Still Within

In this episode Emma shares how her story of seemingly falling apart was actually just opening her up.   This episode touches on shame, the inner self critic and how we actually learn to befriend and meet ourselves with self compassion.  We talk about unmet needs and the coping mechanisms we develop because of unmet needs.  Emma and I discuss the idea of breaking apart and how that breaking is where where the light can come in.  She is such a gem to speak with and shares profound wisdom on self compassion.  This conversation reminds us that self compassion meets you where you are and it isn't something, but rather something we remember.  And returning to ourselves, again and again, is essential to our healing and our human experience.

 In this episode, Marina shares her powerful story of being diagnosed with epilepsy after experiencing a seizure, and how that part of her story became the catalyst for deep personal growth and a path to fulfillment.

We explore what it means to listen when the body speaks, how to develop self trust and why unexpected diagnoses can awaken a new level of awareness, leading us to follow our nudges.   Building trust allows us to seek soul-level fulfillment and alignment, versus staying the course on the path that we are on.  We talk about our comfort zone (familiar zone) and how trying something new challenges our nervous systems and our idea of failure--and why building safety in our nervous system is essentional.

If you’ve ever felt called to something greater after walking through pain, this conversation will remind you that your body’s wisdom is guiding you home.

Quote mentioned in episode is by Rainer Maria Rilke:"Be patient toward all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue.  Do not now seek the answers which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them.  And the point is, to live everything.  Live the questions now.  Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer."

In this episode, Emily Eliza Moyer, an intuitive business coach, and I explore the deeper layers beneath making big life decisions, money and fear.  We talk about how early life experiences influence the decisions we make, the little voice that calls us forward, the conditioning that taught us survival over alignment, what happens when we take a leap of faith, and when we make the difficult choice to be ourself--we can actually heal.  She reminds us that safety is something we cultivate when we make decisions for us--not for someone else. You’ll hear reflections on how fear disguises itself as practicality, and how to begin discerning the voice of intuition from the noise of past programming.

 When you feel safe in your body, you stop chasing safety in the external world—and from that space, everything begins to change.  Listen to this episode to find out how to make decisions from your soul--not your wounds, release your old patterning that holds you back and to listen to what your body tells you in order to expand into higher versions of yourself and actually take the chance on your dream life.

Cami Ostman, therapist, author, runner and founder of The Narrative Project and the Phoenix Lessons joins me on this episode to explore how the stories we carry shape our lives.  We discuss leaving things that are out of alignment, breaking free from limiting narratives, and rising from the ashes to transform.  In this conversation, Cami honors how hard life can be, reflects on what it takes to change (particularly when it comes to attachment wounds), and what is at stake if we let the parts of ourselves holding us back run us.  We discuss practices to help tune into our inner guide and explore the relationship with discomfort.  

Whether you're navigating personal growth, healing from the past, or seeking a deeper connection to your true self, this episode offers a compassionate and grounded roadmap. Tune in to learn how rewriting your story can become the foundation for living in alignment—with your purpose, your truth, and your future.

In this episode, Julia McClean, a naturopath and shaman, and I explore how the victim mindset can silently shape our identity, how the ego resists change, and how illness can become one of our greatest teachers.

We dive into what it really means to address old patterning, shift out of limitation, and listen to the deeper wisdom of your body.  Julia explores old traumas stored in our bodies and the wisdom of our soul.  This conversation invites you to meet the obstacles on your path with curiosity—and begin rewriting the story from within.
