Holistically Awakened

TODAY'S EPISODE:

• The signs you might need somatic healing — and how your body may be calling for your attention.
• The hidden cost of suppression: How unprocessed emotions get stored in the body, the impact of resisting them, and why feeling them can feel overwhelming at first.
• From disconnection to awareness: Moving from identifying as your emotions ("I am an anxious person") to observing them as passing experiences.
• Challenging the belief that “something is wrong with me” — understanding conditions like anxiety, ADHD, PCOS,  depression… and what your body is really trying to tell you.
• The role of the healthy masculine in women’s healing — and how safe structures support emotional release and growth.
• Emotional blocks to healing: The most common repressed emotions in women and how people-pleasing and self-suppression hold you back from true authenticity and expression.
• Why are autoimmune and chronic conditions more common in women? Unpacking the deeper emotional and physiological links.
• What does healing actually look like? A practical look at co-regulation, self-soothing, nervous system regulation, parts work, and addressing repressed emotions in your healing journey.
• A quick guided practice for you to practice somatic embodiment 

Jason’s professional career began in the corporate world before his own struggles led him on a path of healing and self-

discovery. Through this work, he realized that true healing requires integrating the mental, emotional, and somatic

aspects of the self. This discovery led Jason to train with leaders in the healing arts and develop his own unique

approach called SOULmatic healing. He believes that healing is an innate ability within all of us, but it isn’t meant to be done alone. With a gentle, intuitive, and attuned approach, he guides his clients in bringing awareness to unconscious beliefs, creating space to process emotions, and gently uncovering and releasing layers of trauma so they can feel whole, clear, and fully expressed in who they are, moving through life with more confidence, ease, and alignment.

In this episode, I share how buying a concert ticket 6 months in advance taught me a powerful lesson: sometimes, the best decision isn’t the most "logical" or "safe" or "responsible" one. Overthinking, waiting for the “perfect time,” and playing it safe can make life feel dull. But what if we stopped postponing the things that make us feel alive? Tune in to hear why saying "yes" to what excites you—regardless of practicality—is the key to living fully.

Ever found yourself thinking, “I swear I already worked through this…” only for the same wound, trigger, or limiting belief to resurface?

Yeah, same. And here’s why:

• Healing isn’t linear - it happens in layers. What feels like regression is actually deeper integration.
• Intellectual awareness isn’t enough—if it’s still living in your body, it’s still running the show.
• Your survival mechanisms aren’t sabotaging you; they’re protecting you until you’re ready to feel and see it.
• The real question: Are you reacting from old wounds, or responding from new wisdom?

This episode is for you if you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like you’re “failing” at healing. You’re not. You’re evolving. And the proof? You can never go back to who you were before. 

Tune in for a deep, no-BS conversation on what healing really looks like—and why you’re exactly where you’re meant to be

EPISODE 153 - The Investment That Will Change Your Life

This is for the high achieving woman who invests in all of the books, seminars, courses, etc

Are you constantly investing in yourself to achieve more—more results, more money, more success, —only to find yourself still feeling unfulfilled? In this episode, I dive deep into a shift that changed everything for me: learning to invest in my joy and well-being, rather than just chasing results.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• Why the “achieve first, feel good later” approach keeps you stuck
• The power of investing in yourself for your energy, joy, and alignment—not just external outcomes
• How feeling fulfilled before success actually makes your goals easier to reach
• The magnetic energy shift that happens when you pour into yourself
• How everything in your life is attracted through YOU
• And more

Do you feel exhausted, stuck, or like your body just isn’t cooperating no matter what you do?

You might be insurvival mode—and you’re not alone. Many women are unknowingly running on cortisol and stress, keeping them in a constant state of fight-or-flight.

In this episode, we dive into:

What survival mode actually is and why it’s more common than you think
 Physical signs your body is stuck in survival mode, like:

• Struggling to eat in the morning
• Chronic bloating and stubborn weight gain
• Hormonal symptoms like PMS, PCOS, irregular cycles
• Hair loss, thinning or acne
• Cravings for sugar, caffeine or salty foods that you just can’t shake
• Sleep issues, brain fog, and feeling exhausted no matter how much you rest

But also:

• Avoidance patterns in relationships, finances, or emotions
• Overthinking, decision fatigue, self sabotage, and perfectionism
• Feeling stuck in repetitive patterns, despite wanting change
• Struggling with boundaries, numbing with food or your phone, and feeling disconnected from your body

Why willpower alone isn’t enough to break free from these patterns
How your nervous system and subconscious beliefs can keep you trapped in survival mode and repeating patterns - but they are also the answer to get you unstuck
The deeper work needed to shift from just surviving to truly thriving

Your body isn’t failing you—it’s trying to keep you safe. But youdon’t have to stay stuck here.

Ready to go deeper? The Whole Woman Experience is my high-touch 1:1 program designed toheal from the inside out, combining emotional regulation, subconscious rewiring, and feminine health

This program goes beyond symptom management—it gets to the root of your health and mindset struggles— so you can make vitality your new normal, establish unshakeable confidence,  and create lasting change in the areas of your life were you have previously felt stuck

In this episode, I am bringing you behind the scenes and opening up about some themes I’ve been working through—like turning envy into gratitude, breaking out of victim mode, and using my human design to get unstuck and follow my authentic path, learning to find joy right now instead of always chasing it in the future, and becoming aware of where I was making my life that much harder for myself..
