The Low & Slow Podcast

From Force to Freedom

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, Crystal & Laken unpack one of the most exhausting inner tug-of-wars high-capacity women face: the swing between discipline and devotion.

Discipline, as most women were taught, feels like grit-your-teeth force — living in the future, chasing the next win, postponing rest until you’ve “earned it.”
 Devotion, on the other hand, feels like a soft pull into the present — intuitive, attuned, alive. But without structure, devotion can quietly turn into drift… where “aligned” becomes avoidance and outcomes start to blur.

Inside this tension lives a familiar pattern:
 ✨ future-fixated grind ↔ present-moment float
 Neither side alone feels like freedom.

Crystal & Laken explore how discipline doesn’t have to be punishment, and devotion doesn’t have to mean lack of direction. Together, they reframe both as supportive forces — when held in balance — and offer a new way to relate to structure, presence, and self-trust.

This conversation is an invitation to stop choosing sides and start creating a container that holds both: discipline that serves you, and devotion that keeps you connected to yourself.

✨ Freedom isn’t found in force or flow alone — it’s found in the dance between the two.

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, hosts Crystal & Laken dive into a pattern almost every woman knows too well — self-abandonment. The moments where you silence your needs, override your intuition, say yes when you mean no, or shape-shift into who you think you’re supposed to be.

They unpack why women learn these behaviors, how people-pleasing becomes a survival strategy, and the subtle ways self-abandonment erodes authenticity, boundaries, and emotional well-being.

Through real conversation, somatic awareness, and their signature Low & Slow approach, Crystal & Laken show listeners how to notice the pattern, create space before reacting, and normalize the process of rebuilding self-loyalty one choice at a time.

This episode is equal parts compassion and clarity — a gentle call-in toward remembering that you matter too, and your needs aren’t negotiable.

✨ Self-abandonment might be familiar… but self-loyalty is your birthright.

Tune in if you’re ready to:

• Identify your people-pleasing patterns
  
  
  
• Understand the root of self-abandonment
  
  
  
• Build self-awareness and body cues around “the freeze”
  
  
  
• Normalize saying no (without apologizing)
  
  
  
• Make choices from grounded presence, not panic
  
  
  
• Break the resentment cycle created by over-giving
  
  
  
• Practice vulnerability and authentic self-expression
  
  
  
• Build evidence for self-trust and self-loyalty
•

Ways to work with us: Book With Crystal - Book With Laken 

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, Crystal & Laken get real about the voice every woman knows too well — the inner mean girl. The critic. The spiraler. The one who pushes, pokes, doubts, and demands.

But here’s the truth:
 She’s not going anywhere.
 And pretending she isn’t there only makes her louder.

Instead of trying to silence her, Crystal & Laken teach you how to work with her — to get curious, create separation from her voice, and transform that inner critic into an inner hype girl who motivates you from compassion, not shame.

This conversation goes deep into the tricky relationship between shame and motivation — especially for high-achieving women who’ve learned to use pressure as fuel. Together, they break down why shame “burns hot,” why it’s not sustainable, and how self-expectations can quietly sabotage your peace, productivity, and self-worth.

✨ The goal isn’t to get rid of your inner critic — it’s to understand her, rewire her, and give her a new job.

Tune in if you’re ready to:

• Recognize your inner mean girl without identifying AS her
  
  
  
• Understand the difference between shame-driven motivation and sustainable discipline
  
  
  
• Catch spiraling before it snowballs
  
  
  
• Build self-compassion as your new internal baseline
  
  
  
• Shift from harsh expectations to empowering self-talk
  
  
  
• Become your own hype girl — grounded, clear, and confident

Meet the Three Archetypes of the Women We Serve

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, Crystal & Laken introduce The TGM Trilogy—the three core archetypes of the women they coach, support, and empower inside That Girl Magic.

These archetypes aren’t labels…

They’re mirrors.

They help women understand where they are, what they’re carrying, and what they need next in their personal growth journey.

Crystal & Laken unpack how each archetype shows up in her self-talk, emotional world, survival patterns, and the stories she tells herself. Through honest conversation and real-life examples, they explore the themes of feeling stuck, struggling to ask for help, navigating self-reliance, and finding the courage to soften into support.

This episode is a moment of deep self-reflection—an invitation for listeners to see themselves more clearly and compassionately. Because the truth is:

✨ Feeling stuck doesn’t mean you have to stay stuck.

✨ Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.

✨ You don’t need all the answers to move forward.

✨ Awareness is the first step toward empowerment.

Tune in if you’re ready to:

Identify which TGM archetype you resonate with

Understand the patterns beneath your self-talk

Honor your feelings without judgment

Ask for support in a way that feels safe

Begin the shift from stuck → self-led

Empower your next level of personal growth!

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, Crystal & Laken share something special — a peek into their next evolution: the Peace. Play. Love. Women’s Retreat, coming June 2026.

Joined by their dear friend and fellow coach Laura Southall, the conversation flows like a reunion of sisters — one rooted in divine connection, deep trust, and the kind of alignment that only happens when the right people find each other at the right time.

Together, they share the story behind how they met, the sacred sisterhood that blossomed through their mastermind experience, and how their shared values inspired the creation of this transformative retreat experience for women.

The Peace. Play. Love. retreat is designed for high-capacity women who appear “together” but feel disconnected inside — the ones who are ready to release survival mode, reconnect with their voice, and return home to peace, play, and self-trust. Through storywork, somatic practice, and identity reinvention, this retreat invites women to dismantle guilt and shame while rediscovering their power.

✨ This isn’t just a getaway — it’s a remembrance. A recalibration. A return to yourself.

Tune in if you’re ready to:

Hear the heart behind the Peace. Play. Love. retreat

Feel what true sisterhood and divine connection sound like

Learn how storywork, somatics, and identity work transform women from the inside out

Be inspired to say yes to your own reinvention

In this episode of The Low & Slow Podcast, your hosts Crystal & Laken find their flow — riffing, laughing, and diving deep into one of the most relatable conversations yet: the top five areas women struggle.

This one starts a little spicy and sets the tone for what’s to come. From the inner mean girl and negative self-talk to spiraling thoughts and self-identity, Crystal and Laken unpack what it really looks like to navigate your inner world while holding it all together.

With real-life examples, humor, and heart, they explore how the stories we tell ourselves shape our emotions, decisions, and sense of self. It’s honest girl talk — the kind that feels like sitting down with your best friends, taking a deep breath, and realizing you’re not alone in what you’re feeling.

✨ Your inner voice doesn’t define you — it’s just time you learned how to talk back.

Tune in if you’re ready to:

• Get real about your self-talk and inner critic
  
  
  
• Understand how spiraling starts (and how to stop it)
  
  
  
• Reconnect with your authentic self beneath the noise
  
  
  
• Learn why mindfulness and self-awareness are game changers

Together, Crystal and Laken unpack what it really means to commit to yourself, trust your decisions, and keep moving even when the path feels unclear.

✨ Sometimes clarity doesn’t come before the leap — it comes because of it.
