  • What holds you back?

    What holds you back?
    Dec 15 2023
    We're back with a vulnerable episode about ways I've been holding myself back, why, and what I'm doing about it. The intention of this episode is to shine light on the "cobwebby" parts of life to normalize the experience and provide you as a listener the opportunity to have your own insights come up. When we hear other people's stories it's often easier for us to decide what we would do in that scenario rather than when we actually are in that scenario. This episode will help you gain your own clarity. Plus, Living On Purpose turns 3!! 🥳 Enjoy xo

  • This is who you are

    This is who you are
    Nov 8 2023
    Only you know who you really are, but this episode provides you with a framework to help you understand why you might make certain choices and even how to pull back the layers and create changes that you crave in your life. You'll hear a borrowed perspective from the psychology world, paired with an additional step that through experience I've found to be supportive. We discuss our identity from multiple different perspectives with the intention of illuminating paths you can take to change, or alter the way you view yourself. As always, I share personal examples to bring it all to life. Enjoy! Xo IG: @Stephanie.isabella_

  • The nature of lessons in life

    The nature of lessons in life
    Oct 28 2023
    Life lessons are not linear and we often experience them as Life seemingly falling apart, challenges, or even chaos around us. Through these hard times we are presented with opportunities to learn in ways that will ultimately bring us closer to our dreams, visions and goals. A common hang-up here is that "opportunities" can be easily misunderstood as a box to check and move through and even seen as toxic positivity. The key is the way we view and navigate these opportunities. This episode gets into reasons why these lessons might be coming up, and a powerful phrase to avoid if you're serious about your growth. As usual, you'll hear a personal story of a lesson that's coming up for me… again, and how that is the nature of lessons. You'll also hear why this is actually beneficial. Finally, you'll hear a perspective on your nervous system in relation to your visions, dreams and goals and how life's lessons might apply. Enjoy! Xo IG: @stephanie.isabella_

  • But is it accessible to you?

    But is it accessible to you?
    Oct 23 2023
    Point blank: if you spend any time on the internet, you've probably heard advice, tools, recommendations, or tips and tricks that aren't accessible to you. What does it mean for those things to not be accessible to you? Essentially it means that based on your lived experience, you don't have access (either in that momet, at this time of your life, or at all) to that advice/tool/tip/trick. What it means is that what's "accessible" to me, might not be to you. This conversation is all about identifying patterns and times in your life when you've reacted, but you'd rather respond with purpose and intention. This conversation asks you to reflect honestly on your life both in ways that you might have more access to some tools than others, and in ways that others might have more access than you. The point is not to succumb to a "life is terrible and keeps crushing me" mindset, the point is to get honest with yourself about tools that might benefit you in the future, and how to diversify your tool box so you do have access to what you need. It's not about perfection here, and we won't always have the ability to regulate ourselves, but thats okay. The point is small improvements over time that bring us closer to our authentic selves.

  • Is managing your energy Toxic Positivity?

    Is managing your energy Toxic Positivity?
    Oct 11 2023

    If you know the term Toxic Positivity, you likely know it's not an ideal thing (I mean, it has "toxic" in it). But sometimes, being responsible for our own energy or managing our energy can look similar to Toxic Positivity. The key here is that while they may look similar, they are not the same.


    Our energy can be described in many different ways, but in the simplest form, think about how you wake up. Do you feel "energized?" Tired? Low? Inspired? This is one example of our energy. If we wake up feeling low, we may want to shift that energy into a brighter place. But where's the line with that becoming Toxic Positivity?


    This episode discusses this nuanced conversation and highlights the differences and similarities between both. As usual, I bring in personal stories to highlight the differences and share my journey of learning about Toxic Positivity on a whole new layer.


    You'll leave this episode with a sense of encouragement to be responsible for, and manage your energy, without Toxic Positivity.


    Enjoy xo

  • When "it" is not working out

    When "it" is not working out
    Oct 4 2023

    We can get all the signs, feel aligned af, and still experience things (people, situations, opportunities, experiences, etc.) not working out how we thought they would. Does this mean we haven't been Living On Purpose, have been misreading signs, and have gotten too far ahead of ourselves? Or, is there another explanation?


    This episode dives into this question and offers perspectives that can be supportive of continuing to move through life with grace, even when it's not turning out how we thought. We discuss the way we can begin to doubt ourselves, and some common beliefs that may arise through the uncertainty.


    As usual, I share a real life story of a time this exact thing came up for me, and what I was able to take away from it, despite it not unfolding anything like the way I thought it would. I share how I doubted my original intuitive hits and the final result was sovereignty and agency over myself (aka, NOT the outcome I thought I was going after).


    You'll hear the three key concepts that can support you in moving through the discomfort of not knowing. You'll also hear metaphors and examples that bring the concept of "it not working out" to life.


    Enjoy xo

  • Sensitivity: what you need to know to make it work for you

    Sensitivity: what you need to know to make it work for you
    Sep 27 2023
    There are loads of ways sensitivity can be experienced. Physically, emotionally, energetically, spiritually... there are a lot of lenses to look at. The commonality for all types is that it can be used for your benefit, but it might seem like the biggest curse of all at first. This episode provides a loose framework for you to begin to process and understand your sensitivity. You'll hear an honest perspective of how I felt when a doctor suggested my sensitivity was a strength (clue: I was pissed), and the process I went on to get to where I am today. Today I use my sensitivity as a super power to support others on their own self discovery and healing. I invite you to begin to create a vision for your future, with your sensitivity, that may be pistive or even neutral. I invite you to begin reframing this aspect of yourself if it currently feels like a burden today. You'll also hear how it's okay if this aspect of yourself does feel like a burden, and some emotions I experienced on my journey including grief as I came to terms with this way of being. By the end of this episode you'll walk away with a clear sense of what you can do when it comes to reframing your sensitivity, and even some steps you can take. If you already embrace your sensitivity today, you'll be able to take this framework to continue to apply to your life as you discover more and more gifts that lie along side the sensitive way of being.

  • Energy "Blocks"

    Energy "Blocks"
    Sep 20 2023

    Maybe you've said it before, or maybe not, but can our energy actually become "blocked"?


    This episode dives into the nuance of this question and discusses language and beliefs as a way to support us on our individual paths. Whether we're talking about energy blocks, chakra blocks, manifestation blocks, or even the universe blocking us, we may be implying that we are not complete and whole *today*, at least not until those blocks are addressed and removed. But is this true?


    My role as an energy worker is to redirect people back to their own truth and ability to create change, and I find that many of my clients come to me with reported "blocks". You'll hear a supportive description of energy and the way it moves through your body and you'll also be encouraged to reflect and find the truth inside of you for the language that feels best.


    Come say Hi on Instagram and let me know if this is something you've thought about before, or not!
