    Shifts & Giggles: Beth chats with Meg Reilly about the subconscious and the Echoes Deck

    There are moments in life when something inside of us whispers… Not loudly. Not dramatically. But persistently. A knowing. An echo. A quiet invitation to look deeper. I’ve always been fascinated by what lives beneath the surface — beneath the roles we play, beneath the stories we tell, beneath the carefully constructed identities. What lives in the subconscious? What shapes us? What calls us forward? Today’s guest is someone who has devoted her life to listening to those deeper currents. Meg Reilly is a hypnotist, a counselor, and the creator of the Echoes Deck — but those are just titles. What really moves me about Meg is her devotion to the unseen… the inner landscapes… the places most people are afraid to explore. So take a breath. Settle in. And join me for this intimate and soulful conversation with Meg Reilly.

    Shifts & Giggles: Beth chats with Michelle Giliberto about the power of tuning in.

    Welcome back to Shifts & Giggles — the place where we explore the holy shifts that move us from where we are… to where we’re meant to be — with curiosity, compassion, and yes, a few giggles along the way. In a world that feels louder, faster, and more chaotic by the day, today’s conversation is an invitation to do something quietly radical: turn inward. Because when the outside world feels unsteady, our inner frequency matters more than ever. I’m especially delighted to welcome back a return guest who embodies this work in such a beautiful, grounded way — Michelle Giliberto, founder of Purely Resonance. Michelle’s work lives at the intersection of energy, intention, and transformation — and yes, she even has a vibrational water called Holy Shift, which feels perfectly aligned with today’s conversation. Together, we’re talking about what a holy shift really is — how it’s different from change, why frequency matters, and how tuning inward can become our most powerful compass when life feels uncertain. So take a breath.Settle in.And let’s explore the shifts — and the giggles — together. To Contact Michelle at Purely Resonance: www.PurelyResonance.com

    Seema Dasani isn’t just my guest — she’s been my therapist, teacher, and a powerful catalyst for transformation in my own life.

    Shifts & Giggles: Beth chats with Matthew Broad about being a creative pied piper.

    Get ready for a real deep dive conversation.My next guest on Shifts & Giggles is none other than the magical and multi-talented Matthew Broad. Matthew is a true pied piper of play and connection—leading community drumming circles for over 25 years, teaching people of all ages and skill levels how to find their rhythm, listen to one another, and create music together in just minutes.  His drumming circles build community, melt away stress, and spark pure joy. But Matthew’s creativity doesn’t stop there—he’s also an author, a pie maker (yes, pie! ), and a freehand mandala artist whose work flows directly from a divine source of inspiration. What started with painting gratitude stones and garden rocks has blossomed into hundreds of vibrant mandalas on rocks, tiles, glass, canvas, and more. Each piece is a meditation, a joyful act of acceptance, and a reminder that perfection isn’t the goal—presence and play are.  Matthew brings music, art, presence and laughter wherever he goes, and I can’t wait to see where our conversation takes us. One thing’s for sure: it will be deep, meaningful, and sprinkled with some laughter too. To Connect with Matthew Broad: www.FreeHandMandala.com

    Shifts & Giggles: Beth chats with Dr. Nancy Byrne about her important work helping women glow from the inside out.

    Welcome to Shifts and Giggles, where we laugh through life's bumps, cry through the cracks, and honor the beautiful mess of being human. Today’s guest is someone who embodies grace under fire. Dr. Nancy Byrne is a radiant healer, a doctor of Chinese Medicine, and a true soul alchemist whose work helps women reclaim their inner and outer glow. She’s the kind of practitioner who can lift your facial features and your spirit in one session—and let’s be honest, that’s magic. But Nancy’s light wasn’t born from ease. She’s here today to share not just her expertise in acupuncture, gua sha, and holistic facials—but also the deep, gritty healing she’s walked through herself. From living with Interstitial Cystitis, to surviving a near-fatal attack by a stranger, to navigating the heartbreak of betrayal by someone she once trusted—Nancy knows what it means to rebuild from rubble. And yet she brings to her work a softness, a strength, and a sparkle that tells the truth: your glow doesn’t come from a product, it comes from your power. So let’s take a breath, open our hearts, and welcome the luminous, resilient, and deeply real Dr. Nancy Byrne to Shifts and Giggles—where beauty meets bravery, and everything is medicine.

    Shifts & Giggles: Beth chats with Michelle Giliberto about frequency, flow and the power of healing.

    Welcome back to Shifts & Giggles! Today, I am so delighted to introduce you to my guest and dear friend, Michelle Giliberto — intuitive healer, visionary leader, and CEO of Purely Resonance™.  Michelle is carrying forward the pioneering legacy of Healers Who Share, transforming it into a cutting-edge system of quantum frequency formulas that empower transformation on every level: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Her journey into this work began not in a boardroom, but in her own home — as a mom searching for healing solutions for herself and her children.  That path of love, research, and relentless curiosity led her to vibrational medicine, to co-founding the nonprofit Epidemic Answers, and ultimately to guiding Purely Resonance™ into its next evolution. Michelle blends her background in communications, her training in Reiki, ThetaHealing®, and medical intuition, with her deep dedication to research and development.  She continues to create state-of-the-art formulas and tools that help people across the World reconnect to their innate ability to heal and thrive. One of the things I love most is how Michelle lives the truth that we all have intuitive gifts and that creation itself is the highest form of service.  Her work is a living reminder that healing can be both miraculous and accessible — and that the waters she stewards carry both science and soul. So get ready for a conversation that flows with insight, resonance, and maybe even a few giggles along the way.
