Aligned & Turned On with Nedjma

About Aligned & Turned On with Nedjma

You can know yourself deeply and still find yourself repeating the same patterns. The reaction you didn't mean to have. The relationship dynamic you thought you'd moved beyond. The part of yourself you understand intellectually, but still haven't quite been able to shift. **Aligned & Turned On with Nedjma** explores what it actually takes to become more fully yourself and more fully alive. Hosted by Liberation Teacher, Writer, and Speaker Nedjma Sitadevi Belaid, the podcast explores relationships, emotional mastery, self-awareness, consciousness, and the many paths through which we transform. Through solo teachings and honest conversations with people who have walked their own journeys, we go beyond knowing the work and into what it means to actually live it. Because there isn't just one path to becoming who you're here to be. This is about discovering what's possible when we do the work, walk the path, and create a life that feels more Aligned & Turned On from the inside out.

   What If Your Greatest Gift Doesn't Fit in a Box? (with Sunita Kumar)

   What if your greatest gift is something the world doesn't even have a category for yet? And what happens when you stop trying to fit who you are and what you do into what people already understand? In this episode of Aligned & Turned On with Nedjma, I'm joined by Sunita Kumar, an alchemical business consultant and positioning strategist who brings together engineering, business strategy, intuition, astrology, Human Design, and what she calls the 5D. We explore Sunita's unconventional journey, how she discovered gifts she didn't even know she had, and what it takes to recognize and own something that doesn't fit the usual mold. We get into: Discovering your unique gifts and learning to trust them The intersection of intuition, science, and business strategy How old identities can shape the choices we make about our future The difference between conventional success and creating something that genuinely fulfills you What becomes possible when you build your work around who you actually are Whether you're an entrepreneur or simply someone who feels there's more of yourself waiting to be expressed, this conversation invites you to reconsider what makes you uniquely valuable and what it might mean to bring more of that into the world.

   Are You Trying So Hard to Do It Right That You’re Losing Yourself?

   Are you trying so hard to be a good parent, partner, professional, helper, or human that somewhere along the way, you’ve lost yourself inside the role? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Franzen, counselor, educator, international speaker, and creator of the Abound Framework, to explore what she calls durable presence: the capacity to show up regulated, connected, intentional, and still authentically yourself. Melissa shares the personal journey behind her work, from pursuing a dream she had carried since seventh grade, through marriage, divorce, single parenting a child with complex needs, earning her PhD, and eventually realizing that constantly fighting to meet every expectation was leaving her exhausted. Our conversation moves into something I see all the time in my own work: how easily we can become the “good one,” trying to check every box and live up to what we believe a parent, professional, partner, or person is supposed to be. And what happens when we turn the lens back toward ourselves? We explore: Why trying to meet everyone else’s expectations can disconnect you from yourself The relationship between nervous system regulation and how you show up with other people Why your own state can change the dynamic of an interaction The difference between being regulated and performing regulation What it means to know yourself before trying to find the “right” answer How awareness can become another weapon against yourself if it isn’t held with kindness Why curiosity may be one of the most powerful places to begin This is a conversation about regulation, relationships, faith, self-awareness, and learning to show up for the roles that matter without disappearing inside them.

   Why Can’t I Switch Off? When Being the Good Girl Keeps You on Duty (with Samantha Grider)

   Why is it so hard to switch off when nobody is actually asking anything of you? For Samantha Grider, being “the good girl” started as a way of navigating childhood. Take up less space. Be easy. Be mature for your age. Pay attention to what everyone else needs. Eventually, that way of moving through the world became automatic. In this conversation, Samantha and I explore what happened when she began questioning the life she thought she was supposed to live and learning to listen to herself again. We talk about the difference between being alone and actually knowing yourself, why rest can feel like something that needs to be earned, and what Samantha calls inner mothering: creating enough safety within yourself to experiment, notice what you actually like and want, and try again. We also explore: How childhood interpretations can quietly become adult patterns Constantly scanning other people instead of noticing yourself The “mature for your age” identity and what can sit underneath it What happens when you stop trusting your own signals Inner mothering as a practice of self-relationship Creating a gap between reaction and response Using somatics, hypnosis, and NLP in real life, not just during dedicated practices Noticing what is happening in your body as data rather than immediately turning it into a story Moving from “I need to” toward greater choice Why simple practices are not necessarily easy practices This is a conversation about learning to come off duty, turn some of that attention back toward yourself, and create a life you are actually choosing while you are living it.
