Sometimes it feels as if we are either Brainiac running around trying to remember 18 different things or we’re a big ball of emotions stuffed into these rickety bodies. But we are everything! We are an interconnectedness miracle.

We all want to bring in more good feelings, emotions, experiences -- but guess what, you’ve got to make figurative room for them. By intentionally releasing what no longer serves you you free up space for that which does! And in turn ALLOWS you to release your power to become your brightest self.

As we have now marked a full year of living differently, living a little more alone or a little more together, we check in on how we’re really doing and how we’re hoping to show up for ourselves and others moving forward.

The wheel of the year keeps turning and we find ourselves approaching Ostara and the Spring Equinox in the northern hemisphere.  During this season of rebirth and planting, we start to consider what needs to be released in our lives to allow a rebirth to occur and our intentions to grow.

Consider how your environment affects you, especially as we spend most of our time where we live! Amy and Tracy chat about how harmonizing your environment can harmonize your day and your life. It’s like a BRIGHTEN-UP for your home!

Setting goals gives purpose to the way we live our lives -- the way we go about our days -- sometimes, our frame of mind when we wake up every day. So how do we go about reaching these goals or even deciding on a goal? Join Tracy and Amy as they talk about setting goals.

Did you know you can use divination tools to have a conversation with yourself and / or a higher power to tap into your inner knowing and help you discover more about yourself and the life you want to build? In episode 8, Discovery, Tracy and Amy share the tools they’ve used to help them overcome blocks, set goals, gain insight into their own character, and connect to the core of who they are.

Our subconscious mind can’t tell the difference between what is real and what is imagined--and we know this to be true with the bad stuff! We can worry ourselves sick without anything having actually happened to us. Join Amy & Tracy as they share ways in which they’re exploring visualization and the art of vision boards.

How do you know or feel when it's the right time to start or end something? Listen in as Amy & Tracy share ways in which they’re trying to be more intentional in moving with instead of through cosmic and personal cycles when setting goals and taking action. Cycles covered include personal rhythms like age, life stage, and your physical body; as well as the more cosmic influences with moon phases, the sun (solstices & equinoxes), astrology, and the wheel of the year or sabbats.
