Dear Rising Soul is a podcast about healing, self-awareness, and returning to yourself. Hosted by Naomi Carr, this show explores the deeper patterns that shape our lives — including fear, conditioning, responsibility, relationships, inner peace, and self-trust. Through honest storytelling and reflective conversations, Naomi shares insights from her own healing journey and the work she teaches through the Return to Self Academy. While understanding conditioning is an important part of healing, this podcast also explores the deeper, soul-led aspects of growth — including intuition, energy, and reconnecting with the inner wisdom that guides transformation. These conversations are an invitation to slow down, reflect, and remember who you are beneath the roles and patterns you were taught to carry. Remember. Rise. Heal.

    Losing Yourself in the People You Love: How to Stay Yourself in Love, Friendship, and Family

    Send us Fan Mail We need each other. And the people we need the most are so often the ones who can hurt us the deepest. In this episode, I explore the tender complexity of loving others while remaining true to ourselves. Drawing from nearly three decades of marriage and the relationships we navigate with family, friends, and children, we look at how easily we can lose ourselves in the people we love, the importance of boundaries and emotional safety, and why we cannot do another person's healing for them. At the heart of this conversation is a question: How do we love deeply, stay connected, and still remain ourselves?

    The Quiet Ways You Abandon Yourself

    Send us Fan Mail The quiet ways we abandon ourselves almost never look like anything — a soft “I’m fine,” a yes you didn’t mean, giving until there’s nothing left for you. In this episode of Dear Rising Soul, I open up about self-abandonment, people-pleasing, and the small, everyday signs most of us never notice — from the fixer role, to burnout, to the resentment that creeps in when our own needs go unmet. I share what it’s looked like in my own life, in my marriage, and in healing my nervous system — and the one question underneath all of it: when do you choose you? If you’ve spent years putting everyone else first and somewhere along the way lost touch with what you even want, this one’s for you.

    The Courage and Freedom to Be You

    Send us Fan Mail You’ve begun to accept who you are. But what happens when living that truth means changing the life, and the relationships, you’ve always known? In this episode, we explore the courage to be yourself, speak honestly about what matters, and move toward a life that feels more like your own. Through my experience writing Uprooting Shame and Guilt, I share the personal stakes of telling my truth, and why being brave and feeling free aren’t always the same thing.

    Self-Acceptance: Learning to Love Yourself at Every Stage of Life

    Send us Fan Mail How do you learn to accept yourself when you’ve spent years trying to change, fix, or outrun who you are? In this episode, I explore self-acceptance, self-love, healing, and what it means to stop rejecting the person you were, the person you are, and the person you’re still growing into. This is a conversation about making peace with your past, questioning the standards you’ve been measuring yourself against, and learning to build a relationship with yourself that isn’t based on being fixed, finished, or perfect first.

    The Quiet Ways We're Divinely Guided

    Send us Fan Mail How do you know when intuition is guiding you, and how can you tell the difference between inner knowing and fear? In this episode, I explore the quiet ways divine guidance can show up in everyday life, through the body, relationships, creativity, dreams, and those persistent nudges we so often talk ourselves out of. I also share some of the ways guidance has shown up in my own life, and why learning to trust that inner compass can change the way we move through the world. Whether you call it intuition, God, energy, your higher self, spirit guides, or simply your inner knowing, this conversation is an invitation to get quiet and notice what may already be trying to reach you.

    Healing Body Shame and Rebuilding Trust

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when you spend years seeing your own body as something to fix, hide, control, or apologize for? In this conversation, I explore where body shame begins, how those early messages can shape the way we see ourselves for years, and what it means to rebuild a relationship with the body that has carried us through everything. I share pieces of my own story with weight, comparison, shame, and learning to see my body differently, while looking at the deeper work of body acceptance, self-trust, and making peace with the body you are in.

    Choosing Peace in a Fearful World

    Send us Fan Mail Why does the world feel so full of fear, and what happens when we are exposed to it all day long? In this conversation, I reflect on my own relationship with fear, including what I experienced during the early days of COVID, and how I learned to step back from the noise without disconnecting from reality. We explore the difference between real fear and fear that keeps us anxious, reactive, and constantly bracing for what comes next.

    Hustle Culture and the Body's Breaking Point | Heart to Heart

    Send us Fan Mail Why are we all so tired? In this Sunday Heart to Heart, I sit with the kind of bone-deep exhaustion that no amount of sleep seems to fix, and the story so many of us were handed: that our worth is measured by how much we produce. This one is a gentle look at hustle culture, burnout, and what it really costs us to keep pushing. If you have forgotten that you are allowed to rest without earning it first, come sit with me, dear soul. When that never-enough feeling runs deeper than the culture around us, it often traces back to a father wound. I sit with that more fully here: [father wound link] Ready to go deeper? The Return to Self Method is the guided journey I created to help you understand and change the patterns beneath the surface. https://naomicarr.me/the-return-to-self-method Themes: hustle culture, burnout, rest, self-worth, and slowing down.
