The Soul Aligned Podcast | Human Design & Energetics for Spiritual Entrepreneurs

What happens when your identity is tied to doing? Have you ever felt so tied to what you do, to the roles you play that it feels impossible to separate it from who you are? It can feel terrifying to walk away from something that you've placed so much or your value in. Especially if it's a job, you worked hard to get in the first place. That's what happened to our guest today. Paula Faris had worked hard to climb the ladder going from intern all the way to anchoring Good Morning America. Even though she had accomplished so many of her dreams, she felt an unsettledness in her spirit and it took a whole string of unfortunate events for her to have 'the come to Jesus moment' she needed to take a step back. And when she got honest with herself, she realized that one of the biggest fears she would ever conquer would be to leave what she had worked so hard to achieve.

Is the fear of the future holding you captive, keeping you paralyzed from taking action on the very dreams that once propelled you forward? It's common to be asking yourself where you should be going from here. So much has changed in the world, and life is no longer what it once was pre-COVID. Are you wondering if your dreams are still valid? In this episode, I'm sharing with you how fear tends to hold us back, and how you can position yourself to really get the answer you need to move forward with or without your dreams.

Now more than ever we're completely obsessed with our bodies, and the food that we're eating. The truth is that a majority of people would say they don't like the way they look. I know I've said that about myself many times throughout my life. But what might surprise you to learn is that there's a highly idealized view of health and body type and that it's an expensive classist system that only the privileged have access to. During this episode, I'm chatting with Dr. Jillian Murphy about what social privilege has to do with our health, and how we can start to make peace with our bodies.

Do you ever feel like you're being defined by the roles you play in life? In our search for our identity, it is easy to get caught up in trying to become someone we're not. We originally aired this episode in 2018 but decided to give it some new life and share it with you again. Join me and Kathleen Van Engen (founder of Tattered Tiara's) as we talk about the struggles we face as women to be uniquely who we've been created to be. In this candid conversation, Kathleen shares her battle with mental illness following the birth of her second son and how that was the catalyst for her becoming an advocate for women suffering from mental health issues. We also talk about the challenge women face in leadership and trap that we can easily fall into when we look for our identity in what we do instead of who we are.

Our most innovative ideas are often born in times of adversity. During seasons in life when we feel that everything is chaotic and out of control. It's only when we've come to the end of ourselves that we're able to let go and surrender to the process.

This year has been fraught with uncertainty and chaos. Courage finds you when you're in the depths on your worst day. In November 2017 we released EP 017 Courage Found Me With Tania Kolesnik. We've decided that the message is timely for today and we wanted to re-release the episode in light of our current circumstances. This is when we need courage most.

It's time that we take a stand to amplify the voices of WOC. This week on the podcast we are sharing with you amazing women for you to follow and learn from.

Today on the podcast we're talking about love, being known, and the yearning we have to be intimate with someone. In a culture of instant gratification, sex is seen as a way for our personal desires to be fulfilled. But what if we start to look at relationships and physical intimacy in a new way. I'm joined by educator, podcaster, and founder of The Refined Woman, Kat Harris and we're talking all about sex.

In full disclosure this is a conversation between two single women sharing their experience and viewpoints. We're not experts, just real people sharing our thoughts on sex before marriage, abstinence, what the bible says about sex, and some of the damage that has been done through the purity culture. Whether you are single or married, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.

Kat Harris is an online educator, speaker, author, and photographer. Her vision is to equip and empower women with practical tools to walk in their worth and navigate their lives grounded in freedom, vision, and wholeness.

Do you ever feel like you're too much? You might be surprised to hear that feeling like you're 'too much' is rooted in 'not enough-ness'.

David Trotter is the host of Inspiration Rising, a podcast dedicated to inspiring women (and the men who support them) to rise up in life, love, and leadership. For over 25 years, he's helped people get unstuck, clarify their goals, and take their lives to the next level through his leadership, speaking, books, and filmmaking.
