Manifestation isn't broken, you just need better tools.In this episode, Mia Magik joins me to flip the script on everything you think you know about creating the life you want. Forget the vision boards for a second. Mia's approach is rooted in healing, not just hoping. She explains why manifesting love starts with examining where you're being unloving, and why calling in abundance means looking at your scarcity patterns.We discuss the physical toll of consuming true crime and drama-filled content, the proven science of water holding intention, and simple kitchen rituals that turn your daily routine into a manifestation practice. Mia also opens up about her own journey through relationship struggles, self-betrayal, and finding her way back to her power through some seriously uncomfortable inner work.This conversation touches on the Sacred Rage Ritual, why women's anger is revolutionary, and Mia's current explorations with Tantra as a tool for understanding power, surrender, and healing. Whether you're new to manifestation or your practice has gone stale, this episode offers practical wisdom you can use today.Connect with Mia: https://miamagik.com/Mia on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/miamagik/Link to sign up for Mia's Retreats: https://miamagik.com/2025retreatrooms/Link to purchase Mia's book: IntuWitchinConnect with Sabrina:https://www.instagram.com/Sabrina_Soto/www.SabrinaSoto.com

Pregnancy doesn't always go the way you imagined it would. For my dear friend and fellow SMBC, Mel Anderson, what began with excitement quickly turned into one of the hardest seasons of her life. Instead of hiking and practicing yoga through her pregnancy as she had envisioned, Mel faced hyperemesis: severe nausea and vomiting that left her unable to care for herself, barely able to eat or drink, and often confined to the bathroom floor.⚠️Before we dive in, a gentle heads up: this episode includes a detailed discussion of hyperemesis and the mental health struggles that can come with a difficult pregnancy. If you're feeling particularly anxious about pregnancy, this might not be the right episode for you. And if you're currently in the middle of a hard pregnancy yourself, please know there is relief and joy on the other side (which you'll hear about in the next episode, in which we'll continue with Mel's story).In this deeply vulnerable conversation, Mel shares what it was really like to go through pregnancy without a partner while navigating a condition that tested her body, her mental health, and her spirit. From the heartbreak of canceled embryo transfers to the unexpected challenges of her pregnancy, her story is raw, honest, and important.If you're considering solo motherhood, pregnant yourself, or simply want to know you're not alone in facing a difficult path, this conversation will remind you that strength can grow even in the hardest places.In this episode on Mel's story about her pregnancy without a partner, we discuss:Mel's path to becoming a single mother by choice after ambivalence about having children in her younger years;How Mel's relationship history played into the decision;Being diagnosed with hyperemesis and how it shaped her pregnancy;Mental health struggles and learning to advocate for herself in the medical system;The critical role of support during a high-risk pregnancy as a solo mom;Why sharing the hard stories matters just as much as sharing the joyful ones;And more.

Let none think that Satan retreats from his prey without resolve to return. He is tireless in his malice and relentless in his schemes. The evil spirit, finding no rest, returns to the soul it once occupied, and finding it empty—brings with him a company more wicked than himself. Thus the last state becomes worse than the first. Here Christ shows us the desperate folly of resting in temporary deliverance without seeking lasting union with himself. It is not enough to expel sin; it must be replaced with righteousness. It is not enough to cast out the devil; the Spirit of Christ must dwell within.

Ever wonder what makes business retreats so transformative compared to conferences or online courses? In this compelling conversation with Jodi Halstead, owner of Ireland Family Vacations and host of the Traveling in Ireland podcast, we uncover the magical elements that turn business retreats into catalysts for growth and renewal.Jodi shares her experience at the Insiders Retreat, describing how these intimate gatherings create what she calls "hallway conversations all the time" – those valuable, unscripted moments of connection that entrepreneurs crave. "The power of a retreat comes from being around other people who are in a similar situation," she explains. "Being around smart women who are looking to do things similar to you, who you can bounce ideas off and help with – it revives you."We explore the phenomenon of breakthrough moments that happen during retreats, which Jodi compares to witnessing an eclipse: "It's just like these lightbulbs turn on, but they're so powerful and you can see the adrenaline and the thoughts... it's like this stone rolling down a hill, it starts off slow and then all of a sudden it picks up speed and bam, it's right there." These transformational shifts happen when entrepreneurs find clarity and excitement for their business again, especially after experiencing periods of uncertainty or burnout.Perhaps most importantly, we address the hesitation many women entrepreneurs feel about attending retreats. As Jodi points out, "We're not afraid to step away from our business. We're afraid to step away from everything else because we are the plate spinner and if we're not there spinning the plates, they're going to fall." Yet with proper planning, taking this time for focused business growth isn't just possible – it's essential for breaking through to new levels of success.Ready to experience your own business breakthrough?

They also dive into frustrating vendor experiences, the evolving role of AI agents in design work, and a hot take on whether being barefoot in brand photos is ever appropriate.In the second half of the episode, they debate the ethics, emotional labor, and financial risks that come with sourcing, receiving, and delivering furniture—especially when imperfections, shipping issues, and miscommunications arise. They also explore how one small branding detail like footwear in photos can signal so much about professionalism, identity, and client expectations.In this episode they discuss:Rebecca's design retreat: goals, structure, productivity, and what she accomplished (brand strategy guide, website refresh)The importance of having external accountability (“show and tell” among designer friends) to push projects forwardChallenges working with vendors and receiving warehouses: damaged goods, imperfect manufacturing, inspection failures, and the cost (financial & emotional) of fixing themWhy healthy project and product margins are non-negotiable in design to absorb unexpected costsThe rise of AI agents in business: potential, limitations, risks (data access, automation gone wrong)The debate on brand photo styling: barefoot vs shoes, what each choice communicates about professionalism and personal brandReflections on aging, style evolution, and gaps in the market (e.g. men's clothing quality and age-appropriateness)Mentioned:The Airbnb Rebecca stayed in for her retreathttps://formandfield.com/work/donner-lake-cabinRebecca worked on her brand guide based on ideas from Renee Bush from Tandem.

Are you settling for a “make it work” marriage when you could build an extraordinary one?Most couples drift into survival mode—roommates, not lovers—because they've never seen an amazing marriage modeled… and no one taught them the skills. In this episode, Greg & Rachel Denning share how to raise your marriage standard, resolve conflict fast (the “anatomy of an argument”), and build a shared vision that turns everyday life into marital bliss—without pretending problems don't exist.Big idea: If you're not deliberately working on your marriage, you're automatically working on your divorce.You'll learn how to stop the same old fights, praise small efforts to reinforce positive change, schedule what matters (yes, intimacy!), and use the compound effect to transform your relationship. Whether things are tough or “fine,” these tools help you move from okay → incredible so your kids grow up with healthy models of love.What you'll learnRaise the standard: Why “make it work” is too low a target—and how high expectations create more happiness.Anatomy of an argument: Resolve conflicts quickly (not fake fixes) and stop weaponizing old grievances.Shared vision: Practical steps to get on the same page even if personalities and goals differ.Reinforce progress: Praise small attempts (date night invites, thoughtful gestures) so they happen more often.Schedule what matters: How planning creates space for connection & intimacy—instead of constant friction.Compound effect: The habits you invest in today build your legacy tomorrow.Key Takeaways✅ If you aren't intentionally improving your marriage, you're unintentionally degrading it.✅ High standards produce higher joy and better outcomes.✅ Conflict ≠ contention—you can disagree respectfully and resolve fast.✅ Model love for your kids by prioritizing the relationship at home.✅ Small, consistent actions compound into an extraordinary marriage.Chapters00:00 The Importance of Marriage02:56 From Mediocre to Extraordinary05:53 Setting High Expectations for Marriage08:25 Conflict Resolution in Marriage11:51 Self-Sabotage in Relationships16:43 Creating Mental Space for Intimacy18:16 The Importance of Retreats for Couples18:49 Investing in Marriage: The Compounding Effect20:28 Breaking Generational Patterns in Relationships22:17 Creating a Shared Vision for the Future22:44 Raising the Standard in Marriage24:36 The Role of Coaching in Relationship Growth27:04 The Value of Investing in Your MarriageMemorable Quotes

In this deeply inspiring episode, I sit down with David Hulse, a gifted spiritual guide, healer, and teacher whose journey from a fundamentalist Christian upbringing to an expansive, love-centred spirituality is nothing short of remarkable. David shares how a profound awakening reshaped his understanding of God—from an external, judgmental figure to the divine presence within each of us—and how this realization bridges ancient wisdom with modern science. Together, we explore releasing inherited beliefs that no longer serve us, the transformative power of “I AM” consciousness, and what it means to move from a 3D material perspective to a 5D heart-centred way of living. This conversation is a call to lightworkers everywhere to embrace their role as co-creators in humanity's awakening and a reminder that we are, at our core, love, light, and joy.About David HulseDavid Hulse is a seasoned spiritual guide, minister, author, and healer whose journey from a fundamentalist Christian upbringing to an inclusive, love-centred spirituality bridges traditional doctrine with contemporary insight. A profound awakening early in his life reshaped his understanding of divinity and revealed humanity's deep interconnectedness. As Founder and Spiritual Guide at the Academy for Spiritual Awakening, David blends wisdom from diverse traditions with modern science to inspire people to move beyond belief into direct experience of the divine within. His teachings challenge limiting dogmas, emphasize unconditional love and gnosis—direct knowledge from Source—and guide lightworkers through the shift from a 3D material world to a 5D heart-centred consciousness, empowering global spiritual evolution.Connect with Davide Hulse:Websites: davidhulse.comhttps://www.heartlightcharlotte.org/About Anita AdamsI'm Anita Adams, your host and the founder of Joyful Journey, an organization devoted to teaching The Wisdom Way—a practice that helps individuals reconnect with their authentic selves and create lives filled with meaning, well-being, and joy.
