The Awakening Her Podcast

Welcome back! This episode is a heartfelt reflection on this past year and what it really means to lighten up — not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

I’m sharing very personal stories from this past year: the burnout, the breaking point, the numbness, and the moment everything began to shift. How choosing compassion over self-abandonment changed my nervous system, my body, my relationships, my work… and ultimately my life. 

This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about choosing light when you’re tired of carrying heaviness.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, worn down, or like life has been asking too much of you — this episode is for you. This is also for you if you're feeling good and powerful because it will remind you of what causes true momentum!

2026: A Fresh Start Year That Is About Who You’re Becoming 💜

You’re going to love today’s episode!!

I’m taking you into the energetic landscape of 2026 — why it’s such a powerful turning point, what the numerology and Chinese zodiac reveal, and how to consciously work with this momentum instead of resisting it.

 

We talk about:

• Why 2026 marks the beginning of a brand-new cycle
• The balance between flow and action, intuition and leadership
• Moving beyond surface-level spirituality into real embodiment
• Why this is a year that rewards clarity, integrity, and self-trust
• How to step into this next chapter without forcing or fixing yourself

This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about leading from who you already are.

Take a breath. This year is asking something big and meaningful of you.

In this episode, I dive into why it can feel so hard to show up as your authentic self — and what’s really going on under the surface.

We’ll talk about the shadow, childhood conditioning, tribe mentality, the spotlight effect, and how all of this connects to your spiritual evolution and the person you’re meant to be.

I also share grounded tools and strategies to help you express yourself with more confidence, ease, and freedom.

*This episode recording was live streamed on Instagram!

 

In this episode, I cover:
• Why being authentic can feel scary
• The shadow and the parts of ourselves we learned to hide
• Childhood programming that told us to “be small”
• How our brain is wired for tribe and fears rejection
• The spotlight effect — why we think everyone notices our “flaws”
• Why showing up as your true self is part of your spiritual evolution
• Practical steps to move through fear and express yourself fully

 

Enjoy!

Alright my love, let’s talk about something we hear everywhere: “Embody your highest self.” And listen… I know you’ve heard that phrase a thousand times. And maybe part of you is like:

• “Okay but… what does that actually mean?”

• “Is she the version of me who journals for an hour every morning?”

• “Is she the one who magically loves green juice?”

• “Is she the girl who never snaps, never spirals, never accidentally eats chips for breakfast—hypothetically?”

We get sold this Pinterest version of the highest self. The perfectly-lit, floaty robe, sage-burning goddess. And here’s the truth: Your highest self is not an aesthetic. It’s an identity shift. A psychological shift. A spiritual shift. A nervous-system shift. A future-self shift.

That’s what we’re diving into today. Not aesthetic spirituality. Actual transformation.

HELLO! 👋  Welcome back! You are going to love today’s episode — especially if you’ve ever felt like you “should be more disciplined,” or if you’ve tried to force yourself into motivation and wondered why it never lasts.

This is your reminder that you’re not broken… you’re evolving.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why motivation comes and goes, why willpower burns out quickly, and why the old paradigm of “just be more disciplined” actually keeps you stuck in shame, pressure, and perfectionism.

You’ll learn:

• Why discipline is only a short-term tool — not a lifestyle
• How alignment and identity shifts replace the need for constant motivation
• The dark side of discipline and how it can quietly sabotage your growth
• The spiritual power of resilience and why it’s more transformative than willpower
• How devotion (not discipline) becomes the energy that carries you long-term
• What to do when you feel stuck, uninspired, or disconnected from your big vision

If you’ve been chasing motivation… or feeling guilty for not having enough of it… this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Like coming home to the truth that you don’t need to force yourself to evolve — you just need to shift the energy you’re operating from.

This one is for the seeker who is ready to move forward with more grace, more groundedness, and more truth… not more pressure.

Let’s get into it. ✨

You’re going to love today’s episode — especially if you’ve been feeling that inner shift… the sense that you’re not here to fix yourself anymore, you’re here to live, to expand, to deepen, and to grow into who you already are.

This conversation is for the seeker who’s done the work. Who’s healed, learned, stretched, rewritten chapters, faced shadows, and built a level of emotional strength most people never reach. And now… you're ready for something different.

In today’s episode we dive into:

✨ Why you’re naturally outgrowing the constant hustle of self-improvement
✨ What it really means to evolve rather than “fix”
✨ How to start making decisions from your highest good (not fear, not old patterns)
✨ The signs your intuition is trying to graduate you
✨ What loving yourself looks like in this stage of your life
✨ Why aligned action matters more than overthinking, forcing, or grinding
✨ How to weave your light into your everyday life and let it guide your next chapter

This episode will help you exhale. It will remind you that you’re not behind — you’re evolving. And the next phase of your life isn’t about striving or pushing… it’s about living your truth, trusting your inner guidance, and moving forward with everything you’ve learned, everything you’ve healed, and everything you are becoming.

If you’re feeling called into more ease, purpose, intuition, more purpose, and more alignment… this one is for you!

In Part Two of our two-part series on The Light Chasers, I’m diving deep into the light side of seeking growth, healing, and transformation. While Part One explored the shadow — the hustle, the fixing, the endless pressure to “get it right” — today we flip the script.

This episode is all about your gifts, your depth, and your unique brilliance as someone who is hungry for more in life. I talk about the resilience, empathy, wisdom, and intuition that come naturally to light chasers — and how these traits are your superpowers, not burdens. We explore what it means to step fully into your light, without chasing, hustling, or feeling like you’re not enough.

 

You’ll hear reflections on:

• Why your depth, empathy, and intuition are powerful tools for transformation.

• How your humour, insight, and natural leadership are part of your light.

• The difference between chasing the light and being the light.

• Practical steps for staying grounded, present, and anchored in your light even when you feel pressure, doubt, or comparison.

• How to remember that the lighthouse doesn’t run around looking for boats to save — it simply shines.

This episode is for the seekers, the old souls, the mentors, the leaders, the dreamers, and anyone who knows they’re here to make a bigger impact, and is ready to embody their light fully.

 

Remember, your light is already within you. This episode is here to remind you of that, and to help you step fully into your brilliance — without force, without shame, just presence and alignment.

In today’s episode, I’m opening up a two-part series that has been living inside me for a long time: The Dark Side of the Light Chasers.

This is for those of us who are meant for big things — the seekers, the healers, the visionaries, the ones who genuinely care about being the best version of themselves. And because of that… we can easily fall into a sneaky patterns that no one really talks about.

The endless healing loop. The pressure to be spiritually perfect. The belief that there’s always something to fix. The feeling of being “almost ready” but never quite enough.

In this episode, I’m talking about how the ego can dress up in spiritual language, how our self-growth becomes another form of self-judgment, and how easy it is to confuse “working on ourselves” with reinforcing the idea that something is wrong with us.

This is an honest, grounded conversation about what happens when the path of healing becomes heavier than it needs to be — and how to recognize that moment where we stop chasing the light and start remembering: we already are the light.

I can't wait to dive in!

2025 is winding down!! Let's make the most of it.

In this episode, I’m diving into the energy of this moment in the year — that space where the seasons shift, the calendar turns, and something inside of us wakes up. Whether you’re the kind of person who creates a whole fresh-start list every January, or someone who simply feels the natural closing of a chapter and the opening of a new one… this episode is your activation.

I’m talking about what it really means to step into your next level with intention, alignment, and actual forward motion. Because this time of year holds a unique momentum — and when we consciously tap into it, it can pull us deeper into the things we know we’re here to do, and the person we know we’re here to become.

In this personal and reflective birthday episode, I’m sharing what this past year has truly been for me — the hard, the awesome, and everything in between.

This year stretched me to my edges. I found myself in deep suffering, overwhelmed, overstimulated, and at times disconnected from my joy. It was a season of endings, uncertainty, and profound inner change — what I now recognize as a dark night of the soul. And yet, within all of that, something beautiful happened.

I realized that if I’m going to choose to be here anyway — I have to live while I’m alive. I have to lighten up, focus on the light, and allow joy to return to the center. This episode is about that awakening. About remembering that the point isn’t to fix or perfect ourselves — it’s to live. To love ourselves through the growth. To see how far we’ve actually come.

You’ll hear about how this past year has been a full death-and-rebirth cycle for me — closing On The Path, preparing for my book, hosting retreats, taking on more one-on-one clients, and stepping even more deeply into my calling. It’s the end of one chapter and the beginning of something new — a reminder that every ending holds the seed of what’s next.

✨ Reflection Questions:

1. What have I walked through this past year that has made me stronger, softer, or wiser?
2. What am I ready to release, forgive, or finally put down as I move into this next chapter?
3. What do I want to turn up in my life — joy, creativity, confidence, self-trust, presence?
4. How can I live while I’m alive, right here, right now — not waiting for the next milestone?
5. What light am I ready to share more boldly with the world?
