DAY 3: We Are All So Lovable and Also? We’re Not.
Just What You Needed
We’ve made it! The final episode of this podclass series, where we need to dive into a very adult-y, uncomfortable truth in terms of our innate lovability. Because YES, we’re all so super cute and special and wonderful and lovable…and YES, we are also totally wounded, pain-in-the-ass humans who sometimes show up in ways that make us hard to choose, or hard to be around. Accepting this paradox, admitting our own imperfection, while also investing and embodying our innate lovability? That is the sweet spot, my lovelies! Thank you for joining me on this delicious podclass ride, and if you...

DAY 2: You Can’t Just Keep Saying “No” Forever
Just What You Needed
And we’re off to the races! Unpacking and fleshing out another questionable piece of common dating advice. Way back in Season 1 of the pod I recorded an episode about “The Possibility and Power in Saying NO”, where I discussed the importance of knowing what you want, and being a clear “no” to anything that is not that. Yes! Important! Very true! And…here we are now, five years later, five years wiser, and I need to adjust some of that advice. Because where Great Love is concerned, sometimes we will be asked to assess, question, and evaluate where a “no” is coming from, and what...

DAY 1: Entitlement, Superiority, and Egoic Standards (EEK!)
Just What You Needed
Episode one of this series is all about deepening into what’s driving our standards in the quest for Great Love. A fire was lit under my booty on this topic when I bumped into a little post on Instagram reinforcing the popular idea that if you are a conscious, growth-focused person, then you should clearly be with a conscious, growth-focused person. And on the one hand, yeah! Totally! Why not? And on the other hand…welp – we gotta unpack this one and get into the deeper layers of what’s at play here. Because depending on the energy that your standards are rooted in…you could be in...

#76 – Slow-Burn Attraction & Detoxifying Your Dating Life
Just What You Needed
CLAIMED is coming up this Saturday, so let’s talk about getting ourselves outta the way of deep, lasting, love and partnership! I want to share my journey of shifting away from high intensity, toxic, trauma-bonded connections…and learning how to be attracted to healthy, sustainable, compatible partnerships. It’s been a whooole thing, and I know so many women feel very frustrated with continuously attracting more of what they don’t want. So how can we start opening ourselves up to better connections and more fulfilling relationships? How do we rewire ourselves for healthy (but also hot)...

#75 – On Being Love’s Little B*tch (and Humble Student)
Just What You Needed
Registration for CLAIMED is wide open, so we’re gonna talk about it! To start, here’s a powerful question for you: What is your relationship like to LOVE itself? Do you know how to listen to Love? Respond from (and as) Love? Can you feel and sense how Love is guiding you, in your life, in your relationships, day-to-day? In today’s episode, I’m talking about becoming a student of Love, surrendering to Love, and what that has looked like for me over the years. I wanted to tell some spicy stories of times when Love has swooped in and saved my butt (and made me here lil b*tch),...

Just What You Needed
First off: I have an exciting announcement of something NEW coming in March. And secondly…let’s get into a deep unpacking of the many ways we sweet, tender humans try to turn off our longing for love. Which, if I can be completely honest, is so futile and frustrating.

#72 – Are You Stuck in the Feminine Swamp?
Just What You Needed
Ladies, we’re leaving the swamp! The swamp of dilapidated Feminine flow and resistance to healthy Masculine support! The swamp of staying trapped under a gravity blanket of heavy, dense, energetic depression that prevents you from following your dreams and desires! The swamp of staring at your phone for hours on end when really, your energy wants to be directed towards literally anything else! Today I’m talking about creating supportive Masculine structure that exists in service to your Feminine creational flow. Because the Feminine Swamp gets the better of so many of us…so let’s get...

#71 – Dealing With Unsupportive People & Self-Love Practices
Just What You Needed
Another listener-requested episode! I received two awesome inquiries and got to go deep on the following topics: How do you detach from unsupportive people? And what are some specific tips for loving yourself very well? Ohmigahhh – these questions have me practically drooling with enthusiasm to dive in and share some personal stories unpacking my experiences with lack of support, and practicing self-love. Listen up and learn how to stop worrying about the people in your life who just don’t “get it”, and how to care for yourself (and live your best, Soul-aligned life!) in the process....
info_outlineToday is a LISTENER REQUESTED EPISODE! Two lovely listeners wrote in with brilliant questions so I got to go deep, riff, and rant on the art of clean boundary-setting in relationships (and what tends gets in the way), and then share about my experience of working with my body and energetic system after years of exclusively talk-focused therapy and coaching. Enjoy!
