In the email exchange leading up to our conversation, my guest Kristina Marie wrote "The Hero is Dead."That sentence stopped me in my tracks. It's a suspicion I've had for a while, but maybe there's still a part of me that doesn't want it to be true. "What do you mean? But I love my hero's journey stories!" that part protested.In the episode, Kristina and I dove straight into this topic. We discussed: The new myths we're living, telling, and weaving in the face of crumbling structures and collapsing old paradigmsThe difference between the mystic's journey and the hero or heroine's journeyWhat a transformational story isThe journey of becoming the person who can tell our own stories as its own unique processIt's a profound conversation and my mind was blown with epiphany after epiphany throughout.Here's Kristina's bio:For more than a decade, I worked as a journalist and an editor at top national magazines, including Travel + Leisure and T magazine at the New York Times. Since launching Voyages of the Spirit nine years ago, I've combined my publishing skills, intuitive gifts, and creative wisdom to mentor writers, leaders, visionaries, mystics, and storytellers.

What if you weren't afraid of being fully booked—but of what it might cost you? That was a quiet concern Betty carried—and one so many First Gen entrepreneurs know too well. As a daughter of Chinese immigrants and an Authenticity coach, being booked out initially didn't feel like freedom. It felt like pressure, perfectionism, and losing space to be. And yet - Betty became a booked-out coach with a 3-month waitlist while in Reclamation Mastermind. This is Betty's second round inside Reclamation and second time on the podcast (my first ever two-time guest!)In the first round of the mastermind, Betty hit their biggest revenue quarter and landed paid speaking engagements and workshops for big brands like Olly Vitamins. And this round? She's fully booked, beyond what was expected as a ‘booked out' number. We talk about what it really means to hit your version of capacity, especially when your business is rooted in identity, depth, and alignment—not just strategy. In this episode:How Betty ended up fully booked without chasing itFeeling safe to be booked out after a lifetime of over-functioning and overworkingWhy quiet seasons were the key to sustainable growthHow Reclamation helped structure her marketing to further support and stabilize what was already working (her referrals), while growing her thought leadership and visibility through speaking, LinkedIn and YouTube.If you've been wondering how to grow without changing what's working—this one's for you. If you saw yourself in Betty's story and you know it can be years too, then you belong in Reclamation.

If you've ever had a big sales season but no idea how to repeat it…If you've been relying on referrals that feel unpredictable…If you've second-guessed your pricing, or worried demand will dry up the moment you slow down…If you've felt the tension between wanting to serve high-level clients and attracting entry-level ones……this workshop replay is for you.The truth is, your next level of demand never come from doing more. It comes from closing three key gaps in your business FIRST:The Messaging Gap — what you're sayingThe Marketing Gap — where you're saying itThe Identity Gap — who you're beingAnd the one thing that closes all three? Thought Leadership Marketing.Thought leadership marketing sharpens your message so it lands with power. It expands your reach beyond your own platform, so you're visible in rooms you didn't have to build yourself. And it helps you step into your identity as a thought leader — knowing you don't need to water down your story, your voice, or your values to create consistent demand.Inside this workshop replay, you'll learn:Why repeating past success has felt so hard (and what actually changes that)How the three gaps keep you from consistent demand — and how thought leadership marketing closes each oneTangible steps to book out your offers without more hustleWhat it looks like to grow a business rooted in who you are, not in performance or pressure✨ You're already sitting on a gold mine of thought leadership.

Sometimes the key to booking out is solving a more "expensive" or complex version of the problem you're already solving now, which attracts higher level clients. When Eunice first joined Reclamation in summer 2024, her son was just a month old. She wanted to build a business that supported her family, allowed her to be present as a mom, and reflected the full range of her expertise and lived experience.Inside Reclamation, she repositioned her offer to serve daughters of immigrant entrepreneurs—bringing together her somatic expertise, her decade in tech and startups selling future visions to C-suite executives, and her identity as a daughter of immigrants.The result? Eunice booked 10 high-ticket clients in just 3 months, raised her prices by 60%, and has remained fully booked for months ever since. She's now on an active thought leadership campaign, collaborating on aligned platforms that need her expertise.In this episode, you'll hear the story of how she found product market fit, booked out quickly, and continues to grow sustainably.✨ Reclamation doors open Wednesday October 1st at 3pm PST!Apply here to join the mastermind. If you apply in the first 48 hours, you'll also receive a Book Out Without Burnout Strategy Call with me.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik speaks with psychotherapist and reclamation coach Joshua Dvorkin about rebuilding identity after seismic change—chronic illness, disability, injury, or any life detour. Joshua shares a practical, trauma-informed path he calls “resilience without romanticism”: acknowledge reality, stabilize body and mind, rewrite your narrative with compassion and truth, live by your values, and grow forward. We get into belief frameworks, a seven-column thought record for reframing negative thinking, and how high-achievers can accept support without losing self-respect. If you or your team are navigating tough transitions, this conversation offers clear tools, not clichés—so you can reclaim authorship without abandoning your authentic self. About the guest: Joshua Dvorkin is a psychotherapist, reclamation coach, and founder of Headway Mental Health. After a spinal cord injury at 29, he rebuilt his life and now helps professionals and leaders reclaim identity with grounded, trauma-informed practices—no toxic positivity, no fluff. Key takeaways: Reclamation starts with reality acceptance: name the loss without minimizing it, then decide what you will do next. Use a values inventory to reconnect with identity: what you stood for before likely still matters now. Try a seven-column thought record (CBT): capture situation, automatic thought, emotions, evidence for/against, balanced thought, and re-rate feelings. Replace “bounce back fast” with resilience without romanticism: healing has no fixed timeline. Language shapes outcomes: beliefs about worthiness influence choices, relationships, and perceived possibilities. For high-achievers, receiving help is a skill: letting others show up for you can expand impact, not reduce autonomy. Micro-practice: each morning, name one feeling, one non-negotiable value, and one aligned micro-action. Repeat for 7 days. Model inclusion for kids and teams: visible adaptations can teach empathy, capability, and respect. Boundary-led living: decisions aligned with values reduce anxiety and clarify the next right step. Leaders: stabilize body, mind, and emotions first; strategy is stronger on solid ground.

What if booking out isn't your goal but you still want to increase your revenue?Or what if you can't technically "book out" because you're an agency owner or service provider who already has team members or subcontractors that allow you to take on as many clients as you want?For some of my clients, booking out looks like raising their prices so they can double their profit without adding more calls or client delivery to their calendar. For others, it's streamlining their team and capacity to serve more clients.The truth is, booking out can look different for everyone — and it doesn't have to mean exhaustion, over-delivery, or delivering offers that no longer fit your future vision.In this episode, I'm sharing four ways Thought Leadership Marketing will help you increase your income — without tripling your workload. These are the exact pathways my Reclamation clients have used to move from six to multi-six figures while staying aligned with the business they actually want to run.✨ In this episode, I'll share:Why raising your prices isn't just about believing you're worth moreHow third-party credibility builds trust so clients say yes fasterWhy org contracts are more accessible than you thinkThe connection between thought leadership, retention, and referralsHow paid speaking and workshops open doors to higher-ticket opportunitiesAnd because women of color are naturally thought leaders because we created what we once needed, Thought Leadership Marketing is available to you now. And it can help you make 6 to multiple six figures and beyond while remaining true to your values and making a deep impact. And that's exactly what I'll be teaching at my upcoming workshop on Oct 1st: Make 6 to Multi-6 Figures While Posting Less Through Thought Leadership Marketing Register here for the workshopLearn more about Reclamation Mastermind

Negotiators representing seven states, 30 tribes, and Mexico are running out of time to agree on new rules to guide sharing of Colorado River water before a federally mandated deadline next fall. Failure to do so would forfeit water allocation authority to the Bureau of Reclamation, and costly state and tribal litigation would be argued before the U.S. Supreme Court. Potable water supply for much of the West is not all that's at stake in managing demands on the river's supply. “Deadpool” levels in the reservoirs at Lake Powell and Lake Mead would result in inability of the Glen Canyon and Hoover Dams to generate hydropower. The establishment of new post-2026 operating guidelines among the river's competing stakeholders is a complex undertaking, consuming much of the region's attention and effort. However, an analysis published last week by six leading scholars in the basin warns that immediate, substantial action to conserve water is needed. Their study suggests that if the coming year's patterns of water supply and use mirror past years, then by the time any hard-won new guidelines are in place, the basin may already be in serious trouble. In this episode, study author Kathryn Sorensen and water policy expert Sarah Porter provide perspectives on the near-term science, human behavior, and potential solutions relating to conditions around the Colorado River.

Send us a textNote: Audio Only, See YouTube for Video VersionSometimes the best adventures come from unexpected detours. When bad weather derailed my plans to summit Mount Elbert, I discovered the hidden gem of Interlaken Trail near Leadville, Colorado – a 5-mile journey that transports hikers through time to a preserved "ghost resort" nestled along Twin Lakes.The trail offers stunning views of Mount Elbert (Colorado's highest peak) before arriving at the historic Interlaken resort complex. The crown jewel is the Dexter Cabin, an impressive Victorian-era house complete with multiple bedrooms, sitting areas, and a distinctive cupola offering 360-degree views of the surrounding mountains and lakes. Walking through its rooms, you can almost feel the presence of the wealthy visitors who once vacationed here during Colorado's mining boom.Founded in 1879 by Mr. Staley and later purchased by Mr. Dexter, this resort once represented mountain luxury at its finest. Guests enjoyed steamboat rides on Twin Lakes, billiards, and various outdoor activities on the expansive grounds. The resort's decline came with Mr. Dexter's death in 1899, but its buildings have been remarkably preserved. In the 1970s, the Bureau of Reclamation saved the structures by moving them to higher ground when developing Twin Lakes as a water storage reservoir – the original foundations now lie somewhere beneath the water's surface.Beyond the main cabin, the site includes barns, bathhouses (surprisingly equipped with leather seats), and smaller outbuildings that help complete the picture of this once-bustling resort. The entire hike takes about three hours round trip, making it perfect for history enthusiasts and outdoor lovers alike who want to experience a fascinating piece of Colorado's past.Give this video a thumbs up if you enjoyed exploring this hidden historical treasure with me, and subscribe to join more adventures where the unexpected often becomes the highlight of the journey!Support the show

In this powerful episode of Real Native Roots: Untold Stories, Vickie sits down with Shoshoni Hostler—a Yurok regalia maker, therapist, mother of five, and fashion designer whose viral shell dress stunned the world and sparked powerful conversations about cultural reclamation, representation, and resistance. From her Northern California homelands, Shoshoni shares what it means to create wearable memory and how every shell, stitch, and silhouette becomes ceremony. With 26 traditional dresses to her name, she is one of the most prolific dressmakers of her tribe. But her work goes far beyond the runway—Shoshoni leads multimillion-dollar behavioral health initiatives, mentors Native youth through her “Dragonfly People” project, and walks boldly in two worlds with both humility and fire. Together, Vickie and Shoshoni explore: The medicine of regalia and the spirit of the dress The unlearning of shame and reclaiming of Indigenous beauty Navigating lateral violence in Native spaces Why “not everyone can wear it, but everyone can feel it” And how brushing it off—literally—is ancestral wellness This episode is a love letter to Native women's power, creativity, and unapologetic presence in every space—from the ceremony to the spotlight. #RealNativeRoots #UntoldStories #ShoshoniHostler #IndigenousFashion #RegaliaMaker #YurokStrong #NativeCreatives #WearableMedicine #ShellDress #CulturalReclamation #NativeFashionWeek #IndigenousBeauty #MatriarchMagic #SnakeEaterStrength #BeadworkAndHealing #NARA #DragonflyPeople #NativeVoices #IndigenousArtistry #HealingIsBeautiful #RepresentationMatters

I didn't grow a multi-six figure business because I changed my offers. I did it because I changed how I held my business—and myself.In this episode, I'm walking you through the real, unglamorous shifts that helped me go from a 150K year to consistent 20K months in private coaching—before ever switching to a group model. These are the exact mindset, nervous system, and identity shifts I've seen take people out of business if they don't happen.And I get it. In 2021, I expected the success of my first six-figure year to continue. What I didn't realize was that without healing, support, and emotional maturity, I couldn't hold it. I got isolated, overstimulated, and my undiagnosed ADHD left me stuck in shame. But everything changed in the last 2 months of that year—and I want to show you what made that shift possible.You'll hear me talk about:What allowed me to go from 70K in 10 months… to 80K in 2Why therapy and emotional processing—not just mindset work—kept me in businessHow shame and hyper-independence can sound logical but sabotage your growthWhy getting a job isn't a failure, and how I reframed safetyThe moment I stopped asking my business to rescue me from my feelingsSix shifts that changed my leadership, capacity, and revenue foreverIf you're stuck, rushing, or on the edge of burnout… this episode is your lifeline.Work with me: → Apply for private coaching.

Send us a textEver feel like you're trapped on a merry-go-round of social expectations, beauty standards, and external validation? You're not alone. The greatest struggle facing humanity today isn't about politics or economics—it's about reclaiming our authentic selves from the matrix that's programmed us since birth.This powerful episode dives deep into the concept of personal reclamation—the journey back to who we truly are beneath the masks. Through vulnerable personal stories about gray hair, artificial nails, and the pressure to conform, Theresa Marie reveals how easily we can slip back into matrix patterns even when we think we're awake. She explores how comparison (literally "compare-sin") pulls us away from our truth and how the wilderness of authenticity, though sometimes lonely, provides the deepest connection to our true selves."An individual who is rooted in their inner self is always blissful," says Swami Dehan Gittin—but how many of us can claim this rootedness when we're constantly shape-shifting to please others? The matrix has convinced us that acceptance comes through conformity, that our natural aging process should be fought rather than embraced, and that our worth depends on fitting into predetermined boxes. These are lies that keep us frustrated, disconnected, and searching for that elusive "something" we can't quite name.The path forward requires courage—courage to venture into the wilderness, to stand alone in your truth if necessary, and to recognize that "to be yourself in a world constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." What part of yourself will you reclaim today? Your truest self is waiting for you to come home.Support the show

What does intimacy look like when you're autistic, ADHD, and healing from trauma? In this powerful episode of Mental Health News Radio, host Kristin Sunanta Walker sits down with Candice Christiansen (she/they)—licensed clinical mental health counselor, autistic ADHD adult, and founder of the Namasté Center for Healing—to explore the complex terrain of neurodivergent intimacy, betrayal trauma, sensory sex, and emotional reclamation. Candice shares her late-diagnosis journey, her healing partnership with a neurodivergent spouse, and the sacred truth of what it takes to cultivate safe, embodied, and attuned connection—emotionally, sexually, and spiritually. Together, they unpack common struggles faced by autistic adults: hypersensitivity, shutdown during sex, fawning, energetic overload, and the grief of misdiagnosis. This is not your typical conversation about relationships—this is soul-deep, nuance-rich, and paradigm-shifting. If you've ever wondered why sex feels overwhelming or how to reclaim it on your own terms...If you've been told you're “too sensitive” or “too much”...If you're healing from betrayal and trying to rebuild trust inside your body...This episode is for you.Disclaimer: This episode contains candid discussions about sex, intimacy, and trauma—particularly in the context of neurodivergent experiences and sexual abuse recovery. Listener discretion is advised.About the Guest: Candice Christiansen (she/they) is the Founder and Clinical Director of Namasté Center for Healing based in Millcreek, Utah. A licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC), Certified Sex Addiction Therapist-Supervisor (CSAT‑S), and psychedelic-assisted therapist (PAT), Candice specializes in working with autistic, ADHD, and trauma-impacted individuals and couples around betrayal recovery, sensory intimacy, and sacred sexuality.

Episode Summary: Join Lisa for a powerful live coaching session with client "Sarah" as they tackle one of the most common patterns Lisa sees in high-achievers: internally generating stress and anxiety before anything bad has even happened. In this intimate behind-the-scenes look at coaching in action, you'll witness a complete transformation from catastrophic thinking to anticipating the best.What You'll Learn:The Anxiety Trap That's Keeping You StuckWhy we catastrophize as a protection mechanism (and why it backfires)How anticipating disaster actually robs you of energy and joyThe difference between trying to control outcomes vs. trusting yourself to handle whatever comesThe Body-Mind ConnectionWhy your brain might say "I'm fine" while your body stays in fight-or-flightSimple nervous system regulation techniques you can use anywhereThe power of breath work to signal safety to your bodyFrom Survival to Thriving: A Step-by-Step ApproachSarah's personalized action plan for overcoming anxiety patternsThe HALT check-in: Managing Hungry, Angry/Anxious, Lonely, TiredHow to shift from "I'll be okay" to "I can anticipate the best"The Paradox of High-Achievers:Lisa reveals why her most successful clients often struggle with this pattern: "My clients are all survivors. They've always landed on their feet... Yet they're the same people that fundamentally are afraid they're not going to be okay if something happens."Practical Tools You Can Use Today:The Pre-Event Reset:Take 2 minutes before challenging situationsPractice visualization of your ideal outcomeUse grounding techniques (feet on floor, name 5 things you can see)Daily Evidence Collection:Journal about good things that happened each dayNotice how many catastrophized scenarios never occurredBuild a mental database of "everything working out for me"Breath Work Basics:Box breathing patternsSlow exhales to activate the parasympathetic nervous systemUse breath awareness to return to presenceThe Worthiness Component:Sarah's breakthrough moment: "It's okay for me to anticipate the best... because I'm worthy of it as opposed to I need to earn it."If this episode resonated with you, you might be ready for the kind of deep, transformational work Lisa does with her clients. Many successful people find themselves stuck in patterns of internal stress generation despite having "everything figured out" on the outside.Ready to explore coaching? Lisa has openings this summer and fall for both individual sessions and her Reclamation program. Links to connect are in the episode description.Remember: You don't have to earn your worthiness. You were born worthy of anticipating the best.
This episode is personal. It's a confession.After doing this work for nearly a decade… after witnessingthe power of erotic energy transform lives—including my own. I still shut off my own turn-on.It happened after I released a man from my life.Not consciously, but deeply, subtly… I closed the door to my own pleasure.And maybe you've done this too. Maybe you used to feel sexy, alive, radiant and somewhere along the way, it disappeared. You buried it. You convinced yourself you didn't need it. You got busy. You got hurt. You got tired.But I get it. I really get it.Because knowing the work isn't always enough.We can know and still numb.Still fear. Still doubt. Still carry the shame.But this new layer of awareness?It changes everything.It deepens the power behind this work.The transmission of erotic energy isn't just sexyIt's sacred. It's transformational.This is why I'm so passionate about helping women reclaimit.Because your true power?It's in your erotic energy.It's in your pleasure.It's in the parts of you you've been taught to shut down.And it's time to turn it back on.

We are back on the road this week for an exciting visit with Emily Morris, CEO and Founder, and Tom Cuthbert, CTO, of Emrgy. Our team traveled to one of Emrgy's hydropower facilities on Colorado's Front Range to see their technology up close and in action before sitting down for a hydropower focused discussion. Emily founded Emrgy in 2014 and brings 15 years of experience in emerging hard tech development. Before launching Emrgy, she managed multi-million dollar federal contracts at AMT, bringing innovative technologies from ideation to commercialization. Tom joined Emrgy in 2020 after serving in several leadership roles at GE, most recently as CTO of Energy Storage for GE Renewable Energy. He has more than 20 years of experience in technology development across the automotive, rail, and energy sectors. Emrgy delivers low-cost power generation through innovative hardware and software that integrates seamlessly into existing water infrastructure. The company enables their customers to monetize previously unrealized energy assets, without anchoring or modifying their infrastructure. We were thrilled to visit with Emily and Tom and see Emrgy's technology in action. In our conversation, we discuss the current state of hydropower, including the regulatory and environmental challenges near federally protected natural waterways and the shift from traditional to modern approaches. Emily shares the origin of Emrgy's technology and its evolution from a defense application to commercial energy. Tom details Emrgy's hydrokinetic turbines, which can be deployed in existing water infrastructure with minimal impact and high adaptability. We explore the vast water infrastructure network and market opportunity, with over two million miles of canals globally, along with recent advances in power electronics and regulations that enable deployment. We explore the environmental and operational advantages of hydropower, the predictable power output made possible by controlled water flows, and applications across rural and urban water infrastructure. We cover Emrgy's dual monetization model (power generation and water conservation), project economics, cost-reduction targets, and speed-to-market advantages. We discuss regulatory pathways, including engagement with the Bureau of Reclamation and local water districts, incentives from the OBBB and other federal programs, and the market opportunity within aging water infrastructure. We also examine the speed of deployment and preference for incremental rollouts, interest from hyperscalers driven by power and water needs, permitting challenges near federally protected waterways, the benefits of co-locating with water infrastructure, and the advantages of innovating as a small company versus large incumbents. We end by taking a look at Emrgy's technology and discussing the rising value of water, hydropower's potential to generate hundreds of megawatts of renewable baseload power, the growing importance of decentralized energy systems near load centers, the long-term outlook, and more. We greatly enjoyed the discussion. Mike Bradley kicked things off by noting that bond markets are trading sideways this week after a tumultuous week last week, which saw a Nonfarm Payrolls report print well below expectations and sent bond yields plummeting (10-year yield trading today at 4.2%). On the broader U.S. equity market front, the S&P 500 seems to be meandering so far this week after last week's Nonfarm Payrolls report pushed it down a couple of percent. While most of the Mag 7 Big Tech companies have reported Q2 results, plenty of S&P 500 companies still have earnings to release. Turning to energy equities, most Oil Service Companies have reported Q2 results, and 2H25 guidance has been adjusted lower, mostly due to rising service cost deflation. This week's energy earnings will be concentrated on E&Ps, Midstream, and Electric Utilities. Mike also highlighted Brookfield's $6 bil

In this candid and moving conversation, host Javier Proenza sits down with Los Angeles-based artist Dena Novak, whose sculptural paintings and ceramics challenge the rigid codes of minimalism through what she calls “aggressive feminism.” Drawing from a rich personal archive of experience—one shaped by Orthodox Judaism, motherhood, neurodivergence, and trauma—Novak's work reimagines historically male-dominated art historical tropes with unapologetic sensuality and material intensity. A recent recipient of the Simon Gad Foundation Award and an MFA candidate at Otis College of Art and Design, Novak shares how a life-altering diagnosis of autism at age 50 reshaped her understanding of herself, her past, and her artistic practice. Her tactile impasto paintings, often described as “candy-colored” and “irresistibly edible,” subvert the pristine aesthetic of artists like John McCracken, replacing “fetish finish” with riotous layers of piped oil paint. As she explains, “The first response people say when they see my work is, ‘I want to touch it. I want to smell it. I want to eat it.'” The conversation traces Novak's evolution from a punk activist in Chicago to a ceramicist “boxing with Pollock,” and unpacks her years spent in Orthodox communities in Israel and Los Angeles, where gendered restrictions collided with a creative urgency that could not be contained. Today, her practice is a full-throated reclamation of space—for herself, for disabled artists, and for queer, neurodivergent joy. Upcoming exhibitions include her MFA thesis show at Otis College (September 2025) and a group exhibition will support the Simon Gad Foundation's work with disabled artists. Explore more:
Welcome to the Special Edition of The Inspired Action Life Podcast specially curated Meditation for Midlife Transformation and Reclamation of the true authetic life that we actually do want but never pursued because we put others before ourselves. It's finally our time to reconnect with your authentic self and trust your intuion and reclaim the life you were born to live. Have you ever felt like you just walked into the life you used to dream about? This meditation was born from a moment like that—a sacred threshold where everything I'd journaled, visualized, and quietly hoped for… actually showed up. Not through force or hustle. But through allowing. Through trusting divine timing. Through unbecoming everything I thought I “had to be”… and remembering the version of me that was always there. This is a guided affirmation practice to anchor you into the energy of receiving what you once prayed for. It's especially powerful for women in midlife, those reconnecting with their intuition, and anyone exploring the deeper truths of who they really are—outside of old programming and expectations. Affirmations: “The Portal Has Opened” I am living inside the dream I once wrote down. I am no longer chasing. I am attracting, receiving, responding. My life has risen to meet my vision, and I am ready to sustain it. What I desire is orbiting me now, and I welcome it with ease. I trust divine timing. I trust my sacral response. I trust the rhythm. Every sign is confirmation. Every synchronicity is guidance. I am worthy of a life that feels this good—consistently. I hold the frequency of my dream life, even when it's quiet. I am magnetic. I am open. I am already inside the life I once prayed for. Inspired by Human Design principles, this practice reminds you to trust your sacral authority, respond from alignment, and live the life that was always meant for you. Inside this episode: A short, powerful visualization to anchor your new reality Affirmations to align with the frequency of your dream life A sacred reminder: You're not starting over—you're reclaiming Why midlife is the perfect time to remember who you really are An invitation to return to your 6-year-old self… the version of you before the world asked you to dim Whether you're in a season of receiving or still in the sacred pause—this meditation will remind you: What you desire is already orbiting you. It's not too late. It's right on time. And it's already yours. Want to go deeper? I'm gathering a small group of like-hearted women who want to stay present, aligned, and supported as they reconnect with their true essence. Think of it as a lifestyle community for the soul—rooted in expansion, emotional safety, and self-trust. If this meditation landed for you, I'd love to share more. DM me on Instagram [@inspiredaction_life] with the word PORTAL, and I'll personally send you bonus free Human Design Test and Answer Key, updates, and invitations to join us. or go to our website EVENTS & WORKHOPS | kbaldridge Let this be your moment of reclamation.

Daughters of immigrant entrepreneurs need more than business strategy, and this episode will show you why.In this deeply moving conversation, I talk with my Reclamation client Eunice Kimian, a somatic business coach who grew up in a Korean immigrant household where silence, emotional suppression, and over-responsibility were the norm.We talk about what it meant for her to start her business from scratch while healing—without abandoning her culture, her family, or herself.Eunice shares how choosing softness felt like the biggest risk, how her somatic work created enough safety to even have a vision, and why it matters that daughters of immigrants have access to mentors who understand the emotional cost of being “high functioning.”✨ And as Eunice says: “We're not taught to listen to ourselves… it's not just about strategy. It's about helping people hear themselves again.”This conversation is a reminder that for daughters of immigrants, healing and business aren't separate—and strategy alone is never the full answer.
What if the very emotions you were taught to suppress - rage, grief, desire - were actually the keys to your freedom? In this raw and liberating episode of Tami Talks: Unscripted Healing, Sarah Pittz and I dive deep into the sacred power of healing the inner child to awaken the sovereign woman within. Because when you tend to the wounds of the little girl inside, the woman you were always meant to be can finally rise. We explore: How suppressed rage becomes sacred fire Why gratitude, when weaponized, can block true desire The feminine's reclaiming of power, voice, and visibility How healing childhood wounds unlocks creativity & confidence Nature is a mirror and medicine for your soul When you heal, your children feel it too Disappointment does not equal abandonment Feminine energy isn't weak. It's wildly powerful This one's for the woman who's done shrinking herself to be “grateful.” The one who's tired of holding it all in. The one ready to rise.

In this episode of Positive Philter, I sit down with my fraternity brother, Frank Bonner, for a candid discussion on the topic of reclamation within Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. We explore the reasons why some brothers struggle with sustained engagement and the barriers to bringing them back into active participation. While our conversation centers on Alpha, these issues are relevant to many service-based organizations working to re-engage and retain members. Through personal experiences and reflections, we examine how organizations can better support long-term involvement and active membership.

After a botchy IG Live when I couldn't SEE Esin, this was delicious to LOOK into her beautiful eyes and connect heart to heart. Erin is a Holistic Psychologist, LCSW, Addiction Professional, and Relationship Expert. We dove right into our shared experiences of Female Friendship & Betrayal. While many think breaking up with a boyfriend or husband is intense… we both agreed that the heartbreak of female friendship betrayals and the pain of sisterhood ruptures can be even more intense… perhaps because you don't see them coming. We both opened up about how early family roles and codependent tendencies and how that has shaped our adult relationships, and how needing constant reassurance or connection with others can lead to losing a sense of self. It was so nourishing to connect with Esin about the complexities of therapeutic relationships, how deeply intimate and soul-connected they can become, and the struggle to maintain healthy boundaries without losing authenticity or care. We both have historically over-given to clients at the cost of our own well-being. I shared how my mentors have taught me self-first care vs. selfless care, and how time off and new practices like a month's sabbatical in Spain, flamenco dancing is helping me reclaim joy and balance. As two single women, we highlighted the importance of building friendships and romantic relationships outside of work and stop over-relying on our careers for fulfillment. We lovingly challenged each other to actively create more space for personal relationships and fun. I shared a playfully structured approach with ways I'm reparenting my inner self—including having “dinner” with her inner masculine and feminine, and putting a cardboard Jason Mamoa in my home to prompt sensual self-practices! (Decided on the poster, not the full-size cardboard after all xox) Our conversation was deeply personal, with both of us modeling vulnerability, acknowledging our wounds, and laughing through the shared journey of learning to love and care for ourselves more fully. Some bumper sticker takeaways include..."If I avoid love, I avoid pain. But if I avoid pain, I also avoid love.” "We don't want to dismantle codependency in a way where we demonize it—we just want to harness it differently.” "The source of my wholeness needs to come from inside-out, not outside-in." This episode is a beautiful, raw, and deeply human exploration of the messy, courageous journey of reclaiming self-worth, intimacy, and joy—especially for those, like Esin and I, who help others for a living. It's a reminder that even the most evolved coaches and therapists are still growing, too. ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

In this powerful episode, we explore what it really means to break free from the “good girl prison” and reclaim the wild, sensual, embodied self that lives within all of us. Topics of Conversation: ✨ Why people are so triggered by the presence of a sensual, embodied woman and how those triggers are actually invitations to growth. ✨ How judgment can reveal your next edge and why the best teachers might trigger you. ✨ Her inspiring story and the creation of her studio that doesn't fit in any box - where self-reclamation, sisterhood, and sensual movement meet. ✨ The magic of her 6-foot round sensory mats (yes, they're as incredible as they sound) and the signature slow and wild movement method. ✨ The power of moving beyond rigid, linear movement practices into something fluid, freeing, and deeply feminine. ✨ The 10 themes of self-reclamation explored in her Slow & Wild method: Body, Voice, Time, Space, Intuition, Sensuality, Sexuality, Spirituality, Passion, Desire. ✨ The balance of Alpha/Omega and masculine/feminine dynamics and how this transforms relationships. ✨ And yes—we talk about her Dirty Vanilla Parties (part workshop, part sex-ed, part dance party!) “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field—meet me there.” - Rumi ✨ Links + Resources Slow & Wild Studios Dirty Vanilla Parties Slow & Wild on Instagram Book recommendation: Unbound
Today's guest is Adé Carrena, chef and founder of Dounou Cuisine culinary project and the iLéWA Foods spice blend company. A native of Bénin, Adé was adopted at the age of 10 and grew up with a Puerto Rican family in Connecticut. Today, she calls Raleigh, North Carolina, home, and she's been on a journey of reclamation ever since, raising her daughter, pivoting from banking to culinary, launching her businesses, and reconnecting with her birth mother. In 2023, she was named North Carolina Chef of the Year. Adé joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her childhood, becoming a mother, and life in Raleigh. They also discuss her most recent project, a documentary titled “Bite of Bénin,” that details her story. Adé calls herself “a bridge, a dreamer, a healer, a chef, a storyteller, and a nurturer.” At the core, it's all about heart, she says. Click here for tickets for our Summer Tastemaker Tour.

Shownotes Why relational work has the ability to heal things that solo work can't How to be fully present with what's true in the moment Why deeper inquiry into yourself is at the heart of the spiritual journey The beautiful thing about disintegration and why it's so important Why hiding your power creates disarray Tom's top advice for connecting with yourself on a deeper level Bio From a young age, Tom Slater sought to learn through direct experience, a path that has taken him across the globe, immersing himself in many traditional and indigenous cultures. His quest to understand himself and the life he was experiencing led him to explore the very nature of his existence, often guiding him down challenging paths, including struggles with addiction and depression. Through this deep exploration, Tom gradually opened up to a more profound connection with his own humanity, confronting the limitations that prevented him from fully feeling and embracing it. His personal journey has taught him invaluable lessons, enabling him to be present with others in a spontaneous and creative way, facilitating their own process of discovery. Tom's work, particularly through The Sapience Retreat, focuses on helping individuals integrate all aspects of their being – mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual – in a way that fosters a true sense of homecoming, both within themselves and in connection with others. At the heart of his approach is cultivating an open awareness and a deep sense of choice, empowering people to show up more fully and authentically in life.
