Magical Humaning
Magical Humaning is a podcast about relationships — with ourselves, with others, with our bodies, and with the mysterious, loving force that holds us all. It’s a sanctuary for anyone who suspects there’s more to life than “just getting through,” and who longs for joy, purpose, connection, and wonder woven into everyday living. In each episode, host Meghan O’Malley — a former therapist turned coach, guide, and forever student of this messy, magical human experience — invites you into honest conversations about the stories we live, the healing that frees us, and the perspective shifts that help us step into a more fulfilling, purpose-full life. This is not about bypassing the hard, but about meeting it honestly, reframing our experiences into wisdom, and remembering that we’re not meant to do this alone. Because when we live into our wholeness, we naturally become invitations for others to do the same — and that’s where the real magic lives.

Episode 43: Wintering and the Natural Process of Creative Surrender
In this episode, I’m inviting you into the quiet, often uncomfortable space of wintering—the season where clarity doesn’t come from pushing forward, but from slowing down enough to listen. We explore why the New Year’s pressure to plan, produce, and “figure it all out” can actually pull us out of alignment, and how our nervous systems cling to certainty—even when what’s familiar is no longer working. I share personal reflections on choosing stillness, releasing over-availability, and allowing old identities and patterns to gently die so something truer can emerge. This conversation is an invitation to consider a different question than What’s next? What if the work right now is to intentionally not know—and trust that wisdom grows in the quiet? We touch on Human Design, the themes behind my upcoming TEDx Asheville talk, and insights from Unstuck Yourself**—all pointing back to the same truth: rest, boundaries, and presence are not delays; they’re the soil. ✨ Tune in to remember: you don’t need to force the next chapter. Winter (the one within) has its own wisdom just waiting to unfold. 💌 Head over to to sign up for my newsletter & stay connected! P.S. If this episode resonates, share it with someone who’s feeling the pressure to rush ahead. Wintering is easier—and more powerful—when we remember we’re not alone.

Episode 42: Relational Burnout: The Hidden Patterns Beneath Doing Too Much

Episode 42: Relational Burnout: The Hidden Patterns Beneath Doing Too Much
In this episode, I’m inviting you beneath the surface of burnout to explore what I call relational burnout—the deeper energetic and emotional patterns that quietly drain us long before we officially “hit the wall.” Together, we’ll trace burnout back to its true roots: the relationships that shape how we give, receive, and restore our energy. You’ll hear how this exploration unfolded for me while writing —and how it revealed not just my habits of overdoing, but the subtle ways I’d disconnected from myself in the name of being good, helpful, or strong. This conversation is an invitation to look beyond patterns of external over-DOing and ask: what part of me have I been abandoning in the name of trying to be enough, be seen, or fill some other gaps in my life? When we begin to repair our relationships—with ourselves, our bodies, life itself, and the people we are closes with—our energy starts to flow again. We remember that boundaries are sacred, that empathy doesn’t require depletion, and that the way we care for ourselves teaches the world how to love us back. ✨ Tune in to remember: your energy is sacred, your needs are not negotiable, and your presence—rooted and replenished—is one of the most generous gifts you can offer.

Episode 41: Everyday Activism (Embodied Ripples of Revolution)
When you think of activism, what comes to mind? Protests? Petitions? Big, bold gestures of resistance? While those forms of activism are vital, there’s another revolution happening in quieter ways — in how we show up in our everyday lives. In this episode, we explore embodied activism — the idea that our healing, our relationships, and the way we move through the world can be one of the most powerful forms of collective change. Together, we’ll dive into: Why personal transformation isn’t selfish, but a ripple of impact that changes the collective. How the energy we carry in our bodies and relationships contributes to (or shifts) the larger cultural field. How embodying the values we want for the world begins with small, unglamorous daily personal choices. A real life story of how simply carrying ourselves with presence and openness can inspire and uplift others. This conversation is an invitation to reframe how you see your contribution to the world. You don’t always need a megaphone or a title to make a difference. Your embodied wholeness — your posture, your presence, your choices, your love — is activism in action. ✨ Tune in to remember: you matter, your energy matters, and the way you live is a quiet revolution with ripple effects far beyond what you may ever see.

If this episode resonates, share it with a friend who could use the reminder that how we show up — in our being, our relationships, our everyday choices — is activism too. The ripples grow stronger together. 💛

Episode 40: Catching up: Life in Dog Years

Episode 40: Catching up: Life in Dog Years
Sometimes life moves in dog years—fast, wild, and packed with initiations. After a two-year pause, Magical Humaning is returning with a tender, truthy, all-the-feels catch-up on what’s unfolded, what cracked open, and what’s being created now. This episode is an honest look at living the “both/and”: seasons that were devastating and liberating, griefy and grace-filled—where endings and beginnings braided together. I share how I navigated a stretch that felt like a life-quake (think: relationship transitions, a scary car accident, unexpected opportunities, and the ongoing practice of surrender) and what it taught me about purpose, alignment, and letting life love you… even when it’s messy. Here’s what’s inside: the “two years in dog years” chapter—why I stepped back and why I’m back now surrender in real time (not the Instagram version): what it looked like in my body, business, and relationships holding the holy both-and: divorce alongside deep devotion, trauma alongside unexpected magic, fear alongside fierce hope how I chose gentler metrics of success (nervous system, joy, resonance) over performative hustle the surprising invitations that arrived when I stopped muscling and started listening How understanding my human design helped me meet this chapter of challenge with greater compassion and purpose If you’re in a season of recalibration or reinvention, I made this one for you. May it remind you that pauses can be portals, endings can be medicine, and you’re allowed to build a life that fits the you you’ve become. Let’s stay connected!

In this episode we’re continuing the journey of unpacking the 5 Human Design TYPES. As we explore these last three types, we share our own understandings of: *The Divine gifts (the unique magic!) of each type *The conditioned shadows (where culture can teach these types away from their authentic gifts) *The emotions to look for that can point to alignment AND misalignment (because “shoulds” can take us out of alignment pretty easily) *The aura of each (how the unique energy system of each type interacts with the world. . . and how it can feel to others) We explore those key points as well as offering some sprinklings of our signature quirkiness, personal experiences and perspectives from our own time swimming in the realm of Human Design & deconditioning.

Episode 37: Adventures in Human Design with Laura Cardwell
This week we’re officially diving into the Human Design pool, and I’m bringing my friend and radical magic collaborator Laura Cardwell along to play! In this episode: *We share our unique, yet similar, paths of resistance AND love of the Human Design realm. For both of us it was a push-pull experience. * We discuss the overwhelm that’s VERY common when starting the journey of learning about Human Design. . . and how we’ve navigated it ourselves. * We explore the embodiment aspect of deconditioning work and how we use this archetypal tool to play at the intersection of energy medicine AND more conscious perspective shifts. * We lovingly rant about the intellectualization of the Human Design field and the need to take this work out of the ego swirls of the head and into the heart. . . to really begin to LIVE our unique design. * We talk about the need to slow down, to practice patience and to really give space for the deconditioning process to “land” in our bodies and nervous systems. True deconditioning isn’t quick fix transformation, it’s lasting, sustainable empowerment, ease and magic. * And, of course, we sprinkle in some quirks and tidbits about how we’ve learned to navigate our friendship and business collaborations through the lens of our own designs. (hint: it’s WAY easier!) This is only the beginning of a series on Human Design, so if you’re a newbie, welcome! And if you’ve already been swimming in the realm of Human Design, then we hope our take on it will add something new to your journey!

Episode 36: Navigating “Completion Tours” & Retrograde Flavored Chapters of Life
Life has a way of making sure we receive the lessons we NEED, and not just the lessons we WANT. It does this by showing us the same or similar patterns, people, and energies over and over again. . . sometimes even in different “costumes” and contexts. This episode is all about how to gracefully, curiously and compassionately navigate those cringey, uncomfortable and wound-y chapters of life that most of us would prefer to avoid. Here’s the good news: There ARE approaches that make them far easier, more healing, more empowering. . . and believe it or not, even magical!. . . and THAT is exactly what I’m sharing this week! We’ve got a LOT of planets doing the retrograde dance right now, so I share what reflection they’re inviting us into (in my own “I’m not an astrologer” sort of way), and I also share some of my favorite tips for navigating any another flavor of unexpected “completion tour” that shows up in your life. We can fear these chapters or we can meet them eye to eye with intention and grace. . . and when we learn to really BE with them, life tends to get a LOT more peaceful. Trust me.

Episode 35: Surrendered Deconditioning with Chris Rinaldi
What does surrendered living really look like? How do we practice leaning into trust, even when it’s scary, painful, or kicks our wounds? What does it really feel like to choose a life of conscious deconditioning? How do we honor our very real nervous system responses to uncomfortable life experiences while still choosing alignment with empowering truth? What does it mean to “soften into our power?” What practices can we use to navigate the battle between our conditioned egos and Divine guidance? THESE are only some of the things Chris Rinaldi, Reiki master and therapist, and I explore in this episode and we’re excited to share our conversation with YOU!

Episode 34: I'm Sharing MY Daily Magic Making Practice!
Our brains are designed to look for what's wrong, which often calls in more of that. Dominant culture has trained us to orient to a sense of scarcity, which creates limiting beliefs around what is and isn’t possible. But a central part of making real deal magic is training your brain to get beyond those things, to look for sparkly bits of synchronicity, kindness, support, abundance and MAGIC. . . every day. What we focus on inevitably starts to expand in our lives. Which is why I’m sharing the details of MY magic making practice! Tune in and get the scoop on how to create your very own!

Nina is an e-learning expert who supports leaders across large and small organizations in developing meaningful learning environments for long-term impact and change. Her passion for personal transformation guides her unique approach to building learning environments inclusive of diverse people, places and platforms. In this episode, we explore. . . *Why community is essential if we want to be “bridge builders” committed to embodying the “new way” *How real, vulnerable, highly intimate and authentically human community is a powerful form of activism that creates far reaching ripples of change *Viewing necessary change connected to systems of oppression as both a social and political problem AND a human consciousness issue *Shifting from our conditioned expectations around independence toward reclaiming our inherently human tendency toward connection and interdependence *Coming home to the body as a guide toward truth, reclaimed full-spectrum humanity, shifts in consciousness and embodied activism *How daily choices in our relationships and businesses can be powerful forms of embodied activism and an investment in the world we DESIRE instead of the world we LEARNED to consent to.

Full permission. . . what does that even mean?! Well, THAT’S what we’re exploring in this week’s episode, folks! In today’s episode we explore: *What I mean when I talk about choosing to practice “full permission” expression - and how it IS NOT some sort of reckless, selfish approach to life that requires you to not care about others. *Why a commitment to full permission living is a radical practice of embodied activism (hint: because it fiercely challenges conditioning!) *How to actually begin to explore your authentic Self that lives beneath who you learned you “should be” *How small acts of permission and creative expression pave the way toward more embodied truth. *The difference between authentic pleasure and bypassing (one is rooted in alignment and the other is rooted in avoidance) *And I share my current working definition of play and some of the core aspects (according to Dr. Stuart Brown) that supported me in being LESS (overly) “responsible” and MORE playful.

In this episode we talk about. . . *How body positivity came in with great intentions, but has had some unfortunate unintended impact *How connecting with and appreciating the wisdom of the body in more unconditional ways can pave the way to all sorts of healing, empowerment and magic *The power of just LISTENING to the body without forcing an agenda. *And how redefining our relationship to our bodies may be one of the most powerful forms of activism we can practice!

Episode 29 - Your Guide to Energetic Alignment When Moving Toward a BIG vision
Big visions, offerings and leaps of faith call us toward deeper alignment. .. but, most folks aren’t talking about how to ALIGN, they’re telling us how to “make it happen.” Around here, we believe that forcing is overrated and stepping into aligned flow is a MUCH more enjoyable and inspired path. In this episode I share my step by step guide toward building and practicing energetic alignment to support the things that matter most in your life. We explore. . . *Creating SPACE for big vision, intuitive curiosity, and creating space for big visions to evolve. *Aligning TIMING by tuning into your intuition and the collective cycles and seasons. *Practicing energetic INTEGRITY and the necessary process of growth, healing and “becoming” by committing to EMBODYING the essence of the offering/vision/possibility yourself. *How to hold ALIGNED ENERGY while inviting folks in during a specific launch or manifestation period. Trust me, if you do these practices before taking massive action, things will flow a LOT more smoothly! Let’s stay connected! Find me at: Or on Instagram

When we talk about partnering with the nervous system, we’re actually entraining our body to build capacity in some way. We build capacity for things that we decide matter - for our well-being, for our future, to move toward our greatest visions in life. In this episode, I talk about. . . *Expanding capacity for pleasure and ease *Teaching the nervous system to be with “necessary discomfort” *How to expand our ability to be in states of both stillness and “not knowing” *And the tricky dance between protective independence and co-creative interdependence and connection When we learn to partner with the body, to honor where it is and lovingly guide it toward when we want to go. . . aligned magic begins to unfold.

In episode 2 of this three part series, we’re diving into all sorts of juicy gems of awareness and fun stories that emerged during my cross country roadtrip that was guided by intuition and connections along the way. In this episode: *I discuss how FOCUS is a powerful form of spell casting and magic making. Aaaaand how it’s actually our responsibility to stay curious about what we’re really focusing on so that we aren’t feeding the stories we don’t actually want. *I share about my commitment to challenge my ongoing allergy to EXPANDED and truly RECIPROCAL RECEIVERSHIP. Y’all, I’ve come a LONG way, but I knew I still had some blocks and blindspots, so. . . I practiced! A lot! *I explore the different flavors of RECEIVING. Hint: It’s not just gifts and service from other people. It can also be a practice of receiving signs, gifts, beauty and direction from the Universe. *I share about my own ongoing practice of trading my brain’s need for certainty for my soul’s desire to play in the playground of wonder-full not knowing. Possibility emerges when we make space for the story that lives beyond our control-flavored desires, you know. Magic often wants to show us the dream beyond the dream. Stay tuned for the next episode where we’ll build on this practice of wonder and unpack what I call “magical co-creation”! Let’s stay connected! Find me at: meghanomalleycoaching.com

Episode 23: My Upcoming Radical Magic Sabbatical: A love note about my path of deepened alignment
This episode is a love note from me to you. It’s personal, honest and about things that are happening in my own life. . . in real time. TLDR: I’m doing a big brave thing. . . I’m taking an extended time out and time off from my business. . . for the FIRST TIME EVER! Curious? Keep reading. In this episode I talk about: *How I came to my intuitive (and illogical) decision to take a two month sabbatical this winter while my home life is already in a state of necessary destabilization. *What deeply aligned intuitive hits feel like in the body (at least in MY body) *The powerful and at times wobbly practice of both sacred GIVING and courageous RECEIVING *The importance of “letting it all go” sometimes in order to make space for the “NEW” to flow in (and how I’m doing this with my business right now) *How I’m choosing to practice embodied freedom during my sabbatical (hint: it’s a sort of radical magic road show!) and how the narratives we carry affect our sense of freedom in life. *How our level of energetic output must be balanced with our level of receivership if we are to avoid burnout or having our big beautiful fully-embodied service in the world stifled. There’s a LOT in this episode and I hope it speaks to your heart and your unique journey of navigating grit and polishing your inner brilliance. I’ll see you in 2023!

Episode 22: Fall-ing forward: the messy art of letting go and the embodied practice of grieving
It’s fall, y’all! Aaaaand, since we are part of nature, this season inevitably comes with all sorts of growth-inducing invitations to let go, grieve and courageously allow the changes that really want to happen for our highest good (trees drop leaves and we’re invited to drop things too, you know). When we learn to allow this natural cycle of release to take place, taking compassionate and honest inventory of our lives and relationships we make space for new growth, more aligned possibilities and an overall greater sense of empowerment and lightness as we move through life. In this episode: *We explore the good-bad news that we don’t get to grow and expand without also learning to honor and embrace the necessary (and often messy, feely and illogical) grieving process *I discuss how grief and letting go is far bigger than literal death of a person/ pet. Contrary to what we’re taught, grief happens when we let go of anything (externally or internally) that we’ve held close. *We expand our understanding of HOW we experience grief - as it’s FAR more than thoughts and stories in the mind. Grief must move through the body. *I share perspectives and practices to support you in releasing the things that are no longer serving and supporting you. . . because insight is great, but without aligned, empowering action we can stay stuck. This is a season of radical compassion, brave honesty, and fierce love. It’s a time of doing the brave work of letting go, and then being really kind to ourselves and others as we navigate the messy alchemy. It’s time to lighten your load, recalibrate your life and trust fall into your next chapter. . . because in order to invite in NEW magic, you must make space by clearing out OLD, outdated “stuff.”

Episode 21: That Money Honey! with Guest Serena Hicks

Episode 21: That Money Honey! with Guest Serena Hicks
I’m joined today with the fabulous “High Priestess Money Witch”, Serena Hicks. Serena’s sacred money work is based on the belief that we ALL can get into the practice of loving ourselves, choosing ourselves, and trusting ourselves in spite of the conditioned beliefs we often have around money. The stories we learn have socialized us to stay scared, to not receive abundantly, to “play it safe” and to fear our power and capacity to be stewards of wealth, BUT there IS another way. . . a more magical and empowered relationship with money where we use abundance to positively impact not only our own lives, but to also CHANGE THE WORLD. If this episode resonates with you, you can learn more about Serena Hicks and her group program, The Boom-Boom Room, “where patriarchal programming about you and money goes boom” at www.serenahicks.com. As well as following her on social media platforms.

Episode 20: The Non-linear Life: Reclaiming the full scope of our human experience

Episode 20: The Non-linear Life: Reclaiming the full scope of our human experience
In today’s episode we’ll explore the radical idea of living a nonlinear life. Bottom line: We’re sold a very rigid, linear story of how things “should be”, but humanity is NOT linear! So, let’s get curious about WHY we think and believe what we think and believe so that we can have greater clarity about WHAT we CHOOSE to do or not do. In this episode we explore. . . *The core values of the systems of oppression that shape us. *How those core values shape the stories we accept as truth. . . even when those stories aren’t made for us and don’t honor real humanity. *Things to ponder to start unbinding ourselves from the rigidity of the “linear story” of success, relationship, and humaning, in general. *How nature is the most powerful teacher as we create new stories to serve true growth, healing and connection. *And what radical actions and practices support us coming home to our most expanded experience of living a human-affirming and empowering life? I’m so excited to share this episode with you all so that more folks can ride the organic waves of cycles, seasons and natural energies associated with being human. . . as THAT is where the magical alchemy really happens!

Episode 19: Reclaiming “Enoughness” with Nona Jordan

Episode 19: Reclaiming “Enoughness” with Nona Jordan
I am thrilled to introduce you to Nona Jordan. Nona is a mother, a trained psychotherapist, and energetic business coach, who is deeply committed to supporting women in redefining success and healing core wounds. In this episode we dive into exploring the concept of “Enoughness,” and what it's really like, as professional women, to try to embody a sense of sufficiency in a world that is constantly bombarding us with messages that it’s some sort of elusive thing “out there” that we must keep chasing. . . which is exhausting! We are facing some potent collective invitations for healing right now, and Nona and I are doing our best to support that process. . . in our own lives AND in our work in the world. You see, when we dare to heal our core wounds around not being “_______ enough” (insert any specific story you learned or inherited around - wealth, goodness, intelligence, lovability, success, etc.), we begin to not only heal ourselves but also send powerful ripples of healing toward collective wounds (lineage, ancestry, and collective trauma). This is the magic of quantum entanglement y’all! If you’re feeling an inner tickle calling you to deepen your personal power, this episode may speak to your soul. And if you would like to learn more about Nona, find her on nonajordan.com (and sign up for her newsletter, as it’s rich with inspo!) or connect through any of her social media platforms.

Episode 18: Possibilitarianism: Writing a New Narrative for Changing the World with Mina Raver

Episode 18: Possibilitarianism: Writing a New Narrative for Changing the World with Mina Raver
I’m joined today with the absolutely amazing Mina Raver. Mina is MANY things, but in my eyes, more than anything, Mina is a brilliant, wise and fiercely dedicated activator, who believes that “impossible” is a limiting belief. In this episode we talk about the necessary (and long overdue) shake up that is happening in the collective, so much of our conversation is exploring what we’ve learned about creating change and what new approaches actually support forward movement. I mean, we can’t solve the problems facing us by using the same approaches that created them, right?! We talk about what it’s REALLY like to say yes to a purpose driven career path (hint: it’s scary, messy, and humbling in addition to being deeply inspiring), and we talk about the 2000 Days Project that Mina has founded this year. This project is a collaboration of passionate change-makers who are willing to think outside the box in order to invest in creating a NEW way forward on both an individual and collective level. We talk big vision AND we’re honest about our real experiences as two women who are walking our talk and doing our part to create massive ripples of positive change in this world. If you are intrigued and/or would like to learn more about The 2000 Days Project, you can find more information at 2kdaysproject.com or simply search Mina Raver.

Episode 17: The Body as a Wise Guide: Reframing Illness and Injury

Episode 17: The Body as a Wise Guide: Reframing Illness and Injury
This is not a conversation where I’m claiming to declare some sort of absolute truth. It IS a conversation about playing with a new, expanded, curious and compassionate perspective that might make life feel a bit easier, a bit more whole and that may support more healing. In this episode, I’m inviting you to play with the “holy-both and” of healing and explore some “what ifs”. . . *What if we don’t make any ONE aspect of healing THE focus, but instead stay curious about ALL of them? When we think holistically, we MUST look at the physical (obviously) but often the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects are overlooked. *What if we stopped looking at things “going wrong” and started putting energy toward de-coding what the body is actually trying to tell us beneath the discomfort and fear? There is power in getting beyond blame, victimhood and attachment to how things “should be” to create space to de-code what MUST be for us to be more whole, more interconnected, more empowered and more connected spiritually. *What if our bodies are just trying to show us the things, people, perspectives and beliefs that we’re still holding onto that are actually causing harm? (self-betrayal, ignored grief, bypassed pain, unlived truth, etc.) *What if our body is trying to get us to move authentic emotions that we thought we had to suppress in order to survive? (but are now weighing us down and eating away at us from the inside) *What if our body doesn’t have any idea about right/ wrong or good/ bad when it comes to situations, it just knows what’s aligned and healthy for us. . . outside of the stories of who/ what we “should be/ do”? What if it’s the most honest compass we have? Healing has a LOT of layers and this conversation is meant to open the door to going a bit deeper with it all in service of expanding our understanding of real deal empowering, sustainable healing, as I believe that the body is our most helpful guide in our deconditioning journey. . . especially when we can actually receive the gifts and guidance it's trying to offer.

Episode 16: The Great Divine Regression

Episode 16: The Great Divine Regression
In this episode, I’ll share my perspective on the massive collective shift that is happening in our country, and how we can work with the heaviness, strong emotions, social polarity and stuckness that so many of you are feeling right now. Key ideas in this episode: *We live in a world where we are not taught how to hold big, intense emotional experiences in healthy, productive ways. And we must learn to work WITH intense emotions to create powerful change. *Deep change follows a nonlinear model ~ it’s cyclical. It’s messy. *We rarely get to do it alone ~ we need input, perspective and energy from others to co-create real, lasting transformation. *Surrender is part of the recipe. We must practice letting go and releasing what we know to make space for something new. *Foundational change, healing and transformation is always macro AND micro ~ everything you do to heal yourself affects the world, and everything going on in the world affects you (even when we think we’re separate from what’s happening to others). *I hope this episode affirms your oh so human feelings, inspires you to continue down your own path of healing, and helps you feel a bit less “stuck” in your ability to keep moving forward with your unique and precious part in co-creating collective change. Let’s connect! https://www.meghanomalleycoaching.com/

Episode 15: Conscious Nomading + Aligned Surrender with Dani Fake

Episode 15: Conscious Nomading + Aligned Surrender with Dani Fake
Today I am joined by my friend and coachy colleague, Dani Fake, Dani is a trained psychotherapist + depth coach (and is also the reason I originally made the leap from therapist to coach myself). In this episode we’ll go deep with stories about Dani’s spiritual nomading journeys + brave leaps of faith, AND we’ll also get very real about the brutiful (and at times wildly overwhelming + unpredictable) nature of the path of soul-led expansion. . .because honoring the soul’s callings and practicing radical faith is NOT the narrative we’re most often taught. This episode explores our tendencies to avoid soul whispers with the knee jerk conditioned response of “I can’t because…?” in order to move toward the more curious and open response of “I wonder how I can?. . . or I wonder what might be possible if. . . ?” We’ll explore what it can look like to courageously say YES to the often “illogical” invitations to grow, expand and practice radical faith, because magic-making often requires that we let go of “the plan” we had to open to unimaginable possibility, and trust. Next level ACTIVE trust = next level MAGIC and this episode will offer some real stories of what it can look like to practice radical trust. Connect with Dani Fake: on her website, Danifake.com or Linkedin @danifake.

Episode 14: Alignment Over Everything
Really, folks. When it comes to magical humaning alignment. Is. EVERYTHING! In today's episode, we will unpack this core concept -like wtf does it really even mean?, and we’ll explore HOW to practice it. Because it IS an ongoing, active PRACTICE. The bottom line is that we have far more choice than we realize about aligning with deep truth OR with external expectations, with blazing our own trail OR with fitting in and making nice. The voice of compassion tells us it's ok to be scared but the voice of alignment calls us to be brave enough to make the choice that is most authentic and true. . . and when we align with what is most real and true THAT is when the next level magic finds us.
