In this episode, I talk about how as I child, I started to intuitively use writing as a way to process difficult emotions. I also share the moment I realized I’d used this childhood trauma response to build my entire professional career as a writer.

I go on to share some tips for how you too can use journaling as a way to process emotion, and finally invite you to join us inside The Write to Heal, a 5-week group journaling program that kicks off at the end of the month. Thank you for listening!

In this episode, I chat with my dear friend Caro Pérez. Caro and I have known each other for years, but became especially close in 2025 after traveling to India together for the Maha Kumbh Mela and, upon return, her becoming my harmonium & mantra teacher!

We talk about vulnerability, coming back home to one’s voice, how her coaching business has evolved, and why it’s so important to date your intuition.

In this episode, I talk about how you can start noticing synchronicities—or winks from the universe, as I like to call them—in your everyday life. I give some personal examples, showing how it helps to first look back at your past to see how the universe has been at work in your life, so that you can more easily spot those magic synchronicities when they happen in the future!

• If you’re interested in what year cycle you’re in based on numerology, you can input your birthday+the current year here. (Keep in mind: My year 9 cycle ended on my birthday in December 2025, therefore I was in my year 9 from Dec 2024 to Dec 2025, and am in my year 1 from Dec 2025 to 2026; therefore the month-by-month predictions on this site aren’t accurate, but the year cycle is.)

In this episode, we dive into how—especially as women—we’re socialized to hate our bodies and how I’ve worked to unwrite that story throughout my life. I share three woowoo stories of how I’ve learned that having a body is indeed a privilege, and close by guiding you through a body scan.
