You know that moment-- when you look around at your life--- and you secretly admit to yourself "this doesn't feel right anymore" or maybe you question "is this really who I am & then cringe to yourself 'no, it's not''".

These moments-- where everything that we've created suddenly feels off--- can invite us into a very dark space of death and uncertainty. As beautiful and transcendent as these moments can be--- the messy middles of transformation can be some of the rockiest waters to navigate.

So many spiritual voices talk about the beauty of being reborn-- of shedding the selves that no longer serve us---- however, when it's happening -- it can feel like you've been dunked under dark murky waters without a breathe, without a path and you may wonder how you're really going to get yourself through to another side.

Today, Stacey welcomes Essence Turner who is no stranger to leaning in to the experiences of spiritual and metaphorical death on this planet. A powerful healer, Essence shares her biggest journeys with death and rebirth and offers insights that not only helped her along the way, but can serve as breadcrumbs on your own journey.

Listen in as Stacey and Essence talk about:

the role of self-forgiveness in allowing yourself to change and let go (the most intense f-word out there)
how death and rebirth have their own unique timelines (and how to interpret and work with them)
the process of radical honesty (and processing feelings around your truths) that can lead the way forward
the places during these transformations where you can get stuck (and what to do instead)

Simplify Manifesting

Let's stop making manifesting a complicated spiritual endeavor that only a few get quite right in this lifetime.

Instead, let's make it more simple and get to the point of our desires and preferences in ways that also make time for the practicality of being a human on this planet (i.e. I need a nap and a delicious dinner today).

Stacey cuts right to the point in today's episode. Want to have more impact around your desires--- part of what's got to go is letting go of the 'trying'. Trying to make things happen really never quite works nor does what she calls "spiritual coercion".

Stacey shares personal examples of her own manifesting journey including . . . connecting with her husband (who was dating someone else at the time she knew he was her person) and smaller things like wanting to see a life-long friend who hasn't been in touch.

Simplify your process and let the miracles come to you. Listen in as Stacey shares exactly how to do this as a soul-ful human.

More about Stacey: Stacey is an intuitive coach who wants to help each person find the beauty and joy of a soul-ful and human life. Learn how to ditch the striving and hustle for your own natural rhythms of being human and find the path that only you know how to create on this planet. We've been taught a lot of rules and put in a lot of boxes-- set yourself free, now (no waiting required).

Being No Contact with Family feat. Kelly Backert

There's something that most people misunderstand about going no contact with a family member. And that is if somehow we just tried harder we could make it work. Because after all, it's your family.

For anyone who has made the difficult choice to go no contact with family, it can get even messier at the holidays (as most of the people around us don't get this boundary).

Stacey welcomes back Kelly Backert of Kore Bootcamps & Kore Barre & Yoga back to the show to talk about what it's like to be in a no contact relationship with family and how to navigate other people's judgment and misunderstandings.

Both Stacey and Kelly have experienced childhood abuse and made the decision to create very clear boundaries for their own well-being. Just as they spoke about being true to themselves in their last episode (Authentic Friendship), today is also about doing what is best for one's self-- even when no one else gets it.

Listen in as they talk about:

the role that spiritual practices play in making relationship decisions (and how even 'spiritual' beings can get tripped up in our closest relationships)
the decision to stop explaining choices they make (and how to truly do this when it's so hard)
the nuances of forgiveness and what it does/doesn't mean for being true to yourself
managing yourself during the holidays in ways that support your well-being (which may/may not include no contact)

More about Kelly: Kelly Backert is a Certified Personal Trainer and the owner of three fitness studios including Kore Bootcamps and Kore Barre & Yoga (Bel Air and Perry Hall). She is here to help us heal our relationships with food and body and find the place where we remember we are enough.

There is no diet or grueling exercise plan that needs to fix you---- Kelly will show you exactly how to do it differently.
