Let’s explore the connection between cognitive dissonance and the nervous system, and why change can feel so uncomfortable…even when you deeply want it.

Building on episode 176 and conversations around gratitude, emotional states, and the “messy middle,” this episode breaks down what happens when your internal world begins to shift… but your patterns, behaviours, and identity haven’t fully caught up yet.

Cognitive dissonance is oft...

I’m sharing Workshop 2 of my 3-part series: How to Build Trust in Yourself by Reconnecting with Your Felt Sense.

In Workshop 1, we focused on reconnecting to the body, without force.

In this session, we move beyond reconnection and begin to understand why you do what you do.. exploring the internal systems that drive your patterns, behaviors, and decisions.

Many of us are highly self-aware, yet still find ourselves repeating the sa...

In this episode, we explore the deeper connection between gratitude & the nervous system, and why traditional mindset approaches don’t always create lasting change.

While gratitude is often positioned as a powerful tool for shifting your reality, many people find themselves feeling stuck..unable to access or sustain those positive states. This episode unpacks why that happens through the lens of Root-Cause Therapy and emotional...

Not everything that supports your mental health looks like therapy..and in this episode, we’re coming back to the basics.

In a world that constantly encourages more - more productivity, more optimization, more doing - it’s easy to overlook the simple practices that quietly support our mental, emotional, and spiritual health in the most sustainable ways.

This episode explores the power of returning to foundational habits that regula...

If you’ve been navigating eczema and feel like you’ve tried everything without lasting relief, this episode offers a completely different perspective.

In this conversation, I sit down with Abbie Bradford, Holistic Nurse, Clinical Herbalist, and founder of Eliminating Eczema, to explore what it truly means to approach skin conditions through root cause eczema healing.

We talk about how the skin acts as a window into the body’s inter...

The Spring Equinox marks a powerful moment of balance.. when day and night meet in equal harmony, inviting us to pause, reset, and reconnect as we step into a new season.

In this episode, I’m sharing a Spring Equinox meditation that is an opportunity to slow down, release what’s been sitting beneath the surface, and reconnect with your own inner alignment..what I refer to as your inner syzygy.

Syzygy is the natural dance of opposit...

After hosting the first workshop in my new self-trust series, I received a lot of messages asking if the event had been recorded or if a virtual option would be available. Because the in-person event included personal conversations and reflections, I chose not to record the live experience out of respect for everyone in the room. But after hearing from so many people who wanted access to the material, I decided to record the worksh...

For many people, the expectation of ‘healing’ is that it arrives through big breakthroughs or dramatic “aha” moments. But often, the deepest transformation happens in much quieter ways.

So let’s pull the curtains back and allow a former client who completed a five-session Root Cause Therapy package with me to share her experience. Rachel shares her honest experience of the process, what led her to seek deeper healing, and the subtl...

It feels really special to share this week’s episode with you. I pulled a Self-Forgiveness Meditation directly from my Soul Awakening Meditation Library and made it a free podcast episode because sometimes we don’t need more information…We need space. We all carry experiences, judgments, and stories that weigh on us. And often, the hardest person to forgive is ourselves. This guided meditation is a gentle invitation to soften into ...

Let’s talk self-trust beyond the cliche. So often we think self-trust is about affirmations, discipline, or “just believing in ourselves.” I used to think that too. I thought pushing through, showing up no matter what, and being the “consistency queen” meant I trusted myself. But I’ve learned that real self-trust isn’t about force..it lives in the body, in the nervous system, where and when we feel safe, steady, and regulated.

I sh...

Some conversations simply matter more than words can capture. This is one of them. In this episode, we’re talking about healing through vulnerability.. what it actually looks like to own your story while building something meaningful in the world.

Brooke Paulson, co-founder of Rooted Collective 201 in Blanchardville, joins me for a conversation that feels like one of the many deep talks we have on the weekly.. just recorded.

Rooted...

This is by far the most vulnerable episode I have ever shared.

For a long time, alcohol showed up as a protector in my life. There were years where I didn’t yet know how to sit with my emotions, and alcohol helped me soften the edges, quiet the noise, and disconnect when everything felt like too much. It offered relief, acute calm, and even a sense of confidence when my nervous system felt overwhelmed.

And for a long time, that pro...

Forgiveness is often misunderstood. It’s not about forgetting, excusing, or bypassing what happened.. it’s about releasing the energetic grip the past has on your body, nervous system, and soul.

And after this month-long pause from the show, we are back and I share some personal reflections, divine synchronicities, and a powerful message that came through repeatedly at the end of 2025 and into the new year: forgiveness is the gatew...

In this closing episode before my January podcast pause, I’m reflecting on winter rest and aligned momentum.. and why January has never felt like the beginning of a new year for me.

As we close the Year of the Snake and begin to sense the energy of the Horse ahead, I share why honoring the seasons, listening to the nervous system, and allowing space for integration has become essential to how I live, work, and guide. This episode i...

In this deeply personal episode, I share the emotional and intuitive story behind creating the My Energy of Alignment Journal - a 3-month rituals journal and planner designed to support embodiment, nervous system healing, and daily presence.

I open up about the postpartum season that inspired Edition One, how my work evolved into a subconscious, somatic, and energetics approach, and why I felt called to recreate the journal to matc...

In this episode, we sit down with Michael McAdams, a spiritual seeker, whose life path has been shaped by a deep, unwavering devotion to truth, purpose, and spiritual understanding.

Michael shares his experiences with psychic readings and the innate ability we all possess to connect with the spiritual realm. We discuss the differences between spirit guides, spirit teachers, and angels, shedding light on how these celestial beings s...

There was this one theme running through the last few listener submission episodes, this one topic that kept nudging me.. beneath every question, every story, every emotional unraveling… and it was the nervous system. The nervous system as a felt reality.

The way emotions come on fast.

The way we flood our systems and may not realize what or how.

The moment our body switches from presence to survival.

This episode came from the rea...

What an amazing month we’ve had with our listener submission episodes! As we wrap with this final episode of the month, today, we tackle a powerful listener question that resonates deeply: “How have you dealt with people and their resistance to mental health work in your job, especially in the rural community?” This inquiry opens up a rich discussion on the nature of resistance, its roots in our nervous systems, and how it can mani...

In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the most requested topics in the emotional healing world.. parts.

A listener asked a powerful question: “What’s the difference between shadow work, protector parts, orphaned parts, repressed parts, suppressed parts… and how do I know if I have them?”

This episode brings clarity to those concepts through an Energetic, Root Cause Therapy, Somatic, and Trauma Informed lens. And you bet you...
