Welcome back lovers! Let's be honest, we all love a good deep creep now and again. Whether we're creeping on our new lover, a crush or a former flame...we're curious beings. We love looking for hidden treasure amiright?! Here's the deal though, too much of anything is going to turn sideways. And the deep creep DEFINITELY falls into this category.

• The ins and outs of deep creeping on the socials during the dating phase
• What deep creeping *can* be good for• What the deep creep allows us to avoid and tolerate• The big red flag that impact the health of a future relationship that we often miss when we're balls deep in a fantasy, deep creep spiral. • Fantasy, deep creepin and avoiding reality oh my!

2022 has been a wild ride, one filled with plenty of ups and downs (listen to episode 40 HERE for all the details on that one). But one of the most special aspects of this year was finally seeing how the world of my music/singing is merging with the relational mastery work I teach in the world. To see these two HUGE parts of me beginning to intersect is such a beautiful and exciting thing...only took me 40 years but here we are doing it! In this episode I give you an exclusive behind the scenes breakdown of what the song Always Love You is about, the deeper relational threads at play and the medicinal transmission we've coded into the final track.

Welcome to the second last episode of season 2 friends! In this episode we explore navigating the holidays when if it's a tough time for you. The holidays aren't always merry, bright and full of jolly cheer. They can be a hard time of year.

If you've struggled over the holidays or notice you slip into numbing out coping patterns during this season this is a little love letter to your heart from mine. We cover:
• Dealing with big emotions over the holidays• When the mind dominates the emotions vs getting in approval of your emotions• Numbing out over the holidays, why it happens and how to navigate it with awareness and intentionality and NO SHAMING. • How to set up important conversations from a place of reverence• The importance of becoming a compassionate witness to your experience over the holidays.

I also share the BIG expansion moments of this year (big magical things happening with music and the final pieces of my new body of work) and how every twist and turn of this year has invited me to explore a more nuanced path of alchemy, finding my true pace and connecting to the threads of the deepest, truest desires. It's a rich rich episode. We also dive into:• What is emotional and energetic range.• Honouring our range in our day to day- how well are we listening to our signals, needs and what is really true?• The role embodiment plays when it comes to staying within range.• Destigmitizing the emotional world • What it takes to be with life no matter what life throws your way.• When the ego picks up the spiritual lingo and leads you astray lol• Getting cockblocked by the universe and the blessing of it• Right relationship with reality.• The three main pillars of my body of work

S2.Ep.39 Moving At The Pace of Slow + Healing Update
Friday Nov 25, 2022
Friday Nov 25, 2022
Hi loves! It's been so long since we've connected here and I'm stoked to be back! In this episode I give you a behind the scenes look at the deep initiation portals that my injury has taken me on (the main reason behind the hiatus) and the medicine of moving at the pace of slow. Slowing down in a world obsessed with faster is a wild act of rebellion, it's also necessary for our embodiment and ability to relate in nourishing and connective ways. It's been a deeply powerful few months opening and unwinding as I navigate healing my injury and anchoring in a new decade full of these mystical lessons. Enjoy! BLACK FRIDAY SALE STARTS TODAYAs mentioned on the episode today is the kick off of my first ever Black Friday Sale. Nov 25th-27th all of my self-study programs are 50% off.
