Ep 15: How to NOT Self-Abandon + Live an Authentic Life
This is a solo episode on self-abandonment: what it is, where it comes from, how it shows up, and how to compassionately combat it to start living a more authentic life. This episode is for the people who tend to forgo their needs, have a fear of expressing their truth, and are trying to learn who they really are (either inside or outside of relationship). Enjoy!
Ep 14: Anger, Sacred Rage + The Nervous System in our Search for Belonging

Ep 12: Choosing Yourself
A 15 minute solo episode with your host, Kyra White (she/her) with a dropped in message around the wound of not being chosen, what it is to choose yourself, and how and why that can feel so hard/scary/overwhelming. 90-95% of our actions are derived from our subconscious; what does that mean for our relationships? How does that influence how we relate to others? How we communicate? How we handle conflict? I dive into this and more with a practical metaphor about a car. I hope you enjoy!

Ep 11: Unlocking Fear + Anchoring in Desire with Human Design Expert Crystal Mcintyre
Crystal Mcintyre (she/her) is a Human Design expert, Artist and Mentor and she stands for the permission for us to be the most authentic version of ourselves, to take up space, and be unapologetic in our desire. Human Design shows you the energetics of your soul. From the gifts you naturally possess, to the challenges you’re here to face, to they way you’re designed to make decisions, to the energetics of the purpose you're here to live into. Her expertise runs deep and in this episode we give a quick run down of what human design is and a brief overview of each type. Most specifically though, we dive into the fear gates and Crystals created archetypes that help us understand these fears, integrate what they need and step into the path of desire and alignment with our truth.
