Bio
At 14, Alaina suffered a traumatic brain injury and her mother was told she'd have permanent brain damage. Her mother, who didn’t believe in the diagnosis, retrained her brain for a full recovery. Today, we call that neuroplasticity. Then, after 18 years as an attorney in the music industry and the EVP and Exec Board Member of the largest independent music company in the world, she lost everything. Her personal and professional life completely unraveled.
She became hyper-focused on rebuilding her life and rewiring her brain again for success and fulfillment. She has created multiple six-figure companies and a beautiful life since. As a business and mindset coach focused on foundations, strategies, and systems, she uses those experiences and her training now as the foundation of my work with entrepreneurs
- I'm this unusual combination of having one foot firmly grounded in the business world, working with business development and strategy for over 25 years.
- The other in the spiritual realms – that I often speak about through the lens of quantum physics and neuroscience.
- I run my business through intuition and checking in with my higher self consistently throughout the day. And I've always been highly intuitive (having studied reiki, shamanic healing and plant spirit healing).
- Parents career path (18 years of lawyer in music biz) – their view of success

Welcome back to the show. I'm here with the lane Schwartz and we're going to be talking about how the masculine paradigm of success sucks for real success. So welcome, Elena.
Alaina Schwartz 0:13
Thank you. It's so great to be here with you. I'm honored Michaela.
Michaela Light 0:17
Yay, me too. And for those of you who don't know, her, she used to be in a previous life, a Attorney for the music industry. But she stopped using so much of that left brain attorney stuff and got into her right brain skills and intuition.
And she has a very interesting life history that we'll share later. But right now, she's a business, a mindset coach, and she works on improving your foundation strategies and systems. So let's talk about the masculine dominated way of being in business because so many women and men use that but but perhaps they're not sure exactly what we're talking about. So what do you mean by the the masculine way of doing business or masculine dominated energy,
Alaina Schwartz 1:15
Everyone has feminine and masculine energy, Yin and Yang, you know, inhale and exhale, the sun and the moon. And everything is, is sort of feminine energy, and masculine energy. And so each person, whether you're a man, or a woman, however you self identify, um, you have masculine and feminine energy. And what's interesting about that is that, you know, in the patriarchal society, masculine energy has very much dominated, and it's dominated how people do business. And so what that looks like, for me also, when you look at the the masculine and feminine, it's like hustle and flow. So hustle is Do do do push, push, push, action oriented, single minded focus, always moving forward. And what tends to happen for both men and women for particularly for women, is it tends to lead to burnout, exhaustion, overwhelm health issues, relationship issues, you know, so maybe you are crushing it in your business, but you're like, the rest of your life has completely imploded. Or maybe you're even struggling to get where you want in your business, you're struggling to scale your business or grow your business, two different things, but you're scaling tea, or you're struggling to either grow your business or scale your business to the next level, because you're in constant state of doing and you can't possibly work any more to, you know, to grow your business anymore. And so, so, flow is actually it is moving into that state of intuition, it is moving into those more feminine qualities of wisdom and feelings. And you know, like, if we're too far in the feminine, it's like being like total hippie and not really wanting to accomplish everything. But if you're too far in the masculine again, you are in that burnout, overwhelming exhaustion. So there's a huge balance. And it's learning how to balance those two energies so that the masculine can actually support the message masculine is the structure. And so we do need structure in business, but the feminine energy is the flow. And if we moved more into flow, then we wouldn't we create what we wanted with ease. So it makes sense.
Michaela Light 3:32
It does make sense i muted myself, so I wasn't making noises. I was having some late breakfast. So I think that makes sense. But maybe maybe it would help to understand what's the you know, you're talking about how masculine dominated energy stops the flow? What exactly tell us a bit more about what you mean by flow? Because I don't think you just mean be a hippie.
