    From Madonna to Mentor: Evelyne Brink on Owning Your Voice & Power

    ✨ What if the version of you that the world truly needs… is the one you’ve spent years hiding? ✨ In this soul-awakening episode of the Shine Within Podcast, I sit down with the radiant and unapologetically real Evelyne Brink, former Europe’s #1 Madonna impersonator turned Voice & Visibility Coach for high-impact leaders. Evelyne takes us on an unforgettable journey — from center stage performing as a global icon to helping women rediscover the power of their own voice, truth, and presence. We dive deep into the trance of perfectionism and people-pleasing, exploring why so many women silence their inner truth to fit into boxes that were never meant for them. Evelyne breaks down how authentic expression is not only liberating — it’s life-giving. She shares powerful tools and soulful wisdom to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have gone quiet — after burnout, motherhood, trauma, or simply trying to “be enough.” You’ll hear us talk about why expression is aliveness, how to let go of the performance and be fully YOU, and why your story, your voice, and your truth are exactly what this world needs right now. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your voice or unsure how to show up in your full light… this episode will meet you where you are and help you rise.

    Unmasking the Trance of Unworthiness: Monica Rodgers on Reclaiming Your True Self

    What if the voice in your head telling you you're not enough…was never really yours to begin with? In this powerful episode of the Shine Within Podcast, Gina Kunadian sits down with transformational guide and The Revelation Project podcast host Monica Rodgers to explore the insidious "trance of unworthiness"—a subconscious belief system that keeps so many women stuck in patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and performance. Monica shares her own awakening journey, from living a life that looked successful on the outside to unraveling the deep inner narratives that kept her disconnected from her truth. She introduces us to practices like medicine painting, embodiment work, and mythological storytelling that support women in reclaiming their authentic voice and remembering their innate wholeness. Together, Gina and Monica unpack how reclaiming emotional expression, self-approval, and radical honesty can unlock a new way of living—one rooted in feminine power and truth. This episode is an invitation to take off the mask, turn inward, and shine from your most authentic self. Whether you’ve been navigating burnout, identity shifts, or a quiet longing for more, Monica’s insights will leave you feeling seen, stirred, and spiritually supported.

    ✨ What if the root cause of your anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, or hormonal imbalance… wasn’t in your head—but in your gut? In this deeply eye-opening episode of the Shine Within Podcast, I sit down with the brilliant Dr. Loredana Shapson, a licensed pharmacist turned holistic health practitioner, who now empowers women to heal naturally by addressing the true root causes of their symptoms.

    Breaking the Silence: Andrea Leeb’s Memoir, Mission, and Message for Survivors

    Have you ever wondered what it truly takes to reclaim your voice after years—maybe even decades—of silence? In this deeply moving episode of the Shine Within Podcast, I sit down with Andrea Leeb, author of the courageous memoir Such a Pretty Picture, to explore the raw and real journey from trauma to healing. Andrea shares her story of surviving childhood sexual abuse, the heavy weight of secrecy she carried for years, and how writing her memoir became a profound act of reclamation and liberation. Together, we talk about how trauma lives in the body, what it means to forgive (or not forgive), and how survivors can begin to find safety, strength, and self-love again. Andrea also opens up about her work advocating for other survivors, her involvement with the UCLA Rape Treatment Center, and how stepping into her truth created a ripple effect of healing and hope for others. If you or someone you love has ever felt lost in the shadows of their past, this conversation is a reminder that it’s never too late to shine from within.

    From Scarcity to Empowered Abundance with Scarlett Stanhope

    What if abundance had nothing to do with how much money you make—and everything to do with how you choose to live today? In this inspiring episode of the Shine Within Podcast, I sit down with Scarlett Stanhope, also known as The Biz Hippie, to explore how our relationship with money shapes not only our financial reality but also our sense of self-worth, joy, and freedom. Scarlett shares her powerful journey from corporate success to rock bottom to creating Empowered Abundance, her signature program that blends tangible money management strategies with deep energetic and mindset work. Together, we dive into topics like why more money doesn’t automatically solve money problems, the root causes of sales blocks, how to make money management feel playful, and the role of identity in unlocking financial flow. Scarlett’s wisdom will encourage you to see abundance not as something far off in the future but as a way of living fully in the present.
