65. Do We Have Manifestation All Wrong?
Most "manifestation 101" techniques describe things like affirmations and vision boards. They talk about the idea that, if you repeat something often enough, it will come into your reality.
Which is a great start for some people. But - they also either don't work for everybody, or they stop working after a period of time.
That's because those techniques don't always get at the one thing that's actually creating your reality: your state of being.
The mistake most people make is letting their current reality dictate their state...
64. Unexpected Ways Your Thoughts Create Your Reality
Most people know the phrase "your thoughts create your reality." But have you ever considered exactly how our thoughts do that? And what parts of our reality they influence?
In today's episode, that's what I break down. I start with an explanation of what our subconscious mind is and how it gets programmed, then share some unexpected ways that my subconscious thoughts have shown up in my life.
š Key points:
There is no objective reality. What you experience is a reflection of what's in your subconscious.Your subconscious mind is programmed at a y...63. Thinking You Need to Do More Is What's Blocking You
As a high achiever, it's probably no surprise that I put a lot of pressure on myself to constantly do more and achieve higher.
But what I've realized these past few weeks was - I'm actually doing a lot of things really great. I don't need to do more. What was "blocking" me from experiencing results was just me thinking I wasn't doing enough.
Once I shifted the story, everything lightened up.
If you feel like you're doing a lot but not seeing the results you expect⦠maybe you're not doing it wrong. Ma...
62: You Won't See Signs The Same After This Episode
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign!
Asking for a sign is a common topic in the spiritual community. I have seen countless over the years: repeating numbers, animals, four leaf clovers. I've given them meaning. Questioned them. Celebrated them. Fought with them. Questioned them again.
All to get me here - where I received a powerful message about signs and their meaning.
š That's what I share this week:
My relationship to signs: how it started, and how it's evolved over the yearsThat seeing a sign is a typ...61.5: Colombia Part 2 - Bonus Coaching for Travelers
I'm back with part 2 of my Colombia series! (If you missed part 1, it's linked below. You may want to listen to that one first.)
After my experience to Cuba, I thought it could be helpful to include coaching - both before and during - as a bonus to anyone that signs up. It's not mandatory - just something I'm offering to see if it's beneficial.
That's what this episode is all about!

I'm hosting a women's trip to Colombia in January 2027!
I had such a great time on my trip to Cuba that I decided to host my own women's trip to Colombia. In this episode, I sit down with Laura Ericson, my travel planner, and discuss all things Colombia: what initially drew her there, what she loves most about it, and the changes she's making for this trip to be even better than her first one.
š We discuss:
The convenience of joining a trip that's entirely planned for youWhy my Cuba exp...60. What if Divorce Was Always the Plan?
I recorded this episode on the heels of my divorce hearing. In it, I share my thoughts on a post that's been with me for months: what if divorce was always the plan?
That doesn't mean I consciously got married expecting to get divorced.
But maybe - just maybe - there was a higher power that knew what I desired in a relationship, and orchestrated my first marriage to help me prepare for exactly that.
š Key takeaways:
Why I would have fumbled a great man had I m...59. Getting Job Clarity Using Energy and Identity Work
This episode is a little different from past episodes I've recorded.
I coached a client through a common issue: should I go for the new job, or stay in the one I have? I had so many nuggets for her that I decided to summarize them into a podcast.
She came to me looking for job clarity. She had a long of logical reasons why the new job would be a better fit; and yet, she was still confused.
I did something different than a typical career conversation.
Instead of talking...
58. Why Are We So Afraid of our Power?
In this episode, I explore a question I've heard many times: why are we so afraid of our power?
And - what exactly do we mean when we say "power?" I feel like it's a term that gets thrown around, but without a common idea of what it actually means.
That's what I explore today: what I think of when I hear "power," and some of the unconscious reasons I've witnessed (and personally experience) that keep people from fully owning theirs.
I end with an exercise to help you feel your power now.<...
57. Are You Healing, or Stuck In An Identity Loop?
Welcome to a new season of the podcast! I am in love with this upgrade because it takes me out of the box I've felt stuck in. Previously, I was trying to (unsuccessfully) niche down and talk to a particular audience about particular tools or methodologies. But that didn't work for me because there's so much I want to talk about!
So introducing: Aligned & Powerful - a podcast where I get to talk about the spiritual journey, nervous system regulation, personal growth, identity work, and all the things I am obsessed with learning about.

In this episode, Andrea shares the raw, unfiltered truth of what it has looked like to walk through ego death, heartbreak, and spiritual surrender in real time. She opens up about the unraveling that happens when the version of you that once survived can no longer lead you forward.
----
Thanksgiving week cracked me open. What should have been an easy āI donāt see us being togetherā conversation turned into a full-bodied excavation of decades of patterns around self-worth, chasing validation, and outsourcing my value.
As I processed, I found myself...
55. How I'm Calling In My Divine Partner
In this episode, Iām opening the door to a deeply personal chapter: how I began calling in my divine partnerābefore my marriage actually ended. I share the exact inner shifts, intuitive nudges, and spiritual conversations with God that helped me see that there was another way to live⦠and that my desires werenāt wrong, selfish, or disruptive. They were guidance.
š Key Takeaways:
What is a Divine Partner?Why and how I started calling him in while I was still marriedHow I stopped trying to "figure it out" and let God lead the wayWhy...54. Back To My Feminine Energy, Pt. 2: Healing The Wounded Feminine

Andrea shares her personal journey of deconstructing her masculine conditioning and reconnecting with her feminine energy - shifting from overworking and controlling to resting, trusting intuition, and reclaiming her magnetic power.

In this episode, I open up about my personal journey of releasing masculine conditioning and rediscovering what it mean...

50. Who Are You Being When No One is Watching?
I was at a conference last week that had me asking: what's the purpose of a conference, anyway? Sure, they can inspire and teach. But are they enough to build powerful leaders?
I conclude that conferences play an important role in activating leaders, but they do not create leaders. In my world, powerful leaders are created in how they habitually show up for themselves when no one is watching.
In this episode I discuss traits like overcoming imposter syndrome, learning from failure, and acting from a place of "I am enough"...
49. The Cuba Stories I Didn't Share Before
In this episode, I reflect on my transformative trip to Cuba in January 2025, sharing stories I didn't share previously on the podcast. The memories I share from Havana and Vinales are the ones still alive in me 9 months later, and helped shape some of my recent decisions.
This trip was a major reset for me. The immense feeling of freedom I experienced while I was there reminded me what it feels like to honor myself and be in my own energy. I knew the feeling I activated in Cuba was available to me at home...

32. Thank You for Triggering Me
Trigger warning! Today, I am talking about⦠triggers. Not necessarily those traumatic examples that tend to come with a trigger warning. Iām talking about triggers in general ā those moments when something happens and we experience fear, shame, anger, or other reactive emotions.
Years ago, I decided that I was going to take responsibility for my emotions. Instead of blaming someone else for how I felt, I was going to investigate why I was feeling that way. After years of doing this, I can tell you that no trigger happens without purpose. There is a wealth...
