What happens when trying to fix, control, or protect the people we love stops working — and love becomes the only thing left?

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, Anna welcomes Eric Smith back for a deeply honest conversation about family, fear, healing, parenting, and what can happen when we stop trying to force life into what we think it should look like.

Eric shares about the painful journey his family moved through, the fear he carried for his children, and the moment he began to stop fixing and start loving. Together, Anna and Eric explore what it means to see another person without our filters, to trust love more than fear, and to allow connection to become more important than being right.

This is a tender conversation for parents, families, and anyone who has ever struggled to love someone while also wanting to save them. The heart of the episode is Eric’s shift from trying to change the situation to choosing love, acceptance, and connection.

What happens when we stop moving at the pace of pressure, conditioning, and “should”… and begin moving at the pace of our own nature?

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, Anna welcomes Julie Stuart back to the podcast for a gentle and deeply honest conversation about stillness, nervous system awareness, somatic healing, relationships, identity, and what it means to trust life as it unfolds.

Julie shares how slowing down has changed the way she listens to herself, meets constriction, and notices what is asking to open. Together, Anna and Julie explore the difference between forcing life from fear and allowing the next step to emerge from presence, spaciousness, and inner aliveness.

This conversation touches on craniosacral work, emotional imprints, the wisdom of the body, the courage to let go of old identities, and the quiet power of asking: what would bring me most alive?

What does it mean to be deeply seen by another human being?

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, Anna welcomes Guy Sengstock, creator of The Circling® Institute, for a profound conversation about presence, relationship, wonder, and the human longing to be truly met.

Together, Anna and Guy explore what happens when we slow down enough to receive another person as they are. They speak about the ache of being seen, the mystery of real conversation, the way relationships shape who we become, and why the capacity for wonder may be one of the most important antidotes to disconnection.

Guy also shares the deeper intention behind Circling® — not simply as a method, but as a relational practice that helps people listen, notice, and become more present with themselves and one another.

What if your emotional state is not just something you feel — but something you embody, practice, and create from?

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, Anna sits down with Dr. Colette Sinclair, author of Emotional Posture, for a conversation about gratitude, forgiveness, love, embodiment, healing, and the emotional states that shape how we move through life.

Colette shares how emotional posture can become a powerful doorway into transformation — not as an idea to think about, but as a lived experience in the body. Together, Anna and Colette explore the difference between thinking we are grateful and actually embodying gratitude, why love is a creative force, and how relaxation, awareness, and emotional alignment can change the way we create our lives.

Some moments feel unfiltered. Not better. Not worse. Just… real.

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, I’m joined by Eric Smith for a conversation about the “filters” that shape our experience—and the rare moments when those filters soften and we catch a glimpse of what’s underneath.

We explore:

• How sensory input gets filtered through identity, history, and thought
• Why experience feels personal—and what that prevents us from seeing
• “We’re all in the same boat,” and the compassion that comes with seeing that
• What surrender points to—beyond what the intellect can do
• Those wordless moments (like flow states) where time stops and presence takes over

Some change is obvious. And some change is the quiet work no one sees.

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, I’m joined by Tammi Salas for a conversation about emotional sobriety—not just “not drinking,” but learning how to be with your emotions without acting out of them, and becoming the adult in the room with your own inner life.

We explore: - What emotional sobriety actually means (beyond not drinking) - How “tone” can reveal what’s really happening inside us - Making art as a daily practice—and what it opened up - The desire to make life more beautiful, and the clarity it takes to do that - “Womanifestation,” and what it means to embody the next chapter intentionally

Some things don’t need more pushing. They need more listening.

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, I’m joined by Shellee Rae for a grounded conversation about learning to listen in—so you can recognize what’s true for you, trust timing, and stop moving from other people’s expectations.

We explore:

• What it means to “listen in” (and how you know you’re actually doing it)
• The difference between forcing something and feeling a clear yes
• Why timing matters—and how it can become unmistakable
• How truth feels in the body when you stop negotiating with it
• The relief of choosing what’s aligned instead of what’s expected

Money is one of the most charged places in human life. And it can also be one of the most revealing.

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, I’m joined by Sarah McCrum for a conversation about money—not as a problem to solve, but as a teacher… and as an expression of love.

Sarah is also the author of Love Money, Money Loves You, and we explore what it means to relate to money from love instead of fear.

We explore:

• What it means to relate to money as love (not fear)
• How money mirrors our inner relationship with worth, safety, and trust
• Why “enough” is rarely about numbers
• The emotional patterns money brings to the surface
• What can shift when we stop making money the enemy
