In this episode of Wild & Waking, I sit down with productivity coach and creator of the Cosmic Productivity Method, Chelsey Newmyer, for a conversation about what it really means to build routines that support your real life. Together, we explore the idea that productivity is personal—and why so many traditional productivity and time management systems fall short when they ignore our energy, responsibilities, and season of life. If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the “right” things but still felt burned out or behind, this conversation offers a refreshing and deeply practical perspective.

Chelsey shares how she began integrating astrology and Human Design into her approach to productivity after realizing that one-size-fits-all advice didn’t reflect the realities of everyday life. Instead of forcing rigid routines or chasing hustle culture expectations, she helps clients design their days around their unique energy patterns, goals, and responsibilities. We talk about how understanding your sun, moon, and rising signs—along with your Human Design type—can provide powerful insight into when you work best, how you recharge, and how to create sustainable momentum without constant pressure.

Ultimately, this conversation is an invitation to let go of hustle without losing momentum. It’s about honoring your energy, embracing experimentation, and designing routines and rhythms that feel supportive rather than stressful. Whether you’re new to astrology and Human Design or simply searching for a more sustainable approach to productivity, this episode will help you rethink how you structure your day—and remind you that progress doesn’t have to come at the cost of your peace.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why traditional productivity and time management strategies often don’t translate to real life — especially for busy women balancing work, family, and changing responsibilities
• How Chelsey’s experience with rigid routines led her to realize that productivity is personal, not one-size-fits-all
• A clear and refreshing definition of productivity: working on the right thing at the right time to help you reach your goals
• How astrology and Human Design can offer insight into your natural energy patterns and help you make more aligned decisions about your daily routines
• The difference between hustle culture productivity and building sustainable productivity habits that support your real capacity
• Why flexibility is often more effective than perfection when creating routines, managing time, and staying consistent
• Practical ways to design personalized routines that adapt to your season of life, responsibilities, and energy levels
• Chelsey’s simple Good, Better, Best routine framework for maintaining structure while allowing room for unpredictability
• How understanding your energy rhythms can help prevent burnout and support more consistent progress toward your goals

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of Wild & Waking, I sit down with Beatriz Victoria Albina, NP, MPH, SEP—UCSF-trained Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Master Certified Life Coach, and author of the groundbreaking book End Emotional Outsourcing: How to Overcome Your Codependent, Perfectionist, People-Pleasing Habits and Reclaim Your Life. Together, we explore the deeper roots of people-pleasing, perfectionism, anxiety, and over-responsibility—not as personality flaws, but as intelligent survival strategies shaped by culture, relationships, and nervous system conditioning. This conversation is an invitation to move beyond surface-level self-help and into a more sophisticated understanding of healing, self-trust, and relational change.

Throughout our discussion, Béa introduces the concept of emotional outsourcing, a term she coined to describe the habit of looking outside ourselves for validation, safety, and worth. We unpack how this pattern shows up in everyday life—saying yes when we mean no, over-functioning in relationships, and carrying the emotional weight of everyone around us—while quietly losing connection to our own needs and desires. Drawing from somatic psychology, polyvagal theory, and trauma-informed care, Béa explains why knowing what to do isn’t always enough to change behavior, and how building nervous system capacity is essential for setting boundaries, cultivating resilience, and developing lasting self-trust.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, struggling with boundaries, recovering from people-pleasing, or seeking a deeper relationship with yourself and others, this episode offers a rich and intellectually grounded perspective on healing. Béa’s work bridges science, psychology, feminism, and somatic practice to help people stop living for everyone else and finally come home to themselves. If you’re ready to move beyond survival mode and into a life rooted in self-trust, relational health, and meaningful connection, this conversation will expand the way you think about healing and the role it plays in shaping the world around us.

In this episode, we explore:

• What emotional outsourcing is and why people-pleasing, perfectionism, and codependency are not personality flaws—but learned survival strategies shaped by culture, relationships, and nervous system conditioning
• Why so many high-capacity women struggle with boundaries, burnout, anxiety, and over-responsibility, even when they know what they need to do
• The hidden cost of living for everyone else—and how self-abandonment quietly erodes confidence, clarity, and connection to your own needs and desires
• Why knowing better isn’t enough to change behavior—and how building emotional capacity in the body is the key to lasting change
• The difference between codependence, hyper-independence, and healthy interdependence in relationships, leadership, parenting, and community life
• Why emotional healing is not just personal work—but the foundation for stronger families, healthier workplaces, and more connected communities
• Why healing your nervous system makes you less reactive, less easily manipulated by fear or approval, and more capable of grounded leadership and clear decision-making
• How personal healing contributes to collective care and community resilience, allowing us to build relationships and systems rooted in trust, integrity, and compassion
• Practical insights for breaking free from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional over-functioning so you can live, lead, and love from a place of alignment and self-trust

In this special reverse interview episode, the tables turn as Emily Reuschel, host of the Wild & Waking podcast, sits in the guest seat for a powerful conversation with Master Life Coach and Internal Family Systems practitioner, Andrea Tessier. Together, they explore the deeper forces shaping women’s leadership today; from the rise of self-trust and inner authority to the collective awakening many women are experiencing in a rapidly changing world.

This episode explores what it means to live and lead during a time of collective awakening, when many women are questioning the systems, expectations, and narratives they were raised within. Emily and Andrea reflect on the powerful moment we are living through, and how self-trust, inner authority, and women stepping into leadership may be some of the most important forces shaping what comes next.

If you’ve ever felt the tension between who you were taught to be and who you’re becoming, this conversation offers both validation and perspective. It’s an honest, thoughtful exploration of women’s leadership, personal awakening, sacred rage, and the courage required to trust yourself in a changing world.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why so many brilliant, capable women still struggle with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and second-guessing themselves—even when they are deeply qualified and impact-driven.
• The deeper roots of good girl conditioning, people-pleasing, and perfectionism, and how cultural expectations shape the way women disconnect from their own intuition and inner authority.
• What self-trust really means—and why it is one of the most important leadership skills women can cultivate in times of uncertainty and change.
• The role of Internal Family Systems (IFS), parts work, and emotional awareness in understanding the protective patterns that influence how we lead, love, and make decisions.
• Emily’s personal journey through burnout, identity shifts, and deep personal transformation, and how those experiences shaped the creation of the Wild & Waking framework.
• How sacred rage can act as a powerful signal that something deeper is asking to be seen, challenged, or transformed.
• Why learning to feel, process, and channel difficult emotions can become a catalyst for personal growth, self-leadership, and authentic expression.
• The concept of a collective awakening, and why so many women are currently questioning the systems, narratives, and expectations they were raised within.
• How women can move from self-doubt to inner authority, using their lived experiences as fuel for meaningful leadership and impact.
• What it means to lead during a time of collective change, and how women coming home to themselves may be one of the most powerful forces shaping the future of our communities and culture.

In this solo episode of Wild & Waking, Emily explores the many conversations happening right now around the divine feminine, and why so many of them feel incomplete. From “trad wife” narratives circulating in rural and online spaces to aestheticized versions of feminine energy centered on softness and passivity, the concept of the feminine has often been reduced to a narrow role. But what if the divine feminine is something much bigger, wilder, and more powerful than that?

At the heart of this conversation is a powerful idea: the divine feminine is a paradox. It is both softness and fire. It is joy and rage. It is floral dresses and burning down the systems that were never designed for women to thrive. Emily shares a series of reflections on what reclaiming feminine power can look like in everyday life, from honoring the cycles of the body and the seasons to trusting your intuition, raising daughters who know their worth, and building community with other women.

Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to move beyond surface-level ideas of feminine energy and step into something deeper: feminine sovereignty. Reclaiming the divine feminine isn’t about performing an aesthetic or fitting into a prescribed role; it’s about remembering who you are beneath conditioning and expectations. It’s about reconnecting to intuition, reclaiming your voice, and participating in the ripple effect of women coming home to their power.

If you’ve been questioning traditional narratives around femininity, exploring spiritual growth, or feeling the pull toward deeper self-trust, feminine leadership, and personal sovereignty, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this episode, I explore:

1. The many narratives surrounding the divine feminine today—from “trad wife” culture to modern spiritual interpretations of feminine energy—and why so many of them miss the deeper truth of feminine power.
2. Why the divine feminine is a paradox—holding both softness and strength, beauty and rage, nurturing and revolutionary change.
3. How reclaiming feminine sovereignty means trusting your intuition, honoring the cycles of your body and the seasons, and stepping away from systems that disconnect women from their power.
4. The role of sisterhood, community, and collective healing in helping women reconnect with their inner authority and spiritual wisdom.
5. What it means to raise the next generation—especially daughters—to trust their inner voice, question limiting beliefs, and live in alignment with their authentic selves.
6. How reclaiming the wild feminine can look like joy, creativity, ritual, and connection to nature while also challenging the systems that were never designed for women to thrive.
7. Why the journey of self-trust, feminine leadership, and personal sovereignty is one of the most powerful ways women can create ripple effects in their families, communities, and the world.

In this episode of Wild & Waking, Emily sits down with Hope Pedraza, a functional wellness practitioner who works at the intersection of science, energetics, and embodied healing. Together, they explore why burnout isn’t a personal failure or a productivity problem, it’s a signal that old paradigms of success, worth, and wellness are no longer sustainable. This conversation is a powerful invitation to reimagine healing through the lens of worthiness, nervous system regulation, and inner authority.

Hope shares her integrative approach to functional wellness, weaving together mineral balancing, nervous system healing, Human Design, subconscious work, and frequency medicine to help high-achieving women restore energy and vitality. Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, she explains how burnout often stems from deeper emotional and energetic roots, especially the worthiness wound that conditions women to tie their value to productivity, overgiving, and constant doing.

This conversation is for the woman who feels exhausted but deeply self-aware, who knows something is off even when labs look “normal,” and who is ready to listen to her body as the final authority. If you’re navigating burnout, identity shifts, or the next evolution of your leadership, this episode offers a grounded yet expansive look at what functional wellness can become when science, energetics, and self-trust meet.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why burnout isn’t a hormone problem, productivity issue, or personal failure — but a signal that old paradigms of success and self-worth are no longer sustainable
• How tying your worth to productivity impacts the nervous system, hormones, energy levels, and long-term health
• The role of the nervous system in burnout, chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and feeling “off” even when labs look normal
• Why cultivating safety around rest is foundational to healing — and why rest often doesn’t feel safe for driven women
• Why minerals are a foundational missing link in both conventional and holistic approaches to burnout recovery
• The connection between emotional stress, subconscious patterns, and physical symptoms in the body
• How Human Design helps women understand their natural energy patterns, boundaries, and inner authority
• Why living out of alignment with your design contributes to burnout, depletion, and nervous system dysregulation
• How subconscious reprogramming, hypnotherapy, EFT, and parts work support nervous system healing
• Why intellectualizing healing often isn’t enough — and what it takes to create real integration
• What functional wellness looks like when science, energetics, and embodiment are woven together
• Why healing often requires an identity shift — and the grief that can come with releasing who you used to be
• How listening to the body as the final authority changes the way we approach health, leadership, and life

This episode marks the powerful finale of the four-part Wild & Waking Journey series — and we are closing with the phase that changes everything: The Rise

Throughout this identity evolution series, we’ve walked through The Unraveling, The Remembering, and The Reclamation; the sacred undoing, the return to intuition, the courageous choosing. Now, in this final installment, Emily brings language to what happens next. The Rise is not a finish line or a glow-up. It’s embodied leadership. It’s self-trust in action. It’s the moment your inner transformation begins to ripple outward into your voice, your relationships, your work, your motherhood, your community, and your legacy.

If you’ve been navigating identity deconstruction, spiritual awakening, authentic self-expression, or stepping into greater visibility without self-abandonment, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. The Wild & Waking Framework is cyclical, not linear. You may be rising in one area while unraveling in another, and that is not failure. That is growth.

This is the inhale and exhale of a woman who knows who she is and is no longer afraid to let the world feel it.

In this episode, I explore:

• What The Rise really means inside the Wild & Waking Framework — embodied leadership, authentic self-expression, and identity evolution in action
• How personal transformation becomes collective impact — and why women who have done deep identity work are being called forward right now
• The difference between performative visibility and grounded, aligned visibility rooted in self-trust
• How to expand your voice, influence, and leadership without self-abandonment, people-pleasing, or chasing external validation
• Channeling anger, fire, and rage into intentional, focused change rather than chaos — leadership through regulated embodiment
• How identity deconstruction, spiritual awakening, and self-trust create ripple effects in your family, business, rural community, and lineage
• The role of women in social change, cultural shifts, and rebuilding systems from the inside out
• Expanding visibility while building the nervous system capacity to be seen
• Practical reflection questions to help you identify where life is asking you to rise right now

In this episode of Wild & Waking, Emily sits down with business coach Sara Dann for a bold, honest conversation about what happens when the “good girl” way of succeeding stops working. Inspired by Sara’s viral reflection on why good girl behavior won’t be rewarded in 2026, this conversation explores the deep unraveling many women experience when overfunctioning, overachieving, and self-abandonment no longer deliver fulfillment — even when the business looks successful on paper.

Together, Emily and Sara unpack what Sara calls the “good girl conditioning” so many women have been socialized into: proving worth through productivity, staying humble, avoiding disruption, prioritizing likability, and following rules that once felt safe but now feel suffocating. They explore the moment women hit an internal wall — when resentment creeps in, desire goes quiet, and success starts to feel heavy instead of expansive — and why this isn’t a failure, but an invitation into reinvention.

Sara shares her own story of building a multi-million-dollar business while deeply disconnected from herself, and the long, messy process of reclaiming desire, embodiment, and personal power. This conversation moves beyond strategy into identity; naming the grief that comes with outgrowing former versions of yourself, the fear of letting go of what “worked,” and the courage it takes to stop performing past identities in order to be fully seen.

This episode is for the woman who knows she’s outgrown the way she’s been doing life or business, who feels the quiet (or loud) pull toward something more aligned, and who is ready to lead from desire instead of obligation. It’s a reminder that reinvention isn’t reckless — it’s a reclamation. And that the collapse of good girl conditioning is often the beginning of becoming a powerful, fully expressed woman.

In this episode, we explore:

• What “good girl conditioning” looks like in practice
• Why resentment, boredom, and resistance are often early signals that a woman has outgrown her current identity or way of working
• The moment success stops feeling fulfilling — and how that internal discomfort is often the beginning of reinvention, not a sign something has gone wrong
• Why so many women struggle to answer the question “What do I actually want?” and how conditioning, fear, and responsibility distort desire
• The role of desire as a compass — not as something reckless or impractical, but as an essential guide for aligned leadership and decision-making
• The difference between intellectual readiness and embodied readiness when it comes to reinvention and visibility
• The grief and uncertainty that can accompany letting go of former identities, business models, or versions of yourself that once worked
• How women give their power away by tying their success to strategies, platforms, or roles instead of recognizing themselves as the source
• What reinvention can look like for women living in small towns or tight-knit communities where expectations and roles feel especially defined
• How moving from obligation to obsession can radically change the way women experience their work, bodies, and lives

The Wild & Waking Journey: Reclamation is Part 3 of a four-part solo series exploring the Wild & Waking Framework—a cyclical, soul-deep map for identity evolution, embodied leadership, and aligned living. In this episode, Emily guides the listener into The Reclamation, the phase where everything begins to click. After Unraveling what no longer fits and Remembering your deeper truth, Reclamation is where you consciously choose to live differently, and begin embodying who you are becoming in real time.

The Reclamation is the sacred middle. It is the integration phase where clarity turns into courage and insight becomes action. Like earth, this stage is about rooting and rising. What once felt abstract now becomes tangible: boundaries spoken aloud, standards set, decisions made from self-trust rather than urgency or survival. Emily explores how this phase shows up across identity, work, relationships, spirituality, values, and leadership, and why Reclamation isn’t about throwing everything out, but intentionally choosing what truly fits and letting the rest fall away.

In this episode, Emily shares real-life examples of Reclamation in motion, from redefining success and worth, to releasing people-pleasing, to setting unapologetic standards around time, energy, and capacity. She unpacks why integration has a “lag period,” why embodiment takes practice, and how identity is one reclaimed, aligned choice at a time. This phase is not loud or flashy; it’s subtle, steady, and often uncomfortable, but it’s where self-trust is built and freedom begins to take shape from the inside out.

You’ll also hear how Reclamation invites you to expand your capacity to be seen, heard, and held, especially when your choices disrupt expectations or disappoint others. Emily reflects on the courage it takes to lead from vision rather than validation, to trust yourself before external proof appears, and to stop managing other people’s perceptions at the cost of self-abandonment. This is where identity stops being conceptual and starts becoming embodied.

To close, Emily offers grounding reflection questions to support your own Reclamation—inviting you to name the boundaries that would most protect your energy, the truths that need your voice, and the small aligned experiments that will stretch your capacity. If you’re in the phase of choosing differently, rebuilding your identity, and learning to walk as the woman you’ve remembered, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Part 4 of the series, The Rise, continues next.

In this episode, I explore:

1. What The Reclamation phase of the Wild & Waking Framework really is — the sacred middle where identity integration begins
2. How Reclamation follows Unraveling and Remembering, and why this is the phase where everything finally starts to click
3. Why Reclamation isn’t about burning everything down — but consciously choosing what fits and releasing what doesn’t
4. The role of grief, rage, and nuance in rebuilding identity after deconstruction or awakening
5. Why embodiment takes time — and how integration often has a “lag period” before it feels natural
6. How to stop seeking validation and begin leading from self-trust, even when others don’t understand
7. Taking bold, aligned action from your new identity, not urgency or old survival patterns
8. Why Reclamation is subtle, steady, and often uncomfortable — but deeply liberating
9. The connection between identity, boundaries, nervous system regulation, and burnout
10. How community, mentorship, and shared spaces accelerate the reclamation process
11. Reflection questions to help you identify where you’re ready to choose differently and rise

What if the challenges you face today didn’t begin in this lifetime? What if the patterns, wounds, and fears that keep resurfacing are echoes of your soul’s past? In this fascinating and deeply healing conversation, Emily sits down with Leyla Bavi — also known as Leyla the Healer — a licensed therapist, hypnotherapist, Reiki master, and global intuitive who bridges psychology, spirituality, and ancient energetic modalities. Together, they explore the profound world of Akashic Records, past life regression, ancestral healing, and the collective awakening that’s unfolding across humanity.

Emily and Leyla also dive into the intersections between mental health and energetic healing; how depression, anxiety, and chronic burnout can stem from unresolved karmic and ancestral wounds. They explore the soul-level reasons we choose certain life paths, parents, or challenges, and how understanding these deeper truths can bring liberation, compassion, and wholeness. Leyla shares powerful stories from her practice, including how the Akashic Records can shift timelines, free stuck energy, and even impact future generations.

This conversation goes beyond spirituality as a concept. It’s a grounded, expansive exploration of healing across timelines. Whether you’re curious about past lives, the Akashic Records, energy healing, the collective awakening, or the evolution of the human soul, this episode will expand your understanding of what’s possible when you begin to work with the unseen.

In this episode, we explore:

1. The Akashic Records — what they are, how to access them, and how they hold the energetic blueprint of your soul across past, present, and parallel lifetimes.
2. Past Life Regression Hypnotherapy — how revisiting former lifetimes can uncover the root causes of current fears, relationship dynamics, and recurring patterns.
3. Ancestral Healing & Lineage Work — clearing generational trauma, breaking inherited contracts, and freeing the women who came before us.
4. Reiki Energy Healing as the gateway to deeper spiritual work — moving stuck emotions, regulating the nervous system, and restoring energetic balance.
5. Bridging Psychology & Spirituality — how Leyla integrates her clinical background as a licensed therapist with intuitive, multidimensional healing.
6. The overlap between mental health, trauma, and energetic imprints — and how anxiety, depression, or self-sabotage often have roots beyond this lifetime.
7. The Collective Awakening — why more people than ever are opening to their intuitive gifts, remembering their past lives, and reclaiming their spiritual power.
8. Energy hygiene, grounding, and protection — what it means to practice safe, ethical, and embodied spiritual development.
9. How to integrate spiritual healing into everyday life without bypassing reality, chasing perfection, or replicating hustle culture in your personal growth journey.
10. The importance of self-trust, curiosity, and neutrality in your awakening process—and what it really means to live as an embodied, evolving soul.

The Remembering is the second chapter in a four-part solo series exploring the Wild & Waking Framework — a cyclical, soul-deep map for personal growth, identity evolution, and embodied leadership. Unlike linear self-help models or rigid step-by-step systems, the Wild & Waking journey is a living spiral. It’s a rhythm you move through again and again, learning to recognize where you are right now and honor that place as sacred.

In this episode, Emily dives into The Remembering — the phase defined by the question, “Who was I before the world told me who to be?” This is the water phase of the journey: fluid, deep, intuitive, and quietly powerful. The Remembering is not about becoming someone new; it’s about coming home. Beneath the layers of obligation, conditioning, expectations, and survival strategies, there is a deeper knowing that has always been there — waiting to be heard. This phase invites you to soften, turn inward, and begin listening to the whispers that have been trying to find you all along.

If you’re in a season of rediscovering your desires, reclaiming your intuition, or gently peeling back the layers of who you thought you had to be, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are — and remind you that you were never lost. You were always remembering.

In this episode, I explore:

1. What it means to remember yourself after years of conditioning, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment
2. How identity evolution often begins after burnout, dissatisfaction, or the sense that your life no longer fits
3. Why remembering can bring grief, anger, or rage alongside relief
4. Reclaiming intuition and body awareness as sacred data rather than something to override, fix, or explain away
5. How nervous system regulation, cycle awareness, and somatic curiosity support self-trust and emotional healing
6. Untangling your sense of worth and identity from productivity, roles, motherhood, leadership, and external validation
7. The subtle ways we curate our lives around safety, approval, and survival instead of truth and desire
8. Practical, grounded practices that support remembering, including journaling, walking, reflection, and intuition-led inquiry
9. Why fulfillment, joy, and embodied confidence begin to emerge when you learn to know, love, and trust yourself
