Have you ever known deep down that something wasn't right for you, but spent days, weeks, or even years second-guessing that initial feeling? You're not alone.

In this revealing solo episode, I share a recent experience where I nearly ignored my intuition about a client partnership that didn't feel aligned. Despite that initial "something's off" sensation, I found myself seeking external validation, gathering opinions, and overthinking—only to eventually circle back to what my inner wisdom had been telling me all along.

This personal story opens the door to exploring why trusting ourselves can be so challenging. From the people-pleasing tendencies that make us prioritize others' approval over our own needs, to the constant barrage of external influences that drown out our inner voice, I break down the major barriers that keep us second-guessing our intuitive hits.

I offer practical strategies for strengthening your self-trust muscle, including connecting to past decisions where your yes was clear, identifying your unique intuitive signals, and asking the powerful question, "What would it look like if I pleased myself first?" These tools help close the gap between that first intuitive nudge and taking aligned action.

The journey to trusting yourself is gradual—where once it took years to honor your intuition, perhaps now it takes days or hours. Give yourself grace in this process while celebrating each step toward deeper self-connection. Your inner wisdom is always working for you; the more you tune in and honor it, the louder and clearer it becomes.

What decision are you currently sitting with? Try implementing these tools and notice how much simpler life becomes when you trust what you already know.

Discover the transformative power of your voice as a healing instrument in this fascinating conversation with holistic voice coach and sound therapist Charlene Huskinson. We explore how vocalization directly stimulates the vagus nerve, creating a regulated nervous system state where profound healing can occur naturally.

Charlene shares her personal journey from rock band performer to sound healer, revealing how reconnecting with her authentic voice led to freedom from chronic pain. "Your voice is connected to your vagus nerve, which regulates your nervous system," she explains. "The more we're in that state, the more our body can heal, because our body wants to heal. We just need to put it in the right environment."

Most of us carry deep conditioning around suppressing our voices – from being shushed as children to feeling judgment about how we sound. These patterns don't just affect our singing; they impact our ability to express our authentic selves in all areas of life. Through practices like toning (making vowel sounds) and playful vocal exploration, we can begin releasing these blocks while producing oxytocin and other beneficial neurochemicals.

Perhaps most fascinating is how our pre-verbal sounds – the "hmm" of consideration or enthusiastic "oh!" of excitement – can reconnect us with our intuitive knowing. By paying attention to these natural vocalizations, we develop stronger discernment between authentic desires and conditioned responses. Whether you're curious about sound healing or simply want to feel more comfortable using your voice, this episode offers practical starting points and powerful insights into this ancient healing modality.

Money isn't just currency—it's energy, freedom, and a potential source of profound healing in our lives. In this deeply personal and revealing conversation, finance coach Lina Rimasauskiene shares her remarkable journey from childhood poverty to financial freedom, demonstrating how our relationship with money directly reflects our relationship with ourselves.

The conversation challenges common misconceptions about wealth creation by distinguishing between earning money and the crucial skill of managing it effectively. Lina expertly explains why many entrepreneurs and individuals remain stuck in financial scarcity despite working hard—they haven't developed systems to allocate resources purposefully in alignment with their values and long-term vision.

Rather than viewing saving as deprivation, she reframes it as purposeful contribution toward meaningful goals.

What makes this episode particularly powerful is how it addresses the emotional and psychological dimensions of our financial challenges. Lina shares transformative exercises, including her "100 possibilities" technique that helps expand limited thinking about money's potential in your life.

She also discusses why many people engage in "shelf development" rather than implementing financial knowledge, collecting books and courses without making actual changes.

Whether you're struggling with money management, hoping to heal your relationship with finances, or simply wanting to develop greater financial independence, this episode provides both practical wisdom and mindset shifts to transform your approach.

As Lina beautifully states: "Your self-worth is not determined by your bank balance, but your bank balance shows your self-worth." Ready to experience the healing power of financial freedom? This conversation is your starting point.

In this conversation, Monika Jiang, a German-Chinese community builder, writer and facilitator, explores the profound distinction between loneliness and "oneliness" - a historical term predating our modern understanding of isolation. Through her work building communities and facilitating gatherings, Monika illuminates how our current societal structures have led to increased disconnection, despite being more technically "connected" than ever before.

The discussion delves into how modern life, particularly in Western cultures, has created an environment where authentic connection has become increasingly rare. Monika shares her journey of discovering how loneliness isn't merely a personal challenge but a societal issue that requires collective healing. She emphasizes that true connection often requires stepping away from the performative aspects of social media and professional life to embrace more vulnerable, authentic interactions.

Throughout the conversation, Monika explains her approach to community building and healing through structured gatherings that combine theoretical understanding with practical, embodied experiences. She highlights the importance of creating safe spaces where people can explore connection through various modalities, including movement, active listening, and conscious touch, while maintaining a balance between addressing deep topics and maintaining a sense of lightness and play
