  • You've heard of manifestation, right? It's not about wishful thinking, but aligning thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions to turn dreams into reality.

    Business mentor Alexandria Wombwell-Povey transformed her life from a depleted and uninspired insurance broker, to deeply fulfilled, abundant, and joyful.

    Imagine building your dream house in Tulum or experiencing a life-changing retreat on Richard Branson’s private island! Alexandria has done it all - and her ambition started with a vision board, faith, and a little bit of delusion.

    But her journey to this dream life in supporting other women wasn’t a straight shot – in this episode, she gets raw and vulnerable about why she still throws herself pity parties, how she sets boundaries (especially in the DMs), and how pregnancy and motherhood was an eye-opening, “radical realignment” in her life.

    If Alexandria can so powerfully transform her tears into triumph, what can YOU do with your story? What's your first step towards manifesting the life you were meant for?

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    Alexandria’s emotional breakdown on a train home to visit her parents and the leap of faith she took shortly thereafter The power of self-belief (and sometimes delusion) even when your hard work doesn’t at first seem to be paying off Her thoughts on manifestation: laws of vibration, laws of attraction, and laws of ACTION – plus, Alexandria’s life-changing retreat on Necker Island with Richard Branson The “slap in the face” she received when she was living her best life – and how it brought her closer to herself than she’d ever been before How pregnancy and motherhood forced Alexandria to create boundaries and honor a rhythm of life where some things – alcohol, for example – just doesn’t fit the same way anymore

  • There’s one daily practice Karolina swears by, and she’s been doing it for years. It’s a little embarrassing (and a little OCD), but it’s SO easy to copy, and more importantly, it works!

    It’s not an app or some fancy software. All you need is a few 5x8 notepads and a curiosity to track everything from your aspirations to your self-care rituals.

    Spoiler alert? Writing in a notepad is not just about making a list and crossing off to-dos. It's about celebrating every micro-win and giving yourself a well-deserved dopamine dose.

    Karolina breaks down her EXACT system in this episode, including why she uses multiple notebooks and what she tracks on a regular basis. This simple strategy is one of the most powerful ways to reward your habits and maintain progress on your goals, in just 5 minutes a day.

    If you’ve ever felt the satisfaction from crossing off a task on your to-do list, then maybe this secret hack to success is something you’ll love, too.

  • Why do we hit invisible ceilings in our happiness, love, and success?

    This is the "upper limit problem," and it's sneakier than you might think… often leading us to self-sabotage, just when things are starting to look up.

    Today’s guests, Gay and Katie Hendricks, are literally Karolina’s idols. Experts on all things personal growth and relationships, they have trained thousands of coaches, authored more than 40 books, and have even appeared on Oprah.

    It’s time to peel back the layers of upper limits and smash our own glass ceilings. When we fear we’re shining too bright, we’re dimming our zone of genius. This problem can also seep into our relationships – impacting our personal growth AND our happiness.

    Karolina has experienced the upper limit problem personally and with her clients. Hear how she had one of the worst weeks ever following the excitement of her 6-figure book deal. Why is this phenomenon even happening to us?

    Don’t miss the key insights from Gay and Katie on “conscious loving” to build healthy, dynamic relationships, and how to unlearn the unconscious patterns we repeatedly fall into.

And the evolutionary reasons why people often can’t handle long periods of time where things go well How to unearth your genius by revisiting your childhood: what did you love to do?

  • Your subconscious mind controls your beliefs, values, emotions, personality, and essentially drives your reality.

    We act out what we subconsciously believe we are worthy of, and most of our subconscious beliefs are programmed by other people in childhood. But here's the kicker, we can reprogram them.

    In today’s episode, Karolina is going to demystify the subconscious mind so you can understand the incredible power of it, and how it's going to change your life.

    We don’t have a perfectly programmed subconscious. And it’s nobody’s fault. You’ll hear about different modalities you can use to override the programming you picked up in childhood (like hypnosis, EFT, and NLP), and how to immerse yourself in environments that can change your identity.

    There’s a lot of science in this episode, shared in an easy to understand format. All of Karolina’s successes as a leader, coach, and author were a result of this reprogramming–and this conversation is jam-packed with fascinating insights that will help you create beliefs that will serve you.

    And if you want to delve deeper into this topic, learn more about the Empowered AF Coach Certification program, which starts March 28th!

  • Have you ever wondered what it’s actually like to be a successful coach and thought leader?

    In this episode, Karolina is pulling back the curtain and demystifying what a typical day in her life looks like.

  • Have you ever felt the universe was trying to tell you something?

    Personally, Karolina has received many signs from the universe that seemed almost magical – particularly regarding her late grandmother and the decision to go alcohol-free. These signs have given her comfort and guidance in the path she’s carved out for herself.

    Four days after this podcast airs is Karolina’s 6-year soberversary, which is also the third anniversary of her grandmother’s passing. To some people, it might seem coincidental that these events occurred on the same date, but she finds meaning in this.

    What will the universal signs be for you? How do you know you’re experiencing them? And how can you be open to receiving them? In this episode, Karolina shares insight about the signs the universe has sent her, with the hope that you will find guidance as you embark on your own path.

In this episode, she talks about how retreats can change your life, and about the profound impacts they’ve had on her own, providing insight on all things ranging from alcohol to reflections on motherhood.

    In our lives, we’re so distracted, running from one thing to the next, and it’s almost impossible to just unplug for a week. Retreats are so sacred. Between embodiment workshops, hiking, and daily yoga sessions, they get you out of your comfort zone, surrounded by incredible, like-minded women, and force you to be intentional about listening to your highest self.

    There are still a few spots left in the upcoming Euphoric Costa Rica Retreat, which is all about deepening your bigger purpose so you can be the most empowered version of yourself in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Join Karolina in April and you will return home braver and empowered with a new group of women cheering you on, saying girl – you are meant to do this!

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    Karolina’s experience attending retreats and the unexpected “aha” moments they gave her about her own life The difference between going on a retreat vs. practicing some of these “retreat” exercises at home or going on a vacation Getting outside your comfort zone and disconnecting from your normal routine, and the deep levels of friendship that can form among other retreat members A detailed look at the alcohol-free Euphoric Costa Rica Retreat for women this April, and how it’ll help you deepen your bigger purpose (plus, it’s the only Euphoric retreat in 2024!) Wealth embodiment, attracting goodness in your life, and looking at 2024 not as the time to “tighten the ship,” but to take on your new, more empowered identity

  • Get ready for life-changing advice on how to own your identity, shift your beliefs, stand up for your vision, and set boundaries.

    Rachel Luna is an international speaker, certified master neuroscience coach to 6- and 7-figure earning entrepreneurs, and author of Permission to Offend, as seen on The Today Show. The cancer survivor and former marine is also the host of the Permission to Offend podcast and was named by Forbes as one of the 11 most inspiring female entrepreneurs to follow on Instagram.

    In this episode, Rachel takes us through her spiritual journey and her unconventional path to going alcohol-free. You also won’t want to miss her life-changing journaling framework (this part is gold!), one of the many exercises featured in her book that will empower you to dream bigger.

    You’ll also hear how she handles failures, her advice for success and fulfillment, and the importance of shifting into a state of gratitude to activate your body’s energy. There are so many gems in this episode and Karolina has learned so much from Rachel. We can’t wait for you to tune in!

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    Rachel’s history with alcohol and how she’d use it as a numbing agent to the fact that she always felt she was “too much” – but also never enough The impact being alcohol-free has made in both her success and her connection to her spiritual life Not being defined by success or shortcomings – rather, by the way you treat people and the work you leave behind Journaling to manifest using neuroscience-backed methods and scripting your desires in detail as though they have already happened Giving space for negative emotions so you can then clear the space to create energy to go after your dreams The importance of faith when it comes to continuing, even when things don’t work, and the difference this made in Rachel’s life when it came to trusting that “soft nudge”

  • Today we’re going back to the basics on how to change your relationship with alcohol, and it starts with listening to your intuition.

    With Dry January and Dry Bootcamp approaching, it’s the perfect time to present an in-depth overview of how to change your drinking and amp up the fun, pleasure, and joy in your life. This episode is for you whether you’re early in your alcohol-free journey, or are reevaluating the role of alcohol in your life.

    Karolina talks about the conditioning we receive about alcohol and debunks some of its “positive” attributes. The thing to remember is that it’s not the DRINK you want. What you actually want is the FEELING you believe a drink will give you.

    IN THIS EPISODE:

  • As 2023 draws to a close, it’s the perfect time of year for reinvention - to shed old identities and limiting beliefs to create a bold new vision for yourself in 2024 - spiritually, physically, emotionally, and intellectually.

    Whether you dream of becoming a morning person, an author, a parent, or to build a successful business without alcohol, these are all critical shifts in your identity and this episode will inspire you to make it happen!

    Karolina shares an inside peek into the Robert Dilts Pyramid, which is a fascinating model for creating transformation and change in your life. Not surprisingly, the factors that are most impactful (vision, identity, and beliefs) all have to do with your mindset.

    We will never find our self-worth just in accomplishing goals alone. The point of a goal is to become the version of yourself that can achieve that goal.

    Check out our show notes for tips on how to make your alcohol-free holidays AMAZING so you can fully embrace your potential in the new year and join Karolina on January 9th for Dry Bootcamp!

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    All about the Robert Dilts Pyramid and how to use it to inspire radical reinvention in our lives by shaping our vision, identity, and beliefs Why it’s okay for our visions to feel a little delusional (we owe it to our ancestors who grew up with survival mechanisms and didn’t have the same means as us) How to carry the identity of someone you want to be, even if it’s not yours yet (for example, an author or a business owner) Finding fulfillment by connecting with something bigger than you, and what brings us purpose, from personal growth to helping others Karolina’s experience of shifting her identity from “drinker” to “non-drinker”

  • This episode is a heart-to-heart for big dreamers and goal-setters. Beautiful, your dreams are still worth it, even if you didn’t achieve them in the timeframe you expected. What were your goals for 2023? Did you meet them?

    Sometimes we overestimate what we can do in a year, but we can also underestimate how long a goal will actually take.

    Today’s empowering conversation with Karolina will fuel you to create more space and inspiration for your goals as you move into the new year. We cover managing expectations, “timeline goals”, celebrating our wins along the way, and why we need to be unrealistic about our dreams sometimes!

    You’ll also hear a few examples of how Karolina processes goals not met in her own life and uses setbacks as stepping stones for future success.

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    Looking at the effort BEHIND the goal: what were the books read? The programs joined? Did you do anything differently this year? How to use lessons from the previous year to do things differently in the next – for example, getting more support or creating more time for a goal How we often underestimate how long things take (our goals are not defined by how quickly we achieve them!) and why sometimes, it’s actually better when things take longer Removing the attachment of self-worth to the outcome and focusing instead on what we did and the work we put in The importance of ENJOYING ourselves as we work toward our goal, because happiness is not getting to the goal – it’s who we grow into during the process!
