Hey you guys :) happy Thursday! I give you guys a recap of my journey and everything that I have experienced in life that has led me to such a deep appreciation and gratitude towards all of these tough times and beautiful moments. So much to learn so much to grow through and so much to continue to love. Enjoy :-)
Hey you guys :) today's episode I bring on one of my best friends Kait (owner of The Powers of Healing) and we talk all about finding your balance. It is so important not only as a healer, but as a human, to find balance in everything we do. It is vital to our health. Kait is the balance queen both literally and figuratively. Whether she's frolicking in the woods or upside down, she finds balance every day. Hope you guys enjoy :)
hey guys! today's episode my fiance Jack comes on and we talk all about finding happiness within in order to find happiness in a relationship. This is something that needs to be worked on consistently every single day. Ups and downs are natural and going to happen but learning to sit with this and be ok with situations within yourself first and always is the most important part. Enjoy :)
Hey you guys! Welcome back to Blissful Love :) Today's episode I talk all about the morning routine I have been doing the past week and a half. I started my sacred start with my mentor Renee owner of The Goddess Vault, and since then I have been manifesting everything I have wanted. It is unbelievable how setting intentions, speaking your dreams and goals out loud, sticking to a routine, being consistent, and being open to receive changes your life. Listen to all the ins and outs of this practice I have been incorporating and what I have ALREADY manifested successfully. Also check out my youtube channel if you'd like to watch episodes and weekly life vlogs. Love you guys :)
Hey guys!!! Today's episode is soooo fun! I had Grace Gagnon on the show today. For those of you who don't know Grace, she is from Boston MA and one day I was watching Good Morning America and her face popped up. She was telling her story about the holiday swap she was going on. She posted a tik tok one night asking if anyone would be interested in internationally swapping apartments with her for a few weeks and overnight it went viral. Grace is a beautiful soul, so insightful and really in tune with how this experience made her grow and evolve as a human. Enjoy :)
Happiness. Ahhh. Something we all want more of and seem to forget that we all hold the power to feel this within. No external things are going to create this sense of fulfillment and joy for us. We have the power to create a life full of love and happiness while still experiencing difficulties and hardships. Why not both?
Hey you guys welcome back to another episode of Blissful Love with Devin McMahon. So pumped up to officially announce Blissful Love's youtube channel!!!!! Every episode will not be video recorded and uploaded each week for you guys to have the chance to also watch it instead of just listen! Hope you guys enjoy this weeks episode all about negative self talk and staying consistent with things that you're passionate about in your life :)
Hey you guys! It's been two weeks without you, I have most definitely missed you. Reflecting these past two weeks while having covid made me excited to make a list of things I am leaving behind going into the new year. A HUGE shift in perspective. I am so excited for everything that is coming for all of us this year. Enjoy :)
Happy Saturday everyone :) This week's episode is all about reacting vs. responding. When we begin to work with the unconscious and conscious minds together, we become more aligned with ourselves and our true colors fly. Stepping back and taking an extra second in every and all conversations and situations allows us the ability to grow and change. We become better people. I have been learning so much about this and how it aligns with your values through my job and our book club read this month A Liberated Mind. Enjoy :)
The holidays and seasons changing can be really difficult for many people. People who are sensitive to energy feel this extremely heavy. I know that I feel it - and many of my friends and family do too so you are not alone. Today's episode I dive into this on a deeper level and discuss some things you can do to help yourself get through this season and enjoy it :) Love you all
Happy Friday everyone! Bringing this episode to you guys a day late - but hope everyone had a beautiful holiday and spent some time with friends, family and loved ones. Today's episode I bring on Andrew, the owner and founder of Cacoa King. Andrew and I talk about a lot of things, but the main theme today is spiritual work burnout. We talk about how the same routine, and forcing ourselves to do things that pertain to our growth can cause burnout and the best way to remain grateful and avoid that burnout as much as possible.

Hey you guys happy Thursday!!!! Today's episode Jack comes on and chats with me about burnout - specifically in the work place. I've covered this topic before but I feel like it's so important to continue to shed light on especially this time of year before the holidays. Next week I will be doing a part two of burnout and bringing on Andrew, owner and founder of Cacao King. Love you all :)
What is up you guys? Today's episode I dive pretty deep into the behavior and science behind compassionate listening and why it's important to practice. This brings me into the topic of increasing awareness which then heightens your intuition. Being an energy healer heightens and strengthens all of these but those aren't the only effects on the healer. I touch on the effects that energy healing has on the healer as well and to make sure to put yourself first always! Enjoy :)
Welcome BACK loves!!!!! Season 3 here we are. I am pumped. I'm your host, Dev McMahon and I am SO excited to be back and recording for you guys. It has been a crazy season of change and I am really excited for what is in store. Today's episode is short and sweet lets ease our way back into this ;) No but seriously I am so jazzed for this season and to be back. Get ready for a lot of adventure and a whole lot of love.
Happy Thursday!!!! Rach gives us a huge life update and talks all about what's been going on for her in her life and her most recent changes. With big life changes comes so much beauty and growth - a deeper understanding of ourselves and our wants and needs. A very vulnerable episode that we can all learn from and relate to. We love you guys :)
Today's episode Dev is solo talking about her favorite stuff - anything and all things psychoanalytic lol. Dev got her masters degree in applied behavior analysis so analyzing human behavior is quite literally her nerdy thing. Dev talks a lot about how she got stuck in a spiritual routine of only doing that sort of work and wouldn't allow herself to do other things and how it hindered her happiness and why this may happen. We love you guys:)
Hey guys we're back - sorry the delay on this week's episode there were lots of technical difficulties with our platform. We talk all about Dev's trip out west road tripping around the national parks in Utah - such a spiritual and beautiful place for her so it was fun to chat about it. Getting away from routines can be really hard and we dive into why it's so important to do so! We love you guys :)
Hey you guys happy Thursday! Today's episode is about our first ever BLISS retreat that we had on 8/28/21. We had the most blissful and magical day and couldn't have done it without all the beautiful women who came and our beautiful healer friends Vic and Kait that came to help us. We are so excited for all the future healing events :)
Hey guys whats up happy Thursday. We do a thorough catch up with you guys today talking all about what we've been up to physically and mentally and what's to come. We talk a lot about how we stay grounded while being the busiest humans ever too! Enjoy :)
Happy Thursday guys!!! We brought on our friend Fran - she's the best you guys will love her! We chatted about lots of different things - yoga teacher training, cannabis and how it has effected our lives and lots more!
Hey guys happy Thursday!!!! Today we talk all about PTG and what it means to us - how we feel connected to our traumas in a way that has allowed us to grow and change. We are so grateful for every single one of you - enjoy :)
Thank you guys for all your questions you submitted on our page - we love hearing from you and answering lots of questions about our opinions, what we're going through, how we've gotten here and where we plan to go. Hope you guys enjoy this episode! We love you :)
AHHHH the topic we have all been waiting for. A tough one for Dev, but with lots of hard work and inspiration from Rach, she's getting there. We both dive into the journey we have been on with our body image and what we feel and think about it currently. This is something that we will always have to be mindful of and work on - and that's ok! We love you guys :)
SOOOO this is a HOT topic in the social media world these days so giving you our take on it was necessary. We discuss the ways you can be positive while also letting yourself feel the funk and going through real life emotions. We also talk a lot about why positivity can be toxic to those around in you in certain situations and instead how to validate other's feelings and emotions. Enjoy :)
This week Rachael and her mom dive into their spiritual journey's and how their personal growth has improved their relationship. We hope that this episode inspires you to hold your loved ones close and to share your journey's with each other. We are always growing, transforming, and healing - family and love makes it all that much better.
GUYS, the episode you've all been waiting for is finally here. Dev sat down with Kait Powers (I know crazy that is her last name) and we chatted all about how she got into Bowen, what it's all about and how she's doing on her spiritual journey and what it has looked like for her so far. Kait is an amazing human that we are so lucky to call our friend. We HIGHLY suggest getting bowen done from Kait! Follow her and send her a DM if you're interestd: @thepowersofbowen
Inner growth is a constant effort. It is something we will work on for as long as we live. It can be a lot of re-training our brains to stop doing certain behavior patterns that no longer serve us and are no longer productive for our growth. Enjoy this episode guys - we love you :)
HAPPY THURSDAY!!!! Today's episode we give you the real hard truth on things to avoid and thought patterns to change in order to grow inward and outward. We will be doing a part 2 of this episode because there is truly just so much to it. Always remember to slow down, enjoy the journey and work hard to be the best version of you. We love you guys :)
This week Rach is joined by Kat & Eli to kick off Pride Month! We chat about our hopes for this years Pride Month and what we can do as a community to show our love and support! Ending the episode with a little game to hopefully bring some laughter to your day! Happy Pride everyone!! Get out there and spread the love!!
Today Dev brings her boyfriend Jack on the show. Jack and Dev met in college as freshman and kept a friendship until their junior year when they decided to give dating a shot LOL! The rest is history. No but seriously - Jack talks all about what it's been like as a boyfriend to be alongside Dev on her inner growth, spiritual, holistic and all around life journey. Diving into your spirituality and doing that inner work is really difficult so when we surround ourselves with people that do not wholeheartedly support us, the journey seems unbearable at times. Find the ones that raise you up and make sure you keep 'em around :) We love you guys!
Today's episode is a little sit down with Eli, talking about his spiritual journey thus far, different blocks he's run into along the way and his experience with Rach during her master reiki attunement! We love having Eli on Blissful Love and are going to make it a monthly routine. Enjoy this fun and random episode - we all deserve a breath of fresh air and to just shoot the sh** sometimes :) We love you all!!!
Today's episode is all about the energy healing work that we do every day and how it has DRASTICALLY effected our mental health in the best way possible. We run through what a typical day looks like for us and just the small things we do to help ourselves heal and grow from the inside out. Enjoy this episode and as always - we love you all :)
Mental health awareness month is upon us and is very important to us. We catch up with you all on how we are doing with our mental health and give you some insight as to why it isn't something we talk about every episode anymore. Although it is very important, we think it is just as important to not constantly dwell on negative feelings and emotions and instead work hard to shift our perspectives. We love you guys!
Sometimes we fear letting go, but other times we force ourselves to let go of things because we feel like we have to get rid of something in our lives. Be present and enjoy the moment, and if along the way there is something that no longer serves you, let it go!!! We love you guys - happy taurus season :)
Today's episode we bring on lightworker and energy healer Katie Emmitt. We talk about a lot of different things but one thing that stays consistent is talking about how to connect to our intuition and our energies while going down this path of spirituality and using it in our daily lives as energy healers. Katie gives a lot of insight as an energy worker but also as a teacher, as she has students of her own that she helps navigate all of this. Katie is also a psychic medium, teacher, reiki master, artist and beautiful soul. Happy Thursday everyone - we hope you LOVE this episode :) Katie Emmitt's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katiemmitt/ @katiemmitt
The best thing we have done is meet new people, open our minds to new friendships and grow each and every relationship we have in new ways. We both are firm believers in be-friending everyone we meet. Every person you encounter has something new to offer the universe. We love to spread our love and kindness in every friendship, every co-worker and everyone that is in our lives. Friendships in your 20's are truly beautiful. We are so thankful for everyone in our lives and especially each other. We love you guys so much :)

You guys hear us talk all the time about empathy and what it's like to live being an empath so we decided to dedicate an entire episode to it. One thing to know is that there is a difference between being an HSP (highly sensitive person) and an empath, which we talk all about. This episode is deep, informative and vulnerable!

Hey guys! Today's episode is all about finding our true purpose. Finding that light inside of us that feels so hot, so fiery, that we just need to chase it and follow it wherever it goes. THAT is your dharma. It can be painful. It can be confusing. It can be scary as hell, but in the end it is beautiful and amazing. I think we can both agree that we are finding our dharma one step at a time, day by day. We have agreed that this may change through the years and that's exactly what makes it beautiful because we will be doing exactly what we feel called to do when we feel called to do it. We love you guys! Dharma Quiz: https://www.dharmaarchetypequiz.com/?utm_source=WordPress&utm_medium=Instagram&utm_campaign=Discover%20Your%20Dharma
Hi you guys!!! Today's episode is all about the discomfort we experience when we really get to know our true beings. This can be viewed many ways. At surface level it can be seen as anxiety, but in a beautiful perspective, it can be seen as an intimate understanding of ourselves. There are so many levels of discomfort that come with shedding the layers and learning more about your inner being and strengthening your inner being. We also are bringing back our guided meditations at the end of our episodes so stay tuned for that at the end! If you are interested in joining Devin for a free guided meditation on Zoom every Sunday at 7 pm EST starting 2/28, send us a message so we can get you the link (we also put it in our bio).

So what do you know about emotional responding? Are you finding yourself being passive or a reactive person? We float around and tend to fit into all the categories of emotional responding. There are four types, listen to today's episode to learn more about them and become more aware of where we lie and how we can all strengthen our responding. We love you guys :)
Today's episode we have a very special guest, Eli (Rachael's younger brother)! Eli is a transgender male and tells his inspiring and brave story diving into the emotional and physical pain that he endured, but also talks on how supportive and loving his friends and family were. We recognize that coming out as transgender is not always easy and can be a long and difficult path, and although Eli did have a great support system, he shares his difficulties through his journey. I hope that you guys all learn something from this episode and please share this with anyone you may know who is struggling in their own transition. We love you guys :)

Enjoy :)
