What if the greatest weight you’re carrying isn’t on your body… but in your heart? And what if kindness—not control—is the key to releasing both?

In today’s deeply moving episode, Erica Glessing welcomes her longtime friend, author, and radiant light-being Betsy McLoughlin—a woman who transformed her life by transforming her relationship with her own body. This conversation is raw, real, inspirational, and overflowing with tools every conscious woman will feel right in her soul.

Betsy once weighed 500 pounds. Today, she’s a vibrant, energetic size 10 to 2 who walks through life with ease, gratitude, and joy. But this isn’t a diet story. This is a story about inner transformation, mind-body connection, and the moment when your body starts whispering… then nudging… then finally shouting for you to listen.

If you’ve ever struggled with weight, self-worth, self-judgment, emotional eating, healing trauma, or simply putting everyone else first, Betsy’s journey will speak to you. She shares how years of “force, control, and deprivation”—the classic diet loop—kept her stuck. And how learning to listen to her body, instead of fighting it, became the turning point that changed everything.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover:

✨ The one shift that helped her stop self-sabotage and start self-connection ✨ Why your body never judges you—even when you’re judging it ✨ How pain, stiffness, and exhaustion can actually be your body calling for partnership ✨ What happens when you treat your body like a co-creator instead of an inconvenience ✨ Why replacing judgment with kindness and gratitude can melt emotional and physical weight ✨ A simple, life-changing tool involving a jar, tiny papers, and the power of daily self-love

This episode is especially powerful for conscious women navigating midlife transformation, emotional healing, spiritual awakening, and the desire to reconnect with their bodies from a place of compassion instead of criticism.

By the end, you may find yourself looking at your own body—and your own life—with softer eyes and a more open heart.

Featured Tool: Betsy shares a grounding gratitude practice to rewire self-judgment into appreciation, connection, and deep emotional wellness.

What a lovely insight into the life of a galactic astrologer - Myriam Wiedemann joins me from Europe where she reads the stars and receives messages about starseeds. She and Erica connect on this magic realm and the conversation is delicious!

In this episode, I’m joined by Myriam Wiedemann, a galactic astrologer based in Berlin, Germany, who brings a powerful and inspiring perspective to the cosmos and our place within it. If you’ve ever looked up at the stars and felt a sense of longing, connection, or curiosity—this conversation is for you.

Galactic astrology is more than traditional planetary alignments. Myriam takes us beyond the solar system into the heart (vast realms) of the Milky Way, interpreting the influence of fixed stars and ancient star systems on our soul’s journey. She explains how these cosmic patterns can reveal our origins, gifts, and galactic connections—often validating deep inner truths we've sensed but couldn’t explain.

During the episode, Myriam shares her own discovery of being a starseed connected to Alpha Centauri, a system known for its visionary scientists, spiritual leaders, and planetary guides. We also talk about Spica, the rare starseed origin some souls carry, including a surprising moment where I share my own experience of discovering my Spican lineage—and how deeply it resonated.
