Miranda Sophia is a sovereignty coach for women leaders, healers and mothers who have escaped a narcissistic relationship. She is the creatrix of a transformational system of recovery and reclamation called the Elemental Initiations that guides women from confused, trapped, and maddeningly doubting herself to confident, sovereign and free. As she steps onto her thrown as, what Miranda calls, a SovereignQueen, she reclaims her power, her purpose, her passion, her play and her pleasure.
In this episode, Miranda and I get vulnerable as we share our personal experiences with narcissistic abuse and Miranda shares some tips on how listeners can begin their own healing process. We also chat about honoring our sexual autonomy, female empowerment, trauma healing and so much more.

Today I sit down and chat with Chicago-based Body Transformation Coach Galen Lundin. I was instantly intrigued and drawn to Galen's coaching style because he's one of the few people I've seen address the underlying emotional and mental issues that lead to weight gain and fitness-related frustrations. Galen's use of behavior psychology and neuroscience helps his clients go beyond yo-yo dieting to actually implement long-lasting change, both physically and mentally.
In this episode, Galen and I talk about some of the underlying emotional traumas that can lead to weight struggles, how to discover your "why" with your approach to wellness, why foods aren't "good" or "bad", being aware of your inner mean girl (or guy), how to create momentum, and so much more! See the show notes below for more detail on this interview.

In today's episode I dive deep with men's coach Traver Boehm who is the founder of The Uncivilized Men's Movement and UNcivilized Nation, and author of Man Uncivilized The Book. The work that Traver is doing with men is important, now more than ever. We get into topics like meditation, the duality of the embodied feminine/masculine, how to ask a woman out on a date, how men can "heal their shit", and way, way more. (See the show notes below for some of the specific topics we cover.)
"The dirty little secret that nobody wants to talk about [is] that we need each other… when the feminine has a powerful masculine source in her life, she gets to express that femininity to the upmost degree. When the masculine has a powerful embodied feminine in his life, he gets to experience the masculine to the upmost high degree." - Traver Boehm (minute 16)
