Maggie’s back after a winter hiatus (read: gray skies, low energy, mild existential recalibration) and stepping into spring with a different perspective.

This episode is a mix of energy work, career pivots, and the ongoing experiment of being a person with a nervous system in 2026.

She shares why she’s rethinking coaching, what it looks like to stop trying to “fix” everything, and why energy work is making a comeback—but this time, without the pressure to be life-changing.

Also: coffee. Still very much in the picture.

In this episode:

Why doing the thing > thinking about the thing

Letting go of the need for everything to be “the solution”

Energy work, but make it practical (and slightly less woo)

The nervous system: sensitive, intelligent, and occasionally dramatic

How stress becomes your personality (and how to gently undo that)

Learning to trust your body… selectively, depending on caffeine intake

What’s happening now:

Maggie is reopening a small number of one-on-one energy sessions focused on:

Personalized energy clearing + chakra work

Reiki-inspired sessions

Nervous system resets

Available virtually, possibly in person.

Closing thought:

There’s no big breakthrough waiting for you.Just a series of smaller, slightly more honest steps.

In this episode, I’m sitting with a birthday that felt quieter than expected, a world that feels heavy, and a realization that hit me during morning meditation:I spend a lot of time asking for what I want—and not enough time asking what I’m offering.

This is a rambling reflection on kindness, presence, and the uncomfortable truth that most of us (myself included) are way more self-absorbed than we realize. I talk about manifesting fatigue, road rage in Boston, sadness for people I care about, and the small, ordinary ways we can show up better—without becoming saints or pretending we’re not annoyed half the time.

In this episode:

Turning 38 and feeling… meh

Why manifesting can feel exhausting

The difference between wanting and offering

Kindness without performative spirituality

Being a good neighbor in ordinary ways

Why “be the change” is corny but still true

Happy New Year. No resolutions here. Just presence, cold runs, and showing up anyway.

In this short episode, Maggie emerges from a Heated Rivalry slumber to talk about choosing curiosity over pressure, meditating more, and letting the new year be softer than expected.

She also shares what’s ahead: a January Book Club with The Power of Now and a brand-new early-morning yoga offering in the Boston area.

Less “new year, new you.”More connection, presence, and coffee.

I recorded this in my car instead of going into work.

Part of the reason I love sharing about The Revivalists so much is because…I genuinely love them.

But also because it’s really easy for me to be sarcastic and cynical about most things. Expressing joy can feel more terrifying than expressing pain.

I’m learning that my biggest hangup with vulnerability lives there—having the courage to love things openly.

On their website, the lead singer says: “This band is one of the biggest representations of love in my life. It’s love personified.” As a fan, I experience them as love personified. Their concerts feel like standing inside a container of joy. And when you let music move you like that, it will shift you.

So…more live music?

And maybe a groupie yoga tour whenever they announce their next one. (I’m only half kidding.)

Tunes mentioned:• Otherside of Paradise• It Was a Sin• Soulfight

Hello and Happy Sunday!

In this solo ep, I get into the space between wanting more and staying where it’s comfortable. Why success feels unsafe. Why being stuck kind of works for me. And how sometimes we’re not changing because part of us doesn’t really want to.

I talk about what I’m learning about desire, discomfort, and shadow work from Existential Kink.

It’s going to be my first book club pick in the New Year. If you feel like exploring your dark side and getting honest about the things you secretly enjoy, reply below and join me.

Much love,

Maggie

Hi friends,

Welcome back to Here to Share. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the quiet shift that’s happened in how I show up online, why I’ve stopped asking “what’s helpful?” and started asking “what feels fun?”, and how that’s changed everything.

I talk about:

Why I’m done trying to be helpful

What it took to actually share movement videos

Learning to express myself without a perfect outcome

How I’m rethinking creativity, connection, and being seen

This is for anyone resisting their own expression, waiting to feel "ready," or wondering if it's too late to start. (Spoiler: it’s not.)

Let me know what lands for you. I really do want to hear.

Much love,Maggie

Just your average morning: coffee run turns into existential reflection. In this episode, I’m in the car talking about shame, self-forgiveness, and how I’m trying to stop turning every uncomfortable emotion into a project.

I get into The Power of Now, the feminine energy body, and how maybe the work right now is just being with what’s here—even if it’s ick. Also, should we start a book club? Lmk.

In this episode of Here to Share, I talk about what it’s been like to explore so many self-help and spiritual paths—life coaching, plant medicine, meditation, energy work—and still feel like I haven’t found “the thing.”

I unpack:

The pressure to have “favorites”

The two extremes of manifestation advice and how neither really fits

Masculine and feminine energy and the discomfort of binaries

Sobriety and the freedom of not labeling it

Why we don’t need everything to be a big identity or breakthrough

I also share some ideas for possible future episodes and want to hear what you're actually curious about. Thinking of doing some 101-style episodes or live sessions on topics I’ve explored over the years, like:

Manifestation

Meditation

Human Design

Astrology

Reiki and energy healing

Tarot

Shadow work

Kriya Yoga

What's life coaching?

Travel and More!

If any of that feels interesting, or if you’re also in a space of pause or transition, I’d love to know what’s on your mind.

Thanks for listening. XO

Maggie
