As we close out 2025, I want to invite you to take a gentle moment to recognize how much you’ve grown.

When you’re recovering from codependency, people-pleasing, and the habit of trying to manage everything around you, progress often shows up in quiet ways. A pause before reacting. A boundary you were once afraid to set. A moment of choosing peace over control. These shifts matter. They are the foundation of the Recover Your Soul Process.

In this episode, we look back together at the small but powerful changes that shape an entirely new way of being. Whether you arrived here through Al-Anon, through a painful relationship pattern, or through a longing to feel more connected to yourself, I want you to see just how far you’ve already come.

We talk about awakening, the year’s energetic shifts, and why so many sensitive souls are feeling called to release old stories and step into deeper truth. You are not alone. You are part of something unfolding, and your healing is part of that greater transformation.

Let this episode be a reminder: you are doing the work. You are waking up. And you deserve to feel proud of the courage it takes to reclaim your own life.

Until next time,
Rev Rachel

The holidays have a way of bringing everything to the surface - the joy, the love, the tenderness, and also the old stories, the anxieties, and the patterns we thought we were done with. Being around family gives us a front-row seat to our operating system, the parts of us that still tighten, protect, or try to keep the peace.

In this episode of Recover Your Soul, I talk about the real spiritual work of being with family while staying connected to yourself. We explore how to actually feel your feelings rather than suppress them, how to listen to the information they carry, and how to recognize when you’ve slipped into old roles of managing, pleasing, or fixing.

This is the heart of the Recover Your Soul Process - learning to turn inward with curiosity and compassion, letting the emotions arise without judgment, and allowing others to be exactly who they are.

My hope is that these reflections help you stay rooted in yourself through the holiday season - not armored, not shut down, but present, awake, and open to the deeper healing that is always happening beneath the surface.

You are allowed to feel what you feel. You are allowed to honor your needs. And you are

As we enter the holiday season, many of us feel the familiar pull of old patterns… the pressure to keep everyone happy, the fear of conflict, and the overwhelm of family dynamics. In this episode, we explore how gratitude can become a powerful spiritual tool. Not for fixing anyone else, but for staying grounded, present, and connected to your own inner peace.

I share simple Recover Your Soul practices you can use before, during, and after family gatherings to help you soften, breathe, release control, and return to yourself. These tools support you in choosing presence over perfection, compassion over judgment, and allowing over absorbing. You will learn more about:

• gratitude as a lens that dissolves judgment
• moving from control to spiritual sovereignty
• holiday triggers, expectations, and old roles
• powerlessness over others, power over self
• family systems, secrecy, and generational healing
• micro-gratitude and grounding practices
• a separation-and-Thanksgiving boundary scenario
• meditation as steady support for calm presence
• choosing love, compassion, acceptance over fixing

If the holidays feel complicated, this conversation offers an o
