We’re changing it up a little this week, and I’m opening up about what's on my heart within my certification journeys with energetics, root cause therapy, and instinctive meditation - and the profound healing insights I’ve gathered along the way. This episode explores the transformative power of self-acceptance, the role of energy in our emotions, and how deeply ingrained patterns shape our reactions to life’s challenges.

We’ll Chat About:

• The truth about self-acceptance and why it matters
• Root cause therapy’s role in releasing trapped energy and trauma
• Why meditation isn’t about “silencing the mind” but trusting your mind-body system
• Practical tools to bring awareness to your deepest roots and liberate yourself from repeating patterns

Whether you’re looking to heal old wounds, break free from stuck cycles, or connect with your core self, this episode is for you. Tune in for a step-by-step guide to aligning with your innate peace, joy, and love.

I pray this episode will grow and help you in some way. Sending my love and light,
