Have you ever said yes to something that made sense logically — only to feel resentment, exhaustion, or frustration hit later?

In this episode, Christina explores the hidden cost of saying yes when your body is asking for no, and how learning to listen to your nervous system restores choice, self-trust, and personal power.

Through two real-life stories — one rooted in overgiving at work and another in staying present through emotional activation in relationship — Christina shares how awareness, breath, and embodiment create space for different choices, even when old patterns resurface.

This conversation is for the woman who:

• has done a lot of inner work but still overgives sometimes
• struggles to rest without guilt
• feels activated when trying to say no
• wants to trust her body instead of overriding it
• is healing people-pleasing and survival patterns

Rather than pushing for perfection, this episode offers a compassionate reminder:
healing doesn’t mean you never overgive again — it means you notice sooner.

In this episode, you’ll explore:

• why overgiving is often a nervous system response, not a mindset issue
• how self-trust is rebuilt through awareness and breath
• the difference between suppression and regulation
• why feelings aren’t the problem — avoiding them is
• how choice, voice, and embodiment restore safety
• what it looks like to stay present during emotional activation

As we close out the year, many of us feel the pull to push harder, do more, and prepare for what’s next. But what if the most powerful thing you could do right now… is pause?

In this episode of Loving Your Life Again, Christina shares an honest reflection on what happens when healing and personal growth become too serious — and how the body gently calls us back to joy.

Drawing from her own experience completing a major season of work, Christina explores how easy it is to slip into productivity mode and quietly abandon self-care without realizing it. Through breathwork and somatic awareness, she reconnects with the truth that release doesn’t require understanding — the body already knows how to let go.

This episode is especially timely as we move through the final New Moon of the year in Sagittarius, a moment that invites big-picture reflection, truth-telling, and intention setting for the year ahead. Energetically, we’re also closing a cycle of deep shedding and preparing to step into a season of forward momentum — making it essential to release what no longer belongs before moving ahead.

Rather than forcing clarity or breakthroughs, Christina reminds us that joy, safety, and presence are practices — not rewards we earn later.

If you’ve been feeling tired, serious, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode, this episode offers a gentle reframe and an embodied invitation to come back home to yourself.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

• Why we often lose joy while “doing the work”
• How productivity can quietly override self-care
• Why breathwork and somatic practices don’t require knowing what you’re releasing
• The power of letting go without forcing an outcome
• How joy and play help regulate the nervous system
• Why this New Moon is a potent time for release and intention
• How to prepare for momentum without burning out

This episode is all about the Law of Opposites and how the universe uses contrast to help you choose your next level.

In this raw, honest, deeply human episode, Christina shares a real-time story about traveling that started out smooth, effortless, and magical… until the trip home. What unfolded became a powerful lesson in trust, nervous system regulation, and choosing alignment even when everything goes sideways.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

✨ What the Law of Opposites actually is
— and why it shows up every time you’re expanding, manifesting, or stepping into a new chapter.

✨ How the universe uses challenges to calibrate your next level
— not to punish you, but to help you consciously choose who you want to be.

✨ A real-life story of divine timing
— including a tight layover, a potential missed flight, and a “just-in-time” miracle that revealed exactly how supported you truly are.

✨ How old trauma patterns get activated in moments of stress
— and how to regulate your nervous system so you don’t collapse back into fear, panic, or overthinking.

✨ What it means to trust the unseen
— even when your mind wants to spiral or assume the worst.

✨ A gentle reminder:
Your reaction in the moment of contrast is your declaration to the universe about what you truly want.

This episode is for women healing from survival mode, recovering from toxic relationships, navigating emotional triggers, and learning how to trust themselves — and God — again.
You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how to stay grounded, centered, and connected to your highest self even when life throws you the exact opposite of what you asked for.
