  • 9. Finding Harmony: Part 2 - with Anna Liljenwall

    Something magical happens when two (or more) women gather together in their power and speak their truth. In part 2 of Finding Harmony, Anna Liljenwall, host of Human Be(com)ing podcast, and I sit down and let our souls speak with respect and levity about some difficult and uncomfortable topics. We explore The Sisterhood Wound, embracing the shadow self, emotional and spiritual bypassing in the current spiritual community, the fear and shame about expressing our beliefs about spirituality, what it's like to follow spirit in pursuit of our passions, and so much more!! Never have I felt so seen, heard, understood and powerful than in this conversation.

    If you loved part 1, wait until you hear part 2!!

  • 7. Modern Day Christmas Carol
    Almost everyone I talk to lately is going through some major transformations, myself included. It can't be a coincidence that we are all experiencing such intense collective shifts, so in this episode I explore what I believe is the reason for the this crazy season of our lives! I talk about the ghosts of christmas past (closure and clarity), the ghost of christmas present (mindset), and the ghosts of christmas future (connection and community). If you find yourself in the midst of paradigm shifting changes, identity crises, and/or full blown reality altering transformations that are rocking your world, I invite you to listen in, join the conversation, and above all, remember you are never alone and we are all in this together!

  • 3. Trusting Yourself

    I always want to be one to lead by example, so in this episode I'm sharing about a challenging experience that I went through and what it taught me. Making it sacred is a life goal of mine in every aspect, and this challenge really called me out in my ability to trust myself and all the work I've done over the years. It's also a reach out to you listeners who feeling either like they would like to deepen their connections with self, or as a reminder that all of us can fall victim to fear sometimes. No matter where we are on this self development journey. Thanks for joining me on this episode of Make It Sacred.

  • 1. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
    As I was recording our Trauma podcast, I realized that ALMOST ALL of the symptoms associated with PTSD and trauma related to Chinese Medicine (or TCM - short for Traditional Chinese Medicine) diagnosis patterns and have the ability to be treated very effectively using this healing modality. So instead of trying to explain it in that podcast, I figured I'd start at square one. Especially since - without a doubt- this topic will be one I come back to over and over again!  Become a Patreon patron at https://www.patreon.com/makeitsacred
