In this solo episode, I’m sharing from the heart about how my so-called failures have actually been redirections — guiding me toward new possibilities, new passions, and deeper alignment with my purpose.

When things don’t go as planned, it’s not the end — it’s the Universe saying, “There’s something even better waiting for you.”

We’ll explore:
✨ The power of intention and how to realign when you feel lost
✨ Why detours are often divine guidance in disguise
✨ The courage it takes to say YES when opportunity knocks
✨ And the illusion that we’re ever truly alone — when in fact, there are so many people waiting to hear your voice and feel your light

This is your reminder to reconnect, redirect, and most importantly, enjoy the ride.

1. Look at your accomplishments – Celebrate how far you’ve come; evidence of your resilience is everywhere.

2. See a detour as an opportunity to explore – Every redirection is a chance to learn, expand, and discover hidden gifts.

3. The power of intention – Get clear on what you truly want. The Universe can’t deliver what you haven’t claimed.

If you’re ready to step into your power, love your body, and awaken your confidence from the inside out — join me for my course “Unleash The Inner Goddess.”
A playful, transformative experience to reconnect with your feminine fire, feel sexy, and radiate unstoppable confidence.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with the powerhouse duo Dauzat St. Marie—singer/songwriters Heather St. Marie and Mat Dauzat —whose lockstep harmonies and magnetic songwriting have taken them from touring with legends like Rick Springfield, Pat Benatar, REO Speedwagon, and Chicago to performing on global stages.

From Heather’s inspiring journey as a breast cancer survivor to their viral hit “Common Ground” landing on Now That’s What I Call Music, Grammy ballot recognition, and millions of views worldwide, their story is one of resilience, artistry, and unstoppable drive.

Most recently, Mat and Heather joined Seal on his 30th Anniversary World Tour and continue building their own momentum with international tours and arena shows.

This episode dives into their journey, their music, and what it takes to keep rising in today’s ever-changing music world.

In this episode, I sit down with my longtime guitarist and friend, Jim Robbins, to share the raw, real story of chasing music, losing it, and finding it again. Jim left his career in NYC to follow the music dream, and together we dove headfirst into years of adventures in Los Angeles—working with some of our idols, playing unforgettable shows, and living that wild, creative ride.

But the industry highs came with lows, and eventually the burnout hit so hard that Jim couldn’t even pick up his guitar. He hated music. He walked away.

Fast-forward a decade, and something magical happened—we got back on stage together for the first time in 10 years. That spark reignited. Jim grabbed new gear, found his joy again, and remembered why we started making music in the first place.

We talk about that journey, the lessons learned, how we’ve grown, and where we’re heading next—including new music and more shows with Otto’s Daughter.

This conversation is for anyone who’s ever lost their passion, questioned their path, or needed a reminder that it’s never too late to fall in love with your art all over again.

To contact Jim, feel free to leave a comment so he can see it.

What if manifesting wasn’t about wanting harder… but feeling deeper?

In this episode of Her Gypsy Rebel, I’m pulling back the curtain on the real secret to manifestation—and it's not about vision boards or scripting every detail. It’s about embodying the feeling of already having what you desire, not coming from a place of lack or desperation.

I share powerful, personal stories including:
✨ How I manifested a life-changing meeting with a rockstar
✨ My daring escape from East Germany
✨ And how I found a band that took me on tour—even when it seemed impossible

This isn’t fluff. It’s real, raw, and proven.

Whether you're craving more freedom, wild adventures, aligned relationships, or creative success—this episode will show you how to shift your energy and trust the universe in a whole new way.

1. What are the things that bring me joy?

2. What did I want to be as a kid and WHY?

3. What would my life look like if I had everything I want? What would I wear? How would I talk? Who would my friends be? Where would I hang out and what would I do?

In this intimate birthday episode, I share the raw, beautiful truth about returning to my hometown—the very place I once couldn’t wait to escape. What I’ve found is a deeper appreciation, unexpected healing, and a powerful sense of peace with my past.

Through years of inner work, I’ve uncovered how my pain shaped my patterns—expecting others to meet my emotional needs, only to feel let down. I speak candidly about the wound of being told I'm “too much,” and the radical shift that happened when I realized... maybe I’m not too much—I’m just not abandoning myself anymore.

This episode is an invitation for you to go deeper too. To stop waiting for others to give you the love, presence, or recognition you crave—and start giving it to yourself.
