We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Zayne Spirit. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Zayne below.

Zayne, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Often outsiders look at a successful business and think it became a success overnight. Even media and especially movies love to gloss over nitty, gritty details that went into that middle phase of your business – after you started but before you got to where you are today. In our experience, overnight success is usually the result of years of hard work laying the foundation for success, but unfortunately, it’s exactly this part of the story that most of the media ignores. Can you talk to us about your scaling up story – what are some of the nitty, gritty details folks should know about?

Soul Drive Global began with a focus on providing services through my intuitive abilities and intentional, holistic products such as relaxing sugar scrubs, third eye clearing toothpaste, high vibrational herbal smoke blends, etc. These products were classified as “upkeep and remedies” to assist others in connecting the physical and spiritual in a routine way. Curating each product has always been from my heart but after two years of consistently expanding, I no longer resonated with my products in the same passionate way. Although products are not my only offering, I held resistance when it came to letting go of what I had placed so much love into. As I was in denial of the need to make room in my life and business, my intuitive senses were heightened and I began to explore my mediumship abilities. I no longer wanted to run from my gift of seeing and experiencing our transitioned loved ones and earth bound spirits. I had partially ran for so long because they actually looked very scary to me, like zombies walking the Earth. I later understood that the reason for them appearing this way was because I could actually see the pain that held them here. Everyone’s intuition works differently, so this was not anything that could have been taught to me outside of mediation and closer reflection. In facing my fears, I began to call forth my benevolent ancestors that are on my Spirit team. I had a period of getting to know them in meditation, which I like to call “tea time.” This is where SDG shifted into “Ancestral Magic and Medicine” instead of “Upkeep and Remedies.” I had a vision that would lead me to create a product line specifically with the energy of three of my ancestors, whose names are Ku, Mazela and Kay Chi. They are actually collective ancestors, here to assist in our community’s healing, consciousness, teachings and overall spiritual hygiene. Everytime you purchase a product in their collections, you will experience them and their power. Being obedient to this vision changed us and our growth DRASTICALLY. I had never seen anyone else with this concept nor intention but my spirit had to remind me that some visions are just for me to understand and execute. I was excited but fearful too! The only way beyond that fear is to address it head on.

I have realized many times over since then that being obedient to my intuition made me a pioneer in my field. I am now the creator of Ancestral Energy Healing Initiative (AEHI), a research project dedicated to curing “incurable” disease through techniques that live in my DNA and ancestral lineage. We have several testimonies of how energy healing has helped remove illness from our people, which I am eternally thankful for. As I dived deeper into how energy stores in the body, I was led to reprogram the cells to release fat, stimulate muscle, tighten skin, etc from communicating with the cells and getting to the root of why someone carries that emotion or thought in that particular way. The body’s shape is deeply connected to our thoughts and emotions which had to be revealed through my own personal discovery. This is now a service called Energetic Body Contouring. Now I offer mentorship for personal and soul led business development called Divine Day.

SDG grew because I continued to grow, which is not always seen or understood by the public eye. In many instances, people would hear a vision of mine and be struck with confusion until I actually executed it. Whether it was created immediately or took time to develop, much of my “overnight success” has been about consistency and trust. I had to trust myself even when my vision appeared outlandish. I wholeheartedly know that my success is due to being Spirit led, allowing my intuition and visions to be of service to our collective. This is certainly overlooked in standard business practices, but I am seeing more intuitives lean into it now more than ever.

Zayne, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I have always been a support to our collective which was shown in my first business, Imprinted Souls. Although this business did not succeed traditionally, it laid down all of the groundwork for what would come next. I began to explore my psychic and intuitive abilities in 2016, waking up to what really felt good to me and the kind of lifestyle that was needed to be free. I created Soul Drive Global in 2017, with the mission to assist others in their conscious and intentional journey. I was still growing in this area personally, but Spirit told me that what I had to offer was needed. I am able to see now that my journey into discipline and trust has been inspirational since I wasn’t pretending to be perfect. I allowed Spirit to move through me from the beginning.

I mentioned how our products shifted from remedies to magic and medicine, but this also means that the services offered shifted quite a bit as well. Along with previously mentioned Energetic Body Contouring, Divine Day VIP Mentorship, and Ancestral Energy Healing, I provide other offerings as follows:

I channel sound healing through my voice and tongue drum for retreats, concerts, and private healing spaces with intention. You can find pre recorded sound healings in our shop. Astral Gridding is where I astral project into your home, work, car, etc to place a particular intention into the foundation of the space. Ancestral Channeling is a service to call forth specific or nonspecific ancestors to our safe space so that clarity and peace can be had in both the Spirit and the client. I am also a Reiki Master and provide Reiki healing as a service. I teach a handful of students every year which can be inquired about through the “Reiki Teaching” tab on souldriveglobal.com. I host teaching workshops regularly, do community rituals, speak at events, and curate sacred spaces for our community to flourish in.

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

Social media is a portal, where we share energy in each exchange. We may not take it very seriously all the time, but it can be so helpful in reaching your “kind” far and wide. In realizing this, I stopped treating it as a tool for marketing but instead cultivated it as a space where communicating with our collective could take place all over the world. This led me to understand that each exchange is important and that I needed to really filter what energy I was taking in and giving. I knew that not everyone would be my audience or community, so I started blocking out those that did not align with the vision. In the space that I have created, I shared the growth in my life with full transparency which attracted people to my offerings. I proactively share stories, channeled messages, reviews of our work, go live with Spirit led chats, and engage with the people that truly love what Soul Drive Global represents. I see us as a soul family and that energy is certainly reciprocated online.

I have witnessed authenticity triumph over any other tactic again and again. Be yourself, release people that don’t support you (offline and online), and make room for those who resonate with you. My block list is very long and I think that is necessary to filter out what doesn’t align. Grassroots marketing played a big role in the growth of my clientele. When you provide memorable and transformational products and services, people will automatically want to share you, talk about you, and further support you. Of course, there are strategies that work and even the team that I have hired now uses a mix of intuition and algorithm but that was not how I built my brand from the beginning. My media strategy, at the core, has always been to allow Spirit to bring me to whoever is ready to receive what I offer.

How did you put together the initial capital you needed to start your business?

SDG has never received funding from anywhere but my own pockets and 9-5 work. I worked for a photography company that did events as well as Uber in 2017. I bought starter jars, labels, and many of my packaging items from the local hobby lobby or herb stores. I wasn’t particularly savvy with finances back then and even dealt with homelessness within the first year of SDG running. I had to take time away from business to get myself in a space of stability before being of service again which brought forth tons of emotions for me. I did not want lack mentality or suffering to be included in any package or service that someone received from me, so I had to honor the regrouping process. When I felt led to offer services again, everything began to pick up for us financially, reviews poured in, and Soul Drive Global was actually bringing in enough money to supply product restock without personal investment. I was finally able to let go of my 9-5 within two years of dedication to SDG and have been independent from other work since. It has been a slow and steady process for us.
