Embody Her with Xandrine Ayla

On this podcast, I love sharing some of my closest friends, peers, and sisters, and Luna is one of them. She is a mama of two who shares her healing journey from a cancer diagnosis that led her to find her true self through inner work. 

We have an insightful conversation on what it's like to learn how to listen to your body, still take care of yourself, and nurture your inner creative fire especially as moms or caregivers who can give so much of that you forget about giving to yourself.

She shares what that can look like, along with wisdom about working with the seasons and how creation starts in silence and darkness.

If you’re running on empty and miss feeling lit up and alive, this one’s for you. Your creative fire is still there, waiting for you to come back to it.

We talk about:

Luna's healing journey from cancer diagnosis at age 20

The importance of meditation and inner listening in healing

The impact of hiding and lying on physical health

Motherhood as a nurturing and transformative experience

Practices for moms to reconnect with themselves amidst chaos

The significance of cycles and darkness in creation and healing

Mom guilt and how to transform it into self-compassion

Micro practices for daily self-care and presence

The role of community and support in motherhood and healing

Holistic approaches to health and emotional well-being

Luna's Bio: 

Luna is a mother of two, an intimacy and embodiment coach, and the creator of WILD Coaching—a journey that supports mothers in returning to their instinct, power, pleasure, and inner wisdom.

Her own path of healing began at the age of 22, when a diagnosis of cervical cancer became a profound invitation to turn inward. It led her to examine how she was living, how she was relating, and what her body was communicating about the imbalances in her life. Since then, the body has remained one of her greatest teachers and guides.

As a deeply devoted mother, Luna spent many years giving almost everything to her children and family. She and her husband lived and traveled in different parts of the world, often raising their children without the consistent support of extended family or a close community. Over time, she began to recognize the impact of carrying so much alone—not only on her own well-being, but also on her relationship, creativity, and ability to build financial stability.

Through her personal journey, Luna has come to understand that motherhood is not meant to be a life of endless self-sacrifice. Her work now invites mothers to turn inward from the beginning, listen to their bodies, care for themselves, and create a more sustainable balance between giving and receiving. She believes that when a mother remains connected to herself, her needs, and her life force, her care for her family can come from fullness rather than depletion.

In this solo comeback episode, I’m sharing the identity shift, unexpected lessons, and deep inner work that reshaped the way I live, create, and show up in the world. From navigating major life transitions to discovering the power of pleasure, embodiment, and surrender, I explore why sometimes we need to stop pushing, reconnect with ourselves, and give a new version of us the space to emerge.

If you're in a season of change, feeling disconnected from yourself, or sensing that there's more you're here to create, this episode is your invitation to slow down, tune in, and begin your next chapter from within.

In this episode, I explore:

Why you can't force clarity. What I learned from trying to figure out my next chapter before I was ready, and why the uncomfortable in-between can be a necessary part of becoming.

The wisdom of seasons. Why our energy naturally shifts, how we can work with those rhythms instead of constantly pushing, and what happens when we give ourselves permission to slow down.

Why your environment matters. How intentionally creating a home that reflects who you're becoming can support your clarity, creativity, and sense of alignment.

Pleasure as a portal to transformation. How reclaiming pleasure and reconnecting with your sexual energy can help you access more aliveness, creativity, and possibility.

The four stages of my embodiment methodology. Regulate, Release, Reclaim, Rebirth: the process that emerged from my own experience and now informs the way I guide women through their own transformations.

The power of an identity shift. How to stop operating on default and consciously choose who you want to become in this next season of your life.

The four stages of my embodiment work

Regulate. Come back to your body, find your center, and create a greater sense of grounding.

Release. Make space for the emotions and patterns you've been carrying instead of continuing to push through them.

Reclaim. Reconnect with your pleasure, self-trust, inner knowing, and the parts of yourself you've neglected or left behind.

Rebirth. Channel that renewed energy into the woman you're becoming and the life, work, and creations you're ready to bring into the world.

Your invitation

What if you stopped asking yourself, "How do I make this happen?" and started asking, "Who am I becoming, and what does she need from me?"

You don't need to have your entire next chapter figured out. You can start by listening to your body, honoring the season you're in, and allowing yourself to evolve.

And if you're ready to explore this work more deeply, I'm creating Ignite, a six-week embodiment journey guiding you through the four stages of Regulate, Release, Reclaim, and Rebirth.

After a challenging but transformative year for me I share my top 5 things that I’m consciously leaving behind as this year ends. Five patterns, identities, and ways of being that no longer fit, and what becomes possible when we allow them to fall away. I know you'll find resonance with some of this.

And with this I also share some reflections that mark the closing of an era for me, and the opening of something new.

I'm excited to continue this connection so inviting you...

Inspired by what was real and true for me recently, I wanted to share what's allowed me to find more ease even through a big transition of moving back to Southern California.

Something like this could have easily taken me into burnout but instead it was different and I share 5 things that have made the shift into this new way of being, led by the body.

This conversation is a reminder that sustainable success begins with how deeply we’re connected to ourselves.

You’ll hear how to shift your pace, regulate your nervous system, work more with your feminine energy, create boundaries and clear energetic baggage to name a few so that you can move from just trying to survive, into you thriving.

In this first episode of Season 3 on the Embody Her Podcast, I’m sharing one of my fav topics - what it really means to embody your highest self. 

I talk about things that I've not heard of in most personal development spaces - because it's based on my personal experience, especially recently with a big move/transition that I've been on that I talk about. 

Who do you become when you’re no longer tied to who you’ve been?

We often think 'becoming her' as doing more or achieving more... but actually, it’s about shedding and letting go so that you can become more of who you already are under what you thought you had to be.  

I share the shifts that changed everything for me this past year, and how letting go of old identities, habits, and relationships created space for real embodiment. This is an invitation to declutter your inner and outer world, align your body, mind, and spirit - so that you can consciously choose to design your next chapter in the way that lights you up!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Tangible ways that you can get clear and intimate with who your highest self is 
• The shedding and letting go which a death process in order for you to be reborn into the versions of you that feels way more aligned 
• Why embodiment is key in this process, a whole energetic shift that goes deeper than just mindset
• How this isn't faking it until you make it, but rather becoming someone who is already inside of you 
• What to do when you get challenged in the process 

and more!

A real-life season of transition of moving, shifting, and navigating the unknown inspired me to record this episode for you.

If you’ve been pushing through overwhelm, riding the waves of uncertainty, or feeling like your body is on edge while your mind won’t slow down, this is your reminder: you don’t have to keep white‑knuckling your way through.

In this episode of Embody Her, I break down the subtle signs of nervous system dysregulation that so many high‑performing women overlook, and I share practical, science‑backed and soul‑led tools to bring yourself back into balance. We explore simple embodiment practices, grounding techniques, and mindset shifts that help you soften into uncertainty and lead from a calmer, clearer state.

I also share details about The Radiance Reset, my new 1:1 program designed to guide you back into your body, soothe your nervous system, and help you glow from the inside out.

This isn’t just self‑care. It’s a reclamation.

In this solo episode, I get real with you about what it looks like to go beyond surface level self love. 

More like soul aligned self love - embodiment of your truth and aligning with that ‘F yeah’ kind-of-life.

This is for you if you’ve feel like you’ve been plowing through life lately, haven’t quite aligning what you’ve been wanting for a long  time now, and feel like it’s time to make some changes.

Some of what I talk about:

 How to reconnect with your body so that you work with it like it’s your compass

The perspective on setting boudaries that might actually make you want to set them in a way that you haven’t before.

The concept of your higher self, and how getting to know and embody your higher self is actually what will align you with that one (or two) things you’ve been REALLY wanting to manifest

Let this episode be inspiration to come back home to yourself and live in alignment with what matters most - because you get to love yourself that much. ;)

**Disclaimer - not my usual audio quality with my laptop getting repaired (birds chirping here and there), but the message still needed to be shared, enjoy!

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in the loop of people-pleasing, constantly trying to be who the world expects you to be, this one will hit home.

Rita shares so openly about her own journey how years of carrying emotional weight (and literal weight) kept her playing small...and what it took to finally choose herself.

We go deep on:
 🌀 How releasing emotional weight leads to physical transformation
 🌀 What it really means to honor your body as your vessel
🌀 Why going all in on your desires isn’t selfish—it’s NECESSARY
🌀 Redefining your reality by releasing what no longer serves you
🌀 The courage required to break free from societal expectations + start living life on your terms

If you’re craving permission to unapologetically BE YOU... if you know you’re meant for more, but fear and old programming are still running the show this conversation will light a fire under you.

I believe that when a woman chooses herself, the world shifts.

And it starts with taking that very first step.

Following your intuition and learning how to know the difference between that and fear is something I always get asked so I decided to bring in a special guest, Rebecca Davison -  a spiritual teacher,  and truth-seeker walking the path of embodiment and spiritual remembrance, to have a chat about this and so much more... 

We went there… into the realms of ego, intuition, grief, and the  art of emotional self-leadership.

We talked about:
 ✨ How to tell the difference between fear and intuition (and why your intuition doesn’t waffle)
 ✨ What it really means to reclaim your sovereignty and stop living for external validation
 ✨ The ego’s sneaky habits—and how to catch it before it runs your reality
 ✨ How relationships with departed loved ones get to evolve
 ✨ Why trusting Spirit will stretch you… and liberate you
 ✨ The power of forgiveness as a radical act of self-liberation
 ✨ Why curiosity is the doorway to deeper connection with Source

If you're navigating a transition, shedding old patterns, or longing to feel more connected to your body, your spirit, and your truth - let this be your permission slip to come home to yourself.

We also share personal stories, tools we use, and reminders that you’re not broken...you’re remembering.

Let this transmission land and inspire you to play big as you co create with God.
