The holidays are not a Hallmark movie, they’re more like a group text with too many people and not enough boundaries.
In this Thanksgiving episode of The Luminous Life Podcast, Erika and Marcella talk about:
Learning to say no after years of being the “of course, I’ll be there!” friend
Splitting every holiday between two families in one day (and why that stopped fast)
Hosting 25–30 people and tweaking traditions so you don’t hate the day
Dressing the table instead of dressing yourself and why that’s enough this year
Feeling the pressure to look perfect while you’re sweating in the kitchen
Giving yourself permission to make Thanksgiving what you need this season
Hit play if you’re feeling the weight of expectations and want a new script for the holidays, one that’s honest, grounded, and a little silly… like choosing pumpkin pie for the texture and still calling apple “the best pie.”

Cervixes, Psychics & Spooky Season: When Your Pelvic Floor and Beliefs Collide

Cervixes, Psychics & Spooky Season: When Your Pelvic Floor and Beliefs Collide
What do pelvic floor therapy, psychic readings, and haunted houses have in common?
Turns out… more than you’d think.
In this unfiltered episode, Erika shares a deeply personal (and hilariously candid) experience with cervical prolapse and what she learned from her urogynecologist about women’s health, body awareness, and aging with grace. From red light therapy to vaginal estrogen, no topic is off-limits.
Then, the conversation turns to spiritual guidance, astrology, and belief systems—what happens when you’re looking for signs in a hard season of life. And finally, the duo debate “spooky season,” why some of us love cozy fall vibes while others would rather skip the haunted house entirely.
From the anatomy of self-care to the energy of faith and fun, this episode is proof that the Luminous Life really is about beauty without the BS.
