014. Is Love or Fear Leading - Identifying what is Leading & Stepping into New Cycles
CHAOS & NOISE. It is all around us in this world, but LOVE is intrinsic. Today, we discuss the looping patterns of fear - why we are addicted to chaos and how to step out of those chaotic cycles. I found myself abiding by FEAR for so long by trying to just get AROUND it, instead of identifying it and in this episode I discuss what that MAY look like and the WHY behind our looping chaos. With so much going on, it is so easy to stay in this addictive pattern of fear, but it is your eternal destiny to exist in full love and we get to rest in THAT truth, today. Happy Listening!

012. SACRED Self-Love & our Ever Evolving Journey Home with Devin Jones
This episode had me in tears while recording and once again while editing. Devin Jones is an International Women's Self Love Coach and Creator of the SACRED program where she leads women to dive into self-love. She has many qualifications and endorsements, but nothing parallels Devins sovereign wisdom that she allows herself to lead from. The integrity of her work is displayed through her full embodiment of self-love and the service she shows up in. As we dive into her transition from evangelical Christianity to spiritual mysticism, you will be invited into a very vulnerable and encouraging story that leads us home to the powerful force of love that is woven throughout life. I can't wait for you to listen!

011. PLAY - How we lost it but WHY it is more important than ever
PLAY - a topic I have been very focused on as of late. I am so excited to dive into why we lost the art of play but why it is more important than ever to bring it back. The duality of life is being seen in a greater way and having a full awareness of it, allows our deepest connection, service and living out our souls abundance. Play is an integral part. Tune in to hear why!

010. Duality, Intrinsic Love & Higher Perspective during Social Media Wars
A SOLO episode is here today! I did not realize I had a lot to say but I did. In this episode I dive into the duality of life, how our SACRED anger is so necessary and the beauty is that we get to allow our intrinsic love to lead it. There is more and more divisiveness, but what if we all tapped into our true Sacred anger and found unity in tapping into the activation our souls are asking for? Not requiring ourselves to dive into EVERY important and necessary issue coming to life but asking our soul WHERE and HOW to activate? Duality lies there and our beautiful sacred anger gets to partner with love. Plus a little unexpected tear filled encouragement for us at the end. Light a candle, take a deep breath and let's hang out.

008. But Where are THE Answers? How do I Move Forward & Create Change?
2020 is not for the faint of heart and that is why NONE OF US HAVE A FAINT HEART. We are here NOW and our souls exist for GOOD reason. The thing is, we want answers, right? WHY am I here now? Queue the checklists and rules... but why does that feel so exhaustive and feel like it changes so little? Why is it so overwhelming I can't keep up and don't want to? Our egos love rules to say "well I tried, but it wasn't enough." Whereas our heart says something different and this is what we get down to in this episode. Enjoy!

007. How Massive Change Starts on a Microscopic Level with Kimberly Rose McConnell
How do I make change when I am "just one person?" How do I continue to show up and do the hard things when there is SO MUCH going on? What does lasting change look like and where do I start? Maybe you have had these questions just like I have. Well, today we are discussing them and Kimberly McConnell is showing UP to give encouraging and actionable, heart centric resolutions for us. I was so encouraged recording this episode and even more encouraged every time I listen. I cannot wait for you to be encouraged by it just as I have been.

005. RADICAL SELF LOVE:: The Way to Guide Ourselves & Others Back to Love
This episode goes into parts of my journey of coming home to myself (aka radical self love) and I talk about how this is the least selfish thing I have EVER done and HOW it has allowed me to show up in my power and can do the same for you. It's also maybe one of the more interesting shows because I may or may not also incorporate an "analogy" about cheese that likely was not an analogy at all... If you have been hesitant regarding self love or really just over how it is portrayed in the majority of the media. This is for YOU! It is not action friends, it is heart. And. we. are. here. for. it. Rooting for you!
