A Bit From Within with Felicia Marti

It's that final week of 2022- and let's make some room for ALL the things that might be coming up for you right now. One of the things I've been bumping into recently is the feeling of having nothing left in my tank to give. So many of you are the kind of people who give so much of your care, love, and energy giving to others, and sometimes you feel left with nothing. It's challenging! So how do y...

I have been sick in bed the last few days, which has given me quite a bit of time to reflect on this year and all that it has brought. Today on the podcast as I went to share my thoughts with you, I stumbled upon some important personal revelations as I was sharing my heart. After I finished recording I had another revelation- that the reason it's so important to jog your memory and reflect on the...

There are so many misconceptions and missed opportunities that traditional thinking around the "new year" can bring. Personally, I typically feel SO much pressure at the start of the new year to fully embrace the blank slate and to even step into that "new year, new me" kind of mindset. As you'll hear me share a lot on the pod- I completely understand the excitement and hope that a new opportunity...

Today I am sharing a rather long podcast episode all about my trip to Florida last week. For me, travel is often a time for reflection and to find clarity- and I definitely had that experience while I was away from home. Clarity, however, doesn't always mean finding the answers to every question that you have. For me I'm still living in a place with big question marks, but the clarity for me came...

Today's episode featured Amber Marti, my sister, who recently made a cross country move from Denver to Florida! I thought it would be perfect to have her share a bit from within on what went into making that decision, how she coped with the stress of change, and how she knew it was the right thing to do. I know so many of us struggle with the idea of taking big risks, and even struggle with the he...

If you are feeling far from thankful this time of year, please know that you are not alone. So many of us struggle silently this time of year while we feel the world expects us to be happy and grateful. Inside we're struggling with grief, anxiety, and stress, and then we feel guilty on top of it all for feeling that way at all. Today on the podcast we are addressing the many stressors including th...

Hi everyone! Are you struggling with self care? So many of us are struggle with different anxieties and life stressors, which always make real self care more challenging- but you can do it! And you are worth it! Today on the podcast we'll discuss how to make yourself a priority, how to face fear, anxiety, and self sabotage in order to start making more room to take care of you. It take courage to...

Hi everyone! Happy LUNAR ECLIPSE! I don't know if it's best to say happy eclipse- but I do think this is a transformational time, and especially this week- a big reminder from the Universe on letting go. On this week's episode of the podcast I'll preview a bit of info on the eclipse! And I'm sharing on the topic of that crazy sense of urgency that so many of us feel compelled to move through our l...

Signs that the Universe is trying to tell you something, and how to listen to those signs and symbols as you tune in to your self. This is a big part of self care, self love, and self transformation work. As it's Scorpio season we're also talking about Scorpio inspired self care ideas for the month ahead, and how to prepare for darker days, and the New Year (which is right around the corner). Join...

Lately I've been spending a lot of time reflecting on the oh so varied labels we've put on to ourselves, and have made serious parts of our identities. As you'll hear me wrestle with on the pod, there some times in our lives where labels are a good thing- where they help other to understand us better, and create a safe space in areas we're exploring, furthering our commitments to things we find va...

When it comes to the holidays, the need to set real boundaries can become more important than ever, and yet harder to do so than at any other time. That's on a subject like standing up for yourself that's already incredible challenging. Here's how to know when it's time to stand up for yourself, and just how to know if it's time to do that, and the important things you have to consider when it com...

"Once she stopped rushing through life, she was amazed at how much more life she had time for." I found this quote on one of my pinterest boards that I had saved more than 10 years ago. As soon as I saw it, I knew that past me was saving this for future me, because WOW does this speak to me right now. As I step into the leap of faith with transitioning careers and saying goodbye to what I've known...

As a new month rolls in I've been taking a look at some of the things I've been feeling a bit insecure about, and instead decided I'm not going to feel bad for some of these things anymore! So often we fall into these old patterns of feeling bad for things we probably should never have been made to feel bad about- and WE are the only ones who can stop that cycle in it's tracks. You can join me if...

We all have mental chatter that sometimes goes on for long periods of time, sometimes steering us off course, sometimes keeping us afraid, sometimes standing in the way of great opportunities, or breakthroughs, or even PEACE. Today on the podcast I share about some of my own battles with my mental chatter, those inner critical voices and some of the gentle ways I've been working to reframe those v...

Thursday brings the start of Fall this year, the autumn equinox here in the Northern Hemisphere. With that I've been thinking a lot about finding balance on the inside. Inner balance can be found in many ways, but the most important thing is that we make space for what's truly going on for us. Life is never going to give us exactly what we want when we want it, it's never going to make our relatio...

How can we be okay with each season of our lives? This is a good question, and one that I ruminate on during today's episode of the podcast. More so specifically about finding acceptance for where we're at, and for who we are surrounded by. So often we talk about being empowered to make changes with our circumstances, but there's also something to accepting the season of our life for what it is, a...

"You're too hard on yourself" is a phrase I've heard over and over in all chapters of my life- and it honestly has taken many years to finally begin to let go and soften some of the expectations I've had for myself. From fear of failure to issues around not feeling good enough if I wasn't perfect, contributing, or exceeding the expectations of others (and myself)- it felt impossible to "be less ha...

I'm telling you it's time to slow down- but I'm sure you don't need me telling you that you can already feel it. OR you're sitting here cursing at the screen because this message is quite inconvenient and meets you at a time when you don't feel like you can! Trust me- you're not alone. Today on the podcast I'm talking all about the times in life when the Universe is slowing us down and the normal...

The rituals we embrace become part of the magic we cultivate in our life. They also support us with a trusted process in which we can become totally present, focusing on being in the moment. On today's episode we discuss everyday rituals and how you can turn any routine you do into something more important and meaningful to you- turning it into an important ritual for yourself. We also dive into t...

Authenticity may be a buzz word these days- but for good reason because it's such a powerful word. I’ve always loved this word and feel like it's a more powerful version of genuine. When you’re authentic- you’re true to who you truly are. You're living with honesty. When we're NOT living authentically, it's usually because we don't realize that we're doing so. I don't think any of us mean to be fa...

Does it feel like August is already flying by? I feel it- and I feel the change that seems to be everywhere in the air right now. When things are changing it's really easy to feel fear and anxiety crop up more inside of us. That's why this week on the podcast I'm talking a lot about making space inside our selves to deal with our discomfort, how to choose yourself, and how to rely on yourself to g...

Today I am deep diving into a topic close to my heart right now which is the ways we can look back at our own personal history to find inspiration or missing pieces to where we're stuck in our lives right now! Remember: looking back is not to wish we were who we used to be. We've got to be proud of who we've become, and all the work that's gone in to being who we are and where we are today. That s...

Do you ever find yourself craving the new year's arrival just so you have a chance to "have a fresh start?" Totally understandable. But you do not need a new year, or a new month, a new moon, or even a new week to hit that reset button in your life. This desire to crave a reset, an then how to go about finding the changes you want in your life is at the heart of this week's episode of the podcast....

Dave and I tested positive on the Capricorn Full Moon- the last full moon of in a year of lunar cycles since Dave came down with his first long haul covid symptom last December. Honestly I hadn't fully put that together until right as I was recording this, sharing a bit from within with you. It made me realize and hope that somehow through healing and recovering from this bought of covid can full...

Are you ready for the first Full Moon of the summer? I hope so because this one brings huge opportunities for us to explore what's going on inside of us. I'm already starting to feel that and I think you'll hear that loud and clear in this week's episode all about giving ourselves permission to evolve instead of solve: i.e. trying to "fix" ourselves. In our world it is so easy to get bogged down w...
