In this crazy commodified world of self-help and self-love, there are a ton of teachers and concepts which are supposed to "empower" us but often are so reductive in their context and delivery that they leave us feeling more confused, more at war with ourselves, and sometimes feeling more shame. Megyn Blanchard uses her relatable voice and laser-sharp insight to deconstruct, demystify, and sometimes debunk oversimplified pop-psychology, spirituality, personal empowerment, and relationship topics so you can integrate, heal, and thrive as a human.

Peter Feliciano - Identity Politics, Woke Is Broke, and the Feminine Needs the Masculine

May 14, 2021 01:00 - 1 hour - 42.2 MB

In this inaugural episode of WHR, season 2, I decided to break the internet with an outspoken, "Conservatish," reformed liberal named Peter Feliciano. A Long Island native who made his way back to New York during Covid is sure to offend you, make you laugh,  or at the very least, make you think. A lot of the mainstream narrative and neo-liberalism puts people in a position where they have to bend to the will of the woke mob, or else... Our conversation is the kind of conversation I've been ...

September 10, 2019 02:00 - 14 minutes - 9.73 MB

Self-worth gets bastardized in the self-help and spiritual world. Is everything a mirror of our self-worth, or are there more complexites to being human?

I illuminate the three essential low self-worth clues, including the codependent's underlying core wounds of deservedness and worthiness and how able are we to re...

August 21, 2019 03:00 - 51 minutes - 35.1 MB

All of us are healing from something. Unfortunately, most of us are swimming in a lot of toxic, codependent, or less than loving situations therefor learning what love FEELS like is the first step to truly transforming our relationship with ourselves, and with others.  But what does that really look like and mean?

Listen in as I help you shift this pattern and learn what you...

How to heal "false self" and live your most authentic life. An interview with Dr. Rachel

August 07, 2019 02:00 - 55 minutes - 38.4 MB

On this episode of WHR, Dr. Rachel and I deconstruct "false self" and what that looks like in our lives. Often "false self" gets espoused as something we are supposed to "demonize" or call out as "not true," or simply see it as limiting, and then suddenly it's tendrils are supposed to miraculously go away. But this kind of thinking actually keeps us held hostage by "false self" because it doesn't teach us how to go into relationship with the part of us that beautifully constructed and relie...

Whether it's a major upheaval, an expansion period, a cocooning phase, or a period of learning who you are and how you relate to the world, there is always an astrological "why" that points to the energy we are feeling.

This is the second episode in my solo series on Intimacy. Intimacy is impossible with others if we don't have an intimate, loving, trusting relationship with ourselves.

It allows us to commu...

A Universal Look At Codependence: The Dance Of The Wounded Soul

May 15, 2019 01:00 - 1 hour - 28.6 MB

In this episode I asked Robert Burney, a pioneer in the area of codependency recovery & inner child healing, to talk about his perspective on Codependence.
