In this episode of Energy Talks, we explore how trusting your intuition can guide the big decisions in motherhood, from navigating healthcare choices, to reevaluating school systems that don’t always support our kids' natural energy. We share how different cultures approach health and parenting, why we lean into holistic options like Chinese medicine, and the emotional load that comes with advocating for our children in a world that often prioritizes quick fixes over deeper healing.

Tune in for more on:
• The difference between European and American pharmacy and health approaches
• Why Chinese medicine and slow healing can be more effective
• Our concerns with labeling kids too early and relying on medication
• How school structures may clash with energetic, movement-driven children
• Homeschooling, alternative models, and giving kids space to thrive
• The importance of tuning into intuition and not feeling guilty for doing so

In this episode of Energy Talks, we reflect on the energy stirred by recent global events and eclipses, and how they’ve pushed many of us to reevaluate what truly matters. From the chaos comes clarity, a call to release old patterns and step into a deeper sense of purpose, connection, and compassion. We talk about the power of forgiveness, the shift away from fear, and the importance of living more present in a world that often pulls us away from ourselves.

Tune in for more on:
• What eclipse energy brings up emotionally and spiritually
• Why forgiveness brings freedom and helps shift collective energy
• How social media may be fueling division, and how to step back
• Living with intention, faith, and purpose in uncertain times
• Choosing presence over distraction in parenting and daily life
• The ripple effect of doing good and staying connected to community

In this episode of Energy Talks, we unpack the very different ways we approach summer with our kids. Alyssa embracing slow, unscheduled days by the ocean, and Vanessa finding energy in structure, camps, and connection. Through honest conversation, we explore how culture, environment, and our children’s unique needs shape the season, and why tuning into what feels right for your family is the real key.

Tune in for more on:

• Why Alyssa’s choosing a “slow summer” with zero scheduled camps and what it’s teaching her kids.
• Vanessa’s decision to embrace summer structure with her son Joey and how European summer rhythms support that.
• How free play, boredom, and nature fuel creativity, confidence, and resilience in kids.
• The emotional energy of rushing, over-scheduling, and how it shows up in parenting.
• Why family time, presence, and intentional choices matter more than outside expectations.
• What it means to set your environment up for energetic success as a mom.
• How different our kids are and how that calls for different summer strategies.

Whether you're navigating a packed camp calendar or longing for a little more spaciousness, this episode invites you to listen inward and parent with presence. It’s not about what’s “right,” it’s about what’s right for you and your family this season.
