In this soul-nourishing episode of Flip the Script with Vic, I sit down with the radiant and deeply grounded Raina Rose Williams — podcast host of The Lighthouse Within, retreat participant, coach, and luminous human inside and out.

This conversation is one I've been dreaming about, and it arrives at the perfect time. Together, they dive into:

✨ Healing the maiden
✨ Growing up too fast
✨ The weight of “you’re so mature for your age”
✨ Releasing emotional responsibility that was never ours
✨ Somatic healing, embodiment, and rebuilding trust with the body
✨ Inner critic work + what happens when you finally hear your higher self
✨ The fear of being “too much”… and the even bigger fear of being powerful
✨ Community, sisterhood, and what really happens at the Art of Unwinding Retreat
✨ What it means to be a lighthouse — for yourself first, and then for others

This episode is medicine for anyone navigating their healing journey, reconnecting to their joy, or learning how to take up space without apologizing.

Raina shares her personal path through depression, hyper-independence, people-pleasing, and the tender process of coming home to herself. I, of course, open up about my own childhood wounds, the maiden-to-mother transition, and the truth about what keeps so many women stuck.

Whether you’re a longtime listener or brand new to the pod, this conversation will leave you feeling more connected, more seen, and more rooted in the possibility of who you’re becoming.
