this week, we’re getting into the part of manifestation that actually creates transformation: uncovering and healing the limiting beliefs that block your desires, your confidence, and your ability to manifest the life you want. in part two of the how to manifest series, we’re breaking down the subconscious stories that shape your reality. these beliefs are familiar, protective, and often inherited which is why you can work hard, stay grateful, repeat affirmations… and still feel stuck. inside this episode, we explore: • what limiting beliefs are and how they influence your mindset and...

welcome to the How to Manifest 4-part series: a grounded, soul-centered approach to manifestation created especially for anyone who’s ever felt left out of the mainstream “just think positive and anything is possible" ways of manifestation. this week we’re starting where all manifestation begins: with the dream. before you can call anything in (the love, the freedom, the peace, the abundance) you have to feel safe enough to imagine it. but for so many of us, especially those who’ve had to survive systems not built for us, dreaming can feel unsafe, unrealistic, or wasteful. this...

why is it so hard to trust ourselves? in this episode, I explore the fear of intuition: why we’ve been taught to doubt our gut feelings, how logic and conditioning silence our inner knowing, and what shifts when we start trusting it again. this is more than a mindset shift, it’s a reclamation. because when you reconnect with your intuition, you stop needing permission. you stop outsourcing your power. you start living from your truth.

you don’t need perfection to show up. you don't need the perfect words, the priciest equipment, all the know-how in the world. showing up messy, tired, scared, or imperfect is still valuable and often the exact step you need to take.

let's talk about what it’s like to be in the messy middle of life. not the before, not the after, but the in-between. the space we rarely talk about. right now for me, that looks like being sick (again), grieving the two-year anniversary of my brother’s passing, and sitting with everything that comes along with it. the middle is where we live, where we learn, suffer, grow, and sometimes just try to make it through the day.

info_outlinehow do you move forward when motherhood begins with loss?
(quick note: this episode includes honest conversation around miscarriage and recurrent pregnancy loss. if that feels too heavy today, honor what you need. the episode will be here when you're ready)
this week’s conversation on motherhood, differently is with Brittany Jones—registered dietitian, business owner, and mother of one child on eart and four in heaven—to talk about what motherhood looks like when it's shaped by grief, loss, and ultimately, the choice to live fully in the now.
Brittany shares her experience with recurrent pregnancy loss, including the physical toll, the emotional isolation, and the deep healing work that followed. she opens up about how grief reshaped her relationship with control, why she and her husband made the decision to stop trying to conceive, and how she’s embracing life as a mother of one here on earth and four in spirit.
we also explore:
- shame around your postpartum body after pregnancy loss
- how Brittany learned to accept a body that’s been through so much
- why genetic testing helped release her self-blame
- how she’s finding peace, presence, and joy as a family of three (plus their gorgeous cat, Callie)
whether you've experienced miscarriage yourself, love someone who has, or simply want to understand the deeper realities of motherhood after loss, this episode offers compassion, clarity, and community.
