    Season 2, Episode 7: Recognizing Who You Are with Anika Apple

    Healing is the doorway to becoming fully who you are! In this soulful episode of the Beyonding Podcast, Kailei Carr and Myra Capri sit down with author, spiritual guide, and intuitive Anika Apple to explore self-acceptance, divine wisdom, and the power of love as a pathway to healing. Drawing from her book Healing Is Required, Anika shares how she came to understand healing as an essential part of creating the life we are meant to live. Together, they explore what gets in the way of feeling free enough to accept ourselves and receive love, why we often make ourselves smaller to feel safe, and what becomes possible when we give ourselves permission to be fully seen. Anika reminds us that as the world continues to shift around us, we are not the first to walk this path—we carry divine wisdom within us and have the capacity to create and choose differently at this moment. Delve into what would it look like to say yes to yourself as freely as you say yes to everyone else? FYI, enjoy a bit of pre-show grounding ahead of this episode.  This is beyonding.

    Season 2, Epsiode 3: Live Sovereign with Radiah Rhodes

    What does it mean to live a sovereign life? In this powerful episode of the Beyonding Podcast, co-hosts Kailei Carr and Myra Capri sit down with author, human transformation thought leader, founder, and well-being advisor, Radiah Rhodes, to explore the concept of sovereignty—the ability to have supreme authority who you are and how you want to live your life. Drawing from the Evok methodology she created, Radiah shares why we are all born with the capacity for self-determination, yet often find ourselves disconnected from it through conditioning, internal patterns, and external expectations. Together, they explore what it means to return to your truth, embrace the fullness of who you are, and consciously choose a life aligned with your deepest values. The conversation dives into the difference between discipline and devotion, identity-led transformation, and the importance of expanding our awareness of what is possible for ourselves. As Radiah reminds us, sovereignty is not about becoming someone new…it's about reclaiming who you've always been. If you've ever felt called to stop shrinking, think more of yourself, and fully express who you are, this episode is for you. Radiah generously gifted Beyonding podcast listeners free access to the first issue of Radiah's new digital magazine, Live Sovereign. In the issue, there is a powerful Identity Worksheet which will be your growthwork!

ABOUT RADIAH RHODES As the founder of Evók and author of Being Is the New Doing, Radiah has spent more than twenty-five years studying the relationship between identity, intention, leadership, well-being, and human potential. Her journey began in engineering and executive leadership, where she learned to solve complex problems, build teams, and deliver results. Yet despite professional success, she discovered a truth that many high achievers eventually encounter: accomplishment alone does not create peace, fulfillment, or freedom. Today, through Evók's educational platforms, ICF-accredited certifications, leadership assessments, licensing programs, and the Live Sovereign™ publication, Radiah helps people reconnect with the source of their lives—their identity—and build everything else from there. Her work has supported executives, entrepreneurs, educators, coaches, organizations, and families seeking a more integrated way to live and lead. Radiah is also a wife, mother, investor, entrepreneur, and legacy builder who believes that the greatest measure of success is not what we accumulate, but what we cultivate within ourselves and pass forward to others.
