The Braving Wander Podcast

It was my absolute honor and pleasure to sit and have this vulnerable chat with my good friend and sis, Nazia Dora (formerly Frank!). One of my first memories of Nazia was realizing she knew God in a way that I didn't, I was immediately intrigued. As you may realize from my last episode, I've been on a journey of rediscovering who I am to/with God and what that connection looks like now v when I was growing up. Nazia shares her journey and discusses what her journey with God has always been like. I view Nazia as the ultimate equalizer, 'the bridger of gaps' if you will, so it was important that I have this open and vulnerable conversation with her given my history with God and religion. Nazia held space for me and made me feel scene; I am othered in multiple ways but Nazia created a space where I could still see myself as a child of God. Get into this chat, hunnieeee!!! & click here to listen to the trailer of Nazia's up and coming podcast, Small Moments with Big People; This is a non-sugar coated faith based podcast, that aims to help discover who we are in God and His Kingdom, through sharing Bible stories. I'm back on Tik Tok! Sharing short but sweet meditations and breathing practices to help you check in with yourself daily. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bravingwander/support

I've been thinking heavily about my relationship with God and how I ended up in this sacred relationship. In this episode, I explore my journey with God and use it as a basis to discuss hw we view and connect with God. Please note: you can only answer the question posed if you are listening with Spotify. disclaimer: I recorded this 20 minutes after waking up so please excuse my voice :) but you know we keep it very real over here!

I've been deeply focused on healing my traumas for a while now; creating a safe space for my inner child, releasing and shedding.. so many tower moments.. so much purging. I think it's time to take a break...

The future is still very unclear but im learning to embrace it! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

"Stacey, sometimes, when it seems your wings have suddenly and unexpectedly been clipped, maybe, just maybe, there's more to learn by staying where you are. - The Universe" Received this email today "A NOTE FROM THE UNIVERSE" and it was exactly what I needed to hear. I've been finding it extremely difficult to JUST BE. I've worked so hard to get where I am now that I've been foolishly expecting everything to happen quickly (as opportunities have been flowing in)! Because things haven't been moving as fast as I'd like, I got into thinking "maybe I just need to move on" but what good does that do me? how does the effect my journey? Tune in! Listen to what I've been processing; maybe you can relate. (check out the Q&A if you're listening on Spotify!!) -- GET ON THE BW MAILING LIST!

When was the last time you sat with yourself and allowed yourself to experience the depths of your emotions? We tend to get stuck on the surface and this prevents us from truly understanding what we're going through. The effects of not going deeper impact our life experiences; relationships, how we communicate, how we work, OUR ENERGY! In this episode, I talk about how using the Emotion Wheel helped me understand the core emotions and initial triggers of some things I've been working through with family. I also get into the prosperity that has been effortlessly pouring into my life since completing my 40 days of Har Meditation! -- JOIN THE MAILING LIST!

EXPANSION is the word that has been coming up a lot for me recently; in conversations, in my journaling, signs & syncs all over the place. With the current moon cycle, full moon / lunar eclipse in Scorpio, we are really being called to clear out past patterns that are holding us back from true fulfillment. In this episode, I get into the pains I've been feeling recently and how they're related to the death and rebirth cycle I've been experiencing for the past couple of years.

The biggest thing that has come up for me as I'm healing my inner teen is relationships of all kinds; friendships, parent-child, sibling, intimate, workplace etc. I realized that I gave so much of myself, as a teen, to these relationships HOPING for reciprocity, HOPING that people would see the value in having me in their lives. This obviously created imbalanced relationship structures where I developed codependent tendencies and unhealthy attachments. In this week's new episode of, I go deeper into some conversations I've been having with my friends, family members and self around the mechanisms I've developed in order to hold on to people. -- Join the mailing list!

We're still chatting with some lovely participants from Wellness Official's first NYC Energy Healing training Melanie Palmietto is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, licensed in New York. Melanie helps adolescents and adults navigate their human experience and connect with their soul selves while healing and getting to know all parts of themselves. Melanie will guide you through identifying tools specific to your healing you and will provide a safe and judgement free space. She shared one of my favorite things about breathwork ‘during the training I had access to parts of myself that I was numbing and shying away from.” If you use breathwork as a tool, then you know how real this is! We also get into releasing the power marijuana was holding over her! It started out as something she really enjoyed but it turned into a numbing tool. When and how did she come to terms with the real message behind that connection? TUNE IN TO FIND OUT! AGAIN… this is another chat that needs a part 2!

This is the calm after the storm... I recorded this voice memo right after crying my eyes out! I'm going through a deep transformation that I've been talking about on Instagram and via my mailing list and I want to share all parts of my healing with the Braving Wander community -- the highs, the lows, the aha moments, all the shadow work, healing my inner child etc -- so of course I had to share this with you.

In this episode I'm taking you through an awareness technique I often use to gain clarity! If you're anything like me, you can't seem to write as fast your thoughts are coming through. I use this recorded word vomit technique to declutter my spiritual, emotional and mental spaces. My intention is that you hear something you needed to hear, that you feel seen.

Part two to our discussion on SHADOW WORK! “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. At all counts, it forms an unconscious snag, thwarting our most well-meant intentions.” - Carl Jung Questions for shadow work: Who would you be if you were unafraid? Who would you be if you stopped self-sabotaging? Who would you be if you allowed yourself to soar? Are you the problem? Are you honoring your boundaries and respecting the boundaries of others? As a child… What about you wasn't being accepted? What did you have to hide about yourself? What didn't you receive? What wasn't enough for you?
