Down to Energy

Welcome to our first ever “Let’s See” guest episode! We welcome Kylie to the pod, a vibrant, intuitive creator, for an open conversation on energy, intuition, and authenticity and how to navigate these ideas in our literal experiences. We cover so much, here’s a sneak peak:

• Dancing between intuition & head/logic – exploring inner knowing & intuition as a dial to turn up, what to do when the head clouds the way, and practices that create balance us both.
• Self-Love – Kylie is my muse for self love! She offers a unique take on how this practice unlocks authentic expression and self validation (to which I can’t help but offer the energetic significance & context for too!)
• Positivity “Pushing” - as bubbly, positive people in our nature, Kylie & I swap experiences & perspectives for staying connected to being a “light” in the world while not bypassing the uncomfortable, but authentic realities of life too.
• Tarot – WTF it is, Kylie’s unique mindset and process for being a translator of intuitive downloads for her clients, asking the cards questions (or not), recommendations for self practice, energetic hygeine/boundaries and more.
• So much more!

Welcome to a WTF episode where we use energetics as a roadmap INTO big lofty ideas like living in Alignment, we cover:

• WTF is Alignment - actually? – while you’ll have your own definition of what it means & feels like to you, there are energetic qualities that point us towards your values, your beliefs, and your actions that make up living in alignment.
• Internal vs External Alignment – the energetics of grounding in who you are for internal alignment while boldly living your truth and cultivating external alignment.
• Values & Beliefs as Anchors – I offer a values exercise to help you assess what matters most right freaking now! - how well it’s reflected in daily life. This is a particularly relevant time to consider this corner of life given Venus’ retrograde in early 2025.
• The Adventure of it – the energetic invitations (and practical applications) of seeking, experimenting, and refining what feels true today, with a blend of adventure, curiosity, and your intuition guiding the way.

“Healthy” in air quotes because it’s super subjective & up to you what healthy MEANS - this episode gives you a behind the energetic scene look at making that decision for yourself & sustaining that relationship with alcohol (can be applied to other substance relationships or what that which we enforce as a “healthy habit” in our lives).

**This is not for addicts or people who struggle with substance abuse. If you're navigating drinking or not drinking socially in the modern world, balancing conflicting values, and sober curiosity, this may offer additional insight & support for those experiences!**

If you’re down, let’s get into:

• Choosing the relationship that works for you and making it LAST – what’s energetically present as we make choices about what is “healthy” for you personally, both as a grounding anchor point and out in the world in practice.
• Energetics the support & challenge the experience – how grounding into your values (earth energy) is supportive and escapism (water energy) is a natural challenge to overcome, especially at the start of the year with Pisces season interfering your NYE resolutions.
• When to choose boundaries vs flexibility – the role of boundaries, personal values & beliefs, and self-awareness in creating a sustainable relationship with alcohol.
• Personal Insights & Cultural Shifts – my personal journey & dance with this substance (a work in progress!) and how societal trends reflect shifting attitudes toward sober curiosity.
• Coming Home to Yourself – as the ultimate medicine - especially in the context of collective lessons offered by current energetics.

Welcome to a perfectly imperfect WTF episode that explores the energetics of perfectionism. You’ll be able to use the energetic context to create a more easeful experience of perfectionistic & critical tendencies by understanding the energetic motivation BEHIND & WITHIN it. We cover:

• WTF is Perfectionism - actually? – discussion of perfectionistic tendencies through the lens of Virgo (its desire for improvement, service & systemization to help us understand what this part of us is actually desiring when harsh, critical thoughts come our way)
• The medicine – an exploration of energetic qualities present in perfectionism & the energetic medicine that soothes these experiences, including ways to apply these insights to the moment that the perfectionist pops up in actual life.
• Personal shares of the moment – recorded the day after a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, I share my own experience with this energetic to bring more life & context to the dance we all do with the parts of us that just want to grow & improve!
• Allowing for Imperfection – Practical ways to balance structure, intuition, and bold action to move through these experiences with more ease and awareness.

Tune in for a meaningful conversation that peels back the energetic layers present when we gaze in the mirror and acknowledge what we see in our reflections. We cover:

• The Energetics of Body Image – exploring how we see ourselves in the mirror through the lens of earth energy (physical body, presence, and perhaps somewhere between criticism & gratitude) and water energy (reflection, compassion, and feelings associated with the experience).
• Breaking Free of Judgement – what the energetics teach us about how to move away from criticism to neutrality - and maybe even all the way towards self-appreciation. A few reframes & tools as avenues to having a more compassionate experience with our reflections.
• Confidence – we also explore how fire & confidence (Leo energy) is tied into the experience which offers us more practices like mirror work & self massage rituals to cultivate self-love & embodied confidence.
