In this episode, I share how I’ve worked across various industries and always gave away a lot of credit—praising others, lifting them up, and always making sure everyone else looked good. I thought that was the right thing to do, but I soon realized that in doing so, I was dimming my own light and forgetting that I am the secret, the magic, the sauce behind my success.

Finding the balance between gratitude and recognizing your own power is key. You can be thankful for others while still owning your role in the wins. It’s about understanding that your success is rooted in who you’re being, in your unique essence, and that owning your power doesn’t diminish your humility—it amplifies it.

This is for anyone who’s struggled with giving too much credit away, playing small, or forgetting that your magic is what makes everything work. Let’s dive into how to honor gratitude without losing sight of the incredible force that is you.

After leaving a demanding religion, it can be overwhelming to reconnect with the Divine, especially if you've been taught to fear anything outside the church's teachings. This is where storytelling can play a crucial role in the healing process. Sharing our stories allows us to process our experiences, challenge old beliefs, and redefine our understanding of spirituality in a way that feels safe and authentic.

In this episode, I discuss why storytelling is such an important tool for healing. It offers a gentle way to explore our feelings and encourages us to embrace the idea of the Divine on our own terms, free from the fear instilled by previous teachings. This mini-series holds special significance for me as it reflects my personal journey of transformation and the empowerment that comes from finding one’s unique spiritual path.

I also share about the Goddess I began working with first and how her influence has helped me navigate this new relationship with the Divine. By embracing her stories and qualities, I found the courage to move beyond fear and step into a more loving and supportive understanding of spirituality.

If you connected with today’s conversation about healing, storytelling, and exploring the Goddess within, I would love to hear from you. Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments or reach out on social media. Let’s continue to support each other on this journey of self-discovery and spirituality. Thank you for being part of this community!

"OKAAAAY, but Are you happy?"

It’s a simple question, but one that can spark a profound journey of self-reflection. In this episode of “The Real Rebellion: Finding Fulfillment Outside the Media’s Grip,” I invite you to step into a playful exploration of what true happiness means in a world buzzing with noise and chaos. I’ll unravel the intricate dance between societal expectations and personal joy, examining how so many people get swept away in the tide of media influence that often drowns out our inner voices.

Embracing a concept I like to call a “quiet rebellion,” I delve into the art of living simply and authentically as a delightful act of defiance against the busy, bustling world around us. Heartwarming stories and anecdotes from women who have found their bliss at home illuminate the beauty in simplicity, proving that sometimes the greatest adventure lies in a peaceful cup of tea and a well-tended garden.

Through playful banter and thoughtful reflections, I’ll pose some big questions that linger in the back of your mind: What does happiness truly look like for you? How can you reclaim your time and vitality from the grips of external pressures?

I encourage you to reflect on these questions and share your thoughts with me! Connect with me on Substack or leave a comment to let me know how you’re navigating the journey toward fulfillment and happiness. I can’t wait to hear about your own experiences and insights!

In this episode, we explore the journey of “embodying the Ma” and embracing fullness in body, mind, and spirit.

I’ll share personal stories and yogic wisdom while reflecting on societal pressures around body image and femininity.

We’ll discuss attachments to the maiden archetype and how these can impact self-identity. I’ll share my experience with perimenopause, including weight gain and how trauma has affected my perspective on aging.

We’ll touch on the importance of embracing fullness—not just physically but also emotionally and spiritually—as part of our lives. Additionally, we’ll examine cultural narratives that pressure women to shrink while celebrating the rebellious choice to embody our true selves.

This one is a reminder to me, to you to really emphasize the need to model self-acceptance and positivity for our families, encouraging us all to nurture wholeness in our daily lives. Join me as we reflect on embodying the fullness in every season of being a woman.

• Kundalini Awakening: I stumbled upon the enchanting world of tantra, which I have come to see was more a tantric approach to living life with deeper connections to love and intimacy
• Solo Retreat Adventure: my first international trip solo to a retreat filled with practices old me wouldve never even imagined! I faced my deep fears and discovered powerful new aspects of myself

In this episode of Good Girl Gone Goddess, I dive into one of my greatest soul expansions in my journey so far. This is the part I believe most are terrified to think about much less talk about, I know I was. letting Go of a once "sure thing" ...

I also share a short reflection on how societal pressures and that of my church which once hijacked my motherhood experience, again with being fixed on this “PATH”making me forget that my kids are actually my greatest teachers in Life.

When we expand beyond the straight and narrow and the attachments to the “answers” We are Able to reclaim our full presence and truly love the way love has always been formless and abounding in every moment.

In this heartfelt episode of "Good Girl Gone Goddess," we delve into the weighty topics of recent disasters and the profound impact they have on our collective psyche. As someone who has journeyed through my own trials after disaster, I share my thoughts and reflections on the angst of navigating a world filled with sadness and disconnection and what helped me to restore my aliveness.

In a personal shift, I have chosen to say less on social media to create space for deeper listening and to offer more heart in my conversations here. Join me as I explore the concept of pleasure and how they can serve as gateways to healing. I discuss pleasure as a powerful form of resistance and a pathway to justice, reminding us of the importance of finding joy even in dark times.

In a moment of connection, I offer a prayer that invites us all to seek quiet moments in our lives, to learn to cultivate personal wisdom—moments that help us link arms with the Divine and reclaim a sense of peace amidst chaos.

Key Topics:

• Personal reflections on recent disasters
• The feeling of disconnection in today's world
• Understanding portals as spaces for healing and transformation
• Pleasure as resistance and a tool for justice
• The importance of prayer and connecting with the Divine
• Finding quiet moments to cultivate peace and joy

SONG USED: DEVI MANTRA by ANAND MEHROTRA + excerpt from his book "This is That"

In this candid and free-flowing episode, I open up about my own transformative journey toward embodiment—a path filled with conflicting teachings and profound self-discovery.

Please be aware that some of the topics we explore may stir tender feelings, especially for those who have experienced abuse or cultural and religious harm. I invite you to pause and take care of yourself as needed.

Throughout this raw sharing, I delve into:

• Cultural Dissonance: My experiences growing up as a native Hawaiian hula dancer while navigating religious teachings that urged me to distrust my body.
• Conflicting Creation Stories: How these narratives shaped my beliefs and influenced my journey into embodiment.
• True Nature Revealed: The realization that embodiment isn't about learning something new but about peeling back the layers that hide my true nature.
• Facilitator Insight: What truly matters to me now in my role as a facilitator, and how these insights impact my work.
• Body Awareness Invitation: Encouraging both myself and you, the listener, to bring more awareness and understanding to our body’s story.

Join me as I share these layers of my journey, inviting you to reflect on your own path to wholeness through embodiment.I

This episode is given in the spirit of conscious choice and the weaving of realities. Way back when I gave the biggest disclaimer upon starting a show and I wanna hana HOU: I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE MY MIND! (I laugh AND im dead serious)

I do believe whole heartedly in the power of women coming together to support one another, to offer support and love and ALSO I believe it is a choice to call in FAMILY. There IS a sisterhood, there is a brotherhood, there is a GLOBAL ohana and STILL there is conscious choice to what those words, and those structures can mean to each individual.

Mahalo for listening to my mana'o (thoughts) on this. xx

and Finally the MOMENTUM is building once again. I have been in deep creation mode, and though much has exited and been stripped away in this season post 8/8 Maui Fires, this show remains, and I am grateful to those of you who continue to support and listen in. *major tears and heartfelt gratitude.

Mahalo NUI. Thank you for the last 3 years of growth. Thank you for the messages, the shares, the clients and community that came from this space. Now it is time for a NEWThe changes have been so great in the last few years that it has time for me to say goodbye. And I do so with a heart full of gratitude. For over a decade and hundreds of women I have had the pleasure of working with and mentoring, thank you for allowing me to serve you. Because that is what I know Im meant to do. and that is what I will continue to be guided by, Service. I plan to live the rest of my life IN service to the highest expression of Love and Liberation.

Im excited. and for those who choose to stay, I will see you soon ( ; xx U'ilani

In our world, we are told we must COMMIT, FOLLOW THROUGH, and my favorite PUSH through. We clap for the big finishes and rightfully so. Its amazing to work hard, and achieve! And in the midst of striving for achievement, belonging, love we accept some truths about "WHAT IT TAKES"Hereʻs where working in an embodied way has taken me: For far to long as women we have been taught to unconsciously reject and dim our feminine essence. Which overrides our NATURAL timelines, Which overpowers our deep inner knowing... which has us believing that WE are COMPLETELY IN control and that pushing, suffering, ENDURING will have us happy and thriving in the END. Whoa. In the End?Ok but what about NOW? What about TODAY? In this episode, I share my personal thoughts on this as it relates to relationships, business and self. Thoughts on why when we contort anything to fit a timeline or expectation outside of out inner knowing, we feel disconnected and in constant striving... WHat if we could remember the old way? Where we HONOR our intuition, STILL meet our goals AND Enjoy all along the way... Are you here for it? Mahalo for sharing space with me today in this way xx Uʻilani WANNA DIVE IN DEEPER?

Never in my life did I ever think I, Uʻilani , a girl who was a staunch Mormon girl, who lived to be GOOD, and being Liked meant more than anything else, would be speaking and teaching and leading in the ways I do now.

Todayʻs episode I invite you listen when you have time to do your own grounding work. To have a space to breathe, and hold yourself if what I share brings constriction in your body. Take breaks if needed as well. Maybe I talk about ME but really this is a WE conversation.

So much of what we have deemed as "normal" not having confidence, not loving ourselves, not being able to speak for our needs, our desires, sexual or not not being able to fully surrender isnt actually normal... and as we are in this season of remembering and reclaiming parts of our stories and identities, the part that so often gets left out of the conversation is reclaiming our innate Sexuality, and its own indivisual expression, because literally, we have all been hijacked by the patriarchy and colonialism especially in the Islands.

I talk about what trauma healing is from the perspective in the tantric approach and how the path can be simplified by our willingness to FEEL again...

I hope this serves you and that you know how deeply loved and connected we all are. xx Uʻilani

Today Im joined with my Best friend and support Queen Kawai Ah Quin who is interviewing ME

She and I began our embodiment journeys together exactly one year ago and so I am on the other side of the conversation ready to fill in the fragmented pieces of my unbecoming journey.

I am sharing my personal experiences, but trusting that what is personal is always universal and maybe a few of you will feel seen in your own path, that although sometimes misunderstood is very necessary.

My entry into Goddess began a year into my decent into my own "dark night of soul" and have never shared fully what was really happening in the back round... until TODAY.

So often we share our exciting beginnings and our triumphant "arrivals". But this is a personal look into the VOID. The unraveling and learning to truly as I always say BE more.

Beyond sharing my journey, I also share about what is "Gentle Business" and why you will be hearing about that more and more...

As always, I hope this served you in some way and that you will feel more supported in your journey as well

I Love You and I am Grateful to share space in this way xx Uʻilani

"If I only stopped making excuses"

"If I just push a little harder, get up a little earlier, stay up a little later..."

IF you have found you say these things often, this one is for you. Being a Female IN Business doesnʻt mean you have a feminine business. Maybe you donʻt even want one, but in this world of constant striving and PUSHING , letʻs talk about maybe Why you want to choose a new way. a new way that returns you to the OLD way.

The way in which we as women remembered to trust. Trust in ourselves, Trust in our bodies, trust in the spirit and trust in our Divine Timing, beyond words.

I hope this episode opens up curiosity NOT judgement. We are all unlearning and untangling and creating a more nourishing place for women to thrive, be it as leaders or just by example, and for that, I am so proud of US. xx, Uʻilani

A year ago I had no languaging around Embodiment or what it truly meant to live as Divine Feminine. I was a mentor. I had been a stylist, I taught people how to make money AND the secret to all my success came by way of diving into the INNER work.

No matter what I was leading, I realize I had ALWAYS been an intuitive coach. Knowing that self help and personal development is great, but ultimately our answers were and are ancestral and INSIDE of us.

It was this SENSE beyond what was "logical". and I get that we live in a society that prefers it to be so:

Thinking > Feeling

Head> Heart

Logic > Intuition

Rational > Mystical

Yet a year ago I found myself in my 1st Goddess Yoga Class, a womens sensual flow centered around Embodiment. and there it was. The piece I knew I had always yearned for. The words. The practice. The Homecoming.

In todayʻs episode I share WHY I am not a "life coach" no shade, but not my style.

Why cultivating our sensuality and embodied work will serve every aspect of our life

How Embodiment is our natural state and the true doorway to confidence, healing and self trust.

If you feel I have been speaking a "foreign language this year" in so many ways you are right. Because Embodiment can be mistaken for "sexy dancing" or more mindset.

I invite you to take a listen, especially if you are a leader of any kind and desire to live in your authenticity daily. We can restore balance in this world. and it is NOt through our doing but understanding and the practice of BEING in harmony with our incredible Vessels.

I hope this serves you and sparks more curiosity and compassion for yourself. I love you and I am thankful for your time xx

If there was gold medal given out for being the ultimate People Pleaser, trust me I would have earned a ton! So in todays episode I want you to know Im not calling you out, Im calling you in.

This conversation is looking at the ways we stay in an agreement to honor others before our own desires.

We feel when we TRY to play a bigger game we owe some kind of explanation which is much more draining than attempting anything more for our lives.

So consider this a wake up call because It was mine, to STOP letting your people pleasing ways get in THE WAY of you showing up fully this year for all that is on your heart and in your path already! xx Uʻilani

There have been messages we grew up with that dont only NOT serve us, but truly HOLD US, not only back but in a confusing loop.

My guest Jenny McGrath (MA, LMHC, SEP) is a national researcher on Purity Culture looking at the subjective experience of white women and women of color and the intersections of colonialism, racism through sexism and sexual oppression. Its a heavy conversation but so so needed.

This is ultimately about reframing our connection to our own bodies, our stories of belonging and opening ground for greater levels of compassion for ourselves and for the collective.

In todayʻs episode we talk about the disconnection with our bodies, based in cultural and societal stories, and the invitation to value our own autonomy and past experiences to learn our own truths and give space for others to own theirs.

Let’s call it.

There are moments where this self healing journey is EXHAUSTING.

Remember the days when you were cool being told “what to do” and accepting anotherʻs template of who you were supposed to be because it gave you a sense of security? "Like ok, I know what to expect."

But thats not you anymore.

You started to wake up and the Not KNOWING has guided you to “the work”.

but lately, the work feel like A LOT.

In this episode, special guest Tahiti Kulia: https://tahitikulia.com/ &

(https://www.instagram.com/tahitikulia/) drops in and guides us through a nourishing experience of Sufficiency and Surrender. Tahiti dedicates her work and her gifts to the women who came before her and as an offering to the future generations to come — and to all the women in her lineage that never had the chance to be the fully spirited woman they always desired to be.

Rooted in personal discovery Tahiti cultivates intentional living through wellness, design, and mysticism. Her creative gifts serve as an extension of her lifelong commitment to healing, developing an unwavering relationship with self-love, and working on practices to heal and serve the collective planet and its inhabitants.

We discuss “Enough-ness", being OPEN to the exploration of GODDESS stories and embodiment as a way to bring us deeper into compassion, expansion and allowance.

HEADPHONES ON- kinda episode

The feminine is RISING. She is rising in you. Perhaps I can give you tools and support, wing woman support in this remembering how that feels in your body because that's what the feminine is. It's about SPIRIT into the matter

That being said. You are a modern woman. A modern goddess and FINDING TIME for feminine embodiment practices is a HUGE hurdle

So I get it when you hear me say Pleasure and you say," Pfffft. Girl, I barely have time to work out!" I get that it becomes DEAD LAst most of the time

But maybe this episode will convince you otherwise. xx

In this episode, I give 3 KEY mindset shifts to prioritize and make SPACE for your ultimate HOLISTIC Tonic xx

Waiiiit… Isn't it GOOD to Be a GOOD GIRL?

I've been talking about this for while now and I decided I wanted to do a deeper dive today because this part of ourselves was engrained in so many of us.

Being GOOD was what my entire existence was measured up to.

Good girl, good woman, good wife, good mother, and yet why not GOOD enough?

Let's take a look at the template of GOOD. How that shows up and ask ourselves, is it time to Retire herrrrr?

,

Make those SMART Goals.

(btw That was made BY men, for men.)

And I lived by this for so long. Achieving goals was like checking off my to-dos.

But when the goals began to be about Looking successful rather than being in Alignment with my authentic nature, NO goal, brought the fulfillment I thought it would.

This one is for all my driven Wahine. Grateful for you. Here for you. We get to RE Define our version of success from here on out xx

Join me in a 2-hour LIVE Masterclass on 10/5/22: "A Sacred Shift" https://bit.ly/3LDKvKq

It's time for a social media cleanse! Not where you delete it all ( unless you want to cuz that's cool too) But where you investigate your energetic field online

Yes, it's a great place to connect, share, express, and build, but if there are NO RULES, there are NO RULES and that can give way for an all-access pass that maybe you don't wanna give.

In today's episode I share how we can share our truth without feeling the need to get people on board with us so we can feel better about what we share.

How to practice energetic protection and create Boundaries with your online audience.

If there is a topic you'd like me to cover like the one I did today, lmk!

msg me on insta @uilanitevaga or email @gobeyondthereef@gmail.com

*Lmk what shifts for you this week when you put these things in place xx, Uʻilani

Were you raised to believe to be Angry is Bad, or in my case "of the devil"?

Todayʻs episode I talk about leaning into Sacred RAGE.

Not Rage where we hurt, but where we burn away the SHAME that helps us HEAL.

I share vulnerably my downloads about the word Patriarchy and what leaving a Strict religion has made me see.

I talk about the damaging effects that shame and submissiveness have had on my life.

How having an embodiment process allows us to Process on a deeper level.

Allowing in SACRED RAGE dramatically opened me up to a new way of how I exist and relate to those I love and those I love to serve... you…You who feel healing is meant to go it alone. That is not how we are designed as women my sis.

It is my hope this episode serves and connects in some way even if you never grew up as I did, that through my sharing, you will find the courage to explore your own barriers of shame that may be keeping you at a standstill.

With so much love, I'm putting on a 2-hour LIVE Masterclass on 10/5/22: "A Sacred Shift" https://bit.ly/3LDKvKq

So much aloha to those of you who have been FEELING so much lately.

xx, Uʻilani

Today we're talking about why it's time to release all the pent-up emotion! Did you just wanna Skip this because I said EMOTION? I know.

That used to be me.

I used to be a super high achiever who would just FORCE my way through

I remember telling my kids to QUIET down! Quit that tantrum not realizing that they were Boxing and bottling that up and it would explode later in the later parts of their life than similarly I've gone through that experience myself and I'm here to challenge you guys to begin FEELING again. Because if you don't feel, those feelings must go somewhere and they shut down your body a little at a time... let's get into the depths of what it means to be in RELATION to our emotions and stop trying to control them.

Grateful for your listening, and even more, grateful when you share! xx, Uʻilani

When it comes to abundance, being in the flow, and living in gratitude… you are either here For it or you are not.

The universe doesn't do "half in/half out". It is a Decision. What do you need to CUT out, and cut through in order to step into what already belongs to you?

Today I share 5 UNexpected ways you could be blocking yourself from more abundance, 5 questions (and a mini bonus) to ask yourself if it is your desire to be in the vibration of Abundance and OVERflow

"I donʻt believe we are meant to hold on to our experiences, the hard ones, or the good ones for that matter. Weʻre meant to encourage each other, lift each other, support each other, share, and love one another... My heart and my prayer for you is that these words would offer you some kind of encouragement and would give you HOPE to choose life still, even if the worst thing happens to you..." - Shauna Dukes, author of EVEN IF, A Holistic Approach to Grief and Living a Joy-filled Life with Loss.

Today's episode is a gift. I had the pleasure of interviewing an incredible, mother, entrepreneur, inspiration, and pillar of hope in our community of Maui.

Shauna shares her wisdom of cultivating gratitude in all she does, as she embraces aging, life challenges, and growth through entrepreneurship in a way that is deeply loving and raw.

Shauna shares her story of caring for her son who is now in heaven and how she chose to become a vessel for HOPE in this world.

Her love is medicine, and it's my hope you will not only support her work but share it with your circle of influence no matter what hardships we all go through, Life is beautiful and we can always reach for JOY.

including a quote by one of my favorite books a Radical Awakening from Dr Shefali :

You cannot be good, only great

not great, GREATER, not greater, EXCELLENT

Not excellent, only perfect

Not perfect, only a war against the self…

The idea of MORE is truly a sickness that has plagued us for far to long... What about Less, space... even a VOID?

what does that bring up for you? In today's episode, I share some manaʻo around the Be more and do more mentality ...

Who are we if not the identity of daughter, wife, mother, caretaker?

What purpose exists beyond ensuring the needs and wants are met before my own?

sharing observations, my explorations… because I truly have seen the pursuit of MORE has stolen so much of our feminine essence.... shared in love xx

Best NOT to have keiki (kids) around in this episode

"Just fix your mindset."

"The problem is your mindset."

"If you think differently, then you will do differently."

So many different versions of this we have either had told to us or told to someone else... and to a certain degree it might be true, but in today's episode, I share WHY all this mindset work could be doing more harm than good IF you are leaving out the real driver... your subconscious mind which I have come to learn is actually the BODY.

Take what you want, leave the rest, but if you are really here for deep transformation this will set you free xx

“RUN Towards the thing that you fear most…” BEFORE the RUN, I wanna talk on what has kept me (and possibly some of you) BOUND for so long.

In this episode I am Sharing ONE of my awakenings and answering the question:

• Does Uʻilani still believe in God?

• Am I now a walking conflict or was it the teachings?

• Unshackling from the belief system of church I grew up in

• The Damage of Conditional worth and belonging

• Earning my card to participate

• What is greater NOW than the fear of “will I be accepted”

I pray you recognize where your own “good girl” conditioning is showing up, so you can sever its ties and claim more of your pure Divinity xx

*headphones on kinda episode

Todayʻs episode is not about sex. Its about sensuality and sexuality and our ability to be at HOME within our bodies. To prioritize feeling GOOD and tap into the most natural pathway to life force energy we possess. Many of us never learned to prioritize our sensuality I hope after this episode, you will. xx

If you are a business owner, a thought leader, a mother, and it is on your heart to Help others, you already know you must be able to guide. Guide in a way that others will see and FEEL the value in what it is you have to offer.

What IF you could stop the niche pressure and drama and create more EASE?

What if you could lead in such a way that felt true for you, safe for them?

What if you could call in what you want FASTER?

There is. and its not in how much content you create, or if you are "on point" with your messaging. It is this.... and we have known it all along, we just now can pin point and name it and a cultivate deeper understanding of it.

Let me know what you think, and I hope you enjoy sis

xx, Uʻilani

Your Voice is Valueble. Your MAGIC is needed, especially Now. But so many of us downplay our gifts, stifle our message and just say, ah, I have other things to do...

Todays episode lets lean into our discomfort with Speaking and Expressing because what if YOUR voice was the key for truly helping another wahine?

• with her relationships.

• with her self love

• with her healing

• with her abundance

I know you have a Heart to help others, my question is if they cant HEAR you, find you, Feel you, how then can we elevate one another??

Hope this serves you and you USE this practice every day. every day

The stories we grew up listening to, watching have shaped who we are and what we believe.. but are we asleep to the messages?

Do they serve our highest good?

Or are they just accepted by us because we want to be accepted in our culture and society as women.

Todays episode:

• I share my favorite movie and why i donʻt want to call it my favorite anymore.

• what question we can ask ourselves when we are READY to break the pattern of giving love and and "always getting hurt"

I hope this serves you sis as much as it helped shift things for me
