After more than a year away from podcasting, I'm back, and not because I forced myself to be.In this reintroduction episode of Alive & Awake, I share the unexpected transformation that happened when I stopped striving, stopped creating from pressure, and got radically honest with myself about what I truly wanted, believed, and felt called to create.Over the past year, I experienced a profound spiritual expansion that challenged my beliefs, deepened my relationship with God, and completely changed the way I view purpose, feminine leadership, healing, and personal growth.In this episode, we explore:What happened during my year-long pauseThe difference between creating from pressure vs. inspirationDeepening your relationship with God and trusting your own pathWhy rest is often preparation, not punishmentThe power of radical honesty and self-trustMy renewed vision for The Alive & Awake PodcastIf you're in a season of transition, questioning your path, or feeling called toward something more aligned, I hope this conversation reminds you that the pause may be serving a purpose you can't yet see.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 A New Beginning & Radical Honesty1:24 Why I Stepped Away from the Podcast3:07 Rest, Integration & Feminine Creation3:57 The Lions Gate Expansion That Changed Everything5:04 Deepening My Relationship with God8:25 What I Learned From Questioning My Beliefs11:03 Trusting Your Own Spiritual Path13:52 Releasing Fear and Finding Freedom16:34 Why I Had to Get Honest With Myself20:20 Discovering My True Purpose21:02 The Difference Between Preparation and Punishment22:02 Who This Channel Is For Moving ForwardConnect with Alicia:Sign up for my newsletter for monthly tools and tips!Be a guest on the show: https://aliciakay.as.me/awakenwithaliciaWebsite: https://www.aliciakaycoaching.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aliciakaycoaching/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aliciakaycoachingYouTube: www.youtube.com/@aliciakaycoachingTrailer Music CreditAlis Reflective Soul, song “Howl” https://open.spotify.com/track/6FkSVtVl1FZwPRmTKAXLjp?si=401711feb98644d9
