Ep 149. Have you ever met someone and instantly felt in their energy a sense that they were meant to be in your life? Sometimes, we experience this inner knowing not just with people, but with certain places, career paths, or experiences that feel undeniably aligned. What is this intuitive sense, and how can we learn to recognize and become in conversation with it? In this episode, Christine Lang, medical intuitive and author, explains how our spirit communicates through the body. She breaks down the differences between messages from the ego mind vs. from the spirit, and why we are naturally drawn toward our spirit's truth even when it's uncomfortable or inconvenient. Christine shares her own transition from attorney to medical intuitive, revealing how chronic symptoms can be messages, and how she developed her gift to identify the physical markers of energetic misalignment. This is one of those episodes that honestly only feels possible because of the amazing community here, allowing us to continue to question, evolve, and explore so many facets of this human experience.    HERE'S THE JUICE: How physical symptoms can be expressions of unspoken truths and emotional silencing Christine's personal journey, going from attorney to spiritual healer, and how her body signaled misalignment in her career, leading her to her current practice   What is clairaudience?  Learning the difference between your ego voice and the spirit voice  Breaking down why the ego thrives on a lack of awareness and how to become the observer in your own life Do our souls choose certain experiences for purposes of soul growth?

Ep 148. Have you ever felt that you have completely lost your identity inside a relationship? Or ever struggled with identifying your feelings until another person either helps you… or prevents you from having to metabolize those feelings altogether? This episode has been a long time in the making. What is codependency really, and how does it tie into the deep shame that women so often feel in so many parts of our lives— our productivity, our bodies, our relationships? Why does it feel so deeply woven into our lineage + society, and the ways in which we were taught to love and be loved? Vanessa Bennett, relationship therapist and author of The Motherhood Myth, is breaking down the science behind codependency, why romantic relationships are one of the only socially sanctioned addictions in our culture, and tangible tools to address dysfunctional attachment when it does appear. We are diving into what codependency looks like in real, day-to-day relationships, and why we tend to  show up differently with different people. She breaks down why both men and women carry a deep "choose me" wound, and how this can evolve into codependency if not questioned. Thank you all so much for listening, and Happy New Year! HERE'S THE JUICE:   Why shame and the fear of abandonment are often the two throughlines that exist in everybody who struggles with codependency  Vanessa takes a deep dive into the science of codependency and what it often looks like day-to-day in romantic relationships  Why is it so important to identify if the system we are operating in is coming from a place of lack vs. enhancement  The truth about why we show up differently in different relationships and why attachment styles are often a spectrum with different people, as opposed to a finite label  The history behind why both men and women often have a "choose me" wound  How values have changed in the last 100 years and why our lineage often plays into how we experience attachment, highlighting how attachment for women has gone from a place of need to a place of want ONLY in the last 50 years  Connect with Olivia: MY MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW ⭐️❤️🥲 Listen to Another Lover Listen to Love Sounds  Follow me on Spotify (O.LIVIA)   Watch the full episode: What's The Juice YouTube Channel  Olivia's herbal remedies: HERE Shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more at www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia's personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia's blog posts   Connect with Vanessa: Follow On Instagram The Motherhood Myth Website  Cheaper Than Therapy    Connect with What's The Juice: Follow What's The Juice  Email us: [email protected]  

Ep 147. Have you ever wondered if pain, shame, or anger is showing up in your life because it's the key to something deeper? What does it actually mean to be an intuitive healer? And how do we learn to hear what our own pain has been trying to tell us our entire lives? This week, Manuela Welton, an energy healer who has spent nearly two decades helping individuals, companies, and even governments understand themselves on a deeper energetic level, is breaking down loss, fear, and judgment from an energy perspective. From her gifts being discovered as a four-year-old child to experiencing devastating loss that shaped her childhood, she shares how the death of her parents became one of her greatest initiations into her path. If you've ever felt like you just need an energetic clean slate and to validate or move stuck energy that has stayed with you WAY too long, this episode will feel like the hand you have needed to hold. I'm so honored to share such a sacred relationship that I have worked so closely with over the last couple years. Manuela truly has a one-of-kind gift. Thank you all so much for listening.   HERE'S THE JUICE: Breaking down what an intuitive energy healer REALLY does, and accessible tools to tap into Manuela shares the first signs she had spiritual gifts and how loss became her doorway into her gift Why Western culture is afraid to feel, and the subtle ways we are actually disconnecting ourselves from what is energetically meant for us  Understanding the fear of death, and why grief requires us to feel all the way through, not avoid. The most important piece of this is not to be equally afraid of life. Is fear of letting go just fear of our own capacity for freedom? How to ask the people closest to you: "What do you see in me that others can't?" Understanding that the people we love can often help us find our gifts.

Ep. 146 Is heightened intuition a gift or a trauma response? Why is it stronger for some than others, and what is the science behind why some people have 'psychic' abilities? Laura Day, world-renowned intuitive and bestselling author of Practical Intuition and her new book The Prism, is diving into why our unique childhood experiences & 'wounds' can determine the ways in which our intuition may express as an adult. Laura grew up in a chaotic home affected by suicide, manic depression, and narcissism, effectively raising her siblings alone, and is sharing how her beginning actually became the portal to discovering her intuitive gifts. She breaks down the important difference between intuition and wisdom, and why intuition can be both a superpower and a stumbling block depending on how we develop it. HERE'S THE JUICE - Breaking down how she developed her gift for intuition through trauma, highlighting  how many of our childhoods are prone to trauma due to lack of power - Laura shares her early life experiences – coming from three generations of physicians, and how that gave her a data-driven approach to intuition - Why the very things that challenged us most often become our points of greatest strength and tangible steps to identify our challenges and take small steps to create the life we want - The importance of avoiding the trap of constantly trying to "change yourself" and instead approaching the mind as a mechanical system that may only need a small change - The crucial difference between intuition and wisdom - Why intuition is a double-edged sword and when we should and shouldn't listen to it   TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Laura speaking on Gift and trauma of intuition 03:09 Laura Day's Story 09:24 The science behind intuition 15:38 The role of trauma in intuition 22:09 The mechanics of change and the importance of small changes 29:32 Understanding intuition and its limits 35:30 Empowered realistic thinking 36:21 Navigating self-perception and growth 40:07 The power of reparenting and healing 51:47 Understanding ergo centers and intuition 01:05:02 Setting goals and embracing change   MY MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW ⭐️❤️🥲 Listen to Another Lover Listen to Love Sounds  Follow me on Spotify (O.LIVIA)   Watch the full episode: What's The Juice YouTube Channel  Olivia's herbal remedies: HERE Shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more at www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia's personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia's blog posts   Connect with Laura Day:  Follow on Instagram Upcoming Events  Website The Prism   Connect with What's The Juice: Follow What's The Juice  Email us: [email protected]  

Ep. 145 Do you ever wake up with that sense of dread about how much has to get done - that you jump right into work mode? You put yourself on the clock immediately (especially mentally), without stopping to check in with the methods, pace, or unattended needs that might truly support the flow of your day? Do you find yourself not moving enough all day because it feels like there's not enough time to break or eat because you can't justify moving from your computer? Mayssa Chehata, my dear friend and founder of the BEHAVE candy company, is sharing what it actually took for her to move out of a productivity-first based mindset… to creating space, listening to her body, and allowing for the right rest to fuel creativity as a female founder. We talk about the rock bottoms that force us to rebuild, how anger can be an important part of the healing journey, and the shift that happens when you learn to give yourself what you so deeply need to become the next best version of you. HERE'S THE JUICE Breaking down WHY dragging yourself out of bed every day to create will dwindle your creativity down to zero  Why do we struggle to embody the feminine so often in a work setting? What does that actually mean? Avoiding conflict is not staying out of conflict, and why that avoidance can take a huge toll on our relationships.  What Mayssa calls "Loonybin thinking" and how she was able to restructure her life after taking radical responsibility for a victim mindset. Anger being is a really important piece of our relationships with our parents, and it's healthy to have it but it's equally important to learn not to get stuck in it  Discovering the art of how to be alone and give yourself what you have been craving from other people   MY MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW ⭐️❤️🥲 Listen to Angel Listen to Another Lover Listen to Love Sounds  Follow me on Spotify (O.LIVIA) Follow me on Apple Follow me YouTube Follow me on Amazon Music   Watch the full episode: What's The Juice YouTube Channel  Olivia's herbal remedies: HERE Shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more at www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia's personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia's blog posts   Connect with Mayssa:  Follow on Instagram Follow on Tiktok    BEHAVE Candy:  Follow on Instagram Follow on Tiktok BEHAVE Website PROM CODE: OLIVIA   Connect with What's The Juice: Follow What's The Juice  Leave us a voicemail  Email us: [email protected]

Ep 141. Do you know your top five values? Or even your top three? Often, we think we are making decisions based on our values, but we may be unknowingly making decisions based on our fears. This week, Dr. Molly Burrets, a highly regarded licensed clinical psychologist and professor at the University of Southern California (USC), is breaking down the psychology behind values-based decision-making. If you're someone who often feels at odds when making decisions, like two parts of your brain are arguing and pulling apart from each other? Dr. Molly expertly explains what is happening on a psychological level and how to break the cycle we often find ourselves in when fear creeps into our decision-making. She breaks down the dynamics of control – why we seek control to gain safety and how this can hinder our ability to attain genuine connection in our relationships. Her insights on the pursuit of safety, with control leading to hypervigilance, were truly one of those moments on the podcast that will stop you in your tracks.

Ep 139. Three years ago, I felt completely lost. I was paralyzed by this feeling that my life no longer matched my purpose — like I needed to step back, stop the ship, and change course, even though nothing was "wrong." During my yearly birthday reading with master intuitive Nikki Novo, she told me that my soul was renegotiating its contract and was ready to bring some deeper medicine to the world. "For some reason I'm seeing you at the end of your life… and you're going to die being known as an artist." As an herbalist, I was confused. I thought the holistic health world and business was my calling. I thought I already created my "thing." But what if that was a chapter, one way to share, but not even scratching the surface of my gifts? For those years, I sat through my grueling death and rebirth, holding onto her words. Finally, my art came. I painted for 9 months straight, then woke up one day, decided to finally own my true gifts, and started writing music. Today, I have completed writing and recording my first album, prepping for release later this year. In this episode, I sit down with the woman who always sees my life coming before I do. Her highly accurate predictions have hinted for years about my journey with music and so much more. We dive into the behind-the-scenes of her readings and the importance of creating rituals around creativity. Nikki shares her story of telling her family about her gift and moving from a place of generational survival to creativity. If you, like me, feel you are ready to step into your natural born gifts but don't know how to identify or share them, this one is for you!    HERE'S THE JUICE:   Why the relationship between our inner creative and our inner manager is vital to allowing the space for us to create – oftentimes, a certain level of safety is needed before we can make art Identifying your natural born gifts and the importance of respecting them for them to grow  The deep power of rituals around creating art and identifying a practice for yourself to trust that you will be able to tune into your creativity when you want to The profound importance of seeing gifts in others and the understanding that for a gift to turn into a talent it needs to be valued - why you only need one person to see your gift and hold that higher vision for it Walking the line between sharing too much in readings and the importance of not changing our path – What Nikki feels a reading should be used for   Connect with Olivia: Watch the full episode on What's The Juice YouTube Channel  To support our ad-free show, shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more by visiting www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Nikki: Follow Nikki on Instagram  Follow Nikki on YouTube  Nikki's website  Nikkis Courses   Connect with What's The Juice: Follow What's The Juice  Leave us a voicemail  Email us: [email protected] Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia's personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia's blog posts  

Ep 138. Have you ever wondered when we learn to stop being honest with ourselves, and how this teaches us to suppress our body's signals? What if learning the truth is unsafe starts in our family systems — and how do we begin to tell the truth as adults? Nina Passero, FDN-P and my BFF is back on the pod! Nina has genuinely had one of the most intense journeys these past 6 years, from losing her beloved brother Matteo, to becoming a mother, to unpacking the taboo truths about grief that we never learn until we have to. This time, we are sitting down for a much more intimate chat. This is one of those conversations that speaks to the heart of our friendship.

Ep 137 Have you ever wished you could curate more magic into your daily life? Building a routine is so important but how do we take our routines a step further to ritualize the mundane? We're all guilty of rushing through our days to maximize productivity, yet slowing wayyyy down allows us to find meaning in the in-between moments. In this episode, I'm taking you through some of the special daily & seasonal rituals that have helped me mark important moments in time, incorporate prayer and mindfulness to really understand what's happening in my life, and shifted my mindset to see the beauty of what is in front of me. We think that the impactful moments in life have to all be large but the real moments are as small as appreciating warm socks, climbing into a made bed, or gentle movement. Turning an everyday task into something sacred can be the first step to shifting our minds to a state of gratitude. Through developing a ritual around daily and seasonal practices we can nurture a deeper relationship with ourselves, and our ancestors to make our day-to-day life just a little bit sweeter.   HERE'S THE JUICE: Why we need to understand the difference between routine and ritual & how to use presence to transform everyday tasks Olivia's entire morning regimen and the science behind each element How to create sacred space through simple practices like phone-free walks  The transformative power of the Jupiter Kazemi weekend and how it changed her approach to play How to bring ritual into herbalism and plants and the importance of maintaining an altar space for ancestral connection The real reason  slowing down will deeply change your relationship with daily tasks and the power of listening to signs and synchronicities in everyday life The subtle art of noticing in order to receive guidance from the world around you   Connect with Olivia: Watch the full episode on What's The Juice YouTube Channel  To support our ad-free show, shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more by visiting www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with What's The Juice: Follow What's The Juice  Leave us a voicemail  Email us: [email protected]   Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia's personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia's blog posts

Ep 136 Do you feel like you're ready to be the main character in your story — but all your life you've been in a supporting role? Are you trying to pursue your calling, but perfectionism and the fear of being seen are holding you back? Today we have a very special guest on the podcast for a much needed heart to heart.. this is the type of conversation that women have behind closed doors that helps us to heal and deeply witness one another. Noelle is joining us today for real talk on the intricacies of motherhood, the terrifying but thrilling prospect of owning your gifts and no longer playing small, and taking back your OWN life no matter what that looks like to you. Noelle is here to break down everything from starting her "Fit + Thick" career behind the scenes with her sister, to realizing she was worthy of being on the forefront too, and how the concept of "messy action" got her through it. This conversation was such a gift to record and truly highlights the importance of holding a vision for those we love and the deep power friendship can have.   HERE'S THE JUICE: Noelle's journey from living in her mind to truly inhabiting her body and the vulnerability of starting over and letting go of anger How to take messy action, Noelle shares on working with her sister, and the unexpected challenges that pushed her forward. Unpacking the realizations Noelle had to have to step into her own story – understanding that you can only meet people as deeply as you have met yourself.  Why motherhood has the potential to push us to become better versions of ourselves and tangible tools to harness that potential if you are feeling overwhelmed   Recognizing that everything, cleaning, cooking, playing with your child, can be an opportunity for nervous system work.

Ep. 135 Do you feel like there's often a rebellious, childlike part of you calling the shots despite your best efforts to take action aligned with your goals? Does she procrastinate to the point of self-sabotage, or go for the box of cookies when you know a solid meal is what you need? Does this rebellion come out when you're working to an extreme, being especially hard on yourself or tying your worth solely to your productivity? This is where "reparenting" ourselves comes in: the part of adulthood where we realize it's our job to be our own parent, but we have no idea where to start when a parent was also unkind to themselves or not in touch with their own worth and needs. Over the last four years, I've slowly learned how to answer the question, "what do I need right now?" — sometimes it's good old discipline, other times it's connection or rest. I found that I got to recreate my own "inner mother" who was capable of being honest and curious enough to make the call from a place of trust and self knowing,  but it wasn't easy to get there. I'm walking you through every step I had to go through to move from self-criticism to self-parenting.
