In this episode, I talk about power in a way that most of us were never taught. Not power as winning, not power as proving a point, but power as movement and as growth. As becoming someone a fight can’t even reach.

I share why reacting, defending yourself, and constantly engaging keeps you stuck in the same cycles with the same people. Why it feels exhausting and why it never actually solves anything, even when you’re “right.”

This conversation comes from lived experience, custody battles, legal situations, being scammed and long-standing relational dynamics where someone believed they had leverage. I break down the framework I developed through those moments and how it helped me stop organizing my life around resistance.

We talk about the drama triangle and how easy it is to stay trapped in it, how most power struggles are just different roles in the same pattern and what shifts when you move out of reaction and into authorship of your own life.

This episode is about building a life that doesn’t require constant explanation, defense, or permission. About investing your energy forward instead of sideways. And about what happens when your focus is on trajectory, not confrontation.

If you’re dealing with a difficult person or situation.

If you’re tired of being pulled into dynamics that drain you.

If you’re ready to stop fighting and start moving on your own terms.

This episode will make sense to you.

In this conversation, I talk about what it really takes to build something without losing yourself in the process.

We talk about the first beauty brand I built that ended prematurely. What that experience taught me about rushing, forcing, and tying my worth to outcomes. And how Ra Beauty came together slowly, over the years, even though it looked fast from the outside.

This isn’t a conversation about products or aesthetics, it’s about how you lead when things don’t go as planned.

And what changes when you stop building from pressure and start building from stillness and ease.

If you’re rebuilding after something didn’t work.
If you’re tired of pushing just to prove you can.
If you’re learning how to stay grounded while still moving forward.

This episode will make sense to you.

This episode is a reflection on what happens when loss, betrayal, pressure, and responsibility collide and you’re still expected to keep going. It’s about custody battles, a business fallout, being scammed by someone you trusted. And learning, in real time, what no longer works.

This is not a highlight reel.

It’s an honest account of what it took to survive a year that stripped everything down to the essentials.

𝗪𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴.
• How discernment is learned the hard way.
• Why pushing through comes with a cost.
• And how letting go became the only way forward.

This conversation is also about the shift I’m making going into 2026.

Moving from goals alone to intentions that protect your health, your peace, and your integrity.

Choosing sustainability over punishment.

And committing fully to yourself, even when the season looks nothing like what you imagined.

𝗪𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
• What 2025 taught me about resilience and limits
• Why loss forces clarity faster than success ever will
• The difference between goals that drain you and intentions that guide you
• How boundaries protect what matters most
• What it means to stop abandoning yourself for other people’s comfort

This episode is for anyone coming out of a hard year and asking how to move forward without carrying the weight of what nearly broke them. You don’t need to rush. You don’t need to perform. You do need to be honest about what you’re no longer willing to sacrifice.

If this resonates, I’d love to hear from you in the comments.

#MetaBusinessMillennial #Burnout #Boundaries #LettingGo #Leadership #Alignment #Intentions

If you’ve ever felt mentally exhausted, emotionally overwhelmed, or physically unwell despite doing everything “right,” this conversation will change how you understand burnout, productivity, and the signals your body is sending.

In this episode, we explore the moment when high performance turns into self-abandonment—and why burnout isn’t about weakness or laziness, but long-term misalignment.

Burnout isn’t just about working too much. It’s about the beliefs underneath the work.

My guest, Haley Scruggs, shares her breaking point—from severe burnout and panic to questioning her own sanity—and how her body ultimately forced her to listen. What looked like dysfunction was actually a signal calling her back into alignment.

We talk about how ADHD, chronic stress, and the pressure to prove worth through productivity quietly rewire the nervous system—until the body speaks through anxiety, insomnia, migraines, digestive issues, and shutdown.

This isn’t a conversation about hacks or routines. It’s about asking the question most people avoid:

What do I actually need?

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝘄𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
• Why burnout is a signal, not a flaw
• How ADHD and hustle culture collide
• The myth that productivity equals worth
• Why boundaries fail without belief shifts
• How the body communicates misalignment
• What changes when you listen to your energy, not just your calendar

I also share how this reflects the core of my MetaBusiness work—where success is built through alignment, not self-sacrifice. This episode is for anyone ready to stop surviving, release over-performance, and build a life and career that feels sustainable and whole.

#BurnoutRecovery #ADHDWomen #MetaBusinessMillennial #HolisticSuccess #FeminineLeadership #NervousSystemHealing

If you’ve ever hit major milestones yet still felt trapped, anxious, or disconnected from your own life, this conversation will change the way you think about success and what it actually means to be free.

We talk about the moment when achievement stops feeling like fulfillment, and why so many people find themselves “successful” on paper but exhausted in spirit.

A lot of high performers believe the next level comes from working harder, grinding longer, or forcing their way forward. But what if the real breakthrough begins the moment you slow down?

What if freedom, not hustle, is the real measure of success?

In this episode, I sit down with business consultant and Winner’s Circle host Jay Adewole to explore the mindset shift that took him from a $250K job to a year of making only $40K, and then to building a million-dollar business. Jay shares the story of leaving the safety of a high-paying role, hitting a wall, and the bold month-long pause that helped him rebuild his entire life and business from a new level of clarity.

His transformation didn’t start with another strategy. It started with stillness, honesty, and a decision to build a life where freedom leads the way.

Together we explore:
• Why “busyness” is the biggest obstacle to real success
• How stepping back can grow your business faster than pushing forward
• The difference between security and freedom
• What happens when you stop surviving and start leading
• Why redefining success can open doors you didn’t know existed
• How entrepreneurship becomes a path of self-liberation

I also share how Jay’s story mirrors my own path in MetaBusiness — where the real work begins the moment you release the pressure to “perform” success and finally choose to live it on your terms. Because when your purpose, energy, and leadership align, success becomes a reflection of your freedom instead of the price you pay for it.

This conversation is for every woman and man who is ready to step out of the grind, reclaim their power, and build a life where freedom is the real flex.

#FeminineLeadership #MetaBusinessMillennial #HolisticSuccess #FreedomMindset #WomenInBusiness #SpiritualEntrepreneurship

If you’ve ever wondered why you can accomplish so much yet still feel tense, stuck, or disconnected from yourself, this conversation will shift the way you think about growth, healing, and leadership.

We talk about the moments when the body speaks louder than the mind, and what happens when you stop performing strength and start embodying it.

So many high-achieving women try to think their way to the next level. More strategy, more mindset, more discipline.
But what if your next breakthrough isn’t in your mind at all?
What if your body has been holding the answers the entire time?

In this episode, I sit down with somatic leadership coach Lily Shepard to explore how movement, nervous system awareness, and embodied expression can unlock the parts of you that mindset work alone can’t touch. Lily shares her story of navigating divorce, foreclosure, bankruptcy, and identity loss, and the moment Spirit whispered one word that changed everything: move.

Her healing didn’t start with a plan. It started with a primal, messy, intuitive movement practice that helped her rebuild from the inside out.

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
• How your body stores stress and unprocessed emotion
• Why movement opens creativity and intuition
• The difference between performing strength and embodying it
• How regulated leadership changes your business and your relationships
• Why innovation and resilience start in the nervous system, not the mind

I also share how Lily’s journey mirrors my own path as a dancer and Tai Chi practitioner, where healing didn’t come from thinking harder but from letting my body teach me what my mind couldn’t see. Because when your body, purpose, and frequency align, success becomes something you feel instead of something you chase.

This conversation is for every woman who is ready to lead from wholeness, devote herself to her inner wisdom, and let her next level come through embodiment, not exhaustion.

#FeminineLeadership #SomaticHealing #EmbodiedSuccess #MetaBusinessMillennial #WomenInBusiness #IntuitiveLeadership

If you’ve ever wondered how faith and technology could coexist or how to build a business that serves both God and the world, this conversation will expand your definition of success.

We talk about the divine orchestration behind every so-called coincidence, and how aligning purpose with business can transform your entire path. Most entrepreneurs chase freedom through control. The next launch, the next system, the next metric. But what if real freedom came from surrender? What if your strategy started with prayer?

In this episode, I sit down with Matthew Potter, co-founder of Pray.com, to explore how faith, purpose, and innovation can merge into a global mission that changes lives. Matthew shares his journey from being adopted as a child to meeting Steve Jobs, building one of the most successful real estate app companies in the U.S., and ultimately answering God's call to create Pray.com, a platform blending prayer, science, and technology to support millions around the world.

Together we explore
How divine timing guides your calling
Why surrender is the most powerful business strategy
The science behind prayer and mental health
How to find peace and purpose in seasons of uncertainty
The difference between building for profit and building for God

I also share how Matthew's story mirrors my own journey, where success stops being a checklist and becomes a spiritual practice. Because when you align your business with your purpose, impact stops being something you chase and starts being something you embody.

This conversation is for every leader ready to merge purpose with prosperity and let their mission become their ministry.

#Confidence #SelfWorth #ImposterSyndrome #SoulWork

If you’ve ever doubted your worth despite all your success, or felt that quiet voice inside asking “Who am I really,” this conversation will awaken something deeper.

We talk about how ego, trauma, and self-doubt disconnect us from our true power, and how sol work brings us back home to it.

Most of us were taught that confidence comes from achievement. The next win, the next cheap validation or the next big title.

But what if confidence didn’t come from doing more? What if it came from remembering who you already are?

In this episode, I sit down with Markus Neukom, a Swiss transformational guide and leadership mentor, to explore how deep Sol work builds the kind of confidence that can’t be shaken by circumstance. Markus shares his wisdom on ego, imposter syndrome, and soul-led leadership, where your power no longer depends on what you achieve, but on how deeply you know yourself.

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲
  • How to turn trauma into a source of strength
  • Why imposter syndrome is really a disconnection from self
  • How the sol heals what the mind can’t understand
  • The difference between performing confidence and embodying it
  • What real leadership looks like when it’s guided by the sol, not the ego

I also open up about my own season of loss, motherhood, and rebuilding trust in myself, and how learning to follow my sol became the most courageous act of all.

This conversation is about returning to wholeness, and leading from the part of you that’s never been broken.

Because when you lead from the sol, confidence stops being something you build and becomes something you remember.

About Markus Neukom:

Markus Neukom is a guide to those who have reached success, only to find themselves asking, “Is this it—or is there more?” Through Stillness Councils, private conversations, and speaking engagements, he serves as a mirror for those ready to remember what the world taught them to forget. His presence is less performance and more transmission—inviting others to return to the intelligence beneath their roles, titles, and timelines. Markus doesn’t offer strategies—he holds a field. And in that field, what’s truly ready to emerge… does.

 #Confidence #SelfWorth #ImposterSyndrome #SoulWork

If you’ve ever struggled to say no without guilt or found yourself overgiving in relationships, work, or business, this conversation will change how you see boundaries forever.

Most of us were taught that boundaries are walls, a way to keep people out.

But what if they were actually the bridge back to self trust, compassion, and freedom?

In this episode, I sit down with Mariya Graestone, a Love and Boundaries Coach and creator of The Gates Method — a five-step framework for creating boundaries that feel good instead of harsh. Mariya shares her journey from burnout and bankruptcy to deep embodiment and spiritual alignment, revealing what it really takes to honor yourself in every area of life.

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
  • How to set boundaries without guilt or fear
  • Why compassion and power must coexist
  • What true self trust looks like in action
  • How to regulate your nervous system when saying no
  • The energetic shift that turns boundaries into freedom

I open up about my own season of loss, heartbreak, and legal battles — and how learning to stand in self worth became the most spiritual act of all.

This conversation is not about being tougher. It’s about being truer.
It’s about remembering that boundaries aren’t rejection, they’re redirection back to your highest self.

Because when you choose yourself, everything in your life begins to align with love.

If you have ever walked through the heartbreak of a divorce or break up, you know it carries a weight far beyond the papers filed in court. It touches your identity, your sense of worth, your dreams for the future, even your ability to feel safe in your own skin.

Many people assume break ups must be ugly, destructive, and wounding, but this conversation offers another possibility.
• What if separation could be done with love?
• What if letting go could be an act of compassion?
• What if divorce could become the doorway into your freedom rather than the end of your story?

In this episode I sit down with Joyce Ayers, a Heart Centered Divorce Coach trained in Conscious Uncoupling. Joyce brings the lived experience of ending a thirty year marriage with respect, integrity, and deep compassion. She shares what it meant to close such a significant chapter while still protecting the dignity of herself, her former husband, and her family.

Her story challenges the belief that divorce must always destroy. Instead, it reveals that endings, when done consciously, can actually become a sacred path of healing and self reclamation.

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
• How Conscious Uncoupling changes the way we understand separation?
• Why neutrality and compassion are powerful tools for freedom?
• What it takes to move beyond blame and bitterness?
• How to hold your dignity and worth even when everything feels like it is falling apart?

I share openly about my own struggles with custody and heartbreak, and Joyce offers practical guidance for anyone facing the fear and grief of letting go.

This conversation is not just about breaking up. It is about choosing love when everything falls apart. It is about reclaiming your voice, honoring your worth, and creating a new story rooted in sovereignty and feminine power.
