    Do Less in 2026: Practicing Surrender, Love, and Radical Acceptance

    What if your transformation didn't require doing more—but doing less, with more intention?   In this heartfelt Season 4 opener, the Lemonettes return to the mic to reflect on what they're choosing to practice in 2026—not as resolutions to achieve, but as intentions to live into. This episode is rich with honest stories, sacred humor, and spiritual insight as Amanda, Drusilla, Penny, Morgan, and Melissa share what's real for them as the year begins.   You'll hear reflections on:   Radical self-acceptance as a daily spiritual practice Choosing surrender (again and again) instead of control Nervous system regulation as the foundation of peace Leading with love in business, friendship, and life Practical resets when the ego pulls us off course Why doing less might actually be the most courageous thing we do this year     ✨ Episode Practice: Ask yourself: What do I want to practice, not perfect, in 2026? What usually knocks me off course—and what's my reset? What would courage have me do this year? We invite you to take this on as a gentle Lemon Lab experiment: Pick one intention, one reset, and one courageous act to begin the year with clarity and grace.   ✅ Show Notes / Resources Mentioned: You Are Enough by Panache Desai A Course in Miracles, Lesson 364: "This holy instant would I give to You…" Practices: meditation, journaling, sacred pauses, affirmations ("I am enough", "I need do nothing")     🎧 Don't forget to follow, subscribe, and leave a review to help more listeners like you find this podcast!

In this deep and funny holiday conversation, the Lemonettes explore the true energy of giving and why receiving with an open heart just might be the key to joy, gratitude, and abundance.   Is it really better to give than to receive?

    Don't Believe Everything You Think: How to Get Off the Mental Hamster Wheel

    Are your thoughts keeping you up at night? This week on Five Lemons Laughing, we explore how to get off the "mental hamster wheel" of overthinking and self-judgment — and reclaim your peace. Inspired by Don't Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen, the Lemonettes share practical tools like the 90-second reset, the power of pausing, and how awareness is the first step to freedom.   ✨ Key Takeaways: Thoughts are neutral — it's our thinking that causes suffering. The 90-second rule can help emotions pass naturally. You can detach from the "bullet train" of rumination through simple awareness. Spiritual surrender and presence are powerful tools for peace. Ask yourself: "Is it true… or is it trauma?"   📚 Resources Mentioned: Don't Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen The Surrender Experiment by Michael Singer 90 Seconds to a Life You Love by Dr. Joan Rosenberg Byron Katie's The Work Catherine Woodward Thomas – What's True About You?

    The Restaurant Moment That Made Me Question My Spiritual Progress

    A real-life restaurant moment triggered a full-on spiritual spiral — and sparked a deep conversation among the Lemonettes about peace, ego, people-pleasing, and how to gently come back to yourself when you think you've "failed" spiritually. What happens when your nervous system spikes in public — and all your spiritual tools seem to go out the window? In this episode, Morgan shares a vulnerable story about being confronted by a restaurant hostess and how that seemingly small moment sent her into a spiral of guilt, self-doubt, and spiritual second-guessing.   You'll hear us unpack how to: 💛 Tell the difference between surrender and self-abandonment 🌀 Recognize when ego hijacks your spiritual practice 🌱 Reclaim your voice and your peace 🧠 Use visualization to gently rewire emotional reactions 🙏 Forgive yourself and others with honesty and compassion   We talk about: Nervous system dysregulation in real time "The shoulds" that sneak into spiritual practice The blurry line between speaking up and overreacting Choosing peace without bypassing pain   If you've ever wondered, "Am I spiritually regressing?" or felt ashamed after reacting in a moment of stress — this episode will meet you right there, with love and honesty.   📚 Referenced Resources: A Course in Miracles – Lesson 310: "In fearlessness and love I spend today."

    I'm Happy for You… Kinda: When Comparison Steals Your Peace

    Why her success triggered me — and what I did about it. We're getting honest about the sneaky ways comparison shows up—when someone else's glow dims your vibe. From jealousy to self-judgment to spiritual guilt, this episode explores how to shift from despair to peace using real-life stories, spiritual tools, and self-forgiveness.   Have you ever secretly felt small in someone else's glow? Maybe you've thought: "It should've been me." Or felt a flicker of relief when someone else hit a bump in the road. Yep. Us too. In this raw and revealing episode, the Lemonettes share real-life moments of "compare and despair" — from jealousy in a class, to resentment in recovery, to a sneaky flash of schadenfreude at a friend's misfortune. We talk about: What comparison really reveals about our inner world Why it hurts so much (and how fast it can spiral) The power of turning it over to Spirit Forgiveness, emotional validation, and practical spiritual tools How to stop judging your insides by someone else's outsides Whether you're doing A Course in Miracles or just trying to keep your heart open in a world of curated highlight reels, this conversation is a balm.   🛠️ Spiritual tools we share in this episode: The "Sweetheart Practice" for emotional healing Forgiveness as a path to peace (especially with yourself) ACIM Lesson 309: "Projection is a mirror, not a fact" Mindset reframes for jealousy, self-criticism, and fear of not being enough How to genuinely bless what others have — and claim it for yourself   💛 Favorite quote: "Despair is just a signal that I'm out of alignment with Love."
