We have been conditioned to push our heavy feelings down, and show up in the world with a smile. However, we know that this is unhealthy. If we don't process our emotions in a healthy way, they will continue to show up when we are triggered, and can hold us back from reaching our full potential. This is why it is important to find healthy ways to feel our feelings, so we can heal and let go. Finding safe spaces to use coping mechanisms and process our feelings will allow us to be free of the pain that is holding us back. You've got to feel it to heal it, and we will be here for you every step of the way. We love you!!!

When we experience traumatic events as children without the tools to process them, this trauma stays stored in the body. It can cause us to live in fight or flight mode and respond poorly to triggering situations. Until we get to the root of the wound, it will impact our lives and relationships. In this week's episode, we discuss our own childhood wounds, and the practices we use to help soothe and heal them. This topic can be heavy, but the light enters where the wound is. We are here for you on this healing journey, you are never alone!

Have you ever traveled to a foreign country for an extended time, only to return home and find it difficult to adjust back into your usual norms? That awkward in-between phase where you were once one person, but are now returning a changed individual to the same places, people, and environments?  Then you will understand why Integration is so important to the healing journey. When we experience profound, rapid healing or timeline jumping (think yoga retreat, getting sober, healing old trauma) we might find ourselves having a difficult time adjusting to our physical surroundings as our new self. This is normal, and we have to allow ourselves the space to integrate the knowledge and lessons learned into our 3D surroundings. In this episode we give you tools to integrate the lessons you are learning, and the good news is - all you need to "do" is just "be." You got this, and we love you!

Confidence comes from within, and true beauty is an inside job. This is why fad diets and extreme routines for weight loss are rarely successful. If you are approaching your body from an energy of dislike, disgust, or even hate, you will continue to see the negative physical signs repeat. What our body and soul are truly craving is love and acceptance. Where you are most uncomfortable and insecure is where you likely require the most love and acceptance in order to level up. We know that loving parts of yourself that you don't find attractive or like-able is not easy, so we recommend starting with neutrality. Become neutral to the parts that you once felt a negative charge toward, and you will be amazed at how quickly the physical results will reflect this internal change. When we focus on self-love, self-acceptance, and healing, our physical body will radiate with confidence and beauty. You are truly worthy of loving every single part of yourself, we love you!

Discipline for us means choosing to do the more difficult thing now in order to make life easier later.  When we choose to cook at home over ordering take-out, hit the gym rather than watch a movie, meditate instead of scroll.. we are choosing to do the thing that takes more effort, but ultimately is much better for us in the long-run. When we hold ourselves accountable to the standards of the highest version of ourselves, the universe responds accordingly. Staying disciplined allows us to reach a level of freedom where we are able to flow through the universe with ease.  The word "Discipline" may have been one that held negative or fearful meaning in the past, but we have reframed discipline to be a key aspect to unlocking personal power and freedom. Give yourself grace on this journey too. It is not about how many slip-ups happen, but rather how quickly you pull yourself back on track. We are in this together, we love you!

Expectation is the root of heartache. Letting go of your idea of how things need to be, and surrendering control to the universe is a powerful way to open the door to even greater possibilities. There are infinite outcomes available for you, and when we quiet our mind and the outside noise, we allow the inspired ideas that are aligned in so we can take action towards our manifestation! We know sometimes the grip is tight, and letting go can be very difficult work. We are in this journey with you, and we want to give you the tools we have used to release what no longer serves us, while making room for what is truly meant for us! You got this, and we got you!

We are in our Selfish era, and we want to tell you why it's time to make the shift from selfless to selfish. Putting yourself first might be something you have never done, as many of us have been raised as people pleasers. However, we have come to learn that you must fill your cup first, and full, before you can fill another. We are better able to serve others when we have served ourselves first.  This does not mean we only think about ourselves, it means we realize that we are best able to show up for others once we have fully showed up for ourselves! Making the transition from people pleaser to self-healer can be tricky, and we are deep in the practice ourselves. Join us as we set intentions for how we will be more Selfish in our lives! We love you so much.

We are honored to have a very special guest join us on the podcast today, Diana Poulos, as she bravely opens up about her journey navigating grief after the loss of both of her parents. Her story is powerful, raw, and potent as she shares about the experience, the difficult emotions it brought, the darkness that came, and the light that she has now found. Diana radiates courage and strength, and her story is incredibly inspirational for finding hope in the darkest of times. Grief opens up a portal to deeper wisdom and understanding of living life. There is hope and light at the end of the grief tunnel, and you can come out of it a more resilient individual. We are so grateful to Diana for telling us her story today. This episode was made in loving memory of Ward & Juliet Poulos, and for all of our loved ones who aren't physically here with us today: We feel you and we love you forever.
