The SoulFire Sessions

Episode 5: Grounding, Gratitude & Soul Guidance

Alex Widener & Mariah Newman Season 1 Episode 5

In this episode of The SoulFire Sessions, hosts Alex and Mariah welcome Andrea—a gifted energy channeler, sound healer, yoga and meditation teacher—who helps people reconnect with their soul, calm their nervous systems, and step back into alignment with who they really are.

Andrea opens the conversation by leading us through a short, grounding breathwork practice, showing just how powerful two minutes of presence can be. She shares accessible tools anyone can use—breathwork, gratitude, grounding, and meditation (in many forms)—to shift from stress and disconnection to calm and clarity.

We also dive into:

1) The difference between the voice of the soul and the voice of the ego—and how to tell them apart.
2) Why grounding practices like bare feet on the grass or morning sun are more science than “woo woo.”
3) How Andrea followed intuition from teaching high school to building a soul-led business in energy and transformational coaching.
4) Why reconnecting to curiosity, creativity, and play is central to remembering who we truly are.

Andrea’s story is a beautiful reminder that when we follow those nudges of intuition and passion, life unfolds with more peace, purpose, and possibility.
