In this vulnerable episode, I’m sharing the deeper story behind my relationship with food, hunger, self-worth, and what I call the chosen wound.

This is not a conversation about judging celebrities, body size, or anyone’s use of GLP-1 medications or appetite suppressants. It is about the larger cultural pattern of praising people for becoming smaller without always asking whether they are okay—and the ways many of us quietly struggle to nourish ourselves, rest, receive support, or believe we are worthy of care.

For years, I could understand my worth intellectually. I had boundaries. I had standards. I could walk away from situations that did not honor me. But feeding myself consistently felt impossible. As a working single mom navigating postpartum depletion, survival mode, and the emotional weight of feeling unseen, food became much more than food.

In this episode, I share how my parents supported my daughters and me through difficult seasons, how hunger became tangled up with grief and abandonment, why being taken out to dinner felt like being chosen, and the unexpected healing shift that helped nourishment start to feel like love again.

If you have ever known what you “should” do for yourself but felt like your body would not let you do it, this episode is for you. You are not lazy. You are not broken. Sometimes the patterns we judge most harshly are old survival strategies asking to be witnessed with compassion.

Please remember: this episode shares personal experience and spiritual reflection, not medical advice. If you are struggling to eat consistently, experiencing rapid weight changes, dizziness, fainting, hair loss, or distress around food, please reach out to a qualified medical or mental-health professional for support.

In this solo episode of The Risen Collective Podcast, Rebecca shares the story behind her spontaneous, deeply transformational trip to Costa Rica.

What began as a nudge she could not explain became an invitation to slow down, surrender control, and let the experience unfold without an itinerary. Rebecca opens up about traveling alone, using points and miles to say yes to herself, navigating the discomfort of solitude, and following a powerful call back into the ocean through scuba diving.

She also shares the emotional reality of returning to diving as a single mom: the fear, the panic underwater, the moment of choosing trust, and the unexpected peace that came through breath, presence, and connection with the earth. This is a conversation about releasing rage, regulating your nervous system, receiving spiritual guidance, trusting divine timing, and allowing yourself to do the thing that scares you—even when you do not yet know why you are being called there.

If you have been feeling pulled toward a trip, a new experience, rest, healing, or a version of yourself that feels unfamiliar, this episode is your reminder that you do not need the whole plan before you begin.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why Costa Rica kept appearing in Rebecca’s life
• Letting go of the need to plan and control every detail
• Saying yes to a solo trip, even as a busy single mom
• Releasing scarcity and allowing yourself to use the resources you already have
• The anxiety and empowerment of returning to scuba diving
• Using breath, water, and presence to regulate your nervous system
• A spiritual connection to the ocean, the land, and Mother Earth
• Releasing anger, stuck energy, and old survival patterns
• Trusting the universe, your intuition, and the nudges you cannot logically explain
• Why solo travel can be a powerful initiation into self-trust

Today I’m joined by spiritual guide and angelic medium Angela, whose journey back to her authentic voice began with two car accidents that completely stopped her “type A, do it all” life. In this powerful conversation, we talk about how angels and our spiritual team work with us through chaos, trauma, and self‑destructive cycles and how those rock-bottom moments can become the doorway to our deepest healing.

You’ll hear:

• Angela’s story of losing her childlike connection to the angels and entering survival mode
• How two car accidents became catalysts for spiritual awakening and physical healing
• The role of surrender when life feels unfair, scary, or completely out of control
• How to ask your guides for very practical support (like feeling safe in the car)
• The language of signs (butterflies, dandelions, synchronicities) and how to build a playful relationship with your spiritual team
• Simple shifts to bring more joy, presence, and soul into your daily routine (even with kids, divorce, and busyness)

This episode is especially for those walking through divorce, health challenges, or seasons where you feel like a shell of yourself. Our intention is that you leave feeling less alone, more supported, and reminded that your guidance is always available.

This is my third solo episode, and it’s one of the most vulnerable ones I’ve recorded. I’m sharing the story of how I went from being a full‑time single mom with two toddlers, a demanding tech career, and no real breaks… to facing a custody change that meant less time with my girls and the spiritual initiation that came with it.

Inside this episode, we explore:

• My life as a working single mom: daycare drop‑offs, sleepless nights, nonstop hustling, and carrying it all
• The heartbreak of realizing I might have to give up time with the children I’d poured everything into
• The inner scoreboard, resentment, and “this isn’t fair” narrative that surfaced when my sacrifice felt unseen
• How my wounded inner child showed up in this process, and why I turned to boxing and movement to move rage
• What surrender looked like as I began to release the version of motherhood I’d built, while still loving my girls fiercely

This conversation isn’t about legal advice or specific custody details. It’s about the emotional and spiritual reality of losing time with your children and rebuilding an identity beyond “the mom who does it all.” If you’re in that space or supporting someone who is, you’re not alone here.

In this heartfelt interview, Rebecca sits down with Stella, a woman raised by a shamanic, spiritually attuned mother who once booked a spontaneous one-way ticket with her kids to the Amazon. Together, they explore what it actually looks like to grow up inside a soul-led life, navigate divorce across countries, and still arrive at deep gratitude for both parents.

Stella shares:
- What it was like to be four years old in the Amazon and how early travel cracked her world open to magic, diversity, and possibility
- The powerful lesson of respect she learned from a tribe’s treasured, years-old bottle of Fanta
- How watching her mom choose her dreams (and move the family to Argentina) gave her a living blueprint for courage
- What it really felt like to be a child in a long, international, high-conflict divorce and custody situation
- The hardest decision she ever made: choosing to cut contact with her father—and how that paradoxically allowed her to love and learn from him more deeply
- Why speaking badly about the other parent cuts a child at the core, and how kids internalize “50% of me must be bad”
- How children often step into the role of “resolver” and grow up too fast, and what parents need to watch for

They also dive into:
- Seeing healing as something you do for yourself first rather than something you perform “for your kids”
- Why trying to control which patterns your children repeat dilutes your own inner work
- The importance of order in the family system and finding your “rightful place” so you’re supported by your lineage instead of drained by it

At the end, Stella shares how she now supports others through Akashic Records sessions and group Family Constellations, helping people bring order to their family systems and stand firmly in their own lives.

This episode is for you if:
- You’re a divorced or divorcing parent terrified of “ruining” your kids
- You’re a cycle-breaker doing inner work and wondering how it lands in your lineage
- You’re curious about family systems, ancestral healing, and soul-led parenting
- You want to hear a grown child of divorce speak honestly, lovingly, and powerfully about her parents and her own path

Listen in for nuanced, tender medicine on parenting, boundaries, gratitude, and healing the family line, without abandoning yourself.

If parenting (especially single parenting) feels heavy, stressful, and like you’re constantly on autopilot, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

In this solo episode of The Risen Collective Podcast, Rebecca shares how inner child healing completely transformed the way she parents her two daughters and the entire energy of their home. By learning to see and tend to her own inner child, she discovered a simple but powerful shift: parenting from your inner child instead of from your wounds.

You’ll hear Rebecca talk about:
- Why “90s childhood nostalgia” is really about emotional connection, not VHS tapes
- How small childhood moments (like getting lost in a store or being laughed at in class) quietly shape your adult patterns
- What happens when you gaslight your own inner child—and how to stop
- A simple way to go back to past memories and re-parent your younger self
- How healing your inner child automatically makes you a more present, playful parent
- Her favorite “hack” for showing up as a fun, connected mom even when life feels overwhelming

Rebecca also shares the playful practice that changed everything: treating her inner child like a third daughter, and letting “baby Beck” lead the way in play, connection, and joy.

This episode is for you if:
- You’re a single parent or co-parent feeling exhausted and guilty
- You want to break generational patterns without shaming your own parents
- You crave more laughter, silliness, and genuine connection with your kids
- You’re ready to let your inner child be seen, loved, and invited into everyday life

Listen in to learn how inner child work can soften your home, heal your heart, and turn parenting into something nourishing—for you and your children.

Rebecca welcomes visibility mentor and soul-identity guide Kristen Shea for a powerful conversation about healing the fear of being seen after narcissistic dynamics, high‑conflict relationships, and divorce. Kristen shares how leaving a narcissistic dynamic forced her to reset her entire life and face how deeply she’d lost herself in caretaking, people-pleasing, and managing everyone else’s emotions.

Together they unpack how a fear of being seen is actually a fear of being yourself, and how it quietly shapes your parenting, relationships, money, career, and even the way you walk into a playground or a courtroom. They explore narcissistic abuse, codependency, the dopamine hits of “fixing” someone else, and the soul-level choice points where you decide to either repeat the pattern or become who you truly are.

You’ll also hear:

• What “soul-level liberation” and authentic visibility really mean
• Why leaving the relationship is only the beginning of the healing
• How your inner work as a parent directly shifts your children’s patterns
• Why community containers are essential when you’re rewiring identity in the same old environment

This episode is for parents, cycle-breakers, and sensitive souls who know they’re here to change things but feel terrified of being fully seen as who they really are.

If you’ve ever felt like life is happening to you, whether through divorce, co-parenting struggles, toxic relationships, or just constant chaos, this episode will shift everything.

In this solo episode, Rebecca breaks down one of the most powerful (and uncomfortable) truths of personal transformation: everything in your life is reflecting something within you.

This isn’t about blame, it’s about power.

You’ll learn how to:

• Shift out of victim mode and reclaim your sovereignty
• Recognize emotional triggers as mirrors for healing
• Stop repeating painful patterns in relationships and co-parenting
• Navigate divorce and custody battles without losing yourself
• Turn anger, fear, and scarcity into clarity and alignment
• Start consciously co-creating your reality

Rebecca shares real-life examples from divorce, motherhood, work, and relationships to show how this concept actually plays out—and how you can start applying it immediately.

This episode is for anyone ready to stop feeling powerless and start becoming the creator of their life.
