Deep Breaths & F-Bombs corina sowada

When will being black stop being a death sentence? 

I don't have the answers but I ask all of my white friends and family, and all of my white listeners, I beg of you to please look within yourself and ask this question, "Where is the racism in me?" You may know this is wrong, it may hurt your heart to see black men being brutally beaten and murdered, but racism is in the air we breathe. 

In this episode I share the words of Glennon Doyle in her book "Untamed" and I challenge you to look within. I challenge you to accept and understand that there is darkness that runs deep in our veins, and I ask that you actively detox yourself of this poison. 

When white people are the ones doing the beating and murdering of black men and women, we must see that there is something within us that needs to be healed. So please, please heal. 

I've been ghosted but this was a whole new level of the word.

If you've been ghosted before or had the thoughts, "What the fuck did I do? Why is he not interested anymore? Why all of a sudden, when things were good, he just evaporated?" come into your mind, this episode for you.

This man also heavily triggered my wound that everyone leaves but I was able to move through that and continue to open up to love. Find out how I moved through that in this episode.

Emma Del Rey is back on the pod and if you loved Episode 7, I promise you'll love this one too!

Mercury is retrograde and will be until March 9th so it's likely you're feeling a little foggy, or maybe your communication has been off, technology has been acting out. OR, maybe you've had an ex or two resurface (I have!)

In this episode Emma & I talk about all things Mercury Retrograde: What it is, how it affects us, and how to use Mercury Retrograde to your advantage vs letting it stop/scare you. Emma also shares about how Mercury being in retrograde will affect each of us differently depending on where it is in your birth chart

Connect with Emma on IG @emmandelrey & if you're interested in a birth chart reading, which I HIGHLY recommend (Emma read mine as well as my sons and it has helped me to understand myself on a whole new level - listen to episode 7 for more on that - and also how to be a better parent to my son), make sure to send her a DM and let her know I sent you!

Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back!

This episode, along with the following few episodes are a part of a new series where I share with you my own personal dating stories that might just blow your mind. I'm not sharing them as a "poor me", but rather for you to really see that 1) you're not alone and 2) it's possible for you to move through these situations and stay open to love.

In this episode specifically I share how I got my heart absolutely shattered by the man I thought was my soul mate. The chemistry was undeniable and the warning signs were limited. Despite being broken, I share how I was able to move through this and heal not only my hurt, but forgive him as well. 

Ya'll, I LOVED this convo w/ Em and if you're struggling to embrace a piece of you that may be "different" or that you're having a hard time accepting, you'll love this convo too!

Em is a Spirituality Coach and Animal Intuitive. She helps women step into their next level by leaning into their spiritual gifts and trusting the power woman she is meant to become. 

If you love Em as much as I do, you can connect with her on IG @emscimeca, on her podcast: Self-Love Letters, or her website at www.emscimeca.com

We talk about:

*How Em uncovered her gifts as an Animal Intuitive and how she responded to her new gifts

*Navigating being the "black sheep" of the family and moving towards acceptance

*What doors opened once she started owning her gifts

and so much more! 

Enjoy!

This episode is inspired by a conversation I had a few days ago with a young, pregnant woman, who had no one to turn to for advice. So today's episode is for all of my young, pregnant women out there who have no clue where to start. 

I talk about things like health insurance, county assistance programs, and choosing your child's last name.

Do take note that I live in the states in Minnesota and things may be different where you live, but still take a listen because it might give you insight on what to look into.
