Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine

*This episode was originally released in June 2023. Wondering if my current audience still resonates with the dating episodes:)
Breaking up is hard to do. It can be absolutely brutal when a relationship comes to an end leaving us feeling like a life force we've come to know and enjoy has just disappeared. There can be a lot of crying, deep sadness, confusion, questions, and intense longing to reconnect with our lost love. The more connected with our Divine Feminine self we are the less of an impact these endings have, because our worth and emotional well being isn't as tied up in other people. Yet we're still Human and it can be a struggle anytime you lose love. The question of this episode is... is what you're feeling really heart break or just an ego bruise?
On this episode I share what I mean by ego bruising and distinguish between a connection based in ego, fear, and deficit compared to one based in love, security, and feelings of safety. Hint; one relates to the Divine Feminine and the other to codependency.

* THIS EPISODE WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN OCTOBER, 2023! T SHOULD STILL HOLD UP ;)*

I'm on a Self Love kick lately and I'm hoping many of you will join me. especially after the eclipse and New Moon in Libra this past weekend. I feel this strong sense that it's time to step forward and never look back. To end the comparisons and the self criticism. A time to truly embody the Divine Feminine Empress energy. Falling in love with ourselves in the name of the highest good for all beings. We owe this to ourselves and to one another because once we do this, then finally we can begin to see the changes we've been crying out for on our troubled planet.
On this Divine Feminine Solo Episode I invite you to join me in the Sacred circle of Divine love for the self. To begin seeing yourself in the light which you are truly; one of perfection and unconditional value and worth. A vision of self, free from hate and full of acceptance, understanding, and about making the best decision for ourselves even if that means needing to release people and situations from our lives to gain greater peace. Loving ourselves enough to no longer be cruel to ourselves or subject ourselves to others who are. I offer some initial steps and exercises to cultivate this energy of love and regard and release the way things have been that no longer belong in our hearts, minds, or beings.

Music, happiness, and inspiring others are a few of my favorite things. Which is why I was very excited to speak with this week's guest, Galen Bingham, The Leadership Strategist and host of the fabulous podcast, Whisky, Jazz, and Leadership. Although I've been sober now for 10 years, I'm able to relate to Galen's concept for his show where Whisky represents savoring & appreciating life and Jazz & Leadership are our own brilliant expression that inspires others. Galen and I did a pod swap after meeting on the panel for another fabulous show, Think & Grow Rich Mastermind. We appreciated each other's perspectives and proceeded to have a blast recording together speaking on all things growth, manifestation, masculine/feminine benefits, and what a true leader is.

On this guest episode, Galen and I have a thoughtful and wide-spanning conversation to explore what makes us happy, inspires, and motivates us. Galen brought some very thoughtful concepts to the show including, presence beyond polish, the importance of passion & joy to reaching success, and why real leadership presence comes from alignment of identity, authority, and decision clarity rather than presentation skills. We also discuss the moment leaders stop waiting for permission and make the shift from performing leadership to embodying leadership.

*Originally released on the Summer Solstice in 2024. Hope it still holds up and is helpful!*
Happy Summer Solstice! We've made it to the time (in the Northern hemisphere) of sun, fun, long days, vacations, relaxation, all the good stuff! Yet...in comes Capricorn moon to keep us in check on our bullshit. It's actually a good balance that is struck here and that's what I explore today. A vibrant and celebratory time indeed! So be good & ready to have a blast this Summer even if a little hard work is suggested to allow for ultimately greater peace & ease. 
On this I solo episode I explore this rare and powerful combination of The Solstice/Full Moon and share my understanding and take on the potential for this time. Highlighting the interesting duality between the Solstice & Capricorn energy and more specifically how the Capricorn moon will be pushing us a bit to accomplish what we've set out to do and to develop our self sufficiency for greater personal freedom and expression in our lives. It will be a wild and wonderful ride for sure so hold on & enjoy!

People often ask what the personal Mission Statement is for your life. Which is an awesome exercise to do. Yet I particularly like the concept that this week's guest asks, What is your Soul Statement? Corey Lyon Folsom published his book, Soul Statements: A Love Coach’s Guide To Successful Communication in an effort to inspire others to simplify and improve their lives. His book is a practical guide full of simple, yet potent tools for making small shifts that produce outsized benefits in life and love. So what is a Soul Statement? It is not an ordinary affirmation. Rather, it is a present-time reminder of what is true & good & resourceful about yourself, which creates greater emotional coherence. Fabulous concept right?
On this guest episode I have a delightful time exploring many beautiful concepts with Corey including why he wrote his book and how Soul Statements can improve inner clarity and communication. Corey also talks a lot about how Soul Statements can help with relationships to shift from conflict to harmony and flow and make us more empathic partners, co-workers and friends. They also improve self care and help align routines with our visions and goals. Is there anything Soul Statements cant do?? With a name like that I would say, no! In addition, Corey shares about his work as a relationship coach and how he helps clients create a path to having the love they desire.
Bio: As a certified relationship coach, Corey Lyon Folsom helps people increase connection and clarity. He has also been a wilderness guide for newly sober people and a vision quest leader. During a spiritual soul-awakening in 2009 Corey experienced the pure joy that is available
when one is deeply aligned with Spirit. He then embarked on a development journey with Non-Violent Communication (NVC), Source School of Tantra Yoga, Love Coach Academy, Tony Robbins and other programs. Each of these experiences enhanced Corey’s access to his inner resources and compassion. Corey’s award-winning book, Soul Statements: A Love Coach’s Guide To Successful Communication, is a practical guide full of simple, yet potent tools for making small shifts that produce outsized benefits in life and love. He enjoys daily movement and makes time for stillness. Corey is the father of two adult sons and is very proud of his 10 year-old grandson.
