Hey Soothers! This is audio from my group call today inside the Imperfect Artist's Way. It was a message about capability, power, compassion, struggles with shame and the highly sensitive person's nervous system. Something in me told me more folks needed to hear it, so I share this audio with you today. It includes a Tarot reading, a bit of a lecture, a nervous system exercise, journaling and a meditation. 

Hey Soothers! Glad to be here. I've got as an episode for you today, more of a casual voice note, walking through the woods, as I share what's been going on behind the scenes in my life lately.

I'm talking about the (sometimes painful) process of growing into a new voice and stepping into a bigger version of myself, and all the discomfort and doubt that brings up. I get into how my sense of identity is shifting (is it ever not?? sheesh), how I'm navigating a season that feels really fallow and in-between, and how spiritual loneliness and frustration with others not voicing their spiritual beliefs publicly is something I'm sitting with lately too.

If you're in a liminal season yourself, where things feel slow, uncertain, or like you're not quite who you used to be but not yet who you're becoming, I hope this episode feels like a warm cup of tea and a reminder that you're not alone.

Hey, Soothers! Here’s my Tarot reading for the month of April 2025, for all. 

Feels like an understatement to say that growth isn’t always easy—it expands us, stretches us, and sometimes contracts us before we bloom again. 

But this month's Tarot reading for April wants us to remember this: nature moves in rhythms—trees shed their leaves before budding anew, the ocean tides pull back before surging forward, and the moon wanes before it waxes. 

Just like the natural world, we, too, grow in cycles of expansion and contraction. There are seasons of stretching beyond our comfort zones and seasons of retreat, rest, and integration. Trust that both are necessary.

This collective reading reminds us to embrace the sweetness of the present moment, trust that our spirit guides are always near, and move at the pace our soul needs while we go through whatever cycle is occuring. 

There’s no rush. Let life unfold in divine timing. Center yourself as the expansion or contraction (or both!) occur.

Hey, Soothers! Here’s my Tarot reading for the month of March, for all readers. 

The cards had a very clear message for the month ahead: You are not alone, and your voice carries more weight than you realize. 

Spirit, ancestors, your higher self, whoever, are surrounding you, ready to assist—but they need you to ask. At the same time, this is not a moment to stay silent or shrink back. Your words, ideas, and truth matter. 

Whether it’s speaking up for yourself, sharing your wisdom, or calling in the support you need, March is a time to embrace both the power of your voice and the deep well of guidance available to you.

Watch the video or listen to the audio for guidance, assignments and ideas on how to do this. 

Happy March!

Hey Soothers! I'm putting up a replay of my recent webinar, 7 ways to navigate perimenopause as a highly sensitive person.

Are you struggling with the fatigue, hot flashes, anger and irritability and other symptoms of perimenopause, as a highly sensitive person? Then this webinar is for you. We'll discuss 7 strategies the HSP can use to best navigate the ritual fires of perimenopause.

And my brand-new course, The Perimenopause Reset, is now open!

The Perimenopause Reset is an 8-week journey designed for sensitive women like you.

You’ll learn how to:

• Work with your body instead of fighting against it.
• Use simple, proven techniques to calm your racing mind and finally sleep through the night.
• Balance your hormones naturally with strategies rooted in ancient wisdom and backed by science.

This isn’t about pushing through or pretending everything’s fine.

It’s about embracing your sensitivity as your superpower and using it to thrive during this transition.

Imagine waking up refreshed, staying calm even on chaotic days, and having the energy to be there for your loved ones and the change you'd like to make in society.

It’s time to take control.

Click here to see how The Perimenopause Reset can help you feel like yourself again.

The course is on earlybird pricing of $297 (payment plans available) until Saturday at midnight.

Hey Soothers. I hope you are well. I am returning from sabbatical with more urgency than I had imagined, given that Trump has won a second term and we are entering scary, chaotic and even stranger times, politically, societally, and spiritually. I asked Tarot what is the guidance podcast listeners most need to hear now, in the wake of the election results, and I received card #1 of the Major Arcana of Tarot: The Magician. Tune in to receive some short guidance around the magic and the medicine of this card. Don't know or care about Tarot? Still check in; I think you'll find some motivation in this episodes.

I'll be back soon-ish with more — life updates from my sabbatical, wedding, and new offers.

Say that five times fast! That's right, me and the Soother (and Instagram, and most of my work) are taking three months from August - early November to have a break. Listen in for what prompted me to do this, how I'm feeling about it, and what I hope to do and learn!

Hey Soothers! A while back I had this idea to, every once in a while, interview intuitives and healers on their health and self-care routines. I don't know about you, but I'm the kind of person who could read an entire magazine based on people's morning routines alone, so I thought it would be fun to do this for us on this podcast, too. Energy and self-care and health routines are also just extra important to the intuitive empath, to help ground and settle us. And the first person I thought of was my dear friend and colleague, energy healer Missy Toy Ozeas! In this episode Missy and I go into extremely granular detail on our morning routines, our diets, self-care routines, skin care routines, and more! Enjoy!

Missy and I have also launched the Empath Visibility Accelerator (EVA)! This is our 12-week program for big-hearted HSPs and empaths who want to be more visible in their work in the world, especially if you have spiritual and intuitive gifts but are a little scared to talk more publicly about them. We get it. In the 12 weeks we'll teach you the exact tactics we used to go from very socially anxious, extremely shy women who hid behind corporate careers working for others, to visible spiritual workers showing up bravely in public. EVA starts July 10th, see you in there!

Hey Soothers! A while back I asked for anon listener Qs that I could delve into in my podcast, and y'all delivered! I think I might make this a two-parter because I got a lot of great questions - thank you very much. In today's episode I answer Qs on the following:

• How I'm currently feeling about life coaching
• How I stay so productive
• How you can stay spiritual when you realize you also crave the male gaze/feeling beautiful/you're worried your vain
• Resources and practices for perimenopause
• Why I chose not to pursue medication or a diagnosis for ADHD

I'll answer the rest I got in a future episode, too!
