    Breaking Free From Labels: What the Rooted with FitZen Retreat Taught Me

    What happens when you remove the labels you’ve carried for years? In this solo episode, Rachel Fitzpatrick reflects on the powerful experience of hosting the Rooted with FitZen Retreat — a weekend centered around self-awareness, authenticity, and remembering who we are beneath the identities we've collected over time. Through yoga, breathwork, deep conversation, and intentional reflection, something unexpected happened: people began to release the labels they thought defined them. “You’re too ambitious.”  “You’re too emotional.”  “You’re too much.” These stories often become the quiet rules we live by. But what if they were never ours to begin with? Rachel shares the biggest insights from the retreat — including the idea of living with your lid open, allowing curiosity, courage, and growth to replace fear and self-protection. This episode explores how vulnerability in community creates transformation, and why small, intentional spaces like retreats can lea Lotus and LunaUse promo code Fitzen at checkout for 20% off (sale items not included)Liforme Yoga MatsUse code FitZen at checkout for a discount!Favorite Yoga Leggings: prAna HeavanaI highly recommend the ones without pockets- best I have found to date.RageCreate | Affirmations|Oracles & moreThere are over 1 million of our affirmation cards floating around the world.

    The Infinity Within: Self-Discovery, Purpose & Life as a Game with Kris Land

    In this expansive and grounding conversation, Rachel Fitzpatrick sits down with Kris Land, author of the award-winning book The Infinity Within, to explore self-discovery, purpose, and what it means to experience life as a conscious participant rather than a passive observer. Kris shares the inspiration behind his writing, the role mentorship has played in his personal evolution, and how fear can serve as a powerful signpost for growth rather than something to avoid. Together, they explore the idea of life as a game — one filled with lessons, rules, and experiences designed to help us remember who we truly are. The conversation weaves through spirituality, frequency, co-creation, and the power of asking meaningful questions. Kris also reflects on the journey of writing The Infinity Within and the transformative path of its central character, Gabriel, highlighting universal truths about awareness, belief, and the illusion of separation. This episode is an invitation to reconnect with purpose, raise your frequency, and remember the infinite intelligence already within you.  If you’ve been searching for meaning, clarity, or purpose outside yourself — this conversation gently invites you back inward.  Lotus and LunaUse promo code Fitzen at checkout for 20% off (sale items not included)Liforme Yoga MatsUse code FitZen at checkout for a discount!Favorite Yoga Leggings: prAna HeavanaI highly recommend the ones without pockets- best I have found to date.RageCreate | Affirmations|Oracles & moreThere are over 1 million of our affirmation cards floating around the world.
