Burnout isn’t proof of failure ~ it’s your soul’s signal that something has gone out of balance. In this episode of the Magical Soulutions Podcast, we explore the shadow side of devotion: when service mutates into self-abandonment and leaves us quietly cracking.

We’ll talk about the difference between quiet quitting and quiet cracking, how Virgo’s mythic guide Astraea mirrors our struggle with burnout, and why stepping back isn’t failure but a sacred act of preservation.

I’ll share my own raw story of quiet cracking and a client’s journey through spiritual depletion (used with permission and name changed for privacy), along with practical, mystical soulwork practices you can use to realign your energy. From micro-moments of replenishment to journaling prompts and sacred inquiry, this episode is your invitation to remember that devotion should flow from fullness, not depletion.

Themes in this episode:

• The Virgo New Moon and its invitation to balance service with self-care
• The difference between quiet quitting and quiet cracking
• Astraea’s myth as a guide for devotion without collapse
• Real stories of burnout and rebirth
• Soul Coaching tools for restoring wholeness

✨ You are magical.

✨ You are the soulution.

Have you ever felt like a fraud ... as if one day, someone’s going to “find you out”? You’re not alone. In this episode of the Magical Soulutions Podcast, we’re pulling back the mask we wear to seem “normal” and exploring the cost of hiding our authentic selves.

Together, we’ll dive into:

• Why we mask and the old survival strategies that once kept us safe but now keep us small.
• The cycle of imposter syndrome and shame, and how they create spiritual disconnection.
• A soulful reframe: your so-called flaws are actually hidden treasures.
• How authenticity becomes both a spiritual path and a quiet revolution.

💫 Soulwork Practice - Journal Prompts: 

• Where in my life do I still wear a mask?
• What am I protecting when I put it on?
• What would it feel like, in my body, in my spirit, to set that mask down, even for a single moment?

💫 Soul Invitation: This week, choose one small way to show up unmasked whether with a friend, in your journal, or in your creativity. Remember: authenticity is your soul’s natural language.

Because masking may have kept you safe once, but your soul was never meant to live weighed down. It was meant to shine.

✨ Continue the conversation: The blog, The Unmasked Soul: Reclaiming the Magic You’ve Been Hiding, drops Thursday at MagicalSoulutions.com.

What if self-care wasn’t just bubble baths and candles, but a radical act of reclaiming your time, energy, and truth?

In this episode of the Magical Soulutions Podcast, we explore what it means to be a Self-Care Revolutionist — someone who redefines soul care on their own terms.

We’ll break through the polished social media version of self-care and step into the deeper, messier, and far more courageous work of living in alignment. Through stories, practical metaphysics, and pop culture moments, we’ll uncover how saying “no” to what drains you is saying “yes” to the life you actually want.

This week, choose one small, intentional act that shifts your rhythm and reclaims your energy:

• Say “no” to one thing you would have said “yes” to out of obligation
• Create an hour of unscheduled time and fiercely protect it.
• Delay a reply, cancel a meeting, or close the laptop early without apology.
• Let yourself rest without feeling you must earn it first.
• Commit to a non-negotiable moment of quiet each day when you are unavailable to anyone but yourself.
• Or create one of your own, you are a Self-care Revolutionist after all.

Reflect on one or more of these to deepen your Self-Care Revolution:

1. What trail am I ready to walk to meet myself again?
2. What empty space do I need to carve out to hear my own voice?
3. What false prestige am I willing to release to get my self-respect back?
4. What truth am I ready to live out loud, without fear?

Episode 7: Heal the Ouch: Full Moon Forgiveness + Soul Soothing

Cosmic Timing: Lion's Gate Portal + Aquarius Full Moon in Leo Season + Mercury Direct

What if the very thing you're holding onto is also the key to your freedom?

This week’s soul-soaked episode delves into the sacred tech of forgiveness, not as a passive “let it go,” but as a powerful, intentional system reboot. We explore forgiveness as a metaphysical act of soul sovereignty, guided by the full moon’s illuminating wisdom and the Lion’s Gate portal’s fierce energy of awakening.

We reclaim forgiveness as a rebellious act of healing. Not for them...for you.

In this episode:

• The truth about forgiveness and why it’s not forgetting
• How spiritual detachment, grace, and alchemy intersect
• Why your internal hard drive needs a cosmic defrag
• A powerful full moon ritual + timeless forgiveness prayer

Check out our blog on Thursday for the Full Moon Release Ritual.

Episode 6: Invisible Doesn’t Mean Imaginary – Living with Invisible Disabilities

What if being unseen doesn’t mean being unworthy? What if the stories you carry in silence are the ones that hold the most magic?

In this episode, we explore the world of invisible disabilities — the chronic conditions, neurodivergence, trauma, and mental health experiences that aren’t always seen, but are deeply felt.

Rev. MK Mitchell invites you into a sacred, soul-validating conversation about the "double labor" of managing symptoms and others’ perceptions, the emotional toll of being disbelieved, and the powerful shift from shame to soul celebration.

Together, we reclaim the truth:

• Invisible doesn’t mean imaginary.
• You are not broken — you are wired with magic.
• Your experience matters.

Journal Prompts:

1. What parts of myself have I hidden because others couldn’t see or understand them?
2. What would it feel like to honor them as sacred instead of shameful?

Soul Invitation:

This week, practice compassion without needing confirmation. Extend grace to others and yourself even when you don’t know the full story. Everyone is navigating something.

Listen now and remember:

You are magical. You are the soulution.

What if Mercury Retrograde wasn't here to throw you off course… but to point you back to the path your soul is ready to walk?

In this episode of the Magical Soulutions Podcast, we’re reframing the retrograde narrative. Instead of fear and frustration, what if this cosmic rewind is offering you a sacred invitation to revisit, reflect, and realign?

We’ll explore:

• What Mercury Retrograde actually is — minus the fear-mongering
• Common areas affected and how to respond with intention
• Magical Soulutions: rituals, tools, and reflections to support clarity and connection
• Personal stories from MK’s own Mercury mishaps (including that time her computer crashed...)
• How to embrace the spiritual gifts of Mercury Retrograde with grace and curiosity

Try this 3-card Tarot or Oracle Spread to support your retrograde reflection.

Lay out three cards as you ask these questions. The act of shuffling, drawing, and interpreting engages your intuition and helps bypass the logical mind — which can sometimes overthink during retrograde.

• Card 1: What’s calling to be reviewed? (This card might highlight a past situation, a belief, or a relationship that needs your attention.)
• Card 2: What clarity wants to emerge? (This card will offer insight into the wisdom available to you now.)
• Card 3: What can I release or reframe? (This card guides you on what energy or perspective to shift to move forward.)

Check out the blog for more on this spread and additional Mercury Retrograde insights — releasing this Thursday!

The Beauty of Being a MOMO: Why Your Misfit Magic Matters

Have you ever felt like you just don’t fit in? Like the world wasn’t designed with your soul in mind?

In this episode, we’re celebrating the beauty of being a MOMO ~ Misfit, Oddball, Maverick, Outcast ~ and reframing these identities as sacred magic, not mistakes.

I’ll share a deeply personal story about the pain of feeling different and how those darkest moments became the birthplace of my greatest gifts. Together, we’ll explore why your quirks and unconventional traits aren’t flaws… they’re soul strengths.

You’ll also hear how tarot archetypes like The Fool, The Hermit, The Hanged Man, and The Chariot reveal the deep wisdom of the MOMO spirit.

Plus, I’ll guide you through powerful soulwork to reclaim your misfit magic, along with journal prompts to help you honor what makes you beautifully unique.

This episode is for you if:

• You’ve ever felt too weird, too sensitive, too “much”
• You’ve hidden your gifts or made yourself small to blend in
• You’re ready to embrace your difference as destiny

Because the truth is...

You are not here to fit in. You are here to light up the world ~ just as you are.

Included in this episode:

• Tarot Reflections: The Fool, The Hanged Man, The Chariot & The Hermit

What if the most profound spiritual connection isn’t found within four walls — but right within your everyday life?

Through personal stories, soulful reflections, and tender truths, you'll be guided to uncover the wisdom woven through nature, art, creativity, and the quiet magic of your own heart.

This isn't about rejecting spiritual traditions — it’s about reclaiming your freedom to experience the Divine in your own way.

• What an “UnSermon” really is (and why it matters)
• Why spiritual wisdom doesn’t belong only to the few
• My personal story of finding spiritual connection in unexpected places

Soul Invitation:

Where do you feel awe and connection outside of traditional spiritual spaces? What small act of sacred rebellion is calling you this week?
