Happy Yuletide Dear Listeners. I'm back with a final Solo episode of the year to offer some guidance and support in SHEDDING & RELEASING what you are ready to leave behind and begin to CREATE YOUR VISION for the future you desire to live in. I offered these insights in a workshop I held for Women Waken listeners (another is coming for vision boarding in the New Year if you're interested). I break it down into a 3 step process to establish the shedding (What/Why/ & How) and then some specific exercises you can do to facilitate the process of releasing old thought systems, energy, and tension from the body. Finally I introduce the art of vision boarding and how to begin that manifesting & inspiration process.
I know this has been a tough year for many of us. My hope is that this episode offers some helpful insights and options on how to affirm that a higher experience is possible, especially for you! You deserve the greatest joy, love, peace, safety, and protection. Don't hold back, dream up the greatest expression of life you can imagine....it can be yours!!

It's a tale we all know so well. Working hard and diligently building the life you think you're supposed to want—the career, a marriage, a carefully crafted plan. And then everything came crashing down. My guest this week, Becca Eve Young, knows all to well how this story goes. Because she lived it. Her marriage unraveled. She was laid off while alone in a foreign country as a global pandemic hit. Then, just when she thought it couldn't get worse, she gets the call that her father died. Stranded in rural Mexico, cracked open by grief, she experienced a supernatural encounter under the full moon that set her on a wild, often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking journey. From car crashes and chaotic hookups, to silent meditation retreats, psychedelic revelations, robberies, and mystical moments—this is what happens when life blows up and a woman dares to say yes to becoming someone new.
On this guest episode, Becca and I have a lively conversation exploring the concepts and details of her story. I had the privilege to read her book and adored its vibrant tone and how her Soul came through the words on the page. Becca shares about her journey in a raw, hilarious, and deeply human way. She tells us about her experience of how what began as a freefall became a wild quest to untangle grief, rewrite old stories, and rediscover her own worth. Together we share stories and anecdotes of life on the spiritual path and offer insights and guidance for anyone who’s ever felt lost in their own life and is searching for more.
BIO:
Becca Eve Young is a former corporate strategist turned soulful storyteller and devoted to the art of becoming. After a plot twist (or five), she walked away from the societal shoulds to reclaim her voice. Her work lives at the raw intersections of growth, healing, and reinvention—delivered with humor, heart, and a spiritual spark. Her debut book, "It's Gonna Get Messy" is an unfiltered true story of heartbreak, healing and reinvention with a profound supernatural twist. The heart of her story is rooted in ditching the societal script and becoming your most soulful, authentic self. When she’s not guiding others through identity shifts in starting their entrepreneurial career or coaching them in finding meaning in the messiness of life, you’ll find her barefoot on a surfboard, writing in cozy cafes, and chasing the kind of freedom you can feel in your bones.

Many women feel invisible or silenced during hard seasons. Putting pressure on themselves to suck it up and push through. My guest this week, Heidi Schalk, believes that visibility is a healing and transformational act for women and she wants to help get them there. Heidi's story is incredibly powerful — from single motherhood and burnout to rebuilding your life and business. Heidi Schalk is the co-founder of HLH Growth Solutions, an author, speaker, and host of two top-ranking shows: The Be S.H.E. Podcast (Be Seen. Be Heard.

She also talks about the moment that sparked her own awakening & transformation the led her to create the Be S.H.E podcast to encourage Women to be seen, heard, and empowered. Heidi offers advice for Women who feel called to lead but are terrified to be visible and how women can step into leadership without falling into the patterns of competition, perfectionism, or self-sacrifice. And she tells how healing and inner work influenced her business success in building multiple businesses both B2C and B2B and now running a successful growth agency. Finally, together we discuss how burnout is not as a time problem, but an alignment problem and why so many women struggle with receiving love, money, support, & visibility and how to shift that.

There are Two Ways to Live Life; as a victim of circumstance or as the badass you really are. My guest this week, Erin Brennan, has lived by and embodied this mantra throughout her life. She reminds up that the choice is ours - you can react to life's curveballs or you can grab them and throw them back. Because when you embrace the unknown, you play by your rules. Erin is a Creative Consultant who blends the worlds of brand strategy, design thinking, linguistics, neuroscience, and a few other things to help her clients move mountains. She also believes in magic and tries to sprinkle it into the lives of others often.
On this week episode, Erin and I have way too much fun talking entrepreneurship, tapping into our authentic creativity, and why It takes guts to stand out. Even more so to stand still long enough to hear what your soul’s been trying to say. Erin shares how uncertainty can hold us back, but what if it's the key? Erin talks about her lifetime of navigating chronic health issues: getting sick at 16 and diagnosed with a genetic disorder that made her confront who she wanted to be and how she wanted to live her life early on. And a fellow traveler, she speaks of traveling around the world, packing up everything sge owned and spend 3 years living out of a suitcase traveling the world.
BIO:
Erin Brennan believes the best way through life's messiest moments is to embrace them. With a subtle shift in perspective, she invites you to find possibility in the unknown, if you're brave enough to show up and say yes. Her work challenges you to swap certainty for curiosity. Through her decision-making frameworks, Erin helps you shift unconscious belief patterns using a combination of psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, quantum physics (and magic) to find freedom from fear and uncertainty to reclaim your power.
It was her own journey, navigating serious health challenges, starting her own creative agency in 2010, and pursuing a life on her own terms, that she learned, on the other side of fear is freedom. Erin is currently working on her first documentary, asking: What if chasing your wildest dreams meant staring down your biggest fears? Erin is known for delivering tough love, unfiltered honest insights, and just enough magic to help people get out of their own way to live life on their own terms.

People tend to feel one way or another about the practice of visualization. They either think it's bullshit or that it's the first step of the sacred creation process towards manifesting your heart's desires. I for one am big on visualization. Each morning I meditate and devote time to visualizing 3 things: My life with a Soul Mate, accomplishing goals I'm working to achieve, and living in the home I will one day have. I know that the better I can see it with my mind's eye and feel the experiences energetically, the faster they will arrive in my life.
On this Divine Feminine solo episode, I share more about the powerful benefits of developing a visualization practice. How it can not only help you formulate and conceptualize what you really want, it can also enable you to begin to feel what it would be like to be in the energy of having what you desire in your lives. Then it's only a matter of bringing the energy into physicality and, Bam! Manifestation! I offer ways to begin a practice of visualization, different types of visualizing, and how to work with the creation process.

What does being a Mother mean to you? Have you ever stopped to think about it? Predominately we think of a Woman who has had a child and is caring for and raising that beautiful being.

It's remarkable how naturally Humans tend to take things for granted. So often we yearn & yearn for something, only to dismiss it once we get it & ask, "what's next?" When we neglect to take time to appreciate the things we have in our lives, what we have achieved and who we have become, we miss out on the glory of delighting in & enjoying ourselves and the gifts we possess. The definition of appreciation is expressed admiration and approval. This is what we want to start offering ourselves, in all situations, if we're ready to begin truly coming into our own Divine Feminine light of love & peace with ourselves.
On today's Identify & Heal Solo episode, I offer ways to identify the mental patterns we develop that keep us focused on lack & scarcity and ways to shift them to see the assets and value present instead. Then I explore deeper into what it means to truly appreciate something and how it can be the game changer in bringing about true abundance & the life we've always dreamed of having.

As someone who has officially (gulp) reached mid-life, I can say that despite some of the daunting realizations (I got old??) there are so many wonderful REVElations that occur. One of them being that we have a ton of learned wisdom to share. My guest this week, Katie Rose, wrote her most recent book, Yoni Codes: Reclaim the Power to Heal, by taking inventory of her life and sharing the ways she had found to heal, grow, and persevere. Katie Rose is a yoga teacher, Ayurvedic educator, and author based in Sydney, Australia. Over the past 30 years she has taught and mentored thousands of women, published several books, and built a global community of over 28,000. Her book grew from her own experiences of trauma and healing, and explores how women can access their own codes of power through Ayurveda, ritual, and goddess archetypes. At its heart, it’s about how when we heal ourselves, we heal lineages — and how reclaiming the feminine can bring profound change.
On this guest episode, Katie shares about how the yoni is both a physical and spiritual gateway and how she sees modern women reclaiming this sacred power in everyday life. She also speaks to how her book blends yoga philosophy, Ayurveda, and personal storytelling and why she wove these threads together as well as the recurring wounds & themes she noticed after working with thousands of women through Bhakti Rose. Together we discuss why women’s communities and circles are so powerful for healing, how ancient practices like Ayurveda and yoga support trauma recovery, & the importance of women speaking uncensored truths.

Humans are not meant to merely survive. We were born to THRIVE. To live into our full, pure potential as a spark of the Divine Universe. My guest this week, Stephanie Nelson, holds this truth dearly. Yet she also recognizes that if we're being honest with ourselves, the grind and pressure of life not only feels far from thriving, it can seem nearly unlivable. The stress. The pain. The exhaustion. The endless cycle of doing, overdoing, and abandoning yourself just to keep up. Feeling constantly on edge—dysregulated, overwhelmed, disconnected from who you really are. Stephanie wants Women of the World to know that you're not broken. You're not lazy. You're not too sensitive. Your nervous system is sounding the alarm—and you’ve never been taught how to listen.
On this guest episode Stephanie shares her wisdom on what anxiety really is, how Anxiety, depression, and other struggles aren’t flaws or disorders, they’re survival strategies. She also speaks to the losing game of stress reduction and stress healing vs. stress reduction, how nervous system harmony unlocks healing, and how Stephanie facilitates nervous system harmony rather than regulation. In her words "you can’t regulate your way out of dysregulation". Nervous system healing helps shift patterns like chronic pain, anxiety, gut issues, ADHD, and perfectionism. She also breaks down everyday somatic hygiene, simple, everyday practices to weave nervous system care into your day. This is the foundation of Stephanie’s program, RESOURCED. And of course we get caught up in beautiful conversation around all these topics and have a blast exploring how Women and humans as a whole can come to have such greater quality and joy in life.
Bio:
Stephanie Nelson is a trauma-informed somatic coach, nervous system practitioner, and founder of The Stress Healers. Once a workaholic who couldn’t rest without guilt (or without another glass of wine) she knows what it’s like to feel anxious, scattered, and overwhelmed no matter how hard you try. Somatics revealed a different path... one where the body, not the mind or another to-do list, holds the key to the healing and freedom you deserve. Now she helps high-achieving women stop bracing for life and start living it, guiding them into confidence, clarity, and the fulfillment they’ve been missing.

“You've always had the power my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself.”
― The Wizard of Oz
I hate that to admit that it's true, yet I have spent most of my life thinking there was something very wrong with me. Defective. Disfigured. Doomed. This state of mind has improved and healed greatly over the years yet at times it still rears it's gnarly head and haunts me. The idea that NOTHING is WRONG with me (or you!)has been a theme/ message that kept popping up this year so I decided it was time to sit down and record about it.
On this solo episode I discuss the detriment to the human Soul that is wondering; what is wrong with me? To question your value, worth, abilities, intelligence, lovability, and if you even matter. Terrible feeling. When did this develop, why has it inflicted Humans for so long, and what can we do about it? I explore these and other questions as well as share my own experience and recent revelations around keeping my spirits and standards high and not keeping anything around in my life that is Not For Me in an attempt to prove that there is nothing wrong with me.

With life often feeling so overly structured and focused on conforming, it's understandable that you could use a guide to help you reach your naturally wild, authentic self. Women are so fantastically, remarkably luscious and rich. Exuberent! Yet for so long we've been told our role is to hold that in and be a good girl, not seen or heard. Well my guest this week has made it her life's work to say, forget that!

On this guest episode, Holly shares her fascinating story of having an ecologist’s perspective on how the inner path is critical to solving the global conservation and humanitarian crisis, finding our inner rewilding, and provides her modern mystical approach to awakening the self, and discovering frequency, The Ultimate Healer - Harnessing the power of light and sound to heal

The question of what happens after we die is one as old as time itself. We all wonder about it & are devastated by it at some point. Many fear it. And others feel that they already know or have even experienced it themselves. My guest this week, Ryan McCormick, produced an entire series of interviews based on the topic of the death and the afterlife. And all this within his pioneering podcast, "Outer Limits of Inner Truth," that delves into the profound mysteries of life, liberty, health, and the human spirit. Clearly I had a lot of questions, and accolades, for Ryan. We had a fantastic time chatting about all things other worldly.
On this week's guest episode, Ryan shares how he came to embark on this journey of sharing stories of the Outer Limits of Inner Truth with the World. He shares about his early days of working with several mentors including metaphysical visionary Stuart Wilde to creating the "world's only show about Forensic Soul Analysis." Ryan tells us what made him decide to tackle death and the afterlife in such a comprehensive way, how he balances being respectful of different beliefs while exploring such spiritual territory, and what he hopes someone who's never thought about these topics gets from listening.
Ryan's remarkable series, Journey Beyond Death, spanning 65 original interviews, including 28 with individuals who have had near-death experiences (NDEs), this series weaves together stories of survival, grief, revelation, and spiritual awakening. It brings together voices rarely heard in one place: grief counselors, psychologists, metaphysical teachers, mediums, and survivors of clinical death—all sharing their deeply human experiences and insights.
The series begins by meeting listeners where they are: in the raw immediacy of grief. The opening episodes feature deeply personal accounts from people who have lost children, spouses, siblings, and close friends. These early stories are not sensational—they're sacred. They’re grounded in real-world heartbreak, but also resilience, offering comfort to anyone navigating the silent terrain of mourning.

* Hello Beautiful Listeners. I could use a little refresher right now on this topic from 2023, I thought maybe some of you might as well. As I move into yet another time of limbo and change, I'm unsure what's ahead and doing my best to keep the faith. I know it will all work out for all of us! Have a fabulous weekend, sending all the love. *
It's amazing how we can feel like we've reached a place of peace, confidence, and acceptance of ourselves until we step into the outside World. Entering into situations where we feel overlooked, unnoticed, called out, or that we don't fit in can disturb the stability we create within ourselves through healing and spiritual work. So when we get knocked off our path of self assurance and love, how do we get ourselves back on track?
On this episode I give examples of situations that can cause us to feel like we've lost touch with and begin to question ourselves. I share my thoughts on how and why this happens, why it's a common experience, and how we can begin to strengthen our relationship with ourselves to avoid such disturbances in self confidence in the future.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in perfectionism, trapped in old patterns, or cut off from your creative spark, Kayla MacDonald will hand you the pen to rewrite your story. Kayla has revamped her business & now she is helping Women reclaim their voice, rewire patterns through imagination, and transform their relationships with food, emotions, and desire into portals for radical self-expression.
On this week's guest episode my dear friend Kayla joins me once again on the show, her 5th time! We always love catching up on what we're up to and our latest focus/offerings. Kayla is doing some fabulous new stuff which she tells us all about and we share powerful conversation around the brutal struggle of eating disorders, reclaiming our magic & power, and getting to the root of our fears and blocks.
Bio:
Kayla is a writer, Dance Alchemist, and creator of the ReWrite Me method - where fan fiction meets feminine healing. After 7+ years in the health coaching world left her burnt out, bingeing, and creatively numb, she discovered that writing stories - especially spicy, fantastical ones - was the missing piece in her healing journey.
Her work is weight-neutral, trauma-informed, pleasure-led, and deeply rooted in body trust, nervous system healing, and narrative alchemy.

Hello from the state of Arizona! My national nomading days have been whittled down to one state where I will hopefully find my new home! In the meantime...I turned 40, survived the Eclipse portal, we moved into Libra season, and are ALMOST in the final quarter of 2025! Whew....so how's everyone doing??
On this solo episode I share some life updates and thoughts on the effects of the eclipses and approaching the last lap of this tumultuous year. All in an effort to hopefully offer that good 'ol Divine Feminine love and support to help you all to a nice, peaceful Fall season.
