There are moments when life gently nudges you to pause and ask… is this still right for me?
In this heartfelt episode of Power & Purpose Within, Kori Burgess sits down with Melissa Cruz to explore what it means to realign your life with who you truly are, especially after seasons of loss, change, and quiet reflection.
Melissa shares her journey of letting go of expectations and stepping into a path that feels more honest and intentional. Through her work, she supports women in finding clarity, building confidence, and creating a life that reflects their values not just what the world expects from them.
This conversation offers a softer, more grounded view of growth. Not something you rush or force, but something that unfolds when you slow down, listen, and begin to trust yourself again.
So much of what we carry comes from trying to meet expectations that were never ours to begin with. And over time, that weight can leave us feeling lost, tired, or disconnected from ourselves.
If you’ve been feeling unsure, stretched in too many directions, or ready for something different, this episode is a gentle reminder that you’re allowed to choose a new way forward.
Tune in to the full episode for clarity, encouragement, and a deeper connection back to yourself.

Have you ever said yes while your body was quietly asking for rest?In this episode of Power & Purpose Within, Kori Burgess explores the emotional weight of people-pleasing, overgiving, and constantly putting everyone else first. What looks like kindness on the outside can slowly become burnout, emotional exhaustion, resentment, anxiety, and disconnection from yourself.Many people learn early in life that love means being available, helpful, easy, or needed and those patterns can quietly follow them into adulthood. Saying yes too often may protect others from disappointment, but it can also lead to emotional exhaustion, self-abandonment, and loss of self-trust. This conversation is not about becoming selfish. It is about learning how to create healthy boundaries, protect your peace, and reconnect with your own needs without guilt.Healing sometimes begins with one honest word: no.Thank you for choosing yourself today. Tune in to the full episode for a heartfelt conversation on emotional healing, boundaries, burnout recovery, self-worth, and learning how to come back to yourself.

What if the thing you’ve been struggling with is actually something your body is trying to heal?
In this powerful episode of Power & Purpose Within, Kori Burgess sits down with Sarah Putney, the creator of Remothering Mamas, to explore what it truly means to heal from the inside out through somatic breathwork and body-led awareness.
Sarah shares her journey of moving beyond traditional talk therapy and into a deeper connection with the body, where emotions, memories, and healing are not just understood but felt, processed, and released. Through her work, she helps women, especially mothers and healers, reconnect with themselves in a way that feels safe, grounded, and deeply transformative.
This conversation opens up a new way of looking at healing. Not as something you force through thinking harder, but something you allow through slowing down, listening, and learning the language of your body.
A lot of what we carry isn’t just daily stress. It’s unprocessed emotion stored quietly over time, often hidden beneath the surface of a life that looks fine on the outside.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’ve tried everything but still feel stuck, this episode offers a gentle invitation back to yourself.
