    The Healing Power of Flow in Art After Profound Loss

    This week in TNR, Ashley Chappell joins me, and I was riveted during this entire conversation. Ashley and I met a handful of years back while I was still managing the photography team at Red Bull. She had shared her personal story with me just recently, and I’m grateful that she chose to share it here because I know that she’s going to inspire anyone else who listens in. Ashley shares her poignant story of transitioning from nursing to photography. After being diagnosed with lupus and experiencing the profound loss of her son (after losing her sister five years prior), she took a step back from her hospice nursing career. This life-altering experience led her to embrace photography not just as a profession, but as a means of expressing her inner world. “I had a second chance at life... I want to do something with my life, something that I want to do.” We get into what it’s like for her when she’s deeply in flow — when the room goes silent — and her intuition and something outside of herself just takes over. That’s when she creates something otherworldly kind of beautiful … BONUS: This week’s thumbnail background photo is one of Ashley’s personal images!

    For my grandmother: Honoring the women who came before us

    I felt pulled to put my thoughts into a voice memo today. My grandmother popped into my psyche last night (I mean, she’s always there because she’s my spirit guide), but something prompted me to share how she sent me a very clear message of comfort on my 40th birthday three years ago. It seemed to resonate with a lot of people, so I wanted to pass the message along and tell more stories. Is there a woman who you’d like to honor?

    From a mental performance coach: you MUST stop doubting yourself, you have innate power

    “It was my mental health and bipolar diagnosis that led me along a path of spirituality.” At just 23, after moving to Seattle, Malisa Nguyen faced immense challenges in her career and mental health, often retreating to the bathroom during busy shifts to manage anxiety attacks. It was during this challenging moment in her life that she sought guidance from a psychic. They encouraged her to pursue certification in holistic health and wellness. This advice would set her on a path of discovery. Malisa’s spiritual awakening happened in 2018. After she opened that portal, she began to see the world (and herself) in a completely new way. That informed her career path, shifting over into mental performance coaching. She’s now living a very aligned life, and she hopes that her story will encourage other women to follow their own signals and inner guidance to achieve their own version of alingment Follow + connect with Malisa Nguyen ⤵️ https://www.linkedin.com/in/malisa-nguyen/ https://www.instagram.com/malisatnguyen/ Follow TNR on Substack + socials: https://www.youtube.com/@thenakedroompod https://substack.com/@thenakedroompod https://www.instagram.com/thenakedroompod https://www.tiktok.com/@thenakedroompod Wanna write in with a question?

    Your inner voice is a REALLY good driver ... give her the steering wheel

    This is my first solo episode. I’ve been meaning to get into the habit of doing them regularly, but life has been catching up to me … I have so many thoughts on so many things, and I’ve been feeling compelled to make some more “snackable” episodes. Today, I felt pulled to chat with y’all about listening to our inner voice and letting our intuition be in the driver’s seat more often. This episode is inspired by a two things: a recent mediation where my inner voice gave me the download to (over)think less and just DO more; AND a coaching session where my friend, Nina, hit home the point that our first instinct is usually the most aligned. It’s in the moments that follow where our ego changes our mind: the time when we talk ourselves out of something we were super jazzed on. We women are innately intuitive: it’s one of our greatest gifts. But society (and the men running it) are constantly telling us to push it down. But what would happen if we stopped listening to them and started tapping into our own inner guidance? I’ll tell you what … MAGIC ✨ Follow TNR on Substack + socials: https://www.youtube.com/@thenakedroompod https://substack.com/@thenakedroompod https://www.instagram.com/thenakedroompod https://www.tiktok.com/@thenakedroompod Wanna write in with a question?
