Episode 29: Lunar New Year, Solar Eclipse & the Courage to Want More

In this episode of The Glow Up Revolution, Megan Winkler explores the energetic portal created by the Lunar New Year and the Solar Eclipse and why this week may be amplifying your desire in ways that feel both exciting and destabilizing.Desire is often framed as indulgent, reckless, or unsafe, especially for high-achieving women who were taught to prioritize stability, gratitude, and responsibility over wanting more. But what if desire isn’t dangerous? What if it’s directional?Megan unpacks the difference between desire, impulse, and fantasy, and explains how nervous system regulation plays a critical role in how we interpret what we want. Rather than making impulsive, life-altering decisions under eclipse energy, she offers a grounded framework for listening to desire without burning everything down.This episode is a reminder that new beginnings don’t require chaos; they require honesty. And sometimes honoring desire looks like a 5% shift, not a dramatic reinvention.If something inside you has been quietly asking for more, this conversation will help you listen: safely, steadily, and strategically.Hang out with Megan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsmeganwinkler/Join the Patreon for BTS content & more: https://patreon.com/theglowupcircle
