Ready for a shift? While September brought intense, logistical energy, October 2025 ushers in a new flavor. We're moving from literal lessons to a rhythmic, transformative dance. This month is about finding lightness, levity, and joy even amidst deep change.

You'll feel a powerful pull to be playful and adaptable as you navigate a paradoxical blend of intense energy and profound grace. The numerology of a 1 month in a 9 year speaks to a cycle of endings and new beginnings, requiring both forward momentum and a willingness to shed what no longer serves you. This is a powerful time for death and rebirth, and it's essential to give yourself space to grieve the past as you step into your new identity.

This episode explores how to:

• Embrace the paradoxical energy of the month—finding balance and harmony in a period of intense transformation.
• Work with the 1/9 numerology to navigate new beginnings with discernment while honoring the need to release old patterns.
• Tune into the body to release emotional and physiological blockages, especially around sadness and heaviness.
• Harness key astrological transits to your advantage, including:
• The powerful Aries Full Moon on October 6th, which may reveal jarring truths and push you to embrace your inner truth.
• Pluto moving direct on October 13th and Venus entering Libra, inviting you to reflect on your journey and infuse your life with beauty and harmony.
• The Libra New Moon on October 21st, a harmonic reset for setting intentions around peace, cooperation, and beauty.
• The shift from Sun in Libra to Sun in Scorpio on October 22nd, a move from external beauty to the depths of your soul.
• Learn to surrender, ask for help, and trust that you have exactly what you need for this journey.

Join us to learn how to be teachable, shed outdated belief systems, and set the stage for a delightful October. Don't let gravity steal your light—choose joy for the sake of joy.

Amy and Kat continue to unpack Dr. John Gottman’s famous ‘Four Horsemen of the apocalypse’ for relationships which has helped him be able to predict the failure or success of a relationship with a 90% accuracy rate. Week 2 is Defensiveness. It is that quick “it’s not me, it’s you” response that shows up when we think we are being criticized. Amy and Kat talk about how defensiveness sneaks in when we are stressed or protecting our ego (especially for Amy!!), and why it makes conflict worse instead of solving it. They share real-life examples, explain how even a hint of criticism can trigger us, and walk through the antidote of taking responsibility for your part. You will hear tips for pausing, owning your piece, and keeping conversations from turning into blame games. This episode will help you stay connected and turn tense moments into opportunities for understanding.

When Carley found herself constantly thinking about food—either obsessing over dieting or feeling like a failure for not being able to stick with anything—she knew something had to change. She was sick of the all-or-nothing mindset, the endless rules, and the guilt that always followed. But as the youngest woman to ever go through the Stressless Eating program, she also knew she didn’t want to carry this struggle into the rest of her life.

In this episode, Carley opens up about what it felt like to be trapped in a cycle of food obsession, why she finally decided to get help, and how she rewired her brain to break free. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice out there or wondered if you’d ever find peace with food, Carley’s journey will show you that real, lasting change is possible—at any age.

Do you ever get the feeling like you’re telling the same story over and over again? The details may change (new boss, new partner, new hometown) but the cycle of the story stays the same. In today’s episode I talk about what to do when you seem to be stuck in the same frustrating story on repeat. I’ll share my own experience with finding myself in this rut and talk about how to move when you’re ready to finally make an edit.

In this episode, Amanda explores what it means to be a Rainbow Warrior and how this archetypal energy can help us navigate a time of massive transition. As we move through the eclipse season, our systems are breaking down, but new light and abilities are also coming through. We're reminded that our human experience is sacred, and we have a duty to ourselves and to the planet.

Discover how to connect with your own inner power, anchor in new light, and become a harbinger of renewal. We dive into the profound symbolism of the Rainbow Warrior across different cultures, from Aboriginal lore to the concept of Kundalini energy and Earth’s ley lines. Learn how this mythic archetype can help you bridge linear and multidimensional time, and why it’s connected to the sacredness of water.

We’ll Discuss:

• The Power of Intention: How to intentionally express care, and also recognize your own capacity to give and receive it.
• Talisman Energy: What a talisman is and how everyday objects or moments can carry magic and serve as reminders of your higher resonance.
• Transmutation with Tiger's Eye: Why this powerful stone is a great tool for detoxing heavy energy and moving forward with courage and boldness.
• The Rainbow Warrior Archetype: Understanding the ancient, cross-cultural symbol of the Rainbow Warrior or Serpent, and how it's connected to uplifting consciousness, creation, and destruction cycles.
• Collective Responsibility: Why the changes you're going through are not just about you, but about anchoring new light into the collective consciousness.
• Reflection Questions: Consider what's coming into alignment for you, who has reflected your own light back to you, and how you can pay it forward today.

Tune in to learn how to embody the Rainbow Warrior and send the frequency of love, clarity, and courage out into the world.

Amber sent us an email about something we’ve all felt. That little spiral when a friend takes forever to text you back and you start wondering if you did something wrong. Amy & Kat talk about how our brains love to make up stories, and how we won't know what's really going on unless we ask them. Amy immediately relates to this listener and shares her experience. They also make up some fun, new acronyms that might come in handy when you're starting to spiral. Speaking of acronyms, is it not cool to text 'lol' anymore? Apparently, it's "ick" along with no-show socks. Ugh.

This is the start of a 4 part series of Amy and Kat unpacking Dr. John Gottman’s famous ‘Four Horsemen of the apocalypse’ for relationships which has helped him be able to predict the failure or success of a relationship with a 90% accuracy rate. Part 1 is Criticism, the one that often shows up first and sets the tone for conflict. Amy has her own issues with getting defensive and even gets her boyfriend on the phone to confirm. Kat explains why criticism is different from a simple complaint, how it sneaks in through exaggeration, “should” statements, jokes, and tone, and why it can actually be a clumsy bid for connection. You’ll learn Gottman’s antidote, the Gentle Start-Up, with clear “I feel / I need” examples to help you express concerns without blame. Whether you’re married, dating, or navigating family and friendships, this episode will help you spot criticism early and swap it for communication that keeps relationships strong.

Feeling of the Day: Angry (and Kat has every right to be!)

Have you ever felt derailed by failure in your life? 

Perhaps it was the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, a public embarrassment, or a mistake that cost you more than you felt ready to lose. 

Or maybe you don’t experience failure much. It’s possible you tiptoe around failure, making sure that you’re never too far out on a limb so as not to fall. 

In that case, you might feel blocked or stuck, too insulated to experience failure but too protected to receive real freedom or joy. 

In today’s episode I talk about failure: why we avoid it, how we survive it, and how to make meaning of failure in our lives. I normalize it, de-stigmatize it, and invite you to do something that might feel counterintuitive to you; to move toward failure, rather than away. 

What might failure be trying to show you in your life right now?

Are you feeling a call to let go and surrender? September is a powerful 9 universal month in a 9 universal year, a time of sacred closure and profound transformation. Join us as we explore the energy of the number 9 and its connection to karmic cycles, tapping into infinite wisdom, and refining your personal frequency.

In this episode, Amanda shares a deeply personal journey of sacred closure in a place that holds significant karma. She discusses how certain geographical locations, jobs, or even relationships can act as rites of passage, holding space for your soul's true frequency.

Discover how to embrace the natural ebb and flow of life, moving gracefully forward instead of clinging to the past. We explore how moments of sorrow and pain can be laden with hope and faith, and why this "capstone month" in numerology offers a chance for piercing clarity.

Learn to trust your path, release what no longer serves you, and become honest about what you're still carrying. This is a powerful time to get in sync with your oversoul and step into your destiny with an open heart.
