Today’s episode is a heart-wide-open conversation about mothering, memory, and what it means to forgive. Together, Alexa and Mindy explore the complexities of mother wounds, what it means to truly see your mother as a human, and how the deepest healing often begins when we stop waiting for someone else to change—and start changing our relationship to the story.
From estrangement to reconnection, plant medicine to soul conversations, this episode invites you into a tender and transformative reflection on re-mothering, self-worth, and generational healing.

This one isn’t just for those navigating mother relationships. It’s for anyone who’s ever craved to feel safe, seen, and whole—on their own terms.

• The nuanced layers of mother wounds and generational inheritance

• Mindy’s story of estrangement and unexpected reunion with her mom

• The power of plant medicine and soul-to-soul forgiveness

• What it means to re-mother yourself and embody feminine wisdom

• How aging, joy, play, and acceptance shape our relationships

• Letting go of needing others to change—and softening into your own becoming

→ What stories about your mother—or how you were mothered—are you still carrying?
→ Where in your life are you waiting for someone else to change, when what you truly desire is peace within yourself?
→ What does mother energy feel like to you, and how can you begin to embody it now?
→ If forgiveness wasn’t about forgetting—but about freeing yourself—what might you finally release?

Today’s episode is a conversation about healing—not the kind that’s performative or prescriptive, but the kind that asks: What’s actually right for me, right now?
We explore rituals and modalities like journaling, breathwork, cacao, cold plunges, and meditation—not as checkboxes to prove our healing, but as invitations to return to ourselves. This is about discernment, not discipline. Presence, not performance.

Let this episode remind you:
You are the ritual.
And you get to choose what serves.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• The difference between performing healing and experiencing healing

• How even spiritual practices can become another to-do list

• Journaling, meditation, breathwork, cacao, cold plunges, movement, nature, and silence—as tools, not rules

• Questions to help you discern which rituals actually support you

• The idea that healing doesn’t have to be so serious—it can feel like you

Reflection Questions:
→ Which rituals make me feel more like myself?
→ What am I doing because it’s true for me—and what am I doing because I think I should?
→ If I designed a ritual today from scratch, what would it look like?
→ Where might I soften the pressure and return to presence.

Today’s episode is a rich, heart-forward conversation with Sara Schultz—brand strategist, educator, mother, and dreamer—about what it means to truly live your “dreamy life.” But this isn’t a conversation about perfection or picture-perfect routines. It’s about the beautiful tension between devotion and desire, identity and evolution, pivots and presence. We explore how our life, business, motherhood, and even grief invite us to participate with intention. If you’ve ever felt the tug of change, the burden of expectation, or the longing for harmony between life and work—you’re not alone. This episode is your permission slip to live fully, try bravely, and redefine success on your own terms.

• The idea of “dreamy life” as a practice, not a destination

• How motherhood, marriage, and business all evolve through pivots

• Sara’s dreamy day/week/month/year journaling exercise to align life + business

• Letting go of martyrdom in motherhood and reclaiming autonomy

• Learning from unmet expectations in parenting and entrepreneurship

• Why the integration of life and work isn’t about balance—it’s about aliveness

• How trial, error, and awareness are the real tools of transformation

• The connection between joy, money, and empowered feminine leadership

• A powerful live breakthrough around patience and self-compassion

• Where are you holding expectations so tightly that you’ve forgotten your power to choose again?

• What would it look like to stop measuring your success by outcomes and instead by aliveness?

• How might you honor your past pivots as proof of your courage, not detours from your path?

Today's episode explores the profound difference between knowing something and becoming it. In a world where information is readily accessible, we often mistake knowledge for transformation. This episode invites you to honor the sacred space between learning and embodiment—that messy, beautiful integration phase where true wisdom takes root. It's a gentle reminder that transformation doesn't happen in a moment of insight, but through lived experience and patient integration. This is an invitation to slow down, to honor your process, and to teach from wisdom rather than information.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• The essential difference between collecting information and embodying wisdom
• Why teaching requires more than being "one step ahead" of others
• The sacred framework: Curiosity → Belief → Integration → Embodiment → Wisdom
• Why rushing to share or teach before full integration can lack integrity and safety
• The importance of developing your own relationship with what you're learning before guiding others

Reflection Questions:

• Where in your life are you still gathering information you haven't fully integrated?
• What beliefs have you adopted that you haven't tested yet?
• What's one thing you know deeply, not because you learned it, but because you lived it?

Today’s episode is a soft and spacious conversation about motherhood—not from the lens of arrival, but of readiness. Together with my friend Brittany, a pelvic floor therapist and embodiment coach, we explore the narratives around mature pregnancy, energy, partnership, and the myths we’ve inherited about womanhood and timing.

This isn’t an episode about having all the answers. It’s about naming the fears, softening the shame, and asking better questions. Whether you’re a parent, longing to be one, or simply navigating big transitions—this conversation invites you to consider what it means to prepare for something sacred before it arrives.

This is about honoring your energy, trusting your body, redefining support, and remembering that readiness isn’t a checkbox—it’s a relationship.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• The emotional complexity of preparing for motherhood later in life

• How societal pressure around fertility creates silent fears and comparisons

• Energetic capacity, especially for those who identify as Projectors in Human Design

• The mental load in partnership, and how redefining contribution can create deeper balance

• Chinese confinement, postpartum traditions, and what it means to truly be supported

• The grief of shifting timelines and the beauty in making space for what's not yet here

Reflection Questions:

→ What stories have you inherited about when and how motherhood should unfold?
→ What does support actually look like in your life—and are you allowing yourself to receive it?
→ Where are you holding fear about the unknown—and can you meet it with compassion instead of urgency?

Today’s episode is a tender conversation about resentment—not as a villain, but as a quiet messenger trying to bring you home to yourself. Alexa explores how resentment often hides behind words like “busy” or “fine,” when what’s really underneath is a need that’s gone unmet—rest, boundaries, or simply the courage to choose differently.

This episode isn’t a how-to. It’s a deep breath. A soft truth. An invitation to sit with the uncomfortable and realize that what we sometimes resent the most… is how we’ve abandoned ourselves.

When we stop blaming the outside world and start meeting our own needs with compassion, everything changes. Because if we’re the problem—we’re also the answer.

• The subtle ways resentment disguises itself in everyday language (like “I’m just so busy”)
  
  

• Why resentment is often a reflection of self-abandonment—not external circumstances
  
  

• The link between resentment and unheld boundaries
  
  

• How personifying resentment can soften our resistance to it
  
  

• Why gratitude, not shame, is the doorway back to alignment
  
  

→ What is your resentment trying to tell you about what you need—rest, slowness, boundaries, or something else?
→ Where in your life are you expecting others to uphold a boundary you haven’t claimed for yourself?
→ What would it feel like to meet your resentment with compassion instead of shame?

Today’s episode is an exploration of presence, play, and the moments that shape us. I sat down with my dear friend and photographer, Diana, to talk about the art of capturing time—not just through a camera lens, but through memory, through feeling, through being fully in it.

We talk about love notes and inside jokes, about the beauty of documenting the in-between moments, about the unspoken ways we hold each other close. We dive into the emotional landscape of weddings—how joy and grief coexist—and what it means to be truly seen in a photograph.

This conversation is a gentle invitation: to feel, to remember, to collect the moments that make up a life well-lived.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• The magic of unposed, unscripted, deeply real moments

• The ways we try to capture time—through photography, words, and presence

• How weddings (and life) are never just about joy, but about the full spectrum of feeling

• The importance of play and why we need to relearn it as adults

• How photography isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about seeing

Reflection Questions:

→ How do you capture and treasure important moments in your life, and are there specific practices you follow to preserve these memories?

Today’s episode is a soft and soulful reminder: you don’t have to wait for life to slow down to feel connected, present, or whole. You’re already in the ceremony.

This isn’t about finding more time to light candles or meditate—it’s about letting the ordinary become sacred. We explore how presence is available right here, in the mess, in the movement, in the mundane.

This episode is an invitation to come back to yourself—not later, not after the to-do list, but now.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• What it means to romanticize a version of your life that’s just slightly out of reach
  
  

• Why presence is not a reward to be earned, but something to return to
  
  

• The cultural lie of “arrival” and how it keeps us from living
  
  

• The power of treating daily moments—laundry, emails, cooking—as sacred rituals
  
  

• How to reclaim your life as a ceremony, even in the chaos
  
  

Reflection Questions:

→ Where in your life are you waiting for things to slow down before you show up fully?
→ What would it look like to treat your current life as sacred—even in its mess, even in its movement?
→ What is one ordinary moment you could treat like a ritual today?
