Hey Soultribe. Aunty Charmaine here — and this week we are closing out September with a conversation that hits close to home for so many of us.
Someone in our community wrote in and shared that they were raised on daily fast food. It was all they knew. But in these times they can no longer afford it — and honestly they do not even want it anymore. The problem is they were never taught how to grocery shop. Food goes bad. Money runs out. And the loop keeps repeating.
This one is not just about food. This is about sovereignty. This is about what it means to finally decide that you are worth the effort of nourishing yourself well — practically, financially, and communally. Aunty is breaking it all the way down.
And as always — every letter on Dear Aunty is completely anonymous. Your name is protected. Your story is safe. Submit your letter at soultribe.media and let Aunty know what is on your heart.
New episodes every Friday. Welcome home, sweetheart.

Hey Soultribe. It's Aunty Charmaine — and this week's letter stopped me in my tracks.
A 23 year old in our community looked up one day and realized the patterns running through their family — the running, the ignoring, the leeching — were the very things they were at risk of repeating. They want to do better. But how do you confidently take action in your life when no one ever showed you how?
This episode is for every first generation everything in this community. The ones who had to figure it out alone. The ones who are still figuring it out. Aunty is going to talk about unlearning, about trusting the journey, and about two books that fundamentally changed the way I understand how this life works.
And as always — every letter submitted to Dear Aunty is completely anonymous. Your name never comes through. Only your truth does. And your truth is always safe here.
New episodes every Friday on all platforms. See you there, sweetheart.

Hey Soultribe. Aunty Charmaine here — and this week we are talking about one of the most real tensions in the journey to financial freedom.
Someone in our community wrote in and asked a question that I know so many of you are sitting with right now. How do you hold the affirmation of being debt free when the debt is still physically right there in front of you? They are creating payment plans. They want to be free. But the weight of it all makes them want to run.
Aunty is not going to tell you to pretend the debt is not real. What I am going to tell you is the truth about what affirmations actually require — and why your daily actions are either building your freedom or blocking it.
And as always — every letter on Dear Aunty remains completely anonymous. Your name is safe. Your story is protected. All that matters is the truth you bring and the wisdom we build together.
New episodes every Friday. Aunty is here.

EPISODE 1 — You Gave Too Much, Set Yourself Free
Hey Soultribe. It's your Aunty Charmaine — and this first episode of Dear Aunty is one I have been waiting to sit with you for.
Someone in our community wrote in and shared something so many of us have lived. For years they financially poured into everyone around them — out of love, out of longing, out of the deep desire to belong. And when they were empty, no one showed up. Now they are sitting in debt, full of regret, and feeling stupid for all they gave.
Aunty has something to say about that.
Here is what I need you to know before you press play — your letter will always remain anonymous on this show. Your name is safe. Your story is yours. What comes through is the truth of what you are carrying, and Aunty meets you right there every single Friday.
This is not just a financial conversation. This is a healing one. And it starts right here.

Hey Soultribe. It's your Aunty Charmaine — and before we dive into the letters, before we sit with the hard questions and the honest answers, I want to tell you how we got here.
Dear Aunty was born at a kitchen table. It started with my niece — a conversation, a moment of real talk, the kind that only happens when you are sitting with someone you trust completely. She looked at me and told me that I needed to share this gift with the world. That the wisdom, the honesty, the love I pour into the people closest to me — it belongs to everyone. She called me her favorite Aunty. And in that moment, Dear Aunty was born.
Now I get to be Aunty to all of you.
In this introduction episode I am sitting down with the Soultribe to share exactly what this show is, how it works, and why I believe it is unlike anything else out there. Dear Aunty is a podcast and an advice column in one. You write in. You share what is on your heart — the financial stress, the generational patterns, the habits no one taught you, the life you are trying to build. And every letter that comes through is read and answered with complete anonymity. Your name is never revealed. Your story stays yours. Only the truth comes through — and Aunty meets it with wisdom, honesty, and love every single time.
This is your sanctuary, sweetheart. This is the table where everybody has a seat and nobody gets left out.
New episodes drop every Friday. And Aunty is just getting started.
Welcome to Dear Aunty. I am so glad you are here.

Dear Aunty | A Podcast + Advice Column by Soultribe Media
Hey Soultribe. It's your Aunty Charmaine — and I am so glad you found your way here.
Dear Aunty is…
Here is how it works. You write in. You share what is weighing on you — the financial stress, the generational patterns, the relationships that cost you more than they gave, the habits you never learned, the life you are trying to build without a blueprint. And here is what I need you to know — your letter will always remain anonymous. Your name stays safe. Your story stays yours. All that comes through is the truth of what you are carrying, and Aunty meets you right there.
Every episode I open a letter from someone in our community and I speak directly to it — honestly, spiritually, and practically. No scripts. No filters. Just truth delivered with love.
I am Aunty Charmaine — spiritual life coach, psychic medium, shamanic healer, ancestral healing guide, and HuffPost contributor. I have spent my career sitting with people in the hardest moments of their lives and helping them find their way back to themselves. That is exactly what Dear Aunty is built to do.
Every episode lives inside a larger monthly theme rooted in the real cost of living — not just financially, but spiritually, ancestrally, and communally. Because the truth is, healing does not happen in just one area of your life. It happens across all of them, all at once.
New episodes drop every Friday on Buzzsprout, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and soultribe.media.
Ready to submit your letter to Dear Aunty? Head to soultribe.media and let Aunty know what is on your heart. Your story is safe here. Your identity stays protected. Always.
And if this podcast has ever made you feel seen, supported, or less alone — subscribe, share it with someone who needs it, and come join us deeper inside the Soultribe on Patreon. We are building something real over there.
Welcome home, sweetheart. Aunty has been waiting for you.
