What if you had access to guidance—not just in big decisions, but in quiet, everyday moments too?

In this episode, you’ll meet Alia Francisco: mother, mindset coach, yoga instructor, certified hypnotist, essential oil aficinado and founder of a Toronto-based doula collective. She’s also the heart behind her soul care practice, Manifest with Alia, and the creator of EmpowHER, a powerful mentorship program supporting girls in staying connected to their inner truth.

As you listen, you’ll be invited to reflect on the role of intuition in your own life—how you may have known something before you knew it, felt a quiet nudge, or sensed you were being guided. Alia shares stories from her childhood and early adulthood, including what it was like to be intuitive in a world that values logic, and how returning to her inner knowing transformed her life—from motherhood to mentorship.

You’ll also learn about:

• How to recognize your body’s subtle cues as intuitive guidance

• What it looks like to temporarily disconnect from your gifts—and how to return

• The intentional work EmpowHER is doing to support girls before self-doubt takes hold

• The sacred power of birthwork, and how to prepare for the unexpected

• Why your intuitive connection is already within you—and how to trust it

• Two stories where surrender and guidance made all the difference

Whether you’re navigating motherhood, healing, leadership, or simply curious about your purpose in life, this conversation invites you to trust yourself more deeply, honor the sacred within you, and enjoy the journey of living intuitively.
