A study of capacity and expansion, with poet & 7-figure business mentor Amber Lilyestrom

Love this? Check out The Initiation [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-initiation], our upcoming 4-week stabilization & foundations program. We start June 10th. In this episode, Jenni sits down with seven-figure business mentor and poet Amber Lilyestrom to explore what it actually takes to stop building a business from your wounds and start building from your vision. Amber shares her raw backstory, from testifying in court at age five to leaving a decade-long career the day after her daughter was born, and how those experiences shaped the mentor she is today. You'll walk away with a new framework for understanding why your strategy isn't the problem, what your capacity is, and what it looks like to finally build a business (and a life) that is fully, unapologetically yours.

How to queer every single area of your life — not just your sexuality | Mike DeSocio

Love this conversation? Learn how to make the kind of money that supports your evolution (even when you need to hide in a cave of becoming) in our next free masterclass, May 22nd, called The Current. [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-current] In this episode, Jenni sits down with journalist, artist, and queer liberation advocate Mike DeSocio — a longtime coaching client and collaborator — to trace his journey from Eagle Scout and buttoned-up corporate journalist to living freely and fully in Milan, Italy. Mike opens up about the grief of leaving a six-year relationship, the cascade of structures he outgrew (monogamy, home ownership, a 9-to-5), and how choosing his desires over respectability unlocked a new level of creative and personal freedom. This conversation is a wild permission slip to question the scaffolding in your own life, chase queer joy unapologetically, and build a world where you are completely, magnetically yourself.

How to move from financial survival mode to accumulation mode as a creative | Jenni Gritters

This is your invitation to join the Cyclical Wealth Blueprint workshop on May 22nd! Register here. [https://world-builders.kit.com/bb5eb97520] If you're making money but it keeps slipping through your fingers, you're not broken -- but it is time to lean into accumulation mode. In this episode, Jenni breaks down the two phases of financial growth — stabilization and accumulation — and what it actually takes to move between them as a creative, cyclical human. This is an honest, unglamorous money conversation about personal accountability, maturity and not just making money, but HOLDING it. In this episode, Jenni covers: * The difference between stabilization and accumulation — and how to know which phase you're in * The 5 money grips (shame, self-doubt, fear, hiding, and pressure) that block you from seeing your finances clearly * Why creatives and neurodivergent founders tend to spend money the moment they make it — and the nervous system reason behind it * What emotional regulation, long-term thinking, and identity work actually have to do with building wealth * The solopreneur-to-CEO shift and why it requires a completely different relationship with money * How to start building margin so your nervous system can finally rest Resources: * Apply for The Council (July cohorts): https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-council [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-council] * Join our next live Clearing event (free): https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-clearing [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-clearing] * Register for the Cyclical Wealth Blueprint masterclass: https://world-builders.kit.com/bb5eb97520 [https://world-builders.kit.com/bb5eb97520] * Learn your World Building Archetype: https://worldbuilders.zite.so/ [https://worldbuilders.zite.so/]

The sacred, the nervous system and the next 7 years with Elisha Tichelle

In today's episode, Jenni sits down with threshold guide and somatic oracle Elisha Tichelle for a conversation that will crack your brain wide open, covering identity death, the trap of fixed personality, and why the most dangerous thing you can do right now is keep performing a version of yourself that was built from conditioning, not truth. Elisha brings together depth psychology, somatic science, quantum physics, and sacred animism to make the case that real power isn't about strategy or status — it's about getting enough voltage into your nervous system to actually hold the fullness of who you are. With Uranus moving into Gemini and a major paradigm shift already underway, this episode is both a warning and an invitation: the next seven years will separate the creators from the consumers, and your body is the most important tool you have.

What it means when your revenue stalls | Jenni Gritters

Love this conversation? You're invited into SEEN, the next World Builders' immersion, on May 4th: https://www.theworldbuilders.co/seen [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/seen] When your revenue stalls, it's not a sign that something is wrong — it's a protective signal that your identity is shifting and you need a fallow period to discover what's next. Jenni unpacks why conscious entrepreneurs unconsciously block money when they're in transition, and how grief, identity work, and sitting in the "void" are actually essential steps to unblocking it. The episode closes with a powerful reframe: your frequency and resonance (not your strategy) are what ultimately magnetize clients and move money, making now the time to get quiet, ask for what you need, and step into a more refined version of who you're becoming. How to join World Builders: * Register for the next Clearing [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-clearing], our free live coaching session * Learn about resonance marketing [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/tuning-in], and how visionaries are changing course in the current moment * Dip into The Ache [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/theache], which is all about the grip you have in your body related to money * Inquire about 1-1 coaching with Jenni via The Spiral [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-spiral] * Put in an application for the next round of The Council [https://www.theworldbuilders.co/the-council]
