This is the Essence Reveal Podcast, where we peel back the layers to uncover your Essence Brand. I'm Christina Cortright Jenkins, and I'm a passionately curious Essence Guide and the creator of Embody Your Essence Brand. Essence is the grownup and self-aware version of your authenticity and when it comes to your personal brand, it's not something you create, it's something you uncover and embody, and that's what we're here to do.
I came into 2022 full of hope, optimism, stars in my eyes, ready for all the things I had hoped for, worked for, done manifesting work for, and paid so much for in the three major currencies: time, focus, and money. 2022 is the year I turned 50, and I was going to have the party of the century, I had made arrangements to move overseas for a few months. I felt healthy, happy, and hopeful.
Within weeks it became clear that a move over seas was not in the Universal plan for the year as my partner was suffering from some intense health challenges. I lost large sums of money through a variety of investments that didn’t turn out as hoped for. Instead of celebrating my 50th birthday, I stayed hidden in my cave, not feeling like I could handle the spotlight.
As I reflect on this year I realize that although I have peeled back many layers of belief around prescriptive or formulaic living, this was a year where I was compelled to dig deeper around that.
As I practice what I teach, I have gone through the process I take my clients through, I have worked with my own coaches, I have journalled and meditated. I know my life and my business is shifting, and so while I have a brilliant and unique Season two of the Essence Reveal Podcast planned, I am going to take a short break for a couple of months to get more clarity, adjust my systems and structures, and laser in on my work.
There are a few offerings in 2023 I am ready to reveal and I would like you to be aware of. They are:
- Toe Reading Academy YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ_BUsTqeZGfg1bkNtghMGg
- To book a reading email to: toereadingacademy@gmail.com
- Moon Celebration Circle: https://moonworkbook.flowtrack.me/
I have loved this season of this podcast with you. I have learned so much, I have loved your feedback, I appreciate deeply your support, I have made dear friends with the guests and gained wisdom from them. It has been an adventure that will continue after a brief pause.
I am grateful for you, my friends. Happy 2023, I’ll see you in a couple of months.

Hello, my friends; welcome back to the Essence Reveal Podcast. I’m your host, Christina, and I have been experiencing a very interesting 2022. It’s been a year of full circles, new awarenesses, learning to grow and adapt at a deeper level, working through disappointments and unmet expectations, pivots, and finally, a true surrender.
As we move through our Essence Reveal journeys, we become aware of the roles and identities we have attached to. A question I am contemplating is does your essence change? I used to think your essence was stable and unchanging it was our experience with our Essence that changed as we peeled back more and more layers and evolved as a soul. Now I am unsure.
Join me and tune into today’s episode as we continue peeling back the layers of our Essence and the containers that are our lives. As you listen to today’s episode I want you to think about the analogies and experiences that I am sharing with you and ask yourself:
- What are you being asked to show to the world?
- Where have you outgrown your container?
- What stage of freedom are you in?
- And finally: How is that like me?
I am grateful for you and I appreciate your continued support. Remember, always BE YOU!! See you next time!

Welcome to Episode 17 of The Essence Reveal Podcast. Today I am thrilled to welcome Giota Vorgia to the podcast. Giota was born in Greece where art is an integral part of the culture and existence, and she was born to be an artist. Her parents were both artists and her siblings are musicians. Being an artist was natural and her Essence.
When Giota was 12 she discovered the beauty of stone. She would collect stones from the Grecian coast and paint and share them. As she grew she continued to collect and observe stones she gathered from all over the world. She saw the pure beauty in them. In 2004, inspired by the beauty of primal nature in stone, water, and wood, she produced a series of works based on these natural elements. Staying present, in the ‘now” is how she finds beauty everywhere and paints as a way to appreciate the beauty and life around her.
Giota’s paintings inspire the viewer to increase awareness of their presence in an expanded present moment, using stone as an image of perfection and stability. People from around the world display her art in their galleries, homes, and businesses, and her work is said to bring therapeutic, healing, and high vibrations to people's souls. This is Giota’s purpose.
Tune in as Giota shares:
- Her journey to being present
- Why being outside in nature is so essential to remain connected and open
- Her deeply personal connection with stones in her artwork
- And more
A heartfelt thank you to Giota for her time, energy, and for her beautiful artwork. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.

Hello, my friends!! Welcome back to my table!! I’m so happy you are here! Thank you so much for your reviews and feedback, really, it means the world to me!
I have a question for you: Have you felt it? The “collective Burnout”?
Does it feel like the Universe is asking you to slow down, trust it, move forward even if you can’t see the way? Are things not turning out like you expected or wanted and you don’t really know what to do? You can see what you want, but getting there isn’t working?
These are the things I’m hearing every single day from people, and am going through a personal lesson and relearning about this concept in an aspect of my life. You are probably familiar with the concept of “surrendering to the Universe”, the concept of believing that there is the possibility of something even better happening for you, that the Universe, God, Source is always guiding you to the highest good, and giving over your desires and will to that higher power. And, it is not an easy thing to do, to let go of the one thing that is truly your own, your will.
I’ve been hearing a lot from people that they are just surrendering to the Universe, out of options, compelled to surrender because they have done everything they possibly can, there is really nothing left to do but surrender. And then you may know people like I do, people that seem to effortlessly live in a state of surrender to the Universe and manifest the most serendipitous things.
So, how about you? Is it easy or challenging to surrender to the Universe?
In this episode I am going to talk about different kinds of surrender. Survival surrender, Subordinating Surrender, Stoic Surrender. These all fall under the category of Story Surrender, because they are based on story, and another type of surrender called Supported Surrender.
As you listen to this podcast, I invite you to ask yourself this question, “How is that like me?” That singular question has helped me uncover all sorts of untrue stories I tell myself. I’d love to hear your thoughts about today’s episode and about your experiences with surrendering. And if you know someone who could use this information, please forward them this podcast.

Hey everyone! Welcome to the Essence Reveal Podcast – I took a month off to rejuvenate, and I’m back, excited to share with you some gems I have uncovered recently through a soul excavating process I’ve been through.
Let’s dive into today’s topic, which I have become increasingly passionate about: Compassion, Sympathy, Empathy, and Pity. If you look these up in the dictionary you would be led to believe that they are all pretty much the same, and that perhaps empathy is the most enlightened feeling of the four. I’m going to challenge all of that and invite you to look at these four feelings in a deeper way.
I truly appreciate you listening to this podcast and I hope you learned something empowering. Empowering myself and others is my mission in life, I believe that empowered people are people who will evolve humanity. Empowered people love themselves and others, people who love themselves and others don’t hurt people. Can you imagine the world we would live in if everyone was empowered? Thank you for joining me today and see you next week with an all new inspiring interview with an amazing human!

Hello, my friends and welcome back to my table! I’m so happy you are here.
I have a question for you: Have you ever heard of gaslighting? What about gaslighting yourself? This is the topic for today’s episode and we are diving right in.
Gaslighting is defined as manipulating someone by psychological means into questioning their own sanity, reality, and perceptions. Over time gaslighting will wear down your self-confidence, leaving you even more vulnerable to more gaslighting.
Gaslighting is real, gaslighting is abusive. We often think of gaslighting as someone doing it to someone else, or a group. Throughout this episode, I’m going to challenge you to see how you may in fact be gaslighting yourself.
Some tactics of gaslighting are:
- questioning things you know you did or said or your recollection of events,
- Being accused of being too sensitive or crazy,
- Communication that your needs aren’t valid,
- Expression of doubt about your state of mind and sanity,
- Manipulated into taking all the blame or responsibility for things,
Ask yourself:
- Do you find yourself questioning things you know you did or said or your recollection of events?
- Do you express doubt about your state of mind and sanity?
- Do you suffer from what we call “imposter syndrome”? I think imposter syndrome can be a sign of gaslighting yourself as well.
- Do you frequently adopt someone else's version of reality over your own because you believe they are probably right and you are wrong?
So I ask you again, are you gaslighting yourself?
To combat these thoughts and patterns I invite you to ask contemplate:
- What do I want?
- What is my perception of this?
- What do I think is true?
- What is my Essence Compass showing me?
From here you will be better equipped to assess if you are doing the important work of personal development, and revealing your essence, or if you are gaslighting yourself or being gaslighted.
Again, gaslighting of any kind is about power. Episode 10 is all about power and if you think you are in a gaslighting situation, that will be a great one to relisten to.
Remember You are powerful, You are your own permission slip, You are the authority of your own life.
I’d love to hear your thoughts about today’s episode and about your experiences.

Welcome to Episode 11 of The Essence Reveal Podcast. Today’s episode is such an inspirational journey of discovering and believing in yourself. I am so honored to have Krishana D. Scruggs, founder of Magnolia’s Kiss Lip Candy as our guest on today’s episode. Tune in as Krishana shares:
- Her process of uncovering and revealing her Essence Brand
- The journey of believing in herself
- The importance and power of consistency
- How standing in her Essence has brought her to where she is today.
I am so humbled and wanted to extend my deepest gratitude to Krishana for time and vulnerability in sharing her journey with us.
Meet Krishana
Krishana D. Scruggs, is the mother of four (4) outstandingly amazing children: Kayla (24, our Heavenly Baby), Kaitlyn (23), Tyre’ (21) and Toryn Dace (6).
Ms. Scruggs takes pride in being apart of the employment staffing realm for nearly 10 years. Though she finds pleasure assisting those seeking employment, her ultimate goal has been to create a legacy of entrepreneurship for her family, herself, and others willing to change the future, hence, Magnolia’s Kiss Lip Candy was formed.
Magnolia’s Kiss came about in the midst of an excruciating pandemic of COVID-19 in 2020 during a time when the world came to a halt. Nothing seemed to flourish, but as a visionary, she began praying in 2019 for a way to establish generational wealth for just herself, but also for her children, family, and others. A way to be released from poverty and propelled to the ranks of financial freedom, the influence of others, and to educate those seeking a better life.
Magnolia’s Kiss Lip Candy is only the beginning of an empire that will carry her last name to the end of time. Seeds have been planted in her children and friends, allowing them to experience things they’ll never be able to unsee or “unthink”. A life they not only dream of but a life they can actually live. Magnolia’s Kiss Lip Candy was created for the prime person seeking outstanding lip care products consisting of lip gloss, lip oil, and lip scrubs providing optimal moisture, lasting hydration, sensual softness, and the ultimate shine offering tantalizing refreshment to the taste palette allowing each being to express themselves in the most colorful way! We, at Magnolia’s Kiss, have created products that will not only change how an individual thinks but how they speak, as well. People must know that once their minds are open to thinking something different, their lips will begin to speak something different. We change mindsets starting with the most powerful tool, the lips!!!
“I believe we are opening doors for others to walk through to fields of massive opportunity because we stepped out on faith with a little of nothing to change EVERYTHING!!! We are Magnolia’s Kiss Lip Candy and we’re Taking Over The World One Lip At A Time

Welcome to Episode 10 of The Essence Reveal Podcast. I am honored to have you at my table, and I’m really excited to talk about something we all deal with every single day: Power, Boundaries & Dynamics.
You’ve been dancing a life dance for a long time, likely a slightly different variation on the same dance with the different partners, friends, and communities. And Just like a professional ballroom dancer, you know how to do this life dance well, especially with the people closest to you. The slightest change of hand pressure, the subtlest shift of the shoulders, or the smallest move of the hips indicates the next move in this practiced dance analogy. Just like with our people, the slightest change of gaze, the subtlest alteration of posture, the smallest move of the lips, a minor shift of energy, we know how the dance goes.
So what happens when we change the dance? What if your whole life you’ve been doing the country swing, everyone is used to you doing the country swing, but now you feel the tango simmering inside you. As you try out your moves, how does it feel to you? How does it feel to others? It may feel awkward because your new moves don’t even go with the music that is playing; you may step on some toes or get your toes stepped on. People may look at you funny, people may not like that you are changing the dance. Some people will reject it, some will want to follow you, and some will just be confused and try to get you back to doing the old dance. You may be tempted to go back because it is certain and familiar and learning a new dance can be kind of hard. But as you continue to practice, you will create your own new ballroom that is playing tango music. Now you have a choice, you can dance the country dance if that serves you, you can tango if that serves you. You can teach others to do the tango and that might empower them to learn to waltz and they get to do their own dance.
Apply this analogy to your own life. As you are showing up more and more in your Essence, as you peel back those layers, you are doing your own dance. And one of the greatest things about this is that it then empowers others to do their own dance. Some people will reject you, some will follow you, and some will try to get you back into the old dance, but ultimately YOU get to decide. These are your boundaries. Depending on the purpose and consciousness with which we set up our boundaries, they will feel different, creating a dynamic where we feel we need to defend, be combative, and unconsciously invite people to cross them. I love this quote by Russell M Nelson who said “Our Boundary lines don’t have to be Battle lines.” Wise words!
Setting the dynamics of your relationships from a place of ownership, vulnerability, and responsibility by knowing, setting, and upholding your own boundaries creates powerful relationship dynamics of creativity, contribution, and connectedness.
I hope from this information, you can create the most empowering essence-based relationships in all your interactions.

Welcome to Episode 8 of The Essence Reveal Podcast. A few weeks ago I became aware that a new Spirit Guide had come to me. I was at a particularly low point in my current life journey. Feeling high levels of frustration and disappointment, anxiety and fear. I felt a bit confused at first because this guide is quite different than any other Spirit Guide that has ever come to me, yet with deep reflection, I have become aware of the important lessons they are here to help me learn and share, because I think with the collective burnout and shifting energy in the collective human experience of our current times, these lessons are important for us all.
In this episode, I reflect on 4 lessons that my spirit guides have taught me as I go through life. I also talk about my philosophy with spirit guides and various ways to tap into your own. Finally, I invite you to ponder on your Spirit Guides and what they are trying to teach you about your Essence.
If you would like to know more about Spirit Guides and how you can find yours, you are always welcome to email me at Christina@embodyyouressencebrand.com

Welcome to episode 2 of The Essence Reveal Podcast: You’ve Got A Brand. In today’s episode, we are delving into BRANDING. Branding is an art form and whether you realize it or not, every single person has a personal brand. I feel sad when I see someone who has done “the work”, has great content, and is showing up following the pre-prescribed branding formula, and then they are filed away as just another coach, consultant, copywriter, etc. Branding is not a “one size fits all” thing. It is a very intentional action that involves embodying the essence of who you are, so ask yourself: Are you showing up the way the formula has prescribed and then getting filed away? It’s time for another way.
Here are some questions to reflect on and answer for yourself in relation to branding:
- Is your brand built on what the market says it wants?
- Are you showing up the way you think you should or the way someone recommended?
- Do you stress about what people think about you?
- Do you think that if you just get that next certification, then you'll be ready and have what it takes?
- Are you in a cycle of comparison competition or copying?
- Do you worry about meeting people's expectations or being misunderstood?
- Do you doubt and question yourself or feel defensive when someone has a different opinion?
- Do you feel like your logo style, color scheme, and content support you and is in alignment?
I would love to hear your responses to the questions from today’s episode landed on your PEMS Body Compass. Connect with me at hello@embodyyouressencebrand.com and check out the website www.embodyyouressencebrand.com for more information and goodies.
