"You're Going to Die An Artist" - How One Reading Helped Me Remember My Gifts & Pursue Music with Nikki Novo
What's The Juice
Ep 139. Three years ago, I felt completely lost. I was paralyzed by this feeling that my life no longer matched my purpose — like I needed to step back, stop the ship, and change course, even though nothing was “wrong.” During my yearly birthday reading with master intuitive Nikki Novo, she told me that my soul was renegotiating its contract and was ready to bring some deeper medicine to the world. “For some reason I’m seeing you at the end of your life… and you’re going to die being known as an artist.” As an herbalist, I was confused. I thought the holistic health world and...

How to Build Your Self Worth By Meeting Your “Inner Mother”: Reparenting & Parts Work 101
What's The Juice
Ep. 135 Do you feel like there’s often a rebellious, childlike part of you calling the shots despite your best efforts to take action aligned with your goals? Does she procrastinate to the point of self-sabotage, or go for the box of cookies when you know a solid meal is what you need? Does this rebellion come out when you’re working to an extreme, being especially hard on yourself or tying your worth solely to your productivity? This is where “reparenting” ourselves comes in: the part of adulthood where we realize it’s our job to be our own parent, but we have no idea where to start...

How to Have a Conversation with Your Higher Self (& The Unconventional Way I Use AI to Treat it Like a Therapy Session)
What's The Juice
Ep 134. I recently had a transformative experience where I felt called to lay down before bed and allow my “higher self” to thank me for all the work I’ve done up to this point. I had the thought to voice record the process, where I simply talked to myself and said all the things we never acknowledge or validate out loud but need to hear — not from the outside world, but from ourselves. Afterwards, I decided to plug the transcript of the voice recording into ChatGPT… and I was shocked at how valuable it was to not only have this healing moment and my own words recollected in such...
info_outlineEp 130. Welcome to Season 6, and the mark of a brand new chapter for What’s The Juice Podcast. Wellness is changing, humanity as a collective is changing… each and every one of us are going through huge internal shifts right now. When I sat with the question, ‘how can I be of maximum service to my community at this very moment?’ I realized that at least for right now, that doesn’t look like another episode about your circadian rhythm. It doesn’t look like another complicated protocol to add to your to do list. In the age of information overload, we now know what we “should” be doing to take care of ourselves – I’m more interested in unpacking the deeper, not-so-palatable reasons as to why we sometimes can’t or don’t. The things we think we’re alone in carrying, like shame or guilt, that prevent us from hearing our own inner wisdom and voices about what our bodies actually need separate from an IG perfect morning routine.
I’m ready to show up as a fuller, wiser version of myself and speak even my ugliest truths because telling our stories is what free us from that shame. This means I also get to speak to the fullness of YOU, and the big life you’re working so hard to create by facing your deepest layers. Let’s talk about all the things we struggle with behind closed doors: how to build a real relationship with yourself after a lifetime at odds, candid chats about vices, friendship breakups, and rediscovering your inner child so that she can get you through this often magical but sometimes extremely difficult life. Come along for solos, Q&As, conversations between everyone from thought leaders to my very best friends.
Starting off strong, today we’re chatting about periods of death and rebirth. Massive transitions are a part of life, but how do we best care for ourselves during a time when it feels like the world we once knew is ending? What do you do when you wake up one day and your life no longer fits – you know you need to say goodbye to the way things are, but you’re terrified of jumping when you don’t know what’s next? I'm breaking down my last couple of years and the terrifying experience of letting go, sitting in nothingness, and trusting that something new will be born. I’ll be sharing the very best wisdom I learned from the pain. Whether you're ready for a change in your career, relationships, or sense of identity, this episode is a comforting reminder that growth is necessary, nonlinear, and ultimately SO worth it.
