Venus retrograde has a reputation for bringing old lovers back, but what if that's only scratching the surface? In this episode, I'm joined by astrologer Larissa Vasile of Saturn Revolution for a rich conversation about the deeper purpose of Venus retrograde and why this upcoming cycle feels especially significant. Together, we explore how Venus retrograde asks us to re-evaluate our relationships, values, self-worth, creativity, and the stories we've been carrying about our hearts. We also dive into the bigger astrological landscape, including the shifting collective energy, the importance of the fixed signs, and why this moment marks a profound turning point for so many people. Rather than fearing retrogrades, we discuss how to consciously work with them as invitations for healing, reflection, and realignment. We hope this conversation can help you move through the cosmic tides this fall, and find greater awareness. What you'll discover: Why Venus retrograde is about far more than exes returning.The deeper themes of value, self-worth, love, and authenticity that emerge during this cycle.How the current collective astrology amplifies the significance of this Venus retrograde.The role of the fixed signs in the larger shifts we're experiencing.How to consciously work with retrogrades instead of fearing them.Why slowing down and reflecting can lead to more aligned decisions.Practical insights to help you navigate the months ahead with greater clarity and intention.

In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Meg Sylvester to explore what it means to stop endlessly trying to fix yourself and start fully living. We talk about the healing hamster wheel, spiritual awakening, creative expression, personal reinvention, and why so many people feel trapped by the identities they've outgrown. Meg shares her journey rediscovering herself, returning to her humanity after years of intense spiritual seeking, and discovering that joy, pleasure, creativity, and self-expression were not distractions from growth, but part of her journey home to herself.  Together, we unpack the pressure to niche down, the challenges of being a multidimensional entrepreneur, and the permission required to evolve beyond who you once were. This conversation is an invitation to release labels, trust your natural expansion, and stop treating yourself like a project that constantly needs fixing. If you've ever felt exhausted by self-improvement, confused by your next chapter, or afraid to outgrow old versions of yourself, I hope this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. This episode is for you if... You feel exhausted by years of self-help, healing, and personal development work You constantly feel like there is another problem you need to fix about yourself You're moving through a major identity shift or life transition You've outgrown old versions of yourself and aren't sure what's next You feel pressure to fit into a specific niche or category in your business You're a creative person craving more self-expression You want to experience more joy, pleasure, and aliveness in your life You've been deep in spiritual work and want to reconnect with your humanity You're a multidimensional entrepreneur struggling to fit into one box You want permission to evolve without explaining yourself You're learning to trust your own path rather than follow someone else's formula Meg Sylvester is a multi-passionate creative, speaker, author, and facilitator whose vibrant, soulful presence has inspired thousands around the world through her events, retreats, content, and teachings.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with somatic practitioner and author Kallie Klug to explore the fawn response, the biology behind people-pleasing, and why so many of us struggle with conflict, visibility, boundaries, and the fear of being disliked. Together, we unpack how fawning develops, what it feels like in the body, and why healing it requires more than simply changing your mindset. Kallie shares her personal journey into somatic psychology, the inspiration behind her upcoming book, and her unique approach to helping people loosen their attachment to being perceived as "good." We also dive into anger, self-censorship, creativity, social media visibility, family dynamics, and the ways our nervous systems keep us safe by shrinking, performing, or abandoning ourselves. If you've ever struggled to speak up, set boundaries, express your truth, or stop worrying about what everyone thinks of you, this episode offers a compassionate and deeply embodied perspective on what healing can actually look like. Press play for an honest conversation about nervous system healing, authenticity, and reclaiming the parts of yourself you've been taught to suppress. This Episode Is For You If... You constantly worry about what other people think of you You struggle to set boundaries without guilt You avoid conflict even when something feels deeply wrong You identify as a people-pleaser and want to understand why You often shrink, perform, or self-censor to keep others comfortable You are healing from patterns of fawning or chronic self-abandonment You are a creative, entrepreneur, teacher, healer, or artist afraid of criticism You find yourself obsessing over negative comments or rejection You want a more embodied approach to healing than mindset work alone You have a complicated relationship with anger You are interested in somatics, nervous system healing, and trauma-informed growth You want to feel more authentic, visible, and free to express yourself Kallie's teachings are grounded in somatic psychology and traditional embodiment practices to help those who experience her work to access the inner wisdom of their own bodies. She believes we all have the key within ourselves to stop outsourcing our healing and to unlock potent empowerment from within.

What happens when the structures we've relied on for security begin to shift beneath our feet? In this episode of It's Karmic, I am joined by astrologer Tamber to explore the profound transition of Chiron into Taurus and what this collective transit may reveal about our relationship with money, safety, worthiness, and survival. Together, we unpack the connection between Uranus in Taurus and the wounds Chiron now invites us to heal. From inflation and changing financial realities to deeper questions around self-worth and abundance, this conversation explores how collective experiences shape our personal narratives around security.

In this raw and unfiltered episode of the It's Karmic Podcast, I sit down with returning guest Renata Tarvaski for a vulnerable conversation about Pluto transits, visibility wounds, creative rebirth, identity death, and the terrifying process of becoming more authentic. Together, we unpack what happens when astrology is more than mental and starts dismantling your entire life from the inside out. This episode will be particularly helpful for anyone that has Leo placements being impacted by Pluto at this time.  This episode explores: Pluto transits and identity death The fear of being seen online Leo and Aquarius visibility wounds Creativity, performance, and self-expression The grief of outgrowing old versions of yourself How criticism and projections impact creators Nervous system collapse, burnout, and transformation Death anxiety, existential spirals, and spiritual awakening The tension between authenticity and belonging Why your creativity may feel different after major transits How astrology can become a tool for liberation instead of fear This conversation is messy, honest, emotional, philosophical, and deeply human. If you’ve been feeling stripped bare by life lately… if your work no longer fits the version of you that created it… if you’ve been hiding, shrinking, overthinking, or terrified to fully express yourself, this episode will feel like a hand reaching into the underworld saying: you are not crazy, and there is something on the other side of this.

What happens when Uranus enters Gemini and begins rewiring the collective mind? In this episode of the It’s Karmic Podcast, I sit down with Tambor for a deep, uncensored conversation on the next seven years of Uranus in Gemini. Together, we explore the acceleration of AI, nervous system overwhelm, digital culture, consciousness, media manipulation, freedom of speech, and the growing split between hyper-technological living and the human desire for real connection. From Atlantean karma and the ethics of technology to voice wounds, authenticity, analogue living, and reclaiming the mind, this conversation moves through both the spiritual and practical realities of this transit. This episode is for the souls questioning reality, feeling the collective static, craving deeper connection, and sensing that humanity is standing at a major crossroads. Inside this episode: Uranus in Gemini and the acceleration of AI The nervous system impacts of technology and overstimulation Freedom of speech, voice wounds, and reclaiming your truth The rise of analogue culture and rebellion through simplicity Consciousness, mind control, and media manipulation Atlantean karma and the misuse of technology Authenticity, visibility, and being misunderstood The split between disconnection and genuine human connection Why this transit may completely reshape collective reality This is a conversation on consciousness, chaos, technology, and what it means to stay human in rapidly changing times.

In this fascinating episode of the It’s Karmic Podcast, I sit down with archaeologist, writer, and researcher Carla Berenice for a conversation that bridges archaeology, spirituality, ancient cosmology, consciousness, ritual, and the mysteries of human existence. Together, we explore the tension between mainstream Egyptology and the esoteric questions many people secretly feel drawn toward: Did the ancient Egyptians understand something profound about reality, death, and consciousness that we’ve forgotten? And what happens when modern culture disconnects from ritual, meaning, and our role within the cosmos? Carla and I discuss ancient Egyptian beliefs around the soul, death, time, magic, ritual, and cosmic order — including the concept of Maat, the sacred balance that maintained harmony between humanity and the universe. Carla explains how the Egyptians viewed life not as random existence, but as a process of becoming: a sacred unfolding of the soul into its fullest form. The episode also explores: Ancient Egyptian views on the afterlife and consciousness The Book of the Dead and its true meaning Why ritual was considered necessary for maintaining cosmic balance The dangers of losing sacred wisdom and becoming disconnected from purpose Initiation, discipline, and spiritual maturity The overlap between Egyptian cosmology, karma, Daoism, Buddhism, astrology, and mystical traditions Reincarnation, collective memory, and whether certain ancient cultures leave “imprints” on the collective unconscious Why modern spirituality often lacks depth, devotion, and true initiation The relationship between ancient wisdom and modern chaos If you’ve ever felt mysteriously drawn to ancient Egypt, ritual, past lives, consciousness, archaeology, astrology, or the deeper purpose of being human, this episode will absolutely pull you in. Carla Berenice is an archaeologist, writer, and founder. Trained in Classical Archaeology, Near Eastern Archaeology, and Egyptology, specializing in Ancient languages and intercultural history. Through her Substack, Pyramids and Hieroglyphs, she writes and speaks about ancient Egypt, hieroglyphs, mythology, metaphysics, and the deeper cultural imagination behind the ancient world, making complex historical material vivid and accessible for a broader audience.

There’s a moment in your life where you realize…you can keep playing it safe, or you can finally choose yourself. In this episode, I sit down with Tamber for a conversation that goes way deeper than astrology.  This is about claiming your voice, leaving behind the systems that don’t fit, and trusting the path that doesn’t come with a rulebook. We talk about what it actually looks like to step out of the “logical, acceptable life”… and into something that feels aligned, creative, and real. If you’ve been sitting on your gifts, waiting for permission, or quietly knowing you’re meant for more, this one will hit. In this episode we unpack: The identity shift from “doing what makes sense” to owning your true path Why rejection can be the exact redirection your soul needs The hidden exhaustion of performing online (and what to do instead) Claiming the identities that feel scary to say out loud (writer, artist, creator) The truth about building a business that doesn’t burn you out Leaving the 9–5 and navigating the “trust fall” into your purpose Social media, Substack, and finding platforms that actually feel aligned Reconnecting with intuition by stepping out of constant noise and distraction The discipline it takes to build something real, even when no one is watching Tamber is an astrologer, intuitive guide, and writer who is here to help you become your most aligned and abundant self using astrology, energetics, and grounded mysticism.

This episode is a raw, honest, and deeply personal dive into the visibility wound, the fear of being seen, the fear of being judged, and the fear of fully claiming your creative power. I share my own story of how my artistry was slowly shut down through moments of rejection, shame, and unconscious programming, and how those experiences shaped my relationship with being seen. We explore the karmic, ancestral, and astrological layers behind visibility, creativity, and self-expression, and why so many of us feel called to create… but terrified to share it. This is a conversation about reclaiming your voice, your art, and your right to take up space without needing permission, perfection, or validation. If you’ve ever felt like you’re meant for more but something keeps holding you back… this episode will help guide you back to your creative spark. What to Expect From This Episode A deep exploration of the visibility wound and where it actually begins How childhood moments, family dynamics, and ancestral patterns shape your fear of being seen The link between creativity, rejection, and belonging Astrological insight into visibility (Leo/Aquarius axis, Pluto transits, 5th house energy) The difference between performative visibility vs. authentic expression Why your fear of judgment is often a projection of past experiences The real reason creatives hold themselves back (and how it shows up subtly) Why the world actually needs your art, your voice, your expression A powerful reframe on rejection, imperfection, and being disliked An invitation to start creating again… messy, imperfect, and real How to work with me right now: Mentorship: The most intimate way to work with me.

In this powerful conversation, I welcome back Mystic Bru, aka Bruna Nessif for a deep exploration of the unseen forces shaping our world and our inner lives. What if the spiritual war everyone senses right now has already been fought and won… and what we’re witnessing is simply the physical world catching up? Together, Bruna and I dive into the idea that many people have spent the past several years in a profound underworld journey individually, while processing what has been happening collectively. Facing their shadows, breaking ancestral patterns, and confronting unseen energetic dynamics that influence both our personal lives and the collective. From the concept of egregores and energetic entities, to the collapse of inherited belief systems, this episode explores how personal shadow work mirrors the larger transformations unfolding across society. We also discuss the dangers of spiritual ego, the saviour complex, and the pendulum swings that often happen when people awaken to deeper truths. This conversation is a reminder that the chaos we’re witnessing may not be the end of the world, but the end of a world that can no longer sustain itself. If you’ve felt like you’ve been fighting battles in the unseen, navigating intense personal transformation, or questioning the systems you were taught to trust… This episode will resonate deeply.

This week on the It’s Karmic Podcast I connect with Alexandria Kenyon and Kristy Cerullo for a conversation about psychic embodiment, soul-aligned work, and what happens when the body says “no” to misalignment in your lifeTogether, we explore the creation of their psychic school, the cost of pushing through masculine-led systems, the psychic origins of burnout and illness, and why trauma-informed, female-centred leadership is key. This conversation is about reclaiming intuition, honouring the body, and remembering that ease is earned through deep shadow work. Key Themes We Explore →Stepping into your purpose through alignment, not force → Leaving misaligned systems without demonizing the lesson → Psychic training as embodiment instead of performance → Trauma-informed, female-body-centred teaching models → The danger of pushing through late luteal / nervous system overrides → Burnout, chronic illness, and the psychic origins of dis-ease → Taking on other people’s energy without knowing you’re sensitive → Misalignment vs. carrying energy that isn’t yours →Reclaiming intuition after years of dissociation →Why so many highly sensitive people don’t realize they’re psychic (especially women) →Returning to soul work after burning things down→Liberation as a leadership responsibility This episode is for you if you're: → Highly sensitive people who feel burned out but don’t know why → Women who’ve been taught to override their bodies to succeed → Healers, psychics, coaches, and space holders feeling exhausted → Anyone questioning whether their illness or burnout has a deeper origin → People ready to lead without abandoning themselves Alexandria Kenyon and Kristy Cerullo are master clairvoyants and the founders of Psychic School. Known for their precise, amusing approach to intuition, they teach psychic development as a learnable skill—rooted in energetic hygiene, nervous system regulation, and self-trust. Psychic School exists to train the next generation of grounded, ethical, and powerful intuitives.

In this episode of the It’s Karmic Podcast I dive into the major turning points we, as a collective, are entering as we step through the threshold in 2026. Everything we have moved through since 2020 (and beyond) has led us to this turning point.  I dig into the final changes of the outer planets including Saturn, Uranus, Neptune as well as the Nodes of Fate and Jupiter. This year promises to be the first of the next phase collectively and personally. By understanding where you’re being asked to transition in your life, what is being demanded to be let go of, and your capacity to hold the shadow, you will be able to meet these growing pains with more ease. That is my ultimate goal with this episode.  Major themes explored in the podcast:  The Saturn Neptune Conjunction in Aries and how we are entering a zero point new world while simultaneously meeting the crisis point of this time period. Uranus entering Gemini and the horizon of technological changes and advancements. The Nodes of Fate shifting into Aquarius and Leo and the shifting collective focus into collectivism and individualism  Jupiter shifting into Leo and the inevitable power play that will come from this interaction opposing Pluto How we move through times of collapse and crisis while understanding we are in the birthing canal  How we come back home to self in this moments of collective panic Ready to go deeper with me in your Karmic Astrology studies?

This final episode for the year explores how 2025 exposed what we thought our values were vs what they actually are, the rebirth and importance of community, the cost of constant consumption, and why 2026 is asking us to live slower, more embodied, and more relational lives. You’ve likely felt it… but 2026 asks something completely different of us from what we’ve been living. From the way we use media, to how we exist in the world. What you'll discover in this episode: Why 2025 cracked us open and changed what truly mattersGrieving old versions of yourself instead of carrying them forwardWhy community, presence, and real connection are non-negotiable nowWhy 2026 isn’t about doing more, but about living differently This episode is for you if: If this year humbled youIf your body forced you to listenIf your identity crackedIf you’re tired of scrolling your life awayIf you’re craving depth, slowness, and real connection and If you know something is ending, but the new hasn’t fully landed yet Ready to deepen your understanding of your birth chart?
