Her offerings weave the energies of the Melissae, the Pythia, the Magdalene, and other priestesses who served the Great Mother.

This second conversation between Katie Rose and Stella Porta offers a deeper look at what it really means to build a business - we both felt there was more to say and decided to record a second session. 

Rather than presenting a polished or palatable version of success, Stella names it directly: “I’m not trying to be palatable”. This becomes a thread through the entire dialogue; a refusal to dilute the work and a commitment to truth over performance.

There is a deep exploration here of how business unfolds in cycles. Not as a straight line of growth, but as something that waxes and wanes, much like the moon. Sales rise and fall, energy expands and contracts and within that, the real practice is not constant output, but the capacity to keep going.

A few key moments you may wish to listen for:

• Stella speaking to the importance of integrity in business, and the courage it takes to stand by your work without reshaping it for approval.

• A shared recognition that your business will move in seasons, and that steadiness comes not from control, but from patience and persistence.

• The role of dreams as a source of guidance, with Stella describing how she works with the liminal space between sleep and waking to shape her offerings.

• A grounded and nuanced conversation around AI, and how it can be used in a way that supports, rather than replaces, human insight and creativity. AI for good

• The reminder that your business is not separate from you, but an extension of your ideas, your values, and your way of seeing the world (and also it's not all of who you are!).

There is also an honesty in the practical realities such as the time it takes to create meaningful containers. The boundaries required when working largely alone. The ongoing navigation of visibility, community, and sustainability.

What emerges most clearly is this: your work does not need to follow the dominant rhythm of the online space. It can be slower and more deliberate. It can be built on something deeper than trends or urgency.

And perhaps most importantly, that the original passion for your work matters. The teachings, the ideas, the devotion that brought you here in the first place. You may find yourself reflecting on your own pace, your own decision-making, and the ways in which you listen, or don’t listen, to your inner guidance.
