As the next chapter of life begins to unfold, grief clouds around me like fog. But not the kind that would otherwise make the air humid, or the chest tight. Instead, it feels like a cocoon; a quiet place to retreat before the next events arrive. The Glow Code podcast’s first episode arrived on August 1st, 2025. It has held beautiful conversations about femininity, manifesting, and arriving into a...

What you do in the world isn’t an obligation; it’s a calling. Many of us have walked the path of curiosity; of asking “who am I?” And “what is my purpose?” In a fast-paced world, we can end up moving in such a rush as if God/Universe gave us only 2 seconds on a clock to accomplish everything we want in this lifetime. There are two types of time that the Ancient Greeks believed in: Chronos: Measura...

“Letting go” is a concept commonly thought of as one of the last stages of manifestation; the thing you do after setting intentions, creating vision boards, and keeping up with your daily affirmations. Some see letting go as giving up. Others see it as a hopeful state of surrender, when you don’t know what possibly more you could do to bring your desire into the 3D, and now you’re taking your foot...

Part 2 w/ my doula Britt Mason on moving through discomfort!

Halfway through pregnancy with our baby BOY!! Little did I know at the start of this pregnancy that he had been dropping me hints all year to let me know he was on his way. Listen to hear the full story on how creating my pen/brand name was a sign from him, the doves he sent that our neighbors thought were our pets, and the crashout I had from our Sneak Peek early gender test! The Spirit Baby Diar...

Last weekend, I became sucked into a new TV show on Netflix called ‘Sandokan.’ I’m typically not someone who watches action-heavy shows, but there was a beautiful love story, and I knew of the actor from another show! The dynamic in the show between the female lead and her two love interests lead me to think about some of the archetypes that I’ve written about in romance books, as well as how thes...

You know that feeling; When you’re home alone, your favorite Netflix show is on in the background, you’ve just saged your house, and are about to indulge in a sweet treat. Everything is calm, and peaceful, until you pick up your phone. Or, someone comes over and brings a stressful story. Or, you realize your smoke alarm is about to go off from the delectable, chocolate chip cookies you’re over-bak...

2026 is right around the corner, and I think we have all been in anticipation of 2025 coming to a close! This year was a massive year for people to shed, release, and let go of old habits, thoughts, and identities. If this year rocked your world (in a turbulent way) you’re not alone! 2025 was a 9 year in numerology, making 2026 a 1 year. That means that 2026 will be a year of fresh starts and new...

Life isn’t a standalone book; it’s a series. However, most fantasize the main character moment where they’ll be victorious after landing a new job, finding the perfect relationship, or getting their dream body. It provides this feeling of an exhale, and safety. What you may not realize is that safety is the key to all manifestation. It anchors us into this body, this timeline, and this reality. We...

Every waking moment of your life plays an important role in the path to your creative fulfillment. We tend to think that our life purpose is somewhere ‘over there’, beyond our reach that we must attain in order to be fulfilled. Just like a puzzle, each piece is important. And everything you’ve experienced up until now, whether positive or negative, has shaped you into the person you are today. Whe...

Happy Halloween! Today was the perfect day to release this episode on grief, and how romanticizing it uplevels your feminine healing journey. Most people will tell you to romanticize your life through buying fresh flowers or wearing a pretty dress, and while these are all aesthetically pleasing and soothing to our environment, a true, soft, romantic life requires romanticizing your grief. This doe...

You or someone you know have probably experienced a “gut feeling” at least once in their life. Dreams and gut feelings are the most popular (and culturally accepted) forms of intuition, but there is an entire guidance system in our bodies that most of us aren’t taught to tap into! Creatives are slowly moving away from the “starving artist” archetype with the access to online resources and opportun...

I had the opportunity recently to partner with a book club who hosted my fantasy romance novel “Threads of Flames and Starlight” for the month of September (which was my birthday month!) I was invited to the meeting at the beginning of October, and had the most amazing time doing Q&A and chatting with everyone. This episode is a recap of that night, and I’m manifesting doing this again soon! Subsc...

If the Mean Girls movie scene with the quote, “How many of you have ever felt personally victimized by Regina George?” where a real life scenario, we’d all be raising our hands if asked if we’ve been triggered. It’s part of life. But what most don’t learn is how to use our triggers, otherwise known as reflections, to help us grow. In this episode, we discuss the Mirror Theory aka the Law of Reflec...

When you think of an independent woman, who comes to mind? Is she someone who can hold her own, and is also a bright light in the world? Or has she made a beautiful life for herself, while feeling anxious, unsafe, and unfulfilled? In the debate of the “independent woman,” some claim that it is rooted in anger and unattractive, while others find a woman’s ambition a turn on. This podcast is a refle...

You: “I am successful” Your Brain: “You’re not the one who got the promotion.” You: “I am financially abundant.” Your Brain: “What about the $500 we just spent on car repairs? Or the 2k sitting on the credit card. Oh, and we need more groceries.” Sound familiar? Affirmations have been a gateway to allowing us to entertain the possiblity of a new life, identity, and environment. However, our mind h...

“The Universe is My Sugar Daddy” phrase in feminine-based businesses is slowly fading out, but for this reason: We don’t receive by saying affirmations and meditating all day This energy pulls us out of our healthy femininity, and into codependent energy that takes us away from recognizing our inner power. Sure, it’s a fun and sexy affirmation But do we misunderstand what actually goes into a Suga...

It’s a myth that the masculine leads first. It is the feminine. She sets the example for how she craves to be adored, loved, and cherished. Then the masculine follows suit. Like romantic connections, the association we have with our desires are a relationship that desires to be nourished. By acquainting ourselves with the sensations, and sensuality, of having our desires in the 3D reality, the uni...
