Being caught in the whirling vortex of a narcissist can be both damaging and defeating. Without being able to identify and key into the red flags of a narcissist, it can be all too easy to fall into a toxic dynamic. We have seen countless clients navigate this, and we have one of those clients with us today!
This week, we are being joined by Kristen Elliot, a client since 2016 who quickly became a close friend. She has experienced first-hand the troubles of navigating a narcissistic relationship, the red-flags of a narcissist, and the little deaths inside that allow us to move past it.

Raising a child can be one of life’s greatest accomplishments, and one of its wildest adventures. How do you balance being a conscious parent, with being true and transparent to yourself and your boundaries? How do you maintain both a healthy separation and a deep connection with your child? What if you don’t have kids, how do you serve as a parent to yourself?
On this week’s podcast, we are joined by Leslie Potter, the founder of Purejoy Parenting, to share her insights into parenthood, boundaries, and creating a safe home. In this conversation we will learn about finding and leveraging our internal strengths, opening our hearts and minds to healthy separation and connection, and creating a safe space and home inside of yourself.

The world we live in can be really overwhelming for most of us. Working all day long in front of screens, too much stress, lack of quality sleep and all the unhealthy habits that come with our modern, high-performing lifestyle are just some of the reasons.
For highly sensitive souls there are even more reasons to often feel overloaded and overwhelmed as their nervous system is wired to process more information from the environment, and are also able to feel the emotions of the people around them.
When we feel overwhelmed it becomes very hard for us to concentrate and perform at our full capacity. That affects our self-esteem by making us feel we are not able to handle the tasks we have to handle.
And when the common advice we often get - "well, just break it down into the smallest possible items, and then tackle it one by one" - does not work, we feel even more frustrated.
But the truth is this advice can’t really work when we are overwhelmed. And no, it is not your fault, it is not because you are weak and unable to do something that may seem so easy to do. Not at all. There is a scientifically proven reason for that.
And if you want to learn how to manage overwhelm, forget about that advice. Instead, you can learn how to identify the signs of overwhelm that your system is giving you as early as possible and practice some self-care strategies to beat overwhelm.
In this week's episode, Lola dives deep into how to understand what's going on with our body so we can catch the signs of overwhelm, how to stop being detached from our beingness, why we need to take the word “should” out of our vocabulary, how to tell the difference between intuition and overwhelm and what is beneficial stress and how to partner with it. More than that, she reveals the most important overwhelm signs and gives effective self-care solutions to each one of them.

Pricing can be a very tricky thing for any business owner. And when they are sensitive persons who offer services created to help people, setting the right price can be a very difficult problem for them.
As highly sensitive souls we want to help everyone, we dream to save the whole world, to make everybody happy and content. But when we also have to make a living out of helping people, as coaches or healers, for example, establishing a price for our services can be really challenging.
Most of us have a lot of limiting beliefs regarding this topic. We may think we don’t worth too much (as we usually struggle with self-esteem issues), or that people in our audience can’t afford to pay a high price for what we offer. We may also feel often confused about what the “right” price may be (and picking a wrong or, worse, an unfair price is the last thing we want to do).
But, there are some important things we all must keep in mind.. The first one is that we, as gifted human beings, are unique and absolutely priceless. What we do and who we are cannot be measured in money. The other thing is that we will be surprised how many people can afford to pay a high price to transform their lives into better ones we have right in front of us. At last, but not at least, we need to remember that pricing is a double-sided initiation and a powerful boundary in our business.
And what if we told you there is no such thing as “wrong price”? What if you could get something extremely valuable each time you set a price, regardless of what your audience may think about it?
Ready to find out more? Ready to take your business to the next level?
In this week's episode, Lola dives deep into the problem of pricing and explains why it might be easier to sell higher-level offerings than “more affordable” ones, how to identify our limiting beliefs around pricing and why no price that we choose is a wrong one. She also reveals what is the only thing we need to look for as business owners, why money and worth are not the same thing, and some effective pricing strategies to apply in our business to make it more successful.

As coaches and healers, we value transparency and authenticity. We don’t want to pretend that our lives are perfect and we have it "together" all the time. We want our audience (and potential clients) to perceive us as genuine human beings who can relate to their struggles.
Most of us think that sharing our own experiences and struggles online can be beneficial for our business and that being vulnerable online will make people trust us more. We aim for our audience to see us as warm, sensitive people who can understand their own problems.
And yes, if we share these kinds of things in a healthy way, this authenticity can help us grow. But sometimes being vulnerable in our online communities can cost us dearly.
We are actually walking on a very fine line when we want to post in a way that is authentic and transparent because at the same time, we don’t want to instill a fear that we can't handle the opportunity to work with someone.
Sharing the emotions and feelings we struggle with at the moment can create a huge amount of resonance among our audience and it opens up the gateways to have empathic connections with people who are also in a bad place. But this is certainly not a good strategy marketing-wise.
Letting our audience know that we are not in a good place at this moment can lead to them feeling like we might not be able to handle their struggles right now. They may not want to bother us with their problems and therefore they are unlikely to sign up for our coaching programs, our online courses, etc.
So, how do we walk this fine line of being authentic and still inspire people to work with us? How can we still be vulnerable in a way that BUILDS trust and adds to our bottom line? How can we stay in INTEGRITY while making a living out of helping other people become the best version of themselves?
In this week's episode, Lola answers all these questions and much more. She dives deep into why being authentic online can sometimes end up costing us sales in our business and what are the filters we can use when we are thinking about what to share online. More than that, she shares some effective strategies to navigate authenticity, transparency and vulnerability the right way on social media.

Humans have used the Moon's energy to guide them for millennia. For generations and generations, farmers have planted crops and harvested them at specific times based on the moon. Hunters, fishermen, and gatherers were also tracking the moon to ensure success in their activities that were so important for daily living.
There is a strong connection between the Earth and its satellite — the Moon — and there is also a powerful relationship between the inhabitants of our planet and the energies of our closest celestial being.
Among other things, we know that the lunar cycle influences reproduction in fish, melatonin levels in birds, hormonal changes in insects, and also our menstrual cycles. Moreover, the phases of the Moon can affect our mood, our emotions, our health, our sleep and our behavior.
Nowadays, many of these things are scientifically proven, but paradoxically, it seems that people have lost that genuine connection with the Moon that they had centuries ago (before the giant leap for mankind was made and we conquered the Earth's only natural satellite that was once believed to be a goddess).
Living in big cities and working inside offices all day long makes us often forget that there is a sky above us. But the Moon, with its huge influence on our lives, is still there. And learning how to benefit from the energies it sends to us could make big changes in all areas of our lives.
Just like it does for farmers, hunters, or fishermen, the Moon can guide our businesses towards success, regardless of our activity field. By tracking the lunar cycle we can predict when is the best time to start new projects and the Moon's energy can give us a boost or help us find our flow.
Moon MAGIC is real and it can bring huge benefits both in our business and personal lives. We just have to learn how to work with the Moon, how to enable the connection we have with its energies and how to predict different events by tracking the lunar cycle.
In this week's episode, Lola dives deep into how to understand lunar energy, how to track the Moon cycle, and how to work with the Moon signs and their elements. Plus, she reveals some efficient strategies to plan your business for success using Moon work. So, if you want to plan your business and your life with the help of the Moon, check out this episode to learn how to partner with its MAGIC!

Highly sensitive souls seem to often be attracted to narcissists and involved in toxic relationships in general. This is mainly because narcissists need so much attention, care, and reassurance, while our high level of empathy makes us drawn to helping and caring for others.
More than that, we can see through somebody’s toxic behaviors into the core of that person, we can see (and fall in love with) the good part in anyone, with the potential each person holds. Sometimes the deeper that good part is buried, the more we fall for that potential, beautiful soul we will actually never get to know in real life.
Also, many of us struggle with low self-esteem issues, insecure attachment, and people pleasing patterns - things that also make us prone to get into toxic relationships. Once we get there, it is very hard for us to get out or to make those changes that could transform the relationship into a better one.
But admitting that there is something wrong, identifying some narcissistic traits in our partner and some toxic patterns in our relationship is an important step. So, if you’ve already done this, the question becomes: “Now, what? What should I do now? How do I handle this situation?”
This is certainly a difficult moment for anyone. Deciding what to do next with a relationship that doesn't work anymore and preparing for a serious conversation about this is not an easy thing to do. And, if you are a highly sensitive soul and your partner is a narcissist (or a person who shows narcissistic traits), things can be even harder. But having this conversation and deciding what to do next is a must if we don’t want to stand in the way of our own happiness.
Hoping things will change by magic or wishing one day we'll wake up next to that wonderful person we once fell in love with (instead of this stranger that took their place sometimes along the way), is not realistic and certainly not healthy. We know that this situation is never going to change unless we do something about it.
But how do we know what is the best thing to do? Do we need to move out of the relationship? And if so, what is the best way to do this? How do we leave a narcissist? And how do we move on?
In this week’s episode, Lola answers these questions and much more. After revealing the most important narcissistic traits to look for in your partner in last week's episode, this time she dives deep into the three-step process for transitioning out of a toxic relationship in order to finally be able to live the life (and find the relationship) that you deserve.

It all started like a fairytale. You met this charming person and they made you feel so special. They were so good, so smart, so caring, and so loving. You felt that unique connection and you truly believed that you have finally found the love of your life. It was all so romantic, so amazingly perfect.
Yes. It WAS. At the beginning. That beginning you are playing again and again in your mind and can’t understand where it went. How did that wonderful person disappear? When did this “evil twin” replace them?
How can your partner be so different from the person you once fell in love with to the point that they feel like a totally different person? Have you done something wrong? When did the fairytale turn into this horror movie you live in today?
If you resonate with this story, you might be already asking yourself: “Is my partner a narcissist? And if so, what do I do now?”.
Unfortunately, highly sensitive souls seem to often be attracted to narcissists. It is also very hard for us to end a toxic relationship. And this is not because we are weak or easy to be manipulated, or whatever others may think about us.
The real reason is that we can see deep inside people. That means we can see the good part in anyone, no matter how deep it may be buried.
We can see through somebody’s toxic behaviors into the core of that person. We see the potential that they hold, the love-worthiness that they represent, and the soul that's inside of them. We can see it and we can love it - to a point that it becomes really toxic for us.
Our sensitive superpower can work against us in these situations, because it makes it hard to differentiate between the reality that we live in and this other potential reality we can feel. This makes it easy for them to manipulate us and more than that, we might start gaslighting ourselves, too.
Of course, if your relationship isn’t working or if you feel there is something wrong, it doesn't necessarily mean that your partner is a narcissist. A narcissistic personality disorder is a diagnosis that should be given by a specialist.
However, even if our partner isn't a textbook narcissist, they can show toxic narcissist traits that are just as harmful for the relationship. In fact, all of us demonstrate toxic narcissism to some degree or another in different types of situations.
So, before we start armchair diagnosing anyone, there are some important patterns to identify, both in our partner AND in us (this can really help us become a better version of ourselves) ...
In this week’s episode, Lola dives into what narcissism is, why empaths are attracted to narcissists, and what “love bombing” is and how it can lead to a toxic relationship. Also, she reveals five signs that your partner might be a narcissist and what we need to do to get out of a toxic relationship.

“I shouldn’t have done that!” “Oh, if only I would have…” “I was so stupid to do that!” “I can never do it right.” “I will never figure this out.” “ I'm always gonna screw this up.” “I am worthless, I should definitely give up…”
Do you have these kinds of negative thoughts each time you do something regrettable or make a ‘wrong’ decision?
As highly sensitive souls, we are prone to extreme perfectionism and self-criticism. And while in healthy doses, self-criticism can be a good thing. It can help us achieve our goals and become better people. However, constantly striving for perfection can set off a spiral of negative thoughts that will eventually lead to negative behaviors and self sabotage.
Like anything else, when done in excess, self-criticism and perfectionism can make us stand in our own way to success, and it can easily become a pattern of self-abuse and self-abandonment. Beating ourselves up each time we fall, each time we make a small mistake, and each time we make a wrong decision is certainly not healthy behavior
Do you struggle with this? Do you go into spirals of “should have,” “would have,” “didn't,” and shaming or judging yourself for decisions that were off track for you? Do you often fall into a shame spiral and then you feel ashamed you were in a shame spiral? Are you judging yourself because you have self-judgment? Are you familiar with this toxic cycle of self-sabotage that seems so hard to break?
Well, most highly sensitive souls and empaths know this story. Dealing with regrets can be very tricky for us, because we have this tendency of beating ourselves up and falling into toxic spirals, instead of taking responsibility for our mistake, learning our lesson and moving on with the determination to do better next time.
Regrets are not necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, never experiencing regret or guilt (if that is even possible without being a narcissist) will not help us become better persons after we do something wrong.
Feeling regret is a common human emotion that should function like a guide and a teacher. But there are regrets and regrets. Good ones and bad ones, real ones and false ones, useful ones and toxic ones.
Real, genuine regrets are designed to help us grow, to help us realign, and learn from that experience. We all know that the most important lessons in life come in these kinds of moments, when things don’t go as we wanted them to. As opposed to that, false regrets are very toxic and will always stay in our way to become better persons.
But how can we differentiate between these two types of regrets? And how do we deal with regrets without beating ourselves up, without falling into unhealthy spirals?
In this week’s episode, Lola dives deep into what regrets really are and where do they come from, what the meta shame spiral is and how can we pull ourselves out of it, what is a real regret and what is a false regret and how to differentiate between the two. Plus, she reveals some efficient strategies to help you use regret as a teacher and some useful tips on how to make powerful decisions.

Did you know that the biggest violator of your boundaries is actually yourself? As HSPs or empaths, being so connected to everyone and everything makes it hard to connect to ourselves and our own needs. But to be able to follow our calling as sensitive souls, we really need to set better boundaries with ourselves.
For HSPs and empaths setting healthy boundaries is usually challenging. It is difficult for us to understand that most people are not capable of feeling what our needs and expectations are (because we CAN feel what theirs are, right?) and that we need to express these things through verbal communication (no, people usually don't read minds, body language, energy and vibes like we do!). So we blame this insensitive world for breaking our boundaries over and over again.
But even though the world can be really mean sometimes and there are some people who take advantage of our sensitivity, the truth is that we are responsible for our lack of solid and healthy boundaries. And the first thing we need to look into when it comes to these issues is: do we have solid boundaries with ourselves?
As highly sensitive souls, we know that self-care is very important. Keeping ourselves safe and healthy, making sure we do not get overstimulated or overwhelmed are some of the things we need to really pay attention to in order to function at our highest potential. But an essential form of self-care (which actually underlies all of the above) is setting healthy boundaries with ourselves.
Boundaries help you create a safe space for yourself in your own life, and if you want to be able to establish healthy limits in your relationships you need to start with the most important one: the relationship with yourself. This is tricky and challenging for a highly sensitive soul.
Most of us have been taught that we're worthless, we've been taught that we need to toughen up, that we're too sensitive, that we don't have what it takes, that we don't matter, that our voice is never going to be heard, that we're going to be invisible. Growing up with these kinds of messages created a belief system that makes us think we are not good enough. So, the relationship with ourselves is the last one we think about.
Putting off things that we want to do for ourselves while our calendar is overloaded with other people's needs, letting our past dictate our future, or perceiving our limiting beliefs as facts are some of the signs that we might have troubles with the boundaries with ourselves.
Want to find out more of these patterns and what to do to set better boundaries with yourself?
In this week’s episode, Lola dives deep into what boundaries with ourselves are, who are the people who have the biggest issue with our boundaries, why lack of boundaries with ourselves attract narcissists to HSPs and why setting boundaries with ourselves is so difficult sometimes. More than that, she reveals what are the most important signs that we are having trouble setting boundaries with ourselves and some effective strategies to help us establish solid and healthy limits with us and the world around us.

It is pretty common for an HSP or an empath to go from being the uncool, “too sensitive” kid to becoming that cool, fun and detached person who is so easy to get along with, who is friends with everyone and seems to have it all.
How does this happen? Well, being a sensitive child or teenager can be really difficult and quite painful sometimes. When all the other kids call us “crybabies” (and maybe bully us because of that), when the adults advise us to “toughen up”, when we are told we are “too sensitive” and we “shouldn’t care that much”, what can we do?
A common way to cope with that, a way to protect ourselves from all this pain that “caring too much” seems to bring with it, is trying to reduce how much we care by tuning out, numbing out, and chilling out. In one word: by becoming the “cool kids”.
For an HSP or an empath, acting cool is actually a form of protection from being rejected by others, a way to easily become friends with everyone, a pattern of people-pleasing.
Are you an HSP who plays this role of a cool, “go with the flow” person? And is this person really you, does this “cool kid” feel like yourself deep inside? Or is it just a mask that protects you from feeling “too much”, from being “too sensitive”, from being that uncool kid who is still silently hurting?
Being “cool” means being cold and you, as a highly sensitive soul, are anything but cold. No matter how much you pretend you are made of ice, you have a WARM soul that was sent in this world to shine.
And yes, there is a way to be uncool, to be WARM, to be yourself and also feel happy. There is a way to stop being a people pleaser and start leaving the MAGIC life you were created for.
In this week’s episode, Lola shares her own experience as an empath who used to be a “cool girl” and the lessons she learned from this experience, she explains why HSPs numb out their feelings and emotions, how trying to “go with the flow” can lead to depression, and why being warm is healthier for an HSP than being cool. Plus, she helps you identify what type of empath you are in order to start your people-pleasing recovery.

Giving is the best way to show kindness. This is something we all have been taught from a young age. But is over-giving a form of generosity or is it something different?
Generosity makes us feel good. It is scientifically proven that doing an act of generosity raises our levels of happiness and emotional well-being, it reduces psychological problems, and even releases feel-good hormones.
But what about when we over-give? Well, it seems the effects of over-giving are really different. Feeling angry, frustrated and restful are just some of them. So, while being a generous person is a wonderful thing, giving too much can get us caught in unhealthy cycles.
Giving in when our child is having a tantrum in the middle of the street, still helping a former client that is not paying for our services anymore, or saying “yes” to something that our partner wants to do, even if we don't want to do it, are all patterns of over-giving in your relationships.
Over-giving is something that most of us, HSPs and empaths, are guilty of. Although we know we cannot help everyone, that's exactly what many of us feel like we should be able to do. And we spend a lot of our time and energy doing it. Because we have kind hearts, because, as highly sensitive souls we can feel what others feel and it pains us to see people suffering. Especially when there might be something that we could do to alleviate that pain.
Unfortunately, in many cases, trying to save the world in our over-giving way, ends up depleting us and even making us sick. Both physically and emotionally.
But how can we save the world, how can we protect our loved ones if we are not healthy, strong and happy? Is there a way to stop sabotaging ourselves and our relationships by always giving more than we need to?
Well, as in many other situations, the first step is awareness. We will first need to identify the patterns of overgiving in all our relationships. And this can be tricky because sometimes there are some surprising ways that this actually shows up.
To find out what these patterns are and what to do to change this behavior, listen to the newest episode of the Moon + Manifest Podcast! Lola reveals some of the physical and emotional indicators that you are over-giving and the most important signs of over-giving as an entrepreneur, as a parent, and as a partner. Listen now to learn how to stop giving too much in order to really be able to SHINE your light upon the world!

Being a highly sensitive soul is definitely a blessing and a GIFT. Many of us recognize this and are thankful for all of the great things that come with being a sensitive human. But, we also know that life in a non-HSP culture can be really challenging sometimes.
And there are those moments when this wonderful trait feels more like a burden and we just wish and dream that someday this world will change, will become more sensitive, will understand and appreciate us for what we are.
Well, the bad news is that it’s very unlikely that the world will change for us. It is how it is, and maybe it doesn't have to be different. Maybe there is a reason why we are just a small percent of sensitives in a non-sensitive world. Who knows? What we know almost for certain is that the world is not going to change for us.
But there is also good news: we have the power to make a positive change in our lives so we can always overcome these challenges. For that, we have to realize that our sensitivity is actually our biggest strength.
If it doesn’t feel like that yet, there are two powerful questions we need to ask ourselves, two questions that can absolutely shift our entire trajectory in life. They are not only powerful strategies to get underneath our subconscious programming, but also ways to rewire our relationship to ourselves and others in this world.
To find out what these questions are, listen in to the newest episode of the Moon + Manifest podcast. Inside, Lola explains what these powerful questions are, why we need to answer them and how they can help us develop our resilience as a sensitive soul so that we can stop getting in the way of our own success and overcome all the challenges of living in a world that doesn't always understand and appreciate our MAGIC.

“Your sensitivity is a superpower”. As an HSP how many times did you hear or read this phrase? How many times did you even say it to yourself or to the people around you? Countless times, right?
But let’s be honest for a moment. Do you really believe this? Do you really feel like your sensitivity is a superpower, a blessing, a gift you should love and celebrate? Well, you certainly feel it sometimes. But do you feel this all the time? Are you ALWAYS thankful you were born with this trait?
If your answer is “No”, don’t worry! You are certainly not alone. Most highly sensitive souls struggle with this. Far from feeling like a blessing, there are many times when we feel like our sensitivity is more like a curse, like something that makes us stand in our own way to success and to happiness.
But you know that your sensitivity should be a superpower, right? You are convinced it should. So, why doesn’t it feel like that most of the time?
Well, first of all, having a superpower is not always something easy to live with. I mean even Superman struggled with self-isolation and hiding his true identity behind Clark’s glasses, right?
But does it really have to be like this? Do you really have to struggle? What should you do to partner with your sensitivity, so it can truly become a superpower? Listen to this new episode to find out the answers to these questions and much more!
Lola explains why your sensitivity doesn't feel like a superpower yet, what is happening with our sensitivity in its pre-superpower state, what our real sensitive superpower is and much more. Plus, we teach you the art of being able to navigate as you are, without needing to toughen up and we reveal the three steps you should take in order to learn how to partner with your sensitivity.

“If you want a better life, you have to change your habits and improve your mindset.” How often did you hear this advice? And how does it make you feel deep inside? Do you resonate with it? Do you really believe that this would work for you?
Maybe your answer is “No”, or maybe you even tried to follow this advice and didn’t really get the results you expected. If that is the case, don’t worry! There is nothing wrong with you! It doesn’t mean that you don’t want to change, or that you don’t have what it takes to create positive changes in your life. You just need to go about it differently.
If you are an HSP or an empath your nervous system is different and more wired for protection. That means it can prevent you from going into an unfamiliar place or navigating uncertain territory just to keep you safe.
Even though you might try a new habit, and you might try some positive mindset techniques, if your nervous system doesn't feel safe with the success that those habits or patterns of thinking are going to lead to, then you are going to get in your own way.
So, what should you do instead? How can a highly sensitive soul feel empowered to create the life that they want and DESERVE to have? Listen to this new episode to find out the answers to these questions and much more!
Lola is going to explain how mainstream personal development advice can misdirect HSPs and empaths and why trying to change habits or mindset is totally backwards for neurodivergent people. She will also talk about some of the most common signs that your nervous system might be more wired for protection than you think. Plus, she will reveal a “manifestation” practice that will take you farther in a year than vision boarding ever could!

Setting and maintaining healthy boundaries sounds very challenging for a highly sensitive soul because our boundaries can be full of holes, confusing, or nonexistent. HSPs and empaths need healthy and solid boundaries to be able to create the deep CONNECTIONS their souls need.
Does the idea of boundaries sound kind of confusing to you? Is it hard for you to build healthy boundaries? Do you usually find it difficult to say “No,” just because you are afraid of hurting someone’s feelings or because you are always worried about what people think about you?
Well, you are not alone! Most highly sensitive people are struggling with this issue, operating with polarized boundaries that are toxic and unhealthy, instead of setting resilient ones.
The good news is that you have the power to CHANGE this and learn how to set and maintain healthy boundaries as a highly sensitive person.
In this week’s episode, Lola dives deep into what boundaries are, how they function, what they are made from and how they can help you become a better version of yourself. Plus, we’ll reveal some effective strategies to start building healthy boundaries that will help you develop your amazing POWER to create deep, genuine, and special connections.

Purpose is defined as “the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists.” Many of us spend lifetimes in the agonizing and sometimes elusive pursuit of purpose. We seek it in our jobs, personal lives, goals, and ambitions. But is purpose all it’s really cracked up to be? Is it a ‘missing link’ that can be found?
In this week’s episode, Lola breaks the myth around purpose by reminding us that sourcing a sense of belonging from what we do, and not from who we really are, is a trap. and that the real key to purpose lies in the alternative definition — “a person's sense of resolve or determination” (supported by resilience) — is the key.
If you feel like you’re stuck in an endless loop of trying to derive meaning from everyday drudgery that may be bordering on madness, this episode offers you a way out. You’ll discover how to build resilience and arm yourself with fortitude and awareness to ensure that you always stay in tune with who you really are, and what your true purpose is!

Gaslighting, a term you’ve probably seen thrown around quite a bit...but what does it actually mean? Gaslighting put simply, is a pattern of manipulation that causes someone to doubt themselves. Most of the time this comes from outside sources such as family, friends, co-workers, or even our intimate partners, but what if over time this pattern no longer comes from outside sources? What if we began to manipulate ourselves to sow the seeds of doubt in our own minds? Could you subconsciously begin to Gaslight yourself?
As empaths and sensitive souls, we are especially vulnerable to suffer from gaslighting. There is a multitude of ways that we can start to gaslight ourselves, so how do we identify them? How can we learn to decipher what thoughts are from our true selves, and what thoughts are conjured from our own self-doubt?
How do you stop over-rationalizing my intuition, and begin to trust your own gut feelings?
Luckily on this week’s podcast, Lola is going to answer all of these questions and give you tips on how to break free from your inner glass ceiling. Intentions and knowledge are as good as the requisite action, so be prepared to take smoke actionable steps and manifest a change to stop gaslighting yourself.

The modern workplace can feel overwhelming enough as an empath, not to mention landing the job to begin with! If you’re an empath or highly sensitive person, you may have experienced struggles with the job process. That’s why we are going to talk about navigating the workplace and answer why no one wants to hire you as an empath.
Many of us have experienced the dilemma of choosing to either be an empath and be true to ourselves, or to be employed. Finding that middle ground can feel unobtainable, so we default to disconnect from ourselves for the sake of employment. This is not only unhealthy, but disconnects us from our true self.
Empathy is currently the #1 skill being recruited in corporate America, which empaths have in spades! So why are empaths still struggling to find and maintain careers, get promotions, or even get paid their worth?
Are you ready to become an outrageously awesome hire?
In this week's episode, Lola explains why empaths struggle in the modern workplace, how to discover what feelings are your own and not someone else’s, finding a healthy place of empowerment, the importance of setting boundaries and their purpose, and establishing resilience as an empath. Prepare to learn how to feel your own feelings, connect to yourself, and to grow into your best work self.

Have you ever felt the need to please, placate, or help other people at the expense of your own needs or desires? This pattern is called people-pleasing, and in this episode, I’m going to show you how to stop people-pleasing in your own life.
Sometimes it can feel like you are locked into a battle of either making yourself happy OR making everyone else happy. This is a reality that many empaths and highly sensitive people face on a daily basis.
Because you can feel other people’s emotions and energies so strongly, shielding yourself from their unhappiness, unease, judgment, and misunderstandings through subconscious people-pleasing is a way that your nervous system helps you feel safe.
So, how can you talk about things or make decisions that could be triggering, upsetting, or insight judgment from other people, without being paralyzed by their discomfort?
Are you ready to learn how to stop people-pleasing?
In this week’s episode, Lola explains exactly what people-pleasing is, why we subconsciously do it, the “shadow” side of people-pleasing, and how to let go of taking responsibility for other people's feelings. Get ready to take a deep dive into one of your nervous system’s most confusing defense mechanisms!

Have you noticed that the neurodivergent and Empath/HSP communities are often intertwined?
From common experiences to similar diagnoses popping up throughout the lives of Sensitive Souls, each of us is made brilliant by our divergence from “the norms” of society.

In this week’s episode, Lola reminds us to follow the path to liberation — whatever that may look like for you as an individual — and offers insight into how and why neurodivergence and being an empath go hand in hand. If you’re a part of the neurodivergent and/or Empath/HSP communities…you may actually belong to both spaces. Why? Listen in to find out!

Financial trauma is real and it affects so many of us! Even when we make a conscious effort to move from a space of logic, our nervous system holds onto the memory of our experiences — both good and bad — which can disrupt our income.
So what do you do when your body has created a non-beneficial relationship with money in an attempt to keep you safe? Before you can make (and keep) money, your nervous system must have the capacity to hold it!
In this episode, Lola and Kimberly dive into the topic of money and the nervous system. Once you learn to identify how money patterns and financial trauma have affected your nervous system responses, you can step into the frequency of abundance. Take charge of your finances and work alongside your nervous system to create the financial freedom you deserve!

Imagine what it will feel like when you shift from being overwhelmed, numb, resentful, and burnt out to resilient, confident, energized, generous, and purpose-full.
It is possible! Are you ready to live like that all the time?
In this week’s episode, Lola shares some of the first steps toward discovering your Authentic Self and bringing your Resilient Rockstar ways into the world sustainably.
A life half lived is not what your soul is asking of you. A life where you make yourself small is not the life that was meant for you. By intentionally partnering with your nervous system, you can honor and then LET GO of old protection and coping mechanisms, creating room for your gifts to truly thrive.

If you think that making money is all that affects your financial state, it’s time to transform your perception!
Our relationship with money has a remarkable impact on our monetary resources—not to mention the emotional, mental, and energetic impact that money has on our lives!
When we unearth the root of how we as individuals connect to earning, spending, and pricing everyday necessities and pleasures, we can unpack the non-beneficial aspects of our relationship with money. Understanding how we view money, how we relate to money, and how we FEEL about money are key components to living a life of abundance.
This week’s episode shatters the myth of an “abundance mindset” and guides us, once again, out of our heads and back into our bodies. Lola helps us understand the responses of our Central Nervous System and how to reprogram our way of being to work alongside our sensitivities—rather than against them—and truly embody the MAGIC of making money!

To build a strong foundation for any relationship we must intentionally create and hold space for intimacy, integrity, and harmony. We must show up for ourselves just as much as we show up for our partner.

As a culture, we have lost the capacity to cultivate stillness.
Societal programming has moved us into a mindset of DOING rather than BEING, and many of us feel like we’re running out of time and space to rest. But as our guest speaker so beautifully explained, “It is our birthright to deeply rest.”
In this week’s episode, we are blessed by the inspiring presence of Tracee Stanley—author, yoga instructor, and facilitator of rest. Tracee invites us to experience the radiance that follows when we choose to prioritize stillness and shares with us the tools she uses to support herself and others on this journey!
Listen in as Lola and Tracee discuss the importance of embracing quiet in a loud world!
Tracee Stanley was introduced to the practice of yoga nidra in 2001. She immediately recognized it as a healing salve for the world and began to incorporate it into her life and her yoga teaching.
She left her high-stress career as a Hollywood film producer to delve deeper into the study of the practices that were empowering and rejuvenating her, so she could share them with others.
With over 20 years of experience practice and teaching in the Himalayan Tradition, Tantra and Sri Vidya, she also understands the demands of life as an entrepreneur, wife, and stepmom. Her effortless way of sharing ancient teachings in accessible ways is her superpower.
She travels extensively to offer yoga nidra, meditation, self-inquiry, teacher trainings and workshops. RADIANT REST published by Shambhala Publishing is her first book.

Negative self-talk doesn't start in the mind, it emerges as a result of the inner conditions of the BODY. In this episode, Lola shows how the TYPE of negative self-talk that you tend toward can point to your nervous system's state and the ways you're unconsciously protecting yourself.

As sensitive souls—especially those with traumatic pasts—we would do anything NOT to be predatory.
And yet, accessing our inner predator can be a key to liberating ourselves from abuse, toxicity, and boundarylessness. In this conversation, Kimberly and Lola talk about how to neutralize the energy of "predator" and move it from a purely mental concept into an essential way of embodying our power. We also talk about how our nervous system states can be discovered (and partnered with) by understanding our biology and physiology; including the role of our fascia and the type of fascia we each have.
Kimberly dives into this and much more in her brand new book, Call of the Wild, which is out now! Please visit your favorite bookseller and pick up a copy; it offers a real-world understanding of the Nervous System; offering us tools and perspectives to help us step more fully into healthy power.
Kimberly is a Sexological Bodyworker, Somatic Experiencing trauma resolution practitioner, yoga teacher trainer, birth doula, and single mom.
She is the author of Call of the Wild: How We Heal Trauma, Awaken Our Own Power and Use It for Good as well as the early mothering classic, The Fourth Trimester.

Have you ever wondered HOW to get your partner, friends, or family members to try the things that have worked for you?
Whether it's working with tarot cards, learning about being an empath, or other ways we've found healing, it's natural to want to share what's worked for us with our loved ones. We want them to feel good, right? Of course! And yet, we're often dismissed or rejected when we bring these things to their attention - because the way we do it usually creates imbalanced power dynamics in the relationship.
In this episode, Lola walks through how to "coach" your partner to try the things that have worked for you, without coaching them at all. We also spend a few moments of silence to honor the six Asian women who were killed in Atlanta, GA on March 16th.

What feels comfortable is often NOT what's actually good for us. So how do we stay centered when we're activated? How can we tell when we're telling ourselves a lie and be able to hold ourselves through inconvenient truths? In the episode, Lola will help you find your center, discern what's in alignment with your inner Self, and invite you to explore your soul's purpose with her in this week's Purpose Playshop.

Is it safe, or even responsible, to share your soul work with your dear friends?
In this episode, Jason shares what happened when, as a friend of many years to both Lola and Tigre, he said YES to some of their deepest work... First an adventure in Peru. Then, an Alchemical mentorship, and finally Empathology...
Was it ever awkward to exchange money for gifts offered? Was it weird to be in such vulnerable spaces together? Jason and Lola spill the beans on what can happen when business and friendship mix.

Typical business advice does NOT usually work for Empaths and HSPs.
Because of how we process emotions and other sensory information, we have different needs than most; both in terms of MOTIVATION and RESILIENCE. This is why most online business courses and entrepreneurship trainings fall short for us. It's not that there's something wrong with US; it's that typical guidance doesn't include the highly sensitive folks.
So, if you've had a hard time with "marketing", sales, or other ESSENTIAL business functions, this is an episode for you. A must-listen for any empath who runs or wants to run their own business, Lola covers the 5 key elements of running a successful business as an HSP or empath.
If this episode resonates, then it's a good indication that Empathology will help you fill in the gaps left behind by the other courses you've taken. Armed with resilience for success, visibility, and boundaries, you'll finally be able to succeed in business on YOUR terms.

Style isn't just a superficial exploration. In this conversation, stylist Dacy Gillespie and Lola explore how clearing your closet and wearing your soul on your sleeve is actually deeply therapeutic and healing.
As a personal stylist, Dacy Gillespie intuitively guides her clients to discover what they feel best in. She helps them let go of the external messages they’ve been given about what they should wear and get to the heart of what’s making them uncomfortable about their clothes. Through their work building a functional wardrobe, Dacy’s clients make a mindset shift from thinking they need to wear what’s flattering to unapologetically taking up space in the world.
Dacy's an introvert, a highly-sensitive person, an INFJ, a Human Design projector, an empath, and a Cancer. While all that means that she's constantly overwhelmed by emotion and sensory overload, it also means that she's super-intuitive about seeing what’s going on with other people and super-empathetic, which comes in handy when clients have to get vulnerable with her.
After a lifetime of jobs in high-stress careers that didn’t suit her personality, Dacy started mindful closet in 2013 in an attempt to create a more emotionally sustainable lifestyle. She has two boys, ages 2 and 6, and a husband she adores who is well aware of her mental load.

Do you ever crave to just "get away from it all"—for good? Well, Johanna and her family have done just that, and have found that living off the grid offers both nervous system peace AND little distraction from all the feels that we sensitive souls have access to. Listen in on this fascinating and fun conversation about disconnection from materialism, consumerism, and so many other "isms," all in the name of a brave, authentic, and simplified—but far from easy—lifestyle.
Johanna is an ecofeminist writer and collage artist. She is the author of fabulist novella Mama & the Hungry Hole (Wordcraft of Oregon, 2015) and the poetry chapbook, Gestation (Finishing Line Press, 2020). Her surrealist collages appear on the most recent covers of Stonecoast Review and Taos International Journal of Poetry and Art. Originally from New York, she creates from her off-grid strawbale home in northern New Mexico where she is spellbound by the energy vortex of Taos Mountain.

Lola and her husband Tigre sit down to share their thoughts, feelings, and reflections on the US election, the state of our society, and how they stay stay centered as sensitive souls amidst such chaos, uncertainty, and intensity.
This is a no-holds barred look at the problems we're facing as a collective, and a call for sensitive souls to build the resilience not only to hear potentially challenging points of view, but to be resilient enough to stand up against oppression, repression, and white-body supremacy in small and large ways. We don't have the luxury of being sick of these topics. So, let's face them head on, shall we?

What does Self Love actually look like in our daily lives?
How do we love ourselves and each other better in such challenging times? Lola sat down with Self Love explorer, writer, and influencer Aubree Nichols for this very vulnerable, very casual convo about opening to living and loving more fully when it could be temping to shut down instead.
Aubree has a black belt in truth-telling. She hails from Texas, but this feminine feminist finds comfort in the sunshine, green juice and hellacious traffic of Los Angeles, California. Her writing for The Week, Observer and Elite Daily has made her a resonant voice in the self-love movement, which she believes is the ultimate love story. That said, the pioneer of mobile dating is swiping right in hopes of finding her S.O. She believes that love can change the world.
She has a M.A. in Organizational Change, and for her day job she cultivates community and ignites creativity within organizations with her proprietary workshop, Stoked!.

Mentor to 6- and 7-figure women entrepreneurs, Sigrun reveals how to step through limiting beliefs and create ANYTHING in your life. Listen to her story as she shares how she became absolutely unstoppable - and the impact of the positive, powerhouse role models in her life. She has continued to say yes to herself, to put herself at the "table", and to decide that whatever she dreams of doing, she CAN do. Now, she empowers women around the world to believe and BE the same.
Sigrun is on a mission to accelerate gender equality through female entrepreneurship. She is the leading business mentor for female online entrepreneurs in Europe, TEDx speaker, and host of the Sigrun Show podcast. Originally from Reykjavik, Iceland, she has spent more than half her life outside her home country; in Germany, United Kingdom, and Switzerland. Since she was a young girl she’s always been drawn to leadership roles, so despite having zero business background nor the education she made a life-changing phone call and asked to become the CEO of a software company shortly after finishing her master’s degree in architecture – and she got the job!
Ten years, another three master’s degrees, and several CEO roles later, Sigrun found herself in Switzerland with her newfound love but sick and unemployable. Her dream was to be location independent so she could spend time in Iceland and Switzerland, travel the world, and take care of her health. So in 2014, Sigrun started her online business and within 4 years she built a 7 figure business helping women from all over the world.
Sigrun’s motto is: Be Inspired. Think Big. Take Action.

Is there such thing as a "bad question"? We're often told that there isn't... And while that might be somewhat true, there ARE more (and less) powerful questions to ask of ourselves and others... Questions that can interrupt and interfere with ingrained patterns and default settings. Questions that can stimulate intimacy with ourselves and others. Are you interested in asking more powerful questions, or as Dyana calls them, REAL questions?
Learn how to tell the difference for yourself, and receive your own "divine interference" as Dyana oh so lovingly interferes with Lola's questions and word choices.

The diversity of folks in our community of Resilient Rockstars is incredibly inspiring. Today, meet opera singer and healing voice creatrix C.A. Jordan. C.A. and Lola dive into how C.A. knew that she needed to boost her resilience, what brought her into the Empathology community, and what it's now possible for her to create, thanks to her newly boosted boundaries.
Praised by San Francisco Classical Voice as a “strikingly appealing, outstanding, accomplished performer,” and by Performing Arts Monterey Bay as a ”gifted vocal artist who sings with an unfettered authority…”, Soprano Carolyne Anne Jordan has sung roles with West Edge Opera, Mission City Opera, Open Opera, Livermore Valley Opera, and Goat Hall Productions, showcasing her versatility in roles by Britten, Mozart, and Puccini, among others. Miss Jordan has also performed with the San Francisco Opera Chorus, BASOTI program, the West Coast Opera Workshop, and the Opera Scenes Program at Holy Names College. Equally in demand as a concert artist, she has performed in such far-flung locations as Yosemite National Park and Antigua, Guatemala.
Throughout her singing career, one of the comments she most often receives is how good the listener feels when she sings. Being a natural-born “helper,” and realizing there was a way she could help others while using her voice, C.A. decided to focus specifically on singing healing music and meditations, while still performing classical music when possible. Most recently she sang in a live-streamed concert in late August, 2020, for which she also served as Artistic Director. Upcoming projects include a recorded meditation series which will be available by the end of 2020.
In addition to her teaching, solo, and voiceover work, she has enjoyed collaborations with several international electronic music artists, including composing and recording vocals with Addex, Vernon & DaCosta, and Manuel Tur.

One of the most important results students receive from my EMPATH*ology™ course is learning to TRUST their purpose... and Edy is one of those students.
Edy is daring to re-imagine style and fashion, creating cutting edge designs that are just as un-mainstream (but down to earth) as she is. By learning how to support her nervous system in Empathology this Spring, she has been able to show up more visibly online, more courageously with her designs, and trust her intuition when it comes to it all.
Listen in to my encouraging, inspiring conversation with Edy Sayles about what becomes possible when you embrace the gifts of your sensitivity through the work that we offer in EMPATH*ology™.
Edy is an empathic wearable art designer who sees the act of adornment as an expression of how we feel about ourselves. She uses her love of all things meaningful and mystical along with double decade’s worth of sewing and design skills to create pieces that reflect the messy and spiritual processes of finding self-love, self-acceptance, and self-expression, while reaching for parts of ourselves that might currently only be available in the realm of imagination.
She is learning how to accept, love, and harness her gifts and wants to help people use clothing as an embodiment tool to embrace and reflect their own divinity. She is fascinated by the ways our daily dress choices affect what we perceive as our identity and how that translates to what we believe is possible in our lives. She is currently dreaming up new projects in hopes of stitching together her passion for self-reflection, trauma healing, empath empowerment, and emotional embodiment through creative dress.

Fleur Chambers is an internationally recognized meditation teacher. Her guided meditations and online courses have been dowloaded 750,000 times in over 30 countries around the world.
More recently, Fleur has created The Happy Habit app, a roadmap for happiness, even amidst the pressure and uncertainty of adult life. Happiness not in the form of smiles and laughter, but in the form of greater presence during the good times, and resilience during the stressful times.
Her story of living with chronic pain allows others to see that it’s possible to enjoy life, despite disappointments and set-backs. But more than this, her work illustrates that amidst challenges, there are gifts in the form of greater self-compassion, understanding and acceptance. Through warm hearted curiosity and a quiet determination, Fleur has allowed her pain to guide her towards her greater purpose.
Her gift lies in creating opportunities for people to connect with the deeper parts of themselves, the parts who feel calm, optimistic, purposeful and resilient. The parts of themselves who believe that happiness is possible, that they are worth the effort.
Fleur is grateful for everyday, the parts she planned and the parts which caught her by surprise.

Mazin Jamal and Lola explore some of the biggest questions we face today as individuals and as a collective in this thought-provoking, visionary conversation.
What does nature have to teach us about resilience? If we look at racism as a virus, how can it accelerate our collective healing? Mazin also reveals the real roots of the song "Kumbaya" and why it's far more than a utopian hippie ideal.
Sensitive souls ARE designed for leadership, and we're going to need every possible tool and resource to rise up and co-create a new, more holistic paradigm. As you listen, may you find yourself more equipped and empowered for your journey.
Mazin Jamal a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Skills Trainer, and an integrity coach for successful leaders in social change.

He describes his global experience of connecting with people's deepest vision for their community in the world as momentously humbling and endlessly inspiring. It gives him the capacity to relate to the identities we are cast into and wear, race, gender, class, culture, etc, beyond the Modern American scope, and help people connect to the vast and ancient ancestry of possibility within all of us.
Mazin believes that being a leader in today's world is a call to self-mastery on a personal and spiritual level, and collective growth. As the founder of Holistic Underground, he supports the mission of bringing social movement-leaders of different backgrounds together in a space of growth, belonging and purpose.

Parenting as an empath and HSP is complex and challenging; especially if your child(ren) are also highly sensitive.
In this episode, Lola chats with Hannah and Kelty of upbringing.co about raising empowered empaths when you, too, are an empath. Their RESIST model of parenting shares 6 powers you can amplify in your children; or youself if you are not a parent. Even if you don't have children yourself, this episode shears ways that we can speak more kindly internally, resource ourselves when nerves get fried, and communicate our needs and boundaries in grounded, compassionate ways.
Hannah and Kelty are twins, mothers and feminist co-hosts of the podcast and parenting resource Upbringing. Certified in Simplicity Parenting, Positive Discipline and trained in the respectful parenting approach, RIE, Hannah & Kelty are leading a movement that empowers parents to grow up alongside their kids for sanity and social change.
They believe that nurturing kids’ inner wisdom and authority — so often expressed via their resistance— can be a brave and beautiful way to raise a generation of activists, empaths, disruptors and change-makers! Hannah and Kelty's work is grounded in the Resist Approach, a progressive parenting practice that replaces conventional discipline with 6 alternative powers, designed to nurture our kids' innate freedoms and authentic spirits. They're growing up alongside their kids on a farm outside Portland, OR that they share with their partners and kids- ages 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Your soulful and heart-centered thriving and joy are essential ingredients to a revolution of consciousness.
But, if you've had a hard time manifesting success, it may be because the "Law of Attraction" often falls short for BBIPoC and Highly Sensitive people. This concept doesn't take into account factors such as trauma, nervous system overwhelm, or white privilege.
There IS a way to gain unseen support for your dreams and desires, and Darla Antoine helps illuminate that path for us all. Enjoy our rich conversation, which is more relevant than ever as we take a hard look at problematic cultural issues like spiritual bypassing and systemic racism. When you listen to this episode, you'll discover just how deeply supported you ARE in creating a beautiful life.
Darla is a feminist copywriter and spiritual worker who believes in the power of words-- and in taking the time to find just the right words. She works with culture-changing, earth-tending, feminist and socially-conscious entrepreneurs who want to expand their message and fill their programs without predatory, manipulative or culturally appropriated language.
Instead, she shows you how to use vision, values and earned credibility to powerfully invite your clients into a transformative experience . . . with a heaping teaspoon of behind-the-scenes Word Magic to help amplify your message.

What does it mean to "belong"? And how, as White women, can we belong to ourselves and each other, knowing the damage that our ancestors wrought AND the internalized patriarchy and racism that we still carry inside us?
This conversation goes deep into ways to embrace the fullness of who we are and where we came from, re-ignite our relationship with rituals of the Earth, and tend to our spirits, so that we can stand in solidarity with our BIPOC kindred and dismantle together the systems of oppression that create and benefit from inequality.

She holds space for womxn to explore ancestral wisdom, connect with the earth, and find meaningful and inclusive sisterhood.

When we were kids, most of us couldn't wait to grow up. But, once we became adults, the magic seemed to evaporate, right?
Replaced by paying bills, heavy responsibilities, and a distinct lack of FUN... being grown up might not be all it was cracked up to be, but it doesn't have to stay that way!
In this laughter-filled, truth-bomb-dropping episode, Ebonie and Lola riff on how to bring play back into our adult lives and what responsibility actually brings us (when we choose it fully).
Ebonie Allard is an award winning International Coach. She’s a Misfit turned Maven, an author, an artist, and an advocate. She’s the creator of The Misfit to Maven Way, The Value Filter system and host of the popular podcast ‘Adulting, with Ebonie.’ She empowers self selected Misfits to create businesses and lives as unique and extraordinary as they are; that genuinely feel as good on the inside as they perhaps look on the outside.

Even if you've never thought of yourself as the "entrepreneurial" type, this episode with Lola and Tigre's mentor James might change your mind.
We're not trained to think outside the box in this culture; we're trained to be employees. But that doesn't mean we can't learn how to write our own rules, get out of our own way, and succeed on our terms.
Besides, for most empaths and HSPs, the "box" REALLY doesn't function well for us, right? If you're wondering HOW to succeed in ways that light you up without draining your Spirit, then this potent conversation is just what medicine woman ordered.
When you listen, you'll discover the REAL purpose of goal setting, how to know if your dreams are too small, and what becomes possible when you decide to own your story.
For 10 years, James Wedmore taught entrepreneurs and online business owners how to leverage the power of online video and YouTube marketing to reach more people, share their message and convert more customers.
In 2016, James made a massive shift to focus on a big gap missing in the marketplace: the mindset needed for entrepreneurship. He launched a totally woo-woo podcast, the Mind Your Business Podcast and his signature program, Business By Design. Today he helps coaches, experts, content creators, and authors not only to craft better marketing messages but also how to ditch the “hustle” mentality and create success from the inside out.

After seeing highly sensitive clients for a decade (and being an HSP Empath herself), Lola noticed some significant patterns that are very common to highly sensitive people and empaths, almost as though they were side effects of their sensitivity.
And yet she couldn't find anything to adequately describe this phenomenon.
After extensive research, she coined the phrase Empath Stress Disorder and developed her proprietary EMPATH*ology Method™ to help her clients develop the resilience they need so they can resolve ESD at the root: by supporting, retraining, and learning from their nervous systems.
Do you have ESD? Listen to this episode and find out if you fit the profile, plus discover how EMPATH*ology can help you FINALLY step into your soul purpose.
Lola Pickett trains empathic leaders to be “full spectrum” resilient, so they can confidently keep their hearts open, their bodies healthy, and BE the change they want to see in the world.

One of the most important results students receive from my EMPATH*ology™ course is a release of nervous system imbalance and April is one of those students.
That release started in a way she was not expecting, starting with radical changes in the most important relationships in her life and her relationship with sleep.
Listen in to my life-changing conversations with April Bock about how your intuition is directing you, trusting your inner voice, and the surprising results that can happen in your life when you learn to support your highly sensitive nervous system through the work that we offer in EMPATH*ology™.
April Bock is Certified Coach who spent her life hiding who she really was. Through her journey of self-acceptance, she decided it was time to break free from what held her back, embrace who she was and become the woman she was always meant to be. It was in this journey, that she decided to pursue the coaching avenue. She wants to help others reach goals, break boundaries and re-design their life to capture what matters most.
She is also the co-founder of Harmony on the Homefront, an organization that equips women to engage in their communities while raising awareness of the distinct needs of the first-responder and military family.

Adriana is a songwriter, painter, poet, and mama bear.
She comes onto the show today with her tale of coming home to her soul self... a process that she's still in the murky middle of. (Aren't we all??)
Before taking one of Lola's trainings in early 2019, Adriana had no idea that she was an empath OR a highly sensitive person, but she was struggling mightily with what she discovered to be the side effects of "Empath Stress Disorder"; Lola's term for a set of conditions that many empaths and HSPS struggle with; including people-pleasing, perfectionism, procrastination, fear of success, and anxiety. These paralyzing, frustrating forms of self-protection were holding Adriana back from showing up fully in her life. She decided to join EMPATH*ology and has since gone on to discover just how resilient she can be.
She shares one of her poems in progress below:
I am a storyteller
A muse
An earth loving goddess
Unveiling truths
I hold wisdom inside
That is ready to be shared
No time to hide
Even though I am scared
I am rooted and strong
My roots growing deep
Into this Earth
That is mine to upkeep
My own unique light
My blossoming lotus flower
Grown from the muddy
And murky , dark waters
I am a songwriter
Composing her tunes
As they blow in with codes
Like sands blow on the dunes
The life of creation
I am playing my part
Singing my soul song
Harmoniously from the heart
Now clarity arriving
As I blossom like a rose
And begin thriving
From my head to my toes
I am a storyteller
Writing from the place
Of which Alinea Rose
Is the name of my space
The space of myself
The inner child within
That wants to come play
With simply the joy to begin
Bringing magic and awe
Back to this earth
As I channel the message
Through the portal of purpose
Stepping into my wisdom
Even though I am nervous
I am offering my gifts
How may I be of service?
Adriana's soul self journey began through childbirth; branching into art, reading tarot, Reiki, storytelling, and songwriting - all of which have opened doors to the knowledge and wisdom she carries inside.
She's in the messy middle of her journey, and it is scary as anything. Yet, she is pulled forward by the possibilities and excitement of it all, the thrill of stretching into the edge of herself.
Her purpose is helping others heal on their own journey, in the process helping humanity step into higher consciousness.

I am bringing you a story of personal reclamation of taking back one's integrity and totally changing the direction of her relationship, and also how she shows up as a nurse in her profession.
This woman is so powerful and so brave in her willingness to look at her patterns of compensation - the way that she used to live when things felt intense the way that she used to cover it all up with just trying to convince herself and everybody else around her. How does she hold herself with compassion? How does she set her boundaries differently? How does she go about figuring out what she even needs in order to have the courage to then ask for those needs to be met?
Here's a fantastic Resilience Rockstar conversation with EMPATHology™ graduate Christine Mattappillil and the key pieces that she received from working through the course work. Learn how Christine breathed life into the practices and behavioral shifts that her EMPATHology™ training taught her. Feel the deep, systemic, physiological, nervous system transformation that she's now been able to achieve.
Christine is a recovering emotional escape artist wildly in love with life and the pursuit of muchness. Christine is also a somatic Empath who uses her healing abilities professionally as a registered nurse working with cancer patients. She is passionate about Ayurveda as well as alternative holistic therapies and intends to normalize Eastern medicine in the conventional West on her journey to becoming a Nurse Practitioner. When she’s not in her scrubs, Christine can be found doing yoga, nurturing her plant babies, exploring with her partner-in-Love and gently urging people to live their best life!
