Ed is a huge inspiration to keep it grounded and real. 
I’m thrilled he’s in Hollywood, rippling his energy out. 
My biggest dream has always been to be in a similar position, to ripple my energy out. 
See you soon my friend.

After 8 years of staying silent, or giving a fluff response, when being asked the question:
​
"How Can I Love Myself?"
​
I now have an answer! (THANK THE HEAVENS!)
I have found a key and have been putting it to work!
I'm so happy to share this with you!

If you have been searching, join me, in my latest 'How To Live A Mythic Life' video.

I LOVE YOU!!!
We got this.
​
​Love, Phoebe Dykstra

⁣⁣Despite having had a wonderful upbringing and always being provided for, I still managed to engulf myself in scarcity.

When I was younger, I would cripple at the thought of going to a restaurant with anyone. What if they wanted to share food with me? What if they ate some of my fries and there wasn’t enough for me!

Thankfully, I’ve been able to move beyond this, but I still carry parts of the old energy with me.
The never enough mentality, S-C-A-R-C-_I-T whY when I’ve got everything I need?

I want to feel the overflowing feeling of abundance, in all areas of my life! 
​
So, on this episode of How To Live A Mythic Life, I set out on a mission to find ABUNDANCE.

THIS IS A STORY OF BRAVERY.

I can’t give Justin Bieber all the credit for me being hired as a MuchMusic VJ. But when you are dressed in all black, backcombed hair and piercings, facing a table full of pop music TV professionals, it helps to have “Bieber Fever” tattooed on your leg.

I was hired and it was a dream to get to meet the badass Bieb himself.

2 months into being on TV, with zero previous experience in any area of the field, I was brought into the basement by one of my producers. He said he needed to talk to me about something and that I needed to stay quiet.

Justin Bieber was coming to MuchMusic and my producer wanted me to do the interview!

“It’s a 1 hour, LIVE to TV special, promoting Justin’s movie, Never Say Never.” You are the host who is truly a fan, I BELIEVE you can do it, Phoebe. 

I remember this moment, exactly, we were sitting at a cafeteria style table, in the basement, next to a pop machine. I didn’t even know the basement existed. What was happening.

Immediately, I went into the paradox, I had two very strong conflicting beliefs inside me at the same time. 

1. Yes Phoebe, this opportunity is for you! Nobody will be able to do this show like you! You will feel alive! He will love you! YOU GOT THIS! TRUST YOURSELF!
2. No Phoebe, this is too scary. You don’t know how to do an interview, leave it to the professionals. You will freeze up. He won’t like you. DON’T DO IT!

 
I was spinning. My producer had me sleep on it.

That night I went to visit a man who I was seeing. Crunched up in a ball, I told him about the opportunity. He talked to me about facing fears and how our treasure is on the other side. He talked to me about leaping and the net will appear. He talked to me about my greatness. He believed in me. A part of me believed in me too!

I dressed myself in my favourite color… and leaped!!!

LIGHTS! CAMERA!

Justin is seated beside me.

LET'S TAKE A PHOTO. 

Our studio is ALIVE! Screaming fans inside, screaming fans lined up down the streets. Justin's security, top floor execs, literally every eyeball on the damn planet, on us.

Well, I had better say something to him!

It's loud, but I lean in...

“Justin, sorry my breath smells!” "WHAT!" "I think I ate something!" "Ohhhhh."

WHAT. WAS. THAT.

AND.... ACTION!

I grabbed my fears by the balls, said "look here bitches" and got into the zone!!!

"Everyone welcome, JUSTIN BIEBER!"

I just hosted a 1 hour, live to tv special with the biggest and my personal most favourite artist in the world!! BOOOOO YAHH!!

#PrideBumps

Are your dreams right in front of your face and all you need to do is be bold, brave and take that leap?

What fears are holding you back?

Like my partner believed in me, I believe in YOU!!
And, I believe in me now too!

Let's do this thang friends, let's live our most mythic lives!!!

Oh, and when people ask me what Justin was like in real life, I have only positive things to say about that sweet young man. I truly believe he has a heart of gold.

Below, you will see Lilly. Lily was my OG friend!⁣ I grew up outside of a small town in the prairies of Manitoba, on a dairy farm. ⁣To me, it was a cat farm!⁣ I named and love all the cats, but Lily and I had the deepest connection. ⁣Although born from a black / white Domestic Short-Hair, who we assume had a rendezvous with one of the toms, Lily appeared to be part Siamese. ⁣Lily lived 19 human years of farm filled adventures, naps and kisses from me. 💜⁣

Below, you will meet Minnie. Minnie came to me for palliative care.⁣ I wanted a cat friend and Minnie’s human was away often.⁣ I felt a connection to Minnie as she resembled my childhood friend, Lily. ⁣Minnie lived her last months with me and my partner at the time, where she was loved and got to enjoy being carried down to the ocean in my arms. ⁣ 💜⁣

I want to feel powerful and in control of MY life! 

So, before pointing my finger at someone else, I ask myself how “this” could be MY fault in some way? When I used to be an MTV host, I would get so frustrated that people didn’t understand me, they didn’t feel me, they didn’t see me. 

As I am re-watching old videos of myself on YouTube today, I see exactly why people didn’t understand, feel or “see” me! It is because I wasn’t making myself understood in a way that other’s could comprehend, feel, or see!!!!!
* I struggled with communication skills and chose to take the role of a TV personality!
* I was overwhelmed, excited and caught up.
* I put MYSELF in disguise!
 
Now that I am aware…
* I am working to make myself understood, by learning about and practicing communication.
* I am consciously slowing down and am discovering new places to channel this energy.
* I have unmasked myself and am proud to show you who I am!
 
If I was to forever blame everyone else for not understanding me, I would forever feel like a victim, feel separate and feel misunderstood. No matter the depths of the situation, I am now able to look at how something could be possibly, juuuuuussst maybe my fault. So I can KEEP my power, so I am ABLE to make a change, even if only within myself.

Below is my latest How To Live A Mythic Life video, "WHO'S FAULT IS IT?"

MYTHIC PRACTICE:

I have been programming specific energies into my physical body parts, as a way to quickly change my energetic state and perceptions. Here is how:

I am focused, logical, calculating reality: I RECOGNIZE THAT I EMBODY SERPENT ENERGY: *I pinch my left thumb.*

I am feeling emotional, flighty and can’t make a decision: I RECOGNIZE THAT I NEED TO EMBODY SERPENT ENERGY: *I pinch my left thumb*

*Note: You can chose any finger (or body part) but you MUST use the same finger (or part) every single time for this 1 energy. My left thumb is programmed ONLY for serpent.*

MYTHIC AFFIRMATION:
“I slither like a snake, close to the ground 
I’m cool, I’m calm, you don’t hear a sound 
I see my world, in black and white
I make a strategic move, then I’m out of sight *hissssss*”

​Thank you for being with me on this journey! I'm heading over to put the final touches on our next How To Live A Mythic Life video. Today is a big one. Are we ready? Pillar #12 "Who's Fault Is It?" COMING LATER TODAY TO MYMYTHICLIFE.COM AND @PHOEBEDYKSTRA IGTV!

*Note: This shirt is not part of My Mythic Life clothing, this is a @BoundByBlood shirt that was created by my friend and his girlfriend. Jason sees that we are all part of the human family, he wishes to bring people together by sharing the message that we all bleed the same. I’m thrilled this shirt has found me at this time!*
