Wake up and Thrive Bridget Covill

Join me for an enlightening chat with Dr. Kelly Kessler on our latest episode of Wake Up and Thrive. We dive deep into the often hidden issue of self-abandonment—those times when we sideline our own needs to meet others' expectations, rooted deep in our past experiences. Through my journey from sobriety to self-discovery, and Dr. Kessler's deep insights as a transformational coach, we’ll equip you with real, grounded strategies to elevate your self-care from a whisper to a guiding voice.
We all know the drill: playing the perfect professional, the always-there parent, or the accommodating partner. This episode peels back those labels to reveal how such roles can really affect our mental and physical health. Yet, there’s a silver lining. Together, we explore ways to redefine what self-worth means and embrace the beautiful, complex beings we truly are, beyond just our achievements.
Dr. Kessler shares the powerful story of a mother who found healing in the chaos of everyday life. It’s a story of hope and a reminder that it’s never too late to prioritize yourself. We also tackle how to better navigate relationships and listen to the important signals our bodies send us.
To wrap up, we invite you to a special virtual group reset breathwork session. It’s designed to help you reconnect with your body and voice, align with your truth, and start your journey toward healing and thriving. This isn’t just another podcast episode—it’s a step towards a life filled with self-love and empowerment.
Ready to join us? Tune in, get inspired, and let’s start this journey together. Here’s where you can listen and join the breathwork session: [Insert Link]

Welcome back to a juicy episode all about pleasure!!! Notice for a moment, what stories, sensations, or emotions arose when you read that. Alot of people immediately go to sexual pleasure or feeling embarrassed or a hint of shame. If that is you, just notice and come back into this moment.

In this context, we are not talking about pleasure just from a sexual standpoint. I want to introduce women everywhere to this concept of creating a daily, nonsexual, pleasure practice. When we start to make pleasure part of our daily lives, then we start to become the owner and creator of our own experience. This is when you are the most powerful. It starts with learning to feel good again.

We live in a world that is starting to wake up, and most of us are getting good at feeling uncomfortable emotions, but what about building our capacity for the feel-good ones? This actually takes practice for most of us because we were told feeling good is bad!

If you have every asked yourself, " What do I even desire?", then this episode is for you. Our desires are directly connected to what feels good inside of us! As we start to strengthen this relationship with our pleasure in the simple moments, we become more attuned to what we desire in the big moments. Tune in for a powerful question to ask yourself no matter what you are doing that will help you connect to your feminine energy and create room for more pleasure.

Make sure you pop in your ear buds and cozy up for a fun and juicy episode. I hope you leave today's episode feeling inspired to create your own pleasure practice today! Come find me on social and share what you come up with!

If you resonate with this content and have been wanting support, this is your opportunity! I will be opening registration for my signature program, Fully Alive this month. Get on the waiting list here and receive a bonus discount just for being on this list.

In today's episode I am doing something I have never done before. Every year I write my kid's a letter on their birthday, and this year I am sharing parts of one of the letters with you. My purpose is to maintain my daughter's privacy, but to also let you all see how the people in your life that trigger you the most can also be your greatest gift. Learning to relate and show up well for her, has shown me so many areas in which I still get to grow and heal. She is the perfect match for me as a mom, and for that I am so grateful.

You are going to want to grab your tissues for this one. I hope it touches you in a powerful way. Even if you don't have a daughter imagine this letter is being written for the people in your life that cause you unease and discomfort. Ask yourself, "What is this person teaching me ABOUT ME?". Relationships are incredible mirrors for us if we are willing to see them that way.

If this episode touched you in some way, come find me on IG and let me know. I would love to hear your story!

One of my daughter's greatest gifts and also the thing that has been so triggering is her ability to be honest about her experience. I pray more women can cultivate this gift. So, this month's breathwork journey is all about reclaiming your voice. You can get access to that here.

What does it mean to speak your truth, and how do you do it without judging, blaming, and criticizing the other person?

I never truly understood the sheer power of my voice until the day it slipped away from me.  That unexpected quietness illuminated something profound within me—the realization of how our genuine voices can shape our world and the connections we hold dear. In today’s episode, consider this your personal invitation into the sacred realm of heartfelt communication.

We  uncover the differences between those conversations that surface from our egos and those that come straight from the heart. I’m eager to share some deeply personal insights on how embracing our truths can welcome others into our universe, creating bonds that touch our souls. This journey isn’t about assigning blame; it’s about extending a warm embrace.

Let's peel back the layers of our interactions and reveal the intricate dance of sharing the full spectrum of our truth, from emotions to the very sensations that ripple through us. Understand the profound intimacy that comes when we allow ourselves to see and truly be seen by another.
If you know you struggle to ask for what you want or speak up with you need support, then this month's virtual breathwork class is for you. We will breathe on April 28th @7:30pm EST and a recording will be available for a limited time afterwards. The theme is ' Reclaiming Your Voice'. Register here.

Celebrating a milestone is always special, but hitting five years of sobriety is not just a personal triumph; it's a beacon of hope that I'm thrilled to share with you. Through heartfelt stories, I, Bridget, open up about the freedom sobriety has unlocked in my life, giving me the ability to juggle my passion for this podcast with cherished moments like caring for my sick son. These years have brought an abundance of health, deeper relationships, and financial stability that I once only dreamed of. Listen as I recount the powerful conversations with my children about life choices, imparting the value of transparency and conscious living.

Embarking on a coaching career was a leap fueled by the desire to guide others on their path to sobriety without adhering to conventional recovery labels. In my reflections, I distinguish between simply having the ability to drink and consciously choosing a life of clarity and engagement. Sobriety for me isn't about saying no to a drink; it's a wholehearted yes to living fully. I share the stark contrast between the emotional numbness of my drinking days and the vibrant connection to life I experience now, hoping to inspire others to feel genuinely good.

Finally, I extend an invitation to join me in breathwork, a practice that has significantly deepened my sobriety and overall well-being. Whether it's part of your routine or you're looking to try something new, this episode underscores the profound benefits of this mindful exercise. We wrap up with an open heart, encouraging each of us to embrace our sobriety journey, free from shame and rich in commendation for the progress we make each day.
