In a world that constantly tells us who we should be, finding our true identity can feel like an uphill battle. Many of us struggle to balance our authentic selves with the roles and expectations society places on us. In the face of this life's complexities, horoscopes can offer meaningful ways for self-discovery and empowerment. Horoscopes aren’t just about predictions—they are a tool to help us feel more centered, confident, and accepting of ourselves. They provide a sense of validation and reassurance that goes beyond external labels, supporting us on our path toward inner peace and authentic self-expression.In this episode, we’re joined by Ophira Edut to answer this week’s one-million-dollar question: Why should you check your horoscope? Ophira is a renowned astrologer and intuitive advisor, the resident astrologer for ELLE, and the author of over 20 books. She advises CEOs, celebrities, and entrepreneurs and has spoken worldwide at major companies and venues. Featured on Bravo, MTV, Good Morning America, and the Today Show, she also created the astrology-based reality TV show Cosmic Love. Her upcoming book, The Astrology Advantage, introduces the IAM System, simplifying birth charts into three archetypes. Her work on "spiritual technology" for business success has been highlighted in Fast Company and global leadership conferences.

What is it that truly drives you? What if your work could be a reflection of your unique purpose, aligning your deepest values with what you do every day? Many of us struggle with feelings of inadequacy and imposter syndrome, wondering if we’re really in the right place or living up to our true potential. Imagine a path where you uncover your natural strengths, connect with your authentic self, and let go of the pressure to be someone you’re not. When career and purpose align, work becomes more than a job—it becomes a fulfilling extension of who you are, empowering you to face challenges with confidence and clarity. Embracing this alignment can transform how you navigate your career, letting purpose guide you toward both fulfillment and success.

In this episode, we talk about how human design could be a tool to achieve your dreams and find your motivation and purpose in your work with a returning guest, Zach Carlsen. Zach has been coaching and educating professionally for the last decade. The core and foundation of his work is human design, a modern science containing ancient systems for exploring the nature of being. He holds advanced academic degrees in pedagogy, literature, and French, as well as certifications from Gallup Inc. in Clifton Strengths coaching and SSC in human design coaching. In 2021, he obtained his master coach certification from Elementum Coaching Institute.

Have you been feeling stuck, anxious, and disconnected from yourself? Anxiety is a real challenge that many women grapple with, impacting both their emotional and physical well-being. It can show up as a constant feeling of fear, worry, and restlessness or even manifest physically through symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or difficulty breathing. This overwhelming sense of unease can make it hard to focus, enjoy the present moment, or feel at peace. But recognizing these feelings is the first step toward healing. By addressing anxiety with mindful practices, positive thinking, and self-compassion, it’s possible to regain control, find balance, and reconnect with your inner strength.

Katie is a mindset coach, keynote speaker, actress, survivor, writer, and the founder of Happy Camp. Katie has appeared on TV shows such as Modern Family, Hawaii Five-0, New Girl, and General Hospital, and her writing has been featured on Newsweek and The Huffington Post.
