Our energy fields naturally interact with those around us, making it vital to protect our vibrational balance when supporting loved ones through hard times. Helping others can be deeply fulfilling but often tests our energetic boundaries. Setting boundaries through practices like grounding, visualization, and meditation shields your energy from negativity while maintaining empathy. Grounding anchors your energy, and visualizing a protective light helps you stay aligned without being overwhelmed. These techniques ensure your energy remains balanced, allowing you to support others without losing yourself. Join Katherine MacLane as we explore ways to protect your energy in challenging times.

The holiday season, while often filled with joy and celebration, can also amplify feelings of loneliness, grief, and overwhelm. In those moments, it’s easy to feel as though we’re navigating life’s challenges alone, carrying burdens too heavy to bear. But what if the very struggles we face are opportunities to connect with a deeper source of strength? In this episode, Rev. Lizzie reminds us that through spirituality, we can find a wellspring of resilience and hope. Whether we’re juggling endless to-do lists or grieving a profound loss, Lizzie shares how God’s presence and love offer us the courage to endure, grow, and heal—even in life’s most trying seasons.

Rev. Lizzie McManus Dail has lived all over the world with her boots now rooted in Austin, Texas, where she is living her dream as the founder of Jubilee Episcopal Church. Lizzie is passionate about the evangelism of a God who makes each of us for joy, which is why you might see her doing silly dances and talking about church history on Instagram and TikTok with her 80K followers.

As a graduate of Mt. Holyoke College, Lizzie brought a passion for intersectional feminism and queer theology to her studies at Duke Divinity School and Seminary of the Southwest. It was her time in both Massachusetts and North Carolina that brought her into the Episcopal church, where she was ordained in 2020. While grateful for her academic formation, she still swears most things she learned about being a priest she learned from 5 plus years of working in the service industry and access to the arts in her public high school.
