I started this podcast in 2017 — not to shout into the void, but to start the kinds of conversations I wished existed. The ones that name the real reasons women feel off, even when they “do everything right.”

As a Projector, I lead with pattern recognition. As a Human Design + functional nutrition practitioner, I give language to what your body’s already been whispering.

This show is about unlearning the noise — and rebuilding self-trust, one episode at a time.

Episode 317: Reclaiming My Image — Visibility, Being Seen and The Self-Portrait Challenge

Episode 317: Reclaiming My Image — Visibility, Being Seen and The Self-Portrait Challenge

What happens when you stop bracing at your own reflection—and start seeing yourself clearly for the first time?

In this solo, deeply personal follow-up to Episode 316, I share what actually happened when I joined The Self-Portrait Challenge with visibility mentor Lisa Haukom — and what it cracked open for me.

What began as an experiment in iPhone photography quickly became a process of unpacking why I’ve spent most of my life flinching at photos of myself to softening old stories, letting go of performance, and reclaiming how I see myself now.

You’ll hear me share:

  • The quiet grief of no longer recognizing your body

  • The power of documenting (not performing)

  • How representation—especially as an Asian women—isn’t just about visibility, but self-trust

  • Why learning to love photos of yourself isn’t about vanity—it’s about recognition

Whether you're in your thirties, forties, fifties or beyond, if you’ve ever felt invisible in your own life or body, this one’s for you.

Episode 307: The Relationship Episode: Where Capacity and Relationships Meet - Venus Retrograde Edition with Nadia Gabrielle

What if the way you show up in relationships has less to do with effort—and more to do with your subconscious capacity?

Returning to the show is my friend, mentor, and frequent guest, Nadia Gabrielle—a teacher of conscious strategy and subconscious capacity.

In this episode, Nadia and I dive into the deep, often overlooked connection between capacity and relationships. She shares how our subconscious beliefs shape the way we connect with others—whether in personal relationships, work dynamics, or even our relationship with institutions and systems.

Through real-life case studies and personal experiences, we explore:

  • How subconscious capacity impacts relationships (in ways you might not expect)

  • The patterns that keep you stuck in relational burnout, overgiving, or misalignment

  • Strategies for building resilience and repairing connections—without depleting yourself

If you’ve ever felt drained in your relationships, struggled to hold boundaries, or wondered why certain dynamics feel so hard, this conversation is for you.

Tune in to learn how to expand your capacity and transform the way you relate to others—without losing yourself in the process.
