We recently connected with Tonya Dee and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Tonya thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Have you ever had an amazing boss, mentor or leader leading you? Can you us a story or anecdote that helps illustrate why this person was such a great leader and the impact they had on you or their team?
Seriously, the Best Boss I ever had – I literally called her boss. I was 21 years old and was fired from a place right across the street. I had driven by her business, that week and it was if spirit was guiding me. I was fired on a Thursday and showed up at her door early morning on Friday. I worked the day and she hired me then and there. My parents had owned a business my entire life, so I knew the ups and downs of business ownership. When people would complain about her, It always bothered me, as I had witnessed plenty of hardships with my parents, employees embezzling money – stuff like that. But this lady to me was amazing, she had hired me right off of the street, She gave gratitude bonuses each month based on performance/sales. I had had my son during my time working for her, and unbeknownst to me, the other employees would go to her saying she favored me over them, because I sold the most. I went in, did my job – went home. As a single parent you don’t have a lot of ME-time. With that, one of our Monthly Meetings, always the first Monday of the Month. I had no idea the “talk” about me from the others, whom I’d assumed were my friends (I worked there for 8 years), behind my back. My favorite and only boss, stood up for me, and said, “Instead of bickering about Tonya, why don’t you do what she has done. I have never met anyone who has tripled her business in 3 months. Instead of complaining, why don’t you start doing what she is.” I was dumbfounded as I thought these people were my friends, and they were just angry to see my glow through adversity. Best Boss EVER and I still call her boss to this day ;) Bottom line, value your people, and they value you too.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
Honestly, I was blessed with Death at a young age, a Near Death Experience at the age of 7, and in a coma for a time. Organically I always saw between worlds upon my return from the other world. I saw, sensed, felt things that no one around me was seeing, hearing or sensing and more. I quickly became somewhat of a recluse, watching from my own cloud line. Friending the unseen, the realm of plants, nature, spirit beings and more. I went into the beauty fashion and wellness industry, brought in a method from spirit, A vision – everything I do is Spirit Directed, divinely ordained, going to my own spiritual round table. Energy Healing is a vast field, beyond the scope of humans, many options. Besides the chakra’s and the Auric Field, the realm of the Elemental. I brought in a Skin and Body Method based on the Chinese Elements and the Chakras, for healing through the skin. With sound, light, essential oils and even vibration on the Acupuncture Points, movement of the 5 fluids in the body and more. Understanding the Elemental Foundation of a person, ie. the year they are born into, the season, the hour, the month down to the day. Finding the Bridge Between Beauty and Wellness. The Body speaks a Language all of its own, if we pay attention to the tell-tale signs, we can assist our health and well-being. One client had a skin condition that was enveloping his body – a combination of psoriasis and eczema – fire and earth elementals that are out of balance. I worked on him energetically on the field, but knew that this was coming from an internal story. It was it eating habits that were creating his condition – got him off all processed foods and doing green smoothies ;) not only did his skin and appearance change, but also his entire well-being and health (He was finally feeding his body, lost unnecessary weight and more)! He was still having some issues – so I was like its his house ;) I literally became his cleaning lady and energetic health practitioner – Energy NEVER lies – getting to the root cause of a condition does take time, and it also takes space, we usually don’t get into any of our “conditions” over night. Its a process like all things. Hope that helps
Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
Besides being brought back from the Other side, I too, have experienced miss-steps. In 1995, I decided to open my own wellness and healing center, I was unable to get a loan for the adventure. Even being a woman and a single mom, the opportunities are limiting. SO, plan B like many of us do. I mortgaged my house and used a bunch of credit cards. And if that wasn’t enough. I had been in the location for less than 2 years – and what is called “imminent domain,” took place. That’s where the government takes what you have, for the good of the community. Despite what you may think – they DO NOT reimburse you for what you lose or to move, or I should say they do – but I owed $150K for the business and they gave me a whooping $10K to relocate – during the holidays mind you, a prime time to create abundance. I have little faith in the channels of man, its been a process. I subscribe to the laws of spirit, a better channel and directive. I journeyed forward. Paid back the banks/credit cards etc., for a business that was no longer. And did relocate with the $10k that didn’t do anything, and of course – remortgaged the house further.
It may have been the universe moving me out of that direction – which I am now.
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
If I was to go off of the Imminent Domain, and being pushed out of my business just to relocate and start over, You lose about 50% of your clientele to move down the road. And it takes two years to get a business in the flow. So rebound, I had to relearn and am still learning to trust in the laws of man, the government, the illusion of corporate America, the banks, etc. I do, again, quit subscribing to the laws of man, and the ideology of what a “good” life looks like. I don’t have credit cards, I am a cash only person. Meaning if I don’t have cash I do not go. I have no desire to be indebted to a servant/slave society, Where is this all going. I find it peculiar and strange – how we as a world, have lost our ability to be curious, question everything. We just go on believing and subscribing to things without batting an eye. I remember one of my clients, years ago – retired, and the highlight of her life and her husbands was going to the doctors – like every other month. (Seemed strange) This client started to have some strange random rashes. The element of fire, I suggested she take all her meds to the pharmacy as it appeared they were not getting along. (and her husband was on a medication that supposedly stopped heart attacks, they ran in his family). However, she too ended up in the emergency room, 6 months later, with a heart attack, as her meds were not getting along. If she had listened to me months prior, the condition would have been resolved. The body doesn’t lie, we have forgotten to listen. And her husband too, ended up having a heart attack anyway, even though the meds he was on were preventative. Curious times indeed. Not sure that answered these questions, and I don’t mean to make it sound so dreary either.
