We discussed the importance of self-love, breaking free from societal expectations, and the power of community support. The conversation emphasizes the significance of trusting the process of change and the necessity of showing up for oneself in the journey of life.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton and I explore the evolving definition of success, particularly in the context of education and parenting. We discuss the societal pressures surrounding college education and the traditional markers of success, such as wealth and status. Through personal anecdotes, we highlight the importance of kindness, personal growth, and the need to redefine success beyond material achievements. The conversation emphasizes the value of being present and embracing new paths, especially for the younger generation navigating their futures. 

 We go on to discuss the importance of personal growth, authenticity, and the impact of one's actions on others. The discussion highlights the significance of modeling success for future generations and the role of compassion and self-reflection in achieving a fulfilling life. Ultimately, we advocate for a redefined understanding of success that prioritizes emotional well-being and genuine connections over superficial achievements.

In this solo podcast episode, I talked all about the importance of feeling emotions fully as a means of healing and personal growth. I discussed the societal pressures that discourage emotional expression and offer practical advice on how to check in with yourself through body scans and self-reflection. 

I also explore the balance between masculine and feminine energies, the process of feeling emotions, and the significance of collecting the 'medicine' that comes from these experiences. I also encourage listeners to embrace all emotions, view them as opportunities for healing, and ultimately awaken to a more vibrant life. Happy listening!

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton joined me once again to record our second episode in a series. We are breaking down old programming beliefs and finding ways to replace them with new ideas.

Last week's episode had to do with the school system. This week, however, we delved into the misconceptions surrounding parenting and the belief systems that have been passed down through generations. We discussed the importance of early childhood development, the challenges of discipline, and the significance of understanding emotions and communication in parenting. 

Ashley and I go kinda deep into the idea that just because the child is younger in years doesn't mean they don't understand our energy as adults. If we can take an extra minute to be intentional, meltdowns and arguments can be headed off.

Check out this episode for an insightful conversation to heal yourself and then also your connection with any child in your life.

This episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast was an interesting one. I had my friend Ashley Hamilton (a proud parent of twin three-year-olds) again. We have been talking privately for a while about programming we were 'sold' surrounding parenting as well as the education system. We finally felt like it was time to take it to the podcast. We thought, that if we felt this way, there must be others who do as well. 

Today's episode is the first episode in a series. We covered what we believe to be parts of education that are broken and then ideas to possibly fix them. We fully realize that we are just two opinions out of the many pertaining to the education system, but if we don't start having the hard discussions then how can any real change ever happen?

If you enjoy our discussion stay tuned for more in the series. We are looking to find all the holes in societal beliefs that might not be sitting well with many of you. Let us know if you agree:)

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I talked with a very special guest, Susie Miller. She is an integration specialist, author, and so much more. Susie discusses her transformative experiences with children diagnosed with autism, particularly focusing on the concept of light bodies and telepathy. 

The conversation explores the integration of these light bodies with physical bodies, the unique perspectives of nonverbal children, and the impact of trauma on children's ability to communicate. 

Susie talks about some specific things that parents can do to help their children feel more regulated and calm. A huge part for children to feel regulated is having the parents do healing work on themselves. Our children are mirroring back to us where we are out of balance.

This conversation was a game changer. Our biggest teachers in life are children and it's beautiful to see how healing can be effective for all members of a family.

This week's podcast is Part 2 of last week's podcast

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I had the chance to talk with my good friends, Erica Cordeiro and Kim Reed, about the importance of open conversations, building community, and the challenges of making friends as adults. We explore the desire for deeper connections, the exhaustion of surface-level interactions, and the significance of receiving compliments and acknowledging self-worth. 

Our trio also reflects on personal growth journeys and how focusing on self-work has led us to find our community. We also touch on the impact of the 'New Earth' on personal evolution and the changing dynamics of conversations in today's world. We delve into the concept of the 'New Earth' as an evolution of consciousness, emphasizing the shift from rigid thinking to a more feeling-based approach.

This episode was next level for me. Our conversation went from one topic to the next, which felt so seamless and easy. We talked for a LONG TIME so I decided to break it up into two episodes (part two coming next week). I hope you enjoy listening.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I talk all about a conversation I had with my daughter. During this conversation, I slowly started to realize that I have a tangible system I use to help myself and others through our triggers. 

My daughter who is a young teen was telling me about her day in high school and how it is becoming a pattern in her days. I discussed the importance of recognizing triggers, understanding the Hermetic principles, and engaging in inner child work to heal unresolved emotions.

I then emphasized that life is a continuous learning experience, where our external world reflects our internal state. By addressing these patterns and emotions, we can achieve a sense of wholeness and balance in our lives. Listen to this week's episode to hear practical steps to understanding your own hidden triggers.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton and I sat down again to review some results we uncovered from a challenge we came up with two weeks ago. We decided to experiment with being intentional with putting some new subconscious beliefs in our minds. By doing that we were/are hoping to manifest a few different things. 

We discussed our personal experiences with trying to implement new habits, the impact of childhood beliefs on adult behavior, and the challenges of integrating affirmations into our daily lives. The conversation also touches on the influence of social media, the concept of the Mandela Effect, and the importance of self-awareness and healing in personal growth. 

After the recap of our findings and the ways we plan to make adjustments, we then talked a little about my children's class that is coming up. The earlier we start to learn how to override old stories in our subconscious with new and better ones the easier our life will become.

My book: ​The Missing Piece​

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I shared a personal story about a conversation I had with my son regarding the balance of masculine and feminine energies, particularly in the context of youth sports and coaching styles. I didn't know the conversation was going to go in that direction but it did. 

I ended up reflecting on the difference between the two student teaching placements I had when I was a senior in college. After my first placement, I thought I had wasted money and time for four years in college because I couldn't teach the way my placement teacher was teaching. She was very stuck in fear and toxic masculine energy (this was the connection I was making with my son and his coach). It wasn't until I had my second placement that I realized there was a different way of gaining the respect of the students. Not only could this 'new way' be used in teaching, but it could also be used in all aspects of my life. The teacher for my second placement (who is now my sister-in-law) showed me what balanced masculine and feminine energies looked like. 

We are often taught how to grip and "make things happen." I learned many years ago with the guidance of a wonderful mentor that not only is it okay but it's necessary to be vulnerable in front of others. I learned there is always another way to "get what we want." A way that doesn't deplete our energy tanks and keeps us vibing higher so we can radiate more joy into the world. I hope this podcast provides you with a great example of balance and understanding on how there is always another way.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters podcast, Ashley and I delve into the intricate dynamics between the subconscious and conscious mind, exploring how these two aspects of our psyche influence our thoughts, beliefs, and, ultimately, our reality. We discuss the importance of understanding the subconscious mind's role in healing, manifestation, and the impact of early programming from parents.

In the second half of the podcast we switched gears to talk about an experiement we wanted to try...a challenge if you will. Ashley and I are setting up a new story in our subconscious mind that is positive and setting us up for a better life. Ashley's new story is that her body is healthy. She has suffered from various health issues since she was a teen. I would like to create a story in my subconscious that whole heartedly KNOWS that all aspects of myself are now integrated. The shadow sides, the light sides, and everything in between so I can radiate my brightest life force energy.

If you are feeling called to join us on this challenge here are the criteria we have come up with:

Set up at least 7 alarms to go off on your phone throughout your day. This is used to be a pattern disruption through your day to help you come back to the conscious moment and repeat your new mantra.

Use your voice memos app and record about a 15 minute message repeating your new mantra. I created a few and just repeated them over and over. Listen to the 15 minute recording every night after you have wound down and are about to go to sleep. You want to get to the Theta brainwave which is how you create new stories in the subconscious mind.

We also decided to limit our social media intake and anything else that might be lower vibrational. We want to keep our frequency up as much as we can control during this challenge. We plan to create a follow up podcast in a couple weeks but know we might need to keep it going longer. To be continued...

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I discuss the Hermetic Principles and their application in a new course designed for children aged 7 to 12 I will be teaching at the end of February. I came home from my niece's basketball game one day and thought to myself that children need more explanation of well-being. They need real examples of how when life gets uncomfortable that it's okay and how to recognize all the new ways they are being stretched and growing.

I also emphasize the importance of teaching emotional intelligence and the understanding of universal laws to help children navigate their feelings and experiences. Although I am talking about this children's course, it's still very benefical for the listener to hear this episode as I explain the Hermetic Principles in detail. This was such a fun episode to create.

We also touch on the significance of affirmations, the power of compliments, and the journey of self-discovery as we set our intentions for 2025.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I explore the concept of soul purpose and the journey of self-discovery, which emphasizes that finding one's purpose is not a linear path but rather a collection of experiences that shape who we are. I go on to talk about my journey, reflecting on my career in education and the lessons learned along the way. I encourage the listeners to embrace their current situations, find joy in small moments, and recognize that purpose can manifest in various forms beyond just career choices. Ultimately, I advocate for self-compassion and the importance of reflecting on our experiences to understand our unique paths.

Takeaways

Everyone has a soul purpose, but it's not just one thing.

The journey of finding purpose is more important than the destination.

Your experiences build upon each other to shape your purpose.

It's okay to not have everything figured out at a young age.

Purpose can be found in everyday moments of joy and love.

We discuss the importance of authenticity, the power of affirmations, and the challenges of navigating old beliefs and emotions. The conversation emphasizes the duality of life, the balance between fear and faith, and the significance of being present in one's journey. Ultimately, we aim to demystify spiritual awakening, presenting it as a gradual process of self-discovery and awareness.

We discuss how recognizing beauty in every day life can signify a deeper connection to oneself and the world. The conversation highlights the process of decalcifying the heart chakra, allowing individuals to feel emotions more deeply and authentically. We also stress the significance of being open about one's spiritual journey and finding a supportive community to share experiences with, ultimately encouraging listeners to embrace their unique selves and seek connection with others.

Fear often prevents us from experiencing joy and growth.

Surrendering to faith can lead to a more fulfilling life.

Spiritual awakening can be subtle and gradual, not always dramatic. Awakening begins with recognizing beauty in everyday life.

Being open about your spiritual journey encourages others to do the same.
