Episode 87: Your Inner Teenager Wants Tacos

Send us Fan MailDenise sits with coach Emma Hicks to follow the thread from people-pleasing and codependency to sovereignty, secure attachment, and a relationship that could withstand honest change. The story moves through retreats, ignored intuition, a formal separation, and the surprising freedom that arrives when you stop trying so hard and start listening to your body, your boundaries, and your breath.We get specific about what “doing the work” looks like. Emma maps anxious attachment in the moment—a text arrives, the inner teenager says yes, and the mature self pauses long enough to answer from truth. We unpack reparenting in practice, from giving your inner child space to moving energy instead of endlessly analyzing the past. Denise grounds the ideas with a real boundary win: choosing rest and a deadline over a fun dinner, saying no without over-explaining, and protecting a nervous system that no longer runs on scarcity. It’s a masterclass in clean yes and no, built on a living vision of peace rather than perfection.About Emma:Emma Hicks is a coach who helps women stop performing and start living from truth—reconnecting to their intuition and building soul-rich lives, relationships, and leadership.Find Emma:https://www.instagram.com/hicks__emma/CINEMATIC SUMMER 🎞️Emma's 10-Week Live Signature Program May 27 – July 29, 2026Are you at a threshold in your life?
