We were lucky to catch up with Wendi Giuliano recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Wendi, thanks for joining us today. We’d love to hear the backstory behind a risk you’ve taken – whether big or small, walk us through what it was like and how it ultimately turned out.
I have taken many risks in life, some bigger than others, a few that stand out and make me the person I am today. In 2001 I packed up some clothes and personal items into my new-to-me Jeep and drove from Minnesota to Massachusetts with no job or place to live. I did have some connections and a few months later I had both the job and place to live. I met my husband, bought a home and continued my career in corporate sales. Somewhere along the way I had lost myself and was “going through the motions” of life and work AND I didn’t even realize it! I had an injury that never healed -hmm well that makes sense! However at the time I didn’t know what I didn’t know. I joined a women’s connection company called Polka Dot Powerhouse and a few short months later was a leader with the organization, having launched a local chapter on the East Coast. After the founder came out for our chapter launch, she asked me to also be a Regional Director and I accepted. She must have seen something in me that I didn’t see in myself. Risks and more Risks! One year later I decided I couldn’t do my corporate gig anymore, and with a sort-of-plan I gave my notice. The Universe provided, I stepped into many roles with Polka Dot, since I had so much time (wink wink). This was a HUGE financial risk going from an established business to building something so new. I might even say I was on the edge of my panic zone, way outside my comfort zone! During this time I was dealing with that unhealed injury still – yes 7 years total- finding Western medicine was not getting me anywhere. I became my advocate and started trying alternative/holistic approaches. For example, CBD, meditation, gratitude journaling, food testing, Japanese acupuncture, massage, reflexology, chiropractic care, and even reading how Louise Hay and Dr. Joe Dispenza believed you could send love and virtual (remove your) healing! It’s amazing the things you will do and try when you are in pain! That is where my story gets juicy in 2020, I had time!! WE all had time! I was connecting with a member in Polka Dot and she mentioned a frequency device from Germany. I had an experience in a session when I was doing the food testing, it relieved my pain for about 24 hrs. I took a Risk and purchased this device from a German start up during a pandemic. I received it, called Healy, and started using it consistently daily. Within months I didn’t have my chronic pain! What was this MAGIC!!??!! The more I learned the more I wished to learn. AND was I sleeping in school when this was taught?!? Through some card guidance and my intuition, I signed up for Reiki and 8 months later had my Master certification! Just another tool in my toolbox. I have even been diving into Quantum Physics basics to help bridge the Woo and Science gap. I view this all as a Risk to step outside the conventional way to act, think and do things – very different than my upbringing. These risks have had great rewards for me and for others. I truly believe this all happened for a reason. I needed to have all these experiences that involved me taking risks to learn and teach myself how to heal so I could share all of this wisdom with others to help them heal physically, mentally or spiritually.
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.
I did share more of my about me in the risk question so will just continue…. I believe my unique approach is that I came from very little understanding of how energy, frequency and vibration works. I had pain as many people do on a daily basis and I decided to advocate for myself when the doctors were not. I was open and had belief that there must be something different and that openness allowed the Universe/God to bring me the solutions that I needed. Of course I took action, I didn’t just sit back waiting for something to fall into my hands. I do believe we all that the capabilities to heal ourselves. I will preface, if I were in an accident I would desire a surgeon to put me back together. I do believe that mindset has a huge role in this work. That is why I work daily on my mindset and serve others to help them make the shifts they are desiring. I am a genuine connector and love building relationships with others. The women’s community I am in truly supports, empowers and helps me to serve on a grander scale. Some of my services I provide remotely and in person are Reiki energy healing, Oracle Card Reading and anything related to the frequency device, Healy. In addition, I can help if any woman is looking for community, desire to build genuine relationships with other positive, abundant, no drama women globally for personal and/or professional reasons.
Are there any books, videos, essays or other resources that have significantly impacted your management and entrepreneurial thinking and philosophy?
Did I mention I LOVE learning!! There are so many books and resources I have that I could go on for days!! I mentioned earlier Louise Hay, get it all from her! Specifically You Can Heal Your Life. She is the founder of Hay House, amazing resources for books, cards, videos and trainings! Dr. Joe Dispenza I mentioned with Becoming Supernatural and all his meditations and trainings. A Happy Pocket Full of Money by David Cameron Gikandi, I just completed my fourth reading and third book club on this book. I took a course on the Power of Intention that was structured around Lynne McTaggarts trainings and books. Wayne Dyer books, CDs and all the things! There are many mindset books that I have read. I do truly believe in having a morning and/or night routine too! As an example of my nightly routine:
Stretch for 15 minutes
Essential Oils diffusing & Crystals
Mala Bead Chanting
Meditation
General Reading
Reading Scripture & Praying
Gratitude Journaling
I joke if I add anything else I will need to “start” for bed 3 hours ahead of when I need to be sleeping!
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
YES this is a my path and everything that has come before had a purpose or reason. Have things been difficult, challenging, confusing and horrible YES! Will things in the future be difficult, challenging, confusing and horrible YES! That is the evolution of ME. I am right where I am suppose to BE right at this moment. Does the overachiever and doer always lean into this, NOPE! NADA! NO WAY! However that is why I continue practicing and surrounding myself with like minded people. Everything is Energy. Energy is Everything. As Nikola Tesla said, “If you want to find the secrets of the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration” Now that I know this I cannot go back, all I can do is continue learning, practicing and serving!
