As we evolve into The Illuminated Woman, we're going to dive into common thoughts, ideas, and beliefs, both current and historical, and turn them on their heads. Get ready, because this is a spicy one!

Challenging Popular Beliefs: Why it's essential to question the mainstream and share our unique perspectives.
The Fear of Standing Out: How fear of ridicule has kept many women, including me, silent and why it's time to speak up.
Honoring Our Ancestors: A deep dive into the idea that we are the ones our ancestors have been waiting for and why I believe it's a misguided notion.
Personal Stories and Ancestral Contributions: I share a bit about the incredible legacies of my parents and ancestors who lived through the Great Depression, WWII, and more.
Rejecting the Savior Complex: Understanding that each generation builds upon the healing work of the previous ones, and we are not the ultimate healers, martyrs, or saviors.

The Cosmic Connection: 2024 Quarter 3 Preview for The Illuminated Woman

It's time to dive into what the cosmos has in store for us during the 3rd quarter of 2024. We're heading into Retrograde Season and the beginning of the next Eclipse season, so there's a lot to look forward to!
We have 6 planets going retrograde this quarter: Saturn, Neptune, Chiron, Uranus, Mercury and Pluto. Each one calls us to reflect on different areas of our lives.
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse happens in mid-September and offers us the opportunity to celebrate what's come to completion and ready to be birthed and/or released.
As always, I offer you some insights and journal questions to help you navigate all of it because there's so much opportunity for growth, healing, and evolution during the retrogrades and the Eclipse.
If you'd like to schedule a Soul Essence reading to help you understand how any of these events will impact you, or to discover your unique Soul Essence and where you are on your Soul's path in this life, click here to get on my calendar.

Embracing A Nourishing Morning Ritual By Listening to Your Body AND Your Soul

Do you have a morning ritual? If you do, does it nourish your body and your Soul? In this episode, I share the importance of creating a nourishing morning ritual.
The way we begin our day creates the foundation for our day. Most of us jump out of bed and dive right into our day - whether it's getting kids up and off to school, checking your email and/or social media, drinking coffee, or watching the news. This creates a lot of stress and dysregulation to our nervous systems. It puts us in a hyper-masculine energy state when women are better served by beginning the day with more feminine energy. Women are more fluid in nature and require a morning ritual that's adaptive and intuitive.
