It also happens to be the winter solstice, and the night that Jupiter and Saturn align to make one big megastar that scholars are saying rivals the Christmas star of Bethlehem. No star has ever shined as bright for probably 800 years.A lot of people in the spiritual space feel that this will be the day that the world will shift into 5D. What exactly is 5D?! Well, to be honest, I have no idea. Love and light are thrown around flippantly when I’ve heard people talk about the shift…”vibrational match” and “frequency upgrades” are too.To me, I feel transitioning into 5D could be as simple as a mindset shift. The old ways of our world seem not to be working for the majority of us any longer, and a collective recognizing of that notion could be all it takes to really shift. For Craig, he believes the shift will be more physiological. Maybe the Earth actually does change? Maybe some of us are a vibrational match for the change, and some of us are not? Who really knows? …But we have fun talking about it, and we’re going to have a fun night on the 21st celebrating whatever change, little or big, that happens.

It is also sometimes referred to as autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA). BII can occur with any type of breast implant, including silicone gel-filled, saline-filled, smooth surface, textured surface, round, or teardrop-shaped.BII impacts each individual in a unique way. Symptoms can include:joint and muscle painchronic fatiguememory and concentration problemsbreathing problemssleep disturbancerashes and skin problemsdry mouth and dry eyesanxietydepressionheadacheshair lossgastrointestinal problemsThe symptoms can appear any time after implant surgery — some people develop symptoms immediately, while some develop them years later.A lot of the symptoms of BII are associated with autoimmune and connective tissue disorders, such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and scleroderma. Some people who have BII also get diagnosed with a specific autoimmune or connective tissue disorder, but many do not.In many, but not all cases, surgery to remove the breast implants improves or completely resolves the BII symptoms.Find Haley on Instagram: @ittybittytittygoods

Ever since she was a child, those in her presence would reflect back to her that they felt seen, heard and understood in a deep and meaningful way. She has come to believe that compassion, empathy, and living life with purpose can free people from self- limiting thoughts, beliefs and doubts. Through good therapy, she healed herself and learned about the power of self- love and trust.In our episode together we discuss how our brain is actually comparable to computer software, and how it has hardwired “programs” that kick in when we experience trauma or fear. Dr. Mo goes over the 5 common fear responses: Flight, fight, freeze, fawn, or flop, and I was shocked to learn from her that there are more responses than flight, fight, or freeze. More so, I was shocked to realize that I had consistently experienced the “fawning” method of a fear response for basically my whole life while being totally unconscious of it. Major A-HA moment for me. You can find more information about Dr. Rubin, and download her FREE BOOK, The Accelerated Habit Method, on her website: http://www.moreenrubin.comAnd find her on Instagram: @DrMoreenRubin

In today's world, I've come to realize that "shadow work" is almost a trendy word, and the way it's displayed all across social media has made it seem like a one-time bridge you cross over, then never have to look back on.

I've seen her name circling around in the mindfulness space for a few years now, but our conversation together this day was my first real encounter with her, and lemme tell ya...she is one powerful woman. Something that was unexpected about our episode is that I originally asked Sadie to come on to talk about her self love courses, children's meditations, and her hiking retreats--but Sadie ended up going deep into her relationship with her faith.Because my episode last week was all about my faith expansion out of Mormonism, I feel it is only appropriate to air Sadie's story of expanding her faith while choosing to remain a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormonism). The libra in me seriously loves this balance. What can I say?!*And a special note to all of you who wrote into me over the last week, THANK YOU. The outpouring of messages has been both overwhelming and surprising. I wasn't anticipating all the support and kind messages. This space we're carving out together in my little corner of this Podcast World is something I am immensely proud of. You guys, the listeners, are making this all happen and I want to remind you of that. Thank you again for being open and ready to hear the sometimes big ( and uncomfortable) conversations like this one and last weeks, too. It's in these types of conversations that we all grow and true change is made. To find Sadie:Instagram: simplysadiejanewebsite: www.simplysadiejane.comApp: Simply Sadie Jane

*TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is outlining specific teachings, rules, happenings, and ideologies of the Mormon Faith that may be very uncomfortable for current LDS members to listen to because it is not promoting the LDS faith. As a past member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for 26 years, I know I would NOT enjoy listening to this story if I was a happy and content member, and it could have potentially shaken my faith if I didn't already know certain facts about the founder's history that aren't as openly discussed in Sunday School. While none of the contents of this episode are pulled from anywhere but Church Approved websites stating historical facts, I recognize that not all members know the depths of certain happenings, so, I feel the need to warn all active members before they choose to listen to this that I talk about my opinions regarding specifics on the churches history with polygamy/polyandry, race, and bishop's interviews discussing sex/masturbation with unaccompanied minors and adults alike. * Well, here is the episode I said I would never do. I guess never say never? Anyway, I feel called to tell this one big missing puzzle piece of my story here on the podcast for a few reasons. One is that I hope by finally doing this, this subject matter will kind of be put to rest. And two, I know more people are leaving this faith than ever before. It is a painful transition out with so many stigmas and hurt feelings. I know that while I don't really want to do this, I am meant to do this. I think my story and where my family and I have landed after expanding outside of Mormonism over the last 6+ years may help others who are deeply hurting while transitioning out now. My other hope lays at the very end of the episode, and I won't spill all the beans here in the description, but I hope that my Mormon friends/family will start sharing their spiritual experiences with me again as they used to when I was a member. I love hearing about them, and that didn't change about me when I left. My wish is that you believe and honor that I am happy, thriving, and spiritually connected although I am outside of the faith now, just as I honor and believe that you are happy, thriving, and spiritually connected while remaining inside the faith.This episode of Wake Up With Weslie is brought to you by:Vouri.Vuori is a new perspective on high-performance apparel.

I could talk to her for HOURS. So, if you don't already know, Jordan Younger is the beautiful mind behind The Balanced Blonde Soul on Fire Podcast.In this episode we talk about how she became global news back in 2014 for openly taking a break from veganism, and the subsequent backlash she received. It was a whirlwind! She wrote a book called, Breaking Vegan, but as we discuss in the show, Jordan admits it feels like a different person who went through that experience. (She is currently vegan again and THRIVING!) So much has changed in the last 6 years for Jordan. She was diagnosed with lyme disease, and has been openly sharing what has been working for her and not working for her throughout her healing journey with chronic illness. Something that has spiked my interest so incredibly much that Jordan shares with us in this episode is her information and experience with the Pleiadians. I had no idea what this was before she told me about them, but it is fascinating! We also discuss her newfound spiritual gifts that she's been discovering which include seeing people's face shape shift. This is such an interesting discussion, that's for sure! ALSO! We did a podcast swap and joint giveaway, so head on over to The Balanced Blonde, Soul on Fire podcast to hear Jordan interview me.To enter the giveaway: Subscribe, rate, and review both of our podcasts on Apple podcasts. Take a screenshot then send it to devynne@wakeupwithweslie.com and we will pick a joint winner!The winner will receive one of my Do No Harm/Take No Shit crewnecks, and Jordan's 22 day detox recipe EBook that is filled with 50 healthy, plant based meals that are all salt, oil, and sugar free!

In college, she found herself in a psychology class and couldn't get enough, which lead her to become the mental health professional that she is today.Speaking to her about this subject was so illuminating for me. For instance, before she went into detail about some of the traumas she dealt with around her father's death, she simply asked me if I was emotionally available to hear specifics, or if I would prefer to skip details. Just this act alone changed the way that I will talk about big issues like this with future guests or friends. It was so simple, so kind, and allowed trust and ease for the conversation to continue on in. And this is why I wanted Meadowlark on the show...she is teaching me, and hopefully, us all, how to have these types of harder conversations in a way that doesn't feel as hard or uncomfortable. Beyond this, Meadow gives us a detailed list of coping mechanisms that she uses herself when she is triggered or having a rough mental health day. Instagram: @meadow_afYoutube: Meadowlark

In this week's episode he takes us into his not too long ago past where he was living a completely different life than he is today. He was born and raised Mormon (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints), and served a Mormon mission. It was on his mission that he knew he needed to confront the skeletons in his closet, one of which was that he was a closeted gay man. His story is heartbreakingly beautiful. Nate takes us into some of the darkest parts of his past in hopes to shine a light on some of the destructive and torturous practices that are still being practiced today: Conversion therapy. Nate is a different man today than he was just a few short years ago. He is now fully out and a proud gay member of our society who is fighting to eradicate the dangerous and controversial Conversion Therapy practices that are still happening in some states across the USA, and is an advocate for Suicide Prevention and Awareness month.

Indy is one of my nearest and dearest, and Bronson is my husband. Their friendship turned into a business partnership when they decided to try to sell a T-shirt together and just see how it went. I don't think either of them, or I, knew what would unfold in the following 19 months. A fashion line was a pipe dream that Indy had even as a child, but she thought it was far out into her future, and to be honest, it wasn't even on Bronson's radar in the beginning, but you'll get to hear exactly how it all started in this week's episode. Lonely Ghost was born out of their love of fashion, design, content creation, and a saying that just felt right...I LOVE YOU SAY IT BACKWhich brings us to the tea....and they're spilling it.You may have seen it in the news, or maybe not, but if you have--then you'll finally get some answers to the questions you've all been asking in this episode about the now infamous saying.

It's odd that I'm interviewing her because initially, Tarot was the one thing I steered far, far away from until Katy literally ended up in my family's living room one summer Sunday not too long ago. After listening to only 2 sentences of what she had to say in that same living room, I was hooked.Katy explains how Tarot is just another tool to help us connect with our highest self, loved ones, or our intuition. She goes into how you can start right now to listen to your intuition more clearly. We go in depth on our chance meeting, my first tarot card reading, and what Katy thinks waking up as a collective actually means for all of us.

It was more difficult than I imagined it would be to wrap my mind around, and then try to convey to you all what key factors really did made an impact for me and my kids in the last 12 years. I originally tried to go super broad with this topic, but realized I couldn’t. I had to go specific, and it had to get personal, because I think motherhood is the most intimate, and important relationship I will have throughly my entire lifetime... I’m sure of it. It’s also happens to be the most difficult, because there is simply no hiding yourself in motherhood. Your kids see you. ...so I didn’t know how to talk about motherhood without getting intimate. In this episode I break down my top 10 “have-to’s” if you’re ready to go from surviving to thriving in your motherhood.
