    EP 390 | From Surviving To Living: My Evolution | Andrea Crisp

    "Courage taught me how to survive. Alignment is teaching me how to live." After almost a decade, The Couragecast is entering a sacred transition. In this episode, I share the heart behind the closing of the courage season—not as a goodbye rooted in loss, but as a completion rooted in truth. Courage carried me through burnout, life transitions, leaving ministry, deconstructing faith, building a business, and learning how to choose myself. But courage, as a way of leading and living, no longer fits who I am becoming. This conversation is an honest reflection on the evolution from fear-led courage to soul-led alignment. It's about outgrowing survival mode, releasing identities that once kept us safe, and learning how to live—and lead—from embodiment, intuition, and trust. In this episode we explore: Why courage was necessary for survival—but not for this next chapter The difference between fear-based bravery and soul-led alignment How survival leadership shows up in the body and nervous system Letting go of hustle, urgency, and proving What it means to move from surviving to truly living A gentle somatic reflection to honor completion and emergence This episode includes a simple embodied pause to help you reflect on what feels complete in your own life and what is ready to be released so you can soften into what's emerging next. "Courage built the bridge. Alignment builds the home." How to Work With Me: I work with intuitive, high-capacity women who are transitioning out of survival mode and into embodied, soul-led leadership. In 1:1 Align Coaching we go beneath the surface together. You'll release the patterns that keep you overworking, people-pleasing, or looping in self-doubt, while healing blocks to confidence, worthiness, and abundance. Align & Empower is for heart-centred women ready to grow embodied confidence and self trust—supported, seen, and expanded through conscious community, not burn out. This small-group coaching container designed for women who want to expand their influence while staying fully grounded. Together, we release limiting beliefs, cultivate embodied leadership, and create a safe, supportive space to explore aligned action. You'll gain clarity, confidence, and presence in your life and work, learning to lead with ease and impact while staying deeply connected to yourself. Aligned Money is an eight-week coaching container for heart-centred female leaders and entrepreneurs who feel stuck and stressed around money and want grounded safety, trust and the freedom to receive more.

    EP 388 | You're Not Broken: You're Outgrowing The Way You've Been Leading

    Lately, I've been hearing the same thing over and over again from the women I'm in community with: "I'm unmotivated. I'm exhausted. I'm questioning everything." And yet, rest doesn't seem to fix it.  In this episode of The Couragecast, I'm naming a different kind of burnout — the kind that doesn't come from doing too much, but from leading in a way that no longer fits who you're becoming. This conversation is not about finding another strategy, adding another healing modality, or figuring out how to push through. It's about recognizing when your nervous system, your energy, and your identity are no longer aligned with the way you've been showing up.  Burnout from misalignment often feels like disorientation rather than exhaustion — a loss of desire, a quiet resistance to what used to work, and a deep knowing that you're here for more, but you refuse to do it the old way. This isn't a problem to fix: it's a transition to honour.  In the episode, we explore:  The difference between burnout from overdoing and burnout from misalignment Why intuitive empathic leaders are especially vulnerable right now The invisible exhaustion of always holding space, being strong, and being the "guide". How healing work can quietly turn into self-monitoring, hesitation, and self doubt. What it means to be in an identity limbo — knowing you're here for more, but not knowing what's next.  Connect With Andrea: @andreacrispcoach Align & Empower Mastermind is a hybrid coaching/mastermind for women who are no longer interested in pushing, proving, or performing in their leadership. It's a space for intuitive, heart-centred leaders who are ready to release identities they've outgrown, reclaim their energy, and lead from embodiment, clarity and support — personally and professionally.  Original music and production by Stephen Crilly.

    EP 387 | Purpose, Pauses, and the World We're Living In | Andrea Crisp

    At the beginning of the year, many of us felt hope, clarity, and momentum. And then life happened. The world intesified politically, socially, emotionally and suddenly that early-year energy felt harder to access.  In this episode of The Couragecast, we explore what it means when purpose driven, intuitive women feel heavy, slowed down, or disoriented by the collective weight of the world. This conversation is for anyone questioning their momentum, alignment, or sense of direction and wondering if slowing down means they've lost their way.  This episode gently reframes heaviness not as failure, but as awareness. It offers grounded, nervous-system-informed perspective on momentum, rest, and sustainable leadership—espectially for sensitve, heart-led women navigating work, business, and life during uncertain times.  In this episode we discuss: Why collective events don't just happen "out there" but are felt deeply in the body. Why intuitive, empathic, purpose-driven women are especially impacted right now.  How the belief that momentum requires contant output and how that creates burnout.  The difference between slowing down and shutting down.  Why alignment often requires recalibration rather than acceleration.  How tending to your nervous system now protects long-term momentum. What it means to stay connected to yourself without forcing progress.  Connect with Andrea on Instagram: @andreacrispcoach Free Meditations on Insight Timer: Listen Here Be Held: Nervous System Reset For Women Who Lead: Join me for a supportive, grounding space for women who are holding a lot and need a place to soften, exhale, and be supported—emotionally, energetically, and spiritually.  Wednesday, January 21st at 1 pm - $22 USD Align & Empower: A deeper coaching container for intuitive, heart-led women ready to lead with embodiment, alignment, and sustainable impact—without doing it alone.  Learn More About Align & Empower Music and Production by: Stephen Crilly

    Ep 385 | The Quantum Power of Community: Using Your Human Design Profile | Andrea Crisp

    What if the breakthrough you've been chasing wasn't hding in another strategy, another round of inner work, or another 'push harder' season ... but in letting yourself be held? Most women aren't — they're under-supported. And once you understand how your Human Design profile impacts the way you thrive in community, everything starts to click.  In this episode of The Couragecast, I share the most unexpected shift that changed my business, my healing, and my entire nervous sytem this year: being part of life giving community.  We explore how your Human Design profile actually reveals the way you grow, rise, and regulate best — whether you're a 1/3, 2/4, 4/6, or 6/2. I break down the mistakes so many of make (like confusing independence with isolation), how different profiles are uniquely wired for community, and why your next level isn't meant to be done alone.  I'm sharing personal stories from my group programs, and the energetic truth behind why transformation accelerates inside the right rooms — especially when collective intention, shared energy, and co-regulation are present.  This episode is for the heart-led, spiritually minded leader who wants to grow their business, heal their money stories, regulate their nervous system, and lead from deeper level of embodiment in 2026.  We dive into: Why women feel stuck when really they are under-supported. Human Design profiles to help you grow in community. Why co-regulation accelerates your transformation. How to choose the right community.  Why community becomes a quantum field. If 2026 is the year you stop doing everything alone and finally step into rooms that match the woman you are becoming, Align & Empower is where that shift happens.  This 5-month coaching mastermind is designed for spiritually minded women ready to rise with community, regulate with support, and expand through aligned leadership. If you want to be held, seen, supported and challenged this is your room. Spots open in January with early access available now at the 2025 rate. Message me to claim your space.

    EP 384 | The Woman I'm Becoming: My Identity Shift + What I'm Calling In

    "Life wasn't blocking me — I was blocking me."   This year stretched me in ways I did not see coming. And instead of breaking, something finally clicked into place. If 2025 pushed you, pulled you, slowed you down, or sped you up… this might be the story you didn't realize you needed.   In this episode, I'm sharing the real, unpolished truth of my 2025 identity shift — the setbacks, the unraveling, the nervous system wake-up calls, and the quiet moments that changed everything.   Two falls, chronic pain, burnout patterns resurfacing, old identities gripping tight… and the moment I realized I wasn't being blocked — I was blocking myself.   I'll take you through: Why slowing down was the very thing I fought the hardest. The identity I had to let go of to finally create change. The inner work behind paying off over half my debt. How Aligned Money opened a path I didn't expect. What I'm calling in for 2026 — and who I'm becoming. If you're standing on the edge of your own shift, this episode will help you see your season differently.   If you've been waiting for a sign… this is it. Align + Empower is the mastermind where your inner work meets real transformation.   Message me to explore if it's your next aligned step — and lock in the current rate before it rises in the new year.   Connect with me: @andreacrispcoach + andreacrisp.ca   Music and production by Stephen Crilly.

    EP 383 | You Are Not The Problem (Your Patterns Are) | Andrea Crisp

    Have you ever wondered why you keep getting pulled into the same cycle — no matter how much you grow, learn, or heal? This episode meets you right in that tension. You'll hear why the patterns you're repeating aren't personal failures, but subconscious reponses your mind and body created to protect you long before you ever had language for them.  As you listen, you'll begin to see your story through a different lens — one that brings relief, clarity, and compassion for the younger version of you who learned these patterns, and the current version of you who's ready to shift them for good. In this episode dive into: Why your subconscious runs the show — and how to interrupt old patterns.   How trauma, conditioning, and inherited beliefs shape your self-perception.  A simple reframing process to anchor new aligned beliefs. Daily integration questions to rewire your identity over the next 21 days. Connect with me: Instagram: @andreacrispcoach Website: www.andreacrisp.ca Work with me: If you're ready to uncover the core pattern beneath your biggest blocks, The Alignment Intensive is a 90-minute deep dive with two weeks of guided integration support.
