  • Episode 678: The Art of Receiving
    May 28 2025
    This episode was inspired by a question I brought into a recent ketamine therapy session: “What do I need to know to feel fully able to receive, to feel safe to do so?” What unfolded sparked a powerful exploration into the art of receiving. I’m breaking down what receiving really looks like (it’s not always graceful), why it’s so often tied to control and worthiness, and how you can begin to gently examine your own patterns. If you’re ready to reflect more deeply on your relationship with love, money, and support, this solo episode offers insight and questions to guide that process. You’ll also hear me read straight from my journal and revisit two childhood moments that shaped my beliefs about being “too much” and what happens when people can’t meet you where you are. These stories opened the door to deeper understanding; not just about my past, but about how those early experiences still impact my ability to receive today. What you’ll hear about in this episode: Receiving love or money can activate old nervous system patterns like fear, unworthiness, and the need to prove your self-sufficiency How early wounds of being “too much” can create deep shame and mistrust The messy, emotional “potion” of receiving The devotion to receiving as a full-body surrender; trusting your emotions and your softness. “Maybe receiving isn’t something we do—it’s something we become.” Resources: Coaching Single Sessions with AndreaMy Ketamine Therapy Journey secret podcast seriesEpisode 661: Lesson 3 on The Magic of Surrender Episode 664: Lesson 5 on What's Important for a Long-term Relationship Book recommendations: I love a good personal development book, and you do too, right?

  • Episode 677: Coaching Maggie on Resentments, Indecision, and Self-Compassion
    May 21 2025
    I have a coaching session for you this week, and in these sessions, I aim to pick topics that are universal. Maggie is brave today and coming on the show with a topic many of us struggle with, resentment, self-abandonment, and the rocky road to self-compassion. I wanted to give this topic a voice because it’s incredibly common. To normalize what it looks like when women find themselves stuck in cycles of indecisiveness, resentment, guilt, and burnout. Maggie’s story is specific, but the themes? They’re everywhere. In this session, we unpack what’s getting in the way for Maggie and work together to create small, actionable steps that bring her closer to showing up for herself in meaningful ways. Her willingness to do the work on herself offers something for all of us - especially if you’ve been taught to prioritize everyone but yourself. You’ll hear us talk about: What it really looks like to explore resentments and why it matters (10:53) How self-abandonment sneaks into everything from parenting to partnership (26:19)\ Why you don’t have to forgive someone in order to heal (28:07) How indecisiveness connects to fear, self-trust, and early family dynamics (28:39) What self-compassion can look like in real time (especially when it’s new) (36:41) Resources: Coaching Single Sessions with Andrea No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model, Richard Schwartz Book recommendations: I love a good personal development book, and you do too, right?

  • Episode 676: Numbing Out And Avoiding: What It Looks Like And How To Stop
    May 14 2025
    You know what I used to call numbing out? A mini vacation. Whether it was wine at the end of the day (I’m now 13 years sober), scrolling endlessly, or just anything to avoid feeling the full weight of my emotions, it all came down to one thing: avoidance. And that’s exactly what I’m getting into in this solo episode, the real reasons we numb, what it costs us, and how to begin doing something different. This one goes beyond “just stop doing it.” I’m talking about the discomfort, the deep emotional wiring, and why it makes total sense that you’ve been avoiding hard feelings. But also, how the shift starts. (Hint: it’s not by beating yourself up.) I’m pulling straight from my book How to Stop Feeling Like Shit and breaking down specific tools to start feeling your feelings, even if you’re a beginner. What You’ll Hear: How numbing and avoiding are really about running from emotions What my therapist told me that I really didn’t want to hear (spoiler: she was right) The “holy emotions” we’re often most afraid to feel: grief, shame, terror, rage The biggest clues that you might be avoiding emotions (including the empathy test) Three key tools to start feeling your feelings: acceptance, curiosity, and self-trust The role of somatic work, breathwork, and psychedelic therapy in emotional healing You’re not broken because you’ve been numbing out. Your body’s been doing its best to keep you safe. This episode is about getting curious, not judgmental; and starting to build a new way forward, one brave feeling at a time.
