Business as a Magical Practice

Hey everyone! Welcome to business as a magical practice. This is our very first episode together so I wanted to set some expectations and share a little bit about me.
My name is Sam Garcia & I run Dirty Alchemy Digital Marketing - www.thedirtyalchemy.com - a digital marketing agency for magical businesses... And I’m also co-founder of Living Earth Systems - www.livingearthsystems.com - a regenerative agriculture design & education firm on the North Shore of Maui.
That being said... I live on a 170 regenerative agroforestry project on Maui so you may hear roosters crowing every few minutes, heavy wind, and all sorts of fun things that happen to be a part of off-grid living.
So if you’re here, you are most likely a magical person who owns a magical business. You’re spiritually oriented but still grounded in the material plane. You’re not just sitting on a meditation cushion 24/7 Thinking that you can chant your way to success. But you also know that your magical practices, your spiritual practices make a very real impact on your business and your life.
At Dirty Alchemy we work with multiple 6 And seven-figure online businesses solely in the spiritual and occult space and I’ve seen time and again the “miracles" and totally unexpected success that come from fusing business with the invisible cords that are uniting us all.
And as business owners we hold the power. Our work to integrate our conscious and unconscious, to heal ourselves, to clear karmic patterns and decide on better beliefs, all of this impacts our business. But you already know that.
So on this podcast will be exploring how our magical practices impact our business, but also how our business and work in the world impact our soul evolution and spiritual growth. Business in and of itself as a magical practice.
Most spiritual business owners know their spiritual practice impacts their business. That’s why you have your morning routine and meditation practice and you listen to the podcasts and read the books. But business has been, in my experience, more profound in my growth than any 40 day kriya or soul re integration session.
It’s in the extreme discomfort of sales and putting myself out there and doing all the things in not that much time that has shown me magic and torn me apart to emerge as a more powerful version of myself.
And as a digital marketer I can’t deny the mirroring of spells and copywriting. When you’ve put your full self into something, and vulnerable emotions in your sales funnel, when you’ve publicly revealed yourself for all to see and judge and have thoughts about... That’s when you step into the fire. That’s when your spiritual practice is truly birthed into the world.
Business in our modern world is so different than it once was. You really can’t go anywhere without being marketed to, by being influenced, and as our businesses become more of an outpouring of ourselves, the money we make becomes a very different thing... it means something totally different.
And we’ll be diving into all of this over time.
And going back a little further -- I got into marketing a decade ago with the intention of learning how to do it all for myself for some unknown future business that I would own. But on the way it became my business. I found a deep deep love for it. Perhaps the stars align that my mercury dominant astrology chart pulled me to unquestionably mercurial vocation -- Internet marketing.
But what I believe from my core is that good tools need to be in the hands of people doing good work. The money, the business strategy, the success, the recognition, the platform. All of this needs to be given to you. Taken by you. That’s so what drives me. Good people doing good work for The good of all. And being wildly compensated in the process. Sound good?
I’m so excited to start this conversation with you. I have some really fun guests lined up and lessons planned so that every week we are taking strides forward towards our vision, our desires, and the desires we don’t even have the courage to have yet.
So I’ll leave you with that.

How to trust your intuition in marketing

Statement of Value: what it is & why it matters
Creating a solid customer value journey
How & why to retarget your potential customers
...
Because your business’ success — it’s next level — can be revealed and guided through your intuition.
... That’s right. We’re all about Intuitive Marketing over here.
Because let’s be honest... If you listen to alllll of the Marketing Advice on the internet, you’re bound to get overwhelmed.
Whether you’ve been marketing for one week or for many years, you’ve probably felt at some point like marketing was overwhelming.
Between all the different marketing tactics and strategies available, it can be hard to know what the best marketing techniques are for your super special unicorn business.
But I have good news for you: Once you understand the basics of marketing and you’ve started to track your numbers, your intuition can be a great tool to help you figure out how to move forward.
There’s a reason why Paramahansa Yogananda once said: “Intuition is the discriminant faculty that enables you to decide which of two lines of reasoning is right. Perfect intuition makes you master of all.”
So today, we’re talking all about intuitive marketing.
Don’t get me wrong: there are definitely tried-and-true methods for making your business a success, like having a concrete Statement of Value, creating a solid customer value journey, retargeting your potential customers, and a whole host of other strategies...
But after you’ve already set up the basics and you’re ready to move on to what’s next, and not be on the non-stop crazy train that many internet-based business owners feel that they’re on...
That’s when it’s time to turn inward.
And this is amazing! This means you have everything you need forward already within yourself.
So... how can you set yourself up to have a powerful intuition that you can trust?
It’s all about taking time to be mindful so that you can connect to your inner self, and then paying attention to the synchronicities that pop up.
A great way to become more mindful is by starting out each month with a work plan. Map out what the upcoming month will look like:
- What projects will you be working on?
- What deadlines do you have to meet?
- If you have a team of employees, what will the rest of your team be working on?
After you’ve mapped out what the following month will look like, set up a mindfulness routine that you can follow on a daily basis. Setting aside just 15 minutes to an hour every day can completely transform your thought patterns.
If you need some more inspiration, our brilliant client Alexandra Roxo has a badass morning journaling meditation on her website that will jump-start your day and help you feel embodied and present. We’ll put that link in the show notes.
Anyway, essentially what you want to be doing is bringing yourself into a state of believing that you are guided and that you can't make a wrong decision with your business.
One of my favorite thought leaders Kathryn Morrison outlines a simple & effective process for working on upgrading your beliefs, if “I can't make a wrong decision with my business” doesn’t feel at all resonant right now.
Here’s the gist of it:
- Meditate on a future version of you, maybe 3 years from now, that has the result that you want (e.g., easily hit the annual revenue that you want, with tons of flow)
- Identify what thoughts your future self thinks and believes (e.g., Money loves and supports me, My offerings are life changing, The more money I make the more time I have...)
- Feel into those thoughts & beliefs - do any of them resonate now?
- Start practicing consistently thinking the thoughts & believing the beliefs that already feel resonant -- take time ...
