Episode 133: June Energies and Retrogrades With Laura Chung02 Jun 202101:16:13
I'm back with another solo episode. I wanted to show up, again, as I recorded this on the first day of June; the halfway point of 2021. In this episode, I wanted to share my intentions with this community and how I want to show up going forward. This last lunar eclipse was a doozy. It really illuminated my limiting beliefs about myself and fears that have been simmering in my subconscious. Doing shadow work and going inward can be a very lonely place. It's not for the faint of heart. This is why it's so important to me to remind you that you're not alone. Going through more difficult times in our lives is divinely orchestrated by our Higher Selves and our Spiritual team - I truly believe we are divinely protected and guided. I go more in-depth about this in the episode so hopefully, you'll meet me there.    In This Episode:
  • I have an announcement!
  • The invitation for us during the Mercury and Saturn retrogrades.
  • Healing my lack mentality and shifting to an abundance mindset.
  • What I've learned during these transits and how I've been applying them to my life and business. 
  • Healing is a spiral and each time, you are given the opportunity to heal deeper and gain more wisdom. 
  • June is a month for change and making decisions.

Karen Perez is truly a face behind a mask-- the mask. The New York-based Stylist/Designer launched Second Wind, a boutique quickly turning heads for its empowering line of handcrafted masks. Amid the coronavirus pandemic as well as recent waves in social justice reform, this bold Latina sought to embrace a new “normal” with her talents. As clients inquired about stylish masks that wouldn’t hinder their busy lives, she designed a mask that could enhance the natural contour of feminine features while remaining true to practicality while making a statement for women. Second Wind carries the intent to empower women with every decision. With every piece Second Wind brings to life, there is a message of spirit, equality, and persistence as the world embraces a new normal. Since the brand launched in June 2020, Second Wind has received press recognition in outlets such as Vogue and WWD, and support from women like none other than AOC.

  • Her mindset at the start of the pandemic and how she shifted her perspective during a time of uncertainty.
  • How Second Wind was born out of a time of rest, creativity, and a passion to serve people.
  • The moment she realized her passion project was more than just a trend from the pandemic.
  • Creating a mask business; a product that is so politicized

  • The power of the collective. How her community stepped in to bring awareness and accountability for the stolen designs. Being featured in Diet Prada and going viral.
  • How she met AOC.
  • How she received all the press and dream collaborations.
  • What she told herself during those hard times when she had $10 in the bank.
  • At the end of the episode, Karen asks me what I feel we should expect in the next 6 months of 2021.

Episode 228: Astrological Midlife Transits Part 2 With Dr Nicole Truesdell13 Feb 202501:19:38

This is Part 2 of our Astrological Midlife Transits Stories. Are you going through a midlife crisis or are you going through your astrological middle-age transits? This episode is in collaboration with Dr Nicole Truesdell, the host of the Abolitionist Dreamscapes podcast. We share our experiences of these midlife transits as two 40 something women of color going through the thick of it. Your midlife years (36-45) can be some of the most triggering yet transformational times of your life if you surrender to the journey. During these midlife years, the outer planets which are generational planets, activate you to look deeper into yourself and to break free of the status quo. This begs the question, is it only the youth that will save us or awakened mid-lifers as well?
