The part of you that was never broken, never behind, never as lost as it felt. This podcast is the reminder that she's still in there, and she doesn't need to be fixed, just found.

    Your Own Light

    This is the episode I wish someone had given me years ago. Because for a long time I thought living in my light was a destination, something I’d arrive at eventually, when I’d done enough work, healed enough things, become ready enough. The destination kept moving. This episode is about why. Living in your light doesn’t mean the darkness never comes. It means you know the light well enough to find your way back to it, quickly, without drama, without needing the whole spiral to complete before you’re allowed to feel okay again. Not permanent luminosity. Just a reliable way home. We go into the body in this one, because this can’t live only in the mind. We close with a practice specifically designed to help you locate your own light physically, so you have something real to come back to. Find me here: Step inside the Luminous Sanctuary and receive the free meditation waiting for you there — no credit card, no catch. Just light. When you’re ready to go deeper, the Inner Sanctuary holds a growing library of full meditations, energy sessions, and somatic practices that both expand and anchor the energy, full embodiment of your light. There’s also exclusive first access to every new Living Lights piece before it’s offered anywhere else. That’s where the real work lives. Sol-art.studio is the new home of all my work, under one sun. Come find me on Instagram — and if a Living Lights piece has been calling you, you’ll find the current available works there too. This is a public episode.

    The Light That Was Always There — Episode Two

    For the woman who has been searching for something she never actually lost. This is the episode Christy almost didn’t record. The one where her throat kept closing and her voice kept catching and something in her body tried very hard to keep this story inside. She recorded it anyway. What came out was the truest thing she has said out loud in years, the story of a woman who learned to make herself invisible to stay safe, who became so good at it she almost disappeared entirely, and who is only now beginning to understand that the light she’s been searching for was never somewhere else. It was always here. It was always her. In this episode: * The story behind the story, what this series is really about and why it took so long to say it out loud * What it costs to make yourself invisible and how the cost compounds quietly over years * The moment everything started to shift and what it actually felt like from the inside * An invitation to the woman who recognizes herself in this, the one who has been waiting for permission to stop hiding Find me here: Step inside the Luminous Sanctuary and receive the free meditation waiting for you there, no credit card, no catch. Just light. When you’re ready to go deeper, the Inner Sanctuary holds a growing library of full meditations, energy sessions, and somatic practices, plus exclusive first access to every new Living Lights piece before it’s offered anywhere else. That’s where the real work lives. Ready to work together in an Inner Sun Session? That’s where we go into your body, your blocks, and the light that was always underneath them. The details are here.

    The Light That Was Always There — Episode One: Why the Lights

    For the woman who has been waiting for permission to slow down and finally found it in the most unexpected place. This episode is where it begins. A December walk, Christmas lights strung across ordinary streets, and the sudden, quiet recognition that beauty has been here the whole time, not waiting for the right circumstances, not reserved for the extraordinary moments, just present and patient and available to anyone willing to actually stop and look. This is the episode that started a series, and it begins exactly where most transformation begins: not with a plan, but with a moment of genuine noticing. In this episode: * The unexpected invitation that arrived on an ordinary winter walk and why it refused to be ignored * What Christmas lights have to do with the life you’ve been quietly longing for * Why beauty has always been present and what gets in the way of us actually receiving it * The question this series is really asking, underneath all the ones it will explore along the way Find me here: Step inside the Luminous Sanctuary and receive the free meditation waiting for you there, no credit card, no catch.

    Remembering Your Inner Guidance

    For the woman who knows the answer and keeps asking everyone else anyway. Your inner wisdom hasn’t gone quiet. You’ve just learned to distrust it. This episode is about rebuilding that trust, not through a dramatic moment of revelation, but through the small, daily practice of listening to yourself before you reach for external validation. We explore what gets in the way of trusting your own knowing, how to feel the difference between fear and genuine inner guidance, and what becomes possible when you finally stop outsourcing your own clarity. In this episode: * Why women who are deeply intuitive often trust themselves the least * How to distinguish between fear talking and genuine inner wisdom speaking * The daily practices that rebuild self-trust when it’s been eroded by years of second-guessing * What it feels like to finally stop asking for permission and start leading from your own knowing Find me here: Step inside the Luminous Sanctuary and receive the free meditation waiting for you there, no credit card, no catch.

    Feeling Safe to Be Fully Seen

    In this deeply personal episode, I share a tender milestone: for the first time in my life, I’m finally feeling safe to be truly seen — not the version that pleases others, not the polished performer, but the real me in all my evolving, luminous truth. I open up about the old patterns of shape-shifting and hiding, the powerful dreams that revealed where I was still shrinking, and the quiet liberation that’s happening now as I feel safer in my body and energy. This shift is allowing my truest work — the illuminated mandalas and transmissions of inner divinity — to finally emerge. We also journey through a longer, soothing guided meditation to help you begin feeling safe to be fully seen in your own life. If you’ve ever dimmed your light, performed to stay acceptable, or longed to stop hiding, this conversation is an invitation to come home to yourself.

    Survival Strategy

    Most of us aren’t disconnected from ourselves by accident. We learned it. Thoroughly and early. Living from the neck up — staying productive, logical, in control — kept us safe, accepted, and functional in the environments we grew up in. Disconnecting from the body was a brilliant survival strategy. The problem is most of us are still running it. And from that place we genuinely cannot hear ourselves. Not our intuition. Not our creativity. Not what we actually need or want or feel. This episode is about that pattern — where it came from, what it actually costs, and what it looks like to gently, gradually come home to yourself. There’s a guided meditation at the end to close with. Come as you are. Grounded is the New Sexy is not a podcast about becoming better. It is a space for coming alive. Each episode is an invitation into a different quality of contact — with your body, your creativity, your nervous system, your inner world, and the intelligence moving through your life. Here, grounding is not about shrinking, coping, or stabilizing for survival.It is about inhabiting yourself so fully that your life begins to reorganize around what is true. These conversations explore what happens when we stop performing healing, success, or spirituality — and begin living from a deeper internal coherence. The conversations may vary, but the throughline is always the same: Returning you to the place where your choices become simpler, your creativity becomes cleaner, and your life begins to move from a deeper intelligence than effort.

    Survival Strategy

    Learning a New Rhythm

    There’s a quiet shift happening for many of us right now. Not a dramatic reset. Not a sudden knowing. More like a subtle inner reorientation, where intuition is getting clearer, but patience is being asked for at the same time. I’ve been noticing how deeply conditioned we are to rush intuitive sparks into form. An idea arrives. A feeling stirs. A new direction whispers. And almost immediately, we try to make sense of it. Name it. Shape it. Act on it. But I’m learning that when we move too quickly, what we create can feel slightly off, not because the intuition was wrong, but because it wasn’t given time to fully organize itself. Lately, I’ve been practicing something different. Listening longer. Letting curiosity lead. Allowing new rhythms to emerge without pressure. This doesn’t mean doing nothing. It means staying present with what’s alive before asking it to become something. New ways of living, creating, and expressing don’t arrive fully formed. They arrive as sensations first. And when we trust ourselves enough to stay with them, without rushing to make them happen, what eventually emerges feels truer, steadier, and more sustainable. If you’re in a season where things feel undefined but quietly alive, you’re not behind. You may simply be learning a new rhythm.

    Coming Home To Yourself

    Something has been quietly returning to me lately. The pull toward things I loved before the world got loud. Before I learned to be strategic about everything. Before enjoyment became something I had to earn. Reading. Painting just to move paint around with my hands. Swimming. Sunday mornings with nowhere to be. And I realized: this is what it feels like when your nervous system finally exhales.   This episode is about that return. About what gets in the way of it. About why you genuinely cannot hear yourself when your body is running on survival mode. And about what coming home to yourself actually feels like — not as a concept, but as something lived in ordinary, quiet, real moments. There's a short meditation to close with. Come as you are. 🌿   Grounded is the New Sexy is not a podcast about becoming better. It is a space for coming alive. Each episode is an invitation into a different quality of contact — with your body, your creativity, your nervous system, your inner world, and the intelligence moving through your life. Here, grounding is not about shrinking, coping, or stabilizing for survival. It is about inhabiting yourself so fully that your life begins to reorganize around what is true.
