The Journey Toward Balance: How to Keep the Magic in Everyday Life
No matter how much we wish it to be so, balance is not something we arrive at one day and remain there forever. Finding balance is a daily practice. In today’s episode, Rachel shares her eternal struggle for balance when it comes to sleep, her diet, and taking care of herself in general. How can we choose the most grounding, loving thing for ourselves? And on the other side of the spectrum, how can we not indulge so much that we take the magic out of those special treats?
This episode will help you recognize what you need more of, what you need less of, and how to tune into your nervous system and ground before succumbing to that old story that maybe you just aren’t disciplined enough. A little support can go a long way. Tune in to find it.

If This Is Not Meant to Be, Give Me a Sign
Today’s episode begins with Rachel talking a little bit about their family vacation to Tenerife. It was a nourishing time spent doing nothing but reading and lounging on the beach. And sometimes that is exactly what you need in a vacation.
As Rachel goes down memory lane, she starts telling the story of how she fell in love with her husband 15 years ago in Aruba. Their origin story is one for the books! It has it all, from chance encounters to moving abroad on a whim. And here they are all these years later, still more in love than ever. Tune in for an episode that will make you believe in fate, fighting for what you love, and the beauty of coming out on the other side.

Let Go and Let God - Navigating Fear, Death, and the Uncertainty of Parenthood
Today’s episode is a tender one that was difficult to record. Rachel opens up about her fear of death. She discusses how this fear has shaped her throughout her life, from her childhood when it was formed, through motherhood, up until this very moment. And after a traumatic experience in her home and losing her entire flock of chickens - it seems death has been surrounding her a lot lately.
But there is a truth that exists: there is no life without death. How can we navigate the uncertainty of life and still let go enough to enjoy it? How do we know when to listen to our intuition and act versus when to accept that we have no real control? Tune in for an episode that will break your heart open and remind you that while everyone dies - not everyone truly lives.

Marriage, Barriers, and Dismantling The Wall Around Your Heart
In today’s episode, Rachel opens up about a big, beautiful expansion happening in her marriage right now. For the first time in a long time, Rachel is able to lean more into her feminine side. Her husband has been taking the lead, and she has actually been able to accept letting go of control. How did these changes come about? It wasn’t from nagging or expecting someone else to become a new person - it was from recognizing barriers Rachel had put up over her own heart.
Whenever we are struggling with something, we are quick to jump to external factors as the cause. But maybe we can’t rely on everyone else to change, and instead we have to recognize our own patterns in keeping people out. Tune in for a big episode of storytelling and finding change the only way it’s possible - through love.
