Most of us were never taught how to feel.

We were told things like:
“Stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about.”
“You’re fine.”
“Don’t be so sensitive.”

So we learned to stuff down our emotions, loop through the stories in our minds, and disconnect from our bodies. The result? Explosions, shutdowns, or even dis-ease from years of suppressing what was never meant to be held inside.

But here’s the truth: in order to feel better, we have to become better feelers.

In this short and powerful episode, I share:

• Why it often doesn’t feel safe to express emotions
• The difference between feeling and bypassing (no fake positivity here)
• Simple somatic tools — breath, sound, and movement — to help emotions flow
• How to find your “edge” so you stay safe without overwhelming your system
• Why feeling isn’t weakness, but strength — the pathway back home to yourself

✨ You don’t have to fix the feeling. You just have to feel it.

This week, I’m going raw and unfiltered.

I’ve been deep in the work of remembering — the kind that has nothing to do with your mind and everything to do with your body.

Because here’s the truth: you can’t think your way home. You have to feel your way there.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

• Why we forget who we are (and how life, trauma, and conditioning pull us away)
• What “remembering” actually feels like in the body
• How breathwork helps you bypass the mind and meet the truth waiting inside you
• Why bypassing isn’t healing — and what to do instead

This isn’t a fluffy “just breathe” conversation. It’s a call to reclaim the parts of you that have been silenced, shut down, or shoved into the background.

And if you’re ready to take this from conversation to embodiment, my Breath of Renewal Monthly Circle is happening this Sunday, August 17th @ 3:00 PM ET.

This is your invitation to gather with women from all walks of life, breathe as one, release what’s been heavy, and remember who you are.

Your body already knows you’re ready. Let’s remember together.

Heartbreak hurts—but it can also be the doorway to something beautiful.

In this episode of Loving Your Life Again, I’m joined Diane Beck, who is an Intuitive Alignment Coach and creator of Soul Signal Mapping™, the core method behind her transformational program Healing Heartbreaks. She helps high-functioning women heal the emotional root of their pain, reconnect with unconscious wisdom, and realign their lives from the inside out - so they can feel whole, powerful, and fully themselves.

Her work isn’t only about mindset or a surface-level coaching. She guides women through heartbreak as a portal and a way in to true transformation - using the nervous system and unconscious signals as a map back to deep clarity and intuition, self-trust, and feminine leadership. The result? Strong feminine women who attract aligned relationships, lead with wisdom, and become the matriarchs of the next generation - not from performance, but from truth.

At the heart of her work is a simple truth:
If you don’t transmute your pain, you transmit it.
Now is the time to come home to who you really are.

We talk about:

• How heartbreak reveals deeper patterns in love and self-worth
• Why we cling to what’s familiar (even when it hurts)
• How to use pain as a catalyst for transformation and self-love

If you’re ready to release old wounds and rediscover your power, this episode is for you.

Have you ever felt like you were holding someone else’s frustration and calling it your own?

In this week’s episode, I’m peeling back the layers on something I’ve been deeply feeling this season: frustration.

Not just the everyday kind, but the deeper kind—the frustration that comes from misalignment, unspoken boundaries, old trauma responses, and nervous system patterns that we didn’t choose… but that are still running the show.

We explore:

• How frustration is often a symptom of misalignment (not failure)
• Why it’s not just a mindset issue—and how our bodies remember what our minds dismiss
• What it means to take radical responsibility without taking on someone else’s emotional labor
• The connection between codependency, self-abandonment, and emotional confusion
• How money becomes a mirror for our patterns—and what it’s trying to show us

This episode is an invitation to slow down, check in with your body, and gently begin to discern what’s truly yours to carry.

Key Takeaways:

• Frustration is often a sign you’ve compromised your truth for someone else’s comfort.
• Picking up someone else’s emotion—especially their frustration—is a form of energetic enmeshment.
• Radical responsibility is not about blame—it’s about reclaiming your power.
• Your nervous system holds wisdom your mind hasn’t yet made sense of.
• Somatic healing begins when we stop intellectualizing and start listening to the body.

Journal Prompts:

• Where am I currently feeling frustrated—and is it actually mine?
• What part of me am I abandoning in order to avoid conflict?
• When I think about money (or a current struggle), what is my body trying to tell me?
• What would it look like to take radical responsibility without self-blame?

The Gentle Path to Transformation: Embracing Softness in Healing

In this episode of 'Loving Your Life Again,' host Christina, a trauma-informed coach and breathwork facilitator, discusses the misconception that transformation and healing must be intense and painful.

Christina explores how over-efforting and spiritual bypassing can be counterproductive and highlights the importance of integrating mind and body through practices like breathwork and somatic coaching.

In this heart-to-heart episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on where I’ve been, what’s been shifting behind the scenes, and why this pause was necessary.

From navigating a big move and deep emotional triggers… to stepping fully into the depths of my Somatic Coaching Certification, this season has invited me to pause, listen, and transform.

I share what it really means to embody the work—not just learn it—and why nervous system regulation is now the anchor for everything I offer.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or just in the thick of transition, this episode is for you.
You’ll also hear two beautiful ways to connect with me right now—one is completely free.
