Ep 13 - Choosing Hope When Life Changes Overnight with Makayla and Jen Noble

<p>In this deeply moving episode of Embracing the Shift, Erin and Stacy sit down with Makayla Noble and her mother Jen to talk about what happens when life changes in an instant and nothing looks the way you thought it would. Makayla shares her story of becoming a quadriplegic at sixteen after a cheerleading accident and how her identity, faith, and sense of purpose were reshaped through loss, resilience, and radical self acceptance. Jen opens up about navigating motherhood through trauma, divorce, and caregiving while learning to release control and trust God one day at a time. Together they reflect on identity beyond achievement, the freedom found in imperfection, the power of community, and what it means to build a meaningful life even when the path is completely unexpected. This conversation is raw, hopeful, and a reminder that the hardest shifts often lead to the deepest growth.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Follow Makayla and Jen on Instagram:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/makaylamnoble/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/makaylamnoble/</a> </p><p></p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jennnoble13/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/jennnoble13/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow the show on Instagram:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Erin:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Stacy:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/</a> </p><p></p><p>Concept House Studios:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/</a></p>

Ep 12 - When Relationships Shift: Marriage, Family, and the Work of Healing

<p>  In this raw and deeply honest solo episode of Embracing the Shift, Erin and Stacy open up about relational shifts many women experience but rarely talk about including marriage, family forgiveness, and grief.</p><p></p><p>  Erin shares her journey through separation, forgiveness, surrender, and reconciliation. She also reflects on what it looks like to truly do the inner work rather than avoid numbness or rush into the next chapter. Stacy vulnerably shares her experience with family estrangement, unprocessed grief, and the realization that unresolved pain can surface years later especially through parenting and the holidays.</p><p></p><p>  Together they explore how unhealed wounds show up in our nervous systems, relationships and reactions, why forgiveness is not the same as approval, and how choosing healing today can help break generational cycles tomorrow. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, acknowledge the hard things, and remember that you are not alone while shifting.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Follow the show on Instagram:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Erin:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Stacy:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/</a> </p><p></p><p>Concept House Studios:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/</a></p><p></p><p></p>

Ep 11 - Saying Yes and Then Figuring It Out with Alli K

<p> In this episode of Embracing the Shift, Erin and Stacy sit down with Alli K, artist and founder of Alli K Design, for an honest conversation about creativity, identity, and what it really looks like to build a sustainable creative career over time. Alli shares her journey from calligraphy and wedding work to large-scale murals, published art books, international projects, and why so much of her growth came from saying yes before everything felt figured out. Together, they talk about imposter syndrome, evolving beyond a single label, and the tension between creativity and business, especially in a world that rewards speed and visibility. Alli opens up about building slowly, trusting your instincts, redefining success, and why stepping away from routine — through creative retreats, hands-on art, and intentional rest — has been essential to staying inspired. This episode is a reminder that growth doesn’t have to be loud or rushed, and that sometimes the biggest shifts happen when you allow yourself to expand without abandoning who you’ve always been.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Follow Alli K:</p><p></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/allikdesign/" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">https://www.instagram.com/allikdesign/</a> </p><p></p><p></p><p>Follow the show on Instagram:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/embracingtheshift.podcast/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Erin:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/erin.fineline.aesthetics/</a> </p><p></p><p>Follow Stacy:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/maxwellandgray/</a> </p><p></p><p>Concept House Studios:</p><p>- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;">https://www.instagram.com/concepthouse.studios/</a></p><p></p><p></p>
