10X Your Income By Stepping Into Your Gifts: A Case Study with Ali Kates | Ep 32
with Celinne Da Costa
Listen on ...
What does it look like to truly own your power, find full confidence in your soul gifts, and turn them into a successful business? Today we dive deep into the incredible story of one of my clients, Ali Kates, a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach.
In this episode, we explore how Ali has rewritten her story of success and moved from playing small to boldly answering her Soul’s calling.
Ali came to me as a naturally intuitive and empathic person, but not having fully come to the space where she could own that yet… this was affecting her ability to run a successful business. She was burnt out, and frustrated. She felt stuck and like no matter how hard she worked on her business, something would end up derailing her.
During the past 1.5 years of working together, Ali has made some incredible transformations.
By doing the inner work, she was able to regain her confidence in herself and her abilities and align her business to her vision. She let go of her people-pleasing tendencies and built a practice of high-quality, ideal clients, allowing her to 10x her rates and make her investment back in just 2 months!
EPISODE INSIGHTS:
▪️The cost of “cookie cutter” business strategies that neglect nervous system health
▪️Excavating limiting beliefs and childhood conditioning blocking your potential
▪️Learning to be guided by intuition versus others’ expectations
▪️Cultivating self-trust to confidently share your gifts with the world
▪️Creating work that matters by getting clear on your “why”
▪️Investing in yourself to accelerate outer success
HIGHLIGHT QUOTES:
When it comes to growing your business, it’s not just about a strategy. It’s really about that ability to trust yourself, to own who you are, and to be able to listen to your intuition.

Something would totally derail me because I wasn’t embodied and empowered in my decision in my business.

I really believed in myself, that I could do it, and that I was put here to do this. And I made that money back in two months. I 10x my rate.

When you slow down and get aligned, things speed up. It’s not as quickly as you do. It’s as quickly as you align.
Celinne Da Costa
Celinne is a gift to this earth and so connected. What surprised me doing this work was the spiritual side and being connected to the universe, God, and nature.

MEET ALI KATES
As a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach & Somatic Experience Practitioner Ali believes that trauma & emotional pain is not just about what happened to you, but how it left your nervous system after said event.
The thing that people do not realize about trauma is that it cannot be “out talked” or “out thought”, it lives in the BODY. Most people that Ali works with have tried almost everything under the sun to work on themselves and their emotional pain/trauma but nothing seems to move the needle until they address the trauma stored in the body.
The body remembers everything even if your mind forgets and this is why in Ali’s coaching practice she focuses largely on the BODY. When trauma is stored in the body for too long it will start manifesting in disease, autoimmune, gut dysbiosis, skin issues, fatigue, weight gain, and more. The key to working through this is learning the tools to move it out of your body.
