Oftentimes, stepping into your true self can come with a side of guilt. If you’ve ever felt like a terrible person for saying no, setting boundaries, or simply choosing yourself over others' expectations—this episode is for you.

We’re exploring where this guilt comes from, why it’s actually a sign of growth, and how to move through it without self-abandoning.

We’re programmed to believe that we need a clear, cohesive identity—something polished, packaged, and easy to define. But this is far from the truth.

In this episode, we explore why following your curiosities, even when they seem scattered or unconventional, leads to more fulfillment than any carefully curated identity ever could.

Expect reflections on intuition, the magic of detours, and why you don’t need to “figure yourself out” to create a life that feels deeply aligned.

This is for those who've found themselves constantly placing others above them—in friendships, romantic relationships, or business. In this episode, I share my personal journey of letting go of people-pleasing patterns and learning to honour my true self, and my energy.

From unsustainable friendships to imbalanced romantic dynamics and boundary-less business decisions, I share how I met my shadows and cleaned up my side of the street, liberating myself to intentionally choose differently, even when fear was present. And how I am 𝑐𝘰𝑛𝘵𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 to work on this.

Tune in to explore how honouring yourself can transform not only your relationships but 𝑦𝘰𝑢𝑟 𝑒𝑛𝘵𝑖𝑟𝑒 𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑔𝑒𝘵𝑖𝑐 𝑠𝑖𝑔𝑛𝑎𝘵𝑢𝑟𝑒 (which, yes, connects to manifestation, too).

Today we’re exploring the intersection of Western therapy, Eastern wisdom, and spirituality in mental health. 

From trauma-informed care to nervous system regulation, Connor shares his journey from traditional clinical psychology to a more integrative, root-cause approach. 

We discuss the power of breathwork, movement, and sound in healing, the impact of generational trauma, and why expanding consciousness is often more powerful than simply trying to "fix" a problem.

If you've ever found yourself comparing yourself to others, wondering how you've done so much inner work and yet feel so "behind," and/or questioning what you have to show for all the growth you've moved through, this episode is for you. My intention is not to gloss over your very human feelings, but rather to speak directly to the human of you, to resurrect your faith, and to remind you of some Universal Laws.

I'm sharing with you today an in-real-time "slip up" with the intention being to remind us all that we're not alone, and that we don't need to beat ourselves up when we notice we've chosen taken a less than ideal action. Further, we talk about the benefits of "falling off track" and the place "slip ups" have in our journeys.

The healthy manifestation of your yin (feminine) energy works in harmony with the healthy manifestation of your yang (masculine) energy.

This episode talks about orchestrating that dance.
