#106 - This Is What Surrender Actually Looks Like

In this episode, I’m continuing the Empress Method by exploring what comes after effort: surrender.We talk about why the mind and ego are wired to keep us gripping, controlling, and forcing outcomes, and how true embodiment requires learning how to release, not give up, but let life move through us.I share how surrender isn’t passive, weak, or spiritual bypassing. It’s an embodied practice of trust. A willingness to loosen control, soften the body, and allow the next step to reveal itself instead of trying to force clarity.This episode is for anyone who feels tired of pushing, exhausted by effort, or stuck because they’re trying to “figure it out” instead of letting the body lead.This is the Empress learning how to float with the river instead of fighting it._____________________________________________👸 If you want to dive deeper with me, you're invited into The Empress Sanctuary!

#104 - Your Beliefs Aren’t Yours: The Body Is the Subconscious Mind

In this episode, I’m sharing what’s alive right now inside The Empress Sanctuary, introducing the foundation of the Empress Method, and previewing what comes next with Pivot and Rejuvenation.We go deep into why “the method” isn’t just a mindset framework, it’s an embodiment pathway. I talk about beliefs, unconscious thought patterns, and how so much of what we call “manifestation” is really about becoming aware of the thoughts we’ve been thinking on autopilot for years. We explore how beliefs form early (in the womb and through key childhood windows), how conditioning becomes generational, and why the body is the subconscious mind.______________________________________________👸 If you want to dive deeper with me, you're invited into The Empress Sanctuary!

#103 - Love Is the Initiation, The Mirror Is the Teacher

In this episode, I’m introducing the first two steps of the Empress Method: Expanding Love and The Mirror.I share how the Empress Method came through, why these two steps are the foundation of embodied sovereignty, and how expanding love is not about bypassing or positivity, but about increasing capacity, safety, and truth in the body.We explore how the mirror works in real life and relationships, why what triggers or inspires you is never random, and how these reflections are invitations into deeper self-trust and self-leadership.I also weave in personal stories, lived examples of expanding love, and insights around Line 5 energy in Human Design, including projection, leadership, and why Empresses are often seen as mirrors before they are fully understood.This episode is for you if you’re ready to:Stop outsourcing your powerUnderstand your reflections instead of resisting themLead yourself with love, clarity, and embodied authorityStep more fully into your Empress Era___________________________________________👸 If you want to dive deeper with me, you're invited into The Empress Sanctuary!
