Show music: Happy Dreams - By David Fesliyan

  • Nikki Fraser 00:00:00  Welcome to this week's episode of Vetiver Vibes. Nikki Fraser here with Rachael Dean. Happy New Year, everybody. It's 2025.

    Rachael Dean 00:00:10  I know, I can't believe it. It seems like just yesterday it was 2020

    Nikki Fraser 00:00:16  I was I was thinking of our launching, because it's been five and a half years since we launched and it's it's a lot has happened, some great some bumps on the roads. And I'm so excited, so excited to see how 2025 goes for us. We have so many goals and plans in mind. I know we just.

    Rachael Dean 00:00:35  Had a fabulous goal setting session and brainstorming and brain dumping. All of our thoughts and ideas as to what a center will be this year and the next five years and beyond. And I think those are some of my favorite times, is when we get to just like, dream. I love dreaming, you know? And I know it seems silly that like, you have to, like, tie it into like a day of the year or a time of the year necessarily, but sometimes it's just good to have like that goal of like a date or something where you just make sure it happens.

    Rachael Dean 00:01:09  so, you know, I'm not a big personally on like New Year's resolutions and stuff like that, but I do like kind of taking a, a look at what happened in the year that just passed and like, what is it I want to do in the year that's coming forward? that's coming. So, yeah. And I think we do that sometimes around like the back to school time and stuff like that. There's different times of year where that happens. But yeah, I think, Happy New Year is a good time of year to kind of look and see where we're at.

    Nikki Fraser 00:01:40  So I know we spent three hours honestly, like planning out our 2025 year. And we have so many exciting things coming up of launching a new course, kind of an in-between course of our, of our foundation and our clinical. So which is going to be really amazing for anyone who's, you know, a naturopathy, chiropractor, an RMT who want more than just the basics that our foundation has. So it's going to be leveled up a little bit, but it won't be quite as in depth of our 475 hour one.

    Nikki Fraser 00:02:16  So that's going to be super, super exciting.

    Rachael Dean 00:02:18  I feel a little bit more achievable for people who are already super busy and, you know, just need something that will take them to that next level, and that they can maybe pair with other modalities and stuff like that too. Exactly.

    Nikki Fraser 00:02:31  And for that one, the the anatomy and physiology, if you already have it is important. so we have a lot of students who inquire, you know, I already have a amp. Do I need to take it again? So this one, this one I think will help you out. Yeah.

    Rachael Dean 00:02:50  Yeah. So that's going to launch later in the year. So we don't have a specific timeline, but it's definitely incoming. and then we have multiple mini courses that are upcoming at least one a quarter. So that is our goal. Nikki's been working on a bunch that she'll be teaching, and we'll definitely bring in some special guests as well, for sure.

    Nikki Fraser 00:03:11  Yeah, I love the mini courses. You know, just great pocket sized information, I like to say of, you know, an hour or two and get to dive deep into something.

    Rachael Dean 00:03:22  Yeah, exactly. and then if you're looking for specific things, you know, if you're looking if you're one of our students and want a specific course, mini course, let us know what it is, reach out to us and send us an email. Because, you know, pretty much anything's on the table at this time.

    Nikki Fraser 00:03:37  Yeah. Or even even just if you want more videos. Right. We have our, our Facebook group, love essential oils with Essentia. And I go live in there every Friday almost. And usually it's focusing on subtle aromatherapy. But I love doing little educational snippets in there also. So if you ever want to learn more about, you know, a know, specific oil and ailment, how to do anything right, like just learn more about something specifically. You know, I'm, I'm, I love jumping in for 5 to 10 minutes and talking about something and sharing that that information.

    Rachael Dean 00:04:12  Exactly. And love essential love.

    Nikki Fraser 00:04:15  Essential oils with Essentia. I know it's the it's the love.

    Rachael Dean 00:04:18  Essential oils with the centra is an open Facebook group to people who just want to learn. So we also have a student group. So if you're looking at the Sentra you might find the other one. But the The Love group is for anybody. So if you aren't an actual student of ours yet, in one of our certification courses, then you're welcome in the other group for sure. And you get lots of. That's where all the fun stuff is happening right now, because Nikki does all the the subtle. She pulls cards and does lots of fun stuff there for sure. Yeah, yeah.

    Nikki Fraser 00:04:50  the other thing I like to remind people too, is, you know, we talked about our goal setting is we did a podcast, first, the first year that we launched in January about breaking through limiting beliefs. So if you go way back and I believe we also share, probably almost every January. But if you go back, I believe it's episode 24.5, might show up as 25 type thing. But if you go back to the January's, you'll see the podcast called Breaking Through Limiting Beliefs.

    Nikki Fraser 00:05:19  And I it's a practice that I did years ago in a program that I was part of, and it was absolutely amazing just to kind of really dive deep into what are my limiting beliefs, what's holding me back from maybe achieving my next level of, you know, for business? It's it's more so for anyone who's in business. But you can also do it, you know, for family or anything else of what's holding you back and kind of looking at that a little bit more.

    Rachael Dean 00:05:47  Yeah. And I will once we post this one, I'll repost the other one too, so people don't have to go searching all the way back because there's a lot of podcasts now. We've done, we've we've done a lot. Yes. So so yeah, I think just generally like we are excited about 2025, I think we had a fabulous 2024. you know, so many things happened and, we had tons of guests on on vetiver vibes. So, you know, definitely go back if you've missed episodes and check them out.

    Rachael Dean 00:06:15  There's so many different topics, that you can learn about. And one of the things I think is great about that is understanding that when you're taking these aromatherapy courses and certification courses, you can then go out into whatever it is that is super interesting to you and like create the business or the life that you want and find ways to just make it work for you. So and there's so many different options and people want all of it. So yeah. Yeah.

    Nikki Fraser 00:06:45  Absolutely. All right. So here's to an amazing 2025 everybody. May you have peace, love and prosperity I always like to say yes.

    Rachael Dean 00:06:54  Happy new year.

    Nikki Fraser 00:06:56  Happy new year. Bye everyone. Bye
