| Re-introducing: The Brand That Breathes | 17 Jun 2026 | 00:01:53 | |
I was fully planning on waiting until the fall to re-launch my podcast. This will be about the 900th iteration of the theme of my show since starting the pod way back in 2021 but seeing that I am now here on Substack and I am writing two books and have an incredible redirection happening in my business; I felt no time better than the present to just go for it! While Iām still stumbling to find my way around the āStack and all of its incredible capabilities I wanted to just drop this here to prove that we donāt need to figure things out before we take the leap, pass āgoā, and dive headfirst into the wild Unknown! This little preview episode is just a teaser about what to expect in upcoming episodes. Welcome to The Brand That Breathes. Iām Meg Pearson. Over the last twenty-five years, Iāve been a television director, yoga teacher, chef, retreat facilitator, breathwork practitioner, entrepreneur, author, mother, and professional pivoter. Iāve started over more times than I can count. Some of those pivots were exciting. Some were devastating. Some I chose. Some chose me. Along the way Iāve navigated eating disorder recovery, bankruptcy, grief, sobriety, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and the uncomfortable realization that a life can look successful on paper while feeling completely disconnected from who you really are. This podcast was born from a simple belief: That becoming yourself is rarely a straight line. Each week, weāll explore the messy, beautiful process of reinvention through honest conversations about identity, business, creativity, spirituality, recovery, relationships, purpose, and what it actually means to build a life that fits. Youāll hear solo episodes, conversations with fascinating guests, audio essays from my Substack, behind-the-scenes reflections from my upcoming books, and the kinds of discussions that usually happen after everyone else has gone home and the masks finally come off. This is the podcast for women who are too smart for self-help b******t but still want a more meaningful life. Because your identity isnāt your logo. It isnāt your website. It isnāt the version of yourself youāve been performing for the world. Your brand is the living, breathing expression of who youāre becoming. And if youāre in the middle of a reinvention, a pivot, a breakdown, a breakthrough, or simply asking bigger questions than you used to, youāre in the right place. Welcome to The Brand That Breathes. If you enjoy The Brand That Breathes and youād like to support the show, the best way to help is by leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Reviews help more women discover these conversations, and they tell the podcast platforms that this kind of honest, nuanced discussion is worth sharing. As a thank you, Iām giving away my upcoming mini-course, The Brand That Breathes: A Four-Step Process for Reconnecting to Who Youāre Becoming. This isnāt a branding course. Itās an identity course. A chance to pause, take stock of where you are, and reconnect with the woman youāre evolving into beneath the expectations, roles, responsibilities, and noise. Whether youāre navigating a career change, a relationship shift, motherhood, an empty nest, a business pivot, recovery, reinvention, or simply feeling the pull toward something more authentic, this work is for you. If youāve left a review, head over to instagram and send me a screenshot , and Iāll make sure you receive the course when itās released.

| 4. Human Design & Your Career | 10 Jun 2021 | 00:37:36 | |
Human Design is the contract your soul makes with Universe about who you came to be, what you came to experience and what karma you came to correct in this life. By learning all about your design, you can become the most authentic version of you! I am so excited to be training to read Human Design myself, as it has been SO helpful for me and I know it will be an integral part to my coaching practice moving forward. Today I speak with Alejandra Hernandez of "Empowher Change" about what this self-discovery method is all about and how it can help influence one's career choice and path. According to Ale, Human Design "is a powerful tool to play with and see how things begin to change in your life as you experiment living according to your design. Itās a tool that gives us permission to be ourselves. Itās a tool that is meant to empower; nothing here is good or bad, it just IS." We discuss:

LIMITED SERIES Podcast: Burn it Down (where I get some things off my chest and transition fully into digital marketing here on the pod) Politics and spirituality arenāt separate - they never were. In this episode, I share my own journey from head-in-the-sand avoidance to seeing politics as a mirror of character and values. From the vaccine moment that exposed cracks in the spiritual community, to the dangerous overlap of religion, politics, and cult dynamics, I unpack why neutrality is no longer an option. If your spirituality doesnāt translate into equality for all humans, itās not spirituality; itās performance.

LIMITED SERIES Podcast: Burn it Down (where I get some things off my chest and transition fully into digital marketing here on the pod) The line between spirituality and religion isnāt as clean as we like to believe. From hierarchy and ritual to toxic leaders and spiritual bypassing, many āwellnessā spaces mirror the very systems they claim to break free from. In this episode, I unpack the parallels, call out the manipulation, and share why true spirituality is found in the quiet, everyday moments; not in costly certifications, cult-like communities, or curated Instagram feeds.
