanka Khandalkar: To even have a synergy, right? And now I have a team of 9, and which is going to grow more.

229
00:36:03.220 --> 00:36:05.690
Priyanka Khandalkar: So… Yes.

230
00:36:05.690 --> 00:36:06.660
Dwight: It seems like.

231
00:36:06.910 --> 00:36:07.610
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

232
00:36:07.610 --> 00:36:08.380
Maddox: Go ahead, Dwight.

233
00:36:08.380 --> 00:36:15.450
Dwight: It seemed like you… you had such a drive, and so much of what you… what…

234
00:36:15.930 --> 00:36:22.559
Dwight: formed the way that you moved about in the world as a little girl. That engineering energy.

235
00:36:22.560 --> 00:36:23.100
Priyanka Khandalkar: Hmm.

236
00:36:23.100 --> 00:36:40.819
Dwight: It's something that you could carry along with you, even when you were attracted to doing things that were more spiritual, more soul-led. And you were able to draw from the old identity

237
00:36:40.820 --> 00:36:45.520
Dwight: To pour into getting the most out of the new one.

238
00:36:45.690 --> 00:36:46.260
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes.

239
00:36:46.260 --> 00:36:49.389
Dwight: And for there to be that kind of a…

240
00:36:49.770 --> 00:36:53.710
Dwight: rate of growth. I mean, we're talking not even 5 years.

241
00:36:53.710 --> 00:36:54.280
Priyanka Khandalkar: Hmm.

242
00:36:54.280 --> 00:37:01.120
Dwight: Right? It's… seems phenomenal. It makes me wonder… what would…

243
00:37:02.050 --> 00:37:05.489
Dwight: Where do you see yourself in the next decade?

244
00:37:06.060 --> 00:37:10.539
Priyanka Khandalkar: Oh. I already had the vision of it when I was in Sedona.

245
00:37:11.040 --> 00:37:17.970
Priyanka Khandalkar: I saw it in my meditation, and… I also went to…

246
00:37:18.340 --> 00:37:23.540
Priyanka Khandalkar: Maui, Hawaii, where I was 500 years back in my past lifetime.

247
00:37:24.260 --> 00:37:30.230
Priyanka Khandalkar: I went to each of those spots where I used to heal people.

248
00:37:30.980 --> 00:37:34.220
Priyanka Khandalkar: I also carried the energy of

249
00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:41.869
Priyanka Khandalkar: being the, chief test? What is that? Chieftess? Chief? Chief and chieftess. What is that term?

250
00:37:43.100 --> 00:37:52.650
Priyanka Khandalkar: She's… they are also the king and queen, but during that time, I was the chieftess for part of this tribe, and I was also part of the…

251
00:37:53.370 --> 00:38:05.900
Priyanka Khandalkar: the union, bringing all the tribes together, and bringing Maui together. So, for me, like, that journey with my shaman healer, and she has been in my life

252
00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:10.500
Priyanka Khandalkar: million and million of years, like, we reincarnate.

253
00:38:10.500 --> 00:38:26.400
Priyanka Khandalkar: She comes back as a teacher, she has been always my teacher. We have also lived in different planets as aliens, so when she tells me all these different things, but I think for me, when I went to Maui, Hawaii last year.

254
00:38:26.500 --> 00:38:32.620
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, I knew all of this, like, before that I went to Sedona, I saw a vision where I'm going.

255
00:38:32.780 --> 00:38:39.919
Priyanka Khandalkar: But in Maui, that all came together, because as I was in there, I first time felt belonged.

256
00:38:41.410 --> 00:38:42.660
Priyanka Khandalkar: toward land.

257
00:38:42.980 --> 00:38:58.359
Priyanka Khandalkar: I did not even want it to leave that place. I was so connected with her, I was crying, I was, like, with her, touching her, walking with her, even, I remember instance, like, as I was walking, a huge mango fell down.

258
00:38:59.110 --> 00:39:05.989
Priyanka Khandalkar: And one of my favorite pearl earrings my mom had sent from India, it's from Pearls from India.

259
00:39:06.190 --> 00:39:07.880
Priyanka Khandalkar: I had lost it.

260
00:39:08.180 --> 00:39:15.149
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I was like, oh no, I don't want it to lose, and as soon as I said, a big mango dropped.

261
00:39:15.390 --> 00:39:21.899
Priyanka Khandalkar: And that was divine, okay, this is your gift. You're supposed to give me a gift, I'm giving you back a gift.

262
00:39:22.500 --> 00:39:29.320
Priyanka Khandalkar: I had all those moments, but I went… when I went to the Maui, and there's this beautiful waterfall, I took…

263
00:39:29.570 --> 00:39:34.490
Priyanka Khandalkar: I just went underneath it, and as I came out of that water, I felt…

264
00:39:34.830 --> 00:39:49.080
Priyanka Khandalkar: the mother energy through me, like, the goddess energy through me, like, whatever you want to connect it with, but I felt so powerful, I felt so grounded, I felt I'm here for bigger impact, and that's why…

265
00:39:49.210 --> 00:40:04.540
Priyanka Khandalkar: This place, this healing place we created with my, mentor, my shaman healer, it's called Crystal Cove Boutique. It's in Cannon Beach. It's next to the Haystock Rock. Do you… are you aware of that, Dwight and Maddox?

266
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:05.350
Maddox: I'm not.

267
00:40:05.960 --> 00:40:20.540
Priyanka Khandalkar: No? So, Haystock Rock, it's like a huge mountain in the middle of the ocean, kind of a thing. It's just, like, 2 minutes walk from here, not middle of the ocean, it's, like, on the beach. Like, you can walk during the low tides, you can go and go closer there.

268
00:40:20.560 --> 00:40:26.190
Priyanka Khandalkar: But it was made 15 million years back by volcano.

269
00:40:26.530 --> 00:40:41.649
Priyanka Khandalkar: And it is very ancient, and it has a very strong spiritual vortex, same as Sedona, when I visited there in 2023. So this healing center is just, like, 2 minutes away from this haystock rock.

270
00:40:41.900 --> 00:40:51.469
Priyanka Khandalkar: And, this healing center was actually created for souls to come and find their life purpose, and connect with their soul purpose.

271
00:40:51.740 --> 00:41:00.349
Priyanka Khandalkar: As I am connecting to that, and I am actually integrating and learning, like, more of plant medicine now.

272
00:41:01.090 --> 00:41:12.720
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, that is… and I feel like my journey of spiritual awakening, like, I never used to even cook before, I used to be scared because it never used to, like, taste like my mom.

273
00:41:12.720 --> 00:41:29.149
Priyanka Khandalkar: there was other people's voices was in my head, that I'm not a good cook, I'm not a good this, and I come from a family, like, in India, like, moms, like, they are the best cook, like, they… everything is made from scratch, I never even went out to eat, like, I always ate at home, and I always felt nourished.

274
00:41:29.150 --> 00:41:31.390
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I was always trying to, like.

275
00:41:31.530 --> 00:41:43.530
Priyanka Khandalkar: connect the food by, like, it doesn't taste like my mom. So, for me, in this last 3 years, like, I started doing Sattvik diet, which is more yogis and Ayurveda diet, which is supposed to calm your body, calm…

276
00:41:43.530 --> 00:41:53.470
Priyanka Khandalkar: So it's good for, like, its body-mind-soul alignment. So I started doing that in… back in 2023. So, I integrated plant medicine like that in my own life.

277
00:41:53.470 --> 00:42:18.439
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I started doing so many holistic peas, and it comes effortlessly to me. I love it! The taste… the food tastes so heavenly, right? And I don't eat garlic or onion, like, because they actually stop your spirituality, it makes you lethargic, so those are not good to eat. It's part of the sattvik. And normally, if you think about Indian food, like, onion, garlic, part of it, so I had to get rid of all of that, like.

278
00:42:18.440 --> 00:42:36.640
Priyanka Khandalkar: now I only put ginger and all the spices. But it was slowly integrated to me, and then I came to my learning that I will be doing plant medicine, and now I'm learning more about that. We will be growing our plant. But it's all about, as you were saying, Maddox, it's… and Dwight, like, it's all about going back to my roots.

279
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:55.740
Priyanka Khandalkar: going back to where we come from, like, getting all, like, preparing my food from scratch, everything. It takes ages for it to get done, right? It's not a quick fix. Before, I was like, quick fix, eat meal bar quickly, right? In between meetings and all that, but now I'm so, so, so intentional.

280
00:42:56.170 --> 00:43:00.539
Priyanka Khandalkar: and I take action which are more aligned from that intention.

281
00:43:02.090 --> 00:43:05.889
Maddox: Pranca, I just want to say, I absolutely love how open you are.

282
00:43:06.200 --> 00:43:16.590
Maddox: You know, we do this weekly, and we certainly have attracted a broad variety of people who tend to be very open

283
00:43:16.690 --> 00:43:32.710
Maddox: But you have said things today and talked about things that people don't… people will talk in a closed place about, you know, in a private place. But to be on a podcast where it's going out for the whole world to hear, you've talked about…

284
00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:43.100
Maddox: You know, past lives, and reincarnation, and different universes, and so many things that…

285
00:43:43.460 --> 00:43:53.919
Maddox: so many people would just scoff at, you know, and deem, you know, whatever. And I just love that you…

286
00:43:54.150 --> 00:44:10.799
Maddox: are really available to talk about that in a public place where… with no regard to what anybody thinks. I get it completely. I can feel that energy coming off of you. This is my life, don't like it. Sorry, tough for you.

287
00:44:11.070 --> 00:44:18.539
Maddox: But, you know, you've eliminated so many things today. You know, I want to call out for the listeners

288
00:44:18.730 --> 00:44:31.949
Maddox: That you painted an absolutely beautiful… with a broad brush, you painted this really expanded definition of creativity.

289
00:44:32.220 --> 00:44:37.320
Maddox: And we listen to people all day, every day, and we find some people's

290
00:44:37.890 --> 00:44:47.149
Maddox: definition of creativity is so small, and it's so tight, you know? And so many people say, I'm not creative, because they don't paint.

291
00:44:47.150 --> 00:45:00.110
Maddox: or sculpt, or do something. They don't craft, they don't… and that's crea… that's their definition of creativity, and you so beautifully, you expanded it into dance, and music, and cooking.

292
00:45:00.110 --> 00:45:03.050
Maddox: and even… Business.

293
00:45:03.230 --> 00:45:03.960
Dwight: Yes.

294
00:45:04.570 --> 00:45:05.429
Maddox: You know.

295
00:45:05.430 --> 00:45:05.900
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

296
00:45:05.900 --> 00:45:12.369
Maddox: Problem solving, and all the ways that you bring people in business together, and…

297
00:45:12.760 --> 00:45:27.279
Maddox: You know, I kind of feel like if you have an imagination, and we were all born with imagination, if you don't have one now, it's because you lost track of it, and she's telling you exactly how to get back. But if you have an imagination.

298
00:45:27.540 --> 00:45:29.319
Maddox: You are creative.

299
00:45:30.150 --> 00:45:30.780
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

300
00:45:30.780 --> 00:45:35.740
Maddox: Hands down. No two ways about it. If you have an imagination, you are creative.

301
00:45:36.780 --> 00:45:45.469
Maddox: I love that. You brought that full circle for us today in other words, you know, without saying it as

302
00:45:45.890 --> 00:45:54.420
Maddox: bluntly as I did, you created the story, and then I summarized the story, but you created this beautiful story that was about…

303
00:45:54.590 --> 00:46:00.680
Maddox: How creativity is in everything we see, everything we touch, everything we do.

304
00:46:00.870 --> 00:46:02.429
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah. Andy.

305
00:46:02.430 --> 00:46:05.280
Maddox: Intentionality, I love your intentionality.

306
00:46:05.830 --> 00:46:12.039
Priyanka Khandalkar: So beautiful. Yeah, I… and I was telling you, as I… before even I stepped into this…

307
00:46:12.670 --> 00:46:20.880
Priyanka Khandalkar: before I even stepped into this space with you all, I put an intentionality into what I'm bringing, right?

308
00:46:21.060 --> 00:46:24.639
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I also surrendered to what will be coming.

309
00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:37.420
Priyanka Khandalkar: And surrender it to the God, the universe, like, divine, our guardian angels. We… each one of us have guardian angels, which are in 4D, we are in 3D, and then the 5D is where our…

310
00:46:37.800 --> 00:46:49.489
Priyanka Khandalkar: ancestors are, who are also guiding us. So, we need to… it's very important to know that sometimes creativity can be a very lonely, right?

311
00:46:49.930 --> 00:47:04.090
Priyanka Khandalkar: But you need to know that you are never alone. You are all… you always have this invisible hand holding you, backing off millions of ancestors behind you, right? They're just…

312
00:47:04.190 --> 00:47:18.089
Priyanka Khandalkar: behind, like, they are your back. Like, when everyone leaves you, right now, my circle is like a dot. It's not even a circle. Because of everyone I have cut off, because of all my boundaries and what I don't expect, accept anymore.

313
00:47:18.090 --> 00:47:25.819
Maddox: See, that's part of the becoming, too, you know? When you became your true self, there were people that had to just fall away, didn't they?

314
00:47:26.060 --> 00:47:32.890
Priyanka Khandalkar: Oh yeah, they can't… they can't accept this new version. They're still holding on to my old version. Well, and I'.

315
00:47:32.890 --> 00:47:36.960
Maddox: I'm curious, is your dad one of the people that had to fall away?

316
00:47:37.300 --> 00:47:42.020
Priyanka Khandalkar: No, so it's beautiful. Now he's in more of a energy of…

317
00:47:42.630 --> 00:47:55.370
Priyanka Khandalkar: I think there's some part of him, like, guilt, kind of a thing, because you remember that call I did? That was my first time telling him, you did not even protect me when I was 6 years old.

318
00:47:55.560 --> 00:47:59.070
Priyanka Khandalkar: When I went through this sex abuse, right?

319
00:47:59.960 --> 00:48:14.360
Priyanka Khandalkar: I… that's when he came to know, like, at… when, like, to… this year I will be turning 40, so, like, that's, like, 39. For 39 years, he did not even knew. But I said, you were not there to even protect me. And…

320
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:19.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: I think for him, after that, he has softened.

321
00:48:21.300 --> 00:48:28.839
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes, soft turn, but he also came last year, my parents came here for 6 months from India, he's retired.

322
00:48:28.840 --> 00:48:43.440
Priyanka Khandalkar: He's also, like, exceptionally amazing, like, retired, exceptionally amazing in what he does and all that stuff. But he came last year for 6 months, and it was amazing for my mom to, like, pamper me, love me, I ate all the yummy, yummy food!

323
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:51.729
Priyanka Khandalkar: But my dad saw all of me, and he wanted to have some closure with my ex, and my ex did not even want it to meet him.

324
00:48:52.510 --> 00:48:53.790
Priyanka Khandalkar: So…

325
00:48:54.070 --> 00:49:09.059
Priyanka Khandalkar: he… once he came to know, he did his own research, because I am… I am… I am exactly, somewhat, like, I also have this trait of my dad being curious, like, knowing my facts, and going out there, learning.

326
00:49:09.290 --> 00:49:26.959
Priyanka Khandalkar: he can't go in too extreme, very spiritual, know everything. He says, I don't even need to read a book, I know the book by… from the cover, like, what is in there. He's like that kind of person. He's… he has knowledge, so much knowledge of spirituality, religion, and everything. And the other extreme is super anger, right?

327
00:49:27.140 --> 00:49:28.320
Priyanka Khandalkar: So…

328
00:49:28.640 --> 00:49:40.459
Priyanka Khandalkar: for him, it was more of, like, he went back to many different astrologers, because in India, we have birth chart. Have you… do you… are you aware of it, Dwight and Maddox? Okay. So, when we are born.

329
00:49:40.460 --> 00:49:51.220
Priyanka Khandalkar: When we are born in India, normally, our birth chart is made, made of, based on your date of birth, time of birth, and it's, like, all the star location. It actually tells you.

330
00:49:51.220 --> 00:49:52.180
Maddox: chart, yes.

331
00:49:52.180 --> 00:49:57.410
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, it tells you, like, how is your, like, life is going to be, okay?

332
00:49:57.540 --> 00:49:59.120
Priyanka Khandalkar: And,

333
00:49:59.620 --> 00:50:11.409
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, like, eventually, he spoke to my ex, of course, on phone, and then he went out, and I… he looked into Birchar. Normally, in India, we still have arranged marriages.

334
00:50:11.440 --> 00:50:29.479
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, before the arranged marriage happens, they look at the birth chart of bride and groom, and they match. Mine was a love marriage, so we did not even do that. My dad assumed his parents did it, but they don't believe in it, so they did not do it. My dad went back to checking it, and he said.

335
00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:39.150
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, normally, you're supposed to have 36 points matching, okay? Anything about 30… 30 or 32 is good. Ours was only 4 points matching.

336
00:50:39.620 --> 00:50:44.269
Priyanka Khandalkar: He said, how even you guys made baby? There's no intimacy.

337
00:50:44.990 --> 00:50:46.030
Maddox: Wow.

338
00:50:46.030 --> 00:50:51.930
Priyanka Khandalkar: It's like how your baby was, because there was no physical, no spiritual, no mental, no emotional.

339
00:50:51.930 --> 00:51:09.819
Priyanka Khandalkar: So he had to dig in, because I will not give him what he needs. Like, I will tell… like… like, he wanted to know the reason for me, so I did tell him a little bit here and there. He wanted to know some reason for my ex, I'm sure he told something, but he had to go into his own journey, why my daughter's journey became like this.

340
00:51:10.070 --> 00:51:25.610
Priyanka Khandalkar: So he went with many different astrologers, because not every astrologer is good. You have to find the best one who can read those charts well. And he found out the answer, and then he came back with that, and then I validated, yes, that was true. I'm not going to tell my dad, like.

341
00:51:25.660 --> 00:51:31.389
Priyanka Khandalkar: we did not have intimacy. Like, that's not a culture I come from, like, we don't speak all of that. So…

342
00:51:31.520 --> 00:51:40.279
Priyanka Khandalkar: He had to tell me, I had to validate, and then now he can connect all the dots, and now I feel… and my… interestingly, I'm going to tell you another thing.

343
00:51:40.600 --> 00:51:58.639
Priyanka Khandalkar: Of course, they were here 6 months, they went back, and my divorce, I was still part of going through my process. Interestingly, my life is so divine-led. My divorce happened last December on the last portal of that year, which is December 12th, 12-12.

344
00:51:58.950 --> 00:52:00.640
Priyanka Khandalkar: Without my signature.

345
00:52:02.370 --> 00:52:03.400
Maddox: Without what?

346
00:52:03.400 --> 00:52:04.780
Dwight: Without their signature.

347
00:52:04.780 --> 00:52:05.270
Maddox: Oh.

348
00:52:05.270 --> 00:52:06.840
Priyanka Khandalkar: Without my signature.

349
00:52:07.260 --> 00:52:26.879
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, the court approved, so I was like… and in mourning, I was let go from Tony Robbins' event, also. So, there were two different things happened on same day for me, and I sat with it. I was in my bed the whole time, I was processing all the emotions going through me. Of course, some self-doubt also came, because I'm still a human, right?

350
00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:41.870
Priyanka Khandalkar: Maybe I was, like, I was trying to figure out all the different things, like, like judgment, right? Those comes in. What must be happening? Why this happened? Why I was let go of a team, like, I am so good at, like, I… like, I love my clients, like, everything.

351
00:52:41.870 --> 00:52:59.940
Priyanka Khandalkar: But there were events that happened after I moved to this space in November, like, it has… I have big, big amethysts here, I have so many crystals here, and the energy of Haystock Rock. Lot of things happened around here that led into, like… you remember I was telling you I had an internet issue, Dwight? Lifestyle?

352
00:52:59.940 --> 00:53:01.050
Dwight: Yeah, yeah, I remember.

353
00:53:01.050 --> 00:53:05.830
Priyanka Khandalkar: That week, we had floods, we had high tides, no internet, I was…

354
00:53:05.830 --> 00:53:22.360
Priyanka Khandalkar: helping more than 200… 120 to 200 students with Tony Robbins, like, one-on-one coaching, and I had to cancel, postpone, and then some of them I had to cancel because I can't even connect with them during the call. And, like, the whole practice, that happened in one week, everything.

355
00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:32.879
Priyanka Khandalkar: I had to move so many meetings, the management got fed up of it, they did not even get intentional about it, and they let me go, and I was shocked. And then in afternoon, I come to know from my ex.

356
00:53:33.730 --> 00:53:35.310
Priyanka Khandalkar: that,

357
00:53:35.600 --> 00:53:51.779
Priyanka Khandalkar: yeah, divorce happened without my signature. Now I'm figuring out my whole visa situation to live in U.S. near my daughter, but it's just, like, a lot of things in my life has been the worst anyone wants to go through.

358
00:53:52.170 --> 00:53:52.580
Dwight: Hmm.

359
00:53:52.580 --> 00:54:09.350
Priyanka Khandalkar: Right? And I don't talk about it. I'm this positive, happy person, always. Like, people don't even see what… who I have become behind that. There's so many dark nights of the soul I had to go through. Like, yesterday I saw a video, she said…

360
00:54:09.690 --> 00:54:11.519
Maddox: That's part of becoming, though, huh?

361
00:54:11.520 --> 00:54:12.000
Priyanka Khandalkar: I guess…

362
00:54:12.000 --> 00:54:12.330
Dwight: Yeah.

363
00:54:12.330 --> 00:54:13.110
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes!

364
00:54:13.250 --> 00:54:17.880
Maddox: Some darker than others, but that's part of becoming.

365
00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:18.390
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

366
00:54:18.390 --> 00:54:21.169
Maddox: To burn so we can rise.

367
00:54:21.170 --> 00:54:21.530
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

368
00:54:21.530 --> 00:54:23.920
Maddox: the ashes like the phoenix.

369
00:54:23.920 --> 00:54:43.010
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, and then to answer to… to back… to back to that question of how my dad is feeling, and did I disconnect with him, he's still in my life, but he is very much… I had a situation in January, and this was just before we came… we started into the Aquarius season.

370
00:54:43.010 --> 00:55:01.100
Priyanka Khandalkar: In February, like, which is all around beginning, we ended the 9-year cycle of all the difficulties and the ear of snakes, so we were shedding a lot of things in last year, so I shared a lot of things during that 12-12 portal with all the endings. That ending was supposed to happen.

371
00:55:01.100 --> 00:55:10.249
Priyanka Khandalkar: Because I was supposed to step in to my soul work in this healing center. I cannot do this work. I can't bring my creativity if I'm living from pressure.

372
00:55:10.650 --> 00:55:11.350
Dwight: Yeah.

373
00:55:12.310 --> 00:55:19.920
Priyanka Khandalkar: My creativity comes when I give myself permission that this is what I'm supposed to do.

374
00:55:20.310 --> 00:55:27.080
Priyanka Khandalkar: And not live from, like… Also, your nervous… because my nervous system was always…

375
00:55:27.210 --> 00:55:35.019
Priyanka Khandalkar: not at peace. I was around people who will put their insecurities in me, there's so much chaos and drama, but…

376
00:55:35.360 --> 00:55:46.309
Priyanka Khandalkar: I… and also, when I was leading in Tony Robbins, I was taking 15-20 calls a day. Like, I was, like, I still had space in between to eat and all that, but still, there was a lot of pressure.

377
00:55:46.310 --> 00:55:56.059
Priyanka Khandalkar: they were not aligning with my ideas, because I am a creative, so I'm going to bring different ideas, how to improve my work. I created many different documents, how to make sure my clients are successful.

378
00:55:56.120 --> 00:56:06.879
Priyanka Khandalkar: But they did not even accept those changes, because… and then that space was not really the space I was supposed to be, so the god was like, you are not leaving, we are going to remove you.

379
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:08.100
Dwight: Ugh.

380
00:56:08.100 --> 00:56:10.489
Maddox: I think that's exactly the way it works.

381
00:56:10.490 --> 00:56:27.109
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, so with my marriage, with every relationship, the… and then in the, in January, I… because after this December thing, I was like, I need a reset, so I went to Florida by myself, solo trip, meeting all my clients and friends there, and

382
00:56:28.080 --> 00:56:41.349
Priyanka Khandalkar: I had, I had a very interesting situation. I had 3 different moments there where, again, wounded masculine was coming into my space to take away that peace from me.

383
00:56:41.680 --> 00:56:43.869
Priyanka Khandalkar: And trying to control my life.

384
00:56:44.660 --> 00:57:03.960
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, the way they have my dad controlled, then my ex controlled, making, like, decision for me, controlling my life. Also, like, they just want to have control. Rather than loving you, they just want to have control so that you can be small again, right? So I had, like, 3 different moments in January in…

385
00:57:04.010 --> 00:57:05.350
Priyanka Khandalkar: Florida.

386
00:57:05.350 --> 00:57:28.060
Priyanka Khandalkar: One of them was, like, with my… with my very close sibling, my brother, and he wanted to control my finances, and I'm like, no. And then he started saying a lot of different things. He's like, this is all your creation, there was nothing wrong with your marriage, your ex was amazing, he had been supporting me until then, and suddenly he changed, because the money came into play, and he could not control my money.

387
00:57:28.060 --> 00:57:39.339
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, there was all these different emotions, and then I forwarded all that to my parents, like, hey, dad, support me. And my dad could not do anything. He just said, I'm here for you.

388
00:57:39.580 --> 00:57:52.420
Priyanka Khandalkar: But yeah, like, that was the last thing. Like, I felt so betrayed, so hurt by wounded masculine that time. Maddox and Dwith. I felt, again, my dad did not support me.

389
00:57:52.830 --> 00:58:00.360
Priyanka Khandalkar: And… but he was still holding space. He knew he can't do anything, he can't tell my brother, because my brother have…

390
00:58:00.510 --> 00:58:06.270
Priyanka Khandalkar: like, he just could not. My dad had to, like, just say, like, we are here for you.

391
00:58:06.390 --> 00:58:14.830
Priyanka Khandalkar: But that's when the last conversation, and I'm still in between, he will… like, I'm… so now I created a new group with mom, dad, and me, but…

392
00:58:15.920 --> 00:58:22.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: I disconnected from my brother that time. I was like, I'm not taking these patents again.

393
00:58:24.950 --> 00:58:35.079
Priyanka Khandalkar: I'm not taking this kind of disrespect from him again, because he dishonored me, disrespected me, and he was trying to control

394
00:58:35.350 --> 00:58:37.870
Priyanka Khandalkar: Me, kind of a thing, and…

395
00:58:38.060 --> 00:58:49.250
Priyanka Khandalkar: That was one instance. There was another instance where I was just having a yummy food at Tiki Bar. Some… a man came in, and somehow he thought… Florida…

396
00:58:49.320 --> 00:59:05.290
Priyanka Khandalkar: Florida's culture is very messed up, and I… I knew about it, but I was, like, being amazing at conversation. I started conversing, and they were a business owner, we spoke about business, finance, investments, and this and that.

397
00:59:05.290 --> 00:59:12.420
Priyanka Khandalkar: And I don't know where he felt that it was okay to break into my sacred space, right?

398
00:59:12.420 --> 00:59:13.050
Dwight: Hmm.

399
00:59:13.280 --> 00:59:25.729
Priyanka Khandalkar: And touching me in a way which is not at all comfortable for me. I felt so unsafe, so vulnerable, and I left that place right away because I felt so… I felt…

400
00:59:25.840 --> 00:59:30.549
Priyanka Khandalkar: I felt so vulnerable and safe, same as what I felt when I was 6 and 7.

401
00:59:30.550 --> 00:59:31.390
Dwight: Oh.

402
00:59:31.640 --> 00:59:32.470
Priyanka Khandalkar: So…

403
00:59:32.470 --> 00:59:36.659
Maddox: You know, Priyanka, you said earlier that your dad had softened

404
00:59:37.200 --> 00:59:40.639
Maddox: And at the same time, you have hardened.

405
00:59:41.220 --> 00:59:42.640
Maddox: But in a good way.

406
00:59:43.610 --> 00:59:45.509
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, I would say…

407
00:59:45.510 --> 00:59:46.349
Maddox: You know, you…

408
00:59:46.350 --> 00:59:46.690
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

409
00:59:46.690 --> 00:59:48.910
Maddox: I've stepped into your power.

410
00:59:49.390 --> 00:59:53.899
Priyanka Khandalkar: I have, I have, and I'm so proud of myself, I'm so proud of…

411
00:59:54.240 --> 01:00:18.769
Priyanka Khandalkar: my higher self, because I was not connected to her before, and now that I'm connected to her, and she's the one who was… she… she's the one who came out of that water in Maui, right? I was fully embodying her power, she knows her truth, she knows who she is and what she's here to create, and I know I was supposed to go through all this trauma and all these identities.

412
01:00:18.880 --> 01:00:22.950
Priyanka Khandalkar: Because of who I have become and what I'm bringing out in the world.

413
01:00:23.700 --> 01:00:36.399
Maddox: You're also… and I've never put these together, these words together like this, but your ability to stand in your power plays a foundational role in your ability to create.

414
01:00:36.960 --> 01:00:37.760
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes.

415
01:00:38.230 --> 01:00:42.989
Maddox: hand in hand. If you feel powerless, you're not gonna be very creative.

416
01:00:43.210 --> 01:00:45.280
Priyanka Khandalkar: No, you can't be, so…

417
01:00:45.710 --> 01:01:04.109
Priyanka Khandalkar: with my brother, he… now also he wants to come back into my life, but I know he creates chaos in my nervous system, right? He, disrupts my peace, and it was a pattern, and I'm like, no, not yet, you can't come in. I felt dishonored, disrespected, and it goes back to that, Maddox, like…

418
01:01:04.240 --> 01:01:08.809
Priyanka Khandalkar: Really, I had to hold on to my power, but protect my power.

419
01:01:09.930 --> 01:01:10.620
Maddox: Yes.

420
01:01:11.140 --> 01:01:12.970
Priyanka Khandalkar: protection, I…

421
01:01:12.970 --> 01:01:15.940
Maddox: Bravo. Yes! Bravo!

422
01:01:16.170 --> 01:01:26.570
Priyanka Khandalkar: Because people just can't come over and be all over me. Now, also, my ex is, like, my ex got married last week, and he did not tell me about the woman, and not even about the wedding.

423
01:01:27.380 --> 01:01:31.380
Priyanka Khandalkar: And… So, I am just like, I'm stupid.

424
01:01:31.380 --> 01:01:33.530
Maddox: And he's the father of your child, correct?

425
01:01:33.530 --> 01:01:34.390
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah.

426
01:01:34.690 --> 01:01:35.630
Priyanka Khandalkar: And now he's…

427
01:01:35.630 --> 01:01:37.760
Maddox: Didn't even bother to tell you that he was…

428
01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:56.209
Priyanka Khandalkar: No, and I kept on telling him back. For me, intentional co-parenting is the most important thing, and my baby's emotional stability is the most important thing. If you would have told me, I would have helped to prepare her, and of course, I have been preparing that these changes will come, and she's the…

429
01:01:56.280 --> 01:01:57.990
Priyanka Khandalkar: Most empath.

430
01:01:58.700 --> 01:02:02.509
Priyanka Khandalkar: person you will see. She's also the most creative.

431
01:02:02.640 --> 01:02:08.099
Priyanka Khandalkar: She makes everything from hand. For Mother's Day, she made a card for me.

432
01:02:08.220 --> 01:02:14.440
Priyanka Khandalkar: And she wrote there, even if we are apart, we hold on to each other, and she's 8 years old.

433
01:02:14.820 --> 01:02:17.250
Dwight: Oh, how sweet.

434
01:02:17.250 --> 01:02:18.050
Maddox: Wow, wow.

435
01:02:18.050 --> 01:02:32.230
Priyanka Khandalkar: So, her maturity, how she sees, how she thinks, how she feels my pain, but she was also mature at 8-year-old. Like, I know she will be okay, she's on her own journey.

436
01:02:32.300 --> 01:02:49.690
Priyanka Khandalkar: He just told me they're moving to California, and she's moving with him for schooling. So, I'm going through my own things right now around the whole co-parenting, but I'm also making sure I don't go to the level that he is trying to create for me.

437
01:02:49.690 --> 01:02:58.789
Priyanka Khandalkar: But, like, staying at that place where I am whole, but I hold space, I… even if she's far from me in Portland right now, I…

438
01:02:59.060 --> 01:03:12.330
Priyanka Khandalkar: I always put golden energy around her. I always feel her energy within me. I'm always putting prayers, I'm always putting prayers for her self-confidence, self-worth, her creativity, because she's so creative.

439
01:03:12.330 --> 01:03:19.960
Priyanka Khandalkar: Like, I remember one of my birthdays, she created a… she got all these Amazon boxes, and she created a whole jewelry box for me, with all the.

440
01:03:19.960 --> 01:03:20.630
Dwight: You've been…

441
01:03:20.630 --> 01:03:35.209
Priyanka Khandalkar: and then put a heart shape on it. Like, whenever she will be here, she will take things from everywhere here, on the beach, and then she will create some candles for me, beautiful ones. So, she's just… and now she's doing crochet, like, she's just…

442
01:03:35.330 --> 01:03:38.959
Priyanka Khandalkar: She also… she's also my source of, what do you call…

443
01:03:39.460 --> 01:04:04.290
Priyanka Khandalkar: bringing me back to my inner child, like, because I ignored my inner child for the younger… like, I lost that at 6, so I had not really celebrated myself. I was so serious about my life. Even I would do dancing, singing, maybe I'm, like, smiling like that in there, but I was not truly connected to my younger child, but she's also the one who brings me back to those, and we have so much fun. We get giggly, we get laughing.

444
01:04:04.290 --> 01:04:07.789
Priyanka Khandalkar: We just get silly, and we get creative together, so…

445
01:04:08.240 --> 01:04:12.310
Maddox: Well, when the time is right, she'll, she'll be, she'll be with you.

446
01:04:13.020 --> 01:04:14.959
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yes, I know she will be.

447
01:04:15.140 --> 01:04:31.060
Priyanka Khandalkar: That's… I said this is the divine plan, it is supposed to be what it is, but she will be back to me, because I know she's an empath, I already know that she will be going back to being a healer, but she has to go through her own path of her life first.

448
01:04:31.060 --> 01:04:33.849
Maddox: Yes, I think you're very, very wise.

449
01:04:33.980 --> 01:04:40.020
Maddox: And just knowing what you just said, and honoring that, I think you're very wise.

450
01:04:40.280 --> 01:04:45.600
Maddox: Prakia, we are about out of time, but I would like to ask, before we wrap.

451
01:04:45.800 --> 01:04:50.309
Maddox: Do you have anything that you would like to leave the listeners with?

452
01:04:50.720 --> 01:05:03.289
Priyanka Khandalkar: Yeah, I… so I spoke about so many pieces together, right, today, and you spoke, Maddox and Dwight, you spoke about how to stay in your creativity, right? For me.

453
01:05:03.500 --> 01:05:19.309
Priyanka Khandalkar: when I'm the most creative is when I am in, like, I have proper structure, but also I am in stillness, and I'm doing things which energizes me, and deleting, delegating the things that doesn't feel good.
