    The Stay-or-Leave Question: Relationships, Burnout, Boundaries & Self-Trust

    In this episode, Laurie Oakes sits down with Rebecca of The Risen Sisterhood for a raw, honest conversation about the crossroads so many women find themselves at: burnout, people-pleasing, and the question of whether to stay or leave a relationship that no longer fits who they're becoming. Laurie and Rebecca dig into how intuitive coaching helps high-achieving women reconnect with their own identity after years of overfunctioning and self-abandonment. They talk about what it actually looks like to set boundaries without guilt, how to tell the difference between a season worth fighting for and a pattern that's run its course, and how to walk through that decision with clarity and self-respect rather than fear or obligation. The conversation also traces the deeper roots of these patterns, exploring ancestral and societal conditioning, the messages women inherit about worth and sacrifice, and how those messages often show up differently in the way daughters and sons are raised. Laurie and Rebecca share practical, grounded steps for beginning to heal from that conditioning, so listeners can start showing up as their full, unapologetic selves. Whether you're navigating burnout, standing at a relationship crossroads, or simply craving permission to put yourself first, this episode offers both the validation and the tools to help you rise into your highest potential. In this episode: Recognizing burnout and people-pleasing as protection patterns, not personality traits How intuitive coaching supports women through major life decisions Knowing whether to stay or leave: a framework for clarity Ancestral and societal conditioning around women's worth Raising daughters and sons differently, and why it matters Practical first steps toward healing and self-trust Follow Laurie on IG @laurieoakesmediumship Join The Wild Soul Rising Community  Book a Session With Laurie and use code WSRCOMMUNITY to save 15% Learn more www.laurieoakesmediumship.com Find Rebecca: https://www.instagram.com/therisencollective.co/

    The Parts Of Grief That No One Wants To Talk About

    In this episode of Wild Soul Rising, host Laurie Oakes sits down with psychotherapist Natalie Goerner to explore grief in its many forms:  sudden loss, anticipatory grief, and ambiguous loss, and why so many people rush through or suppress it. They discuss societal and generational influences on how we handle loss, the impact of unclear communication around sickness or death (especially with children), and practical ways to support someone who is grieving, from showing up with concrete help to holding space without trying to fix things. Through personal stories and therapeutic insights, Natalie and Laurie highlight the role of mindfulness, somatic practices, and community in healing and invite listeners to honour multiple truths on the journey toward integration and resilience.   Follow Laurie on IG @laurieoakesmediumship   Join The Wild Soul Rising Community  Book a Session With Laurie and use code WSRCOMMUNITY to save 15% Learn more www.laurieoakesmediumship.com   Find Natalie Goerner https://www.nataliegoerner.com/ Follow on IG @mindfulnessmeditationmtl

    Are You Healing or Just Consuming? How to Quiet the Noise

    In this episode, Laurie Oakes explores the pressure of trends and consumerism in wellness and spirituality, and invites listeners to go back to basics.

    Bio-Hacks, Burnout & Bank Accounts: Dr. Erica Mattia's Holistic Approach to Health & Financial Wellness

    What if the reason you're exhausted, struggling with your weight, or can't sleep has nothing to do with your bloodwork and everything to do with the light you're exposed to, the water you drink, and the invisible forces around you? In this episode, host Laurie Oakes sits down with Dr. Erica Mattia—a former chiropractor turned Quantum Biology Practitioner & financial advisor—who walked away from an $80,000 education because intuitively she felt like something was missing. Dr. Erica breaks down what Quantum Biology actually is, shares nature-based bio-hacks for energy, sleep, skin, and hormones, and gets real about her personal journey through infertility and postpartum health. But the conversation doesn't stop at the body. Dr. Erica also opens up about her second mission: helping families and health practitioners build real financial security through smart investing and retirement planning. She believes that physical health and financial health go hand in hand. Whether you're a busy mom, a health professional, or just someone who wants to feel better and stress less about money, this episode will give you simple, actionable steps to take today.   Follow Laurie on IG @laurieoakesmediumship   Join The Wild Soul Rising Community  Book a Session With Laurie and use code WSRCOMMUNITY to save 15% Learn more www.laurieoakesmediumship.com   Follow Dr. Erica Mattia on IG: https://www.instagram.com/drericam/ Learn more at: https://www.drericamattia.com/

    Growing or Avoiding? How to Know When Something Truly Isn't Serving You

    We've all said it. "This just isn't serving me anymore." But what if that phrase, as empowering as it sounds, is sometimes just a spiritual-sounding exit ramp from something we actually need to walk through? In this episode, Laurie Oakes gets honest about the difference between wisdom and avoidance, and makes the case that everything you're experiencing right now is serving you, even the stuff you'd never choose. Especially that. She breaks down how to tell the difference between a genuine lesson learned and a lesson you're still in the middle of, and offers a new question to replace "is this serving me?": What is this here to show me?   Follow Laurie on IG @laurieoakesmediumship   Join The Wild Soul Rising Community  Book a Session With Laurie and use code WSRCOMMUNITY to save 15% Learn more www.laurieoakesmediumship.com
