    Episode 155 - Coming Back Out Into the World (In Sacred Alignment)

    In this week’s episode, I share a deeply personal journey of navigating grief, honoring my energy, and following the sacred nudges that led me back out into the world in a truly aligned way. I felt called to explore today’s topic: what it means for sensitive, intuitive women to step back into the world after periods of retreat, healing, and sacred solitude. I talk about:✨ The lessons I learned during lockdown about honoring my sensitivity and building self-trust.✨ How to listen to your sacred yes and sacred no and create boundaries that truly serve you.✨ The process of moving from hermit-mode into aligned community connection.✨ Why nervous system safety and small daily acts of self-trust are the foundation for big, soul-led leaps.✨ How following nudges (even when they don’t make logical sense) always leads to magic. And I share some exciting news:🌿 I’ll be holding an in-person Women’s Circle & Mini Retreat in Norfolk on September 27th, 2025 — spaces are already filling fast.🌿 For those who can’t attend in person, I’ll also be running a special online event based on my Magnetic Mastery course at the end of September. (Quantum Queen members, you’ll get access included!) This episode is a reminder that your sensitivity is sacred, your body knows the way, and building trust with yourself is the path to moving back out into the world — in a way that feels nourishing, safe, and magnetic.
