Empowered Way Podcast

Hello Empowered Wayers: There comes a moment in every woman's life when the noise of the world no longer satisfies the hunger in her soul. She has followed the rules. She has performed the roles. She has contorted herself into shapes that pleased others, even as it fractured her spirit. But more than this—she has been living a lie that cuts deeper than performance. She has been told she must choos...

Hello Empowered Wayers! When I was a new lawyer preparing for my very first trial, I believed John, my mentor, would be sitting beside me in the courtroom. He had guided me through the stages of litigation, helped me think through strategy, and answered my questions. On the morning of trial, I stopped by his office to confirm he would be sitting next to me at counsel table. I was so nervous that I...

Dearest Empowered Wayers, I was standing in my bathroom last week, rushing through my morning routine, when I caught a glimpse of my reflection. Not my hair, not the lines around my eyes. Something deeper. Something that made me stop. In that moment, the words from the Sufi poet, Rumi, surfaced like a prayer: “If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?” I had been irritat...

Hello Empowered Wayers: More than thirty years ago, I rode my motorcycle through a Texas rainstorm that stripped me down to fear, faith, and forward motion. I didn’t write about it then. I lived it. It wasn’t until last year that I finally put the experience into words, believing I was telling a story about surrender and survival. But something kept working on me after I published it. With time an...

Hello Empowered Wayers. There are moments in life when certainty stops working. Not in a dramatic way and not all at once. But slowly—like a familiar structure that once held you begins to creak under the weight of lived experience. What once felt solid no longer answers the questions you’re carrying. What once felt righteous feels brittle. And somewhere beneath the noise of opinions, expectations...

Hello Empowered Wayers! We are still at the beginning of the year (even though it feels as if it is flying by). Recently, on the Mystic Misfits Podcast , I spoke about the importance of being aware of your identity. Not your name, occupation, sexual orientation, or family origins, but who you are being in each moment. Identity springs from authority. Who or what do you accept as your authority? Wh...

Hello Empowered Wayers! You know when you find your people, the ones who resonate with your beliefs and love your stories? I discovered that level of compatibility on the Mystic Misfits Society Show. Of course, I was their guest (so they had to be nice to me), but there was something deeper going on. A shared desire to know yourself as you move in the world. See if you don’t agree. The link to the...

Dear Empowered Wayers: The world feels unstable right now. Invasions, recriminations, incessant fraud dominating the headlines. Everyone has an opinion about who’s right and who’s to blame, while the planet continues its ancient spin around the sun. I woke up this morning caught in a vortex of fear. My mind was cataloging every threat, every uncertainty, every reason to brace against what might co...

Happy New Year! I love the excitement and expectation of a new year beginning. It’s when we turn the calendar over that we begin again. But why wait for the year to change? We have been conditioned to tie our lives and identity to time and space. We are humans living in a material world. To keep that world orderly and predictable, time was invented and natural rhythms subsumed into a mechanical pr...

Hello Empowered Wayers. I am starting something new: The Sovereign Women’s Circle. Last night, as I sat down to write about it, something happened that always happens when women gather with intention. The words didn’t come from my head. They came from that deeper place—the one that knows we’re all connected, all walking each other home, all remembering together what we came here to do. So I’m shar...

Hello Empowered Wayers: I was standing at the kitchen sink, hands in dishwater that had gone lukewarm, when it hit me. Not like thunder. More like a door closing softly somewhere deep inside. A refusal. I could no longer twist myself into shapes to fit a world that valued money and productiveness over personal time with a newborn. My body knew my decision before I did. The Quiet Revolution Nobody’...

Hello Empowered Wayers: What if wealth wasn’t something you chased… but something you awakened to? Have you ever had one of those moments where you realize the way you’ve been thinking about something is too small for the truth it contains? That’s what happened to me with money. For most of my life, money felt like a tense conversation I’d rather avoid: numbers, spreadsheets, responsibility, fear,...

Hello Dear Ones, There’s something most people don’t understand about January 1st. It’s not a date on a calendar that changes you. It’s a doorway you’ve been given permission to walk through. And here’s the secret: you don’t have to wait until midnight to step through it. Why the New Year Works (When You Understand Timeline-Jumping) Every culture on earth marks time. We create ceremonies around be...

Dearest Empowered Wayers: Three years ago, I sat with a woman at a networking luncheon who changed everything for me. She asked about my pricing, and for the first time, I didn’t shrink. I didn’t apologize. I looked her in the eye and said, “$1,000.” She said yes. But that moment didn’t happen because I suddenly felt confident or repeated affirmations. It happened because I stopped making it about...

Hello Empowered Wayers! For years, I identified myself by an old story I used to justify lackluster results. It went like this: “I didn’t receive the same information about money and wealth creation my brother did. That’s why he’s rich and I am not.” I cringe even writing these words, but this story shaped my identity as a spiritual entrepreneur. When I launched a new product or service and the mo...

Dear Empowered Wayers: For one breathtaking moment, I saw through God’s eyes. Ten people walking a painted labyrinth on a gym floor, and suddenly they weren’t separate anymore—instead, there was one body of consciousness, walking on many feet. It took my breath away, and I understood something about Divine Love I’d never seen before. This moment came at the end of a year-long journey of transforma...

Dear Empowered Wayer: There’s a moment in the song,“Breaking Free” where the music drops away and all that’s left is a simple truth: I’m done twisting myself into shapes. When I wrote that line, I cried. Not because it was poetic. But because I knew—in my bones—how many women have spent their entire lives doing exactly that. Twisting, bending, and contorting themselves into whatever shape would ke...

Dear Empowered Wayers! I need to tell you about something I’ve been creating in the quiet spaces between everything else. Something that surprised me, moved me, and ultimately became one of the most meaningful projects I’ve ever undertaken. I’ve written an album called Sovereign Women Revealed. Not just any music— 6 songs that carry the teachings of Sovereign Women into melody and rhythm. These so...

Dear Empowered Wayer: There’s a quiet kind of science beneath everything we call “Love.” You can feel it when you exhale after a hard day and something inside you says, There—now you’re home. That’s not emotion; it’s your energy finding equilibrium and balance. Love, it turns out, has its own physics. Understanding Love as Energy: Beyond Emotion to Universal Law Think of it like gravity. You can’t...

Dear Empowered Wayers: I had everything I thought I wanted. A successful career that generated impressive revenue. Recognition in the legal field, and clients who thought I walked on water. But I remember sitting in my car after winning another trial and feeling completely empty. "I'm doing everything right," I whispered to myself. "So why do I feel so wrong?" If you're a woman entrepreneur or pro...

Dear Empowered Wayers: Years ago, when I first started my coaching practice, I always hesitated to quote the price for my programs. I knew I was trained well, competent in coaching, and yet…saying the number out loud made me cringe. I have spoken to many other women entrepreneurs who feel the same way. I have attended workshops and seminars where the speaker admonishes you to “charge what you’re w...

Hello Empowered Wayer: There are moments in my day when I feel so tired. Everything seems like a struggle and the results don’t appear when I think they should. The outward strategies to reach more people, to be seen and heard, many times fall flat, leaving me discouraged. If you resonate with the experience I just described, let’s take a moment and breathe together. Inhale deeply, hold for a few...

Hello Empowered Wayers! I was standing in my kitchen when the notification came through. Insight Timer had just published my new meditation on their Plus platform. And something happened in my body—a surge of energy that started in my chest and radiated outward. Not excitement, exactly. Something deeper. Recognition. Because I know what meditation has done for me. And I know what it can do for you...

Hello Empowered Wayers! When I hired my first financial advisor, he quickly learned that I didn’t know squat about investing. His tone turned from cordial to condensing when I began asking questions he found beneath him. The patronizing treatment I received woke me up to the fact I needed to learn more about wealth building. Fast forward to today - my coaching business is thriving and I love helpi...

Hello Empowered Wayers: I wrote the following article on October 18, 2018. When I reread it seven years later, in 2025, I noticed that the advice still applies. The strong emotions fueling so much of the chaos in the world is even more amplified and magnified now than seven years ago. You can be the one to change it. It all starts with you. When you choose to become present and step away from bein...
