Trusting Your Gifts & Intuition: A Conversation with Sarah Renee, Medium

How do we learn to trust our gifts when the world feels chaotic and overwhelming? In this episode of Embodied, I spoke with Sarah Renee, a renowned medium and spiritual transformation coach, about the profound journey of navigating trust, healing, and divine guidance. With over 50,000 readings worldwide, Sarah shares her powerful story of embracing her spiritual gifts after years of doubt, trauma, and healing.

In our hour-long conversation, Sarah and I explored:

  • Lessons from Sarah’s connection with Dr. Wayne Dyer, who continues to guide her from the spirit realm.
  • The role of divine mentorship in navigating life’s most difficult moments.
  • How life’s challenges prepare us for our spiritual purpose.
  • Why trust is a daily practice and not a perfect state.
  • How to create supportive spiritual containers for growth and awakening.

Sarah’s relationship with Dr. Dyer was particularly moving. She shared:

"I feel like he still is working, like just taking care of...

Emotional Awareness for First Responders: A Conversation with Mike Sears, Fire Captain

How do we begin to trust ourselves when life demands we suppress our emotions? This question is at the heart of my conversation with Mike Sears, a Halifax Fire Captain, peer support advocate, and founder of Fight4Life. A firefighter for over two decades, Mike shares his journey of reconnecting with his body after emotional numbness, offering profound lessons in trust, healing, and transformation.

On Embodied, Mike talks about navigating the intense demands of firefighting, where vulnerability often takes a backseat to survival. After a breaking point left him physically and emotionally drained, he attended the BC Firefighter Resiliency Program, where he processed years of stored trauma and rediscovered what he calls a sense of “body calm.”

In our conversation, we explore:

  • How suppressed emotions manifest in the body as physical symptoms.
  • The courage it takes to step back and prioritize healing.
  • Why vulnerability can be a profound strength, even in high-stakes...

Trust and Healing After Loss: A Conversation with Estelle Thomson

We all have moments that push us to open up to life in ways we never expected—moments that call us to trust, even when it feels impossible. This season of Embodied is all about that powerful kind of trust and the profound transformations it can lead to.

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Estelle Thomson, a yoga teacher, artist, and educator whose work blends embodiment, expressive arts, and psychology. 

Estelle shares how the loss of her son Tommy became a profound journey into healing, leading her to a deeper connection with life and purpose.

During our conversation, Estelle reflects, “How can I let grief move through me and widen me and expand me? … How can I let my karma be my dharma? This was given to me, so how can I carry it?”

Estelle’s words remind us that trust, healing, and self-love are deeply embodied experiences, and that listening to our bodies is a powerful act of self-compassion.

Sensitivity as Inspiration: A Conversation with Prune Harris

We’ve all faced moments that force us to confront our vulnerability—moments that challenge us to embrace our sensitivity, our uncertainty, and our need to trust in something larger than ourselves. This episode marks the beginning of Season 3 of Embodied, where I’ll dive into the transformative power of trust through deep conversations with thought leaders, creatives, and spiritual guides.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Prune Harris, an energy expert, educator, and bestselling author of Your Radiant Soul. Prune has the rare ability to see energy from birth, and this gift has shaped her life. Together, we explore how our high sensitivity, often seen as a weakness, can become a superpower when we trust it.

In our conversation, we explore:

  • How sensitivity can be a profound gift.
  • How burnout, while difficult, can serve as a rite of passage.
  • The heart's role as a conduit for the soul's energy.
  • The importance of tending to our inner...

Retreat Insights: 7 Tips from Anne Bérubé

Guided Meditation: Connect with Your Younger Self

Take 15 minutes and join me in this guided meditation, where we connect with different versions of ourselves at various stages of life. This practice encourages self-compassion and kindness as we gently explore our inner world.

I’ve always found that when we take the time to listen to the younger parts of ourselves, we discover profound wisdom and healing. In this session, we’ll meet our 15-year-old, 9-year-old, and 3-year-old selves, and with love, we’ll embrace their stories and experiences. We'll also connect to our core essence—the true self that existed before we arrived in this world.

Allow yourself to feel deeply, to trust the process, and to honour what comes up. The light and love that flow through this meditation will remind you that you are supported, understood, and held in the highest regard by the universe.

Take your time, and when you’re ready, come back and reflect on any insights or revelations that emerge. I can’t wait for you to...

Comfort in Chaos

We often find comfort in conflict. Intensity and contrast are all around us, all the time, especially with everything happening around the world. For many of us, conflict has become our default setting. And when it goes on too long, we feel more comfortable in the chaos of an argument or a dramatic piece of news than in stillness.

Pushing limits until they break

Often we pride ourselves on how much we can handle. Our backs are strong, people can lean on us. The more problems to solve and the more crises to manage, the better. We take it on not necessarily because we want to, but mostly out of habit and because we can. We hold on to the limited belief of: “I should because I can.” And when chaos outside settles, we realize we have forgotten how to thrive without it. Our subconscious seeks the familiarity of chaos.

I know this about me. I can push my limits quite far until I can't anymore. I can ignore my desire for stillness and creative expression for a long while,...

From the Session: Top Ways Kauai Helps You Reconnect

The energy of Kauai is so unique: she meets you exactly where you are and loves you so deeply that you can’t help but meet yourself over and over again.

Life Is On Your Side

My body quickly forgets that life is on my side.

Even after years of healing, my animal suit tries to protect me from disappointment by attempting to control outcomes.

The protective instinct: Childhood and beyond

It wasn’t safe to be open and soft as a child. And if I put my guard down, my environment quickly reminded me to put it back up. That reminder often came as a surprise, out of left field, catching me vulnerable, reinforcing the need for more protection, more layers.

Sometimes, everything outside of me proves true my conditioned belief that life is not on my side—I am the only one on my side.

The cost of closed hearts: physical and emotional impact

When my heart is closed, and my fire is kept neatly at bay below my diaphragm, with shallow breaths and busyness, of course, the reality I project is one of disappointment, compromise, and smallness.

And if I stay like this for a while, my inner world starts to crumble too.

It’s harder to meditate, harder to...

Unlock Your Inner Storyteller: A Journey to Transformative Writing

“Sharing your story in a way that can bring transformation to someone’s life is an art.”

The pull to know myself through stringing together sentences and paragraphs has been with me for as long as I can remember.

At a very young age, I began keeping a journal. My maternal grandmother gave me my first one when I was seven. I discovered early on that writing fulfilled my desire to understand myself and make sense of what I was feeling inside. If I was upset, anxious, or overly excited about something, I always felt better after writing in my journal. Writing settled my mind and eased my heart.

Writing as a path to clarity

Today, when I feel overwhelmed, lost, or incredibly passionate about something, putting pen to paper always clarifies a situation and illuminates the path forward. I have come to know that unease, anxiety, or frustration are simply the ways my soul speaks to me; they are the expressions of the impulse of new information wanting to be known by my...
