Sometimes the main force getting in the way of your progress is YOU. Many times we block ourselves mentally from believing that we can achieve the things we desire. It’s important to take the time to sit back and ask yourself where these self limiting thoughts and behaviors are coming from.

Setting boundaries can definitely be a touchy subject. If you’re anything like me you sometimes avoid setting boundaries with those around you due to feelings of guilt. In this episode I discuss how to transmute those feelings and set healthy boundaries.

Have you ever felt like you’re running out of time? Like you should have accomplished AB&C by a certain age? Do you ever question why your path looks different than others? If you feel or have felt this way you are not alone. In this episode I dive into the false timelines placed upon us and why it’s important to silence the noise & listen to the voice inside of YOU.

In today’s episode I am joined by Sara Cardinale, creator of Bloom and Manifest. Her brand is a spiritual blog where she helps empaths and spiritual seekers find their power and walk in their truth.

Living in a society where “more is more” we are constantly dwelling on what’s missing, what we don’t have, or what’s next. Sometimes we forget to be grateful for what we have in this very moment. The more we express gratitude, the more abundance we allow to flow into our lives. It’s the little things. The breath in our lungs, the sun shining above us, and the ground beneath our feet. We may not always have what we want but we always have what we need. This episode covers the power of gratitude and a few simple ways to practice it daily.

Birthdays and growing older really gets a bad reputation. When we’re kids birthdays are exciting and we take each new age on with pride. That seems to slow down as we get older and we desperately try to hold on to our younger years. In reality, growing older is a huge blessing. Each year is another opportunity to grow and create the life you want. Like the late great Nipsey Hussle said “Every 12 months you live another year you ball”. This episode is a reflection on everything I’ve learned and experienced up until this point, and how it’s shaped the woman I am today.

A question I’ve been faced with a lot lately is “When did you stop trusting yourself?”. As crazy as it may sound, many people including myself struggle with fearlessly trusting their intuition. We are quick to give our decision making power over to the next person, or a google search, or any other outside source. Anything to take the responsibility off of our shoulders. What we fail to realize is that with that responsibility comes tremendous power...power to create your reality and be a true alchemist of your life. I believe that there’s no better time than now for us as a collective to take steps toward silencing that inner critic, and amplifying our intuition, trusting that it will never steer your wrong.

“We must love each other and support each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains” -Assata Shakur. Having a sense of community is something that has been lost in our individualistic society. A’Kia and Alex Walker are great examples of community leaders and mentors that use their knowledge and experience to inspire others. Through their fitness endeavor Power Belly Fitness and community program Stanco Youth Empowerment Program they provide education and resources to aid in empowering the people. Being the light to lead the way for those coming after you is what the world needs more of, and it starts in the community. It truly does take a village!

“The highest human act is to inspire” - Nipsey Hussle. Health and wellness is something that is often made to be over complicated and even intimidating to dive into. In reality, it all becomes so simple when you bring it back to the source. That’s exactly what my special guest today advocates for. Ashley Lucas is a holistic health advocate who drops all the gems when it comes to holistic health knowledge and products based on her experience. Her goal is to inspire others to create a healthy connection between mind, body, and spirit through what we consume. Our bodies are temples so let’s start treating them as such!
