Ever spiral into comparison and feel totally sticky and shameful about it? You’re not alone. This episode is a reframe, softening, and real-time somatic support guide for rethinking comparison & coming into ownership of it - so you can build more authentic connections.

The how is through the body, and Bri Landry (somatic coach!) guides you through it. This conversation is deep, honest, and relatable - so get ready to:

• Feel seen in your experiences of comparison (we both share raw experiences with it!)
• Reframing what comparison actually reveals about your unmet needs & what it mirrors back to you
• Reclaiming agency from feeling "less than" and using your body as a tool for moving through it
• Somatic steps for when your head starts to spiral (on comparison or anything else) so your body can be a guide
• The dangers of comparison and pedestaling others as a disservice to the communities you're trying to build
• More on labels, somatic practices, embodiment, community, and belonging!
• Unhinged chicken story that is ridiculous and has no right to be in this episode, other than the fact I had to get it off my chest.

You made the move, said yes, leaned in… now what? This episode explores the energetics AFTER that firey initial new project, business, offer (or even identity) moment.

As edgy as launching is, the real "work" is what comes after - I've seen too many people fall off of what they start (which is totally fine - as long as that's a conscious CHOICE!). This episode gives you the tools that make sure that's the case for you and what you bring into the world.

Because sustaining something is often harder than starting it—and most of us don’t talk about the emotional, energetic, or strategic whiplash that follows that fiery first leap.

🎙️ In this episode, we dive into:

• Language for the energetic shift that happens after a launch moment (there are options and different directions this can go aka why it can feel so disorienting)
• How that firey spark gives way to water aka feelings to process
• Tapping into earth energy & fixed energy to create sustainability to keep showing up
• When it's okay to NOT finish what you start
• Overview of the "modes" of astrology (Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable) and how those patterns play into this real world dynamic
• Questions to help you reflect on your “post-launch” cycle so you can claim more agency in it

Tune in for some real talk storytelling, grounded astrology, and practical questions to help you understand your own rhythm when it comes to starting, sustaining—or releasing—something new.

Ever feel like your routines, labels, or rituals are boxing you in more than holding you up?

In this episode of Down to Energy, we’re talking all things structure—when it supports us, when it stifles us, and how to know the difference. I explore the energetics behind the systems we build in our lives (from the conceptual to the mundane), and a new lens on when it’s time to release, refine, or reinforce structure, boundaries, etc.

We'll consider it in three contexts, regarding: self, to do's and creative output.

Get ready for:

• Labels that feel empowering vs. limiting (personal examples re: "partner," "perfectionist," and "fiancé")
• How to dance between Earth, Water, and Fire energy that's at play here
• Ways to structure your creative flow without limiting yourself
• Why Uranus at the end of Taurus is your invitation to shake things up
• A hot tea analogy you never knew you needed

Whether it’s your Substack cadence, your morning walk routine, or the identity you’ve outgrown, this episode offers reflection prompts, practical energetics, and real talk to help you reconnect with what’s true now.

Let’s break it down (so you can rebuild it better).
