Ep 148. Have you ever felt that you have completely lost your identity inside a relationship? Or ever struggled with identifying your feelings until another person either helps you… or prevents you from having to metabolize those feelings altogether? This episode has been a long time in the making. What is codependency really, and how does it tie into the deep shame that women so often feel in so many parts of our lives— our productivity, our bodies, our relationships? Why does it feel so deeply woven into our lineage + society, and the ways in which we were taught to love and be loved? Vanessa Bennett, relationship therapist and author of The Motherhood Myth, is breaking down the science behind codependency, why romantic relationships are one of the only socially sanctioned addictions in our culture, and tangible tools to address dysfunctional attachment when it does appear. We are diving into what codependency looks like in real, day-to-day relationships, and why we tend to show up differently with different people. She breaks down why both men and women carry a deep "choose me" wound, and how this can evolve into codependency if not questioned. Thank you all so much for listening, and Happy New Year!

HERE'S THE JUICE:

• Why shame and the fear of abandonment are often the two throughlines that exist in everybody who struggles with codependency

• Vanessa takes a deep dive into the science of codependency and what it often looks like day-to-day in romantic relationships

• Why is it so important to identify if the system we are operating in is coming from a place of lack vs. enhancement

• The truth about why we show up differently in different relationships and why attachment styles are often a spectrum with different people, as opposed to a finite label

• The history behind why both men and women often have a "choose me" wound

• How values have changed in the last 100 years and why our lineage often plays into how we experience attachment, highlighting how attachment for women has gone from a place of need to a place of want ONLY in the last 50 years

Ep 147. Have you ever wondered if pain, shame, or anger is showing up in your life because it's the key to something deeper? What does it actually mean to be an intuitive healer? And how do we learn to hear what our own pain has been trying to tell us our entire lives? This week, Manuela Welton, an energy healer who has spent nearly two decades helping individuals, companies, and even governments understand themselves on a deeper energetic level, is breaking down loss, fear, and judgment from an energy perspective. From her gifts being discovered as a four-year-old child to experiencing devastating loss that shaped her childhood, she shares how the death of her parents became one of her greatest initiations into her path. If you've ever felt like you just need an energetic clean slate and to validate or move stuck energy that has stayed with you WAY too long, this episode will feel like the hand you have needed to hold. I'm so honored to share such a sacred relationship that I have worked so closely with over the last couple years. Manuela truly has a one-of-kind gift. Thank you all so much for listening.

HERE'S THE JUICE:

• Breaking down what an intuitive energy healer REALLY does, and accessible tools to tap into

• Manuela shares the first signs she had spiritual gifts and how loss became her doorway into her gift

• Why Western culture is afraid to feel, and the subtle ways we are actually disconnecting ourselves from what is energetically meant for us

• Understanding the fear of death, and why grief requires us to feel all the way through, not avoid. The most important piece of this is not to be equally afraid of life.

• Is fear of letting go just fear of our own capacity for freedom?

• How to ask the people closest to you: "What do you see in me that others can't?" Understanding that the people we love can often help us find our gifts.

• Practices to clear your energy and tune into what is truly yours vs. what is noise

Ep. 146 Is heightened intuition a gift or a trauma response? Why is it stronger for some than others, and what is the science behind why some people have 'psychic' abilities? Laura Day, world-renowned intuitive and bestselling author of Practical Intuition and her new book The Prism, is diving into why our unique childhood experiences & 'wounds' can determine the ways in which our intuition may express as an adult. Laura grew up in a chaotic home affected by suicide, manic depression, and narcissism, effectively raising her siblings alone, and is sharing how her beginning actually became the portal to discovering her intuitive gifts. She breaks down the important difference between intuition and wisdom, and why intuition can be both a superpower and a stumbling block depending on how we develop it.

HERE'S THE JUICE
- Breaking down how she developed her gift for intuition through trauma, highlighting how many of our childhoods are prone to trauma due to lack of power
- Laura shares her early life experiences – coming from three generations of physicians, and how that gave her a data-driven approach to intuition
- Why the very things that challenged us most often become our points of greatest strength and tangible steps to identify our challenges and take small steps to create the life we want
- The importance of avoiding the trap of constantly trying to "change yourself" and instead approaching the mind as a mechanical system that may only need a small change
- The crucial difference between intuition and wisdom
- Why intuition is a double-edged sword and when we should and shouldn't listen to it
