If you haven't heard, "should" is a dirty word. It's dripping in shame and fueled by judgment + lack. It's also a sneaky word that tends to come in extra hot at the end of the year. "Should" will get you places you don't actually want to go. You'll end up saying yes to things that aren't for you and be left wondering why you feel disconnected. When we're "shoulding" on ourselves, we're judging ourselves. And when we live by the "should's," we step out of integrity with who we are and live life by someone else's rules. In this episode, I talk about: How the "should's" pull us out of presence + drag us into lack  Letting go of the attachment to time How making decisions from the "should's" can affect your health + well-being Where your power actually lies This episode is a middle finger to the "should's" and an activation for anyone feeling a bit of lack creeping in, or for those simply wanting to amplify their belief.

In this episode, I sit down with Emily Feikls, the founder, foodie, and force behind ATX Cake Bae. The first time I got my hands on a Cake Bae dessert, I couldn't believe that it was gluten + dairy free (honestly shook to my very core). Emily brings insane flavor, innovation, and intentionality into the world of desserts. And while we get into all the sweet stuff that ATX Cake Bae has to offer, we also talk about navigating the resistance of those "down bad" moments and the significance of stepping into the chamber of growth when following your passion + building a business. We also discuss: How she organically turned her passion into purpose The self worth journey of building a business The importance of "pockets of silence" + being in tune with yourself for your business Knowing your worth + connecting to your mission The power of aligned community + authentic connections This episode is a reminder that nourishment goes beyond food. Nourishment also looks like regulating your nervous system, being intentional with your inner circle, and giving yourself that sacred space to reflect and receive.

Simplicity is potent, yet sometimes we forget. We tend to overcomplicate, overthink, and overlook the simple practices that bring us back home to ourselves. In this episode, I talk about how even the smallest practices can anchor you into ease, how coming back to the things you used to love (especially your favorites as a kid) can shift your energy, and how returning to simplicity brings you back into presence (where everything is possible).  This is your reminder that when life feels chaotic or overwhelming, simplicity is your reset.

Mindfulness coach and public speaker, Isidora Camus, joins me for this soul sister chat. In this episode, we dive into the tender process of stumbling into surrender, what it really feels like to face your own inner turmoil, and what's on the other side of doing so. This conversation is a heart-to-heart where we take you with us as we discuss learning how to be in the discomfort of the in-between, what it means to move from effort to effortless, and how to soften into what's unfolding.

In this episode, I talk about how trust is the ultimate glow up. Trust makes you HOTTER. And I'm talking about the kind of trust that's earned through sitting in the darkness and discomfort: the doubts, the fears, the lack, and the limitation. When you've met those parts of yourself and then choose to fully lean into trust, your energy hits different. Your presence becomes potent. Trust is what happens when you stop marinating in fear and start moving with certainty. So if you've been gripping, doubting, or spiraling, this episode is your reminder to come back into trust.

In this episode, I talk about how God is the ultimate architect + that his algorithm ALWAYS pops off. Even when you find yourself in moments (or seasons) of doubt, you're always being guided. Every experience, delay, and "rejection" was by design, perfectly architected to redirect you toward something higher + more aligned. When we look back, we can see how the "rejections", plot twists, and closed doors were part of a bigger blueprint, all working in perfect divine order. Let this episode be your reminder that the detours and delays are by design. They're sent to teach us, help mold us, and sometimes redirect us... and redirection = upgrade.  To explore 1:1 Activation + Transformational Work, click here

Everyone loves to talk about their icks but let's get real about the biggest ick: lack + limitation. In this episode, I get into why negativity feels so gross + what it's trying to tell us. Have you noticed how icky + shitty you feel when you spiral into limiting thoughts? It's your body rejecting them. You give yourself the ick because your soul knows that those thoughts aren't true. Every time you dip into lack, fear, or comparison, your body contracts, showing you where you aren't free (aka where lack is living + holding you hostage). Let this episode be your reminder that lack is a liar and curiosity + exploration will set you free.  To explore 1:1 Activation + Transformational Work, click here

For a long time, I felt like I was living a double life Hannah Montana style. (And yes, I once dressed up as her at a college frat party, so clearly the signs were there.) On the outside, I played the "normal" role people expected but behind the scenes, I was deep into doing the work... energy healing, identity work, breathwork, ancestral healing, etc. At the time, I felt like I had to hide this side of myself and entered my Hannah Montana double life, which ended up creating a lot of dissonance internally. In this episode, I share what it looked like to finally stop compartmentalizing, own my gifts, and let my authentic self take the stage.

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend + the It Girl of skin, Tess Zolly a licensed esthetician, double-certified acne specialist, and founder of TessaSkin.

In this episode, I'm sharing my practices, mindset shifts, and energetic resets that have helped me (and continue to help me) move through anxiety spirals. When the world outside of us feels dark, heavy, and chaotic, it's essential that we take time to reconnect... to come back to ourselves and come back to our hearts.  You'll hear me talk about:  Why anxiety feels amplified when collective energy is heavy/intense How to anchor back into the present moment (even when your mind wants to spiral) The importance of working with the subconscious mind to release and transmute emtotions, old stories, and fear If you're interested in joining me on 9/21 at 4pm CST for a Transformational Breathwork journey, please send me an email at hello@ericareilly.com. 

In this episode, I share a story from my travels last week and let me tell you, travel really is a portal. It's not just about going places, it's about who you become along the way. And let's be real, travel brings up some major resistance found in the form of delays, weird energy, and moments of utter chaos. And in those moments, you get to decide which version of you is going to show up. Will it be the reactive version of you or the expanded version of you? Every time you meet resistance in a new way, you step into a portal and activate a new version of yourself.  For more magic and activations: ericareilly.com

Have you been feeling it lately? There has been a lot of shifting happening lately and you've likely been feeling more a bit more emotional and maybe have had some old stories, limiting beliefs, and doubts creep up. Many are on the edge of a big leap into their next chapter right now and while this wasn't the topic that I had orignally planned to talk about this week, it feels like a potent reminder for all of us right now as we get ready to swing BIG into our next era. xx Erica For more activations: ericareilly.com

In this episode, I'm joined by Shana Rehwald, founder of the Me-est Me Journal, which was created from her own "hard restart" season of self-discovery. After realizing that the life she was living was no longer a fit, Shana turned inward and excavated the patterns that were keeping her in a loop. She then took those same questions that helped her to get to know herself and launched the Me-est Me Journal to help others reconnect + navigate their own transitional seasons in life.  We chat about: How her journey of self discovery led to creating the Me-est Me Journal  How reconnecting with yourself can fuel your confidence + self trust The strategy that helped land the Me-est Me Journal into Urban Outfitters What it feels like to be energetically pushed out of places  Tips on how to overcome the fear of being seen The magic of authenticity and how being your "Me-est Me" makes you magnetic AF https://meestme.com/ Instagram: @shanarehwald

The energy has been shifting in a major way (you may have been feeling it this week!). We'll get into all of the current energetics including the recent spikes in the Schumann Resonance (aka the earth's frequency) and what that means. Hint: it's giving LFG energy.  In this episode, I talk about the boldest move you can make right now: choosing you... and chat through some examples of what that could look like.  To step into your It Girl Summer (Forever), click here To explore 1:1 Activation + Transformational Work, click here

Two years ago, I made a decision that changed everything for me. In this episode, I'm reflecting on the moment that led me to step away from alcohol, what these past two years living alcohol-free have revealed to me, and how making that choice brought me into truly living my best life. Btw this episode is not an anti-alcohol PSA. It's simply me keeping it real with you and taking an honest look at my own journey… the highs, the lows, and everything in between. If you've ever wondered what might open up if you just let go, this one is for you.

What happens when you stop outsourcing + start listening to your intuition?

In this episode, we're diving into about what it really means to live your sparkliest It Girl Summer and one of its biggest blocks: judgment.  Because the more you judge (yourself + others) the more you disconnect from your own power. Judgment pulls you out of alignment and blocks you from moving + living as your most magnetic + maximum It Girl self.  In this episode, I talk about: My past personal judgments How judgment creates energetic blocks + keeps us playing small How to shift out of judgment + into expanded awareness An early invite into a 22 day It Girl Activation that's coming soon!
