Mostly Aligned
Mostly Aligned is my cozy, slightly chaotic corner where we figure life out… mostly.
I’m Lola — herbal tea alchemist, story-weaver, and someone learning to fully trust the Universe even when life feels messy. Here, I share my journey of starting over, navigating life’s twists and turns, and slowly finding my way back to myself — one messy, meaningful step at a time.
The only thing you can expect here is literally the unexpected: intuitive nudges, energetic healing, grounding rituals, rest, reflection, momentum, full-circle moments, and the occasional cosmic detour. This is a space for noticing the small shifts, celebrating the wins, and learning that action doesn’t always have to be loud to matter.
No perfection here — just curiosity, presence, and the reminder that being mostly aligned is more than enough. Grab your favorite bevy, settle in, and let’s begin

EP08: Thanksgiving Magic: Healing, Gratitude, and Energetic Protection
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, we dive into the energy of gratitude, family traditions, healing, and the kind of holiday magic that hits a little deeper this year.
Strap in for my rant about the world skipping straight from Halloween to Christmas, reminisce about Thanksgiving Eve, and reflect on the sweet, chaotic, spirit-filled moments that make it on the gratitude list for this year.
Then we switch gears and get into the Mostly Aligned approved Guide to Surviving Thanksgiving Dinner — the healed-era edition. From energetic boundaries to escape plans to carrying crystals like emotional support snacks, let's get into how to stay grounded, peaceful, and in your power when dinner gets… interesting.
So grab your favorite bevy, settle in, and let’s begin!
PS: As promised here is the list
Thanksgiving Dinner Survival List: Mostly Aligned Edition
- Set your intention/energetic boundaries before the turkey hits the table.
- Know your family and based on that pick your seat. (if possible).
