In this special "Energy Upgrade" episode, I introduce a powerful, timely practice designed to help listeners shift their energy, elevate their vibration, and gain clarity and focus for the week ahead. Tapping into the collective energy and current astrological events—including the New Moon in Leo and the opening of the Lion's Gate portal to use this potent window for manifestation and transformation. I share insights about clearing old stories and boldly claiming a new narrative for this new timeline, especially for women seeking to lead and create with intention. Integrate wisdom from The Nine Archetypes of Feminine Leadership, focusing on the medicine of The Change-Maker, not to settle but to courageously step into your desires. I invite everyone to join me for upcoming breathwork and energy clearing events inside the Feminine Leadership Lounge, and I announce a deep-dive feminine healing retreat on September 19th to help women heal, clear, and empower their leadership in these shifting times. This episode is both an energetic reset and a call to intentional action for those looking to create a more beautiful, aligned world.
