Are you a bit of a control freak? Do you often feel “on edge” or as though you have to scan the horizon for possible danger? Yup, me too! In this episode, I discuss how can we move beyond the egoic need to control our environment, our own behavior, and others’ reactions to us. I

There’s always a gap between your desire and the manifested outcome of that desire — we may call this the “mystery” between manifestations. As humans, we often find it challenging to reside in this mystery, which is why we give up on our deepest desires before they’ve had a chance to manifest. In this episode,

Marielle Smith is a writer and intuitive coach who works mostly with overwhelmed writers and other creatives who’ve lost touch with their intuition.

Robert Augustus Masters defines the term “spiritual bypassing” as a collection of behaviors and beliefs through which we use spirituality to avoid life. Some of these behaviors include anger-phobia, boundaries that are too strict or too porous, emotional numbing, and over-detachment from life. When we engage in spiritual bypassing, we trick ourselves into believing that

In this episode, I explore how you can move from a state of chaos (in your health, finances, relationships, career, or any other idea) to a state of greater stability, both internally and externally. I discuss what external chaos might represent in your life and how we sometimes use chaos to distract ourselves from fulfilling

This episode is my interview with speaker, author, and writer Karly Randolph-Pitman on the concept of the inner rebel. The inner rebel is that voice or energy that pops up from within you when you try to make a change, take a risk, or work on healing yourself in a deep way. The inner rebel

In this episode, I explore how working with law of attraction material can sometimes evoke feelings of self-blame, guilt, and shame in us, leading us to question, “How could I create this reality for myself?” I discuss some of the limitations of law of attraction theory and how to best use this approach *without* beating

For episode 53 of Inner Work, I had the pleasure of interviewing author, teacher, spiritual entrepreneur, and founder of Biddy Tarot, Brigit Esselmont.

In episode #50 of Inner Work, I discuss prosperity and what you can do to welcome more of it in your life.

Episode 49 of Inner Work deals with a touchy subject: how to be spiritual when your family isn’t. How can you explain your spirituality to your family? Should you even try? Do you have to share your spiritual path with them? How can you deal with family members who are resistant, close-minded, or who shame

Episode 48 of Inner Work features a discussion of soul-aligned work: what it is, how we can define it, how you know when you’re doing it, and how can you start doing more of it right now. (No matter where you are in terms of your profession or job — you can begin anywhere!) I
