I am happy to announce that it’s here, my friends.

And by ‘it’ I mean the first real podcast of Post it Notes where instead of interviewing myself, I got to hang out with my fabulous fellow stacker, Demi Pietchell. “As the founder of The Starfire Codes, she has dedicated herself to shining light into the darkness and helping others navigate uncertainty. Just as the Hermit's lantern in the Tarot is lit by the guiding light of the Star, Demi serves as a beacon, illuminating the way forward through turbulent times.” I was honoured to have her as my first guest. If there’s anyone who can teach us how to create a successful Substack, it’s her. With a knack for writing truly wise, super witty, and wonderfully weird sentences, the Starfire Codes is an alchemical compendium of invaluable guidance, serving to light the way forward towards a life well-lived and a world well-loved. I welcome you to dive into my conversation with the divine and delightful Demi where we explore the past, present and future of her writing, as well as the how, when, what, and why of her Starfire Codes Substack…and much more.

We are artists and our only work is to do the work.

Changing our outsides from the inside out. I am a thrifter. A treasure-hunter. I just love the thrill that comes from discovering a piece of gold buried within piles of ‘junk’. Almost nothing beats the feeling of finding a good score- it makes me feel like I’m winning at life. I used to love shopping at Value Village, before it kinda went to crap. In fact, I would often use my local VV as a practice for manifestation. It was my ‘wish depot’. Me: “I need a new cast iron pan.” VV: “POOF!! We have one here waiting for you, Jacqueline. And it’s only $6. Come and get it!” My favourite part of the store by far was the book section because they had a “Buy 4, get 1 free” offer, and I would often score 5 great books for around 20 bucks. Best deal in town. One such score was a book I bought about 15 years ago called Art and Fear. Being an artist who, at that time, suffered from frustrating cyclical bouts of fear and self-sabotage, this book easily caught my attention. It practically leapt off the shelf into my hands. I do believe it was there for me to find it that day. It was kismet. Now that I think of it, many of my books have come to me like this~ they seem to feel me calling for them even if I’m not aware of the longing for them myself. It’s a thin book of around 100 pages so it only took me about an hour to read. As I did, I felt myself tingling all over with that familiar bliss that comes from being face to face with infinite Intelligence and Compassion. I felt seen and understood. It felt like I was being offered the key to my self-made prison, and being lovingly dosed with the cure for what ailed me. Many goosebumps were induced upon ingesting the guidance it contained, but one single mighty sentence has yet remained with me in its entirety: “An artist’s work is to learn to work on their work.” Bam!!! The moment I read this was the moment the burdensome weight and complexity of my struggles with perfectionism, esteem and consistency (or lack, thereof) blew away and transformed into a mere exhale of simplicity from relief at the thought. I only have to show up and allow, be open and vulnerable to what happens. I don’t have to be brilliant or perfect or create a masterpiece every time. I just need to awaken in the morning….and get to work. On my work, be it myself or my art. Anything else is distraction. How simple is that? For I learned not long after, it is only in doing the work that the monkey of the mind packs up and leaves for more exploitable pastures, and that the world becomes more of a playground than a danger zone. By putting your hands into the clay, by molding and shaping it deliberately into what you want it to be, you are doing your part to heal all wounds, internal and external. Yours and everyone’s. It is an inside game. Despite the many temptations and distractions and the voice of resistance squawking in your ear, true fulfillment can only be found from tending to our work, whether or not it is making art or making YOU. We are all artists. The creators of our lives. And making our Selves into masterpieces is all we can control. Upgrade to paid The Work I define ‘the work’ as the process by which we transform ourselves from reactors into creators. This can be done through a variety of ways, like making peace with our past as well as deleting the scarcity/limiting belief programming through an expansion of self-awareness. It really helps to perceive and understand the mirroring nature of our external world. It will always and only reflect what you embody. Who you BE. And no matter what is happening outside of you, the work remains the same. There is no doubt that there are more distractions than ever, more scary things ‘out there’ digging into our unhealed wounds and triggering residual fears, hooking us from the inside and convincing us they need our attention before we can tend to ourselves. But here’s the thing~ those hooks don’t work when you are rooted deeply within. When you understand that the outside is a reflection of your inside. We must become our own islands of safety instead of searching for it externally. Like the stars above, we are remembering how to reflect from within. This is how the outer world transforms from shadow into light. Share word up Last summer, I was invited onto Dani Katz’s podcast Word Up to discuss my story of how I transmuted the pain of an ideological breakup into a piece of cathartic, and dare I say, beautiful piece of art. I write more about that here: Can't Look You In Your Ideology JACQUELINE RENDELL · DECEMBER 9, 2023 Can't Look You In Your Ideology These are strange days, indeed. And as each day passes, I realize more and more that I am a proud alumni of “The Old School”. The curriculum of said school imbued in me the idea that “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” Read full story We are all in need of honing our alchemical powers that guide us to turn lead into gold, shit into roses. Or mushrooms. As you can tell from the clip below, I am incredibly passionate about “the work” and that it’s “always been the same”. It was my first time as a podcast guest and I clearly spoke like a horse runs when it’s first let out of the gate! Passion aside, I hope the content of my message resonates and infuses you with inspiration. Leave a comment Have a beautiful day, my fellow artists.

You Should Know Sonic Sparkle #6

Hello my lovelies! In honour of this powerful full moon that is bringing with it a portal of possibilities, inviting an opening of our hearts into experiences of deeper joy and of love, the setting of life intentions towards fulfilling our soul’s truest desires, I am sharing with you this love song that I feel aligns with this time of expansion and magic. Lena from the Power Path writes: Also known as the wolf moon, this moon inspires expansion as well as triggers a need to find your inner spark, passion and courage to go for it. The key is to open your heart wide to your personal joy so you can experience wonder and awe from the place of childlike innocence as if you are seeing the world for the first time. This will ignite a certain level of focus that can help you anchor new dreams and intentions. You can spend some time making a list of the things that inspire you and that you love to do, big and small, as well as working with your imagination to stretch beyond your limitations around what could be. the context I made this recording few years ago, when a classic clash between the fears couples carry created an emotional rift between us, one that felt impossible to mend with mere words. I created this piece with the intention to send soothing frequencies his way, embedded with the frequency of my intention to foster trust and heal our hearts. Sometimes, all we want to know is that we’re safe. the words You should know that I love you your mind and your face I just want you to be happy and to know your heart’s safe with me.

We have lift off! Introducing the Post it Notes Podcast. Episode #1: JACQUELINE RENDELL

Well, my friends….it’s here! I created the very first episode of the Post it Notes Podcast. I spent a lot -a LOOOOT- of time with myself yesterday getting to know myself better. I asked myself a bunch of questions and gave myself a lot of answers. Here’s hoping there is something of value in this prototype of an interview for you. Please feel comfortable leaving helpful feedback for me in the comments. It is a brand new baby of an idea that wants to be the best it can be, and grow into a mature sovereign adult idea that fully functions in society by contributing to the world around it. I am beyond grateful for how well so many of you received my idea for a podcast that showcases Stackers & their Stories. I am so excited to get to know you better. The world wants us to tell our unique stories. Needs us to. Doing this brings us together in ways that are obvious, yes. But I think there is a subtler, more important reason to share. During this time of heightened ‘divide and conquer’ agendas attempting to split us into teams and to separate us from each other by exploiting our deeply held fears and unhealed traumas, it is especially important that we debunk the nonsense that tells us we are on different sides. That we are somehow justified to harm the ‘other’ simply because they hold different views. Firstly, this is a distraction from doing your work on yourself, the work of tending to your own wounds and healing so that you can mature fully into a whole adult sovereign human man or woman. Secondly, we are being socially engineered to consistently put our focus on what we don’t want. If we stay stuck in a loop of reaction we lose our ability to create. When we reclaim our autonomy, our freedom of mind, of body, of spirit, we can then focus the power of our innate gift of attention towards what we want to see. Towards creating art, music, harmony. towards creating a sane and healthy world. We are powerful creators. Let’s tap into that and light it UP!!!!
