A podcast for multi-skilled coaches and experts who are ready to leverage their unique expertise, create money overflow all while embodying ease. Real conversations about integration, embodiment, and building a business that honors all of who you are. Solo episodes, guest interviews, and guided meditations.
Welcome. Today, I'm here with Alika. I'm very happy that you want to do this, Alika. Alika is almost graduate of Elevate and already graduate of Embodied Vision. So I wanted to talk about the two programs that we've done and that you've done and your journey in it and really share that because I think it's a really beautiful one.
Relinde Moors:Just a little intro. Alika lives in Spain with her gorgeous family in a gorgeous home. She is a transformational coach and she is really like she has a lot of modalities. The typical multi skills is like systemic work, And Qigong and energy work, conscious work and now also the embodied vision certification, you did that with me. You really bring together a lot of things.
Relinde Moors:Is there anything I missed? Aliko, welcome. Anything that you want to share about yourself that I didn't say in this intro?
Alieke van Esterik:No, so far all good. Yeah, I'm happy here in Spain. It's a good place to be.
Relinde Moors:Yes. And to dive right in, Ryan, because we met about a bit longer than a year ago, you've worked really hard, you've been through some really highs and lows. And right now what I'm celebrating and what you're celebrating is that you're running your own group coaching program, you're using your different modalities, you're using embodied vision in that. But I want to like break down what happened. So maybe before, like when we met, what was the place that you were in?
Relinde Moors:Like, what did that look like?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, I just moved back to Spain. So I was setting up my business again in a new place. And I did different things. So I had more my sessions individually, like a Reiki session, a subconscious cleaning session, or family consolation. I was teaching Qigong at the beach.
Alieke van Esterik:I still do because that's really what I like to do as well, to be on the beach and do Qigong. But when I saw the programme and what you offer in Elevate, to really bring it together and to have a programme where you have the different items, modalities, mechanisms in a programme, That was really what I didn't have. And yeah, it was more a little bit a question like, how do I position myself? What is my brand? What is my business?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah,
Relinde Moors:absolutely. And tell me a bit about how, discover? Like what did that journey look like for you? Because now you're really clear on that. Like what did that look like for you in the past year?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, it was a good start to really, well, question yourself, basically, back to yourself, because that is when you start into the program in the modules, it's like finding your why, your one thing. And it's really about the gene keys, I really love the gene keys. A lot of insights, but also a lot of yeah, it's not about the confirmation, but it's more like the things. Ah, okay. So that's what it is.
Alieke van Esterik:So I really like the gene keys.
Relinde Moors:Let me give some context. Love that you bring that up. So in Elevate, one of the things I say is like, okay, we're multi skills, but there's some red thread that binds all these skills together that comes through you. And I love to use Gene Keys for that because they almost resonate with everyone. So they also resonate with you.
Relinde Moors:So what we do is we do meditation. You go and do your own journaling, but you also look at what do those gene keys say about basically your why, like your bigger thing. Like, why are you here? What is it that you which transformation are you here to facilitate for people? Tell us more about what you found there.
Alieke van Esterik:That I'm a big, well, questioner in life. So I ask a lot of questions. And I think I do. I'm curious, adventurous. And everything I do, learning, studying, it's actually not only for myself, it's more to share that with other people.
Alieke van Esterik:So in that way, working as a coach, it's beautiful. And to really open doors to new things, new realms people don't know about it, and to really try to let them discover into new experiences. And I had quite some new experiences myself this year as well. So it's really about the steps you take, and to really enjoy these. It's not about the goal, like there's where we need to go, and that's where we need to be.
Alieke van Esterik:But it's really enjoying the steps we take in our journey. So to share. Yeah, then my biggest thing is to stay healthy for myself and to be able to all do this is patience. So I work a lot on patience.
Relinde Moors:Beautiful insights. I love that moment you said as well, where you say like, I opened the door for people like, that's what I'm hearing, like almost like you lift the feel. It's like, oh, we live in a certain world. We have certain beliefs and ways of seeing. But, hey, there might be more than that.
Relinde Moors:And then it opens to subconscious work and systemic work and spirituality and energetic stuff. Yeah. Beautiful. So then this is how that flows. So just because I'm explaining a little bit, if somebody's listening to this podcast, they might not know, but I have the Elevate Mastermind where I teach you all this and where, you know, you learn also how to sell it.
Relinde Moors:But you said it really nicely when we talked just before this, we started to record. Like there's almost two pillars. There's one really building that business, finding your message, doing all that stuff. But then there's also embodied vision sessions, as I call them. And I'd love to hear your experience with that from the beginning.
Relinde Moors:How would you explain what we do there?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah. Well, the beauty of these sessions, and I do remember the first ones I did, I was also like, what's happening here? I also have this cross in front of me with the beliefs, the limiting one, the empowering one. But what is it that you do? And after a couple of sessions, you really feel also what actually is happening.
Alieke van Esterik:And the beauty of it is that it's all on your subconscious level.
Relinde Moors:How about that look like that? If you say, I felt it, like what is it that you felt? So how can you explain that after this session?
Alieke van Esterik:Well, created most of them straight away after the session an audio. So I had the empowering one with all my gifts and the desires. So I repeated these and I was listening to my own voice for a couple of days. But I had one big one. And yeah, I can share that.
Alieke van Esterik:It's like have your own business and be able allow myself to have a successful business and be in a loving relationship at the same time. That was one where I had to shift that. And that now I see the way my husband is supporting me, the way our relationship is like developing and growing. Yeah, I'm really happy. I'm really happy to feel that and to experience that and to notice that, to see that in my daily life.
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, it was really a big one.
Relinde Moors:Wow, thank you for sharing that. And that's amazing that that shifted in your relationship, in your daily life, in your business. So just to give a little bit more context for people listening to this, because I know we're into this, but so what we do is we look in this session at what are the things that may be not flowing as easily? And then we look at like, what could be those beliefs? For example, I cannot have a successful business and a loving relationship at the same time.
Relinde Moors:We muscle test it, right? So there's, we're using actually kinesiology to ask the subconscious mind, Hey, is this what I believe in my subconscious mind? Because sometimes we think that that's the one, but it isn't. And then when you find it, we spend about an hour together in the group going through different elements of different reasons that the subconscious mind is not wanting to accept the positive belief just yet. And I think that's also what you're saying, like, oh, you realize that.
Relinde Moors:Is there like, because you already did a lot of subconscious work, did energy work, there might be overlap. Are there things that clicked for you or that felt like now all of these things start to even make more sense? Tell me about that. Any personal insights?
Alieke van Esterik:One of the sessions I also do, it's like a subconscious cleaning, I call it, and it's really like on different levels, on different themes, and then there is an intake before we go into that session. So there are definitely links because it's also about breaking patterns and where does it come from. You also go back in years in your life. But the beauty of an embodied vision, it's like, well, you can maybe better explain it, but you also don't want to overexplain because then people start thinking too much. But it's like, you can do it in an hour, hour and a half, and you really have something tangible.
Alieke van Esterik:And with the subconscious cleaning, it's not that tangible. Sometimes people go home and it really needs to settle. And a day, two days or a week later, you know, there will be things happening in your life. I had a client, she called me three months later, and her daughter was like seeing her and saying, Mom, you changed, what did you do? And very positive.
Alieke van Esterik:So that has a different effect. But this what I like with the embodied vision, can give the empowering belief and make that into an affirmation. So there's something like a little bit more tangible.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. I like that you say that. I think it is that combination of it's very much like just like, oh, be in the subconscious, don't have to overthink it. But at the same time, I now know where this came from. Or I see people having realizations that are like, oh my God, I never realized my mother actually believed this.
Relinde Moors:And that's why I also took that belief for, and that can really be, you know, create big shifts, right?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah. Yeah. It really has big impacts.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. And so then, so you were in Elephant, you were experiencing these sessions, and then I ran another round of embodied vision certification. You did that, you completed it, and now you're using it in your group program. So tell me how that is, like tell me what you see with your clients.
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, it's really nice. And last week I had the first sessions with the group, so it's beautiful to guide people through it and that they really experience the moment. And really like, I was not aware of that, you know, if I couldn't imagine myself that was what I was thinking, or that was my belief. But it's nice to hear later after the session that it really did something for them, that they made a shift. And to see that, yeah, they feel just lighter.
Alieke van Esterik:And they are just like, oh, wow. And it's not always that easy to put in words, but you can see again people faces before and after. And that's also with the subconscious gleaning, sometimes like, oh, you should take a picture before and after. But it's just the energy, it's a release in the body as well. And it's also a very calming session really in your own space, in your own well, not in your body, but you're in your own space.
Relinde Moors:Yeah, I love that. It is an inner world journey in a way. It's like going deep into your own space and letting go of what doesn't serve you and restoring, I would say restoring yourself to yourself because it's not like you were broken before that. It's just there was something blocking the energy to flow from its natural way of flowing. Yeah.
Relinde Moors:Beautiful. And so shifting a little bit again to more like business building topics. So you went also through a journey in the past year really figuring out that big question that we all have. If we want to serve people, who do I serve? And what is it that I help them with?
Relinde Moors:And you've come to a really beautiful, clear, like persona that you're helping. Tell us more about who you help, like what you help them with. Yeah,
Alieke van Esterik:it's, well, women are facing like a transition, a change in their lives, and how to go from one point where they are right now to the other point to step into a new chapter in their life. And it could be changes in your body, it could be changes if you are a mother, kids are leaving the house, so your role is changing. Your role can also change as a partner, maybe relationship is ending. So it's like there's a new phase coming on, and people can feel it, they notice it, and they have more time on hand, but they don't know actually what they would like to do, and what is next for me in my life. So it's really helping them to figure out, okay, who am I, as a person, as Alika, and not as the mother or the partner or a friend or the daughter?
Alieke van Esterik:No, who am I? Because I also met a lot of people, and I did it myself. It's not putting yourself on number one, because we're not used to that. We maybe don't allow ourselves to do that. But my big thing is, my belief is if you put yourself on number one, which is not selfish, you can really better help the people around you, the loved ones around you, because you are in a better energy, in a better flow.
Alieke van Esterik:And that is what people feel around you. So holding things back and not go to this, well, like a trip or a retreat or read your book an hour a day, it doesn't matter what it is, but really find your thing, what you would like to do. And if you feel like you're kind of stuck one way or the other, that's where you can find, okay, how can we open it? How can we take away that feel, the feeling of being stuck somewhere? Or like, I want to move forward, but I don't know.
Alieke van Esterik:Somebody was there in my Masterclass a week ago, like, I want to change careers because this is not what I want, but I don't know how. Maybe I'm a little anxious to do that, a little fear. I don't know what's waiting for me then. So really give them more tools and also more like the certainty like, we can all change, we can all change. And it doesn't matter what age you are.
Alieke van Esterik:As long as you are open and willing to do some work, because I always say it's work. And
Relinde Moors:that pathway is what you provide, of course, in such a beautiful way, all the different where you open the doors for people to like having the Qigong and having, we were talking about your program now, Shift, where you combine, we give them some Qigong meditation and then life and body vision sessions, right? Which is such a beautiful way to open up possibilities rather than thinking this chapter is ending. So now there's an end and there's actually something completely new happening. Tell us a little bit about the journey of finding that because I know it sounds now you're like, okay, great. I have this.
Relinde Moors:It's very clear. You are running ads. You are having a webinar that's working. You're building you know, you're having your funnel up. You're testing different things.
Relinde Moors:You're getting people into your program. But it hasn't always been that way. And I know that I like to also talk about that because to it's important, yeah, to share that it can be a journey to find this. So tell us a little bit about what that looked like for you.
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, so when I started in February, then we had at one point of time the brand story, I created a masterclass Ignite, it's still the masterclass Ignite, but it had a different topic, a different theme. It was really about finding your inner fire again, ignite your inner fire.
Relinde Moors:Yeah, in a way it was the same, I think, but it was less specific, because
Alieke van Esterik:you didn't get it. It was a little more high level. And then after summer, I did two more of them. And then we started to work on a different content. The subconscious mind was always there.
Alieke van Esterik:That's a big topic in the Ignite, the whole subconscious mind and how does it work. But I was also at that time the embodied vision coach. So I had some sessions with with me with the embodied vision. And there I found more and I realised it's really people with a new chapter in their life. And the biggest one, the biggest shift for me was the client I had.
Alieke van Esterik:She became a widow recently, and she really wanted to create the next chapter in her life. Like, what is it what I'm going to do and how I'm going to do that? And who am I? That was a big question for her.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. And that gave you the realization like, hey, wait a minute, this is exactly actually what I help with. Yeah. Yeah. And I like that you shared that because sometimes we think that we need to figure that all out, but you went and did it and tested things and had moments where it did work and where it didn't work.
Relinde Moors:And through that, you could clarify, okay, really, this is what it is. And I think that that's brilliant in one year time to really nail that and have that going. That is, you know, well done. That's only because you kept going. So you have something called resilience.
Relinde Moors:So there's, there's months. How did, did, and this is maybe a little bit of leading question, but I'm so curious of it. Did the embodied vision work that we do, did it help with that? And how did it?
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, definitely helped because there were, I don't know how many sessions we do in a year, but quick calculation. I don't know. It's a lot.
Relinde Moors:Before, like live sessions, yeah, a year.
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, and I did some on my own, because then you're testing, you're like, oh, this is one I want to work on in my own time. So that definitely helped me changing and finding really my message. Who am I? Because I also shifted that, didn't know exactly who I was.
Relinde Moors:That was a belief that came up, right? Like, I don't know who I am. A belief. And
Alieke van Esterik:a friend of mine told me just recently this week, because she left me an audio and I did some retreats with her in The Netherlands, I was working with her. And she told me like, she said, Oh, I really see you changing. And I see you more becoming you. And that was really beautiful to hear.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. Wow. And I think that's what even for you to step into this phase, hey, I'm gonna build my own business, I'm gonna do this thing that you were already doing, but I'm gonna take that to the next level. You said it, I think that it triggers so much growth. Like, it triggers so much personal growth.
Relinde Moors:But also, is that part of like, hey, for you, I think also personally, if it's okay to share that your kids were, like, leaving the house and that you have this, like, space and, like, what what do I wanna do with it? And it's actually being of service, like, sharing all these things that I've seen. Right? So but in order to step into that, you are doing your own work. So that is so beautiful to see.
Relinde Moors:And and, yeah, for me, the same. I think that's just really part of it. Yeah. Is there anything else that you would want to share that I haven't asked?
Alieke van Esterik:No, I'm just, well, I'm really happy. And I'm really well, I also feel blessed that I found you and the programme. And it also gives you a lot of energy, I think, the shifting of the beliefs, because the energy I had in sometimes I was like, wow, I'm really doing a lot, I'm creating a lot. Yeah, sometimes I'm really kind of like amazed by myself, I must say.
Relinde Moors:Yeah, it brings it, the expression becomes bigger because we don't, you know, they don't blob. So you actually can write and create the next thing and do the next thing. I love that. That's such a beautiful thing.
Alieke van Esterik:And it's rolling, you know, and like we just talked about it just before the big, well, the big help of chat, I cannot leave that one out.
Relinde Moors:We were talking about like, let me fill that in. We were talking about Chateapity. And now because you started your own business, you're like, I'm keeping up with all this new stuff that's happening and using Chattypedia for me to write emails and to write certain things. And it's true. It's such a fast development.
Relinde Moors:We can't ignore it. And, yeah, it's really cool. And you're you're getting really good at it. I looked at emails yesterday that you'd written, new emails, and I was like, that's such a great sequence. Yeah, very cool.
Alieke van Esterik:Yeah, so it's really well, that's a big bonus to be where I am now, to also have that knowledge a bit and to really have at least some knowledge about what's happening and working with Gocia on the Facebook ads, you know, it's like, it's a new world for me. Yeah, this Facebook is like big.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. And you're rocking it. I think that whole world also of the social media, which I think you weren't a huge fan of when you came in or wanted to
Alieke van Esterik:even be off. Right? Yeah. I just canceled everything.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. You just canceled your Facebook and everything. Then you made it work for you. That's how I perceive it, at least. Is that how you feel?
Alieke van Esterik:True, because I remember one day you said something beautiful. It's also the way you connect with people, and you find your people, your like minded people, your community, your tribe. And that's true. So you can also learn a lot and see a lot. And well, the beauty of it was a year ago, we had dinner with my family with the girls, and suddenly Claire said, there's a friend, she's 500 meters away.
Alieke van Esterik:And they were from Dubai. We lived in Dubai. So it seemed that this family was on a holiday in Spain where we were having dinner. And the next day we met the whole family and had lunch together.
Relinde Moors:Exactly. And it goes from the Snapchat.
Alieke van Esterik:Snapchat to lunch. Lunch and
Relinde Moors:to real life and to real hugs and to connect again. Yeah.
Alieke van Esterik:So that was, it was, it's beautiful.
Relinde Moors:Yeah. And that's the same for me, like with Instagram or Facebook ads is like, wow, you find people that are your actual meant to be clients that you really love working with. And that, I don't know, for me, it still feels magical when that happens. And that's what you're doing now too. Amazing.
Relinde Moors:Alika, how can we find you? Where do you want us to? Do you have anything that you want to share? Your masterclass? Let us know where people who are interested in the work that you do could go.
Alieke van Esterik:To my website. And I have another masterclass coming up, Ignite, and it will be the April 2.
Relinde Moors:We will make The
Alieke van Esterik:shift program is running. So you can find it on my website on the sales page. And there you can just book the shift program or book a call with me.
Relinde Moors:Yeah, highly recommended. Beautiful blend of embodied vision work and embodiment work and Qigong for people that are really facing that. There's big change. It might feel like an ending where there's no, that's actually a big transformation. And I think you guide women in that so beautifully and graciously.
Relinde Moors:Highly recommend. We'll make sure to share those links in the show notes. If you listen to this after the April 2 in 2025, we'll make sure that there's a link to get to the website or to sign up for Aliko to reach out to her. Thank you so much, Aliko. It's really beautiful that we got a moment to tell your story.
Relinde Moors:Thank you for doing that.
Alieke van Esterik:Thank you. Yeah, it was really nice to do. Yeah.
