#90 I Went Corporate Cosplaying. Here's What Broke Me Open.

Corporate cosplaying and witnessing women severed from their hearts in big tech

#89 Why I’m Back on the Mic (and Off Instagram)
In this return episode of the Sacred Femme Alchemy Podcast, I open up about my hiatus, what pulled me away, and why I’m choosing to come back now with a new direction for this space.
I share candid reflections on:
Why I stepped back from Instagram and content creation and why podcasting feels like home again
The fear of being forgotten when we pause, and the rebirth that happens when we return
My journey of moving through different coaching identities and coming back to what feels most authentic
How my Taoist Feminine Arts training, Kundalini practices, and return to corporate life have reshaped my understanding of the masculine and feminine
Meeting my inner masculine filled with discipline, grit, leadership and the burnout that can follow when it’s out of balance
How my cycle and body called me back into yin, rest, and pleasure as sacred practice
The messy, nonlinear path of integration, and why leadership (for women especially) needs new models rooted in both power and heart
This episode is less about polished teaching and more about pulling back the curtain, where I am, what I’m learning, and how Sacred Femme Alchemy is evolving.
If you’ve ever felt the fear of pausing, struggled with integrating your spiritual practices into everyday life, or wrestled with finding balance between the masculine and feminine within you, this conversation will resonate.

#88 ✨ How I Stay Youthful AF at 39: Sobriety, Sacred Rituals & Kundalini Energy
In this raw, soul-led solo episode of the Sacred Femme Alchemy podcast, I’m back after a little pause—sharing exactly what’s been keeping me grounded, radiant, and turned the f*ck on about life as I head into the final year of my 30s.
I get real about:
The unexpected gifts of sobriety (14+ years and counting)
How ecstatic movement and feminine embodiment woke me up
My journey with Kundalini energy and Tao Tantric Arts
Why healing your relationship with your parents is a spiritual practice
And the real reason I look younger than my age (spoiler: it’s not just collagen 👀)
Plus, I dive into how these sacred practices have helped me show up more fully—not just as a coach or spiritual teacher, but in my corporate work, my relationships, and my everyday joy.
This one’s for the modern mystics, sober curious babes, sacred rebels, and anyone navigating the messy, beautiful evolution from maiden to mother energy.
MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
Root & Bones Collagen (not sponsored—yet!)
Taoist Feminine Arts Practices
Kundalini Yoga Kriyas
