I cannot believe this is my first full episode about breathwork! This practice has completely changed my life, and has healed things that years of therapy were not able to fully heal. Seven years in, I'm still going strong. I have seen this CUT THE WORK IN HALF (if not much faster) with the individuals and groups that I work with. I am so grateful to my teacher David Elliott. We are living in urgent times, and don't have years to waste anymore. I believe that breathwork is a vital practice - it ...

This episode includes teachings that I shared over six days, reflecting upon each of the six co-commitments written about in the book Conscious Loving by Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks. This book came into my field in 2019, and I have since recommended it to 1000+ people - it's one of my favorite relationship books! Six years later, as I'm reading it again cover to cover, I was inspired to share my thoughts and personal experiences practicing these principles in my own life, as well as helping client...

Grab your notebook and pen! In this episode, I'm sharing a full class with you on the differences between matrix-style relationships and higher love. Essentially, I'm describing how most people are doing relationships vs where we're headed - from the dark ages to the light. Consensus reality relationships vs the new paradigm of highly conscious relationships and spiritual partnership. Here are the seven key differences I describe: - The Basis of Attraction (trauma bonds vs clean attraction) - Fi...

I loved this conversation with Sophie + Yerasimos about their relationship of almost 10 years. They are both deeply dedicated to inner work and growth, which really shows in the marriage they've created. We speak about how important it was for them to build a strong foundation of friendship first, which allowed them to get to know each other in a way that looks very different from the typical process of dating. We also discussed how they get through conflict in a healthy way, the importance of n...

In this episode, I'm so happy to speak with Joel Schafer, a shamanic dreaming arts teacher, about sexuality and relationships from a shamanic perspective. We get into so much together - the predator energy at the heart of sexual trauma and abuse energy, working consciously with our sexuality, collective patterns of open relationships, how monogamy is a path of honor, and gender confusion. We also speak about the dynamics between men + women, working together in a complementary way, evolutionary ...

This week, I share the story of my almost 20 year relationship with my ex-husband and father of my child, the man I truly believed was my soulmate, and how I moved through total rock bottom when our marriage collapsed. I share the hard lessons I had to learn about what I was bringing into the relationship that was not working (things like insecure attachment, low self worth, codependency, and victim mentality) and how I healed. I also share how I learned to love and value myself, moved into secu...

This is the most public I have ever been about my story. [Note: I don't get into details of the abuse, but rather focus on the negative affects I faced as a result, and the approach I took to heal. This is a fairly easy listen, so please dive in.] I have learned that a dual approach to healing is required - working both psychologically and energetically - and share why. Sexual abuse is a major challenge we are facing collectively, and in order to heal, we need to speak openly and honestly, remov...

In this episode, I go deeper on the topic of codependency in parenting. I talk about what codependency is and how it shows up in the parent/child relationship - through a lack of healthy boundaries, enmeshment, over-involvement, and more. Codependency in parenting also correlates to permissive parenting. Single parents need to be especially vigilant, as codependency can unconsciously cause them to treat the child as their spouse. They may fill an internal void with the child's life and not give ...

This is a very special episode where I asked my client Alysondra Duke to share her story of building an incredible life of empowerment, self-love, expansion, and conscious relating. Alysondra has come from a life that has not been easy - a tough childhood with less than ideal caregiving that led to relational wounding that impacted her adult relationships. When we met, she was settling for way less than she deserved in relationships. Now, with committed work and dedication to building a life tha...

We speak about the importance of discernment, boundaries, logic, courageousness and overall...

In this episode, I speak about this huge problem that I see with the women who come to me for support - they continually get themselves involved with men who do not treat them very well. The sexual attraction to these "bad boys" is so strong that despite their best intentions, they get pulled in and mixed up in very unhealthy relationships. I talk about why this problem is so widespread, what we can do to rewire our sexual attraction so that we desire healthy, stable partners, and how to begin d...

This episode is short and sweet, and is for you if you've ever shape shifted or molded yourself into someone you're not in order to get love (whether consciously or unconsciously, and especially during dating or the beginning stages of a relationship.) We've all done this, so there's no shame. But there is a way out, especially because this usually comes back to bite us in the end. In this episode, I speak all about the importance of authenticity and how to create relationships from the true sel...

On this episode, Roy Wang and I speak about the theme of men, women, and power. What is true power vs. false power, and how can the journey towards empowerment sometimes look different for men and women? How can power be a healthy goal for all of us, a spiritual journey, and an essential part of becoming integrated men and women? We speak about so many different expressions of power: physical strength, beauty, authenticity, knowing your true self, and women as oracles. Ultimately, we believe tha...

We are at the crossroads right now in love, sex, and relationships. The higher path that is wide open and available for us to step into involves highly conscious relationships and the spiritual path of divine union. The lower path is everything in our culture that is preventing us from stepping in to this higher road - the division between men + women, depolariza...
