Protector
May 13, 2024 03:10 - 45 minutes - 41.9 MBThis healing journey has been hard but victorious. Going from working through feeling neglected and abandoned and forgiving my parents for that and then being hit in the face with another feeling, the feeling of not being protected was by far the most difficult of all to overcome. Come take a ride with me on this episode where I discuss the ripple effect of how I navigated trauma and pieced together behaviors and beliefs that have kept me stuck in the divine masculine.
Revelations of 2023
February 07, 2024 16:14 - 40 minutes - 37.4 MBHappy New Year, Happy Holidays- all the happys! I am not sure if 2023 was a rough year for many of you but it definitely was for me and a lot of my friends. There were planets in retrograde that finally all went direct Jan 1, karmic cycles had finally come full circle, and boy did it feel heavy at times. It was a year of struggles that gave birth to realizations and lessons. It also gave birth to creativity and new projects, new connections and exciting ventures. As we enter 2024, we may be f...

Hi, my name is Imposter Syndrome nice to meet you! It took me such a long time to identify that I have Imposter Syndrome. Years!!

July 30, 2023 23:50 - 27 minutes - 25.4 MBI had the pleasure of interviewing my 9 year old daughter about the Barbie movie and hear her throughs on body image and how women are seen in the world. It was refreshing and enlightening. It was also sad to see that the same feelings I had as a child, of living in a man’s world haven’t changed that much. If you’d like to hear about the world from the perspective of a 9 year old, take a listen.

In this episode I discuss what creates this personality disorder and the traits and behaviors of this disorder.

Healing Realizations
December 08, 2022 19:43 - 29 minutes - 27.2 MBI have been on this self healing journey for some time but recently, a lot of feelings and emotions have come forward in this process. It’s been eye opening, cathartic and also challenging as each emotion(s) has been tied to a triggering memory. It wouldn’t be called a journey if there weren’t hills, winding roads and even some ditches to dig your way out of. I know many of you out there are on a journey of self healing as well so I know I am not alone when I say that this is no easy feat. Ho...
Why I Stopped Drinking
December 05, 2022 19:44 - 30 minutes - 27.8 MBI decided to stop drinking about 2 years ago. It slowly stopped resonating with me but after explant surgery, I knew drinking was no longer for my highest and best good. In 1999-2017 alcohol related deaths among women in the US rose 85% and this made me ask myself, what are we doing? Somewhere in the midst of women’s liberation and working mom life, we have somehow seemed to normalize women abusing their bodies with alcohol. There have been countless memes depicting women unable to cope with ...

Allopathic Medicine is Failing Us
September 20, 2022 15:33 - 26 minutes - 24.6 MBI recently went to a PCP who was supposedly very understanding and an amazing doctor. My interaction with her was not that. It wasn’t about her not doing what I was asking, it was the way she spoke to me and the exchange in general. This is why people stay sick. We have a sick care system and after posting my account on TikTok, I am saddened (but not surprised) to see how many people have encountered the same thing. 142 comments of people experiencing similar or have experienced similar. Shed...
Importance of Acknowledging Trauma and Healing From It
August 17, 2022 14:40 - 26 minutes - 24.9 MB*Trigger Warning* This episode discusses sexual abuse. I always felt something. Something happened to me as a child and I could never quite remember the details but I just knew. I had some behaviors into my teen years and adulthood that align with sexual abuse but again, I couldn’t remember. I recently had a healing session where this was validated for me. It gave birth to me working on healing myself and releasing this trauma. It pushed me to bare witness to what happened and when so that I...
Happiness is Your Responsibility
August 11, 2022 23:31 - 23 minutes - 11 MBI read a great quote from Dr Nicole LaPera aka The Holistic Psychologist yesterday and it resonated so much with me that I felt the need to share it with you.

August 08, 2022 16:48 - 49 minutes - 22.7 MBThe CDC reports that black women experience maternity mortality 2-3 times higher than white women. Black women have a 43% per 100,000 chance of death during delivery and/or post delivery. Alaysha’s story began when her pregnancy was high risk and after discovering she had high blood pressure, she was repeatedly brushed off. After delivery, when she could not breathe, the nurses kept telling her it was anxiety which ultimately led to cardiac arrest and 7 days on a vent. Alaysha was brave enoug...
Thank God Mercury Retrograde is OVER!
June 04, 2022 11:14 - 22 minutes - 20.7 MBI have been MIA for a bit as this retrograde has kicked my butt. Have you been feeling it? Issues with communication, gossip, someone from the past resurfacing, issues at work, and technology glitching? Mercury went into retrograde May 10 and just ended a few days ago on June 2. Certain zodiac signs were affected more than others and it was pretty intense. But much like anything else in life, when we are challenged, it’s to teach us a lesson. Mercury retrograde is a time to pause, reflect and...
EFF Your Diet
April 01, 2022 18:36 - 41 minutes - 38.1 MBDiet culture is rearing it’s ugly head yet again with a new diet that has been getting all the rage. This week, I was asked by two of this programs “health coaches”, and I say that term very loosely, asking what I am doing for my health these days? Crazy question to ask someone who is well versed in health and the body, huh? There are people who restrict certain foods due to autoimmune diseases such as Celiac, Hashimoto’s, Graves, Diabetes etc but if you don’t have an autoimmune disease, chan...

Deadly Protocol with Therese Hernandez
January 19, 2022 16:12 - 32 minutes - 15.1 MBTherese Hernandez’s father, Joey was mistreated when he was admitted to the hospital for Covid-19. The hospital denied his patient’s “right to try” and only used the protocol that was instituted specifically for Covid-19 patients. Therese’s father was admitted on September 3, 2021 and passed away September 29, 2021. 7,000 pages of records revealed that the family was lied to. Joey’s story is not in isolation. There are hundreds of families experiencing the same exact scenario. The protocol be...
Women’s Hair Loss
January 14, 2022 14:57 - 33 minutes - 31.4 MBI have been suffering from Telogen Effluvian for a little over a year. Telogen Effluvian is hair loss triggered by a stressor (illness, surgery, accident). It’s been a long and at times, upsetting journey. What I have realized is that so many others are suffering from TE also. Most people who had Covid-19 have lost their hair after being sick and yes, that’s Telogen Effluvian. Along this journey I learned about treatment options, there are none for TE because it must run it’s course and it wi...
Roaching, Apocalypsing and Negging OH MY!
January 04, 2022 15:36 - 29 minutes - 27.3 MBAs if our world needs to be any weirder or as if dating needs to get any harder, dating terms have been created basically to replace behaviors that have always existed.

Let’s learn something new for the New Year and take a listen (and possibly have a laugh) to these new dating terms of 2022.

45 Years of Wisdom
November 15, 2021 07:05 - 26 minutes - 24.3 MBHappy Birthday to me! I turned 45 on November 14 and I figured why not share some of the wisdom I have accumulated in these 45 years. I am all about learning lessons and some I have learned with grace and some not so graciously. As I share my life lesson tidbits with you, I also want you to understand that not all of it may resonate with you. That’s OK! Take away what does resonate and leave the rest. PS- that’s actually one of my tidbits 😉
Raising Healthy Humans
October 24, 2021 04:20 - 43 minutes - 40.3 MBRecently the Holistic Psychologist discussed the topic of what our parents unconsciously teach us. In turn, we learn to navigate the world in this way as well. Everything is molded around our parents behaviors. In my own healing journey, I have had the horrific pleasures of seeing some of these behaviors manifest in my own children- after all, they learned from me. But do we have to remain the people our parents have created around their own emotional disregulation? Nope. We can take a step b...

This real American horror story gave way to the FX Network series, American Horror Story, Asylum. This state school,...
Dyslexia- An Ability
September 19, 2021 05:27 - 29 minutes - 27.5 MBMy son Justin was diagnosed with Dyslexia at 7 years old. Dyslexia is a language processing disorder yet often times gets confused as a “reading” disability. There are many misconceptions about this Ability. For example, Dyslexics see words backwards, which simply isn’t always true. While they may confuse letters such as d and b, entire words can disappear off the page or shake. I had to learn how to help my son because the educational system was failing him. We are our children’s best advoca...

Gut Health
September 01, 2021 23:09 - 19 minutes - 9.21 MB2500 years ago, Hippocrates said that all disease begins in the gut. How come he knew this back then and today, most Western medical doctors don’t?

Sex Hormones and Estrogen Dominance
August 22, 2021 23:20 - 28 minutes - 26.6 MBEstrogen Dominance is an imbalance of sex hormones in the body and you guessed it, we produce too much estrogen. Too much estrogen is bad because it can lead to cancer, blood clotting, stroke, infertility and the list goes on.

If you would like to check if your chemicals contain xenoestrogens (man made estrogen compounds) check out the Environme...

Love Your Liver
August 10, 2021 09:55 - 38 minutes - 18.1 MBI have developed a love relationship with my liver and I want you to also. I found out I have NAFLD (Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease) as a result of Breast Implant Illness but I am reversing it naturally. Our liver is responsible for over 500 functions daily and in the US, people are walking around with only 10% of their liver working!! Can you imagine having that many job functions? Would you be tired? Sluggish? With all the toxins we ingest on a daily basis, it’s important for us to suppo...
Vaccine Mandates
August 08, 2021 11:54 - 34 minutes - 31.7 MB“It didn’t start with gas chambers. It started with one party controlling the media, one party controlling the message, one party deciding what is truth, one party censoring speech and silencing opposition. One party dividing citizens into Us vs Them and calling on their supporters to harass them. It started when good people turned a blind eye and let it happen.” I would never minimize what happened in the Holocaust and the heinous crimes against humanity that took place. However, the rhetori...
Do Your Research
July 26, 2021 06:10 - 34 minutes - 32.3 MBWe live in a day and age where information is at our fingertips- or is it? We are living in a day and age where our freedoms are being taken away and voices are being censored. It is imperative that you do your own research when it comes to your health. It is imperative that you have full control over your body and what you are putting into it. This episode touches on John Rockefeller’s creation of Big Pharmaceuticals and how holistic means of medicine were destroyed. This gave birth to medic...
A Brief Message
July 11, 2021 02:58 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MBI receive downloads that sometimes I am called to share with others. This is one of them. There has been such a divide among humanity. It’s time to use our discernment now, to stay neutral especially in the realm of politics. We are being used as pawns in this game.

These events are mo...

It’s Been A Minute
June 30, 2021 11:49 - 34 minutes - 16.1 MBHey Guys!! It really has been a minute! I have been called to serve others the past few months and I been detoxing my body from those toxic shit bags I had for 22 years. Many clients of mine have been expressing their own need(s) surrounding detoxing their bodies for spiritual reasons and I thought it would be a great time, since we are in a time of tremendous enlightenment and healing, to explain my own detox process and how I have been feeling. You do not need a trauma to detox. We ingest h...
Cancel Culture
April 07, 2021 10:55 - 20 minutes - 18.7 MBNot sure about how you’ve been feeling about Cancel Culture but it’s been really hitting me hard lately. Is this real life? To live in a society where we cancel history, cancel opportunities to teach our children lessons, cancel time periods of injustice? Yet other social injustices aren’t even spoken about let alone canceled. We need to take a serious look at what is happening in our society and say, Stop. Cancel culture is not new, it’s been here before and was sinister. If you’re sick of c...
Hump Day PSA
March 03, 2021 15:44 - 11 minutes - 5.67 MBWelcome to season 3! I have been seeing so many people posting how they received the vaccine. I am not anti vaccines at all.

PSA For Hump Day!
February 18, 2021 01:46 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MBI recently had a discussion about how the side part and skinny jeans are no longer in style. So you mean to tell me a generation of Pokémon Go people who would have walked into traffic to catch a fake creature are dictating how people should dress? What’s next? The Tide pod eaters will dish out love advice? Here is my PSA for the judgmental people who love to tell us what to wear or what not to wear.

I had a day like that and I am here to tell you that you’re not alone. All the work I do to maintain my “zen”, daily meditations, journaling, praying, practicing mindfulness and positive self talk- none of those could have stopped what went on in my head. However, I was able to walk myself through it and with that said, I offer a tiny pearl ...
Stepping Into Your Power
February 08, 2021 22:57 - 24 minutes - 22.7 MB2020 was a year of uncertainty, fear, sadness, you name it! But if we could have learned anything from 2020, it’s that our time is limited. We witnessed freedoms rendered, TV and social media fear mongering, extreme polarities. We have the ability to manifest a better life for ourselves and it is a choice. It’s time to let go of the people, places, or things that no longer serve you and step into your power. How do we do that or how do we know it’s happening? Take a listen and STEP IN.

Dangers of Porn and Its Effects on Sexuality
November 24, 2020 13:00 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MBPorn has been around since before Christ. Statues in Pompeii depicted pornography. Caves had drawings of pornography. It’s been around the block more than once! But how does porn effect us, our brains? How does it effect our sexuality? In this episode, I discuss all this and more about porn.
