Today, I sit down with my dear friend and astrologer Monica Lorraine to explore the deeper wisdom within your astrology chart. You're so much more than your sun sign. Your birth chart is a map of your soul that reveals who you are and why you're here.

Monica shares how understanding your chart can help you grow emotionally and spiritually, navigate relationship patterns, and uncover your true purpose. She explains what a birth chart is, how planetary movements influence your life, and how to use astrology as a practical tool for self-awareness.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• What your birth chart actually is and why it matters

• How to move beyond your sun sign and explore your full astrological blueprint

• Understanding emotional patterns, triggers, and personal timing

• How astrology can strengthen your relationships and communication

• Using your chart to identify and embody your purpose

I'm joined today by the mystical and deeply inspiring Alana Fairchild, an internationally known spiritual teacher, author, and creator of more than 70 beloved Oracle decks. Together, we explore how to navigate seasons of transformation, embody the divine feminine, and trust the mysterious timing of our own blooming.

Alana shares profound wisdom on eclipse energy as a spiritual reset, helping us understand why moments of uncertainty, exhaustion, or grief often arrive before major breakthroughs. We also dive into what it means to awaken the divine feminine within, how to listen to your intuition, and why learning to trust life's rhythm is the key to inner peace.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• How to work with eclipse energy as a spiritual "reboot"

• The healing power of grief and surrender

• What divine feminine energy really means (and how to embody it)

• The role of Oracle cards as a bridge to your intuition and inner guidance

This is a conversation about trusting your unfolding, honoring your rhythm, and remembering who you truly are.

Today, I'm diving into the powerful practice of cord cutting - a simple but transformative way to release old ties and reclaim your own energy.

We create energetic cords with everyone we interact with, from loved ones to strangers. These connections can weigh us down with resentment, heartbreak, and even other people's emotions. Cord cutting isn't about ending relationships. It's about keeping your energy field clean, clear, and truly your own.

In this episode, I share:

• What energetic cords are and how they affect us

• Why cutting cords doesn't mean cutting people out of your life

• Simple, practical ways to cut cords through visualization and intention

• How cord cutting frees us from resentment, trauma, and unhealthy dynamics

This isn't just about feeling lighter. It's about stepping into your own power, creating space for peace, and opening the door to healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Yes, you read that right. In this episode, I share a very real and very unexpected story about what happened when I accidentally swallowed a dental tool, and how I used the Adult Chair model to navigate nine days of fear, anxiety, and uncertainty.

What could have been a terrifying and overwhelming experience became a powerful opportunity for me to practice exactly what I teach: grounding, regulating my nervous system, and staying connected to myself no matter what was happening around me.

In this episode, I open up about:

• How I calmed myself using fact and truth, grounding, and slow breathing

• The importance of asking "Why is this happening for me?" instead of "Why is this happening to me?"

• The parts work and inner healing that surfaced through this experience

• How feelings of anger, fear, and even betrayal led me to uncover old root beliefs

This story isn't just about an unusual accident. It's about how we can move from fear to empowerment, from victim to adult, and from disconnection back to our true selves.

Have you ever asked yourself, "What am I really here to do?" If you feel stuck, unfulfilled, or unsure about your purpose, you are not alone. I hear this question all the time, and I've been there myself.

In this episode, I'll walk you through:

• How to recognize the clues in your own life story that point toward your purpose

• Why following the "breadcrumbs" of curiosity can open new doors

Not every relationship is meant to last forever. Friendships, partnerships, even family or work connections can shift. Sometimes the healthiest choice is to let them go. But how do you do that with compassion, clarity, and grace?

In this episode, I'm sharing how to recognize when a relationship has run its course, what it means from a soul-growth perspective, and how to navigate endings without blame, shame, or judgment. You'll also learn how to move forward with self-compassion and confidence, even when grief arises.

In this episode, I cover:

• How to tell when a relationship is no longer aligned

• The difference between ego reactions and soul growth

• Steps for ending relationships with compassion and truth

• Why grief is natural, and how to allow it to move through you

When our kids leave the nest, we're left with a house that feels quieter, emptier, and sometimes unbearably still. This transition can stir up grief, loss, and confusion about who we are without the daily role of being "mom" or "dad" at the center of our lives.

In this episode, I'm talking about the very real experience of empty nest syndrome and how to navigate it with compassion and consciousness. No one prepares us for this season of life, but it can also be an opportunity to reconnect with ourselves, process our emotions, and step into a new chapter with purpose.

In this episode, I cover:

• Why grief is a natural and necessary part of the empty nest transition

• How to process and metabolize your emotions instead of avoiding them

• The importance of letting go of control and trusting your kids' journeys

• Ways to validate yourself as a parent and give yourself grace

• How to begin exploring your "Act Two" and discover new purpose in this season of life
