This episode is for the woman navigating the space between who she was taught to be and who she truly is. The one who feels the pull toward her Indigenous roots while still moving through a modern world. Walking in two worlds isn't always easy - but it's sacred work. In this conversation, I share what I've learned about honouring both the modern and the medicine, and how you can navigate the pathway as well.

In this episode, I riff on:

• what it really means to walk in two worlds
• embracing your full self - even the walking contradictions
• the role of ancestral and generational healing
• letting go of the colonial "should's"
• integrating an Indigenous worldview into your leadership

This week's episode is a transmission straight from my personal transformation. I share what's been moving through me over the past month - a deep reckoning with ego death(s), an awareness of plutophobia (the fear of wealth), and the fear of leaving people behind. These aren't just individual experiences; they're collective initiations that so many Indigenous women and men are navigating as we rise, reclaim, and remember.

I open up about what these experiences have looked and felt like for me, how they're connected to ancestral trauma and colonial conditioning, and what it takes to move through them. This is for anyone who's walking through a portal of becoming and needs a reminder that you are not alone - you are breaking cycles and building legacy.

In this episode, I explore:

• What plutophobia really is and how it blocks Indigenous wealth and success

• How guilt can hold us back from our potential

• The sacred unraveling of an ego death and what it looks like

• How to reframe success so you don't fear abandoning your people

In this solo episode, I share the sacred and sometimes challenging journey of reconnecting to one's Indigenous roots while navigating life in two worlds - the modern and the medicine. I speak candidly about identity, ancestral healing, spiritual initiation, and the transformative power of embracing the Seven Sacred Teachings. This episode is for Indigenous women who are also reclaiming their culture, breaking generational cycles, and seeking to live in alignment with their true purpose - personally and professionally.

In this episode, Rach riffs on:

• The realities and complexities of living between two worlds

• Facing and integrating deep ancestral and personal trauma

• The initiations of embodying the Seven Sacred Teachings

• The importance of decolonizing mindset and business practices

• Embracing your mission and walking the Red Road with humility and courage

Today's special guest is Waubgeshig (aka Waub) Rice - an author and former journalist living in Sudbury, Ontario. He is of Anishinaabe and Canadian descent, and grew up in his father's home community of Wasauksing First Nation, an island community on Georgian Bay near Parry Sound. He's written three novels and a short story collection. He worked for nearly two decades as a journalist, mostly with CBC, while he wrote fiction in my spare time. He is the author of Moon of the Crusted Snow & Moon of the Turning Leaves. He was fortunate to grow up in a time when my home community was reclaiming and reconnecting with Anishinaabe culture and stories, and those experiences have largely informed and influenced the storytelling journey he's on today.

In this episode we discuss:

• growing up during a cultural reclamation and how this has influenced his life
• raising children with Anishinaabe values and traditions
• what sparked his passion for writing at a young age
• a glimpse into Waub's writing process
• advice on getting published as an Indigenous author

If you're having a "bad" day or feeling off, this one's for you. I almost didn't record today because I couldn't fake the high-vibe energy. So instead, I got real - because masking our emotions only takes us further from the medicine we need. This is a permission slip to pause, feel deeply, and connect with your Spiritual Counsel for guidance. Your bounce-back rate is your superpower. Let's explore how to hold the duality and move through the funk with compassion and curiosity.

In this convo, Rach riffs on:

• How a sudden shift in frequency can be a sign you're meeting your next level
• How to honour and alchemize negative emotions, instead of shaming them
• Simple but powerful practices to move through heavy energy
• How I use my signature method to come back home to myself

In this episode, we're diving deep into what it really means to lead with integrity - especially as Indigenous women reclaiming our power, our voice, and our value in business. Inspired by a recent experience that challenged me to hold my boundaries and reflect on what I truly stand for, this conversation explores the sacred responsibility we carry as leaders. We'll walk through the teachable moments that emerged - not from blame, but from embodiment.

This is a heart-led reminder that leadership isn't just about what you do - it's about how you do it. And when we lead from a place of truth, courage, and love, even the hardest moments become medicine.

We're talking: → the energetic power of honouring your word → why integrity is the foundation of heart-centered leadership → how the Seven Sacred Teachings guide us in business → the importance of protecting your medicine and your boundaries

In this solo episode, I'm unpacking the truth about the "gap" so many of us feel between our current reality and the life we know we're meant for. Whether it's in your relationships, career, or money - the problem isn't that you're not doing enough. It's that your subconscious, nervous system, and energetic setpoint might still be aligned with the old you. I share how we bridge that gap from the inside out using my science-based, Indigenous-led method rooted in deep inner rewiring and sacred self-reclamation.

In this episode, I riff on:

• Why this "gap" exists and what to do about it
• How subconscious beliefs and nervous system dysregulation create repeating patterns in relationships, career, and money
• Examples of how your current programming keeps you from what you desire
• How to stop sabotaging and start creating your dream life
