As we approach the Summer Solstice—the longest day and shortest night of the year—this episode explores how to tap into the profound wisdom of this sacred time for both your personal growth and client work. The solstice isn't just an astronomical event; it's a powerful invitation to step into your full radiance and help others do the same.

This episode dives deep into what it truly means to shine without apology. We'll explore the symbolic meaning of the solstice as a time when the sun reaches its peak power, and how this mirrors our own journey toward full visibility and authentic self-expression. You'll discover why so many of us retreat into our metaphorical caves when life gets challenging, and more importantly, how to emerge again.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The deeper spiritual and emotional significance of the Summer Solstice and how to work with its energy

• The transformative Shinto myth of Amaterasu, the sun goddess who hid her light—and what it teaches us about reclaiming our radiance

• Practical ways to help clients reconnect with their inner light and overcome fears of being fully seen

• A powerful journaling process to identify where you're dimming your own brilliance

Whether you're a coach looking to deepen your seasonal practice or someone ready to step more fully into your own light, this episode offers both ancient wisdom and practical tools for transformation. Get ready to explore what happens when we stop hiding our gifts and start shining as brightly as the summer sun itself.
