Dear Rising Soul Podcast
Dear Rising Soul is a podcast about healing, self-awareness, and returning to yourself. Hosted by Naomi Carr, this show explores the deeper patterns that shape our lives — including fear, conditioning, responsibility, relationships, inner peace, and self-trust. Through honest storytelling and reflective conversations, Naomi shares insights from her own healing journey and the work she teaches through the Return to Self Academy. While understanding conditioning is an important part of healing, this podcast also explores the deeper, soul-led aspects of growth — including intuition, energy, and reconnecting with the inner wisdom that guides transformation. These conversations are an invitation to slow down, reflect, and remember who you are beneath the roles and patterns you were taught to carry. Remember. Rise. Heal.

You’ve begun to accept who you are. But what happens when living that truth means changing the life, and the relationships, you’ve always known?
In this episode, we explore the courage to be yourself, speak honestly about what matters, and move toward a life that feels more like your own. Through my experience writing Uprooting Shame and Guilt, I share the personal stakes of telling my truth, and why bein...
How do you learn to accept yourself when you’ve spent years trying to change, fix, or outrun who you are? In this episode, I explore self-acceptance, self-love, healing, and what it means to stop rejecting the person you were, the person you are, and the person you’re still growing into.
This is a conversation about making peace with your past, questioning the standards you’ve been measuring yoursel...
How do you know when intuition is guiding you, and how can you tell the difference between inner knowing and fear? In this episode, I explore the quiet ways divine guidance can show up in everyday life, through the body, relationships, creativity, dreams, and those persistent nudges we so often talk ourselves out of.
I also share some of the ways guidance has shown up in my own life, and why learning to trust that in...
What happens when you spend years seeing your own body as something to fix, hide, control, or apologize for?
In this conversation, I explore where body shame begins, how those early messages can shape the way we see ourselves for years, and what it means to rebuild a relationship with the body that has carried us through everything.
I share pieces of my own story with weight, comparison, shame, and learning to see my ...
Why does the world feel so full of fear, and what happens when we are exposed to it all day long?
In this conversation, I reflect on my own relationship with fear, including what I experienced during the early days of COVID, and how I learned to step back from the noise without disconnecting from reality.
We explore the difference between real fear and fear that keeps us anxious, reactive, and constantly bracing for w...
Why are we all so tired? In this Sunday Heart to Heart, I sit with the kind of bone-deep exhaustion that no amount of sleep seems to fix, and the story so many of us were handed: that our worth is measured by how much we produce.
This one is a gentle look at hustle culture, burnout, and what it really costs us to keep pushing. If you have forgotten that you are allowed to rest without earning it first, come sit with ...
Why does manifestation sometimes feel like it is not working, even when you are using affirmations, positive thinking, and visualization?
In this conversation, I explore the deeper inner work behind manifestation and why subconscious beliefs can quietly shape the choices, patterns, and relationships that create our everyday reality.
I share how this work has unfolded in my own life and why creating lasting change requ...
Why do highly sensitive people feel everything so deeply, and why are they so often made to feel like they are too much?
I grew up hearing that I was too sensitive, too emotional, and that I took things too deeply. In this conversation, I explore how those messages can shape the way we see ourselves and why sensitivity is so often mistaken for weakness.
We look at what emotional sensitivity really is, why deep feelers...
Grief can leave us carrying regret, unanswered questions, and the weight of everything we wish we had said.
In this Heart to Heart, I reflect on the “what ifs” that can follow the loss of someone we love, the future we thought we still had with them, and the compassion we may need to offer ourselves when hindsight becomes painful.
A quiet Sunday reflection on grief, regret, lost possibilities, and making s...
Why is it so hard to receive love, help, money, kindness, or support?
In this deeply personal conversation, I explore how fierce independence can begin as protection and slowly turn into isolation. I share the moment I realized that my struggle to receive was not strength. It was armor built from the belief that needing others was unsafe.
Together, we look at self-reliance, fear of indebtedness, emotional walls, and t...
Why do we chase love, success, belonging, or recognition—and still feel as though we are never quite enough?
In this deeply personal conversation, I share how the need to feel chosen shaped my marriage and what I discovered when I finally stopped looking to another person’s presence to confirm my worth.
Together, we explore how childhood emotional wounds can follow us into our adult relationships, why achi...
What happens when healing changes you so deeply that the places and relationships that once felt familiar no longer feel like home?
In this episode of Dear Rising Soul, we explore the loneliness that can come with healing, personal growth, setting boundaries, and outgrowing old relationship dynamics. I share my own experience of becoming the “lone wolf,” the difference between loneliness and solitude, and...
Have you ever stopped to wonder where that voice actually came from?
In this episode, I'm getting personal about the inner critic, where it's really born, how it takes root, and why it sounds so much like you that you never thought to question it.
Because the voice that has been narrating your life may not be yours at all.

Sometimes the people who loved you in your wound can't quite recognize you in your healing. And the distance that follows isn't a betrayal. It's growth.
In this episode, we explore what it really means to outgrow the people you love. Not cutting people off, not labeling anyone toxic, but understanding why healing changes our relationships, and how to tell the difference between distance that comes from a healed place...
What if anxiety isn't something happening to you, but something trying to tell you something?
In this episode, Naomi gets deeply personal about her own journey with anxiety. From a childhood spent scanning for danger, to a week-long panic attack in her early twenties, to a decade of medication that treated the symptom but never the wound.
This episode explores what anxiety actually is, why it lives in the body, why th...
Healing without an apology starts with understanding why the apology was never going to be enough. In this episode we go deep into why we keep waiting, what we are really looking for, and what it actually takes to find peace without the closure we were never given.
Whether you are waiting for an apology that never came, or holding one that arrived but changed nothing — this conversation is for you.

Healing the father wound starts with understanding how it shaped you. In this episode we explore what the father wound really is, how it lives in the body, and what reclamation actually looks like.
My own story. The fear and the longing. The voice I carried into adulthood without knowing it. And what healing looked like on the other side.
If you're working through childhood wounds, conditional love, or patterns you ca...
What if the pain you’ve carried for years has a name?
In this deeply personal episode, I explore the mother wound and the lasting impact of growing up without the emotional safety, tenderness, validation, or connection every child deserves.
Together, we explore how this wound follows us into adulthood through relationships, self-worth, people-pleasing, anxiety, abandonment wounds, and the nervous...
Before the podcast, before the words, before any of this, there was a little girl lying in bed at night with an invisible mic in her hand, speaking to souls she hoped would feel less alone.
In this deeply personal episode, Naomi Carr shares the story behind Dear Rising Soul, the loneliness that shaped her childhood, and the quiet calling that followed her long before she understood what it meant.
This is a conversatio...
We tell ourselves we’re afraid of failing, but that’s not the whole truth.
In this episode, we explore the deeper fear that keeps us from showing up. The fear of being truly seen. The fear of being human in front of others, of being judged, misunderstood, or found not enough.
You’ll be invited to look at what it’s really costing you to stay hidden, and what begins to shift when you give yoursel...
