Soul Inspired Gurl

I'm back ....

We’re so often taught that clarity means choosing one thing. One path. One feeling. But what if multiple things can be true at once? What if honoring that is the most truthful thing we can do?

Today’s solo episode is a little more personal, a little more layered — and if I’m honest, it’s been brewing inside me for a while. I want to talk about what it means to hold multiple truths at once — without needing to choose just one, or explain away the rest.

I’m living in that space right now — loving life here in Costa Rica and knowing it’s time to root part of my year somewhere else. Feeling grateful for the health practices that once saved me and realizing they’re no longer what my body needs.

This episode is for anyone standing in that messy, beautiful, expansive place between what was and what’s becoming. Let’s talk about what it means to live truthfully, even when it’s not neat and tidy — especially then.

Takeaways

We’re talking about:
- The paradox of loving where you are… and still feeling the call to go somewhere else
- Why the health routines, relationships, or beliefs that once worked may be keeping you small
- The parts of yourself you haven’t fully mined — and how the world is asking you to show up, open-hearted and true
- What it means to hold yourself with both compassion and accountability — and become the support system you actually need
- How to stop trying to make life neat and tidy, and instead live in the truth of your wholenessIf you’ve been standing in a season of contradiction, expansion, or quiet reckoning — this one’s for you.

What if the very thing you’re craving — peace, clarity, vitality — has been within you all along?

In this powerful solo episode, Laura shares her unexpected and life-changing journey into transformational breathwork — and how it’s become one of the most impactful practices in her life and work.

Laura opens up about the moment breathwork found her in 2021, during a retreat in the mountains of British Columbia, and the surprising ways it cracked her open, softened her edges, and helped her finally loosen the grip of control. What began as a single session turned into a soul-aligned path — one that has transformed her thoughts, body, relationships, and the way she moves through the world.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, hyper-vigilant, stuck in old patterns, or disconnected from your body and truth, this episode will meet you right where you are. Breath by breath.

In this episode, Laura shares: * The story of how breathwork found her — and why she resisted it at first * What actually happens during a transformational breathwork session (including common physical responses and emotional releases) * The lesser-known physiological benefits of breathwork: improved oxygenation, CO₂ tolerance, inflammation reduction, and longevity * How breathwork can help you unwind old beliefs, regulate your nervous system, and connect more deeply with yourself * Why transformational breathwork bypasses the brain and heals from the inside out * The powerful role of rhythm, community, and consistency in sustainable change * What inspired her to create the Breathe Into Being Membership — and how you can join now

Breathwork can help you… * Reduce stress and anxiety * Improve sleep, focus, and emotional resilience * Release stored trauma and energetic blocks * Increase lung capacity and blood oxygen levels * Expand your intuition, vitality, and creative potential * Rewire your nervous system and reconnect to your truth * Cultivate a rhythm of healing that supports your entire life

In this raw and insightful episode, I sit down with the incredible Elisa Kurylowicz, former elite athlete, mindset coach, and host of the Elisa Unfiltered Podcast, to talk about the wound of feminine sisterhood—the ways in which women struggle to build, maintain, and repair deep, meaningful friendships.

We unpack the hidden layers of competition vs. collaboration, the subconscious wounds many women carry from childhood, and how they manifest in adulthood—whether through betrayal, exclusion, or self-sabotage.

Elisa shares her own experiences of deep sisterhood breakups, how they shaped her understanding of self-worth, and how she finally cut the cord on toxic dynamics that no longer served her.

We also dive into:

✔️ The difference between self-awareness and intuitive awareness ✔️ How the need for external validation keeps us in unhealthy patterns ✔️ Why women struggle to say the thing—and how to break that cycle ✔️ The power of holding space vs. fixing others ✔️ The unseen impact of competition and rejection in female friendships ✔️ How to truly rebuild trust with other women and create deep, authentic connections ✔️ Why many women unconsciously keep themselves on the back burner in life and how to step into your own power

If you've ever felt burned, disappointed, or disillusioned by female friendships, this episode is a MUST-listen.

In this special episode of Soul Inspired Girl, Laura sits down with her son, Ben, for an intimate and insightful conversation about carving out an unconventional life path. Recorded in September 2024 and released in March 2025, this episode explores what it means to live authentically, make sovereign choices, and embrace the courage to be different.

Ben, now 22, shares his journey of growing up in a holistic, conscious family, navigating life’s transitions, and learning to trust his own intuition as he strikes out on his own in British Columbia. Together, Laura and Ben reflect on childhood experiences, alternative health approaches, life in Costa Rica, and the ever-evolving quest for purpose and alignment.

What We Cover in This Episode:

✨ Growing up in a holistic home: food, health, and unconventional choices ✨ The power of community and surrounding yourself with aligned people ✨ Trusting your gut and following intuition—even when it’s scary ✨ Ben’s experience of living in Costa Rica and why he ultimately chose to return to BC ✨ How childhood lessons shape our adult lives ✨ The importance of embracing uncertainty and walking your unique path

Key Takeaways: 🔹 Your upbringing shapes you, but your choices define you. 🔹 Feeling "different" can be a challenge, but it’s also a superpower. 🔹 Trusting your intuition is a lifelong practice. 🔹 Community and connection are essential for living a fulfilling life. 🔹 Growth happens when you listen to that inner voice nudging you toward something more.

In this solo episode, Laura explores the transformative power of attitude and how it shapes our identity and perception of life. She discusses the importance of framing our experiences consciously, challenging limiting beliefs, and practicing new narratives to foster personal growth.

Through personal anecdotes and reflective questions, Laura encourages listeners to embrace change, navigate setbacks, and cultivate a mindset that empowers them to see life as a series of opportunities rather than obstacles.

Takeaways

Attitude is a game changer in living a conscious + attuned life. * We create our own stories and can choose which to keep. * Our identity is shaped by our attitudes and beliefs. * Framing experiences in an empowering way can lead to growth. * Life events can be seen as either endings or beginnings. * We often absorb limiting beliefs from our environment. * Challenging our truths can lead to personal growth. * Practicing new narratives can shift our mindset. * Self-discovery is a journey that requires reflection. * Our identity is not fixed; it can be changed at any time.

Listener Reflection Questions

1️⃣ What is a belief you’ve been carrying about yourself (your abilities, relationships, career, money, etc.) that might not actually be true?

- Where did this belief come from?
- Is it based on facts, or is it just an old story you’ve reinforced over time?

2️⃣ Think about a recent challenge or setback—how did you frame it?

Did you see it as a failure, or as redirection?
If you rewrote the story, how could this situation actually be working for you?

3️⃣ What is one small way you can start practicing a shift in attitude today?

Maybe it’s catching negative self-talk.
Maybe it’s reinterpreting a ‘bad’ moment as an opportunity.
Maybe it’s choosing a new way to respond to setbacks.
“If any of these hit home, DM me or tag me and share your insights—I’d love to hear what comes up for you.”

This episode with Gary Waters, High Performance Mindset Coach, is all about getting to the root cause of what's limiting your ability to experience true freedom, joy, love and vitality.

He shares insights into a completely different way of thinking, leading to a life changing shift in perspective. I really appreciated Gary's ability to give tangible action steps to the listener - you and me. You'll love this episode.

Here's a lot of what we talked about ...

Mindset plays a significant role in shaping our experiences and outcomes in life.
Our subconscious mind is influenced by our environment and language, particularly during childhood.
Identifying and challenging limiting beliefs is crucial for personal growth and transformation.
Affirmations alone are not enough to shift deeply ingrained beliefs; addressing the root cause is necessary. Changing perspectives can lead to a new way of seeing oneself and the world, which can lead to behavioral changes and different results.
Rock bottom can be a catalyst for change and a turning point in one's life.
Triggers are opportunities for self-awareness and growth, and they often stem from resistance to certain aspects of life.
Desire can come from a place of lack or dissatisfaction, but shifting to a mindset of abundance and wholeness can change the energy behind desire.
Allowing and surrendering can lead to a sense of freedom and ease in life.
The journey of transformation takes time and commitment, and it often involves ongoing practice and self-discovery.
Morning practices can set the tone for the day and help establish a positive mindset and frequency.
Gary Waters can be found at garywaters.co.uk and on Instagram as @iamgarywaters.
Working with Gary Waters involves a discovery call to determine if there is a fit and to discuss the duration and details of the coaching relationship.
Appreciation and gratitude for the time and presence of others can create a meaningful connection and exchange.

Into my life walks Corrie Bignell, The Unregistered Nurse / Certified Self Sabotage Coach - with a workshop all about self sabotage.

I was a co-facilitator at a retreat where I had the privilege of hearing all Corrie's work and wisdom. Corrie joins me today to talk ALL about the topic of self sabotage. You are going to want to listen to this.

If you asked me two weeks ago if I self sabotage myself I would've said no.

And once I listened to why most of us are unconsciously self sabotaging ourselves, it all made much more sense. And now my answer is, YES ... but all that is changing.

This episode is all about the topic of self sabotage and more importantly, how to STOP sabotaging yourself.

Short Overview:

Corrie's personal history with self sabotage
Becoming a Certified Self Sabotage Coach
Self-sabotage and the influence of programming on our subconscious minds.
How programming from childhood and the media can contribute to self-destructive behaviors.
The need to reprogram the subconscious mind to overcome self-sabotage and achieve personal growth and success.

Main Takeaways:

The subconscious mind can process a vast amount of information and influences our thoughts and behaviors.
Self-sabotage can manifest in various areas of life, such as health, finances, and relationships.
Programming from childhood and media exposure can contribute to self-sabotaging behaviors.
Reprogramming the subconscious mind through techniques like hypnotherapy can help overcome self-sabotage and achieve personal growth. The prefrontal cortex is responsible for impulse control, personality, motivation, and fear. Lifestyle factors such as toxins and negative programming can damage the prefrontal cortex and lead to self-sabotage.
Toxins that damage the prefrontal cortex include coffee, alcohol, big pharma products, nicotine, and sugars. Eliminating or reducing exposure to these toxins can support brain health and reduce self-sabotaging behaviors.
Reprogramming the subconscious mind through hypnotherapy and positive repetition can help change self-sabotaging behaviors and beliefs. Surrounding oneself with positive influences and engaging in empowering activities can also support positive change.
Physical health is essential for overall well-being and empowerment. Taking care of one's physical health can contribute to mental and emotional strength and resilience.
Taking action and making small changes in daily habits and routines can lead to significant positive transformations.
Surrounding oneself with positive and uplifting people can also support personal growth and change.

Hey .... Another solo episode.

I'm full on into Season 3 and in this season I'm mostly recording my own solo episodes; however, I've got a few really amazing guests lined up that you'll hear from soon enough.

Recently I contributed to a women's retreat in Costa Rica and I'm sharing my experience as a collaborator at someone else's retreat. So many lessons + rememberings.

This episode is short + sweet and perfect for the human who learns, reflects and is motivated through other's stories and experiences.

The main topics that come up are: control (ugh ... the micromanaging of all the things), contribution, hidden blessings, female friendships and reciprocity.

I'll leave it at that. If this resonates with you please share it with your inner circle.

This short episode is a solo episode talking about HEALING.

The healing we've done.

The healing we've yet to do.

And the healing that is between where we are and where we want to be.

Eight weeks ago I started to practice again after a four year break. In this time I have known that many of us are struggling in our wholeness.

The stress (in all its forms), unprocessed emotions and trauma have left many humans managing ... versus thriving.

Simply put, I'm sharing my thoughts and views on what's happening in the world right now and how you can move into a greater state of healing ... if you so choose.

In this episode, I share my experience of moving to Costa Rica from Canada. For some this is a much anticipated podcast episode. I talk about the reason why we moved -- including concerns about Canada's "pandemic" response and governmental control. I talk about the trucker / freedom rally and how it influenced our decision. In a way we never saw coming. I cover how and why we chose Costa Rica and the area we are in - including our many challenges along the way. Also, the residency and visa process, access to healthcare, nutritious food and availability of organic and sustainable food. I talk about access to amenitities, beach vs mountain towns, power and internet outages and dealing with the climate of Costa Rica. I share my thoughts on letting go and adjusting expectations, safety and security, language and currency, and the benefits of trading and bartering. I also emphasize the importance of being part of the community and expressing gratitude for the opportunities and abundance in Costa Rica. I also share our future plans and where we are all at currently .... 1.5 years in. Additional Takeaways: * Living in expat areas in Costa Rica provides access to a range of services and amenities, including schools, restaurants, gyms, and holistic services. * Choosing between living in beach towns and mountain towns depends on personal preferences, with beach towns offering a more relaxed lifestyle and mountain towns providing cooler temperatures. * The hot and humid climate in Costa Rica can lead to mold issues, making air conditioning and dehumidification necessary for a comfortable living environment. * Power outages and internet issues are common in Costa Rica, but uninterrupted power supplies and fast internet connections are available. * Adapting to the Costa Rican lifestyle requires letting go of expectations and embracing the slower pace of life and the connection to nature. Pura Vida is aptly named for life in Costa Rica! * Respecting the local community and being mindful of the impact of expat presence on the cost of living and local resources is important. * Language and currency considerations include the prevalence of English-speaking locals and the need for cash transactions. * Trading and bartering are common practices in Costa Rica, allowing for the exchange of goods and services. * Being part of the community and giving back contribute to a more fulfilling expat experience. * Transition and integration take time, and it is important to be patient and open to the changes and growth that come with living in a new country. * Expressing gratitude for the opportunities and abundance in Costa Rica enhances the expat experience. * Future plans in Costa Rica may be uncertain, but being present and following one's heart's calling is essential.

Hey beautiful souls,

This episode is a fascinating discussion with Kendra Toothill -- We talk all about SCARS.

And before you press 'skip' and move on because you can't imagine what scars has to do with the quality of your present day life ... pull a chair up. Turns out that the scars we carry (visible and invisible) hold potent stories and the work that Kendra does helps uncover and heal both the physical and emotional energy within.

Kendra began discovering the potential of scar tissue as an Athletic Therapist working in elite-level sports over ten years ago.

Over her professional career, she has been refining her geeky scar obsession, which has ultimately birthed a holistic healing method that helps people make sense of their multiple health symptoms in an integrative way, using scars as an anchor point into deep physical, emotional and energetic healing.

In this episode we talk about:

The definition of scar and what role they play in the healing process.
How Kendra came to this work and made her way into this niche treatment.
From Athletic Therapist to scar and deep fascial work and working with women who do breast explant surgery.
How scars contribute to various bodily dysfunctions, including digestive and breathing problems, nervous system issues, anxiety, and chronic pain.
Working on scars to assist the body in rewiring more productive nervous system patterns.
The role of emotional and energetic healing in the scar treatment process.
The emotional implications of surgery, injuries and often birthing experiences that are held in the scar tissue of the body.
The dysfunction in surrounding muscles and how the scar attempts to priotize the healing of tissue to provide safety and security.
The opportunity for emotional and physical healing when you address scars in the body.
What PDTR (Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex) treatment is and how Kendra uses it in her treatment.
Kendra's in-person work in Uvita, Costa Rica as well as her online offerings and in-person retreats in Austin, Texas.

Timestamp of today's episode:

00:00 Praises Kendra's impactful work with scars.

04:51 Fascination with scars led to healing practice.

10:30 Body compensates for injuries, requires ongoing care.

14:16 Emotional healing through physically working scar tissue.

16:28 Learning to work with emotional scars deeply.

20:24 Remaining neutral while observing client's emotional connection.

24:44 Courage in holistic practice, acknowledging emotions crucial.

28:38 PDTR quickly rewires nervous system, removes trauma.

31:08 Scar tissue affects body dysregulation, needing rewiring.

33:46 Diverse experiences after breast explant surgery.

37:43 Physical injury led to self-doubt, introspection, healing.

41:40 Avoid stimulus, focus on natural healing process.

44:17 Developing online sessions and in-person retreats.

48:37 Gratitude for listeners and call to action.

Notable moments during the episode:

The Transformative Power of Healing Scars: "And it just kind of began this experiment of really seeing how much you can unpack in a single scar. And so it has a huge hold and restraint physically on the tissues local but also general to the whole body and all the body systems. But it has this really important piece that I really love that opens up the whole kind of gateway of what really a healing journey is and that's working with the emotional body and how the energetic signature can really get literally entangled and encapsulated inside the scar tissue."

— Kendra Toothill

The Significance of Scar Tissue in Healing Processes: "The scar is just any kind of mending process that has happened where the tissue has healed in some way to form a different bond. The actual components of scar tissue is different than your muscle tissue or your skin or your ligament tendon."

— Kendra Toothill

Respecting the Body's Healing Process: "So when people do hurt themselves and they do have an open wound from accident surgery, giving birth, I always say, like, step one, let the body do what it needs and wants to do. It is seeking a solid, firm, stable anchor point."

— Kendra Toothill

Healing Emotional Trauma Through Scar Tissue Therapy: "And why I love working with the emotions in this way, using the body as a way to stay grounded and in connection with yourself, is when these emotions come up to be processed, you're pretty embodied at that point, like you're building a relationship up with the scar. You're understanding your processes and why things are happening."

— Kendra Toothill

Emotional Scar Tissue and Healing: "And if you were a little child, that created a lot of confusion and that energetic signature of feeling abandoned goes right into the scar tissue."

— Kendra Toothill

Emotional Healing and Physical Contact: "You can't grab happiness or fear out of the air, but when you work with it from being in your body and touching your body and making contact with yourself, it allows those emotions to be worked and explored in a more nourishing way."

— Kendra Toothill

More About Kendra Toothill:

Kendra Toothill began discovering the potential of scar tissue as an Athletic Therapist working in elite-level sports over ten years ago. Over her professional career, she has been refining her geeky scar obsession, which has ultimately birthed a holistic healing method that helps people make sense of their multiple health symptoms in an integrative way, using scars as an anchor point into deep physical, emotional and energetic healing.

As best she can, Kendra strives to walk her talk, which is centered around being empowered through your own healing process, taking chances, being curious (& dorky!), not taking life too seriously and swallowing the "red pill" of self-responsibility, self-awareness and living a life aligned to truth.

Kendra now lives in Costa Rica, and when she is not guiding people through a health and healing process, you will find her exploring nature, enjoying exotic fruits and soaking up the epic sunshine!

Hi beautiful human! I'm really grateful to be welcoming Shirlee Williams back to the podcast..

This is a co-creative episode arising from our collective experience of ENOUGHNESS.

Simply put, this is an episode about ENOUGH. The concept of enoughness in all it’s derivations.

AND I’m really inspired to be having this conversation with Shirlee Williams, a spiritual mindset coach, yoga teacher, mama to two adult twin boys and a behemoth dog. She’s a partner to a fabulous endurance coach, Andrew. A breathwork facilitator, Yoga Teacher Trainer to women over 45 years of age [her YTT program is called Wisdom].

Shirlee and I co-create retreat experiences together for women - in the form of multiday retreats in extraordinary locations and one day events. [scroll down to see Reclaim - Mexico April 2024 and The Gathering - Ontario Canada July 2024].

In this episode, we talk about:

Laura open's the circle in a way that we often do during retreats + special events.
The concept of "enoughness" and the struggle to feel "enough" and "happy" with what one has in life.
Having enough versus Being enough.
The importance of knowing and living by one's values to achieve fulfillment and make meaningful decisions.
Staying present and connected to the present moment to feel fulfilled.
Complexity as the default and the desire for simplicity in life, referencing the rat race of always wanting "more."
Listening to the heart's voice and prioritizing feelings over thoughts, as thoughts can lead to overthinking and feeling "mucked up".
The need to stay aligned with oneself and not be swayed by external influences or judgments from others.
The pressure to live up to certain standards and expectations in daily life.
Seeking fulfillment versus seeking happiness.
Living one's values leading to a greater degree of fulfillment in life.
Shirlee shares her practices and how she stays connected inward to keep rooting into being enough, doing enough and having enough.
Shirlee's "brag notes" as a simple technique for reminding herself how exceptional she is.
The "inner work" involves asking difficult questions, listening for truth, and staying conscious of your inner work through journaling, breath work, and self-reflection.
Inner work is personal and can change over time, and it is important to have agency and bring it into consciousness, even during busy seasons of life.
The need to stay aligned with oneself and not be swayed by external influences or judgments from others.
The one word close of the episode.

The Power of Letting Go: "And it became a metaphor for life for me about what was weighing me down externally and how I could shed more of the external components, almost, of the baggage."— Shirlee Williams

The Importance of Trusting and Listening to Find Truth: "It's asking the really hard, open-ended questions and listening for the truth that I know is there. And it's also, I mean, these days it's taking a tremendous amount of trust to sit and be a little uncomfortable, but know that the answer is going to come."— Shirlee Williams

Self-reflection and Leaving a Lasting Impact: "I ask myself a lot, how do I want to leave the world? What kind of impact? I don't know. Maybe it's like above 50 year old message. I want to leave the world a better place. So then how am I going to show up? What kind of work do I need to do on myself to make that happen? I think that's the inner work for me these days."— Shirlee Williams

The Pursuit of Happiness: "Do you want to be happy, or do you want to be fulfilled? Because I think they're just two deeply different things.'"— Laura Foster

The Power of Self-Worth: "Is it true that you're not enough? Why am I not feeling enough in this moment? Or, why am I not feeling like this is enough in this moment? And I think we have to be willing to tell ourselves the truth of it. Poke some holes in our own story of not being enough."— Laura Foster

Mindful Living: "What you need to do is get very clear on what those actually are like. They're already present, but you just pay attention to them. Because if you focus on living your top four or five values, chances are you're going to feel a lot more fulfilled."— Laura Foster

[00:01:19] Shirlee is curious and effective mentor.

[00:08:50] Exploring feelings of inadequacy and self-comparison.

[00:15:20] Laura discusses deeper conversations with clients.

[00:17:46] "I discern my worth, combat feelings of inadequacy."

[00:24:27] Questioning pursuit of happiness vs. fulfillment.

[00:30:09] Questioning one's worth, seeking external validation.

[00:37:06] Desire for a stunning purse in store.

[00:43:34] Clarify values to make fulfilling choices.

[00:46:28] Younger generation seeks work-life balance, simple life.

[00:49:55] Preparing to walk, pondering life's impact and purpose.

[00:56:51] Debunk limiting beliefs and embrace self-belief.

[01:02:17] Upcoming Mexico retreat, inspiring and joyful experience.

Hey ... look at you go Laura. Two solo episodes in one month!

Today I'm sharing what happened to me when I broke my arm earlier this year. On the surface it was evident the bone needed to heal, but what came through as that bone healing happened, was the opportunity to go deeper into what the IMPACT of that injury had on me.

My body

My heart

My emotions

My sense of what's possible and who I am in the world.

Maybe you've not broken a bone and so this would seem irrelevant to you; however, haven't we all had an injury of sorts (emotionally, physically, financially, spiritually)? When the injury heals, the impact remains.

This is a discussion about healing the impact and how to use the resonance of injury to go deeper into your own healing.

Areas I touch on:

The details of breaking my arm in August 2023
The process of navigating the medical system here in Costa Rica
Importance of taking control of your healing process even if you have professionals around you with more degrees, certification and letters behind their name.
Importance of persisting, tuning in, and being fully supported for fast and complete healing
Healing process unlocks new levels of being and sets off new trajectories
Healing as peeling back layers of an onion- each layer of healing reveals deeper issues held in DNA, cells, and energetic grids
Release and resolution of issues leads to the next layer of healing
Role of alternative healing modalities in managing the body during healing
Broken arm as a catalyst for deeper healing and changes in engagement with others
Understanding the messages and pain the body communicates
Choosing substance and deep learning over floating on the surface
Dealing with the pain and acceptance of the injury's impact
The IMPACT of an injury long after the acute injury heals

Notable Quotes:

On Healing through Discomfort: "I am outwardly and very consciously and inwardly asking my body what messages it has for me. What does this pain represent? Other things that have come up are let me think, what parts of me wants to be healed in this moment? Who am I in this discomfort? That's a good one. Who am I in this discomfort? And then just the one that I turn away from, which is just so good all the time is how can I support myself right now? Like, what do I need right now? And occurs to me that when my arm healed and the impact lingered, this became like the access point for me to come into some deeper healing. And I really think that whether we are talking about a broken bone or we're talking about a broken heart it can be really the same thing. That it's possible that when the acuteness like that - in the moment, the loudest voice in the room heals, there's an impact that can linger. And it's the impact that can create such a deep imprint in your being. And I need to address the impact, I need to address the imprint."— Laura Foster

On The Healing Process: "Healing is like an onion...with each layer of our own healing, we access something deeper, something that we've done a better job of pushing further down."— Laura Foster

On Unlocking New Trajectories: "And this kind of work really, I think, unlocks us for the next level, like setting us off into new trajectories, new timelines, new levels of being."— Laura Foster

On Taking Charge of Healing: "But it's also the responsibility. It's your responsibility. It's my responsibility to take charge of my own healing and to have agency over my body."— Laura Foster

On The Power of Self-Healing: "I am the healer and it's important to listen to my own intuition'"— Laura Foster

Timestamp:

[00:04:40] Left arm injury prompted immediate home treatment.

[00:06:27] Not a chiropractic radiologist but important details.

[00:11:05] Private healthcare in Canada offers easier access.

[00:14:55] Bone healing requires immobilization, but also movement.

[00:17:07] Taking responsibility for healing is vital.

[00:19:57] Arm break spoke loudest, but not most significant. Other healing layers needed attention.

[00:24:01] Infiltrated thoughts; deep, introspective questioning; admission.

[00:27:13] Body messages: pain's representation, healing, support.

[00:31:03] New connections bring growth, despite goodbyes and fear.

This episode is the cosmic reminder of the power of grace, vulnerability and doing what's aligned with your values and ethics.

My guest this week is Kristen Nagle -- a woman my family celebrated a lot over the last few years. What an honour to have her on the podcast.

Kristen is a former NICU nurse of 14 years turned holistic, homeschooling, faithfilled mama.

There is a long pause right in the middle of the episode where I sat in my emotions. There ended up being so much energy for me in this conversation with Kristen.

Kristen is a woman who stood up for her values and risked it all by questioning the "status quo" as a Registered Nurse in an Ontario NICU. As a mom, health practitioner, Registered Holistic Nutritionist and passionate advocate for true health and wellbeing she has a lot of knowledge to share with those who are interested in understanding health, immunity and whole body healing at a deeper level.

In this episode we touch on:

Life as a Registered Nurse pre-pandemic.
Becoming a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. Learning and sharing so much about holistic nutrition and feeding and nourishing infants and children.
Sharing her information with nurses and feeling supported.
Diving into the routine immunization schedule for children.
Questioning the lack of informed consent and wanting more information.
Feeling the tides turning as she talked about the lack of true scientific information.
The Freedom rally and Kristen's involvement at Canada's capital.
What it feels like to have the media turn against you. Being vilified for your beliefs.
Unifying in protests and rallies at hospitals across Canada.
Being suspended as a Registered Nurse.
College of Nurses of Ontario investigation.
Eventually terminated as a RN and resigning her license with the College of Nurses of Ontario.
The transformation from pain to purpose.
What Kristen is now doing and what this means in her life and future right now.
What's lighting her up in the work she's doing.
Hosting a recent one-day birth conference that was wildly successful.

Quotable Moments in this Episode:

On The Importance of Challenging Medical Conventions: "And now I know that critical thinking just means as long as you stay within the box that is provided and don't go outside of what we are telling you to do."— Kristen Nagle

On False Accusations and Resilience: "At that point, I was placed under investigation by the College of Nurses of Ontario. I was put under indefinite suspension. And I saw the disclosure, and I saw some letters that came in, one being a very close family member, that wrote in a three page letter about how apparently I was a QAnon leader, I was leading Trump supporters or doing something, and I should be terminated and my license revoked immediately. I remember where I was in that moment, and I collapsed on the floor. And I don't think I've ever cried so hard in my life. And there was this moment where after the tears and the crying and lots of kind of fallout from other things, I remember thinking I could stay in this spot on the floor or I could pick myself up and keep going because otherwise everything that's already happened would be all for nothing. And so I kept going because I knew there was another nurse in Toronto that had been speaking up. We had already been connected."— Kristen Nagle

On The Power of Hospital Rallies: "And then we knew that we were onto something, because out of all the things that had happened along the way, the most hate we received was after the hospital rallies, right? And it's because the media had to put an end to it, because they were seeing that how successful it was becoming.'"— Kristen Nagle

On Media Hate and the Power of Unity During The Freedom Convoy: "But it was that moment after the media hate. At that time, it was so heavy, and then it was like we're getting so burnt out. And just when we were getting burnt out and done and kind of giving up, the trucks rolled in, and I had to go [be a part of the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa]."— Kristen Nagle

On The Power of Love at the Freedom Convoy: "And we didn't fight evil back with evil, and we didn't fight back hate with hate. And we remained the most peaceful, loving group I'd ever witnessed in my life. And I don't think there's anything more powerful than that."— Kristen Nagle

On Her Initial View of Home Births: "I have done so many 180s in my life, and that was a huge one where I actually would fight with people and say that home birth should be illegal. I thought they were dangerous. I thought those people were reckless. And I went back and apologized to every single one."— Kristen Nagle

On The Power of Showing Up: "Showing up in that moment helps somebody else continue to show up in those moments. I can only imagine how you became a lifeline for so many people."— Laura Foster

Time Stamp:

[00:01:46] Emotional conversation with brave nurse impacts world.

[00:07:11] Parenting changes perspective; different lens now.

[00:13:20] Grateful for unvaccinated sons, understanding illnesses.

[00:21:45] Shift from indifference to preparation amidst pandemic.

[00:27:43] Spoke up for children, video went viral, hate started, connected with supporters, took action, inspired by friend, protest grew.

[00:31:34] Investigation, suspension, false accusations, emotional breakdown, resilience.

[00:35:16] Kristen's impact is unimaginably profound and transformative.

[00:40:34] Media hate, burnout, friends joined, powerful experience.

[00:50:01] Birth conference with Billy Harrigan at Adley's birth. Moment of doubt, encouragement, strength, birthing position.

[00:54:08] "Empowering conversations ripple, inspire women worldwide."

[00:59:45] Motherhood, children, and profound impact on life.

[01:01:20] Please share your inspiration with us via DMs; thank you for listening.

More About Kristen Nagle:

Noteable Quotes:

"On The Origins of Homeopathic Medicine: 'Homeopathic medicine is fascinating because it's considered energy medicine because it has no molecular value left of the crude substance it is made from.'"— Jen Bishop

On The Importance of Listening to Your Body: "The body only has one way to communicate with us, and that is through symptoms."— Jen Bishop

On Homeopathy vs. Western Medicine: "With homeopathy, you really are bringing a new energy to the body and a new, healthier, more balanced energy to the body."— Jen Bishop

On The Balance of Healing: "I really, truly believe that we are already healed. We have what we need within ourselves. But really, what if healing is more about balance than anything else?"— Jen Bishop

On The Energy of Anxiety: "I feel like it's something that's happening in the world energetically, where there's a lot of fight or flight energy, which I've experienced in my life and done a lot of work on, and it's coming to the surface for a lot of people at the moment."— Jen Bishop

On The Power of Homeopathy in Healing Mental Health: "So homeopathy is a beautiful thing, and it's capable of a lot of stuff, especially in mental health and especially with mental emotional symptoms. But it is, again, just a piece of the puzzle to support you in your well being."— Jen Bishop

On The Beauty of Homeopathy: "But this is the beauty of what I know about homeopathy is that gap, that space, that opening that it creates for you is an opening for you to walk through. And without that tap on the shoulder and that opening, it's sometimes difficult to find that space to walk."— Laura Foster

On The Healing Process: "Often times our symptoms, aka signals, are actually healing signals... so much of what goes on in the body is actually signs of healing already occurring."— Laura Foster

On The Power of a Holistic Approach: "The humans in my practice who had a holistic full body approach to how they support their body always got better. Often got better, faster or more completely because everything was working together."— Laura Foster

Inspired by a request from my podcast producer, Alyssa Boccia of Mic Drop Productions, this episode is a solo episode all about my entrepreneurial journey.

Before you put your eye mask on to take a nap, let's think about all the ups, downs and sideways that happen in entrepreneurship.

And questions like, do "successful" entrepreneurs know what they are doing? How do seasoned entrepreneurs handle set backs and difficulties? Are successful entrepreneurs born or created?

It occured to me a couple years ago that my boys have lived with an entrepreneurial mom their entire life and yet even they seemed to only notice the highlight reel. Maybe I shielded my kids from my "failures" [like that time I failed an important licensing exam ... oh ya, fuccck] and when the funding didn't come through and my name was on a lease I didn't have the money for?

I've earned these wrinkles my friends ... and something tells me that if you are an entrepreneur you have faced your own trials and tribulations along the way. If you are new on this journey or contemplating a new direction there will probably be something in this discussion for you.

Despite it all, I'd pick the sovereign journey every single time ... especially now my friends. More on that in the episode.

I also talk about:

[00:15:34] Creating a business plan without knowing what I was doing.

[00:18:51] Uncertainty, signed lease, faced rejections, being my own contractor.

[00:22:10] No patients, no money for marketing. The affordability of door knocking.

[00:25:31] Connecting through speaking and writing as a way to be seen.

[00:27:38] Making tough choices and redefining success.

[00:32:17] Human curiosity; unmet needs, body communication, self-discovery.

[00:33:42] Desire for self-development retreats sparked my current path.

[00:42:02] My 'Freedom 50 Plan' sidetracked by divorce.

[00:44:54] Stay curious, ask questions, and be present.

[00:47:35] Entrepreneurship offers flexibility, freedom, and hard work.

[00:51:59] Share, connect, engage, impact, subscribe, retreats

[00:54:38] The sovereignty of entrepreneurship.

Moments During The Podcasts:

On The Importance of Sharing the "Shit of It": "But that's the thing about observing somebody else's life, is for the most part, we tend to see the highlights. And I didn't fully realize that sharing the shit of it was actually not something that was going to prevent them from wanting to keep walking ahead in their own entrepreneurial journey, but it was actually going to fuel them that they would somehow find compassion for themselves when they had difficulty, when they had troubles, when they came up against their own difficulties."— Laura Foster

On Millennials and the Value of Working for Others: "Working for other people highlighted to me what I liked about working for other people, what I liked about people who ran the businesses or didn't like, and how people responded to certain bosses. All of this, to me, felt like it was research and development."— Laura Foster

On Making Tough Choices: "And anybody in business will know you can do great work, but if the numbers don't work in your business, you're not going to be in business."— Laura Foster

On The Evolution of Dreams: "But at some point eventually, this initial dream of being a chiropractor, owning the clinic, impacting the community, being in connection with other humans, the way I was, stopped being my dream."— Laura Foster

Beautiful humans — today’s episode is all about explanting from breast implants with Adrian Ellison.

This is the first time Adrian has shared her journey publicly on a podcast and with that, she is ready to connect the dots for any women who have had or are considering explant surgery.

This isn’t a discussion about the merits or controversy of getting breast implants.

This episode focuses on how to support yourself, your healing and the invitation into what it would mean for you to become a fully embodied woman who embraces all aspects of who she is.

Adrian is here to be a living testimony to the healing that can occur with proper tissue rehabilitation for scars, neuro re-wiring for the nervous system, detoxing for the organs, healing the gut & lightening the load for the entire body so it can get back to using all its energy for creation instead of fighting.

Here’s where the discussion goes:

Adrian’s journey of getting breast implants and why she decided to get them removed.
Impact of breast implants on the nervous system and lack of awareness in western medicine
What Adrian felt immediately after her breast explant surgery → a massive leveling up in her vibration and the challenges that came therafter.
What Adrian failed to do to prepare herself pre-surgery and how she guides women with the knowledge and resources now.
Her healing journey post-explant surgery and all the things she learned along the way.
Adrian’s recommendation for pre and post surgery support.
Detox and drainage with Christy Nault
Importance of proper drainage during detox to avoid redistribution of toxins
Impact of functional medicine doctor and chiropractor using quantum neuro-reset technique
Emphasis on fascia work and its role in healing
Discovery of Kendra Toothill's work on scar tissue removal and rewiring the nervous system
Impact of implants on muscles, ganglia nerves, and the nervous system
Techniques like EFT tapping and vagal stimulation for signaling safety to nervous system
Need for manual lymph movement techniques
Coffee enemas to increase natural glutathione production
The value of ‘binders’ for detoxification
Lack of connection and feeling of dislocation with implants
Impact of unacknowledged emotions in the body
Disruption of body's circuitry, compensation, and disconnection
The importance of compassion, forgiveness and patience in her healing journey.
Inspiring women to take healing into their own hands and choose healthcare providers carefully

Adrian’s work + offerings:

Healing After Explant Retreat - Nov 10-13, 2024 / Austin, Texas

A 4-day educational + somatic retreat for women recovering from breast explant surgery.

https://www.awakenthemedicine.com/Healingafterexplantretreat

8 Week Virtual Explant Education led by Adrian with guest Kendra Toothill - Begins October 5, 2024

Notable Moments During The Episode:

On The Desire for Connection: "So I think so much of getting implants or any kind of plastic surgery is really a cry for, like, see me, acknowledge me, notice me. Give me attention. Tell me that I'm loved or tell me that I'm enough. Or anything that is of the essence of like I'm changing the way that I look as a way to receive something else in my life."

— Adrian Ellison

On The Impact of Breast Implant Removal: "I'm not going to keep anything in my body that's potentially making me sick when I'm spending so much energy and money and time pouring into my healing."

— Adrian Ellison

On The Complex Nature of Trauma and Healing: "And that's the body's way of saying like, hey, there's this vibration that's too overwhelming in here. And I'm like, I'm trying to offload it, but it's not getting offloaded in a subtle way. So then these things come up and they trigger it and then it's overwhelming, it's too much at once, right? That's really what trauma is."

— Adrian Ellison

On The Importance of Emotional Preparation for Surgery: "By the way, this isn't about implants. This conversation is about everything that's ever happened to you in your life that if it's not digested, will find a home in your explant scars and in your implant scars, because that is the best place for it to go because there's no communication going there."

— Adrian Ellison

On Detox Protocol and Healing: "I mentioned all of that to say - no matter how bad you feel like your circumstances are, my story, if anything, can be a testimony to the fact that the body can go from ‘on its way out + dying’ - where there is no real life left in the cells and in some of the organs and low organ function to where I'm at right now, which is living high vibration."

— Adrian Ellison

Hey beautiful humans,

Our deep, enriching conversation takes a deep dive into the world of traditional medicine, modern healing, and the transformative power of guided psychedelic journeys.

Gary Logan, ATCD -****

Gary is deeply committed to awakening people from their slumber to help them access the richness of the present moment on an ever-increasing frequency.

Gary’s deep awareness of the psycho-physical connection, through the Alexander Technique, is a key distinction of The JourneyMen Collective work that prepares the whole being for the ceremonies and facilitates a dynamic integration process; from the spiritual to the physical embodiment of renewal.

Robert Glover, MSc -

Robert was led to his own shamanic journey, where he remembered that his higher purpose is to help others connect into their innate guidance systems and universal truths through the shamanic path. He learned to honour and offer the dynamic flow of unique metaphysical technology, that is continually unfurling within him, for the people that embark on their own journey.

The Journeymen* Collective* is the masterpiece of Gary and Robert.

They specializes in masterfully guiding visionaries through curated luxurious psychedelic medicine shamanic journeys to create conscious impact for the whole of humanity and the planet.

The Journeymen Collective expertly guide you through the metaphysical wilderness of your soul so that you can weave the transcendental threads of knowledge, accessed during the psychedelic journey, through the eye of the needle of your embodied heart into the tapestry of your visionary reality.

In this episode we discuss:

Their path, individually and collectively, to come to this work.
Description of the four-day experience as a journey, tailored to each individual.
The positive effects of guided use of psilocybin mushrooms.
The pitfalls of continuous psychedelic journeys without utilizing insights gained.
The importance of integration.
Importance of creating and embodying one's higher potential.
"Applied integration" or "new AI" phase of continued questioning and learning.
Example of a client's deeper conversations and presence after a journey.
The game-changing potential of approaching medicine with intent, respect, reverence, and integrity.
Need for ceremonial and ritualized space for deep self-connection and awareness.
Increased capacity for love, peace, happiness, and empowerment after journeys.
Guiding executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals through psychedelic plant medicine journeys.
Need for people to find their passion and purpose to combat depression and disconnection.
Transition from the "forgetting phase" to the "remembering phase" of the planet.
Uncovering the power and potential within the human body.
How you can connect and work with Gary and Robert.

KEY QUOTES:

Personal Growth Through Journaling: "It was like the journaling really helped me to put down on paper my thoughts and feelings about my family dynamic. And I never knew that until right now."— Gary Logan

Celestial Awakening: "This is your awakening. We've been knocking at the door. Are you ready?"— Gary Logan

"Overcoming Grief and Depression: And after Robert came back from his journey, we jokingly say he found his joy spot. And I thought, well, if he can shift his depression, because I had never experienced a big depression or grief or even anxiety. And I thought, what is this? What's going on with my heart and my chest and my breathing? And I thought, well, if he shifted, maybe I need to shift."— Gary Logan

Breaking Free of Societal Constraints: "The idea is, how can I break free of that paradigm of being boxed in from society and parents and break free? First thing to do is, from the inside, poke a hole through the box to see the light come into the darkness. You know there's something on the other side. And as you go to that light, more holes will be poked in the box, and that box will disintegrate, and you will step free out of that box into your true self. It's recognizing that you have put yourself in your own box."— Gary Logan

The Importance of Conscious Business: "And part of what we felt was deeply, deeply important was that people step into conscious business. And how does that happen? Each and every single person that's involved in the business wakes up to their ever evolving journey of becoming more and more conscious."— Robert Grover

Awakening to the Spiritual World: "And I came out of that experience. I had found my joy again. The depression had lifted, the grief had lifted. And when I was working with the medicine men and the discussions and conversations that we were having, I was like, even right now, I've got goosebumps. Even remembering into that moment in that I made sort of a declaration to the universe in that I stated, these are the conversations that I want to be having with people. The depth of conversation, the depth of connection, the depth of exploration and wonder and curiosity is what I wanted to create for people."— Robert Grover

The Power of Remembering: "A big part of this is when we look at the planetary scale, the planet is coming out of a dark phase, a forgetting phase. And so what is on the flip side of that? It's a remembering."— Robert Grover

The Power of Psilocybin and Personalized Attention: "When you meet that medicine with a high level of intent, a high level of respect, reverence, integrity for your own being and for your own discovery process, it can be a game changer when you allow someone to guide you through that vulnerable place, that vulnerable space within yourself."— Robert Grover

The Importance of Education and Guidance in Plant Medicine Journeys: "But we just started, and here we are, and that journey. There's a high need for education in this space that so many people don't know what they're getting into, when they get into it, and then they're in it."— Robert Grover

The Power of Inner Wisdom: "When you start to ignore what's happening out around you, not out of ignorance or disrespect, but when you start cutting away all of the distraction, all of the noise that's out there and you start to listen to that inner wisdom within yourself and you start to let that out, there is no fucking stopping you."— Robert Grover

Co-founder of the renowned Imiloa Institute and visionary behind Movimiento Ancestral, India delves into ancestral healing, connecting people to their roots and unlocking their full potential. Bridging tradition and innovation, she serves as a curator of events and an energetic grid activation facilitator.

She inspires humanity to embrace sovereignty models for freedom, fostering a love for nature and empowering youth to protect Mother Earth.

Powerful moments in this episode:

On The Power of Knowing Yourself: "I feel like we all transition, and I'm one of the many examples that I did not believe in the power of knowing yourself and knowing who I was and trusting instinct and following your dreams."— India Mayorga 00:04:38 - 00:04:55
On The Indigenous Tribe of Talamanca: "Our people came from, from inside the core of the Earth into the lands of Costa Rica and Talamanca."— India Mayorga 00:07:07 - 00:07:15
On Resonance with the Land: "The majority of the people, if not 99.9%, is? Because the land called me. The land called me. I don't know why I'm here, but I just feel a resonance with the land."— India Mayorga 00:12:07 - 00:12:18
On The Power of Nature: "I truly believe that she's calling us and she's speaking. There's a lot of things that are coming to light. I believe that she is a powerful force..."— India Mayorga 00:18:22 - 00:18:33
On The Importance of Protecting Costa Rica's Ecosystem: "I believe that we can come together and weave a new message, a new future.

Harmonious with a new economic way for everyone to benefit."— India Mayorga 00:25:34 - 00:25:49

Hey beautiful humans ---

This one is timely and feels so important to consider as we move through the seasons of entrepreneurship for women.

Rachel Molenda is on the podcast and we are talking all about mental wellbeing in the entrepreneurial journey.

Rachel Molenda is Mindset Coach & Motivational Speaker for Women Entrepreneurs to help them stay mentally, physically and emotionally afloat & aligned in the pursuit of their life and business goals.

Rachel leverages the activating nature of like-minded community, coaching and in-real-life experiences to help turn the light back on in women entrepreneurs who have fallen prey to burn out and self-doubt so they can get back to doing what they were born to do.

Some of the things we dive into:

Rachel's journey of self-discovery and reevaluation.
Ending a relationship and reevaluated her life.
Rachel's philosophy and ability to change her mind
Rachel's journey as a female entrepreneur and her own experience of frequent change and personal exploration.
Her transition into mindset coaching for entrepreneurs and the desire to work with driven entrepreneurs and side hustlers.
The creation of "The Well" - a community and coaching platform supporting entrepreneurs' mental wellness.
Acknowledging the discomfort of entrepreneurship.
Facing and surviving fears.
Teaching yoga and valuing past experiences.
Sharing wisdom and helping others reflect on themselves.
The importance of following intuition, embracing courage, intuition, and the power of choices.
Societal expectations in relationships.
Pursuing soul's desires and aligning actions with goals.
Making bold decisions and living in different countries.
Questioning purpose and impostor syndrome and understanding the underlying reasons and impostor syndrome.
Tired of online success defined numerically and uncertain authenticity.
Releasing attachments and avoiding spiritual bypassing.
Validating negative emotions and experiences.
Finding peace and understanding in life's events.

Notable quotes from Rachel:

The Power of Changing Your Mind: "And one thing I have zero shame about is changing my mind. And I've done that a lot over the last several years. And the thing is, I think when we judge ourselves for changing our mind, we actually limit our growth and evolution."— Rachel Molenda 00:04:1600:04:31

The Power of Letting Go: "And I think you just have to go through a period of massive gripping and then that first leap of letting go to realize that you will be okay once you let go. And also remembering that the gripping is also painful. The reason that we grip is because we're so afraid of what's on the other side of it."— Rachel Molenda 00:06:2900:06:46

The Importance of Mental Wellness for Entrepreneurs: "going after our dreams and bringing our gifts to the world should not have to come at the cost of our mental wellness. This is BS. We're done with it."— Rachel Molenda 00:13:0800:13:16

The Importance of Soul Evolution: "I believe that we have all the interests, the passions, the desires that we do because they are meant to be part of our soul's evolution."— Rachel Molenda 00:29:0600:29:14

The Power of Community: "I think what we do really well in the well is that we normalize the experience. We normalize the ups and downs. So we aren't judging them because it's the judgment of them that actually makes it feel worse than it actually is. Whereas when you see that, we celebrate."— Rachel Molenda 00:33:1000:33:33

The Importance of Gratitude in Social Media: "Even one person that follows you, they are saying, hey, I'm here for whatever you're saying. I want more. That's huge. That's huge. We need to celebrate that more."— Rachel Molenda 00:37:4900:38:01

"Benefits of Community and Coaching: 'I love connecting with women who have a big dream on their heart or even like that inkling that, like, something might be there and just helping to show them what's possible. And I think when we are around other people that are doing the same, that it fills the belief that it can be possible.'" - Rachel Molenda 00:40:5300:41:09

This episode is with Kristin Hallett and today we are talking about life and death and what death has taught her about living. Kristin's work within her business, The Ellipsis Experience, holds space for clients to look at how far they have come, cherish each present moment and ask themselves “who do I want to be when I die?”

It is her destined hearts’ work to encapsulate the essence of each honoured muse, in written (plus auditory) form, to treasure and purposefully pass on. This discussion will inspire you to ask questions you may have never asked yourself. It will make you reflect on life (+ death) going forward and it most certainly will linger in your heart space. Kristin has that way about her.

Things we touch on in this episode:

Importance of addressing and processing unprocessed grief.
Older generations suppressing grief.
Misconception that engaging with grief consumes individuals.
Grief becoming a part of one's being and making their soul stronger.
Grief as soul work and the importance of engagement within oneself and in community.
Sitting down with people to discuss their values and attach a legacy letter to a will.
Kristin's clientele mostly composed of actively dying individuals.
Transformative awakening through this experience.
Bringing ceremony to the dying process.
Helping people let go and accepting death as natural.
Criticism of Western medicine's fight against death.
Conversation about how individuals want to spend their last days.
Changing the conversation around death to be more present in life.
Trusting intuition and making decisions about one's own body.
Significance of ceremonies and rituals in grieving.
Society's dissociation from cultural practices.
Differentiating between feeling happy and allowing oneself to feel.
Gratitude for support and promotion of engagement.
Sessions designed to shift perspective on death and fully live.
Love letter representing essence, goals, dreams, and aspirations.
Importance of healing in community and witnessing healing.
Importance of community in grief and dying.
Kristin's grief circles she holds.

Notable quotes from Kristin:

The Importance of Conversations About Death: "And our fear of death, it links to everything, every choice we make in life, everything that's holding us back."
Terminal Illness Care: "To walk someone home truly is the greatest honor ever."
The Power of Expressing Love: "And it's those moments where I will let them know that they need to hear it. But back to the weight of it all...giving permission for them to tell a loved one...you can just let go, because we try and try to control so much and that's where the fear of death comes from. You can't control it and it will help you let go of that control just to simply love you."
The Power of Grief: "There is a bottom. There is a bottom...You will find your way back. But it's active. It needs to be active in community and also within yourself to work through it."
The Importance of Trusting Your Intuition: "You get to decide how your body leaves here. And I think that that's extremely important because time and time again we just give that autonomy up because it's new. But you can still trust your intuition and your gut because we are at the root of us meant for ceremony, all of us intrinsically."
The Gift of a Love Letter: "Yes, come and do this session with me. You're going to end up with this incredible love letter... It's your essence of who you are. No matter what you do, you are still you on the inside with goals and dreams and aspirations... So it's better to look at as a security deposit of just a gift to them instead of making it go to the morbid side."

Timestamp -

[00:04:48] Kristin spoke at The New Human Event in Enderby, BC Canada

[00:07:05] Discovering passion for deep interviews, writing legacy letters.

[00:13:52] Death links to choices, overcoming fear. Important shift in cultural avoidance. Real conversations happen with no masks. Adrenaline of life fuels sessions.

[00:16:02] Unprepared. Helping families. Honored to assist.

[00:21:54] Processing grief through active engagement and community.

[00:25:02] Healing in community is beautiful and necessary.

[00:30:16] Improving death process: ceremonies, quality over quantity.

[00:34:33] Creating a meaningful experience amidst life's lows.

[00:36:53] Decide your body's departure, trust your intuition.

[00:40:55] Shift your lens, strip fear, really live by writing an incredible love letter.

[00:44:02] Offering limited sessions with passion.

More About Kristin Hallett:

Kristin Hallett looks to death as a constant reminder to wake up and live. She is a seasoned writer, speaker, journalist, author and well-intentioned humourist. She has hosted morning show TV, travelled and worked with the NHL Flames - dedicated to sharing the humanness behind each player - and published the Amazon bestseller and beloved book, Bee Love.
With an innate devotion to meaning-making, Kristin launched The Ellipsis Experience. It is her destined hearts’ work to encapsulate the essence of each honoured muse, in written (plus auditory) form, to treasure and purposefully pass on. Kristin holds space for clients to look at how far they have come, cherish each present moment and ask themselves “who do I want to be when I die?”

The importance of finding the right approach to overcoming Lyme disease.
The impact of environment on health, including mold exposure and electromagnetic radiation from wireless devices.
Nelson encourages listeners to shift their perspective on healthcare practitioners and take personal responsibility for their own well-being.
The importance of personal attitude, physical environment, and stress level in making progress toward healing.

[00:07:42] Ticks, illness, and mold exposure over time.

After nearly two decades of being misdiagnosed, finally we have a path forward to health and wellness...

Nelson had been misdiagnosed with anxiety & depression, until one day it took a severe downturn and almost took his life. Multiple tests, hurdles, scans and a tens of thousands of dollars later: Lyme disease, co-infections and environmental exposures are the culprits. He has learned about many paths around the health care system including conventional medicine, naturopathic medicine, functional medicine, Chiropractic and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Which led him to explore the true meaning of health and wellness. Professionally, practicing as a engineer before changing direction and applying his skills, knowledge and experience to "pioneering paradigm change".

As a powerful storyteller, Kerri loves to share the journey that life led her own family down, including the many hurdles they overcame in order to see the wisdom behind the challenges. Helping others re-awaken within, exposes the fact that we all do have a choice when it comes to our homes, our health and our environments by unplugging from the demanding technologically connected world and focus more on establishing fundamental roots to our mind, body and soul. Achieving balance in all aspects of life has become my daily inspiration.

This 'power couple' is homesteading, unschooling and pioneering their way back to simplicity. Building a life around the rhythms of nature in the country for themselves, their family and generations to come.

True health and wellness and the illusion of the medical system and scientism. We are passionate about sharing our journey back to self connection, true wellness and natural rhythms.

The impact of artificial environments (physical, mental, spiritual) on health and wellness.

Everyone has their own way to learn and gain wisdom, the ultimate goal may be the same but the path to understanding is unique to each. We have to learn to keep learning from each person we meet, each experience we encounter and weave it into the tapestry of our lives.

More About Sarah:

After establishing her first Massage Therapy & Wellness Clinic at the age of 28, Sarah went on to grow her clinic to multiple 7 figures and a team of 30+ experts, and now works clinically only 4 hours per week because she chooses to. Sarah continues to practice massage and energetic healing modalities included in andean shamanism, breath work (pranyama) and therapeutic movement in Vernon, BC and online courses.

In her 20 year practitioner career she has always been guided to collaborate with multiple disciplines and curates care based on a body, mind and soul approach in retreat events and private consultation.

Now Sarah dedicates her passion, knowledge and experience to helping other health professionals and practice owners to realize their own goals and aspirations. Sarah coaches leadership through understanding team dynamics, weaving together her spa and clinical management experience as well as her private coaching and retreat event management background. She uses her industry expertise in business development and health plan programming in combination with her Human Design and Genekeys teaching career.

Karma Well Health was born from Sarah's passion that health and wellness industry leaders and multidisciplinary practitioners are stronger when in collective collaboration. Her experience with her membership based massage business taught her the value of creating a container of expectation for care but it also demonstrated how a business could provide the practitioner a place for them to thrive with predictable and reliable membership revenue. “I want to build a health care system within our healthcare system, based on a new ecology - a marketplace that teaches patients how to heal deliberately and consistently as a way of life. A system that is built by practitioners, for practitioners”.

Hey - Welcome to the podcast. Today’s episode is a co-creative conversation with Pam Rocca about alcohol —> social consumption, the “gray” area, choosing or not choosing to drink and our recent personal experience with going alcohol free.

Alcohol and women is a hot topic, kind of ‘fashionable’ so-to-speak and one that both Pam and I have been curious about for some time. So here we are – talking booze. There’s lots to unpack here and we'd love to hear from you. No judgement. All love.

We're all just trying to walk this path of life with as much soulfulness as possible (is that even a thing? If not, maybe it should be. lol)

Here’s what we chat about:

An IG story that Pam posted recently that blew up her DM’s - all about taking a break from alcohol. Pam shares what she said and how her community responded.
Both Pam and Laura share their history with alcohol dating back to childhood.
The marketing message of alcohol and women.
The positive and negative feedback of alcohol consumption.
Determining whether you are better as a moderator or as an abstainer.
Strategies that are working for us – in all settings {see below for specific resources + books}
Pam shares some things to reflect on, if you desire.
The physiologic effects of alcohol consumption.
How to support those in your circle that are working to reduce their alcohol consumption or go alcohol free.
How to connect with Pam + to work with her.

Hello beautiful soul,

Today is a solo episode talking about the gift of resistance and how I've had to learn (and continue to learn) how to recognize when I'm gripping and attempting to control life and it's outcomes.

This episode is all about finding more flow in life - personally + professionally

Themes I address in this episode:

What resistance feels like in life / the energy of pushing, gripping and attempting to control the outcome.
The sustainablity of pushing forward in life.
Exploring what flow state feels like and how it shifts the energy and outcome.
Flow consciousness
Learning to let go and allowing yourself to surrender to what is.
Finding the balance between your masculine and feminine energy.
How to practice being more in flow - especially if achievement and productivity are ways in which you value your worth.
The role of self awareness - Learning when to pause along the way.
The role of curiosity - Asking better questions.
Practicing more moments of flow. What brings you flow?
Less multitasking
Less forcing
Identify the time of day when you are most focused naturally
Creating recovery time in each day - what to do and why
One of the benefits of flow consciousness: loss of self-consciousness (self monitoring).
My experience with Elemental Rhythm breathwork as a way to unburden and stop gripping in life.

[00:04:04] Surrendering to life's flow, Laura discusses resistance and flow and how to achieve the latter.

[00:09:10] Self-reflection and asking questions helps to understand personal intentions and emotions, leading to personal answers and growth.

[00:15:26] Improve self-awareness to find moments of flow in life.

[00:19:47] Creating space for self-awareness, noticing resistance as a gift, and practicing moments of flow.

[00:23:28] Distraction kills flow, find your most focused time of day to improve flow.

[00:30:00] Stop multitasking, schedule high priority tasks during peak focus times, and prioritize keeping promises to oneself.

[00:39:16] Breath work has brought a sense of flow to my life.

Hello friends, I feel incredibly blessed to have co-created this inspired conversation with my guest Chris-Anne Donnelly.

It feels like the underlying theme of this podcast episode is - You don't have to do it like everybody else.

In fact, please D O N ' T.

Extraordinary magic happens when you allow different parts of yourself to play together in the same space. This seems like something Chris-Anne has been leaning into for a very long time.

Chris-Anne is an artist, designer, poet, Hay House author and best-selling oracle and tarot deck creator who is currently on sabbatical from her creative work to finish up her acupuncture studies.

She's pretty awesome and she shared so much wisdom in this episode.

Here's where this conversation led us:

The courage it takes to be a creative and put your “work” out into the world. How fearlessness doesn’t fully exist (in my life or hers) and yet she is able to “feel the fear and do it anyways.”
Chris-Anne’s journey to artist, poet, designer, Hay House author and oracle and tarot deck creator. A 5-year move to Chile, South America many years ago jump started her entrepreneurial journey with design and online work.
A post on Instagram from March 27, 2023 that sparked my desire to reach out to Chris-Anne to be on the podcast. You can access that post HERE.
Acknowledging how ‘frazzled’ her nervous system became from mental burnout in late 2019 and how that led to full burnout in 2020.
Chris-Anne shares how her critical thinking ability went off-line due to burnout and how this shifted her into a deep seeded state of fear. She spent several months in 2020 in quiet contemplation and restoration tending to her dysregulated nervous system.
How she became even more resilient as a result of what she went through at this time.
How oracles and tarot cards can help create self-understanding of who we are and what we want to bring to the world.
The difficulty of imagining ourselves in the greatest expression of who we are.
Chris-Anne shares where the inspiration of each one of her oracle and tarot decks came from.
How she got to the point where she was brave enough to expose the full spectrum of her gifts to the world.
Learning that by being “yourself” it leads to being more ‘truly’ accepted in the world than the story we tell ourselves about who we need to be, to be accepted.
How a loss of creativity as a result of burnout meant that she needed to attend to her own healing and take a pause on the work she had been doing to that point.
Enrolling in Acupuncture school in 2021.
How her studies have prompted a knowing that she desires to work collaboratively, bringing together her creative side with her acupuncture knowledge in a way she’s yet to have clarity on.
Chris-Anne’s realization that external validation has often played a big part in the work she’s done in the past and how she’s honing her ability to regulate her own energetic system as a result of her current studies.
“We can do anything, but we can’t do everything.”
Chris-Anne’s belief that our individual magic lies in our ability to bring together the unique pieces of ourselves and find a way to show them to the world.
The strategies she used to re-regulate her dysregulated and frazzled nervous system when her old ways of supporting herself were no longer working as well as they once did.

Celebrating a little bit of a milestone over here on the podcast - our first guest to return for a second episode on pod!

I'm super happy to have my good friend and colleague, Dr. Kevin Preston join me on the podcast this week. Our original intention was to primarily focus our time on the epic in-person event that Dr. Kevin is hosting in British Columbia, Canada ... called The New Human.

... But, as per usual, we managed to deepen the conversation into much more.

We talk about:

The honour of doing the work that he gets to do what he does in his clinic in Vernon, BC, Canada as a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbalist and acupuncturist, trained in biological medicine.
His desire to want to work with his patients and others on a deeper level and for longer periods of time in incredible natural settings which has led him to retreats, one day and multi-day events.
His own healing journey and the work he's down within himself so that he can be "on the playing field" of his own life and not sitting on the stands of his life watching things go by.
How he has seen the pattern in patients of when we live misaligned in our own lives it creates stagnant energy within ourselves and leads to dis-ease --> the connection between stuck emotions (nonintegrated emotions) + illness.
How fear, at one time, limited his ability to move forward in life and how he overcame it.
Facing the fear of the things you do know you need to change, so that you can be on the leading edge of addressing what's happening within you.
How meditations gave him visuals of how he can serve humanity and be of service to more people.
How the container we've held in the past starts to change and how difficult it can be to make the transition to new things that light you up. Dr. Kevin shares how this is happening for him despite the fact that he still loves to see his patients in the clinic and continues to do so.

The New Human Event -- June 10 + 11, 2023 in Enderby, BC, Canada

This 2-day live & in-person event is designed to help you become the clear and empowered version of yourself; to write your greatest story.

A meditation showed him the vision of a big event with humans who are resonating with the New Earth energy where we face the truth and awaken to our own truth and see what's happening around us and within us as Mother Earth supports the emergence of a new way.
The emergence and expansion of the new human who is no longer willing to ignore the destruction of the planet and
Two days of doing the "work" together in the Splatsin Centre - an Indigenous Centre in Enderby, BC. led by Dr. Kevin and other keynote speakers such as Mark Groves and Kristin Hallet.
During this event you will be in community and connection with other humans who feel the call to show in a new way -- to feel deeply connected to your heart energy within yourself so that you can lead life in a new way.

All the details for THE NEW HUMAN are HERE.

More about The New Human: Supporting one another together on this journey will help us each recognize what’s truly important to us. Then we can take steps to orient ourselves to follow the heart’s guidance more purely and simply.

We’ll be sharing powerful tools, knowledge, resources, and processes that will allow you to open your eyes to what’s not only possible but completely actionable. There will be experts in their respective fields of study teaching and sharing their wisdom; from regenerative medicine, thriving relationships, emotional and ancestral healing, and soul level blueprinting activating your very own DNA.

Come sharpen your instincts and your intuition. We’ll be showing you the steps on how to reconnect with your own true nature, and the natural environment all around you. We’ll be resolving hidden interference patterns that can clear the pathway to your fulfillment. Imagine how that would feel? Imagine what we can experience from that place?

This is your opportunity to become The New Human, together.

More about Dr. Kevin Preston:

Dr. Kevin is a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbalist and acupuncturist, trained in biological medicine. Known for his experience treating toxicity, chronic illness, and mystery syndromes, Kevin has served thousands of patients across North America, by combining extensive education and experience with intuition and heart connection, letting compassion rise to the forefront of all he does.

He’s passionate about activating the inherent medicine within each of us, unlocking the true potential of the DNA and cellular network. Whether he is working in his clinic in Vernon, BC, in online workshops or hosting both large scale and intimate events, he works on all levels from the physical to the spiritual, and helps transform that into beautiful vitality.

Hey beautiful souls - Laura here with one of the women who has been instrumental in the building of the business that represents the impact I’m here to make on the world - through Soul Inspired Gurl.

Amanda is deeply passionate about doubling the number of female entrepreneurs in Canada and teaching female entrepreneurs how to build a wildly successful business around their life, not a life around their business.

I know -- I've been one of her clients.

In this episode Amanda shares what she had to learn and unlearn to truly step away from living life on other’s terms to building the one that lights her up.

In this episode she answers questions such as:

Were you always living life on your terms?
What did it take for you to make that switch?
What did you need to overcome within yourself to be able to live out the expression of your life?
How important is mentorship to you? Where do you seek that within your own life?
What are women actual seeking when they come to work with you?
How do you define success?
In your opinion, what do we need to truly understand to find "success" in our professional life?
If there was something we needed to "unlearn" along the path of female entrepreneurship, what would it be?
How do you coach women to connect to their WHY in business? And to their mission?
The vulnerable process of publishing her first book: The Monarch: The Signature 8 Method for Launching Your Dream Business with Clarity, Confidence & Love.
What Amanda learned / remembered about herself along the way of writing her book.
And lastly, we also talk about Monarch Momentum Membership - a community Amanda has created for heart centered female entrepreneurs.

Here's what I know -- it doesn't need to be so hard.

Your mission, your purpose, your path -- Such big questions and so often we torture ourselves trying to figure it all out.

We don't want to miss a thing on this one life we are living. If you've ever thought about who you are and why you are here ... like REALLY thought about it, this episode will land right in the center of your heart.

This conversation is with Soul Mission Activator, Colleen Lindberg.

I know. That's quite a title. I asked her about it. Specifically, what is a Soul. Mission. Activator. and how did you ever get to the place where you know this is the work you do in the world?

I had so many questions for this incredible human:

What is a soul’s blueprint?
How does one connect with their soul mission?
How do we block this information?
How do you teach or guide humans to activate their soul mission?
Do we turn away from our mission and purpose? Why?
What are some of the signs that we are stepping into our soul’s mission?
How would you describe what’s going on in the world right now with respect to the energetics of the world and humans right now? Are we breaking down or are we stepping up?
What are some of the things you do or remember that allow you to stay in a committed framework of the work you’re doing in the world?
How does this show up in the work women are doing in the world?
How do you support lightpreneurs in their business?

Colleen has been known to collapse timelines, break apart old business paradigms, and infuse fairy magick into calls with her, channeling dragons, goddesses and all other lightworker support.

Colleen really believes that your light matters in the world. The more you shine brightly in your uniqueness the more impact you can make. I couldn't agree more.

Colleen could be classified as many things… Guardian to the Fairy Realm, Soul Mission Activator, Animal Enthusiast and all around Bad Ass Rebel owning her craft.

Potency, Amplification, Power and Alignment are key words that would describes Colleen’s programs and offerings that she serves up to Lightpreneurs globally.

Light Warriors are her jam and she loves being able to help spark part of the light movement on Earth. It's a big conversation and also, one that vibrates in the frequency of truth and knowing. If you are in a place of awakening and opening to the bigger picture of your life, you'll resonate with this episode and Colleen's words.

Today's episode is with Canadian unschooling advocate, Tasha Fishman: Coach / Mentor + Advocate and fearless Truth teller.

Tasha describes herself as a regular mama who unleashed her kids from the formal education system to complete Freedom to learn organically.

Tasha has three boys and has been unschooling her two youngest sons since waking up to the absurdity of public health and public school back in May 2020. She has studied and been coached personally by Dayna Martin, the founder of Radical Unschooling to become an “Unschooling Advocate” and free her children and herself from the bondage of institutionalized slavery. When she started, she had no idea that this path would radically transform the way that she parents, how she advocates for children’s rights and how she views the world in general. Her pursuit for Freedom within our own country has led her to question and investigate every system that has raised us and ask the fundamental question: Who does this benefit?

This episode will definitely be polarizing - but hear me out. I wanted to have this discussion because things are moving rapidly in Canada [and likely in other first world nations]. The curriculum, the system and the transfer of power from parent to institution is part of an agenda that is extremely blatant and brazen.

In this interview I found myself scrambling for words in parts of this episode. Everything is a hot button topic and as it’s designed, woke culture will label you as a homophobe, racist, misogynist and anti-everything. It’s the cancel culture zone – but as I know it, these are the tough conversations that we need to be having.

You definitely don’t need to agree with what we talk about here - but how wonderful if you’d give it a listen.

In my opinion: If we don’t lean in to more of these conversations, as parents we’ll be cast aside and our government will continue (yes, I said continue) to take on more ownership over our children. Sometimes you just don’t know what you don’t know and frankly, so much of what's happening in the classroom has nothing to do with well intentioned teachers and faculty.

It goes way beyond that.

So, here’s me opening the door to a deeper awareness of things that are already happening in our Canadian education system and as Tasha says, “Don’t take her word for it”. You can reach out to Tasha for resources. Question everything and be open to changing our perception of what’s happening.

I deeply appreciate Tasha’s wise voice and her willingness to be one of the humans who goes first.

A few highlights of today’s episode:

Tasha answers the question, “Is our education system failing our children?” + how
Tasha’s journey from homeschooling to unschooling mom + advocate.
The difference between homeschooling and unschooling.
What’s going on in the school system that so many parents are unaware of.
Why there have been so many shifts in the curriculum [especially in the last few years] and where that really comes from, historically.
The roots and history of our ‘modern’ compulsory education system.
How teachers, principals and education assistants are typically well-intentioned pawns in the system.
The separation of child from parent
Tasha’s recommendation to research everything she shares in this episode and in her work.
The transgenderism movement in the school system.
How to change this and advocate for what our children truly need.
Tasha shares the globalist agenda and how schooling plays a part in it.

“I am a regular mama who unleashed our kids from the formal education system to complete Freedom to learn organically. I have three boys and I have been unschooling my two youngest sons since waking up to the absurdity of public health and public school back in May 2020. I have studied and been coached personally by Dayna Martin, the founder of Radical Unschooling to become an “Unschooling Advocate” and free my children and myself from the bondage of institutionalized slavery. To sum it up: Unschooling is a philosophy and a lifestyle where you put the needs and interests of your children first before the needs of an institutionalized curriculum which adheres to a teacher, who answers to a principal, who reports to a Board, who complies to our government, who follows the WEF, who ultimately serve the elite ruling class families who control all of us! It’s time to break that chain…We are not Free until we are All Free and that includes our children. I offer weekly group parenting coaching calls, private coaching sessions and I am happy to share my story through various mediums. Feel free to like my Instagram page for all parents (Unschoolers & Homeschoolers) alike to connect, share resources and create meetups. I know that we can create a great community for ourselves and our children outside of the school system.” SCHOOL DETOX KIT – IT’S FREE

What will I learn? * There is a peaceful alternative to Forced Learning. * There is a way to live harmoniously with your children at home. * You are more capable and competent than you think! * Children can learn and thrive without curriculum and/or forced learning. * Breaking down your own programming is the key to a successful transition. * The 3 main dark agendas in Public schooling. * How to handle an unsupportive spouse or family member. * Radical shifts in perspective lead to radical shifts in lifestyle which has nothing to do with being privileged! * Unschooling is a lifestyle stemming from a peaceful parenting paradigm. * We are breaking free from an authoritative paradigm and into a partnership paradigm with our children.

Hey beautiful soul -- this episode with Drs. Brooke and Lynne is going to brighten your day.

Being able to enhance and embrace how you look in a way that truly resonates with you.
How to find more purpose and meaning and knowing that you need to have a purpose.
Deepening into the work of self as a way to know more deeply who you are.
Female friendships: why they are so important and how to find these important connections at this time in our lives.

Being that all 3 of us are experiencing this transformational time in life, nothing is off the table - from resiliency to vitality to purpose // including values, stress management, female friendships, hormones + menopause and beyond.

Today's episode is with Caitlin Nagy and we talk all about Young Onset Parkinson's Disease - including her diagnosis, her journey and the wisdom she's gained along the way.

A lot of people perceive Parkinson's Disease [PD] to be an old person’s disease. However, the number of people diagnosed with PD in their 20’s, 30’s and 40’s is dramatically increasing. In fact it is one of the fastest growing neurological disorder in people under 45.

In this episode Caitlin shares the circumstances surrounding her diagnosis at 32 years old and how her pregnancy significantly influenced the progression of the symptoms (which is not uncommon). For the first 6 years Caitlin avoided social events, get togethers or meeting up with old friends because she was totally ashamed of her body and her lack of control over it. And really just didn’t want to try and explain what it was when I really hadn’t accepted what it was myself.

Caitlin shares her journey from resistance to acceptance and what that has meant for her self esteem and self identity [this might be my favorite part of the whole discussion].

In this episode Caitlin also talks about the reality of how medications for PD have been exclusively tested on only men and yet, for women there is a significant influence that comes from our unique hormonal journey and cyclical physiology.

Caitlin shares what medical and holistic approaches have been helpful for her including synchronizing her nutrition and lifestyle to the infradian rhythms of her body, psilocybin microdosing and a whole host of other approaches.

More about Caitlin / Creative By Caitlin + Highlands Estate:

Caitlin is a self described generator, visual storyteller, creative problem solver and late night Pinterest junkie who owns and operates Creative By Caitlin. She specializes in brand development, website design and creative consulting.

She has lead and developed creative teams for some of the biggest household brands in North America and currently consult on process and team development for in-house creative teams and boutique agencies. In 2020 Caitlin and her family purchased a 1960’s chalet on 97 acres in the Blue Mountains of Ontario. What they thought was going to be an Airbnb and family ski getaway quickly morphed into an even bigger idea of turning it to a luxury destination resort and wedding venue. They now own and operate Highlands Estate. [check it out - it's incredible].

Hey - I've got a really great episode with my friend and colleague, Ciara Foy. We are talking frankly all about weight loss and health optimization for women.

Oh … so January of us — but it’s not. This episode is an honest and powerful conversation around how Ciara empowers women to take impeccable care of themselves so that they can maintain the energy, motivation and passion it takes to go after their dreams while curating each day … and therefore the life, they choose.

Ciara is a Women’s Weight Loss + Hormone Expert. She's also the author of the Amazon Bestseller "Empowered by Food" Heal Your Hormones, Balance Stress and Become Unstoppable and the founder of “The Empowered Feminine” podcast.

On her own health journey, Ciara faced and overcame weight gain, burnout, depression, and a self-destructive mindset. She now uses those experiences to help women create room for self-care and get back on track to become their happiest, healthiest selves.

In this episode we talk about:

We talk about mindset and actionable strategies that are fundamental to the work she does with women.
Ciara's journey to date and how she came to the work she does with women.
Ciara's 1:1 relationships with women and where she starts when she begins working with them. It's all about their mindset, subconscious and limiting beliefs and understanding why they haven't had the success they are ultimately desiring.
When Ciara is teaching women about weight loss, what she is actually teaching them. It goes beyond counting calories but truly understanding how food works and all the other factors that contribute to a healthy metabolism and energy management.
Ciara shares the most common myths or untruths that so many of us tell ourselves that keep us stuck in unhealthy or unproductive patterns.
The role of protein in keeping and building muscle mass [and why its vital to your health and metabolism], blood sugar regulation and how much we need.
Why sleep is one of your most important modulators of good health and optimal weight management.
Exercise and movement - how much, how often and what type.
What it's like to work with Ciara in her 1:1 or group containers [and why she's so good at the work she does with women].

Dive in and enjoy the episode.

More about Ciara:

When Ciara is not working out, spending time in nature or with her two daughters —she's empowering women through her podcast "The Empowered Feminine", speaking on virtual stages and providing clinical evaluation and coaching to women all over the world, from Bay Street to Wall Street, Florida to Spain and beyond.

This is my first solo episode of Season 2 and I'm sharing my biggest lessons and rememberings of 2022.

I had some really significant lessons handed to me last year and as I often do, I like to close out the year sitting in reflection of both my highs and my lows. I usually spend 2-3 hours walking myself through my year - deconstructing it - so that I can harness the pearls and gems of my journey.

Today I'm sharing my FIVE biggest lessons. Some I felt I learned for the first time and some gems I felt came back into my awareness. I remembered them. Kind of like, "Oh yes, ... thank you. Thank you for this reminder of what I already knew."

This ritual is one that helps me remember that I'm wiser than I sometimes let myself believe and something tells me you are too. Hopefully this solo episode sparks a remembering in you and helps you reflect on what's coming through you to be heard, witnessed and healed too.

Some highlights from the episode:

#1. Let yourself see the absolute truth of your life - without judgement

#2. Don't shy away from tough conversations. It's a skill that requires practice. Don't overthink or overcomplicate it. Simply show up to the conversation that's right in front of you.

#3. Focus on what you do know -- not what you don't. When you stop hyperfocusing on the unanswered questions of your life it gives space to have what is flowing towards you, to flow in. There is such a thing as divine order and by allowing yourself to find patience and cultivate deeper trust, you give permission for the Universe to deliver more than you thought possible.

#4. Let support in. I share a story of how my lack of truly receiving has been blocking the sacred reciprocity of the giving + receiving cycle. Less vigilance - more softening.

#5. Hold your fears and your desires lightly. Allowing the seasons of life to truly come and go means that I can welcome, receive and release this process with more gratitude and presence. Learning to let things go so that you can be there to let life grow. There's no other way and this acceptance -- shall I say 'surrendering' has been one of my biggest lessons of 2022.

Dive in and enjoy the episode.

Thank you for listening to the podcast. I'm deeply honoured to have you be an active or new listener. I have recently opened up some opportunities for women to work 1:1 with me in personal leadership coaching.

Shirlee Williams is joining me on the podcast today! Shirlee is a spiritual mindset coach and is my “soul-sista retreat co-facilitator”.

Shirlee works with women who are 40+ and have done enough work and growth in their life to know that they deserve more; that they are worthy of the life that is calling to them. Shirlee is deeply committed to living and helping others live a full authentic life. She is incredible at guiding women to understand that every situation and every life experience up to this point has been for your own awakening.

In this episode we talk about what living unapologetically means to Shirlee as well as actionable strategies that you can implement today that will help you live life more authentically. What I love about this conversation is the tangibles – a handful of key things you can shift that will feel like you are living more unapologetically.

Shirlee talks about how to set up your day so that you are in the creation of what you desire versus living in the regret and patterning of what has always been.

Shirlee also shares her experience with the power of ‘manifestation’ [we both agree that we need to change the name!]. There is a place where intention meets action that truly fuels your ability to manifest what you desire and who you desire be’ing in this life.

Towards the latter part of the episode we talk all about the MAGIC of retreats and our upcoming 7-day eco luxe retreat in Mexico. Shirlee shares her experience of attending retreats solo, what comes from saying yes to yourself and how the needs of every woman in a retreat get woven together as the retreat unfolds.

What I love about this conversation is the wisdom and humor that Shirlee brings forth and as she says, her superpower is being exactly who she is.

It’s so damn true. Enjoy the episode and if you want to know more about this retreat - follow this link.

Working with Dr. Laura Foster / Soul Inspired Gurl: My gift lies in my ability to tap into what isn’t being said. By creating a space that allows you to heal and connect inwards, we can get to the essence of what is holding you back and ensure that what you create is fully aligned with who you are.

Shirlee’s Bio:

More than 30 years ago I found myself on a yoga mat breathing deeper than I had ever had before. From that moment on, I knew things would be different.

I have always been a seeker of “WHY”. Curiosity has led me down a spiritual path of yoga, meditation and entrepreneurship. I opened and directed a successful yoga and spin studio for 14 years. Taught 10 years of Yoga Teacher Training. Ran local and international retreats. When last year's pandemic hit, I used the year to grow and expand not only my spiritual growth but the growth of my business.

A Life Coaching Certification with the Jay Shetty Certification School has broken me open.

This 53-year-old spiritual seeker, mama of 23-year-old twin boys, and a lifetime of stories have shaped my world.

I AM a spiritual mindset coach that is deeply committed to living and helping others live a full authentic life. I want to guide you to understand that every situation, every life experience up to this point has been for your own awakening.

I believe that each and every one of us deserves to take up space in the world. You have a gift that needs to be shared!

Happy Holidays!

This is my holiday episode which happens to be all about quitting … legit. My guest today is Jacqui Acree, a highly sensitive enneagram 8, a self-compassion advocate and an accidental self-help disruptor.

Jacqui and I dive into the concept of quitting, what it means, what it doesn’t and why we are so averse to quitting some things and so apt to quit others. We also question why quitters sometimes win and not the age old adage, 'winners never quit'.

Through a blend of EFT tapping and parts of self work, Jacqui helps women unlearn old patterns of perfecting, pleasing, proving, and performing so that they can unlock their most authentic self. She’s the founder of Being Human Together, an online course community for highly sensitive women who are waking up to the truth: if being hard on yourself worked, it would have worked by now.

Be sure to check the show notes for the giveaways and links to all her offerings.

In this episode:

The potentially toxic message of “New Year, New Me”
Discovering a new way of thinking about quitting.
How to give yourself permission to quit.
Trusting intuition versus cognition when it comes to doing what's right for you.
Noticing the judgment towards yourself and others when we choose to quit.
How to continue evolving into your best self, without being too hard on yourself.
Learning to discern when to quit and when to grit.
What is a Highly Sensitive person.
Tips for highly sensitive people - to learn more, check out Elaine Aron.
Conditioning ourselves to trust ourselves.
The tool of tapping to process our thoughts of quitting and abundance.

Key Quotes from Jacqui Acree:

“I think that quitting is a verb, it is not an identity.”
“I walked around like a disembodied head for the first 4 decades of my life, just thinking my way through things and expecting my body to get on board and follow along.”
“We are taught that intuition is not a good source of information.”
“You are allowed to stop.”
“If being hard on yourself worked, it would have worked a long time ago.”
Ask yourself, "do I want to quit because this is hard, or do I want to quit because this is wrong?”
“Do not make your decisions based on the past, make them based on future intentions.”
“How do you quit when quitting is often judged.”
“Ask your future self for the now answers. Listen to what that version of you has to say.”

PSA - We talk about how to live an integrated life PLUS we are giving away two of Renée’s Morning Practice Planners.

Today is a very potent conversation with Renée Warren. Renée is an award-winning entrepreneur, inspirational speaker, author, and founder of We Wild Women, a platform that helps entrepreneurs start and scale their own businesses.

She is also the host of an incredible podcast, Into the Wild.

Renée has recently created the Morning Practice Planner, a 6-month planner that encompasses not only your daily schedule and all of the parts of your various goings-on, but it also brings together exercises that teach you how to make the right decisions, how to establish values that will help guide you, and how to create mission statements that will inspire your daily actions.

In this episode Renée talks about living an integrated life. A life that not only inspires you but brings together all of the important parts of what you value in your personal and professional life because as we both know, there is no delineation of the woman who needs to show up in her biz, and the one who walks her path through life.

I would file this episode under “there is a better way to do this thing called life, and we are here to talk about it.”

Be sure to head on over to Instagram where we are doing a giveaway of two of Renée's morning practice planners (details below). The giveaway is from November 8 - 11, 2022. If you miss it, do not worry, you can find the planner on Renee’s website.

In this episode:

How to live an integrated life.
The path that Renee took to get to where she is today.
Renee and her husband are very busy, but they realized they need to put in work to live an integrated life, putting themselves and their health priorities first
Their concept for putting marriage as a priority above their kids so they can show up better for their children.
Organizing family life and treating family life as a business.
Running a million-dollar business, but still being able to be with your kids in the way that works for them.
Creating your definition of success … and living it.
Questions to ask your partner in those tough moments.
Making an impact in the world through living your life and showing others what is possible.
How Renée has learned to let go to achieve her dreams.
The head, heart, body approach to making decisions.

Key quotes from Renée Warren:

“I got to the point where I was burnt out and could not do it anymore.”
“Traveling is school. Why do we think school is only within 4 walls in a government supported facility? School is a lived experience.”
“The most important part of a family is to support each other.”
“The old ways of doing business are so masculine, there is this feminine shift that is coming into the workplace of how we do business.”
“I am helping people see this story inside of them, but also they feel permission to try things in new ways.”

This week my guest is the inspirational Jennifer Jordan. Jenn is an attorney, divorced, mama to 3 kids and is on a path of spirituality and growth.

In this episode Jenn talks about how she is learning to surrender, be curious to her pain and the growth that comes from meeting herself in her most uncomfortable moments.

Jenn shares how she has been able to shift her focus away from living a life of certainty to one that involves challenging her thinking, her beliefs, her body and her mindset. It’s available to all of us if you are willing to let yourself let go of control.

One of my favorite parts of this episode is when Jenn shares her journey of self discovery and her recent 17x summit of Stratton Mountain in Vermont as part of the 29029 event.

Jenn talks about what this event is, and how this epic endurance event has changed her life forever going forward. Her vulnerable and wise share of her journey, perspective and mindset is inspiring.

“I’ve let go of trying to control my life, and have started to let life flow.”

“Sitting silently with yourself is a great way to get in tune with what is happening inside of you.”

“There is nothing that feels better inside than following your truth.”

Today I am talking to Meaghan Alton, a Master Numerologist, Economist, Business Coach to Professional Intuitives and Healers, and a Professional Intuitive.

In this conversation, we dive deep into Numerology. Meaghan describes numerology as using the language of numbers to interpret energy. It’s all about the energy of business, abundance, and above all, what’s available to you in the expansion of your life.

Meghan teaches us about soul codes and how claiming and understanding our soul codes is an extraordinary way of stepping onto our life path and fulfilling our soul purpose. I even ask her about the repeating numbers we all see and talk about. You know - numbers like 11:11 and 444. She explains what they actually mean, how they inform us and how we can step more deeply into our intuition and claim more abundance.

In this episode you’ll also hear more about:

The intersection between intuition, business, energy and magic.
How Meaghan’s money beliefs dictated her beliefs on feeling free.
Her early start into numerology, and helping her clients realize their full potential through tarot and numerology.
Her journey through different career paths and her transition from being an Economist to a Numerologist.
How we can interpret energy through different modalities.
What repeating numbers really mean.
The connection between Numerology and Spirituality.
The year of the SIX – A beautiful full circle moment of Meaghan telling more about the significance of this time.

Key quotes from Meaghan:

“Money equals freedom. If I could understand how money works, I could feel free.”
“The people who are here to make a difference in the world deserve to feel financially supported in a business that lets them thrive.”
“My work as a numerologist and as an economist was all about predicting and understanding numbers.”
“Energy is a nebulous cloud of filings floating in the air and numerology is a magnet that grounds and gives structure to the cloud of filings, and then your intuition comes into interpretation.”
“Repeating numbers are messages that you are receiving that can have a deeper meaning.”
“Sometimes falling off track is the track.”
“Number 2 can be seen as the coming together of souls or intuition.”
“Number 6 is very powerful and deals with a lot of karma.”
“When we try to separate science and energy, it's confusing.”
“The birth chart in numerology is like a manual.”
“Challenges are actually portals.”

What does it mean to walk your path? It means that you consciously and intentionally step more into who you truly are and have your life reflect the unique and wildly beautiful human that you already are.

When we live out of alignment with our soul path, we leak energy, betray our soul intentions and live an inner battle of conflicting emotions and disempowering actions. Sometimes it'll feel like you are swimming upstream when all you really desire is a life of fulfillment.

This week, I feel called to do a solo episode about the experience of knowing that life has changed you - in a myriad of big and small ways - and your life no longer flows like it once did.

It either feels sticky (a version of stuck) or it feels off-kilter, uninspiring and stale.

This very feeling prompted me to do my very own personal exfoliation – to scrub away what no longer fits the woman I have been so that I can stand in the newness of me and anchor in a much more aligned, soul-led self.

In this episode I walk you through a rather funny bank experience that got me thinking about the parts of my life that are on auto-pilot, even though the woman who created so much of my actions and rituals has “left the building”.

Maybe you can relate?

I share what I did for myself and for so many of my 1:1 coaching clients … and now offering to you. SYNERGY - A 7-day activation series for women who are ready to create heart-centered, soul-aligned forward motion in their life.

After two+ years of feeling stagnant and noticing that the details of your life have changed - you’ve changed and yet some (or many) of the details of your life are still aligned with the women you once were — not the one that is emerging right now.

Here’s your chance to intentionally scrub away what no longer fits and deeply align your thoughts and actions with what’s in your mind, body and spirit.

This activation series is designed for the woman who:

Feels stuck, sticky, heavy or off-track in her life, relationships, focus, business and sense of self. She is ready to create some momentum towards a fresh, aligned start.
AND also for the woman who craves a mid-year soulful check-in with self. She loves the energy of doubling down on clarity, inner connection and purpose.

SYNERGY is one week … one week of focus and collaboration with myself and other women who are ready to ask the questions you’ve been yearning to ask (and haven’t been able to articulate), drop what no longer fits you, clarify what you want to focus and grow in your life right now. There is a big portion of ACTIVATION in this week so that you are actually in forward motion.

We will be amazed what ONE week of FOCUSSED intention and aligned action will do for you. Over the course of FOUR live soul synergy sessions, I’ll teach and lead you through a process that will uncover, release, clarify, activate and amplify what’s in your soul into your lived experience. Each session will unlock a connection to your deep knowing and dismantle the barriers that have prevented you from being in flow with your path and purpose.

The path and purpose that serves YOU right here, right now.

We’ll continue the connection and collaboration in our private Telegram group where we’ll be active, on-the-daily for SEVEN full days. I encourage you to be LIVE for our online sessions but if you aren’t you’ll have full access to the recordings, the resources and the power of presence and connection in our group.

Think of this as being a KICK-START, an immersion of body, mind and soul – so that you can activate what sits in your soul into actualization.

The early bird pricing of $222 until October 7th [regular price is $299]

We begin Tuesday October 11th.

This episode is with Intentional Living Expert Megan Garland.

Meg is a married mom of 3 children who lives with her gang of goats, chickens, donkeys, and cows on a 7-acre homestead in the middle of rural Alberta. She considers herself a city girl turned country.

In the last couple of years, Meg’s life has radically changed.

She went from a businesswoman doing makeup tutorials online to a lifestyle where she butchers her own chickens, preps her own food, and recently, homeschools her kids. She feels like she has woken up to our deep and heavy reliance on systems — and is obsessed with learning how to become less reliant.

The world runs on systems - some of which are rooted in corruption.

She is proud to say that she has been able to free her family from having to rely so deeply — and she’s passionate about mentoring others in this process.

This is part of coming back to our roots, but also she shares very tangible things that we can all do to prep our home, health, finances, and all aspects of life so that we can liberate ourselves from the stress of knowing that we are so deeply connected to the big cog in the wheel of everything happening in the world.

Make sure that you have a piece of paper and a pen ready, because this episode is full of goodness.

In this episode:

How Megan is rejecting the systems and 9-5 life and living the life she is truly meant to live.
Being aware of the corruption in this world when it comes to the many systems and 3-letter agencies.
Building a community who can help you do the things that you do not know how to do.
The power of doing your own research and questioning everything.
How you can spend your money effectively.
Advice on prepping and where to start.
How you can start to become self sufficient in mind, body and health.

Key Quotes from Meg Garland:

“I was waking up so drastically to what I once knew to be true.”

“I was so desperate to find the truth and live a life of truth.”

“When you know better, you do better.”

“I want to live a life that we are all meant to live.”

“We are so reliant on outer sources that we just go with the flow.”

“We need more people asking questions.”

“You don't have to do things the way that everyone else is doing it.”

“What is genuinely a need, and what is a want.”

“No matter what happens, you are calm because you can take care of your family.”

“If you didn’t have internet, would you have a community?”

Meg’s bio:

I am a wife & mom of 3 littles. We live on a 7 acre homestead in central Alberta. We have goats, mini donkeys, cows, ducks & chickens. I am a full on city girl turned country. In the last couple years I started to wake up to the corruption in this world & started going down rabbit holes. My eyes were opened in many aspects & my priorities started to shift. I went from doing makeup tutorials to butchering my own chickens. I am obsessed with learning, researching, growing & evolving. I am a forever student who just wants to live my best life with my children & husband. To break away from the system & be able to provide for my family in all aspects without relying on the government or three letter agencies. I am obsessed with going back to our roots, ancestral living, holistic health & just living life the way it was always intended to be. Not this materialistic, consumer-driven lifestyle we are all sucked into today. My life has changed drastically in the last couple of years & it’s my passion to wake other people up, help them break away from the system/matrix per se & live their best life!

My guest this week is Meghan Telpner, a Toronto based author, nutritionist and Founder of the Academy of Culinary Nutrition. She has written two best selling books (both of which I have) and she is really a leader in a global community of culinary nutrition experts.

Today Meghan and I are talking all about heart coherence: what it is, how it came into Meghan’s life, and how she is using it to impact the lives of her community and beyond. Her journey to hear coherence is really a powerful one.

We are living in a time where resilience is low, tensions are high and patience is in the gutters. This topic and technique has the ability to change your brain and assist in better emotional regulation, lower stress levels, less reactivity, better cognitive function and deeper sleep — without needing to sit in meditation for extended periods of time.

Meghan shares how you can experience the positive effects in as little as 30 seconds.

And you already have everything you need RIGHT NOW to practice heart coherence ... she even walks you through the technique so that you can begin to integrate this into your life right now.

There are so many humans in a frozen state of fear right now. This is a time when inner harmony is so needed - I truly believe that the information that Meghan shares on this podcast can truly be life-changing for many.

In this episode:

Heart coherence: what it is, and how it came into Meghan’s life
How to practice heart coherence – a step-by-step instruction.
The research behind tapping into the power and the energetics of the heart.
Meghan has noticed that the way she interacts with others is now very grounded, softer and more genuine ever since she has integrated an ongoing practice of heart coherence into her life.
When we know that happiness comes from within, we are secure.
Find joy in your life. Meghan challenges us all to write down 5 things that brought us joy at the end of the day.

Key quotes from Meghan Telpner:

“By your own breathing and focus, you can bring your whole being to harmony where everything can function optionally.”

“Everyone needs to be in coherence.”

“If you can get into a coherence state, you are helping everyone around you.”

“Love, care, gratitude, and appreciation are the heart centered emotions.”

“Breathe in through the heart, out through the heart, and embody the emotions of love.”

“When we start to think about how we communicate via the heart, it changes the way that we go out into the world.”

“You can become a magnetic leader.”

“Compassion is the title wave emotion of humanity, but you cannot get there when you are in fear.”

“What we expose ourselves to is what we will become cemented in.”

“You need to cut off exposure to the things that trigger your fear.”

My guest this week is Dr. Andrea Ryan and where we go in this conversation is about the topic of living life and health differently.

Dr. Andrea is a retired chiropractor and an essential oil educator. She focuses primarily on helping people live a low tox lifestyle to improve their health and wellbeing.

We enter into this conversation into living life differently and how that came about for her, where it is leading her, the big bold moves that she is taking going forward, and how it has informed her in how she raises her children, and shows up in the work that she does.

When people decide that it is time to change their lifestyle and go low-tox, for many, the overwhelm sets in. We dismantle the overwhelm and talk about the simple way to start changing your life.

It starts with being conscious and open to change.

This conversation is timely and potent for anyone who is on the brink of wanting to do life differently, do health differently, and ultimately living a life that you love.

In this episode:

Dr. Andrea’s desire to travel and call to live a ‘different’ life.
How she combats the thoughts of not feeling unique even with her deep knowing that she is.
How Dr. Andrea began her journey to questioning things in life and making informed decisions.
How her love for learning new healing modalities launched her into a passion for essential oils.
How her knowledge and wisdom has impacted how she raised her children.
How Dr. Andrea and her family have surrounded themselves with a team of naturopaths, chiropractors and natural healers so they can heal their bodies in a natural way.
Leading by example for children.
How women and mothers can focus on healing their bodies with essential oils and a low toxicity life, while working through the overwhelm.

Key quotes from Dr. Andrea Ryan:

“I follow so many brave individuals that I sometimes feel like what I am doing does not compare, but then I remember that I am quite unique.”
“I live life by following my gut and intuition and trusting that things are going to work out.”
“I am like a sponge. When you give me a website, a book, a new idea I will absorb it. I just love it.”
“Our lifestyle plays such a huge factor in health.”
“We educate on what goes in and on our bodies and how that can impact our health in the long run.”
“It's shocking to me that we are conditioned to think ‘there is something that can make me feel better’ rather than thinking ‘why am I feeling like this in the first place?”
“It’s so easy to make little changes that lead up to big impacts.”
“If you have changed one thing every week, at the end of the year you have done 52 changes.

Today I have my very good friend and soul sister, Jenn Pike back on the podcast. You may know Jenn as the face of The Simplicity Sessions podcast.

She is a Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist, creator of the Hormone Project, Synced and the Audacious Woman as well as the author of multiple bestselling books and The Simplicity Sessions Podcast.

Whew … she’s a woman on fire and also, a woman who endeavors to walk through life with a genuine and authentic humanness about her.

Jenn and I have walked alongside each other for the past seventeen years. Our families are connected, our kids are connected, and our passions are aligned. Earlier this year, Jenn and I sat on her couch and with the energy of the full moon, we birthed something into creation: Women: Ready to Rise.

Women: Ready to Rise is an intimate 12 month container for the woman craving the energy and connection that emerges from being part of a collective RISE.

We are creating the space for women who are really ready to have a different level of conversation, who want to be in communication with other bold and authentic women, and have the desire to be truly seen in ways they may never have before. We are calling in women who want to support not only themselves but also other women to a new level and a deeper more integrated way of showing up in the world right now.

In this episode, we talk about what it means to RISE and how this is a conscious and unconscious energy that is flowing through women across the globe.

Jenn and I riff about why behind Women: Ready To Rise, the details of the program, and who it is truly for. If you are even remotely curious about what it means to rise, I welcome you to this conversation and this episode.

Women: Ready to Rise is currently open for registration. Details HERE. We begin on September 25, 2022. The first TEN women who register will receive a 30 min 1:1 Alchemy Session with Jenn and I.

Dr. Emma Whelpton is a Doctor of Chiropractic, a breathwork facilitator and a yoga instructor. If I had to sum up this episode, it would be about the unspoken energetics of healing.

Both Dr. Emma and I could come at this topic from the perspective of ‘what are all the things we can do TO the body to initiate healing’, but the real power we each hold is to deeply attune to the strength and wisdom that our bodies already have within – and leverage that.

Dr. Emma shares so many pearls of wisdom in this conversation – not just mindset nuggets, but also practical strategies that you can start to do more of in your life to help shift and change the felt experience in your body.

No one heals you. You heal you – and for most of us, we have yet to establish a conscious relationship with our inside healer.

In this episode:

Dr. Emma’s divinely guided journey to spirituality and health when she moved from Canada to Alabama at a young age.
The truth of healing and how it is not simply happening on the physical plane.
The role that energy has in every aspect of our lives and how you can better attune to what is happening within yourself by establishing a closer relationship with this part of you.
A mindset shift: small changes are often the most powerful. Not feeling like you need to change ‘everything’ to overhaul your health or make a difference in your body.
It’s not what you do once – it’s what you do repeatedly that moves the needle. Consistency trumps intensity every day of the week.
The advice Dr. Emma shares with her patients and clients in practice.
When a person is in pain, jumping into healing can be difficult and overwhelming. Answering the question, “where do I start?”
The power of breath and how it can change the tone of the nervous system to a place of enhanced healing and peace.
Cold plunging: why she dislikes it and why Dr. Emma makes it a part of her routine [BTW … it’s not just about the physiological benefit on the body].

Quotes from Dr. Emma Whelpton:

“Science is just supporting what yoga has been doing forever.”
“Healing is more than what shows up on a 1 to 10 pain scale.”
“Community and support are usually so overlooked when it comes to healing.”
“The belief that you need something externally to heal internally is wrong.”
“Consistency trumps intensity.”
“Every choice that you make leads to a result - good or bad.”
“We heal through our nervous system.”
“I put myself in moments of discomfort so in moments of stress I can find comfort.”
“There is transformation when you get past the discomfort of being in cold water.”

This week I am sitting down with Carly Ottaway, the owner and CEO of Web of Words, a boutique agency dedicated to helping entrepreneurs grow their businesses and expand their impact. Carly is a journalist turned copywriter turned agency owner, but this is really just a portion of who she truly is, despite the massive impact she is making on the world.

Our conversation is about the power of your voice and sharing your story. Storytelling is something we often think of as something we only do around the campfire or with our kids before bed, but storytelling is so much more than that.

It’s so much more powerful and so often completely underutilized.

Storytelling is a way to communicate, captivate and connect with other humans.

This is something that Carly teaches her entrepreneurial clients, but also is a big part of the way that she lives her life. She shares her voice, her story, her vulnerability, her triumphs, and all the feels in between.

Our stories are a form of sacred connection — something we can and should use personally and professionally.

In this episode, Carly talks about the evolution of her life and her story and her ability and desire to speak it into the world.

She also shares how it has led her from a place to control all the things, which I think is something that we all can relate to, to letting go, trusting and surrendering to the flow of life.

I felt deeply moved by this conversation. I sense that it is very important that we not only share who we are in our messiness and our becoming, but also in our success, our abundance and our expansion.

This episode feels very timely and lucky for us, Carly does not hold back with her story and her wisdom.

In this episode:

How Carly started her agency and her journey from being an employee to leaning into freelance work.
Carly’s experience through the pandemic, including growing her business with her husband, birthing her second child, having their house burn down, and finding their community to lean on.
Her transformation from ‘Carly the Copywriter’ to ‘Carly the Agency Leader.’
The benefits and struggles of working with your spouse.
The power of the “about you” page on your website, from a copywriting and storytelling perspective.
How to find the balance between our personality being intertwined with our business, and how we can use this to sell.
Personal branding and putting a face to a brand.
Not being afraid to share your story fully and show up messy/authentic.
Surrendering to the word surrender.
How Carly has navigated motherhood and entrepreneurship.

Quotes:

“We will figure it out. We always do.”
“People remember how you make them feel.”
“People want to work with people that they like, know and trust.”
“Storytelling is about connection.”
“We are not here to work with anyone and everyone. We are not here to serve anyone and everyone.”
“Surrendering doesn't mean not doing anything. Surrendering is about taking that best next step and trusting and believing.”
“I had to just trust that we will get where we need to be.”
“Get comfortable with getting uncomfortable with ourselves.”
“It is important to carve the path that is right for you.”
“Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is have an inner circle and speak to them.”
“I can only control what I can control.”
“Even if it does not come natural to you, it does not mean that you can't be successful with it.

This week I am dropping an episode with MJ Renshaw. This is a conversation I have been wanting to have for a while. I have really been tuning into how MJ has been moving through the world, and the kinds of offerings that she has been putting out into the universe.

In this conversation, we talk about the Being Method. Yes, you read that right. Being. This is a program and certification that MJ has created. It is all about the science of energy healing. It is about how cells work, how energy works and how emotions affect the body, but what I really find fascinating and why I wanted to have this conversation is because of her take on the concept of being.

Not doing. Not going. Not completing.

Being.

I think if there is anything that has gone on with the world, it is a shift of all of us wanting to be more in tune with the world, moving with more flow and having a presence in the way we want to show up. A shift to have what we are actually doing in the world make more sense to us. We want to be liberated and remove ourselves from the constraints of what others are doing or feeling or what the world is telling us to do.

This conversation is all about being. We dive into what this means for MJ, what spirituality means, how love is the supreme teacher, and the values that she embodies into the world. The thing that we talk about the most is her new program, the Being Abundant course. It is all about abundance including money and how we invest it in our lives.

If you want to simplify your life and focus on what is important to you, this is the episode for you.

In this episode:

The meaning of being.
What energy is and how we channel it through ourselves and others.
How MJ found freedom in her energy to be the person she wants to be.
How MJ blends together feminine and masculine energy.
How we can tune into our energetics.
How emotions actually affect our body and all of our organs, more than you may think.
Money is intertwined with every part of our lives, we discuss how when we fix our relationship with money, we can feel it in other parts of our lives.
The importance of women getting into finance.
The world is done with doing doing doing, we just want to be.
The concept of investing with our money - not just in stocks, but in where we spend our money and what we support with our money.

Quotes from MJ Renshaw:

Less doing, more being.
I am enough. I am here to learn.
Different organs hold different emotions.
Our thoughts react differently to different emotions.
Be careful what you are saying, your cells are listening. - Dr. Laura Foster
The world is a better place when we have everyone looking at problems for solutions.
Every term is open and you have to define it for yourself.
Money is just a thing.
At the end of my life, I would rather end up with less money because I was investing in things with my conscience, rather than lose my integrity along the way.
How I feel about myself is worth more than anything.
You need to live your life by design, not default.
Whatever you are investing in, grows. - Dr. Laura Foster

Today’s guest is my friend and colleague, Dr. Lynne Mouw - an Entrepreneur, Doctor of Chiropractic, Certified Strengths Finder, and Enneagram coach.

It felt like the right time to talk about the various assessments that exist: those based on personality, behavior, and even astrology. Do they depict who we are or do they pigeonhole us? How can we use them effectively so that they augment our lives - not hold us back?

I’m like you … I love diving into Human Design, Enneagram, Myers-Briggs, Strengths Finders, and more recently, Gene Keys. I think we are all innately curious about who we are and what makes us tick. Am I right?

Our topic today is about how to work with your gifts and discover your innate strengths so you can step into your zone of genius.

Dr. Lynne is quick to point out that “you are not your personality test, you are not your strengths test, you are not even your enneagram test, but these tools are such important ways to find out get some insight to accept parts of yourself so you sink into who you already are in the core of your being.”

What I love about Dr. Lynne’s perspective is the way in which we can use these tests to see ourselves … truly see ourselves - and ultimately accept ourselves. It’s the reason she coaches individuals, couples, and executive teams to see their results in a more wholistic way - to help communication, build bridges, capitalize on our strengths and build stronger, more effective teams and relationships.

Dr. Lynne is also deeply passionate about helping women find their identity and passions in their midlife. This has resulted in a co-creation with Dr. Brooke Stillwell: Life After Kids. Be sure to check out what these two docs are doing over on their social media and website. It's brilliant.

This episode is about having the courage to be who you are on any level - and that’s something you know I will create space to talk about every single day.

In this episode:

How to identify your strengths and weaknesses, and what they can teach us about ourselves.
We each have unique talents and gifts, but often we don’t have the language or the self awareness to know exactly how we best show up to contribute to the world.
Aligning your teams as a leader, how to figure out the strengths and weaknesses, as well how to embrace them.
How Dr. Lynne helps mothers with adult children find their sense of new purpose.
Finding your purpose and identity in your midlife.

Quotes from Dr. Lynne:

As leaders, people are our biggest assets.
The best thing we can do is not project our filters onto others.
This part of life can be very isolating.
You just have to take one small, but a meaningful step at a time.
If we are not growing, we are actively dying. There is no stasis.

Dr. Lynne bio:

Hi! I’m Dr. Lynne. I’m a strategic thinker, reluctant entrepreneur (there’s a good story there), voracious traveler and a passionate mom, chiropractor and wife.

Born and raised in Newfoundland, Canada, I should be living a quiet, unchallenged life in my little hometown, but instead I heard a little voice deep inside that told me I was destined for something else and listened to it. Despite previously never having a chiropractic adjustment, I packed up and moved to Davenport, Iowa (talk about culture-shock) to begin chiropractic school and the best life path for me that I could have ever imagined.

Along that walk I met my amazing and talented husband Mark, who is also a chiropractor. We started a new practice from scratch, learning quickly what it means to be married as well as business partners. I’ve spent the last 20 years with a passion for building a world class team whose mission it is to go out into the world every day to equip and empower people to make better health decisions and to live a clearer and more connected life through Chiropractic care and natural living. Lots of mistakes, tears and animated discussions later, we have built one of the busiest chiropractic practices in the country and at the same time, an impenetrable partnership and epic love story.

Does that sound cheesy?

Maybe it is, but we get asked all the time what our secret is.

Here’s my answer: I can honestly say a huge amount of my personal and professional success can be attributed to having Crystal-Clear Clarity around what my Strengths are but also what the Strengths of those closest to me are. This means having an actual language to decode, describe and communicate these Strengths when it mattered most. It means intentionally and purposefully finding out what you are THE best at doing and what truly brings you joy and fulfillment. It means really seeing your spouse or your children and understanding on a deeper level their motivations and why the behave the way they do. I’ve invested years and thousands of dollars in learning this language and I am passionate about developing systems to teach and coach others to learn to use it in their relationships with themselves and others.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and look deeper. Here’s to making that next phase of life the best it could and should be, together.

“Pick something today that you aren’t just able to do; find something God made you to do, and then do lots of that.” - Bob Goff

Marni and Chris Gillis celebrate the best dating and relationship tips gleaned from the finale of Love Island and the new Bachelorette. If you haven’t finished bingeing on Love Island yet, you will hear some spoilers.

Dating takeaways from this episode:

Overcoming relationship challenges
Repairing trust
Building connections
The issues that come from taking things personally
Becoming rejection-proof

Love Island Recap

Spoiler Alert — If you are still watching Love Island episodes on Hulu, skip ahead to the Bachelorette recap!

One of the reasons Marni likes Love Island is that for eight weeks the couples get a chance to build connections, resolve conflicts, repair trust, and set boundaries. Few other reality shows allow couples to have this extended time together and it mirrors what we all might experience in real-life dating.

The last few episodes highlight how struggles or bumps in the road can bring couples closer together. It is how they navigate the conflict and resolve it that allows for a stronger bond on the other side.

Tasha and Andrew were great examples of the transformation that can happen when couples are there for each other. Tasha no longer pines for external validation because Andrew fought for her.

When dating you will encounter people who judge your choices. Having healthy boundaries and trusting your gut can help you through.

The Bachelorette

Fortunately, The Bachelorette updated the show’s format, which makes it watchable again. Marni and Chris discuss the major differences between Gabby and Rachel. Marni points out that Gabby has obviously been doing personal development work yet both ladies are leaking a bit. Chris reminds us that no matter what happened in the past it is important to hang in there and never give up.

Personal development work helps all aspects of life including dating and relationships.

This season reminds us how important it is to give a new relationship some space. If we are always trying to rule a guy out we may be missing out on a high-quality guy.

Asha is the best-selling author of You Are The Medicine: 13 Moons of Indigenous Wisdom, Ancestral Connection, and Animal Spirit Guidance. She has also guided thousands of people through profound and lasting transformations.

I have been a recipient of Asha’s work on so many levels over the years. I have sat in circles and ceremonies to receive Asha's wisdom, healing, love, and transformation.

Her work is very profound and I could not be more excited about this conversation as she weaves together how she got to where she is and the season of life she is in now.

We talk about how as entrepreneurs we have had to channel a lot of our masculine energy - with creating, launching, marketing, and serving clients and the community for many years. It’s a lot and not something we want to approach in the ways we each have done for several decades to date. We talk about how to create something that feels good to you and is overall sustainable - while having the impact you desire...

We also dip into the idea of sacred reciprocity of giving AND also asking for and receiving what we need.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Indigenous medicine and how everyone can connect with their own medicine.
The process of writing a book.
The emotional seasons in life and how to process and move through them.
How motherhood transformed Asha’s desires in life.
Navigating the feeling of directionlessness in certain seasons of life.
Unwinding from societal expectations of the request for Indigenous People to educate others.
Resisting the “go go go” mentality and creating something sustainable – a NEW way.
Speaking out against capitalism and colonialism.
The release of Asha’s upcoming Sacred Medicine Oracle cards - order here

Quotes from Asha:

“I felt pressure to show up in ways that are not aligned with my ancestors.”
“When you invite people into knowing better and doing better… the majority of people want to step up and meet that.”
“Every season has equal importance.”
“What if it could be easy?”
“My biggest return on investment is investing my love and energy into relationships.”
“I am entitled to take up space.”

My guest today is Sarah Swain and I’m pretty sure I called in this conversation on every level in the quantum field. I really wanted to have a conversation with her. Sarah is the woman, the Founder + CEO, the force and the heart behind the companies and the IG presence of ‘I AM Sarah Swain’, Trailblazer Media Group and Business With Sarah.

In 2017 Sarah was thinking “why does life feel so bad?” After a strong desire for change, she quit her job and started on her path to create a better life. She saw other people do it, so she knew that she could do it as well and jumped head first into entrepreneurship as a Business Strategist and creator of two publishing houses.

She hated the concept of trading time for money.

Sound familiar? You aren’t the only one with these feelings…

Sarah now teaches other people how to “Monetize Your Mind” and break free from the constraints of corporations, government and ‘the system.’

Alongside wanting to change the way we think about work and making money, Sarah is also on a mission to change the way that people think about politics. Sarah started Trailblazer Media, an organization dedicated to leaving behind a trail of truth, so our future generations never again have to wonder what actually happened, and have a fighting chance to ensure the history we are living and breathing today, doesn't repeat itself.

Truth be known - before I met Sarah I tolerated Canadian politics.

Somewhere along the way of hearing her simplify the process of the political system and energize the possibility that my efforts would make a difference, I began to get truly involved. And this is one of the gifts I’ve seen in Sarah. She has a knack for being able to make the complex very simple - inspiring and rallying people to learn, care and action on our politicians and our system.

Talk about alchemizing the negative into a rising tide of change!

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Sarah’s journey from hating her corporate life to becoming a multi-passionate entrepreneur and activist.
Challenging what you know, and seeing it from a new perspective.
Security only exists within yourself, not a job, not another person, only within yourself.
Unlearning the traditional process of only finding financial stability through a corporate job.
How to empower yourself and your family to live and think more sovereignly.
Discovering areas of your life where you have made yourself unnecessarily vulnerable.
How to shift the political playing field.
Why believing “everything is over and all is as it should be”, is a mistake.
The real responsibility of the people in a democracy.
Where to find news, when mainstream media isn't always truthful.
Overcoming the belief that your one voice and one action won’t make a difference.
How speaking your truth will help you will find your community.

Quotes from Sarah Sarah:

“It's very interesting how life happens when you listen to those nudges.”

“When you have an urge, you have to listen to it. It doesn't mean it's easy, but the reward is worth it.”

“The power of choice is something that has been weaponized over a variety of issues.”

“You can live your life in a radically different way that we have been programmed to believe that it is supposed to be.”

“Security only exists within yourself.”

“We have to do right by each other.”

“I had to let myself be seen.”

“What are the hills you are willing to die on? Those are your core values.”

“We need more people speaking in bold ways.”

Sue McCreadie, MD (aka Dr. Sue), is a Pediatric Physician and Breakthrough Coach for Women. For over two decades she has helped thousands achieve vibrant health as a wellness expert, but what most people don’t realize is that she struggled with her own health, especially as a mama. Dr. Sue talks about how it took years for her to overcome her physical challenges and master the mental-emotional game to break through and truly heal (and it’s still a work in progress).

I originally met Dr. Sue when she asked me to be a contributing speaker in her extraordinarily successful online summit called: Mama Own Your Health. You’ll understand within moments why we have become friends-on-fire ever since.

What I love about Dr. Sue is that she gets vulnerable right from the beginning of this episode – sharing moments where she felt low and doubtful about the impact she is making on the world. She acknowledges the times she has felt deep levels of unworthiness - which you would never believe was possible when observing her from afar.

Relatable … right?

Dr. Sue speaks about her path to finding her second calling in life: helping mamas on a deeper level as a Breakthrough Coach.

Dr. Sue shares that her tough times in life, including moments of imposter syndrome and a series of traumatic miscarriages, have shaped who she is today. In this space and time, she is able to appreciate everything she has gone through.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Overcoming moments where we feel unworthy.
Dr. Sue’s journey from going from a physician to a breakthrough coach for women.
Struggling with not feeling like “enough.”
Feeling imposter syndrome and doom after not doing “enough” in business.
Recognizing behavioral patterns in our own lives to understand when the negative thoughts enter our minds.
Channeling your inner female and male energy in business.
Prioritizing yourself in stressful situations, even as a mama in charge of others.
How she has always followed her heart - even when it goes against her professional industry.
Having multiple miscarriages and healing through this experience.
Journey to finding her second calling.

Quotes:

“I am committed to living my soulful purpose, no matter how messy it is.” - Dr. Sue

“Ten years of head schooling was followed by ten years of heart schooling.” - Dr. Sue

“Your greatest mess is actually the greatest opportunity and the gift you bless other people with.” - Dr. Sue

In this solo episode, Dr. Laura shares her personal experience of what her journey of awakening has been like over the past couple of years. She drops right into the truth of her experience - the ‘awakening’ to the illusions of the world and to the truth of her life. Also, the awakening to what’s possible, what’s right here and who she is becoming in the process.

Maybe you’ve felt an awakening within you?

OR

You are simply curious to what this may mean in your life?

Either way - this is the theme of this episode and it’s here for your contemplation or confirmation. Something tells me many of you are on this path and will appreciate the candor of this topic and episode.

[BTW - If you like this episode, you are invited to a live free zoom event led by Dr. Laura on Tuesday, July 19, 2022: The Awakening Gathering. In this gathering we are going way deeper on this topic - including integrating new ways of leading, supporting and being]

Dr. Laura is a firm believer that speaking her truth is part of her soul’s path. She shares this piece of comfort - just remember, you are not yourself right before a new beginning.

What you will hear in this episode:

Dr. Laura’s definition and personal experience of awakening.
She reads a short Instagram post that landed deeply with her audience and inspired this discussion to become a podcast episode. [And also an upcoming free Zoom event with Dr. Laura on Tuesday, July 19, 2022: The Awakening Gathering].
The importance of finding what is deeply important to oneself and staying true to it.
Autostereograms: what they are and how they inspired her to get out of the chaos and details of life so that she could connect with her Higher Truths.
How her awakening to life has allowed her to move more into “flow” and less trying to hyper control what’s around her.
How grief has been a recurring theme for her as she has chosen to allow illusions to fall away. Through this journey a lot of emotions have come up, including the feelings of deep sadness and the need to let go.
The difference between “The Truth” vs “My Truth”
We are our humanness … more than our humanness. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
How to support others going through their own awakening journey.
Dr. Laura’s personal awakening calling: to surrender more and gripping less.

Quotes:

“I celebrate my inability to tolerate BS.”

“I invest my time and energy into the world I want to live in.”

“I would rather be shunned for who I am, than loved for who I am not.”

“We are where we are.”

“You are not yourself, right before a new beginning.”

“You may be feeling like you are sipping in the truth of life through a firehose.”

“You are the personal authority on your truth.”

“I cannot un-see what I see, and un-hear what I hear.”

“My inner knowing is my true north.”

“I know what I know and if I don't know something right now, I don't need to know.”

The Awakening Gathering: Tuesday, July 19th @ 4:30 pm PT / 7:30 pm ET

The Awakening Gathering for women who are curious about the path of awakening and for those who are consciously claiming their awakening. Here's how the session will flow:

Open the sacred gathering.
Lead a discussion about what awakening is and what it is for me.
Reflection on how it may look and feel and what comes up for you in this process (even if you aren't sure you are experiencing an awakening).
How you can support yourself along this path.
How to deepen into the surrender and anchor into a lightness of being.
Conversation + closing of the sacred gathering.

We will use breath work (gentle pranayama) and Emotional Freedom Technique Tapping to support the process. Session led by Dr. Laura Foster | Soul Inspired Gurl.

Shannon is a multi-passionate, creative entrepreneur who wears many titles: photographer. business mentor. brand influencer - to name a few.

In this episode Shannon talks about her journey through her 20s of trying different business ventures, finding what truly makes her happy, and how she has overcome the opinions of others.

Philip McKernan is an author, speaker, filmmaker, and coach, but he’s more than his titles. Dr. Laura heard Philip speak a few years ago, and the overwhelming vibration of resonance spoke to her so much that she knew she would work with him in some capacity one day - which she has! Philip talks about his Brave Soul program and why he believes the path to a happy and fulfilling life is found in the meaning we drive in life, work, our relationship with others, and the most important relationship of all — the one with oneself. Dr. Laura and Philip talk about what it means to be courageous and embrace your gift, how to step into your artistry, and how our biggest gift is sometimes right next to our deepest wound. Philip shares what it means to him to be brave, and what happens when we embody our gifts in the most meaningful way possible.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Dr. Laura talks about her own experience seeing Philip speak in a crowd of 3,000 and how it changed the course of her life.
Philip talks about what bravery and courage mean to him, and how he acts as a facilitator for others to step into their own courage.
This work isn’t easy, and Philip has his share of people feeling resistance and strong emotions towards him, as they reveal some hard truths that may require them to take a deep look at their life.
How Philp has learned to sit in the big emotions of others and hold space for them.
Philip acts as a mirror so others can do the work and have tremendous breakthroughs. He shows up in a way that allows others to be unpolished and vulnerable.
Philip opens up about his own challenges and vulnerabilities as someone who can channel and facilitate.
How we can doubt our "gifts" and how those who often most doubt our gifts are the ones that are closest to us. As we lean into our gifts, it can remind others that they are staying the same.
How talents are different than gift.
We can often protect ourselves to the point where we die with the greatest expression of our artistry still left in our souls.

Quotes:

“I'm the father you didn't have. I’m the job you should have taken. I’m the life you aren’t living.” — Philip
“I believe we are all artists in a very deep way.” — Philip
“I think deeply all of us want some type of radical simplicity in our lives.” — Philip
“Most of us have families that want us to be happy. But most of us have families that don't want us to change.” - Philip
“Sometimes the way I play with discovering my gift is by not asking those closest to me, but by asking other people who are further from my inner circle and may simply brush up against me in the work that I do in the world.” — Dr. Laura
“Gifts always have an element of impact to them in it.” — Philip
“I don’t think you can fail when you lean into your gift.” — Philip

Philip McKernan: Website | Brave Soul

Philip works with entrepreneurs and business leaders all over the world. When people are seeking clarity about their future or want to move through roadblocks, seen and unseen, they call Philip. As a speaker, he has inspired and challenged the Canadian Olympic Team and The Pentagon to name a few. He is also the founder and is spearheading the One Last Talk™ movement.

He helps people get clear on who they are and where they need to go. He helps them transition in their personal and professional lives so people feel aligned in all areas of life. Philip believes who and what we do “off the ice” has a huge impact on our results “on the ice.” His groundbreaking Team Deepening™ work with organizations gives teams a refreshing way to connect and build real and collective resilience.

What separates Philip from a lot of coaches, speakers, and gurus is originality. He brings new conversations to the table and spends an obscene amount of time thinking and challenging the status quo, instead of simply repackaging business & life-hacking strategies. Philip McKernan is a philosopher, a modern-day philosopher of the human experience. His pioneering philosophy around SoulSet™ equips and empowers people to uncover their gifts and impact the world.

With a knack for getting into all sorts of scenarios — he’s caddied in golf for the President of Ireland, been chased and nearly killed by a bull elephant in Nigeria. and made wine in Australia. He has traveled to 80 countries around the globe, built an orphanage in Peru, written five books despite being dyslexic, and created his first documentary film called Give & Grow. The film explores how the gift of giving makes us feel more worthy and alive. It also explores the science behind the impact of giving on our emotional well-being, our mental health, our physiology, and our businesses.

Philip believes the path to a happy and fulfilling life is found through the meaning we derive in life through the WORK we do, our relationship with OTHERS, and the most important relationship of all, the one with one’s SELF.

Dr. Laura welcomes entrepreneur and brand photographer Nat Caron to the podcast. Nat opens up for a beautiful conversation on the unspoken experience of healing yourself and witnessing the journey that unfolds throughout your life. She talks about how doing her own inner work led her to write letters to the younger versions of herself, and the lessons that came forth from this experience. Nat and Dr. Laura talk about how to get unstuck from the core stories we form about ourselves in our formative years, and why we should normalize conversations just like these. Also, Dr. Laura shares her experience in working with Nat, and how her photography shifted her own identity and opened up even more personal and professional potential.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Why Nat feels so passionately about being a mentor for young women.
Often times the younger versions of ourselves have unhealed parts. What does she need to hear?
Nat talks about a passionate idea she has about a book in the making — and what she tells her younger self as she writes letters to a version of her former self.
No matter what age we are, there is a sacred relationship with parents and parental figures, and we hold what they say with great importance. The version of ourselves and the stories we see about money, work, love, etc. can stay with us for our whole life on a subconscious and conscious level.
Nat shares how she talks with her children to form an open perspective and support them in building their own foundation of confidence and self-love.
Instead of feeling the need to have our life plan all figured out, what are you called to do at this moment, or just a few months out?
We need to give permission to ourselves to heal, not ask somebody else for permission to heal.

Quotes:

“I feel like there's just a level of connection with women, and I feel very called to mentor younger women.” — Nat
“The younger versions of ourselves are sometimes unhealed.” — Dr. Laura
“Asking someone what they do is not the same as asking someone who they are, what they care about, or what they're passionate about.” — Dr. Laura
We need to give permission to ourselves to heal, not ask somebody else for permission to heal.” — Nat

Nat Caron — Brand Photographer in Barrie, ON, Canada: Website | Instagram | Facebook

Nat taught herself how to take photographs. Her life became a collection of moments captured and developed and kept in a little shoebox — photos of friends, family, animals, and all kinds of everyday adventures. Then when she moved to the city she developed a whole new interest in architecture. She shot buildings from all kinds of angles and became enchanted with the busy strangers in the city streets.

When her father died, she dug out one of the photos from the box. In the picture, her father was laughing hysterically. That was exactly who he was. She felt like she was transported right back to that moment in time. That’s when she knew what she wanted to do. She wanted to create images that people don’t just see — they experience. To capture the authentic personality of the people and the brands featured in her photographs.

Nat specializes in headshots, lifestyle, products, and architecture. Her studio is located in Barrie, Ontario, Canada.

Dr. Laura welcomes Melanie Huestis - a self described Energy Alchemist who has the gift of helping you transmute your mess into magic on the soul level. Melanie talks about how she first knew she had the gift of clairvoyance and how she embraced it personally and professionally to be able to work her gifts and skills with clients one-on-one and in her group membership, Collective Magic. Melanie answers very practical questions about how to find and connect with your intuition, how to find your intuitive “yes” and “no,” how to develop your intuition and what your intuition is really there for. They also talk about Spirit, self-acceptance and what our soul purpose is (haven’t you always wanted that question answered?!). This is a very grounding and affirming episode for those who are wanting to be deeper in relationship with their light, their dark and everything in between. What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Melanie is an Energy Alchemist. Everything she does in her work is either connected to Spirit or intuitively based.
Whatever it is you think you want help with comes down to you needing someone to see you, hear you, and hold space for you. We just want our experience validated.
How we can begin to tune in and tap into communicating with Spirit.
The difference between instinct and intuition.
Intuition is this beautiful, intangible knowing that lies between our basic instinct and our higher-process thinking.
How you can begin to recognize what your energy feels like in its neutral state and find your “yes” and “no” response.
What ancestral trauma is and how you can begin to heal.
Melanie and Dr. Laura talk about the call for more Sisterhood and getting back to a slower and more connected way of life.
Melanie talks about her Collective Magic Group and the deep-rooted healing that comes from working with other powerful women.

Quotes:

“If we have the habit of constantly looking outside ourselves for the answer, then we'll skip over the subtle and powerful messages of our own body that is constantly talking to us.” — Dr. Laura
“If you don't ever pause to ponder, you won't have that awareness and then you will just keep thinking that life is happening to you.” — Dr. Laura
“When you do what makes you happy and you are following your purpose, you will go out into the world in a completely different energy, a completely different way. Every single person you interact with is going to feel that and they're going to shift a little bit. That is how we change the world.” — Melanie
“When you take your power back and when you see yourself for who you are, you are unstoppable.” — Melanie
“You have all of the help you’ve ever hoped for and every answer you've ever wanted to know all around you, and if you're not opening, asking, and listening, you're not going to get it.” — Melanie

In this solo episode, Dr. Laura explores what it means to her to have courage and the spectrum of how being brave and bold looks and feels in her own life. She shares personal examples of where she has had to step up and face her fears in her own life and talks about how courage looks different for everyone. She also examines what may be at stake if you don’t embrace your courage and the cost of staying stagnant and smaller than you are truly meant for. If you are seeking motivation to more boldly face your fears and step into the “you” that you’ve been dreaming of, this is the episode for you.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

We are so quick to point out the courage in others, yet minimize our own courageous experience.
How launching this podcast was an exercise in embracing courage, and what lessons it taught her along the way.
Start exactly where you are and practice your courage where it’s easier and safer. This will help you gain more confidence to show up for the more difficult experiences.
Courage can and will look different for everyone. What is natural to one person may be a big deal to someone else. And as you practice being brave you will find that what was once difficult is now easy.
Courage can show up in your words, actions, or even just staying consistent in the face of disappointment or adversity.
Courage is the by-product of taking action. Take the step and make the move and in doing so, you gain the confidence that creates the courage. Action and outcome become proof that you are indeed courageous — something that you will rely on as you move forward in life with more courage and bravery.
Instead of wishing to be fearless, aim to feel your fear, but do it anyway.
What is the cost of you choosing not to be courageous and go after what you want? What is the cost of letting your fear win?
What you admire in others, and what you identify as courage, exists within you. “Soham” — I am that.
Start where it feels like the safest place to express more of yourself.

Quotes:

“We often forget that we develop courage within ourselves by showing up for the small things. When we show up for the small things that we find difficult to do, we prove to ourselves that we can do it.” — Dr. Laura
“I do not seek fearlessness in my life, but to practice stepping forward alongside my fear.” — Dr. Laura
“If the rules we give ourselves prevent us from showing up in life, then they're not the right rules.” — Dr. Laura
“What you admire in others, and what you identify as courage, exists within you.” — Dr. Laura

Dr. Laura welcomes Vanessa Grutman, Entrepreneur, Integrated Health Practitioner, and Co-Founder of Project Skin MD. Vanessa talks about her recent big cross-country move back to Québec with her family, and why she decided to follow her calling to not only relocate but connect deeply with Mother Nature. She and Dr. Laura talk about the shift in feminine energy that is leading more women to follow their inner calling, and they provide some small steps for starting to connect with your inner wisdom if you feel like it’s been quieted or shut down. Vanessa explains the importance of detoxing - both physically and energetically and how it’s different from a cleanse. She also provides resources on how to join her online community and her 7-day seasonal detox that begins June 13th.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Vanessa talks about her decision to move back to Quebec, and how the pandemic created a space for stillness and contemplation that led her to really be called back to nature.
Nature’s wisdom is a powerful healer. Humans are designed by nature to be in synchronicity with our environment.
The call to nature can happen in big, sweeping ways, but it can also happen in small ways. Start where you are. Even just going out for a daily walk can be a beginning point.
Vanessa talks about what an Integrative Health Coach does, and how you may benefit from working with one.
We are the sum of all our choices, whether they are high-quality ones that move us forward or ones that keep us stuck and held back.
Detoxing is all about eliminating. If you are just adding things, you are just flooding your system back with what’s been stored in your body.
Vanessa shares why doing a seasonal detox can help you become in harmony with nature and your outside world and restore your liver.
Vanessa talks about learning to have at least the same compassion for herself that she gave to others.

Quotes:

“When we vibrate at a higher frequency, we are better humans. We are better citizens, we are better mothers, and we are better parents.” — Vanessa
“With two young kids, we felt like we needed to slow down. It was just this deep calling that we had to listen to.” — Vanessa
“You can’t give from an empty vessel.” — Vanessa
“I feel like it always starts with that awareness. The minute we realize we can be doing this a different way is the minute we open up the door to a new reality.” — Dr. Laura
“It’s part doing, but it's also part being, it's who you're being in your life that often creates the most change.” — Dr. Laura
“The journey makes you who you are.” — Vanessa
“Who you're surrounding yourself with is a form of medicine.” — Dr. Laura

Drs. Heather and Laura are long-time colleagues with a thirty+ year sacred friendship which is evident by the depth of their connection. Dr. Heather shares how she knew it was time to move on from her busy and successful chiropractic practice to become a keynote speaker for large companies such as Microsoft and how career fate takes us to strange and wonderful places we would never expect.

Dr. Heather dives into common roadblocks of success and shares strategies for moving past perfectionism and the feeling of Imposter Syndrome.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Dr. Heather shares the lessons she learned from switching from running a brick-and-mortar business to one solely online.

When you find a subject you are passionate about, people can tell it’s coming from your heart.
Heather’s favorite dinner subject is talking about how the fate of our careers leads us through all the twists and turns in life and gives us perspectives and skills that serve us in the present.
What we see on the outside, or highlight reel, of someone’s life, is often very different from what is happening behind the scenes.
Create a “permission list” for yourself that serves as a contract to show up, even when you are afraid and self-conscious.
Having compassion for yourself helps you show up to bigger things.
Perfectionism can be a form of procrastination and a way we protect ourselves to stay safe.
It’s great to be informed of the world around you, but don’t let the outside world take away your inner authority and inner sense of freedom.
Dr. Heather talks about the importance of making big bold moves and surrounding yourself with people who do the same.

Quotes:

“Success leaves clues.” — Dr. Laura
“Inner authority, as I like to say, is somewhat separate from what's going on in the world. Don’t give it away.” — Dr. Heather
“It's not by chance that you're standing in the place you are right now.” — Dr. Laura
“We have to keep remembering that we have a unique gift to offer the world. We have a responsibility to share it, and it doesn't have to be perfect.” — Dr. Heather
“When we fail, we learn.” — Dr. Heather
“Having compassion for yourself helps you show up to bigger things.” — Dr. Laura

She also reminds you that although we each have our own unique experiences, you are not alone in having moments or periods of discomfort, pain, disappointment, and sadness. What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Dr. Laura shares a recent occasion when her life didn’t turn out the way she imagined. She explains the depth of her disappointment around it.
Making sure she created space to feel what she was feeling so that she could truly heal through what was happening and not bypass the experience.
We all encounter feelings of shame, no matter how much we’ve grown or ascended in our personal journey.
The gift of self-compassion is one of the most incredible experiences that you can give yourself. If you’re going to accept the downside of a situation, you need to also accept the gift — even if that place takes some time to get to.
To move through disappointment, you need to know the story and the meaning you are giving it.
Dr. Laura talks about how to reframe the data points around what you perceive to be a setback or disappointing event.

Quotes:

“There is the only way through a process like this and through an experience like this, and it’s to feel your way forward.” — Dr. Laura
“We don’t see life as it is, we see life as we are.” — Dr. Laura
“You need to accept the gift of it, too. There is an opportunity in there for you to look and reframe the meaning you are giving it.” — Dr. Laura
“In the reframing and acknowledgment and understanding, I now have this situation that went for quite a long time in my life that has become my gift. It’s the deep sensitivity I developed.” — Dr. Laura
“If you’re going to accept the shit of a situation, you need to also accept the gift. This became the way that I reframed the data points.” — Dr. Laura
“I started to pull on the threads of that reality and reframed a more complete holistic story for myself to create a new reality.” — Dr. Laura

Chanti Zak is the creator of the Empathy Marketing Ecosystem, co-host of The Entrepreneur’s Ecosystem Podcast and a quiz funnel strategist and coach that is obsessed with getting brag-worthy results for her students and clients. Chanti joins the podcast to talk with Laura about authenticity, the framework for how she shows up in her business, and the similarities between a diverse agricultural ecosystem and business. She talks about the shift in her professional and personal life once she learned to pause and provides great resources for upping your marketing and customer outreach. Chanti and Laura share the ‘realness’ about running a business during a time of societal upheaval, and how saying “no” can open us up to more of our “yes.”

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Finding your audience and making sure they feel seen and heard is so critical to success in business and marketing.
When you out yourself and really get specific on what you provide and who you provide it for, that’s when things start to shift.
Chanti talks about her work as a Growth Coach and Quiz Funnel Strategist, and how that helps her clients grow and share their voices.
Chanti and Dr. Laura talk about a way of approaching the creative process that also lets in more of the feminine divine, where we don’t have to rely solely on masculine energy.
Chanti talks about co-creating her dream life with her husband and living off her homestead with her family.
Nature and permaculture have many similarities to branding and business.
You can’t outsource self-growth and face what you need to do to get a more aligned and abundant version of yourself.
Chanti shares the top things she sees stopping entrepreneurs from their own success.
As you move forward and grow, your brain will want to get caught in the past. It’s important to say no to some things, so you can say yes to others.

Quotes:

“Instead of talking about what the title is of what I do, I would talk about what it is that I provide for people.” — Dr. Laura
“Part of the creative process of birthing something new is that you don’t get Spring without Winter.” — Chanti
“Build your own connection with your self-awareness so that you know what success truly is, and what you are striving for when you are striving.” — Dr. Laura
“What can I say no to, so that I can say yes to something else?” — Chanti
“You can’t abdicate the responsibility of yourself to anyone.” — Dr. Laura
“You can't outsource your problems, your struggles, and your personal stuff that you just have to face and sit with and work through.” — Chanti
“Everything that you create and show up for the world is an extension of you. So start with that in mind: The relationship you have with yourself forms the basis for the relationship of everything you do in the world.” — Dr. Laura

This week's episode is all about tapping and manifestation and how we need to release in order to receive. She brings on Jackie McDonald, creator of the MacDonald Manifestation Method, a Certified Advanced EFT practitioner. Jackie and Dr. Laura discuss what exactly EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is and why tapping is such a potent tool to release negative emotions, beliefs, and patterns and navigate you towards manifesting your best self. They talk about the recalibration that happens in your nervous system during a tapping session and how this activates your inner knowing. Jackie also shares how tapping gets in there at a subconscious level and soothes our brain, getting us unstuck from the patterns and behaviours that hold us back.

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

EFT, or the Emotional Freedom Technique, is often referred to as tapping. Jackie and Dr. Laura talk about why this healing tool is so potent to both clear traumas from the past and set you up for manifesting your future.
Proof that when you are ready, the teacher appears.
Jackie talks about how she found EFT after a very traumatic period when she was just 19, and it helped her clear up debilitating physical symptoms.
With EFT, you can release physical symptoms, beliefs, and the stories you tell yourself that hold you back.
Jackie shares some inspirational client stories who used EFT to get their life back on track and heal in unimaginable ways.
Tapping is safe and empowering because the client leads.
EFT taps on acupressure points, which connect through our nervous system much like a highway system. When we have trauma and stored emotions, those points can become blocked. EFT helps free up our energy from a deep and subconscious level.
Jackie walks us through a few of the prompts she uses on her clients so that they become the person they dream of being, in a relatively short amount of time.
Jackie shares her mission to bring the healing tool of tapping to underserved communities, and to empower women all over the globe.

Quotes:

“Serendipity always rewards the prepared.” — Jackie
“We don’t perceive life as it is, we perceive life as we are, and that is filtered through the nervous system.” — Dr. Laura
“When you are ready, the teacher appears.” — Jackie
“You have to release in order to receive.” — Jackie
I think there's such grace in tapping because it goes at your pace.” — Dr. Laura
“Tapping is a portal into your soul in a way that is different than things like Reiki or counseling because you’re literally using your own voice and your own words.” — Jackie
“Honoring is a big part of my tapping practice. It's not just where you’re going, but who you’ve become along the way.” — Jackie

It’s a heartfelt episode this week with Keli Carpenter, Transformational Coach, Chopra Center certified Transcendental Meditation Instructor, connected breathwork facilitator, and the founder of The Other Side of Average — Therapy for the Soul. Keli shares how she encountered meditation at the young age of six and has been using it as a tool ever since. She and Dr. Laura talk about how meditation can help bring stillness and clarity into our soul, the power of breathwork, and standing in your truth even when the world wants you to feel something else. Keli also discusses the importance of self-compassion, why the world is calling out for Unity Consciousness, and the five steps behind her Somatic Inquiry Process.

How to observe the stories we tell ourselves, so we can ultimately evolve past them.

How to bring in more compassion for yourself.
How truth resonates in Keli’s body.

Bio for Keli:

Keli is no stranger to mind, body, and spirit awareness. She first started practicing transcendent meditation at the age of six, when her mother took her to learn Transcendental Meditation® (TM®) and was re-certified at the age of 25. Keli is now a Chopra Center Certified Transcendent Meditation (PSM®) Instructor, Conscious Relationship, Uncoupling and Parenting Coach, and Conscious connected Breathwork Facilitator and Mentor. Keli is the Founder of “The Other Side of Average – Therapy for the Soul” and transformational coach. Her goal is to help conscious women and families learn and master the three most essential tools that help align you with your soul’s purpose — your essential nature and the truest expression of yourself — all whilst healing and transcending past resentments and stories that have kept you stuck and in pain. It is then that you experience the miracles and fulfillment of life in every moment (especially during life’s inevitable obstacles).

Keli’s philosophy is not to become your guru or healer but rather to inspire change, share essential strategies, and hold the space for you to bring light to your darkness, and help you reclaim the power you already have. Awakening becomes awakened. It is all there within you; you are enough. You just need space held for you, as you learn the proven tools and embody the rituals needed for this awakening or power to become realized.

Boundary setting is a game-changer for women who want to master their sovereignty, sacred self, and inner peace. Yet why is setting healthier boundaries often so tough, and met with so much inner resistance? This solo episode is for you if you desire the space and latitude to walk your path in alignment with who you really are. Dr. Laura first talks about why many of us are so deeply habituated and programmed into the idea that boundaries are negative and isolating, and why this couldn’t be further from the truth. She then gives 5 quick tips on boundary setting, plus one bonus strategy. What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Why is there a range of subtle to stubborn resistance to create boundaries that ultimately support our own rise?
In creating a boundary, a focused conversation needs to happen together in tandem with aligned action.
How are women treated differently than men in society when setting boundaries?
We can lift others up by showing that we have our own boundaries, and it mirrors to others that they can feel free to do the same.
How disrespecting our own healthy boundaries leads to a feeling of inner disappointment and self-betrayal?
The definition of boundaries.
What is the cost of not following through with your boundaries?
It is less about creating permission and agreement between you and the person you are setting the boundary with and more about communicating what is and is not okay for you. Your boundaries are reflective of your beliefs, your values, and your perspectives.
Boundary setting is a skill that can change over time depending on our life circumstances.
When you are having a conversation about your boundaries, you must be willing to engage in the whole conversation. Don’t leave anything lingering.
5 quick tips on boundary setting:
When something is off, or you find yourself constantly annoyed or irritated or anxious or resentful of a relationship or situation, pause and ask yourself, “what am I feeling?” “What boundary has been crossed in this situation?”
It’s up to you to determine what needs to change. It may be helpful to journal this.
When communicating: Be clear and direct and avoid over-explaining.
You aren't looking for the other person to understand as much as you're looking for agreement. Boundaries are personal and they reflect you. Other people don’t need to feel like the boundary is warranted.
Focus on yourself when you are communicating the boundary. I feel and I need is more neutral language than sentences that use “you.” “When you ____” etc.

Bonus: Have the entire conversation. Communicate clearly and fully and don’t leave anything unaddressed. Chances are you know when something has been left on the table. Have the courage to see the conversation through to the end.

Quotes:

“Our incessant desire to say yes to other people at the chronic expense of ourselves is the very definition of self-betrayal.”
“I hope that you see how so much of what we desire in life is on the other side of standing in the power of who you are.”
“Boundary setting may not be easy, but it is a skill. And it is worth developing.”
“I have to adjust my openness accordingly because it's simply not sustainable to live out of alignment with my boundaries.”
“As much as we may not see boundary setting as a journey back to self, it most definitely is.”

Jenn is a Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist, Holistic Lifestyle Expert, Master Hormone Educator, Best Selling Author, and host of the incredible podcast, The Simplicity Sessions. We first get to know Jenn’s journey into wellness and what led her to see the brilliance, vulnerability, and strength in each and every woman she meets. Jenn leads a revolutionary program, The Hormone Project that draws women in from all over the world. From this place of leadership and mentorship, as well as her own personal journey, Jenn teaches the importance of finding what grounds you and building it into a consistent practice.

There is laughter and tears in this raw and real episode. What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

Jenn helps women create more simplicity and ease in all that they do. She lives and teaches that well-being is a journey to be enjoyed and not a struggle to be endured.

How to get out of the mindset that everything must be hard and difficult.
As a woman and as a mother means coming to terms with the truth that sometimes you are sacrificing, either for yourself or others - and how to find peace in this.
Knowing the one thing that grounds you so that you can come back home to yourself along the way.
The courage to show up as you are and not feel guilt about what you can’t or don’t want to do. Finding and living in alignment with your values and what’s true to you.
What does it look like to step into your divine feminine? Why there is a tendency for women to be living in their more masculine energy. How the awareness and shift towards a balance are where the sweet spot is.
Real talk from both of them about being a mom in this moment — at this time.

Quotes:

“Women and mothers, they are actually the everyday athletes of life.” — Jenn
