This episode is a transmission on the space we all know too well: waiting.

But what if waiting isn't the problem... What if it's how we exist within it?

We explore the difference between waiting as a draining habit and patience as a conscious practice. From everyday delays to deeper life pauses, this conversation unravels the hidden cost of putting life on hold and the quiet power of staying present instead.

This is your invitation to stop abandoning yourself in the in-between and start reclaiming your energy, your time, and your becoming.

We unpack how waiting slowly drains us and why patience isn't passive, it's intentional.

This new moon arrives during a crazy retrograde season! Neptune, Saturn and Mercury are creating a triple planetary synergy. Leo being fierce and confident helps stay light-hearted and encouraged during it all. 

The full moon in Capricorn is about the sacred confrontation of our habits, patterns and the ways we have been BE-ing.  As this Capricorn Full Moon kicks off, so does the retrograde season of three significant planets! Capricorn and its grounding energy is the perfect sign to move us into the last sixmonths of this year. We are encouraged to let things go or evolve them. We are asked to hold on tight to our visions while understanding that there is a process and divine timing.

Manifestation is a popular subject that captures everyone's attention, even if we don't always use the term. Whenever we strive to achieve, acquire, or create something, we are engaging in the process of manifestation. 

This episode delves into the impact of our negative thoughts on our ability to manifest desires, as well as the pressure of feeling inadequate in our manifestation skills can lead to various health concerns.
