what if the places we live in aren’t random? what if they are shaping us in ways we don’t even realize?

i’ve spent the last few years surrendering to the pull of different places, following an intuitive (and sometimes terrifying) call to let the universe guide my path—even when it didn’t make logical sense. what I’ve learned is this: certain locations activate us, challenge us, expand us, and even hold the key to parts of ourselves we haven’t yet met.

after serendipitously connecting with Fernanda Paiva via instagram, i knew i had to invite her on the podcast to chat about being former corporate professionals turned intuitive nomads.

in this episode, we chat about our spiritual journeys, the importance of surrender, the powerful effects of different geographic energies on personal growth and how the energetic blueprint of different locations influences us on a soul level.

this conversation isn’t just about astrology—it’s about learning to trust the unseen forces that are shaping our path.

"Hey, I'm Fernanda. An old soul living in a mid-age body, carrying an adventurous and warrior spirit. I was born breaking rules and norms.

For years, I thought something was wrong with me. But with my Aries mercury and rising, and Taurus sun – I'm stubborn AF!
And decided I was actually right, and everyone else was wrong.
And I think that's what helped me throughout my life making choices that were more aligned with my soul than what society expects.

Three years ago, I received a calling that led me on a true hero's journey around the globe.

I'm driven by purpose and meaning, and my main commitment in life is to self-mastery and consciousness expansion."
