Carlene has questions about how to balance how she is investing her money and resources into herself for day-to-day well-being, as well as her business for long-term success. Carlene asked to remain private for this reading, but she did a lot of head nodding throughout her session and did enjoy talking through her questions and having new ideas to implement afterwards to help her. It was an honor having her trust and being able to read for her, and she was very patient with me since I was struggling with my annual dry winter cough at the time we recorded this episode. I’ve been blessed to live in southern Germany since 2017, but my lungs still miss the very humid east coast air of the U.S. where I grew up.

Megan has some great questions about being consistent with the value of her work for her coaching business where she helps women overcome anxiety and stress to improve their personal growth. It was such a pleasure speaking with Megan about her lived experiences and how these compare to unique patterns in her birth chart and it was refreshing to hear Megan’s honest reflections in the moment when discussing examples and details. We had such a fun conversation and were able to get really detailed and specific about new ways Megan can evolve and expand her business to continue helping other women thrive.

Romina has questions about money trauma, both personal and familial or inherited money trauma. She has several family members who experienced very challenging situations and she’s curious if these past events have created a type of karmic barrier that is part of why she’s unable to move forward financially, which turns out is very relevant regarding her deep desire to buy a home in the near future to represent external security and an external foundation for her life.
