The Feel Good Nakd Podcast for Women

Have you ever pushed so hard to become "enough?" Going for all the external achievements, those goals and milestones? That's where this episode begins — with my own spiritual healing journey, one that changed everything I thought I knew about self-worth, healing, and power. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Why I Finally Shared My Spiritual Healing Journey 03:15 – From Feeling Invisible to Chasing Worth 07:40 – Saying Yes to Ayahuasca 10:55 – The Moment Everything Shifted 16:45 – Integrating the Healing Journey   For most of my life, I was driven by the need to prove myself — to be someone, to never go back to feeling small or unseen. And for a while, that drive worked… until it didn't. It left me exhausted, disconnected, and numb. I'm sharing something I never thought I would: my ayahuasca experience — what led me there, what I saw, and how it cracked me open in ways I didn't know I needed. This isn't a story about plant medicine.  It's about what happens when you finally stop pushing and start listening — when you surrender instead of hustle. It's about remembering your deeper self — the one that's always been powerful and whole. Inside the podcast:  THE DRIVE TO PROVE: How chasing self-worth through achievement is a losing battle REMEMBERING YOUR POWER: Finding the strength that's always been inside of you LETTING GO TO HEAL: Why real spiritual healing often begins when you stop trying to fix yourself and start trusting yourself instead. You don't need ayahuasca to begin your own healing journey — just a willingness to look within and listen.  Listen to next:Ep 323 Spiritual Awakening with Paola Sellaro

Have you ever struggled with how to meditate when your mind feels too loud, too anxious, or just won't slow down? In this solo episode, I'm sharing what actually happened when I spent seven days at a monastery — and why the experience completely changed how I understand meditation. I didn't find instant peace. I met my own restlessness, overthinking, and discomfort first. I even got the flu! But that's exactly where the learning began.  If you've struggled with how to start meditation, or felt like meditation for anxiety just doesn't work for you, this episode offers a gentler way in. We talk about simple meditation techniques that support your nervous system instead of forcing stillness, and the real benefits of meditation that go far beyond relaxation. This is about learning how to sit with yourself without needing to fix or change what you find there.   Key Moments 02:12 — Arriving at the monastery: meeting my busy mind instead 08:40 — How to start meditation when stillness feels uncomfortable 16:05 — Meditation for anxiety: why nothing needed to be controlled 23:30 — Meditation techniques I learned from living alongside a monk 31:10 — The deeper benefits of meditation    Listen for… a softer, more honest way to meditate — one that helps you feel less at war with your thoughts and more at home in your own mind. How to meditate without trying to empty your mind or "do it right" What seven days with a monk revealed about anxiety and overthinking How to start meditation even if you've struggled to stick with it before The emotional and nervous system benefits of meditation  Meditation techniques that bring calm through understanding, not control     Resources Mentioned…  

What if tapping for anxiety could calm your nervous system faster than meditation, affirmations, or journaling? If you've tried all the "right" tools to manage anxiety — meditation, breathwork, affirmations — and still feel restless, overwhelmed, or stuck in your head, this episode offers a body-based alternative.  Tapping for anxiety, also known as emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping), is a form of somatic healing that uses gentle tapping on meridian points to support nervous system healing and release stored emotional stress. In this episode of Feel Good Nakd, we explore why tapping works especially well for women who struggle to sit still, quiet the mind, or force calm — and how working with the body can create real relief. About the Guest I'm joined by Sinéad Stewart, a certified EFT practitioner who helps people regulate their nervous systems and release stored emotional patterns through tapping.  Sinéad shares how she discovered EFT during a period of intense anxiety, why it became the one practice that truly stuck, and how she now guides others through tapping in a grounded, accessible way — especially for those who feel resistant to traditional meditation. Key Moments 00:00 – Why tapping for anxiety works when meditation doesn't 04:30 – What emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping) actually is 08:45 – Nervous system healing through somatic touch 12:10 – Releasing stored emotions from the body 15:30 – Guided tapping for anxiety, fear, and uncertainty   Listen For… A calming, practical way to regulate anxiety that doesn't require forcing positivity, silencing your thoughts, or bypassing emotions — just your body, your breath, and a few minutes of intentional release.   In this holistic healing podcast episode: How tapping for anxiety supports real-time nervous system regulation Why EFT tapping works when mindset tools fall short The role of somatic healing in releasing stored emotional stress How emotional freedom technique supports long-term nervous system healing A guided tapping practice you can return to whenever anxiety spikes This episode is especially helpful if you experience overthinking, anxiety, fear of the unknown, or feel disconnected from your body despite trying traditional anxiety tools.

What would it feel like to try one month without social media — no scrolling, no posting, no constant reaching for your phone? In this episode of Feel Good Nakd, I share what happened when I stepped away from social media and allowed my body and nervous system to calm down. This wasn't a diehard social media detox. I wasn't trying to prove anything or walk away forever and I'm not trying to persuade you to leave your digital life behind. Instead, this is an honest look at social media addiction, overstimulation, and the subtle ways our bodies stay overwhelmed, anxious and unable to fully rest. In this self-help podcast episode: What one month without social media can reveal  Why overstimulation keeps your nervous system unhinged The subtle signs of social media addiction  Easier quit social media tips  How to create a healthier relationship with social media So if you've ever felt wired but tired, constantly restless or like your phone keeps pulling you away from yourself, this conversation will help you understand what's really happening — and how to relate to social media in a healthier way.  Listen for a softer, more sustainable way to step back from social media — one that supports calm, presence, and a deeper sense of safety in your body.
