The collective is

dreaming

through you.

The collective is dreaming through you.

You are here to help raise collective consciousness and shift paradigms.

You are a bridge to other Worlds of being, feeling, relating, creating…

You see beyond what is to all that Could Be. You are a visionary.

What if the Vision works both ways?

It sees you, just as you see it. It believes in you, and asks that you believe in it.

What you seek is seeking you: More love, healing, abundance, and freedom for the collective and earth are seeking to Become through you.

We are taught to project our worst imaginations onto each other: we fear judgment, criticism, ridicule, rejection. But what about all the love that wants to find you?

What about all the people who want to celebrate and support you — they may just not know it yet?

I call this the principle of Collective Dreaming:

Your dreams are not purely your own; the collective is dreaming through you…

  • Audiences dream of the words you long to speak.

  • Podcast guests dream of the space you long to hold, and listeners dream of the insights you bring.

  • Readers dream of the worlds you long to build.

We are all looking for aligned voices to support and believe in. Why not yours?

I know: perfectionism, fear, and self-doubt can get in your way.

I have faced each of these obstacles, and alchemized my deepest fears into my greatest purpose.

Bringing you my experience of alchemizing fear into love by:

🌻 sharing my voice and growing a combined audience of over 450K across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Substack

🌻 becoming a certified spiritual life & soul purpose coach

🌻 earning an MBA from Harvard

🌻 being a soul-led creator, podcast host, and soulpreneur

I am here to help you:

🚀 Create with Love instead of Fear.

🚀 Express from Soul instead of Ego.

Let’s begin.

Hello, divine being 🥰

Let’s take your creativity to the next level.

You are here because you are ready to go deeper.

Maybe you feel that I am meant to help guide you on your path.

Or that there is something we are meant to create together.

1 on 1 coaching is an individualized, tailor-made experience. Heart-made just for you.

In this space, I seek to give you my fullest love, celebration, presence, wisdom and expertise. I seek to channel and share what comes through to support your highest creativity and good.

Each session includes:

✨ Introduction: discuss what brings you here, holding a loving, beautiful space for your dreams and fears

✨ Creative Activation: a guided meditation tailor-made to your situation, helping you either visualize your dreams more deeply, connect with other timelines of self, expand your possibilities, or connect with your ego and soul planes (this is my clients’ favorite part of the session)

✨ Reflection: connect and unpack what insights came through for you in the Activation, meeting you with loving wisdom, channeled insights, and mindset shifts to help you identify limiting beliefs

✨ Brave Action: identify one key, POTENT actionable next step, what I call your “One Brave Action” for the next 1-2 weeks.

Loving Disclaimer 👀

  • Client values: I work best with clients who are both soulful/spiritual and action-oriented (or trying to be!) You are here to connect to the 5D plane (the infinite realm, however it appears to you — Source, God, Universe, Cosmos, Love, Spirit) and bring your highest creations forth into the 3D plane (material reality).

    It doesn’t matter if you have no clue what that means: you are a curious seeker, always looking to expand, learn, and grow — AND seeking ways to celebrate the abundance of all you already are. You are willing to take uncomfortable actions as you unlock your next level — you just crave support, guidance, and different perspectives to help you do so.

  • Results: There is a natural limit to the transformation a single session can offer. Doing this work on a longer-term basis will lead to the greatest and most sustainable transformation. For this reason, I offer a Buy 4 get 1 free discount.

  • Accessibility: I see a very limited amount of 1:1 clients. Payment plans are available here. The next best thing to coaching with me is definitely: Creative Activations.

Testimonials 🦋

“As a coach, Ayanda is thoughtful, perceptive, affirming, empathetic, intriguing, motivating, and visionary. She made me feel so seen, understood, and encouraged. Ayanda empowered me to look at myself with awe and compassion, consider ways to make it easier for me in each of my creative roles (podcaster, comedian, editor, etc.), and to view my dreams as worthy, helpful, and attainable.

As a result of one coaching session with Ayanda, with renewed excitement and purpose, I brought a grand creative idea into reality on my desired schedule, received a clearer, more beautiful, and expansive vision of what was possible for me as a creative, got several actionable cognitive reframings to assist me in more easily and effectively sharing my work, and was better able to communicate my vision to my collaborators and supporters. This list is non-exhaustive though—I got SO MUCH from the experience!

I feared the loftiness of my dreams, that I would somehow be overwhelmed by my creativity before I could effectively share it, and that I would tamp down my desires due to misinterpreting the level of engagement or enthusiasm I felt from others. Since I so admire and appreciate Ayanda's perspectives and vision, I felt she would be the perfect person to walk through my fears with me and help me arrive at a place of clarity and inspiration.

My session with Ayanda exceeded my expectations. To anyone on the fence, this will be one of the best, savviest, low-risk, high-yield investments you will ever make. Working with Ayanda 1:1 is an invaluable resource and empowering experience that will take you to a new level of intimacy, understanding, and admiration of your own genius and creative practice. The Collective will benefit directly from you choosing to work with her."

— Sheba

My session with Ayanda was a life-changing experience. The magical synchronicity of our co-creation is a constant reminder for me that we are not alone. This new sense of unconditional trust towards the universe that Ayanda and I cultivated through my session with her will stay with me for many lifetimes to come. I love her and I’m so grateful for her. My session with Ayanda exceeded my expectations.

Ayanda has an incredible gift for holding space for others. She sees the light in everyone she encounters and expands people's sense of their own authenticity. I truly believe that Ayanda has this rare ability to offer the perfect kind of support that each person needs. I feel deeply grateful for how Ayanda listens with such care and presence. Being with her feels like stepping into a space where I can be truly vulnerable. I feel so empowered to embrace my authentic self and creativity because of it.

To me, Ayanda has this angelic presence—so rare, so beautifully unique—words can hardly capture it. Her perspective, and the way she reaffirms our shared connection and collective consciousness, created this energy that felt so safe, loving, and deeply inspiring. I just knew I could trust her with my whole existence for that.

To anyone on the fence, I would say: ‘My love, are you ready to let go of your comfort of familiarity? Are you ready for growth and change? Are you ready to step into your creative power and stand in vulnerability with your authenticity?' I bet it’s a YES, otherwise, you wouldn’t be here :) You are safe. It is safe for you to open your heart and be misunderstood. It’s safe to experience this perfect unfolding for the benefit of us all.’"

Hello, Loving Visionary

You've always wanted to do something BIG.

Recently, you’ve been feeling a strong & undeniable pull to create your next level that you can no longer ignore.

It feels like the synchronicities are screaming at you at this point. Absurd coincidences, messages and signs from the universe all point towards a deeper truth you’ve known but are finally ready to EMBODY:

  • Creating is part of your ESSENCE and PURPOSE on earth. you are an artist. you are a creator. you are a VISIONARY. and you are done minimizing and hiding from your gifts to please other people.

  • You are heart-centered and service-oriented. You long to make a loving impact on the people you are here to serve.

Your sensitivity makes you a natural artist/creator, but it also makes the fear of failing, being a beginner, being judged, seen, or cancelled, and stepping into a version of yourself that people around you may reject, completely terrifying, and at times unbearable, to you.

Deep connection, community, and belonging are your core values, even if you don’t het have the opportunity to fully experience them. You sense your art could be a portal to the kind of loving community you seek.

You long to be understood, and yet many people around you seem not to understand you… through your art, you long to meet and attract more people you truly resonate with and fellow artists you can scheme, dream, & collaborate with.

The people you’re afraid will judge you are not who your art is for. And the only way to FIND those people is to keep creating, taking inspired action, acting with loving, self-compassionate courage in the face of fear.

My own creative process as a podcaster, writer, and video creator is full of fear — very much including what you are reading now. I’ve been tortured by perfectionism: with hundreds of video drafts and dozens of essay drafts that are probably each good enough.

Over the past 3 years, I’ve developed the tools, mindsets, and practices to alchemize the fear of making a mess, not being good enough, being seen, judged, and cancelled into HONORING my calling and boldly create and share my voice and work online. A combined audience of 400,000 divine beings have joined me on this journey.

Along the way, I have learned lessons that can support creatives who want to share themselves in public, AND those who are seeking to find their creative freedom in private. Neither path is more valid. I am here to guide you in the direction YOU seek.

To create the World that we must — a world rooted in love, community, and liberation — we cannot let fear stop us from honoring our creative voices. We must refuse to let conditioning and commodification narrow or water us down (calling all multi-passionates!). You deserve the creative expression you crave and fear most. And you deserve support in clarifying your purpose as a creator: What are you here to create? What are you here to help cause? And importantly, in turn: What will you refuse to let fear stop you from doing?

If you’re still here, I sense you feel that I could support you on your journey. My methodology combines spirituality AND strategy. Spiritually, I would LOVE to be a safe space for you to go deeper: let’s talk about the universe, service, purpose, your shadow, and your calling.

Strategically, I can support you on tactical steps to help you define, start or finish your dream creative projects, giving you tools that I use to turn my visions into concrete projects and realities, as well as online growth strategy for those of you calling in online visibility.

Book a one-time coaching call ✨to discuss your creative desires and current blocks, and gain more clarity on how to get unstuck on ONE to TWO main blocks so that you can more deeply honor your calling.

These coaching sessions are a sacred space and require deep presence and love from both of us. If you are ready to be supported by a loving, nurturing, passionate, spiritually rooted AND action-oriented, process-driven, strategy-minded coach, I invite you to take the next step below. 🦋🌼✨

How I can help you 🤗

  • Clarity & Vision: Clarify what you are here to create and WHY

  • Purpose & Pleasure: Find more joy, meaning, and PLEASURE in every aspect of your creative process

  • Guidance & Support: Receive personalized coaching tailored to your unique journey as I help guide and CELEBRATE you along the way, while providing loving accountability to the goals you set

    Project Growth: Launch, nurture, and grow your creative projects with spiritual, creative, and business guidance, tailored to your specific needs and desires

I help you finally create from your
soul’s deepest desires
instead of your
ego’s greatest fears.

My journey
led me to yours 💛

Four years ago, I would not have even described myself as creative. I was working a corporate job my values did not align to, surrounded by many leaders I did not hope to become, and telling myself that one day it would all make sense.

I started a TikTok during that time, and committed to stick through the cringe and embarrassment I felt.

The idea of people I knew laughing at me haunted me. But on some level — even when my videos were getting 14 views — I saw a vision for myself that I held true to.

Everything changed. I met two of my best, deepest, soul friends. I began my spiritual awakening, especially through my Saturn Return. I started seeing myself as deeply creative (we all are) and reconnecting with my inner child and inner artist.

I stopped drinking alcohol, refusing to drown out the parts of me that felt shameful or unacceptable. I started dancing more (in private) as I realized I had a childhood wound and limiting belief that I couldn’t dance (and also that this meant that I shouldn’t!).

Most importantly, I found and embodied my purpose: to use my voice to serve collective consciousness — despite my fears, which persist today. To honor the oral tradition and voice gifted to me by my ancestors.

I started a podcast (now my favorite soul-aligned work). And my audience lovingly reflected back to me the parts of my soul I had not yet claimed as precious and wonderful.

Through the process of sharing my ideas on the internet, which we are often taught to view as somehow shallow or suspect, I deeply and spiritually transformed. And I would love to help you do the same: alchemize the path you feel called to (whether or not it’s sharing yourself online!) into your deepest healing.

Now, I am able to connect the dots between spirituality (my coaching and life path), business (3 years of experience in corporate + an MBA), philosophy (my undergrad degree), and creativity (my daily obsession and life’s work) to help my clients live and embody their fullest, most abundant expression.

I care deeply about PLEASURE, EASE, JOY, as well as PURPOSE, ALIGNED ACTION, and developing a STRATEGY that aligns to your long-term goals.

I invest deep love, care, and attention into my clients, and I am looking to coach people who are a mutual, full body, FUCK YES. This work requires commitment, stepping into discomfort, and facing a purpose that is bigger than any of our individual fears or resistance towards it.

I firmly believe that collective change requires each of us to own our gifts and their expression.

I also firmly believe in magic, and seek it in everyday life. Let’s find and make more of it, together.

how we’ll breathe life into your dreams 🔥

our work together 🥰

The beauty of your coaching experience is that it will be highly individualized to your specific needs, goals, desires, and boundaries. We will dive deep on what you are seeking, your Big WHY behind it, and co-create 1-3 key BRAVE actions to help you get there. Some of the elements we can cover include:

What are the stories holding you back?

We’ll look into the fears, limiting beliefs, and stories that keep you from taking aligned action toward your dreams and purpose. Whether it’s “people think I’m annoying”, “no one cares what I have to say” or “I have no idea where to start” — we will do the deep mindset work to recover a deeper truth: that you were born with all the wisdom within you to recover and embody your fullest expression in this lifetime.

Dive deep on fear and limiting beliefs.

What are you here to help cause or create?

We will dive deep into why you are here, what you feel called to, and what your purpose is. We will honor the different evolutions of purpose you cycle through in a life time — centering what you feel most called to and excited about at this time.

Discover your soul’s purpose (dharma).

Learn by doing. Set and work on weekly goals

What weekly action will you commit to honor your calling?

Unlike a more therapeutic approach (trust me, I LOVE therapy but this isn’t that!) our work together is all about taking aligned action towards your dreams. Whether it’s finally starting that podcast, posting an IG reel 3x a week, or updating your website so your ideal clients can find you — we’ll dive into the soul-aligned work that will allow your dream reality to manifest in our shared one.

Receive accountability and support.

What could it look like if you were lovingly held accountable to your intended plan?

If you work with me on a longer term basis (12 week program), in our sessions, we’ll craft a weekly or bi-weekly plan for your creative process, discuss goals for the week ahead, obstacles faced the past week, and workshop how to overcome them. We’ll have a shared accountability tracker to keep track of your goals and progress. At the same time, we’ll deeply prioritize self-compassion, refusing to equate your worth to your productivity.

  • You have bee feeling the pull to live a life of more purpose and alignment. You can no longer ignore the feeling that you are here to help cause something bigger than you that you are not yet fully embodying. You seek to understand why you are here, and align your daily actions to your deeper calling(s).

    I have asked myself repeatedly: Why am I here? What am I here to help cause? And how can I align my actions to my soul’s calling?

    I have discovered I am not here to do just ONE thing, but live as a multi-dimensional and multi-passionate creator. This has meant creating systems to balance structure and flow that I would love to share with you.

    I am a certified Soul Purpose Coach through the Dharma Coaching Institute. I blend spirituality and strategy to align purpose and action.

    I would love to help you first DISCOVER your purpose, and then to take action in order to EMBODY it, in all its multiple dimensions (though perhaps not all at once!)

    Note: Fully discovering your purpose takes TIME. To get your most meaningful transformation, I highly recommend a 12 week package of weekly sessions with me. We can discuss this in your session if you are interested.

  • You have (one or more!) creative projects you can't stop thinking about.

    You've felt the pull and power of your idea. You’ve started and stopped and you really want to finish this project.

    The only problem is, you feel blocked by obstacles such as: perfectionism, overwhelm, self-doubt, comparison, the list goes on…

    What if there was a way you could overcome fear and take inspired action towards your dream?

    Let’s turn your FEAR or OVERWHELM into CLARITY and ACTION. You’re here because you feel called to create something that you are not yet fully honoring.

    The creative process is deeply alchemical and I can support you on dissolving blocks you may be experiencing in your practice.

    I combine the spiritual with the tactical. Tactically, I am an action-taker, bringing you my experience working in corporate for 3 years and receiving an MBA from Harvard.

  • You have always felt called to share your voice.

    You have a powerful message that you know could truly serve humanity. You’ve already received glimpses of the power of your voice, and you dream of your message reaching everyone it’s meant for. You may also be seeking support on clarifying the message(s) you are here to share.

    Friends and people you meet irl say things like, “I can’t stop thinking about that thing you said last time we were together” or “You really are wise beyond your years…”

    You know social media is important to scale your message, find your dream audience and clients, and achieve your fullest expression in this lifetime.

    The problem is, each time you try to record a video, story, live, or podcast — you feel blocked by fear, perfectionism, comparison, and overwhelm. You feel too “cringe” and fear the opinions of high school lurkers, judging you for evolving into your highest self.

    You have SO many ideas: you are high on ideation, imagination, vision — and at times, low on action.

    You are tired of allowing other people’s opinions of you and your own fears hold power over you.

    You know there is a whole other level of expression within you, just waiting to be unlocked. You want to heal your throat chakra and bravely share your voice and soul-aligned message with the world.

    You dream of serving the collective through your voice: speaking on stages, having a successful podcast, and being known for the powerful message you are here to share.

    To usher in a new paradigm of being, we need Visionary VOICES to boldly and lovingly share their message. We need YOU to share your gifts with the world. We are all one human body, and our boldest collective voice can no longer be blocked by our conditioning.

    Work with me to become your bravest voice and fullest expression — and craft a social media action plan that feels aligned to you in order to reach the ears and hearts dreaming of receiving and resonating with a voice like YOURS.

    Speaking is an ancient gift and technology that we were born to share with each other. Powerful voices UPLEVEL collective consciousness — and changing consciousness is how we change the world. The collective needs each of us to be in our fullest power. And for those of us who are here to speak new worlds into Being, we can’t hold ourselves back any longer.

    Let’s work together to recover your boldest voice.

where you are vs. where we’ll go

From:

Knowing you have a bigger calling but often feeling blocked by fear: What could go wrong? especially of judgment: What will they say?

To:

Embracing an abundance mindset: What could go right? Imagine if… Reclaiming your voice: I refuse to abandon myself to please others.

From:

Knowing you have BIG DREAMS and craving more structure and support towards them

To:

Having an uplifting coach that helps you DREAM BIGGER, + SYSTEMS in place to work towards long-term goals

From:

As an ambitious person, often tying your self-worth to your productivity and ability to meet your big goals

To:

Prioritizing self-compassion + celebrating ALL the wins, being regularly reminded you are AMAZING

Coaching FAQ

  • Coaching is a transformative practice designed to help you uncover and achieve your deepest aspirations. As your coach, my role is multifaceted: I am here to guide you through introspective questioning, actively listen and understand your unique challenges, provide unwavering support, and celebrate each milestone you reach. Importantly, I also serve as your accountability partner, gently but firmly ensuring you remain committed to your stated objectives. This process is not about giving you the answers, but rather empowering you to discover your own path forward, make meaningful decisions, and take actionable steps that align with your vision and values. Whether you're looking to make significant changes, overcome obstacles, or enhance your overall well-being, coaching provides the clarity, motivation, and support needed to transform your goals into reality.

  • Please note that coaching is no substitute for therapy or psychological support. Please continue to seek out the healing your soul needs most. To find liberation, we cannot SOLELY rely on western modalities of healing. At our core we are creative, wild beings who have been overly conditioned and repressed. My particular medicine is spiritual and sensual (i.e., we are trying to help you EMBODY the creative expression you feel called to through your SENSES and chakras). Coaching is action-oriented and focused on moving you towards your creative goals and dreams. While some reflections will overlap since our throat chakra healing is deeply intertwined with our life experiences, please note I am not a therapist or mental health professional, and I encourage you to consult with your therapist or healthcare provider if you require an additional opinion.

  • In a single coaching session, you can anticipate gaining clarity on specific issues, identifying actionable steps, and leaving with a sense of direction. The more specific you are about what you want to gain from the session, the better the results and value you will receive from it.

    While valuable, one session is naturally limited in scope. It serves as an introduction to the coaching process and an opportunity to explore a particular challenge or goal. For those seeking deeper transformation or long-term change, ongoing sessions are recommended.

    These allow us to build on the insights gained, delve further into underlying patterns, and support sustained progress and accountability. If you're looking to explore more profound shifts and achieve lasting results, consider committing to additional sessions where we can truly unlock your potential over time. We can discuss this option after your first session, if interested.

  • I do not offer discovery calls at this time. I have so much free content that that is my version of Discovery. If you have specific questions regarding the coaching experience, please reach out to support@ayandastood.com

  • I truly believe anyone can benefit from coaching. I am OBSESSED with this practice: both being on the giving and receiving end of it has truly transformed my life. If you have a goal that you can’t seem to align your action towards, OR you lack clarity on defining your goals, or you have so many ideas but struggle with the follow-through — basically if you have any block, coaching with an aligned coach can support you.

  • Absolutely! It’'s beneficial for you to work with an individualized coach at any level. We are all cycling through being beginners at different stages and in different mediums we work with.

  • While I am here to guide and support you, the ultimate responsibility for transformation lies with you. Committing to coaching requires a willingness to self-reflect, embrace vulnerability, and consistently apply the strategies and practices discussed during our sessions. It involves dedicating time and effort to develop your voice or craft, refine your message, and engage with the work we align on. The commitment level will vary based on your personal goals and the pace at which you wish to progress, but an open mindset and dedication to growth are essential for transformation.

  • We tackle obstacles by first acknowledging and understanding them. Through coaching, you'll learn to identify the specific fears and challenges that hinder your online expression. We then develop personalized strategies to address these issues, whether they involve improving your communication skills, enhancing your understanding of social media platforms, or building resilience against criticism. The goal is to equip you with the tools and confidence needed to navigate these obstacles effectively.

  • Cancellations more than 24 hours will be rescheduled at no cost. Cancellations less than 24 hours in advance will not be refunded. Missed sessions without proper notification will be charged as a normal session, as this time has been reserved and cannot be used for other clients.

  • Refunds for coaching calls are not available because I have already offered a limited session to you. For more information, please see my Terms & Conditions agreement.
