As the seasons shift, so do we. In this episode, I explore the natural rhythms of winter into spring and how aligning with these cycles can support our personal growth, well-being, and transformation. Winter invites us to pause, reflect, and do the deep inner work that prepares us for the expansion of spring. Just like a seed gathering energy beneath the soil, we, too, cultivate our potential in times of stillness before stepping into renewal.

We’ll dive into the symbolism of seeds, the significance of crossroads, and the practices that help us move with the changing seasons—not against them. If you’ve been feeling stuck or unsure about your next steps, this conversation will help you tune into the wisdom of nature and embrace the unfolding process of your own becoming.
