Today's episode is the wake up call we all need from time to time to remind us of the power we hold. Our time and attention is everything and it's up to us to set systems and boundaries in place to funnel our focus into things that serve us.

Come with me as we have an explorative conversation all about the mind blowing history of Christianity, the formation of the church, the cross section of spirituality and religion, and an update on my beliefs. This is an episode backed by research and a curious mind fascinated by faith! We dive into my background with religion, the early formation of Christianity, the suppressing of female wisdom in the church, different branches of early sectors, and where my faith stands. The findings I share in this episode were so interesting to me and wildly affirming of what I believe in that I wanted to open the dialogue!! Thank you for listening with an open mind!!!

If your life feels stale and you're craving newness, excitement, more passion - then it's time to lean into your soul's nudges! That random hit you have to take a new class, work at a coffee shop, try out a different gym, etc listen to those!! Even if they seem like passing thoughts with no real significance, think again. They carry more impact than you think and especially in ways you may not expect!!

"The truth will set you free, but it will probably piss you off first"!!
It's so easy to feel defensive when receiving hard feedback but those moments are actually portals for growing into your best self. Illuminating your blind spots, where you are subconsciously holding yourself back, when you are acting out of alignment, etc - these are not attacks, they are awareness of your blocks so you can become better!! When you fully recognize this you can see constructive criticism in a new light, as a form of freedom, and a blessings for uncovering the way forward.

WOW this is such a deeply personal and vulnerable story but honestly, this podcast isn't about me. It's about bringing powerful, impactful messages to those who need to hear it - with the intention to help even if that means feeling uncomfortable in the delivery at times. I want to disclaim, this episode is NOT going to be for everyone! We are diving into complex topics of inner child healing, reparenting, deep meditation, energy work, and somatic therapy. I recently had such a powerful meditation that was so healing and transformative and I wanted to share the story and technique with you. If you have a deep seeded trauma or limiting belief that seems to continue to run your life no matter how hard you try to talk or think your way through it, this may just be the solution you were looking for. These traumatic emotions and events live within our body and if we don't ever truly clear them, they will continue to resurface just like a weed if you never take the root out of the ground. Today I walk you through my meditative experience as well as give you a step by step guide to go on this journey yourself. This practice is applicable to so many situations but for me, I was focusing on my fear around life long commitment and marriage.

We live in a world of constant comparison which can lead to self abandonment in wishing you were someone else or looked like your favorite IG inspo. We think that since we don't have so and so's life or we don't look like her, that's why we're unhappy with ourselves and our lives. But what if I told you you have it backwards? And that actually if you spent all that energy that you're wasting on romanticizing everyone else on investing in yourself, you and your life would be a whole lot different. You are one of one and in order to maximize that, you need to own it! Own your differences, your authenticity, what makes you YOU! You will never be anyone else so you may as well start loving yourself and see how far that can take you.

If you constantly feel so lost in the hustle, the grind, the hunt for results, this episode is for you. Micromanaging and endless checking for progress leads to an unenjoyable work flow, discouraging atmosphere, energy leaks away from taking productive action steps, and broadcasts that you simply are NOT where you want to be - perpetuating that state. Today, I speak about why being so immersed and embodied in the process is the absolutely cheat code and ironically gets you to arrive with ease.
