We've all been there! In the heat of frustration with someone, we yell out, "They should know better!" Or maybe it's yourself you think should know better. But what does that even mean? In Episode 1 of The Lighthouse Within, host Ambar Paloma challenges the idea that knowing is enough. What does it take to move from simply knowing what’s right to actually doing it? Using her own life experiences and mental health struggles as a backdrop, Ambar shares actionable steps to build resilience for life changes and apply what you’ve learned to create lasting transformation.
Hit play, and let's get started. But before continuing this journey, please securely fasten this week's lifejacket. If the storms of life get extra turbulent and you fall overboard, your life jacket will help you stay afloat.

Reconnect To Your Intuition For Good
"Is this intuition or is this anxiety?" This question haunted me throughout my 20s. As someone who deeply identified with being anxious, it felt like anxiety clung to me through every major moment, like a dog with a bone. People would often say, "Intuition feels calm, anxiety doesn’t." But that didn’t feel clear to me at all. So, I went into detective mode, friends 🕵🏽♀️.
I think I finally got to the bottom of this question and discovered the real solution you need to stop doubting yourself, build resilience for life changes, and finally trust your intuition again. Plus, I’ve put it all into a FREE guide just for you!
Get your guide, press play, and continue your healing journey 💛
