Live On Purpose Podcast

There's a lot of pissed-off-ness going on in the world right now.

The storm is raging inside many people's hearts.

But anger gets a bad rep.

Sometimes life doesn't go the way we thought it would and we get upset when that happens.

Sometimes, unjust things happen and we feel outraged at the experience.

Sometimes we make choices that we didn't feel were really a choice (even though they were) that cause us to abandon our truth in an attempt to please the "other", and we're left with resentment.

When we feel angry and don't have healthy ways of expressing ourselves, we bottle it up and then explode.

Anger is a healthy emotion that we get to feel as part of the human experience.

It's what we DO with our anger that makes all the difference.

You have to feel it to heal it, my friend.

(and in this episode, I guide you through an inner child exercise where we release our anger and reframe the stories in our mind).

And the best (also slightly annoying) part? We can choose to feel our anger and release it, or we can choose to bottle it up and burn from the inside out.

But the choice is ours to make.

Tune in for some helpful tools you can use to process your anger and reframe the stories in your mind. And then let me know on social if you resonate! I'd love to know what you want to hear about next on the podcast! My DMs are always open for suggestions!

Sometimes life hands you lemons and you find yourself feeling low.

This is especially true when you don't feel well physically.

"When you don't feel well, life feels hard."

Recently, I had a pretty big "dip" and then eventually, found myself on the other side of it.

"Without going down, you wouldn't also know what it feels like to go up."

Today is a special day.

Not only is it podcast release day, but today's conversation features one of my best friends in the entire world, Michelle Catherine Rose.

This sweet soul and I connected a year ago to date, but it feels as if we've known each other for decades.

Michelle is a well-being counsellor, yoga and meditation teacher, CEO of SyNK yxe, a dedicated dog mama, avid adventurer and one of the most beautiful friends I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. I am so thrilled to share this conversation with you.

And once you listen to Michelle talk about stress, life challenges, healing and self soothing, you will understand that it is from this place of lived experience that she birthed her company, SyNK YXE.

SyNK YXE makes sustainable, handcrafted wellness products (Brandon and I are obsessed with the eye pillows and sand bags! We use them for naps, cramps, relaxing, yoga, meditation, bedtime and I always take my bigger sand bag on road trips to have on my lap!)

You can check out SyNK and the products available here:

- What it means to get "back in sync with you"
- Michelle's personal experience with "feel it to heal it" and her really hard year
- Seeking support without taking on other peoples' energy
- 5 Incredible daily practices for self soothing

Every once in awhile, an extra special woman enters my awareness and I make a point to connect.

This started like that.

I had seen Amy's name float across my Instagram, and when I felt the little intuitive nudge that I know (and trust) all too well, I reached out and started a conversation.

"I just have this feeling, want to be friends?"

Or something like that lol.

We connected over my intuitive hit to message her and then proceeded to have the most intuitively guided, gorgeous conversation about... you guessed it, intuition.

More specifically though?

We chatted all things "the feminine frequency".

This is going to be an episode you want to listen to again and again.

Soak up her words. This woman walks her talk.

And then use her questions to guide your next steps:
"Who am I? What makes me happy? What do I want?"

Some of the things we chatted about:
- Amy's incredible story of self discovery, starting with a divorce.
- Why it's so important to connect with our femininity, intuition and creativity.
- Appearance vs. Reality
- Masculine & Feminine Energies
- PLEASURE
- The Feminine Archetypes
- Personal Development through a feminine lens

+ so much more!

Amy Natalie is a Women's Empowerment coach and a leader of the Feminine Rising. After experiencing her first spiritual awakening at age 27, she went through a divorce, overcame depression, and started following her true soul calling. 

For the past 8 years, Amy has supported women to overcome mindset blocks and get into alignment with their soul. Through her group programs and events, Amy brings women together in Sisterhood to grow and evolve together.

Amy is also the host of the Feminine Frequency Podcast which has over 100k downloads and empowers women from all around the world.

The simplest things in life are often overlooked, simply because we think effectiveness = complication.

But what I've found, and I know today's guest Meghan Sandve would agree, is that the power can be found in the simple truths of the present moment.

One of those powerful things is the breath.

This is single-handedly our most underutilized tool for creating the energy and emotions we wish to have.

"We move energy with breath, movement and sound."

Need more energy? Speed up your breathing.

Need to calm down? Slow down your breathing.

Need to ground yourself? Hum on the exhale.

Need to release tension? Sigh audibly on the exhale.

"It was under my nose this whole time" takes on an entirely new meaning lol!

Join Marie and Meghan Sandve, a Body Empowerment Coach, Breathwork Facilitator and the host of the Fit & Fierce Podcast (who also appears in Ep. 74 "Sit With Your Shit") as they discuss self-regulating emotions by using the breath.

It's powerful stuff!

If you've found yourself clenching, stressing, worrying, busying yourself and chewing your toenails... this one is for you.

Especially*** if you've been raised with the belief that not doing = being lazy, and being lazy = not worthy.

Today's Quick LOP dissects the biological and the cultural programming behind DOING and why we are the way we are.

What was your experience like growing up around productivity, working hard, "doing stuff" and being busy?

Tune in to take a couple deep breaths with me and then listen to my experience and let me know on social if you resonate! I'd love to know what you want to hear about next on the podcast! My DMs are always open for suggestions!

After a summer hiatus from podcasting, I'm BAAAAAACKKKKK, baby! And so excited to share a mini series for September alllllllll about SELF SOOTHING.

Today's LOP is all about a practice I've implemented the last few months. I call it "check your vitals". And it never fails to help set me straight, feel a bit better and move through whatever low vibe emotion or experience I'm having.

I go through the list of mind, body, mood, food and gratitude and ask myself a series of questions that I think you'll really enjoy.

Quick LOP on a recent experience I had trying on my shorts...

None of them fit.

And at first, I was choked.

I didn't think my body had changed that dramatically over the winter?

And then I was reminded of something important:

It's not me that's the wrong size, it's the clothes.

So I went and bought new ones.
