    Light Up with Adera – Featuring Rebecca Harrison

    What if your next chapter is waiting on the other side of one brave decision? Life rarely unfolds the way we expect. Sometimes we outgrow careers. Sometimes our children grow up. Sometimes a dream changes. And sometimes we simply wake up knowing we're meant for something more. In this episode of Light Up with Adera, I'm joined by the incredible Rebecca Harrison—writer, coach, author, traveler, former personal trainer, ferry captain (yes, really!), and someone who continues to reinvent herself with curiosity, courage, and an open heart. Rather than letting fear keep her stuck, Rebecca has learned to trust the quiet nudges that lead her toward a more meaningful, adventurous life. From co-creating the Family Tree book series to traveling the world through house sitting, writing about her experiences, and embracing unexpected opportunities, she reminds us that there isn't just one path to purpose. If you've been feeling like you're ready for a change—but aren't sure what's next—this conversation is for you. In this episode we explore: ✨ Why it's never too late to reinvent yourself  ✨ Following curiosity instead of fear  ✨ Finding purpose in every season of life  ✨ Why human connection and storytelling matter  ✨ The courage to say yes to unexpected opportunities  ✨ Creating a life that truly lights you up As Rebecca says so beautifully, we're here to grow, to have adventures, and to create a life that feels fulfilling—not just one that looks good on paper. If your heart has been whispering that it's time for something different... let this be your sign. 🎧 Listen now, and if you enjoy the conversation, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who's ready to embrace their next chapter.

    Light Up Your Life: Following What Excites and Scares You

    Today on Light Up With Adera, I sat down with three incredible women from the Light Up community for a heartfelt conversation about what happens when you stop waiting for certainty and start saying yes to the things that truly light you up. Together we explored what it means to trust the process—even when the path ahead feels unknown. We talked about leaving comfort zones, following unexpected opportunities, moving through fear, and taking those tiny courageous steps toward the life and business you're dreaming of. From launching businesses and hosting retreats to building communities and listening to divine guidance, this conversation is full of honest stories, laughter, wisdom, and reminders that you do not need all the answers before you begin. Inside this episode we discuss: ✨ Why fear often shows up right before growth  ✨ The power of community and support  ✨ Taking "one small step" instead of trying to leap the whole mountain  ✨ Trusting signs, intuition, and unexpected opportunities  ✨ Moving beyond self-doubt and limiting stories  ✨ Why what scares you may also be what lights you up most If you've been putting off the thing you know you're meant to do, this episode may be the encouragement you need. Because sometimes you’re not stepping off a cliff… You’re simply stepping off the curb.

    Light Up with Adera – Featuring Maggie Reidy

    In this week’s episode, I sit down with the radiant and deeply wise Maggie Reidy, a transformational coach who has spent over three decades helping women reconnect with their truth, reclaim their power, and stand tall in their own light. Maggie supports women who “do it all” and often lose themselves in the storm—guiding them back to their inner lighthouse, that steady beam of essence, purpose, and self-expression. Together, we explore what it means to move through life’s transitions with grace, curiosity, and self-compassion. We talk about releasing what no longer serves us, remembering who we truly are beneath the noise, and rediscovering the parts of ourselves that are ready to rise. Maggie shares her beautiful philosophy of continuous growth—how, like the seasons, we are always transforming, expanding, and cultivating new parts of our identity. We also dive into her powerful Lighthouse Circles, intimate six-week journeys where women come together to reconnect with their light, reignite their purpose, and stand in full authenticity. Maggie’s grounding presence, decades of therapeutic expertise, and soul-rooted guidance make this conversation feel like a warm homecoming. If you’re in a season of change…  If you’re asking “Who am I now?” or “What lights me up?”…  If you’re ready to shine through the storm instead of trying to calm it…  This episode is your invitation. Tune in, take a breath, and let this be a reminder:  You are a lighthouse. You were never meant to calm the storm—only to shine through it.
