Loving Your Own Soul

Today we are joined by Hawaii’s Holly Kuzukawa in a reflection on her own journey to healing cystic acne and severe PCOS to her pregnancy journey that 2020 has blessed her with. Holly first came on the podcast earlier this year (Episode 13) where she went into detail about her healing journey and strict Medical Medium protocols she’s followed for several years. Today’s episode opens up her second phase of her journey and Medical Medium protocols as her body has proved its strength and new health in her ability to get pregnant!

Through her own experiences and following the Medical Medium principles, Holly has learned how to tap into her body and truly honor what she needs or doesn’t need and carries those experiences with her, as she now intuitively nourishes herself and the beautiful little girl she is growing inside of her. Holly was so honest in this episode she opened up about her not so great experience with the first trimester, including days of extreme fatigue, nausea, and weakness that lasted for weeks on end. Luckily the veil has lifted and her second trimester has been a much more beautiful, calm, and empowering experience as her intuition and connection to nature has strengthened in so many ways throughout this journey. Holly reflects on her own unique journey through pregnancy making note of how different each of us truly are, that it’s okay to talk about both the good and bad days, and the underlying power of looking to yourself for the most beneficial answers for you and your needs.

In listening to this episode, it is important to consult with your medical professional before making any drastic lifestyle or diet changes. It is also crucial to remember that we are all unique beings and we should only be nourishing our bodies with the nutrients that make sense to our own individual needs.

• Journey through an initial PCOS diagnosis and at one time being labeled infertile
• The power of our bodies and healing through plants

• Relationships and the balance of taking time to heal on individual levels
• The evolution of Holly’s relationship with food and living a Medical Medium lifestyle

Today we are joined by Hellenistic Astrologer Kate Greenfield for an in-depth conversation to better understand the why behind the practice of astrology and its presence in human existence since the beginning of time. Katie provides such a wonderful look into the history of astrology and the difference between the traditional and modern practices, the relativity to not only astronomy but philosophy too, and its influence on our physical worlds. As we get into our consistent theme of cycles throughout the episode, we also chat through the planetary predictions of 2020 and the fundamental ways of Saturn and how it relates to the events and energies we have all been experiencing in this year of unprecedented times.

We touch on some differing beliefs as to the age of Aquarius and the changing of zodiac signs before taking a deep look into the birth chart and the benefits behind understanding this blueprint for the soul. In this conversation Katie describes the benefit to understanding one’s sun, moon, and rising (ascendent) signs and the characteristics that follow with each. As astrology is so multifaceted Katie describes various planetary aspects and rulers, cardinal signs, and the ways that astrology really just confirms what our intuitions are already telling us. In order to provide some context behind her teachings Katie walks through various aspects of my birth chart further solidifying the validity behind the practice of astrology.

What else we talk about:

• Ways to leverage the tools of astrology to better understand your own soul
• The emergence of Project Hindsight
• The Golden Age of astrology
• Rapid growth of astrology in the last few years
• The ways 2020 is a “masterclass of Saturn”

Many of us can relate to moments of feeling disconnected from our true selves or an innate desire to explore the areas of life that light us up most authentically. In this initial episode Britt shares her journey and reasoning behind not only digging deep in order to put forth her best self in this lifetime, but how you too hold the power to do so. And within that power lies the purpose behind the Loving Your Own Soul podcast; to help you tap into your own true potential.

5+ years ago Britt was deeply moved upon listening to her first self-improvement style podcast and was moved so much that she desired to start her own. Upon many years of self-work and pulling back the layers to tap into her true authenticity, she is proud to launch her own space of inspiration as a way to pay it forward from all that she has learned from podcasts over the years.

• The Lively Show with Jess Lively
• Almost 30 with Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik

Stress and anxiety are an aspect of life that everyone will have to deal with from time to time and understanding what causes this stress can feel intimidating. Spending time alone with your thoughts can be scary, but to be completely present in the moment is what we call mindfulness.

In this episode, Britt guides the way to a greater understanding that being mindful starts with utilizing the tools the work best for you.

There is no right or wrong way to become more mindful and incorporate the practice into your everyday life. And once you start, you’ll be left wondering why you didn’t start sooner. Come join Britt for this week’s episode on the benefits and advantages to becoming a more mindful human being.

Today we are joined by entrepreneur and podcast host, Taylor Turner, who established Healing In Hindsight out of her own experiences and desire to encourage fellow diabetics through sharing tips, strategies, and personal experiences. We share all about the evolution of chronic illness to the onset of symptoms, diagnosis process, and self-prescribed healing strategy to utilizing food as medicine. Taylor shares her own experiences in navigating the medical world as a black woman and together we reflect on the obvious misjudgements and obvious room for improvement that exists in today’s systems.

Taylor openly shares the obvious differences that take place in a hospital for a white woman vs. a black woman and the need for radical change, starting with communication and a “for all” mentality. This empowering episode was split into two parts so be sure to check out part one (Episode 16) for the beginning of Taylor’s story. Before wrapping up this episode we even discuss the benefits of psychedelics to the human brain and the beauty that comes from honest communication in a relationship.

We also talk about:

• Misconception that black women hold higher pain tolerances than white women
• Oppression of females, blacks, people of color, etc.
• Lack of access in the wellness worlds and the scarcity of black female influencers
• Inequality of products and lack of targeting to the communities who are lacking in resources and nutrition
• The importance of the concept “pay it forward”
• Taylor’s motives to forming Healing In Hindsight and the platforms she’s looking to build within her strive to help humanity
• The loss of societal consciousness and inability to look at the greater good
• Getting out from behind the keyboard and having a real conversation
• Spelling out the importance of communication in all relationships and having uncomfortable conversations as adults
