Episode 115 - Death, Rebirth, and lots of signs from Spirit
Early in June I recognized that I’d overextended myself. I never considered myself to be a people pleaser nor did I think I was bad with my boundaries, but evidence to the contrary revealed itself! I started out my summer overwhelmed, burned out and with a dysregulated nervous system. I’d seen a homeopath who gave me a remedy that brought all this to the forefront. It course corrected me and its effects aided in me recognizing where I’d overcommitted myself, forcing me to confront needed change. Between the homeopathic remedy and the goddess Kali, it became evident that I’d need to clear my plate in a big way to usher in whatever new energies that needed to take place. It was a transformative summer, one where I was mostly a recluse and in cocoon mode. A metamorphosis… All to rise again, a fresher, better version of myself! Sometimes I wish I was exempt from human suffering, but why be put on this planet as a human if not to get the full human experience? Hope you enjoy listening in!

Hope you enjoy and gain something from listening in on it!

Episode 113 - Taylor Swift and the Divine Feminine with Meredith Beardmore
I’m so excited to bring you today’s episode! I will be geeking out about Taylor Swift and the Divine Feminine with therapist – and Swiftie- Meredith Beardmore.
Meredith Beardmore is a psychotherapist operating a private practice, the author of Hey Addiction, Thanks for NOTHING!: A Brutally Honest Guide to Loving an Addict Without Losing Your Mind, and is also known as “Mend with Mere” from her successful YouTube Channel.
Meredith is an Ohio State University graduate with a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Meredith specializes in substance abuse treatment, helping family members of addicts and treating emerging adults with various issues, from identity development to depression.
Her YouTube Channel, “Mend with Mere,” initially intended for therapy discussions, became a platform for analyzing song lyrics, primarily Taylor Swift's, garnering thousands of subscribers and over 5 million hours of watch time.
I am so happy to have found MEND WITH MERE, and her channel where she often thoughtfully discusses, dissects and reacts to songs. I stumbled upon her page in the research that goes along w dissecting lyrics! The recent Taylor Swift album – the Tortured Poets Department- is rich with amazing and meaningful songs that really sent me down rabbit holes.
I’ve recently become a Swiftie, and I’m not embarrassed to admit it! The more I’ve learned about Taylor Swift and her work, the more I’ve grown to love her! When she started the Eras tour last year I noticed all the girl mom friends of mine who went to see the show with their daughters were just as crazy to see her as their daughters were… this intrigued me and I ended up watching the Netflix Special on her called “MISS AMERICANA”. From there I really grew to really respect her as an artist and person. It’s clear she’s a smart, self-aware and sensitive. I only began delving into her catalogue since February of this year after watching her video for “You Need To Calm Down”. Seeing how she advocates for the LGBTQ really warmed my heart- I cried when I first saw it even tho it’s not necessarily a tear jerker! As a mom to a transgirl it made me even happier to see someone with this platform saying F U to the naysayers. I then started listening to her on Spotify, just letting it play… I heard the song “I Did Something Bad” where she mentions how narcissists love her (common for empaths) and then she sang “They’re burning all the witches even if you aren’t one…. So light me up” and I got CHILLS so bad!! I could feel the power she was channeling and was floored!
I later learned about the song Willow and her video for that where it looks like a coven of women dancing around the moon—fun fact, this tree is associated with Hecate—Queen of the Witches, goddess of the underworld connected to magic and divination. Witch isn’t a bad word- a witch is a woman in her power who can transmute energy and Taylor Swift does just that. From the snakes being thrown her way w the bs drama she had with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, where she turned it around for fuel for her Reputation album, to changing the script on London and her relationship to that city (We recorded this just prior to those shows… Travis Kelce is clearly the Divine Masculine and his performance with Taylor on stage was so symbolic and amazing. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, clearly you are NOT a Swiftie, lol. Google it! Night 3 London, June 22). They both really embody the divine feminine and masculine so strongly.
Nothing prepared me tho for when she premiered her performance of “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me” from her new album in Paris back in May. This was an empowered woman, not hiding her rage and playfully playing on people’s fears/accusations of her being a witch. I ate that shit up!! Every single time I listen to or watch that song I get chills and my eyes fill with tears. She channels such power and light.
Meredith and I speak about sacred rage, how it’s necessary to feel in order to heal, we speak on intuition and how it grows after the arrival of our children. We speak about our kids on the spectrum and their heightened sensitivities, and we also touch on the oh so common narcissist and empath connection.
I loved my conversation with Meredith, we meandered a bit and I love all the different directions we went in. I hope you enjoy it too!!

On Episode 112, I wanted to share with you when I was a guest on the “No Bs Human Design Podcast”, about a year ago. I recently re-listened to it and thought it’d be worthwhile to share here w you all. I’d interviewed Human design expert Adriana Keefe as a guest on my show last year and then I was a guest on hers. We had a fun conversation regarding the work that I do and how I do what I do. She shared her perspective in being on the receiving end of a distance healing session from me and I appreciated her insights and feedback. You know how I’m a fan of sharing fun and cool spiritual stories, and there were definitely a few in this episode. Enjoy!

Episode 109: Conversation with Life Coach and Energy Healer, Victoria O’Conner Blazeski
Coach Tori’s story starts like many others, before she found her way as a spiritual healer, she followed a traditional path towards success, and by many people's standards, had achieved it. Through 2021, she worked at a top tier, global accounting firm doing international corporate tax for financial services companies, was happily married and had kids she adored. However, despite all of this perceived success, she wasn't happy. In 2019 she experienced severe burnout that lead to a transformational break-down, and break-through journey that led her to Life Coaching and the Dharma Coaching Institute where she completed the life purpose and spiritual life coaching training. She also became a Reiki Master in 2022, and began specializing in distance energy healings which allowed her to bring together the skills she’d learned and the psychic talents she’d fostered since she was a child.
Tori reached out to me a few years ago to participate in one of my “Rebalance Retreats” and in getting to know her, I have enjoyed hearing her stories and perspectives on her experiences. She recently helped me with a powerful session which spurred me to ask her to be on my show! I hope you enjoy listening in and hearing her story.
(In this episode I refer to a powerful healing session that I had with Tori, check out episode 106 for more details on that)

On Episode 107, I speak with Pelvic Floor Specialist and Energy Healer, Dr. Arántzazu Cioce. Zazu started her healer journey as a Doctor of Physical Therapy, specializing in Pelvic Health and supporting mothers during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period. Working within the traditional hospital and outpatient clinics she saw that there continued to be a gap in support and care for women having babies, and knew that a more WHOLE-istic way of caring for people was how she was meant to serve others. So she started her own Physical Therapy practice, Phoenix Physical Therapy and also started supporting mamas as a Birth Doula and Birth Educator to empower birthing people to stand up for their rights in birth and in their experience.
She always sensed there was something deeper to be explored when it came to healing our physical bodies by tapping into our emotional and intuitive experiences, and it was then through her personal journey with grief and death, that she was opened to the world of energy healing and collaborating with Spirit along the healing path. Now after a decade of experience working with the physical body, she has unlocked her own combination of physical, energy and intuitive healing work, individualizing care as unique as each individual she works with to create deep transformation.
She is currently creating sacred virtual spaces for those mothers who seek both EMPOWERMENT within our current medical system and INTUITIVE RECONNECTION with their bodies and babies during conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Zazu began giving me PT for my shoulder back in August and has since become a soul sister and fellow lightworker friend! We always have a good time, and I hope you enjoy learning about her!

Episode 106 My left shoulder is something that started to bother me many years ago. After ignoring it for so long, I decided to finally address it. Little did I know the journey that digging into this pain would reveal. It took a village of talented women to help me put the pieces together to uncovering all that was hidden within this nagging pain. Listen in for some fascinating insights that were revealed as the issue has begun to clear! This work is truly amazing.

Episode 105: Talking to Trees with Kara Daniels
If you know me, you know I’m a tree lover. When I saw a post on “Tree Communication” by Kara from Deep Root Connections shared by a friend, I got way excited. I was so happy to hear someone talking out loud about things I know to be true!
Kara believes that each of us holds the innate ability to communicate, co-create, and heal with all life, seen and unseen. The nature spirits, the guardians of the land and physical beings want to reignite our relationship with them and work together. It is Kara’s goal to help us commune with the unseen realms, to co-create and heal with our animals, our land and home.
I really hope you enjoy this conversation. We were really just excited to talk w fellow kindred spirits, and I am hopeful that you will find some of it interesting and fascinating. And truly, it’s all real which is so freaking awesome. Magic is real, our connection to nature is real and I hope that this excites you and you enjoy listening.

Episode 104: Entheogens with Christian Rasmussen
Ethnobotanicals are a fascinating and diverse group of plants that have played an important role in human cultures for centuries. From providing us with food and shelter to medicine and spirituality, plants have been an integral part of our lives since the beginning of human civilization. Entheogens are drugs/plants/medicine that give you a spiritual experience. The word entheogen literally means “creating the divine within,” and is derived from the Greek roots en (within) theo (divine) and gen (creates). Entheogens have been used by indigenous peoples for millennia for “healing, knowledge, creativity, and spiritual connection.
Christian Rasmussen is the owner of Minnesota Nice Ethnobotanicals, the largest Amanita muscaria retailer, wholesaler and importer in the country. After Amanita healed his brain while going through a grueling benzodiazepine withdrawal, Christian formed MN Nice to bring Amanita to the states. He’s collected thousands of anecdotal reports about amanita healing everything from anxiety, insomnia, and depression to more complex physical issues like neurological late-stage Lyme disease. He is dedicated to educating about the mushrooms’ healing, spiritual, and practical potential, and giving people access to this most iconic, yet most misunderstood mushroom in the world.
We spend our time talking about Amanita Muscaria along with some other ethnobotanicals and entheogens and their healing effects as well as mind expanding aspects.

Episode 102: Interview with Former Client and Student, Stephanie
On today’s episode, I speak with Stephanie Saunders- a client and student of mine from about 8 years ago. I thought it’d be nice to share the story of her spiritual awakening. Plus, she was a client I immediately clicked with and wanted to catch up with her! Soon after she took Reiki 1 with me, she got the strong urge to move to Arizona, and listened! I have enjoyed watching her life unfold from a distance via her IG account, and wanted to learn more about how things have gone with her behind the scenes! :) Hope you enjoy hearing her story!

Episode 100: Thankful for my Teachers!
I’m at 100 episodes already! So crazy. And I’m releasing this episode on Thanksgiving 2023, it seems appropriate that on today’s show I sit down with three of my most impactful spiritual teachers. I am so THANKSFUL for all three of them, Janet Hensenne-Rosiak, Maura Bertotti and Joanne Kelleher. I love these women SO MUCH and was so excited that they agreed to meeting in this way!

On episode 96, I speak with Hana O'Neill of Suburban Witchery. I first learned of Hana bc the name “Suburban Witch” came to mind and I figured someone else had already thought of it. I was right- and she’s that someone all the way on the other side of the world in Australia! I signed up for her mailing list and started following her on social media immediately, as we have a similar vibe and purpose.
Hana’s goal is to make Witchcraft and alternative spirituality fun, informative and accessible to all. She runs a course on Psychic Divination, blogs about Witchcraft and Astrology, hosts a podcast ‘Witch Talks’ and loves to teach about Spellcrafting, Tarot tutorials, Witchcraft basics and even details her own journey from Pentecostal Christian to proud Witch.
We had a very easy time talking, hope you enjoy our stories!
