In this episode, I'm inviting you beneath the surface of burnout to explore what I call relational burnout—the deeper energetic and emotional patterns that quietly drain us long before we officially "hit the wall." Together, we'll trace burnout back to its true roots: the relationships that shape how we give, receive, and restore our energy. You'll hear how this exploration unfolded for me while writing Unstuck Yourself: Thrive Beyond Burnout and Discover Your True Purpose—and how it revealed not just my habits of overdoing, but the subtle ways I'd disconnected from myself in the name of being good, helpful, or strong. This conversation is an invitation to look beyond patterns of external over-DOing and ask: what part of me have I been abandoning in the name of trying to be enough, be seen, or fill some other gaps in my life? When we begin to repair our relationships—with ourselves, our bodies, life itself, and the people we are closes with—our energy starts to flow again. We remember that boundaries are sacred, that empathy doesn't require depletion, and that the way we care for ourselves teaches the world how to love us back. ✨ Tune in to remember: your energy is sacred, your needs are not negotiable, and your presence—rooted and replenished—is one of the most generous gifts you can offer.

When you think of activism, what comes to mind? Protests? Petitions? Big, bold gestures of resistance? While those forms of activism are vital, there's another revolution happening in quieter ways — in how we show up in our everyday lives. In this episode, we explore embodied activism — the idea that our healing, our relationships, and the way we move through the world can be one of the most powerful forms of collective change. Together, we'll dive into: Why personal transformation isn't selfish, but a ripple of impact that changes the collective. How the energy we carry in our bodies and relationships contributes to (or shifts) the larger cultural field. How embodying the values we want for the world begins with small, unglamorous daily personal choices. A real life story of how simply carrying ourselves with presence and openness can inspire and uplift others. This conversation is an invitation to reframe how you see your contribution to the world. You don't always need a megaphone or a title to make a difference. Your embodied wholeness — your posture, your presence, your choices, your love — is activism in action. ✨ Tune in to remember: you matter, your energy matters, and the way you live is a quiet revolution with ripple effects far beyond what you may ever see.

The ripples grow stronger together. 💛
Sometimes life moves in dog years—fast, wild, and packed with initiations. After a two-year pause, Magical Humaning is returning with a tender, truthy, all-the-feels catch-up on what's unfolded, what cracked open, and what's being created now. This episode is an honest look at living the "both/and": seasons that were devastating and liberating, griefy and grace-filled—where endings and beginnings braided together. I share how I navigated a stretch that felt like a life-quake (think: relationship transitions, a scary car accident, unexpected opportunities, and the ongoing practice of surrender) and what it taught me about purpose, alignment, and letting life love you… even when it's messy. Here's what's inside: the "two years in dog years" chapter—why I stepped back and why I'm back now surrender in real time (not the Instagram version): what it looked like in my body, business, and relationships holding the holy both-and: divorce alongside deep devotion, trauma alongside unexpected magic, fear alongside fierce hope how I chose gentler metrics of success (nervous system, joy, resonance) over performative hustle the surprising invitations that arrived when I stopped muscling and started listening How understanding my human design helped me meet this chapter of challenge with greater compassion and purpose If you're in a season of recalibration or reinvention, I made this one for you. May it remind you that pauses can be portals, endings can be medicine, and you're allowed to build a life that fits the you you've become. Let's stay connected!

In this episode we're continuing the journey of unpacking the 5 Human Design TYPES. As we explore these last three types, we share our own understandings of: *The Divine gifts (the unique magic!) of each type *The conditioned shadows (where culture can teach these types away from their authentic gifts) *The emotions to look for that can point to alignment AND misalignment (because "shoulds" can take us out of alignment pretty easily) *The aura of each (how the unique energy system of each type interacts with the world. . . and how it can feel to others) We explore those key points as well as offering some sprinklings of our signature quirkiness, personal experiences and perspectives from our own time swimming in the realm of Human Design & deconditioning.

This week we're officially diving into the Human Design pool, and I'm bringing my friend and radical magic collaborator Laura Cardwell along to play! In this episode: *We share our unique, yet similar, paths of resistance AND love of the Human Design realm. For both of us it was a push-pull experience. * We discuss the overwhelm that's VERY common when starting the journey of learning about Human Design. . . and how we've navigated it ourselves. * We explore the embodiment aspect of deconditioning work and how we use this archetypal tool to play at the intersection of energy medicine AND more conscious perspective shifts. * We lovingly rant about the intellectualization of the Human Design field and the need to take this work out of the ego swirls of the head and into the heart. . . to really begin to LIVE our unique design. * We talk about the need to slow down, to practice patience and to really give space for the deconditioning process to "land" in our bodies and nervous systems. True deconditioning isn't quick fix transformation, it's lasting, sustainable empowerment, ease and magic. * And, of course, we sprinkle in some quirks and tidbits about how we've learned to navigate our friendship and business collaborations through the lens of our own designs. (hint: it's WAY easier!) This is only the beginning of a series on Human Design, so if you're a newbie, welcome! And if you've already been swimming in the realm of Human Design, then we hope our take on it will add something new to your journey!

Life has a way of making sure we receive the lessons we NEED, and not just the lessons we WANT. It does this by showing us the same or similar patterns, people, and energies over and over again. . . sometimes even in different "costumes" and contexts. This episode is all about how to gracefully, curiously and compassionately navigate those cringey, uncomfortable and wound-y chapters of life that most of us would prefer to avoid. Here's the good news: There ARE approaches that make them far easier, more healing, more empowering. . . and believe it or not, even magical!. . . and THAT is exactly what I'm sharing this week! We've got a LOT of planets doing the retrograde dance right now, so I share what reflection they're inviting us into (in my own "I'm not an astrologer" sort of way), and I also share some of my favorite tips for navigating any another flavor of unexpected "completion tour" that shows up in your life. We can fear these chapters or we can meet them eye to eye with intention and grace. . . and when we learn to really BE with them, life tends to get a LOT more peaceful. Trust me.

What does surrendered living really look like? How do we practice leaning into trust, even when it's scary, painful, or kicks our wounds? What does it really feel like to choose a life of conscious deconditioning? How do we honor our very real nervous system responses to uncomfortable life experiences while still choosing alignment with empowering truth? What does it mean to "soften into our power?" What practices can we use to navigate the battle between our conditioned egos and Divine guidance? THESE are only some of the things Chris Rinaldi, Reiki master and therapist, and I explore in this episode and we're excited to share our conversation with YOU!

Our brains are designed to look for what's wrong, which often calls in more of that. Dominant culture has trained us to orient to a sense of scarcity, which creates limiting beliefs around what is and isn't possible. But a central part of making real deal magic is training your brain to get beyond those things, to look for sparkly bits of synchronicity, kindness, support, abundance and MAGIC. . . every day. What we focus on inevitably starts to expand in our lives. Which is why I'm sharing the details of MY magic making practice! Tune in and get the scoop on how to create your very own!
Today I'm joined by Nina Everflow. Nina is an e-learning expert who supports leaders across large and small organizations in developing meaningful learning environments for long-term impact and change. Her passion for personal transformation guides her unique approach to building learning environments inclusive of diverse people, places and platforms. In this episode, we explore. . . *Why community is essential if we want to be "bridge builders" committed to embodying the "new way" *How real, vulnerable, highly intimate and authentically human community is a powerful form of activism that creates far reaching ripples of change *Viewing necessary change connected to systems of oppression as both a social and political problem AND a human consciousness issue *Shifting from our conditioned expectations around independence toward reclaiming our inherently human tendency toward connection and interdependence *Coming home to the body as a guide toward truth, reclaimed full-spectrum humanity, shifts in consciousness and embodied activism *How daily choices in our relationships and businesses can be powerful forms of embodied activism and an investment in the world we DESIRE instead of the world we LEARNED to consent to.

I'm thrilled to be joined by Cheri Honeycutt for a fab-o conversation! In this episode. . . *"We define The Velvet Rut" (or as I call it, the velvet ditch) - What it is and how we all can get stuck in it. *We explore the conditioned stories about being rescued. . . instead of rooting into personal power. *We discuss the concept of giving fewer f*cks about the wrong things so that we can give WAY more about the purpose-full things that will take us where we actually want to go! *And we share parts of our own journeys to make this whole conversation real - because EVERYONE navigates some version of a soft and alluring (velvety) uncomfortable "comfort zone". . . including US!!!

Full permission. . . what does that even mean?! Well, THAT'S what we're exploring in this week's episode, folks! In today's episode we explore: *What I mean when I talk about choosing to practice "full permission" expression - and how it IS NOT some sort of reckless, selfish approach to life that requires you to not care about others. *Why a commitment to full permission living is a radical practice of embodied activism (hint: because it fiercely challenges conditioning!) *How to actually begin to explore your authentic Self that lives beneath who you learned you "should be" *How small acts of permission and creative expression pave the way toward more embodied truth. *The difference between authentic pleasure and bypassing (one is rooted in alignment and the other is rooted in avoidance) *And I share my current working definition of play and some of the core aspects (according to Dr. Stuart Brown) that supported me in being LESS (overly) "responsible" and MORE playful.

I'm so excited to be joined by Jessie Kneeland on today's episode! Jessi (they/them) is a body image coach, TEDx speaker, and author of the book Body Neutral, which is dedicated to helping folks overcome suffering from body image issues by stripping away the power and significance of their body/appearance so that they can connect more deeply to their worth as a person, through embracing body neutrality. In this episode we talk about. . . *How body positivity came in with great intentions, but has had some unfortunate unintended impact *How connecting with and appreciating the wisdom of the body in more unconditional ways can pave the way to all sorts of healing, empowerment and magic *The power of just LISTENING to the body without forcing an agenda. *And how redefining our relationship to our bodies may be one of the most powerful forms of activism we can practice! This one is JUICY and was a JOY to create!

Big visions, offerings and leaps of faith call us toward deeper alignment. .. but, most folks aren't talking about how to ALIGN, they're telling us how to "make it happen." Around here, we believe that forcing is overrated and stepping into aligned flow is a MUCH more enjoyable and inspired path. In this episode I share my step by step guide toward building and practicing energetic alignment to support the things that matter most in your life. We explore. . . *Creating SPACE for big vision, intuitive curiosity, and creating space for big visions to evolve. *Aligning TIMING by tuning into your intuition and the collective cycles and seasons. *Practicing energetic INTEGRITY and the necessary process of growth, healing and "becoming" by committing to EMBODYING the essence of the offering/vision/possibility yourself. *How to hold ALIGNED ENERGY while inviting folks in during a specific launch or manifestation period. Trust me, if you do these practices before taking massive action, things will flow a LOT more smoothly! Let's stay connected! Find me at: meghanomalleycoaching.com Or on Instagram @meghanomalleymagic
Episode 28: Embodied Deconditioning - Learning to work WITH the nervous system to make magic We live in a culture of mental focus, but SO much deconditioning work happens in the BODY, so this episode is all about exploring how to embrace the nervous system as a guide and partner in the process. When we talk about partnering with the nervous system, we're actually entraining our body to build capacity in some way. We build capacity for things that we decide matter - for our well-being, for our future, to move toward our greatest visions in life. In this episode, I talk about. . . *Expanding capacity for pleasure and ease *Teaching the nervous system to be with "necessary discomfort" *How to expand our ability to be in states of both stillness and "not knowing" *And the tricky dance between protective independence and co-creative interdependence and connection When we learn to partner with the body, to honor where it is and lovingly guide it toward when we want to go. . . aligned magic begins to unfold.

Sometimes the most obvious things are the most easily overlooked, which is why today's episode is all about decoding and unpacking the meaning of some very commonly used words in the personal and spiritual growth realm - ALIGNMENT and MANIFESTATION If you aren't swimming in the sea of growth every day these words may feel both interesting. . . AND wildly vague or unclear. In this episode I talk about. . . *MY definitions and understanding of each of these words *What they ARE and what they are NOT *HOW they are both PRACTICED and EXPERIENCED *And how my favorite archetypal tool, Human Design, supports alignment, deconditioning and magic making. *And as always, some real talk so that you leave feeling affirmed in the inherent messiness and humanity of it all.

Woo hoo! It's our final stop on the "unpacking the radical magic roadtrip" podcast series! And THIS episode is a game changer! Magical, intuitive and intentional yet surrendered co-creation as a daily practice and way of life will literally change EVERYTHING. Truly. In this episode: *I discuss what I mean by co-creation *I explore how co-creation as a practice is both inherently receptive AND proactive *I share why building a life and daily practices centered around magical co-creation is important, how it can enhance your life and path of greatest alignment, and what gifts it can bring. *I also share some of the very human ego blocks and conditioning that I've found can get in the way of magical co-creation so that you can spot them when they pop up (because they WILL!) *And I share some ways you can start practicing co-creation with the universe right now. *And finally I share some of my favorite magical stories from my road trip. Because when you open to Divine collaboration. . . well, sometimes the magic that unfolds is hard to believe! Let's stay connected! Find me at: meghanomalleycoaching.com
In episode 2 of this three part series, we're diving into all sorts of juicy gems of awareness and fun stories that emerged during my cross country roadtrip that was guided by intuition and connections along the way. In this episode: *I discuss how FOCUS is a powerful form of spell casting and magic making. Aaaaand how it's actually our responsibility to stay curious about what we're really focusing on so that we aren't feeding the stories we don't actually want. *I share about my commitment to challenge my ongoing allergy to EXPANDED and truly RECIPROCAL RECEIVERSHIP. Y'all, I've come a LONG way, but I knew I still had some blocks and blindspots, so. . . I practiced! A lot! *I explore the different flavors of RECEIVING. Hint: It's not just gifts and service from other people. It can also be a practice of receiving signs, gifts, beauty and direction from the Universe. *I share about my own ongoing practice of trading my brain's need for certainty for my soul's desire to play in the playground of wonder-full not knowing. Possibility emerges when we make space for the story that lives beyond our control-flavored desires, you know. Magic often wants to show us the dream beyond the dream. Stay tuned for the next episode where we'll build on this practice of wonder and unpack what I call "magical co-creation"! Let's stay connected! Find me at: meghanomalleycoaching.com
I'm back from my magical two month sabbatical and am SO excited to share the insights and magical stories with you! In this first episode (of the three part series): *I share with you WHY I went on this minimally planned cross country roadtrip. *I share HOW I honored the inconvenient intuitive tugs to do it, in spite of LOTS of logical reasons why I "shouldn't". Bottom line: I knew I needed to test drive my magical theories in real life, it was time to feel what embodied freedom felt like in day to day choices AND I knew I needed to create a container to rewild my instincts . . .you know, without all of the to do lists and daily "shoulds" that can cloud my intuition. *I share how every single day I practiced LISTENING within, ACTIVE SURRENDER and "open palmed" FAITH to pave the way toward magical possibilities and highest good alignment. *I also share some fun stories, because truly this experience was SO MAGICAL! Join me in the next two episodes as I continue to unpack this radically magical roadtrip! Let's stay connected! Find me at: meghanomalleycoaching.com
This episode is a love note from me to you. It's personal, honest and about things that are happening in my own life. . . in real time. TLDR: I'm doing a big brave thing. . . I'm taking an extended time out and time off from my business. . . for the FIRST TIME EVER! Curious? Keep reading. In this episode I talk about: *How I came to my intuitive (and illogical) decision to take a two month sabbatical this winter while my home life is already in a state of necessary destabilization. *What deeply aligned intuitive hits feel like in the body (at least in MY body) *The powerful and at times wobbly practice of both sacred GIVING and courageous RECEIVING *The importance of "letting it all go" sometimes in order to make space for the "NEW" to flow in (and how I'm doing this with my business right now) *How I'm choosing to practice embodied freedom during my sabbatical (hint: it's a sort of radical magic road show!) and how the narratives we carry affect our sense of freedom in life. *How our level of energetic output must be balanced with our level of receivership if we are to avoid burnout or having our big beautiful fully-embodied service in the world stifled. There's a LOT in this episode and I hope it speaks to your heart and your unique journey of navigating grit and polishing your inner brilliance. I'll see you in 2023!
