A Woman in Her Authentic Nature: Making Space in Your Life
Tuesday Feb 11, 2025
Tuesday Feb 11, 2025
Right now, if you are like most women, you are likely looking to find yourself through the success and accomplishments of the outside world: climbing that never-ending staircase while also looking for the door that will finally lead you to a feeling of true worthiness and love. You may be in a constant state of evaluating your traits based on a comparison made to the outside world. When you feel this lack within – and believe that a relationship, new home, better body, travel, a baby, or career will fulfill you – you are out of your nature as a woman. The beliefs that society has created (and that you believe) around success, power, and worth have made you act like a man. This is the true cause of your unease: you are not being authentic to your nature.
Underneath all this searching for fulfillment, which is based on challenge and competition, you are just looking to return to your femininity. In this podcast I will show you what it means to return to your original nature as a woman and you will see all the outside identities you must lose to get there.

Let the Universe Guide You: How to Manifest with Tammy Mastroberte
Friday Mar 08, 2024
Friday Mar 08, 2024
My guest today, Tammy Mastroberte, is the bestselling and award-winning author of “The Universe is Talking to You: Tap Into Signs & Synchronicity to Reveal Magical Moments Every Day,” and her newest book “The Higher Help Method: Stop Trying to Manifest and Let the Universe Guide You.”
Brought up in the Catholic faith, Tammy’s life changed dramatically at the age of 22 when her mother died suddenly of a brain aneurysm three days after Christmas in 1999.
This sparked a new spiritual journey for her as she searched for meaning to life’s big questions — What happens when we die? What is the purpose of life? How can I find more meaning? To her surprise, it was her mother — through various mediums and too many signs from the other side to count — who helped her find many of the answers she was seeking.
Today, Tammy’s work focuses on using simple spiritual tools to tap into what she calls “the higher helpline of the Universe” to easily create positive changes in every area of life. Through online classes, her Higher Helpline membership program, live in-person workshops and speaking events, Tammy’s shares how to partner and communicate with the Universe to live a life with more ease and joy.

Tuesday Dec 19, 2023
Tuesday Dec 19, 2023
"A call to action for women who dream of reuniting with their unique and independent nature. Within every woman lies a powerful force. Yet, somewhere along the line, the burdens of responsibility and desire to nurture the ones they love cause that fire to dim, and they lose their sense of self. The Vital Spark brings women on an immersive journey that reunites them with their innate humor, cunning, and assertiveness."- Lisa
Lisa is an author, podcaster, and certified Jungian analyst. She is the author of two books published by Sounds True, Motherhood: Facing and Finding Yourself, and The Vital Spark: Reclaim Your Outlaw Energies and Find Your Feminine Fire.

Ditch Exhaustion and Embrace Flow with Sarah Starrs
Tuesday Dec 12, 2023
Tuesday Dec 12, 2023
My guest today Sarah Starrs is a menstrual cycle coach. This is what she has to say about tracking your cycle..
People work with me because they’re feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and like there’s never enough time. From the outside, you have an arguably awesome life (and there’s so much you love about your life!). But on the inside, you’re drowning under the weight of so much pressure. Because this awesome life? It requires you to be “on” all. the. time. And that’s beyond exhausting.
My approach isn’t about doing more or even finding the perfect “productivity hack.” This is about meaningfully reorienting your life so that you have access to more energy, a deep connection your intuition. and a natural sense of “flow” that permeates your life.
I work with parents who have periods and are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and like there’s never enough time.
Through 1:1 coaching, workshops, and online courses I help you feel more energetic, intuitive, and confident that the work you’re doing in the world matters.
