🎙️ Episode 16 – The Cost of Being Nice: How People-Pleasing Steals Your Power
A raw conversation on breaking the silence, setting boundaries, and finally choosing you

In this soul-shaking episode, Aunty Charmaine sits down with Whitney Mulling for a truth-filled journey into the silent struggle of people-pleasing. Behind every forced smile and unspoken “no” lies a story of self-abandonment—and we’re pulling the curtain all the way back.

This isn't just another talk about boundaries. This is a call to arms for every SoulTriber who’s ever lost themselves in the name of being “nice.” Whitney shares her personal path of reclaiming power, healing emotional wounds, and confronting the conditioning that taught us to shrink so others could shine.

Expect to dive into:
✨ The emotional and spiritual cost of chronic people-pleasing
✨ What happens when you break generational silence and speak your truth
✨ How to build boundaries that don’t need explanations
✨ The liberation in finally choosing YOU—first, fully, and without guilt

This conversation is raw, sacred, and necessary. If you've ever felt the pressure to make everyone else comfortable at the expense of your own peace, this episode is your mirror, your medicine, and your moment.

It’s time to stop betraying your spirit just to belong.
Let’s talk about it.

When the world feels like it's shifting beneath your feet — politically, spiritually, emotionally — where do you root yourself? In this raw and riveting episode, Aunty Charmaine is joined by three powerful voices in the Soul Tribe: Bliss with Brit, Sage with Mage, and the ever-wise Shalita Sheree. Together, we dive into a soul-deep conversation about what it really means to ground yourself when everything around you feels unsafe, uncertain, and out of control.

This isn’t just a feel-good chat — it’s a call back to your center, a remembrance of your ancestral wisdom, and a soulful map for finding peace in chaos. We explore:

• How to hold on to your spiritual practices when life is crumbling
• The real reason many of us feel lost right now — and how to reclaim your grounding
• Personal rituals, daily tools, and mindset shifts that keep us rooted
• How culture, tradition, and community can become your safe space
• The importance of creating soul-safe spaces and boundaries in a chaotic world

Each guest brings raw honesty, spiritual truth, and grounded wisdom from their own lived experiences. If your spirit has been crying out for a reminder that you’re not alone, that you’re held, and that you can still find peace in the midst of it all — this episode is for you.

So take your shoes off, come back to the earth, and tune in.
This is the conversation your nervous system has been praying for.

Thank you for being part of the Soul Tribe family. Remember, if you can see the vision, it’s already yours—now it’s time to live it!

SoulTribe, in this deeply moving episode, I sit down with the radiant and raw-hearted Sarah Gray—a woman walking the powerful path from public persona to soul purpose. Together, we peel back the layers of what it really means to transition—not just careers, but identities, callings, and the truths we’ve buried under survival and performance.

We talk about the fear that sneaks in during stillness. That tight grip of the unknown. The voice in your head that whispers you’re not ready—even when your soul is already halfway through the door. Sarah shares her own transformation from a successful online persona to a woman seeking healing, authenticity, and spiritual service.

This episode is for you if you’ve been standing at the edge of change, frozen by what might happen if you leap. If you’ve felt stuck in a version of yourself that no longer fits. If the path ahead is clear, but fear is louder than your faith.

We’re not just talking about transitions. We’re talking about the courage to release control... the grace of uncertainty... and how sometimes the breakdown is the divine setup for breakthrough.

You don’t want to miss this soul-to-soul conversation. Let it remind you: You are not alone in the wilderness between who you were and who you’re becoming. We are walking it with you.

Come sit with us. Listen in. Then take one step forward—just one. That’s how healing begins.

Soultribe, this episode is for the healers, the givers, the over-extenders—the ones who keep showing up for everyone else while their own spirit quietly fades into the background. In Episode 12: Dealing with Spiritual Burnout, Aunty Charmaine speaks directly to the heart of what so many of us are experiencing but rarely have the space to name.

This is not just about being tired. It’s about that deep soul-weariness that settles in when you’ve been moving on empty, carrying more than your share, and pushing forward when your spirit is asking you to pause.

With warmth and straight talk, Aunty Charmaine unpacks the truth behind spiritual burnout and offers guidance on how to begin recharging—not just physically, but spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. She shares rituals, mindset shifts, and ancestral practices that invite you back into alignment with joy, peace, and divine purpose.

In this episode, we explore:

• How to recognize the subtle signs of spiritual burnout
  
  
• Why emotional depletion often goes unspoken in spiritual spaces
  
  
• Steps to reconnect with your inner joy and sense of purpose
  
  
• Grounded practices to help you rest, release, and reset

This is your reminder that your joy is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. Your healing is not a delay—it’s divine timing. And you are not alone in this journey. Aunty Charmaine is here to walk beside you, with truth, tenderness, and tools for the road ahead.

Tune in and let this be your moment to reclaim your light.

In this heart-centered episode, Aunty Charmaine invites us to reflect on what “home” truly means—beyond walls, zip codes, and political borders. With the world shifting in so many uncertain ways, it’s more important than ever to anchor into the peace that lives within you.

When the external world feels unstable, we’re reminded that true stability begins in the soul. You don’t have to attach your peace to things you cannot control. You can build your sanctuary within—rooted in spirit, community, and self-trust.

Join Aunty Charmaine as she shares sacred wisdom on creating a sense of home wherever you are, and how to reclaim your power from systems that were never built for your peace. Because sometimes, the strongest shelter is your neighbor’s kindness, your own resilience, and the stillness you carry inside.

🌿 Come sit with us, breathe deeply, and remember: You are your own home. 🌿

Stepping Into The New Me With Grace & Ease
Presented by Aunty Charmaine

Beloved Soultribe,
In this powerful and tender episode, we journey through the sacred act
of release. It’s time to unclench our grip on the habits,
relationships, thought patterns, and versions of ourselves that no
longer align with who we are becoming. Aunty Charmaine guides us
through a spiritual detox—inviting you to embrace change with courage,
grace, and deep inner trust.

Letting go isn't about loss—it's about liberation. It's the soul’s way
of making space for growth, healing, and divine alignment. Whether
you're standing at the edge of a new beginning or in the thick of a
transition, this episode offers real-talk wisdom and heart-centered
practices to help you walk forward lighter and more empowered.
In this episode, we explore:

How to recognize when it’s time to release

Honoring endings as sacred beginnings

Moving through grief and guilt without shame

Cultivating peace, clarity, and self-love in the process

Embodying the new you with divine confidence

This is your call to shed the old skin and rise into your next
chapter. The ancestors are with us. Spirit is guiding. And your new
path is waiting.

Let go. Breathe deep. You are being reborn.
