    Ep 32 - If 'What About Me?' Keeps Coming Up, Watch This

    What about me? If that question keeps coming up in midlife, this episode is for you. There's a moment that keeps showing up for so many of us. Late at night. In the car. On a random Wednesday morning when the house is finally quiet. The question floats up: What about me? And almost immediately: Who am I to even ask that? In this solo episode, I'm naming what's actually happening in this season for women in their late 30s, 40s, and 50s. Why so many of us feel "soul tired." Why this chapter isn't a crisis at all. It's a homecoming. I'm sharing the deeper practice of yoga (way beyond the poses), the slow work of unbecoming, and the truth that you're not falling apart. You're waking up. Key takeaways: Midlife isn't a crisis. It's a homecoming. The tiredness you're feeling isn't weakness, it's wisdom. Yoga, the deeper practice, is one of the most ancient pathways for the work of unbecoming. Putting down what's no longer yours to carry so you can reconnect with who you've always been. Through svadhyaya (self-study), you stop seeking happiness in the next achievement and start hearing your own knowing again. You learn to trust yourself, balance effort with ease, and feel truly alive in your own life.

    Ep 31 - When Something's Off (And You Can't Explain Why)

    Doors to Radiantly Rooted open Monday, May 18th. Join the waitlist at rachelhupp.com/radiantlyrooted to be the first to know when enrollment opens. Have you ever had the experience of looking at your life on paper, seeing that everything checks out, and still feeling like something is quietly off? That gap between what your life looks like and what it feels like to live inside it is one of the most isolating feelings a woman can carry, and it is so much more common than we admit. In this episode, I'm telling the story of the first house I ever bought back in 2011, and how it taught me something I didn't fully understand at the time. I'm sharing what I've learned about the hidden exhaustion of capable women, why a long, slow exhale is one of the simplest nervous system tools you have, and the body check-in practice I come back to again and again. We also get into the yoga concept of prana, and the question I've gotten in the habit of asking myself before bed that's quietly changed how I move through my weeks. Key takeaways: The hardest exhaustion to explain isn't physical. It's the slow disconnection that happens when your body moves through the day but you've barely experienced any of it. You can't outthink a body or a mind that are physically and mentally exhausted. A longer exhale tells your nervous system it's safe. Energy isn't designed to move in one direction forever. Ask yourself, "Is any of this coming back to me?"

    Ep 30 - Confidence Isn't the Problem: How to Rebuild Self-Trust (with the Chakra Map)

    You can run a complicated life with your eyes closed. You can give your best friend advice that changes hers. And then you go home, and you have no idea what you actually want. What if that's not a confidence problem? In this episode, Rachel names the gap between confidence and self-trust, explains why no amount of achievement closes it, and shares how the chakras work as a layered roadmap for rebuilding your relationship with your own inner voice. Key takeaways: Confidence is about ability. Self-trust is about authority. They are two different muscles built in two different parts of you, and you can be wildly capable while completely disconnected from your own inner knowing. Self-trust isn't a thought. It is a body-level capacity that lives in the five-second window between what your body knows and what your mind talks itself out of. The chakras, taken out of the New Age aisle, are one of the most precise roadmaps for rebuilding self-trust layer by layer, from root safety up to crown wholeness.

    Ep 29 - Where Does Your Energy Need Attention? An Introduction to the Chakras

    There's a feeling a lot of women carry that doesn't have a clean path towards understanding Not anxiety exactly. Not depression exactly. Just a sense that something is off. Your life looks fine on paper. So why does it feel like this? In this episode, Rachel introduces the chakras as one of the most practical frameworks she's ever worked with. Not as a mystical concept, but as a way of locating where your energy is, where it's flowing, and where it's gotten stuck. She walks through all seven energy centers, what each governs, and what it feels like when each is balanced or out of balance. By the end, you'll have language for what you've been carrying, a way to identify which one or two chakras are most calling for your attention, and a free quiz to make it personal to your life. Key takeaways: The chakras aren't about magic. They're a practical compass for paying attention to where energy is stuck, flowing, or asking for support. Each chakra has specific signs of balance and imbalance, so instead of "something feels wrong but I don't know what," you can locate it in the body. Most of us don't have all seven chakras out of balance at once. There are usually one or two calling for attention, and that's where the work begins.

    Ep 28 - Going Deeper: What 30 Years of Practice Taught Me About Coming Home to Myself

    Most of yoga happens off the mat. In this episode of Radiantly Rooted with Rachel, I'm sharing what nearly 30 years of practice has taught me about the yoga you can't see, the work that actually changes your life. So many women I talk to feel okay on their mat and disconnected everywhere else. I walk you through the slowing down I resisted, the two-minute meditation practice that finally worked, the way yoga rewrote my relationship with food and my body, and the pivotal year I sold the house I thought I was supposed to want, bought a falling-down cabin in the woods, and started trusting myself for real. What we cover: The yoga that changes your life is the one you can't see. The postures are only the tip of it. You don't have to stop thinking to meditate. You just have to start. Two minutes a day is enough. Nervous system regulation is the foundation of self-trust and everything you build on top of it. If you don't know who you are, it's really hard to know what you want.

    Ep 27 - Why Managing Stress Isn't Enough

    If you're doing all the right things and still feel wired, exhausted, and like something is just off, this episode is for you. Managing stress and actually resetting your nervous system are not the same thing. In this episode, Rachel breaks down why so many women stay stuck in survival mode even when they're doing everything right, what chronic stress is actually doing to your body and your relationship with rest, and what it means to work at the level of the whole self instead of just coping. She also shares her own burnout story, including the procrastination nobody talks about after leaving a high-stress career, and guides you through a simple extended exhale breathing practice you can use right now to start to shift your state. Key takeaways: Coping is reactive. Resetting works at the source. Your nervous system knows when your life doesn't fit you, even when your mind says it's fine. Burnout rewires your relationship with rest itself. Whole body reset means body, mind, heart, and soul in conversation with each other. Extended exhale breathing: inhale four counts, exhale eight. Do three rounds and notice the shift.Resources mentioned: Breathe Again: A Stress Course for Women — save 25% through April 30 with code STRESSLESS at rachelhupp.com/stressless

    26 - Self-Empowered Vitality with Jen Tullo

    So many women have spent years being dismissed by doctors, told their symptoms are in their head, or left feeling like their body is broken. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. I'm sitting down with Jen Tullo, a bioregional herbalist and clinical nutrition master's student, to talk about self-empowered healing after chronic illness and how to rebuild trust in your own intuition while still partnering with healthcare providers. Jen shares her experience with POTS and dysautonomia, years of being dismissed and misdiagnosed from age 15 until finally receiving a diagnosis in 2021. We explore how to reframe "wrong turns" as learning experiences, remove moral judgment from health decisions, and align your choices with your values. Whether you're navigating chronic illness, feeling disconnected from your body's wisdom, or struggling to advocate for yourself in the medical system, you'll walk away with a practical framework for values-based health decisions. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Healthcare should be collaborative, not outsourced. Treat your relationship with practitioners as a partnership where you bring lived experience and they bring expertise. There are no "wrong" decisions, only informative ones. Remove moral judgment from health choices and see each decision as data about what works for your body. The values-based framework: Identify your core values, define what they mean, anticipate obstacles, communicate needs, and implement small changes in your space, practices, and schedule. ABOUT JEN TULLO: Jen is a Bioregional Herbalist and Master's Student of Clinical Nutrition, Therapeutic Yoga Trainer & Guide. After 25 years of self-empowered healing, she now encourages others to discover their own healing power through natural plant medicines, local foods, and reconnection with ecosystems and community.

    25 - Your Body Already Knows: Embodied Intuition & the Art of Letting Go with Dina Berrin

    Ep. 24 - Radiantly Rooted with Rachel What if the answers you've been searching for aren't out there at all? What if they've been quietly waiting inside you, beneath all the noise, comparison, and "shoulds" that drown them out? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Dina Berrin, a certified life coach, intuitive guide, and author of The Way Within: Igniting Your Intuition with Sacred Tools. Dina has a beautiful way of helping women understand exactly where they are emotionally and energetically so they can set healthy boundaries, trust themselves, and move forward with clarity instead of overwhelm. We talk about what it takes to reconnect with your intuition, how to distinguish between anxiety and intuition (they feel so different in the body), and why slowing down is the only way to hear yourself again. Whether you've lost touch with your inner voice or you're just starting to hear those quiet nudges, this conversation will meet you right where you are. 🎯 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Intuition is a muscle and like any muscle, it gets stronger with practice. You don't have to trust it for the big decisions right away. Start small. Which grocery line feels faster? What does your gut say before a meeting? The more you practice listening, the clearer it gets. 2️⃣ Anxiety feels urgent and repetitive. Intuition feels steady and body-based. Learn to tell the difference by slowing down enough to notice what's happening in your body, not just what's spinning in your head. Intuition doesn't shout. It whispers. 3️⃣ You never fail, you either win or you learn. Stop waiting to feel "ready." Your future self isn't more qualified than you are right now. She just started taking the next small step, and then the one after that. What if you're already ready? ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:56 Dina's Intuition Journey 02:26 Guiding Women Back 05:06 Intuition Is a Muscle 09:59 Fear vs Love Choices 13:13 Breathwork and Embodiment 15:59 Future Self and Readiness 18:42 Slowing Down Practice 27:25 Book and Sacred Tools 30:05 Anxiety vs Intuition 30:53 Self Care Commitments 31:39 Final Nugget and Goodbye 🔗 RESOURCES MENTIONED: Dina's Book: The Way Within: Igniting Your Intuition with Sacred Tools - A beginner-friendly guide to reconnecting with your inner wisdom using tarot, numerology, and charm casting https://a.co/d/0gvD67mR Work with Dina: • The Alignment Experience (year-long program) - https://dinaberrin.com/the-alignment-experience-2026/ • One-on-One Tarot & Numerology Sessions - https://dinaberrin.com/product/one-on-one-2/ • Website: www.dinaberrin.com Connect with Dina: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dinaberrin/ • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DinaBerrinTarot/ • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dinaberrin5975 • LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/dina-perlmutter-berrin-cpcc-pcc-5b812022 👋 HI, I'M RACHEL HUPP CLINE I'm a yoga teacher, life coach, and host of Radiantly Rooted with Rachel.
