We come with instructions. But through life and experience, our presets shift—and it’s our job to get curious and reprogram our settings for the modern bodies we have now. - Lauri Stern

Ever wondered what your chakras really are—or how to tap into their energy to feel more balanced, vibrant, and YOU?

We’re diving into one of the most colorful (and misunderstood!) parts of energy work with Lauri Stern, certified chakra healer, Reiki practitioner, yoga teacher, and creator of Custom Designed Wellness. Lauri’s on a mission to help you understand yourself from the inside out and step into your own vitality, wholeness, and joy.

You don’t have to be a guru or yogi to work with your chakras. Lauri brings this ancient wisdom into our modern world—making it totally doable (and dare we say... fun!).

Together, we explore:

• What chakras really are and why they matter
• How your energy centers can help you understand your emotional and physical well-being
• Simple ways to balance and activate your chakras in daily life
• How to listen to what your body and spirit are telling you
• Why it’s time to reframe “energy work” as self-awareness—not “woo-woo”

Whether you’re chakra-curious or already fluent in your energy centers, this conversation will help you reconnect to your body’s natural wisdom and remember that your energy holds the instructions for your best, most aligned life.

Woo News is back — and this isn’t your average news roundup. Robyn, Karen, and Lisa (aka our in-house Oracle of All Things Woo) dive into the headlines that made us gasp, giggle, and wonder if the universe is trolling us just a little.

From a scientific study showing that short inspirational videos can reduce stress (yep, almost like meditation!) — to manifestation being explored in labs, psychic detectives, and a teacher who used astrology to seat her students — this episode proves that the “woo” is officially mainstream.

Get ready for your monthly mix of the weird, the wonderful, and the wildly soul-stirring.

IN THIS EPISODE

• The Power of Hope: A new American Psychological Association study reveals that short inspirational videos may reduce stress as effectively as meditation — especially when they spark feelings of hope. 
• Manifestation Meets Science: Researchers are digging into how belief and emotion may actually shape physical reality. We’re breaking down what that means for your next vision board. 
• For years I struggled with infertility and loss. Then I had a life-changing call with a psychic.
• Astrology in the Classroom: One teacher literally used astrology to seat her students… and the results? Cosmic alignment or classroom chaos?
• FBI Agent Robert Hilland and Psychic Medium John Edward Reveal 25 Years of Crime-Solving Teamwork
• The Tiny New York Town Where Mediums Give Voice to the Dead

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Hope is medicine. Whether through meditation or a quick scroll filled with good vibes, inspiration matters.
• Science is finally catching up with spirituality — and we are so here for it.
• There’s no one “right” way to connect with energy — you can mix the mystical with the modern.

TRY THIS

• Instead of your usual scroll, watch a 60-second video that makes you feel something — wonder, joy, awe, hope.
• Close your eyes afterward. Take a breath.
• That calm you feel? That’s your nervous system saying “thank you.”

Lisa helps people transform their spaces into reflections of their souls—places where energy flows freely, creativity expands, and life feels in harmony again.

In this inspiring (and deeply grounding) conversation, Lisa shares:

• Her personal story of burnout and rediscovery—from designing $50 million private jets to healing homes and hearts.
• How feng shui and reiki work together to shift the energy of your environment (and you).
• Simple steps to start aligning your home right now.
• Why clutter, colors, and layout hold energetic clues about your life.
• What happens when your home’s energy matches your soul’s true frequency.

The vibes are intense—and your soul is calling for a check-in. We’re joined by our go-to tarot therapist and intuitive, Michelle Nolan, for your November 2025 energetic forecast. Think of this as your cosmic wellness tune-up to navigate the final chapter of the year with clarity and intention.

We’re deep in Scorpio season, and Michelle is channeling big-time guidance from Spirit to help you:

• Understand the emotional intensity of the month
• Slow down with purpose (hello, Hangman card!)
• Work with Scorpio’s transformative power
• Reclaim your inner knowing

We’re talking about bold Mars energy (yep, remember the Emperor card from October?), a surprising but necessary pause (thanks, Hangman!), and the energetic invitation to shed what no longer serves you—so you can step into your truth with fresh eyes.

Michelle’s messages will guide you to reflect, reframe, and realign as we prepare to close out 2025. Whether you’re feeling charged up, totally confused, or deeply introspective—this episode has a message for you.

PLUS: We touch on the concept of death and rebirth, soul nudges, and how this time of year is your spiritual invitation to go inward… and get real.

This forecast isn’t just about the cards—it’s a reminder that you are magic, and you have everything you need to move forward intentionally.

WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH

• A better understanding of Scorpio season’s energy
• Journal prompts for processing big feels
• Rituals and mindset shifts to help you stay centered
• A fresh perspective for navigating life’s “pauses”

Tune in to this episode for the downloads your soul has been craving.

Something’s shifting — and if you’ve been feeling it, you’re not alone. We’re officially in November, and the energy this month is deep, revealing, and transformational.

We’re joined by our go-to intuitive astrologer, Stevie Calista, to decode what’s in the stars for the month ahead. Week by week, Stevie helps us navigate the cosmic waves — from Mercury retrograde and the Taurus Full Moon to Mars in Sagittarius and the themes of safety, worth, and soulful expansion that will define this season.

Whether you’re moving through personal transformation, seeking clarity, or just trying to make sense of the energy around you, this episode is your roadmap for November — full of insight, grounded guidance, and that dose of cosmic ease we all need right now.

In This Episode:

• What the Taurus Full Moon is illuminating — and how it connects to your sense of worth, values, and safety.
• Mars in Sagittarius and how this fiery placement can reignite your joy, curiosity, and sense of adventure.
• The energy of Mercury Retrograde (Nov 9) — what conversations, tech snafus, and mental shifts to expect and how to move through them with grace.
• Why November continues the shadow work that began in October — and how to find light within the dark.
• Stevie’s guidance on working with the Scorpio–Taurus axis for deep emotional healing, grounding, and sensual self-care.
• Practical tools to stay centered as the cosmic intensity builds (including her favorite rituals for this month’s transits).

Energy Theme of the Month:
Illumination through transformation.
November invites us to look at what’s been buried, face our shadows, and release control — so we can step into deeper authenticity and emotional freedom.

If you’re craving clarity, looking for signs, or just feeling all the things — this episode is for you.

You know those moments when you feel like someone just gets you? Like they see beyond what’s on the surface and tap into something deeper—something soul-level? That’s exactly how you’ll feel with Karen Docherty, an internationally renowned psychic medium and spiritual mentor.

Karen is a bridge between worlds—literally. Her mission is to help you connect with Spirit to receive healing messages, guidance, and love from the other side.
Karen has been communicating with spirit since she was a child—and she’s turned her gift into a calling that’s taken her around the world, guiding thousands to find peace, clarity, and connection after loss.

What’s even more incredible is how Karen helps you recognize your own intuitive abilities. Because as you’ll hear today, we all have the power to connect—Karen just helps us remember how.

So whether you’re navigating grief, feeling disconnected, or just curious about the spirit world… this conversation might be the nudge your soul has been waiting for.

WHAT YOU'LL HEAR

• Karen’s early experiences seeing spirit (yes, even in cemeteries at age 3!)
• The difference between psychic and mediumship readings — and how both can help guide and heal.
• How to recognize and develop your own intuitive gifts.
• Why Spirit also grieves — and how healing takes place on both sides of the veil.
• Real stories of signs from loved ones in Spirit — including beautiful synchronicities and messages that transcend logic.
• Why grief is sacred—and how spirit communication can transform it
• How to start connecting with your higher self through stillness, gratitude, and trust.
• Karen’s thoughts on free will, soul contracts, and how our experiences — even painful ones — can be part of our soul’s growth.

“We are all Spirit in human form. Mediumship just helps us remember who we truly are.” – Karen Docherty

Plus, you’ll walk away with new inspiration to explore your own connection to Spirit—and maybe even start a conversation of your own with the “other side."

TAKEAWAYS

• Intuition is innate — everyone has the ability to connect with Spirit and their higher self.
• Signs are everywhere — Spirit works through synchronicities and subtle nudges to remind you they’re near.
• Healing is mutual — mediumship brings comfort and release to both the living and those in Spirit.
• Authenticity matters — the most powerful readings come from love, integrity, and empathy.
• Gratitude transforms — even the hardest times can serve as catalysts for spiritual growth.

We’re in the middle of a spiritual revolution.

More and more of us are waking up, questioning old systems, and feeling this pull to connect to something deeper. But let’s be real: that awakening? It’s not always easy—and it’s definitely not always clear.

With so much spiritual noise out there—from TikTok trends and “instant manifestation” promises to endless gurus and wellness products—how do you know what’s real? How do you tell the difference between truth and trend? And most importantly… how do you trust yourself on your spiritual path?

That’s exactly what we’re talking about today with the incredible Dr. Amy Robbins—clinical psychologist, spiritual teacher, and host of "Life, Death and The Space Between."

Amy has a gift for blending science and spirituality in a way that feels grounded, empowering, and totally real. 

Together, we’re getting into practical spirituality, exploring: 

• What it means to truly listen to your intuition
• How to spot spiritual red flags
• The connection between psychological and spiritual self-trust
• How to set healthy boundaries in both your life and your spiritual practice
• Ways to navigate the “spiritual clutter” with clarity and confidence
• Why the most important tool on your journey might just be your own inner compass

If you’ve ever thought: “Am I just making this up?”—this episode is for you.

You know those moments when life just stops you in your tracks and says, “Nope, it’s time to rethink everything”? That’s exactly what happened to this week’s guest, Mary Beth Rodriguez. Before Mary Beth was leading transformative cacao ceremonies and helping us all slow down, she was living in the fast lane—a chef, food stylist, buyer, and corporate exec, all rolled into one. (Can you relate?)

Then came a health scare that changed everything, sending her on a journey toward healing, nourishment, and the art of ritual. Enter with/ritual, her wellness brand dedicated to weaving intentional, simple rituals into our everyday lives—so we can reconnect with ourselves and actually breathe for a second.

Robyn recently joined Mary Beth for a cacao ceremony and she will tell you: it cracked something open inside that she didn’t even know needed healing. Yes, it’s that powerful.

So in this episode, we’re diving into:

• What really happens in a cacao ceremony (spoiler: it’s not just about chocolate, but you will want a cup).
• How to create small, doable rituals that bring you back to yourself—no matter how busy you are.
• Mary Beth’s own story of transformation—and why slowing down was the most rebellious thing she could do.
• Ways you can bring a little more stillness and magic into your life, starting right now.

Ready to hit pause and find a little grace in your day? You’re in the right place.
