Are you feeling exhausted from other people’s energy lately? Are you taking care of everyone else but have little left to take care of yourself? Please join Samantha and Denise as they explore the concept of empathy burnout, a state of emotional, mental, and physical depletion often experienced by empaths. Many of the signs and symptoms of burnout often mimic depression and anxiety which leads to the importance of self-care, and the need for strong boundaries. Learning to recognize your limits, seeking help, and utilizing metaphysical tools for healing are all ways to counteract feeling empathically wiped out.

In this week’s episode, Denise and Samantha discuss ways to determine if you are the recipient of gaslighting. This can happen with family, friends, intimate relationships but also through the social media and the news. Gaslighting makes you second guess yourself. It erodes your ability to trust your own inner knowing. Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse that slowly but surely chips away at your inner sanctity leaving you feeling unmoored and filled with doubts. It often leaves people feeling confused and doubting their own beliefs and decision-making capabilities due to the eroding feeding of false information.

Please join Samantha and Denise as they explore Alan Watts’ concept of the Backwards Law, which suggests that the more we strive for security and control, the more we may feel insecure and out of sync with our natural state. Watts states that acceptance of our insecurities and negative emotions can lead to greater peace and authenticity, especially for empaths who often feel the weight of others’ emotions. The emphasis on the importance of self-compassion, the fluid nature of reality, and the need to integrate these insights into daily life for personal growth and emotional well-being are all concepts that support this theory of a backwards law. Some aspects of integrating this law include: exploring the importance of embracing emotions, practicing self-compassion, and setting healthy boundaries all which foster acceptance and trust in the process of life. We hope you find this helpful!

In honor of spooky season, join us as we discuss the history, use and some scary stories associated with Ouija Boards! The Ouija board, also known as a “spirit board” or “talking board,” is a device originally introduced as a parlor game in the late 19th century but it has evolved into a cultural phenomenon associated with spiritualism, the occult, and supernatural encounters. Some people have a deep fear of using the Ouija board as they see it as an avenue to opening up to negative energies and malevolent spirits. Others see it as just another divination tool to try to connect with loved ones in Spirit. As with any tool or technique we use to gain more insight, setting a clear intention and asking for only the highest and best to come through is a good rule of practice.

Have you ever felt such a strong attraction to someone and felt that you’ve known them forever even though you just met? In this episode, we are discussing karmic relationships, the spiritual connections formed as part of our soul’s journey toward growth and the resolution of past karmic debts. Karmic relationships were orchestrated in your soul plan so that you and this person could heal karma from past lives OR use your connection to teach one another important life lessons for growth and healing. The concept of karma, deeply embedded in Eastern philosophies like Hinduism and Buddhism, refers to the law of cause and effect, suggesting that our thoughts, actions, and intentions in one life have consequences that may carry over into future lives. In the context of relationships, karma is seen as a spiritual agreement between souls to come together again in a new life to resolve unresolved emotions or patterns. This is often why karmic relationships are marked by intense emotional reactions, both positive and negative, and why they can feel like a deep, unexplainable connection even if they are unhealthy or toxic.

Is it you?  Are you the one who came to break the cycles and release the generational trauma?  Have you ever looked at your family of origin and questioned how or why you would have chosen those dynamics and lessons?   Please join Samantha and Denise as they discuss various ways to use a study of genealogy, mediumship and ancestral healing to help you break those cycles by honoring your loved ones in Spirit but also yourself. Before we can even attempt to release generational trauma and do the healing work that impacts past generations as well as future, we need to acknowledge and get to know our ancestors.

For many empaths, self-love may not come easily but it also may feel confusing as to what it actually means to practice self-love. Is it somehow selfish or self-serving? Does it mean taking away from others if we focus on loving ourselves? Please join us as we talk about what self-love really means and how to start a daily practice in your own life! Self-love is the deepest form of self-acceptance; treating yourself with the same kindness, respect and understanding usually reserved for others. If you find yourself to be highly self-critical, are a people pleaser, or struggle with never feeling like what you do is good enough, learning self-love is a beautiful place to start to heal, set appropriate boundaries and create healthier relationships.

In last week’s episode, we talked about how to embrace success without feeling guilty.  Today we’re going to take it to the next level and discuss how feeling worthy is the foundation for not only success but also for being able to live the life we truly came here to experience. Much of this episode is based on the NY Times Bestseller by Jamie Kern Lima:  Worthy:  How to Believe You are Enough and Transform Your Life.   In her book, Lima states: “Self-doubt, unworthiness, and fear cause us to dim our soul’s light. And start playing it safe. Holding back. Hiding. Speaking only part of our truth. Living only half of our life. Expressing only part of our soul’s true essence. Craving the perception of belonging over authentic connection. Craving validation and significance in a way that’s defined externally Because we start to believe that these are the only paths to love, to belonging , to worthiness.” Please join Samantha and Denise as they discuss how to embrace worthiness in your own life!

Remember the trendy book about identifying your love language? Just as people have diverse communication styles and ways to profess their love for someone, we also exhibit distinct responses to stress, which can be termed as our “stress language.” This includes how you perceive, interpret, and respond to stressors and comprises emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and physiological components which all reflect your unique coping mechanisms and vulnerabilities. As empaths, many of us are very susceptible to stress, sometimes ours and sometimes that which we pick up from others and the environment. Through self-awareness, reflection, and targeted interventions, individuals can cultivate resilience and navigate life’s challenges with greater ease and adaptability. Embracing one’s stress language empowers individuals to not only cope with stress but also thrive amidst adversity, fostering holistic well-being and personal growth. According to Chantel Donnelly, therapist and stress researcher, there are 5 stress languages: * The Imploder: This is a “freeze” response to a stressful situation. The imploder may feel hopeless, helpless and paralyzed. * The Exploder: This is a “fight or flight” response to a stressful situation. This person may have an inflated reaction to a stressful situation; they might get irritable, frustrated or angry, or even leave a situation that they can’t handle. * The Fixer: This reaction is typically how women express a stress response. This can look like appeasement, people pleasing, overstepping boundaries and even “mothering” people who aren’t your kids. * The Number: As in, a person who numbs themself to the outside world when things aren’t going well. This person usually uses escapism ― such as drugs, alcohol, online gaming, overworking or overexercising ― as a coping mechanism for stress. * The Denier: This is someone who possesses toxic positivity in response to stress and can be overly optimistic to avoid reality. As always thank you for being part of our community of listeners and we hope you have a low stress week!

In our last episode, we explored how to manifest what you really want to bring into your life. Now we’re going to take it a step further and talk about how to break it down into actionable steps to ensure success! Starting small can feel futile at times when the overall goal or hope is to manifest something of greater significance. Once you identify what you really want and why you want it, you can start to take those small steps which builds confidence and momentum towards the end result.
