Live On Purpose

I am so thrilled to introduce you to Rachel Nichols, a hormone specialist, transformational coach, and certified trauma informed hypnotherapist. She helps women heal symptoms of hormonal imbalance such as acne, PMS, endometriosis, PCOS, you name it — with a root cause approach that lasts. "She knows. Trust your body." We chatted about physical symptoms of hormonal imbalance like cystic acne and physical actions you can take to heal yourself like castor oil packs, but we also dove deep into the emotional root causes and how to support yourself on a deeper level with hard-to-process emotions like anger. She also shared her top 4 tips every woman NEEDS to know. #4 surprised me! I highly recommend Rachel's Instagram page as a gorgeous resource to utilize in your journey, https://www.instagram.com/restoring.eve/ She also has a brand new coaching program that is an INCREDIBLY valuable resource.

I love chatting with interesting people about being well. It's one of my favourite things and one of the reasons why this podcast exists! Today I got to have a conversation alllllll about relaxation and sound healing, two things I feel we could all use a little (lot) more of! I chatted with Craig Goldberg, a Relaxation Expert and Technologist on a quest to help humanity achieve a deeper sense of inner calmness through the use of sound and vibration technology. He is a Vibroacoustic Therapy Practitioner, his work is backed by 40+ years of research showing the many benefits of this type of therapy. He is also a patented inventor, constantly exploring new ways to use sound and vibration to help people reduce stress and anxiety, heal, and transform their lives for the better. Craig is passionate about his work and truly believes in its ability to provide a path toward a more peaceful and fulfilling life. We chatted about vibroacoustic therapy (and what it entails), removing toxin load for deeper healing, frequency healing, how to use technology for relaxation and more.

She is a WEALTH of knowledge and she does not gatekeep. Her instagram and tiktok feed are full of incredible tips, recipes and educational content to help every woman live better and experience easier cycles.

This conversation is SO IMPORTANT, especially if you're a woman. I LOVE chatting with empowered women about empowering topics like hormones, stress, blood sugar imbalances, burnout, hustle culture and autoimmune disorders. "But Marie," you may be thinking, "those don't feel like very empowered topics." Au contraire, mon ami. It is through living the seasons of each of these mentioned topics that both myself and today's guest were able to get to a place of healing and thriving. "I now view my body as this incredible vessel that I am here to take care of." Amy Kapeller is a Certified Functional Nutritionist and your high vibe guide to taking control of your hormones and falling in love with your body. She is passionate about all things holistic women's health and uses a root cause approach to help stressed out women increase energy, balance moods, ditch anxiety, optimize hormones, and live life on the same team as their own bodies again.

I LOVED today's conversation. Holly Duckworth is the real deal. A psychotherapist with a PhD in psychology, an MS in management, and a BS in mechanical engineering, She is also a certified Level 3 (top level) Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT®) Practitioner. Trained by Dolores Cannon, she has practiced QHHT® for over 9 years. This woman is TUNED IN to the way our minds work. It was an honour to have a conversation with her. A few more interesting tid bits from Holly's life? She accomplished a 30 year career in aerospace and automotive manufacturing. She navigated the emotional rollercoaster when her son went to jail in 'tent city'. She studied directly under Dolores Cannon. She wrote a book, Finding Purpose, after hundreds of QHHT sessions with clients. This is one of those conversations where you will need to listen to again. I am deeply inspired by this woman. We chatted about some heavy hitting topics: the subconscious mind, the construct of time, dreams, the problem with talk therapy and everything in between. If you enjoyed this conversation, please leave a review on iTunes and share this episode with your friends and family. Holly's mind is a gift and there are many who can benefit from hearing her speak.

It's one thing to be mindful of who you are being and how you are acting when you're around other people. We do this naturally - usually from a place of self consciousness and often, insecurity.  But, that's not what I'm interested in. Anybody can put on a mask for other people. The real question is: who are you being when NO ONE is watching? Who are you being when no one is there to congratulate you, validate you, like or comment on your "stuff"? Who is the person you are cultivating with your private thoughts and habits? Only you get to decide that. If you enjoy today's episode, please leave a review on iTunes and share it with your circle. Remind people that they are worthy of their own time and attention. Do this by silent example, prioririting YOU with your time and attention. When you practice taking care of you when no one is watching, you'll realize that you are the safe haven you've been searching for this whole time. You'll develop regulation techniques and self trust and self love. That's a really beautiful, emotionally responsible place to come from. You're amazing.

This conversation is so timely + supportive. It's a big ole' exhale that many people need. "It's the fastest way to calm yourself down." - Kelly It isn't often that I meet other humans who have read most of the same books I have and deliver mindfulness and meditation teaching in the same way as I do. In fact, up until recently I hadn't met anyone like this. Until Kelly Ryan came into my life, that is. The conversation that followed was POWERFUL. Kelly Ryan went from a chronically ill, stressed out corporate executive to a calm and centered mindset coach, meditation teacher, energy healer, breathwork facilitator, and transformational speaker. Now she teaches people all over the word how they can step beyond past limitations, overcome anxiety, connect to calm, consciously create their best life, and truly heal thrive on every level! Kelly has inspired thousands of students to step into their own greatness and live their best life. In today's conversation, we discuss meditation, nervous system regulation, healing autoimmune disease, the power of words, screen apnea and what to do about it, and so much more. It was a pleasure and a joy to connect with Kelly.

I was chatting with a friend about food sensitivities, something I have struggled with for many, many years. And she asked me, "Marie, how do you navigate your food sensitivities around other peoples' cooking? How do you embrace living in a sensitive body?" This conversation is inspired by that question. And what came up and out because of it is an important discussion on self worth and what it looks like to feel worthy of feeling good in the first place. Feeling good is your birthright.  You've just been trained to feel bad more of the time. Let's rewrite that. Included in this episode are 10 journal questions for self reflection to get to the root of your beliefs around wellness, sickness, boundaries and self worth. Get your pen out and get ready to uncover some answers for where you're at in your life. I love you. Hope you enjoy!

Supplementation is an incredible way to support your overall well-being in conjunction with a balanced lifestyle. But not all supplements are created the same. I agree wholeheartedly with Max Marion, my guest on the podcast today, who believes "it should be done properly." This conversation is an incredible reminder that you are 100% responsible for you and when you take charge of your health, you naturally improve your quality of life. I've been using and loving Aqua Omega's algae-based Omega 3 supplements for the last few years and have noticed a major decrease in my overall inflammation. This is a BIG DEAL, as chronic inflammation is the root cause of MOST DIS-EASE today. I only started taking Omega-3s seriously around 5 years ago when I sustained a brain injury from a concussion and needed to heal. I did my due dilligence researching options and stumbled upon an incredible Canadian company, Aqua Omega. Today, years after I began taking, enjoying and benefitting from Omega-3 supplementation, I got to have an enlightening conversation with the CEO. My main question for him: what does 'taking charge of your health' really mean and how can we do better? Maxim Marion is a forward-thinking entrepreneur with a passion for health and wellness. He is driven to innovate, create, educate, and bring transparency and ethics to a space craving it. His love for Omega-3s has led him and his team to develop the world's most concentrated oil in the absolute purest form. His mission of health and wellness has pushed his company to source directly from the raw material manufacturers in order to bridge the gap between "premium" professional products and commodity-level Omega-3 products. Max and the team at AquaOmega are committed to setting a new standard for Omega-3s, where efficacy and quality are prioritized first and foremost to give you and your family the absolute best. Head to myaquaomega.com to grab yourself the highest quality, purest omega-3 oil products on the market. I love the algae based capsules as well as the high EPA formula.

This conversation is so timely. Sensuality, sexuality, pleasure, connecting with your body in meaningful ways - these are all very real, important, day to day experiences and yet, often 'swept-under-the-rug-because-we're-scared-of-judgement' topics. I truly feel that we are living in an age where the 'Divine Feminine" energy is rising and leading. And I am here for it! Feminine energy is nurturing, open, receptive, creative, loving and powerful. And if you're like both Janessa and I, you too were probably raised in a society that taught you to suppress your sensuality, sexuality and deny pleasure.  And because of this, we create restrictive, control-obsessed tendencies and habits in every other area of our lives, choking off the flow of Life. And our connection to ourselves and others. Let's rewrite that narrative and get back to the truth of who we really are - playful spirits in physical bodies, meant to flow, enjoy + embody Love! "In order to create the love that you desire with others, you must first create that within yourself." is that quote that stuck with me from this conversation. Janessa Dalalana is an intimacy coach & mentor, group facilitator, bodyworker, dancer & artist, devoted to truth, love & beauty above all. Her unique gift is to guide others to a life of true liberation by owning their desires shamelessly, creating secure & thriving relationships & embodying their highest expression unapologetically. Janessa supports her clients with tools such as embodiment, nervous system regulation, conscious relating skills, shadow work & kink/bdsm, so they can step into their power as an erotic being & create a life of true wealth & fulfillment in all relations without compromising their pleasure.

Have you ever sat down to have a conversation, unsure of which direction it would go, and then been absolutely blown away by it? This was just like that. Melissa Hewison is a Divine Energy Healer and the Creative Heart of Sweet Soul Sister. She also happens to be my neighbour and lovely friend. We sat down to chat about divine energy healing (something Melissa is profound at fascilitating) and ended up having the most beautiful conversation about what it means and feels like to Remember the Truth of Who You Really Are. It was beautiful. I know you're going to love this conversation as much as I did. Oh, also, do yourself a favour and go purchase Melissa's products on https://www.sweetsoulsister.ca/ I personally have used MANY of the aura sprays, annointing oil, perfumes, etc. They are like LOVE in a bottle.

Holy chicken noodle soup, batman. THIS was SUCH an incredible conversation. I am HONOURED to have had the chance to chat Human Design with the one and only, Erin Claire Jones. This is THE Human Design conversation. Erin is an INCREDIBLE well of wisdom on this topic. We chatted about the 5 different types as well as what your Authority means, the 12 different Profiles, with a detailed emphasis on the 6 types, how to be in relationship with each type and so much more! Erin Claire Jones uses Human Design to help thousands of individuals and companies step into their work and their lives as their truest selves and to their highest potential. Her work as a guide, coach, and speaker has attracted a growing community of over 140,000 people who turn to her teachings for practical tools, digestible tips, and deeper self-knowledge they can access to live with greater ease and authenticity every single day. With work featured in Forbes, mindbodygreen, Well&Good, and Nylon; words shared on over 150 podcasts such as Almost30, That's So Retrograde, Highest Self, and Chatty Broads; and conversations with crowds of hundreds around the world, Erin's insights are highly sought-after because they make Human Design pragmatic, tangible, accessible — and immediately applicable to everyday life. Human Design is a synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern science that sheds light on a person's energetic makeup, as well as specific tools they can use to live at their happiest, healthiest, highest potential. It doesn't change who they are; it teaches them who they are. It offers insight into what's possible, and highlights the significance of understanding and living as the fullest expression of themselves. By putting this tool to work in her own life, Erin is showing the world a new way of work, a new path toward success, and a new perspective on living as you truly are.

What happens when the "honeymoon phase" of your new determination to create new habits wanes off... You know, the 2 week mark after you've begun a new workout program, or a new way of eating, or a journal habit, etc. etc. etc. First thing's first: Our brains are literally designed to keep things consistent. And our old habits have been running deep grooves for a long time, for many of us, our entire lives. So, how do we create and cultivate new habits that serve us and let go of the ones that no longer do?  We go deep and reprogram our subconscious beliefs. How?  Tune in for a little pep talk on how to quit self-sabotaging (and finally achieve the results you desire).   Always in your corner, Marie Check these out: 30 Day Flow Reflection Journal: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/shop Oura Ring: https://oura.link/LdGwRvOM Free Morning Meditation Audio: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/morningmeditation 13 Downloadable Meditations: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/offers/tRoJJH2o Know Your Flow Cyclical Living Program: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/know-your-flow Stress Less + Learn To Meditate Program: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/stress-less-course Join Marie's 4 Week Flow Group Coaching Container (workouts, elimination protocol + journal): https://forms.gle/9ZqS9iotf5mEyZRJ8 Connect with Marie on IG:https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/ Check out Marie's Website:https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/ Connect with Marie via email:https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/contact

Every once in awhile, an email will come across my inbox that makes me stop and then makes me smile in deep appreciation. The way Judy Machado connected with me was just like that. I opened my email inbox to find the most genuine, thoughtful, loving message from this total stranger about how impactful my podcast is and how beautiful my mission of empowering women is. I was immediately drawn to this woman's kindness and then, when we got to dive into her zone of genius: sacred cacao, I was completely hooked. Judy is the Author of Life Purpose Playbook and the Founder of Goddess Temple Cacao. She is an incredible teacher of this sacred plant medicine. Entrepreneur, Coach & business owner, Judy was recently a Partner of a bean to bar chocolate company. She became infatuated with the spiritual history and significance of Cacao and whole heartily connected to the Spirit of this heart opening, Consciousness-raising plant medicine.
 Over the years, she deepened her connection with the plant and began to experience a profound relationship with the Cacao higher Consciousness, receiving profound messages to share with the world. Judy has been exponentially transformed through her profound relationship with Sacred Cacao. She's grateful and Honoured to share this powerful plant medicine with others. And the best part? YOU CAN FEEL IT FROM HER when she speaks about it. This is hands down one of my FAVOURITE conversations I've ever had the pleasure to record. I will personally revisit this one many times because of the wisdom that Judy shared within it. "In order to evolve, you must experience love backwards - evol, love - we live in this duality. We've come here to experience the darkness so that we can remember our light." - Judy Machado   We chatted about: - The curious story that brought Judy to working with ceremonial cacao - Master plants, Teacher plants and how Collective Consciousness works - Theobroma, or "the food of Gods and Goddesses" - Sacred relationships and what constitutes them - Conditioning, limiting beliefs and ego stories vs. our true nature - Plant medicines - Her gorgeous morning routine - An incredible story at the end of our chat that almost had me in tears CONNECT WITH JUDY: https://www.instagram.com/goddesstemplecacao/ https://www.goddesstemplecacao.com/ CONNECT WITH MARIE: https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/ https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/podcast FREE MORNING GRATITUDE MEDITATION AUDIO: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/morningmeditation DOWNLOAD MARIE'S FULL GUIDED MEDITATION LIBRARY: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/offers/tRoJJH2o

Put your hand up if you're stressed out... We have become human DOINGS, on 24/7, tuned in to our devices more than we're tuned into ourselves and our state of being shows. Because of this, we're not breathing or slowing down to pause and our bodies are recalibrating to function in a stressed out state, which is causing dis-ease in the body. We often seek out meditation because we have too many thoughts. But then, we feel we suck at meditating because we have too many thoughts... Marie, a women's wellness coach with a focus on mindfulness, cyclical living and feeling good, is here to debunk the difficulty of meditation and teach you how to implement a simple, daily practice that will help you relax, unwind and feel better.

At a certain point in my life, after dealing with sickness after sickness, I started to question the medical system's ability to help me heal and instead turned to Nature and listening to my body's needs instead. It changed everything. Today's beautiful guest, Krysta Francoeur, the founder and CEO of Wild Remedies, had a very similar experience. It was through spending years of her life sick and eventually having her tonsils removed at age 23 that she came into the discovery of the healing properties of plant medicine. She spent some time living abroad in Europe, Mexico, the US as well as in Malaysia working for Mindvalley as a Senior Designer. She began to dive into the power of nature as Healer and the science of spirituality. It was during that time that she discovered the incredibly healing mushroom, Chaga, which led her to creating her first tea product and eventually, her incredible collection of Magick Lattes with Wild Remedies. They are GORGEOUS and LUXURIOUS! You can grab yours below. We chatted about: - Our mutual experiences growing up with chronic sickness - How Krysta came into the science of spirituality + metaphysics - How the breakdown leads to the breakthrough - Following your gut and living according to your Intuition - The magic of rituals and Krysta's morning routine - Feeling connected to something larger than ourselves - Synchronicities + "coincidences" - "The Surrender Experiment" by Michael Singer - "The Untethered Soul" by Michael Singer - Our mutual obsession with the "Conversations with God" series by Neale Donald Walsch - "Ask and It Is Given" by Abraham Hicks - "The Top 5 Regrets Of The Dying" by Bronnie Ware and sooo much more!   ----------------------   The THREE gifts I mention mid-episode for you to take advantage of this holiday season:   1) Access the EXACT SAME 20 min./day (5 days a week) at home fitness program I will be doing for the month of December HERE.

There is an overwhelming amount of information available on how to achieve the results you want. The common narrative seems to be "work harder, train more, eat less, push, grind, punish, sleep when you're dead" in order to get the results you want.

"I wanted to change the food we ate." is the sentiment that brought today's guest, my dear friend Carla Jans, to the work she's doing now with medicinal mushrooms and herbs. She blends her background in Nutritional Science (specifically holistic culinary nutrition) with plant medicine, incorporating herbal remedies into daily life in fun and creative ways, and inspiring others (like you and I) along the way. Carla has a WEALTH of knowledge, so pay attention to what she shares in our conversation here all about medicinal mushrooms! We discuss: - Carla's roots on a farm influencing her connection with nature - the emotional connection humans have to herbs - the difference between medicinal and magic mushrooms - The power of Nettles, essential oils and mushrooms for healing - The top 5 mushrooms and their medicinal properties (chaga, reishi, lions mane, cordyceps and turkey tail) - Carla's go-to coconut rice recipe - Her current morning routine (it's just like mine!) - The one thing she suggests for living more intentionally today Resources + Connect with us: Shop Medicinal Mushrooms from FreshCap (the company Carla works with) + save 10% on your order: https://bit.ly/3rsG5y3    *use code MARIE10 at checkout* More information on the mushrooms mentioned here: https://mycologypress.com/medicinal-mushrooms/ Grow your own countertop mushrooms: https://www.wtfmushrooms.ca/ You can connect with Carla on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jans.carla/ Marie's KNOW YOUR FLOW (cyclical living) PROGRAM: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/know-your-flow   *FREE* MORNING GRATITUDE GUIDED MEDITATION: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/weekly-love-letter-sign-up *FREE* STRESS LESS MORNING JOURNAL PDF: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/opt-in JOIN MARIE'S BWELL CLUB (ONLINE WELLNESS COMMUNITY): https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/gethealthy   MARIE'S IG: https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/   MARIE'S WEBSITE: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/podcast

Every November, a slew of Black Friday and Cyber Monday emails and advertisements take over my inbox and social media feeds. And over the last couple of years, as I've become a more intentional, aware person, I've noticed the immediate instinct to "go buy now!" that comes up when I see these ads. It's not that the ads are bad by any means, most of them are really great opportunities to save money on products I already use and love. I just notice the desire to 'buy more, quickly!' during this season, even if it's not something I necessarily need or want to spend money on at that time... So when I connected with Abbey Trujillo from The Peach Vintage, I knew we needed to have a timely conversation about living, loving and second-hand shopping. And I knew it needed to be published this week, during all of the "buy now" craziness. Abbey is THE sweetest human and I'm grateful for our new friendship. We connected over a mutual love for thrifting and living intentionally and the conversation that follows is a byproduct of that! More specifically though? We chatted about how deeply caring for everyday objects can change your life. We chatted about the impact of fast fashion and how we vote with our dollar. We chatted about how to romanticize your life and be the main star in your own movie. We chatted about the energy that things hold and how to cultivate an abundance mentality. And so much more. I feel this is such a timely conversation and I think you'll really enjoy it. Soak up her words. This woman walks her talk. Abbey Trujillo is the owner and designer of Peach Vintage, a sustainable in house clothing label and seller of vintage goods based in Utah, USA. Within their online shop, you can find sustainably handcrafted, collected and curated vintage - for the body and the home, by women, for women. Their values resonate deeply with my own and I am so excited for you to tune in to our conversation about all things intentional living, loving and thrifting.   -----   CONNECT WITH ABBEY + The Peach Vintage: www.peachvintage.com https://www.instagram.com/thepeachvintage/   -----   CONNECT WITH MARIE: KNOW YOUR FLOW (cyclical living) PROGRAM: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/know-your-flow   FREE MORNING GRATITUDE MEDITATION: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/weekly-love-letter-sign-up FREE STRESS LESS MORNING JOURNAL PDF: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/opt-in JOIN MARIE'S ONLINE BWELL CLUB COMMUNITY: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/gethealthy   CONNECT ON SOCIAL: https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/   WEBSITE: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/podcast

I have always been drawn to quotes. There's just something so powerful about a simple string of words. And sometimes - especially if we're going through a hard season - they can remind us of who we really are and the simple truths of life. Which we may have forgotten temporarily. I've been collecting, writing + appreciating quotes since I knew how to read. Today's episode is a fun one where I read the current quote + life lesson cue card stack from my desk. Need to feel inspired on purpose? Tune in and take what you need from this one. You are amazing. I love you. ps - My inbox is always open to connect and I would love to hear from you.

Do you have deep chats with your spouse over coffee? Brandon and I were chatting about the new "Meta" name Facebook recently revealed and it led to a full blown conversation about the difference between creating and consuming. The person who gets to bake cakes all day has a completely different experience than the person who eats cakes all day long. One allows you to express yourself. The other can make you sick. Consuming as much screen time as we do is literally making us sick. The joy is found in the creating, not in the consuming. The process is where we truly feel alive, not the outcome. Tune in for our fun coffee chat that ended up as a discussion on how to find fulfillment in your life. - M   LET'S CONNECT ON SOCIAL: https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/   FREE MORNING GRATITUDE MEDITATION: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/weekly-love-letter-sign-up   KNOW YOUR FLOW (cyclical living) PROGRAM: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/know-your-flow FREE STRESS LESS MORNING JOURNAL PDF: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/opt-in JOIN MARIE'S BWELL CLUB COMMUNITY: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/gethealthy   WEBSITE: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/podcast

I ride roller-coasters all the time without visiting amusement parks... Yeah, I'm talking about my emotions. In any given day, I can go from HAPPY JOY JOY to WTF WORLD to *heavy crying*. And the last few months, it's felt a little more challenging to get to my usual "Marie Joy" if I'm being totally honest. But I think that's the most important thing, that we be honest and also normalize being a human. As a human, we get the opportunity to experience a wide variety of emotions. The full spectrum if you will. And I think that's a beautiful thing! Even if some of the emotions and experiences on that scale are downright painful and uncomfortable as hell. So I rode the roller-coaster today and as I was about to have a nap in an attempt to feel better, a little voice said, "it's burn out. You're experiencing burn out." And I felt so at peace even in the admitting of that. Today's episode is an honest conversation about burnout, what to do about it and my favourite "light up" list practice! If you resonate at all with what I share, reach out. It helps us all feel less alone in our experiences. ps - Leave a Review, Save, Download + Share this episode if it speaks to you!

There's a lot of pissed-off-ness going on in the world right now. The storm is raging inside many people's hearts. But anger gets a bad rep. Sometimes life doesn't go the way we thought it would and we get upset when that happens. Sometimes, unjust things happen and we feel outraged at the experience. Sometimes we make choices that we didn't feel were really a choice (even though they were) that cause us to abandon our truth in an attempt to please the "other", and we're left with resentment. When we feel angry and don't have healthy ways of expressing ourselves, we bottle it up and then explode. Anger is a healthy emotion that we get to feel as part of the human experience. It's what we DO with our anger that makes all the difference. You have to feel it to heal it, my friend. (and in this episode, I guide you through an inner child exercise where we release our anger and reframe the stories in our mind). And the best (also slightly annoying) part? We can choose to feel our anger and release it, or we can choose to bottle it up and burn from the inside out. But the choice is ours to make. Tune in for some helpful tools you can use to process your anger and reframe the stories in your mind. And then let me know on social if you resonate!

Sometimes life hands you lemons and you find yourself feeling low. This is especially true when you don't feel well physically. "When you don't feel well, life feels hard."

Today is a special day. Not only is it podcast release day, but today's conversation features one of my best friends in the entire world, Michelle Catherine Rose. This sweet soul and I connected a year ago to date, but it feels as if we've known each other for decades.

Every once in awhile, an extra special woman enters my awareness and I make a point to connect. This started like that. I had seen Amy's name float across my Instagram, and when I felt the little intuitive nudge that I know (and trust) all too well, I reached out and started a conversation. "I just have this feeling, want to be friends?" Or something like that lol. We connected over my intuitive hit to message her and then proceeded to have the most intuitively guided, gorgeous conversation about... you guessed it, intuition. More specifically though? We chatted all things "the feminine frequency". This is going to be an episode you want to listen to again and again. Soak up her words. This woman walks her talk. And then use her questions to guide your next steps:"Who am I? What makes me happy? What do I want?" Some of the things we chatted about: - Amy's incredible story of self discovery, starting with a divorce. - Why it's so important to connect with our femininity, intuition and creativity. - Appearance vs. Reality - Masculine & Feminine Energies - PLEASURE - The Feminine Archetypes - Personal Development through a feminine lens + so much more!   Amy Natalie is a Women's Empowerment coach and a leader of the Feminine Rising. After experiencing her first spiritual awakening at age 27, she went through a divorce, overcame depression, and started following her true soul calling.  For the past 8 years, Amy has supported women to overcome mindset blocks and get into alignment with their soul. Through her group programs and events, Amy brings women together in Sisterhood to grow and evolve together. Amy is also the host of the Feminine Frequency Podcast which has over 100k downloads and empowers women from all around the world. ----- CONNECT WITH AMY: Amy's FREE morning ritual audio:www.amynatalieco.com/morningritual   Feminine Frequency Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/feminine-frequency-podcast/id1494698607 INSTA: https://www.instagram.com/amynatalieco WEBSITE:https://amynatalieco.com/ ----- CONNECT WITH MARIE: KNOW YOUR FLOW (cyclical living) PROGRAM: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/know-your-flow   FREE MORNING GRATITUDE MEDITATION: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/weekly-love-letter-sign-up FREE STRESS LESS MORNING JOURNAL PDF: https://marie-barker-wellness.mykajabi.com/opt-in JOIN MARIE'S ONLINE BWELL CLUB COMMUNITY: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/gethealthy   CONNECT ON SOCIAL: https://www.instagram.com/mariebarkerwellness/   WEBSITE: https://www.mariebarkerwellness.com/podcast

The simplest things in life are often overlooked, simply because we think effectiveness = complication. But what I've found, and I know today's guest Meghan Sandve would agree, is that the power can be found in the simple truths of the present moment. One of those powerful things is the breath. This is single-handedly our most underutilized tool for creating the energy and emotions we wish to have. "We move energy with breath, movement and sound." Need more energy? Speed up your breathing. Need to calm down? Slow down your breathing. Need to ground yourself? Hum on the exhale. Need to release tension? Sigh audibly on the exhale. "It was under my nose this whole time" takes on an entirely new meaning lol! Join Marie and Meghan Sandve, a Body Empowerment Coach, Breathwork Facilitator and the host of the Fit & Fierce Podcast (who also appears in Ep. 74 "Sit With Your Shit") as they discuss self-regulating emotions by using the breath.

After a summer hiatus from podcasting, I'm BAAAAAACKKKKK, baby! And so excited to share a mini series for September alllllllll about SELF SOOTHING.

May is Meditation Month! So, naturally, Jen Alico (also known as @zenjen.meditation) and I HAD to have a juicy conversation on all things meditation - what led us to it, what keeps us in it and everything in between! We also CO-HOSTED a fun meditation class on SAT MAY 22 @9am MST / 11am EST and if you'd like a copy of the recording, you can register and pay below and we will send it your way! Grab the recording of the class below: https://view.flodesk.com/pages/60995eab391ebec77bae3ef3 We guided two different meditations, chatted about emotions, journaling, practiced breathwork and help you begin your day feeling grounded, relaxed and grateful. Share the above link with anyone you think might benefit, the more the merrier! Jen is a 300hr Certified Meditation Coach who, after earning her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Accounting, quickly found herself in the corporate world feeling exhausted and burnt-out. During that time she found meditation; which helped her stay positive, establish work/life balance, and gain confidence in many aspects of her life. Now she is using what she has learned to help both individuals and teams of hardworking professionals overcome stress and burnout with the tools of meditation and mindfulness.   REGISTER FOR MINDFUL MORNING PRACTICE W MARIE AND JEN TO RECEIVE THE RECORDING!

This conversation is the one I wish I would have heard before I spent 10 years on 6 different types of hormonal birth control, not knowing there was another option for me.   I had never heard of basal body temping, or cervical fluid and fertility awareness.   All I knew was that I had really painful periods, acne and other symptoms that hormonal birth control kinda sorta* helped to mask and that I didn't want to get pregnant, so I better stay on it...   THERE IS A BETTER WAY.   It's called the Fertility Awareness Method and holy moly, more women need to know about this so they can implement it and take back their power!   Watch this video and if FAM strikes a chord with you, make sure to sign up for my KNOW YOUR FLOW PROGRAM asap and also go check out Joy's instagram page to learn more about working with her! She is a TREAT!   Joy Davis is an Anishinaabe Fertility Awareness Method Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner. Her company, Full Moon Fertility, helps to teach anyone how to chart their menstrual cycles for health, birth control or for conception.
