This month’s breathwork session on the Ripple Podcast is all about navigating resistance — that internal pushback we all feel when we’re on the edge of growth or change. In this episode, I guide you through a grounding breathwork practice designed to help you move with resistance instead of fighting it. Whether it shows up as procrastination, self-doubt, or overwhelm, resistance doesn’t mean something is wrong — it often means you’re expanding.  You’ll learn: What resistance really is (and how it hides in plain sight) Why it’s a normal part of personal growth How breathwork can support you in riding the “build-peak-crash” wave of discomfort A simple, yet powerful three-part breath to shift your state This session is perfect for anyone in the messy middle of change — in your career, relationships, or personal healing. Find a quiet place, press play, and let your body lead. 💛 If resistance has been keeping you stuck and you’re ready for deep, lasting change, let’s chat.

Behind the Scenes: What Really Happened at My Breathwork Retreat In this honest and heartfelt episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and telling you the real story of my first-ever breathwork retreat — the good, the messy, the magical, and everything in between. It took me three tries to record this one because it means so much to me. I’m sharing what it looked like to build this event from the ground up, while also navigating life, motherhood, and the highs and lows of running a business. You’ll hear: ✨ How the idea for the retreat came to me during a journaling practice ✨ The behind-the-scenes of planning, marketing, and launching it ✨ What went beautifully (and what didn’t!) ✨ Why breathwork is so much more than a stress-relief tool ✨ The truth about showing up when you're nervous and excited ✨ How I knew I was right where I needed to be — even when it wasn’t “perfect” Whether you’re curious about breathwork, dreaming about hosting your own event one day, or just love a good behind-the-scenes story — this one is for you. 🌿 Inspired and want to be part of the next one?

In this episode, I’m diving into a topic that comes up all the time—what to do when you feel stuck in uncertainty. If you’ve ever caught yourself saying, “I just don’t know what to do,” this one’s for you. I’m sharing some of my own experiences with feeling unclear, how I learned to stop outsourcing my decisions, and a mindset shift that’s helped me (and my clients) move forward even when things aren’t 100% clear. This is your gentle nudge to trust yourself more deeply and keep going, even when you’re in the messy middle. In this episode, we’re talking about the foggy middle: the space between knowing something needs to change and actually doing something about it. You’ll hear: Why “I don’t know” is often code for I’m afraid to say it out loud A personal story of what happened when I walked away from something misaligned Why clarity isn’t found—it’s remembered And the exact framework I use with private clients to help them move, even when the path isn’t clear ✨ Plus, if you’re tired of spinning and ready to move from inner truth, don’t miss my free 4-part audio series: “But What If You Did Know?”  1️⃣ JOIN SOFT POWER - A high-touch coaching program where to ditch self doubt and build genuine self confidence to reach your next level 2️⃣ "Ask Chels" Have a question or a stuck point you'd love to get my perspective on?
