S7E1 Embodying Confidence: Amber Lane's Guide to Self-Empowerment Unlocking Self-Worth and Embodiment: Amber on Taking Up Space, Self-Love, and Abundance Host Wes Coons welcomes Amber Lane to Enlightenment Unknown Life of a Spiritual Nomad. Amber, an identity and embodiment coach who primarily works with women, explains that many clients feel disconnected from themselves due to shame and limiting beliefs, and she helps them release these through tools like audios and journaling so they can stop playing small, take up space, and step into their power. Amber shares how earlier insecurity affected her relationships, and how building self-trust and self-worth changed how she shows up. The conversation covers starting with self-love, shifting self-talk, practicing self-care, and mirror work to replace self-judgment with compassion. They discuss abundance as energy, money as a relationship that responds to self-worth, and how wealth can give women the power to say no and avoid staying stuck in unhealthy jobs or relationships. Amber defines embodiment coaching as aligning identity with goals ("be, do, have"), avoiding self-sabotage, and recognizing distractions like "doom scrolling." Wes and Amber also discuss gratitude, spiritual discipline, and a story about monks walking from Texas toward the DC area embodying peace despite hostility. Amber describes fostering dogs, her journey into coaching beginning in 2019 after her marriage fell apart, and how self-focused healing and somatic work led others to notice changes and seek her help. She directs listeners to find her on Instagram as "The Manifesting Mama" and mentions a free school community called "The Regulated Rich and Radiant," which includes nervous system regulation content, a free money manifesting challenge, rich identity activations, and an audio-and-workbook course addressing self-abandonment, self-care, self-sabotage, and belief shifts. Amber closes by encouraging listeners to give themselves permission to change, stop waiting to feel ready, and recognize that the key to unlocking their "cages" is within them 00:00 Meet Amber: Identity & Embodiment Coach (What She Does) 00:47 Taking Up Space: Releasing Shame & Showing Up Authentically 03:17 Where to Start: Self-Love, Self-Worth & Attracting Abundance 05:20 Self-Care Practices: Mirror Work, Compassion & Receiving Energy 07:11 Healing the “Cage”: Adult Responsibility, Trauma, and Choosing a Soft Life 08:30 Money as a Relationship: Shifting Your Vibration Around Wealth 11:17 What “Embodiment” Really Means: Be–Do–Have, Identity, and Breaking Doomscrolling 13:28 A Lighter Turn: Dogs, Fostering, Gratitude—and Why Women Having Wealth Matters 14:58 Money = the power to say no (and stop dimming your light) 15:58 Monks on a peace walk: choosing non-reactivity in a chaotic world 18:32 The enlightened dog & animals sensing energy 19:24 Abigail the healer dog and the sacred stones story 20:12 Amber’s origin story: heartbreak, self-discovery, and becoming an embodiment coach 22:27 From self-care to somatic tools: regulating energy and helping others transform 25:22 Where to find Amber: Instagram + the free “Regulated Rich & Radiant” community 29:07 Final message: give yourself permission to change (you hold the key) 30:09 Wrap-up, gratitude, and how to connect with the show /episode/index/show/8021632e-0e35-467f-94b8-48ce66f43fb7/id/40109315
