The Femme Cast

Welcome to The Femme Cast—the podcast for women who are truly ready to break free from toxic relationship cycles, choose themselves, and become a magnet for the love they deserve. I’m Maria — Master Energy Healer, Radical Self-Love Leader, and Relationship Mentor. I work with the women who are cycle breakers, grid shakers, and truth layers — the brave souls who came here to dismantle the inherited beliefs that told them they had to chase love, prove their worth, and beg to be chosen. I help them break free from the karmic cycles and generational patterns that keep them stuck in toxic relationships and self-abandonment — so they can unapologetically choose themselves, reclaim their inherent worth, and become magnetic to soul-aligned love, expansive opportunities, and the liberated life they were born to lead. Without ever shrinking, settling, or self-abandoning again. I’ve been where you are, stuck in cycles of chasing love, begging to be chosen, and abandoning myself again and again in the name of love. But I turned my pain into purpose, and now I’m here to help you do the same. Each week, I share personal stories, actionable insights, and a blend of spiritual and practical tools to help you heal from past wounds, reclaim your self-worth, and rewrite your love story. You’ll hear everything from vulnerable truths about my own journey to breaking toxic patterns to empowering lessons that will guide you toward creating the healthy, loving relationships you crave. Join me as we say goodbye to self-abandonment, people-pleasing, and unhealthy dynamics, and hello to radical self-love, emotional freedom, and true empowerment. It’s time to reclaim the version of you who never had to beg to be chosen. You ready? Let’s do this.

Have you ever dimmed your light so someone else could feel more comfortable?

Maybe you’ve caught yourself downplaying a promotion… hiding a new relationship… or making yourself smaller just to fit into someone else’s version of you. If so, you’re not alone—and this episode will feel like someone finally put words to what you’ve been carrying for years.

This week on The Femme Cast, I’m pulling back the curtain on a...

What if the exhausting chase for love—the overthinking, overgiving, people-pleasing, and shrinking yourself just to be chosen—was never your fault… but the result of a belief system that was handed down to you without your consent?

In this raw and soul-stirring episode of The Femme Cast, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the deepest wounds so many women carry: the belief that love must be earned.

What if the version of you who was betrayed wasn’t broken — but being rebuilt?

In Day 4 of The Betrayal Series, we're confronting the haunting question so many women ask after betrayal…

“Who am I without him?”

And deeper still…

“Can I ever get back to the confident, radiant woman I used to be when I met him?”

But what if the goal isn’t to go back?

What if she — the woman you were before the heartbreak — attracted that very relations...

You survived the betrayal… but now what?

If you’re still cooking the same meals, following the same routines, and trying to squeeze yourself into the exact life you had before it all fell apart — this episode is your wake-up call.

When my relationship ended in betrayal, I clung to the familiar. I stayed in the same job. Bought the same groceries. Maintained the same habits — even when they felt hollow. I think subconsciously part of ...

They told you to “let it go.”
To stay soft. Stay positive. Stay silent.
But what if your rage isn’t a problem to fix — what if it’s a portal?

In this raw, unfiltered episode of The Femme Cast, we’ll crack open the misunderstood experience of rage after betrayal — not as a weakness, but as a sacred, intelligent force calling you back to yourself.

Betrayal trauma doesn’t just break your heart — it breaks your trust in your own ...

The signs were there.

The late-night disappearances.
The mystery phone calls.
The way the energy shifted the moment I entered the room.

My gut was screaming that something wasn’t right… but I silenced it.
I believed his words over my body’s wisdom.
And when the truth finally came out?

I was shattered. 
And furious with myself for not seeing it sooner.

In this opening episode of The Sacred Reclamation Series: The Bet...

Why do we keep chasing people who don’t choose us — even when we know better?

In this powerful, soul-baring episode of The Femme Cast, I break down the emotional addiction behind chasing emotionally unavailable partners — and why breaking free from this cycle feels so hard. Drawing from my own experience during a 7-year relationship hiatus, I share how I treated chasing like an addiction… and how this one shift changed everything.

What do anonymous prank calls, elaborate route detours, and fifth-grade crushes have to do with your love life today?

Turns out… everything.

In this raw, soul-baring episode of The Femme Cast, I take you on a time-traveling trip back to junior high, when love first felt like a game I had to win. These seemingly innocent childhood crushes didn’t just capture my heart; they unknowingly initiated me into a decades-long obsession with em...

What if I told you that the pattern you call “bad luck in love” is actually a trauma response in disguise?

In this soul-baring episode of The Femme Cast, I take you into the raw, unfiltered moment that shattered my illusions about love — the night I found myself on the floor, begging someone to love me. Not because he was worth it. But because, deep down, I still believed I wasn’t.

What followed was a soul-awakening — a brutal and be...

We all have that one moment we’ve buried deep.
The one that creeps back in at 2 a.m., leaving a pit in your stomach.
The moment you swore you’d never tell a soul.

This is mine.

In this raw, unfiltered episode of The Femme Cast, I take you back to the moment I found myself on the floor, crying and begging a man to love me—a man I knew, deep down, was cheating and gaslighting me while swearing he loved me. It was humiliating. C...

We’ve been told to just think positive.

To manifest through our mindset.
To smile through the ache.

But what if the very emotions you've been taught to suppress... are actually your greatest source of power?

We stay too long.
We hold on too tight.

And sometimes, we love the potential more than the person in front of us.

In this soul-baring episode of The Femme Cast, I open up about the terrifying — and ultimately liberating — moment I realized I was clinging to a relationship that no longer aligned with my truth. 

Not because I didn’t know better… but because I was afraid. 

Afraid he might change — but for someone else.

It hit me like a lightning bolt:
"That’s it. I’m done. I have nothing left to give."

That moment marked the end of chasing, shape-shifting, and settling. What I thought would be a short break from dating spiraled into a seven-year relationship hiatus—not out of bitterness, but out of something far more sacred: a call to come home to myself.

In this deeply vulnerable episode of The Femme Cast, I share the truth behind my...

What if the most selfless act you could take… is the one that disappoints everyone else?

If you’ve been conditioned to believe that love is earned through over-giving, self-sacrifice, and constantly pleasing others—this episode of The Femme Cast  might shake something deep within you. I know, because for most of my life, I was the woman who believed that being “good” meant abandoning myself. I gave until I was empty. I performed for...

What if the very behaviors we were praised for—being “nice,” giving endlessly, and putting everyone else first—are the same ones keeping us disconnected from our power, our purpose, and the love we truly deserve?

Have you been feeling an overwhelming resistance to the very life you’ve worked so hard to build?

You're not alone—and it’s not just burnout.

In this raw, soul-stirring episode of The Femme Cast, I’m pulling back the curtain on a collective uprising happening in women’s bodies, minds, and spirits—a full-body no more to the self-sacrificing systems we’ve been conditioned to uphold for generations.

If you’ve been feeling deeply exhausted, disoriented, and like you don’t recognize yourself lately — you’re not alone. I’ve been feeling it too. In this episode of The Femme Cast, I’m sharing a raw, unscripted, channeled message about what I believe is really going on beneath the surface.
