Episode 99:  Reflection, Reclamation & The Threshold of the Year of the SnakeIt’s the 99th episode of Return (!!!) and in perfect alignment, we’re closing out our nine year cycle just as we step into a new one. In this reflective, ritual-like conversation, Caitlan unpacks the numerology of a nine year — the year of completion, shedding, composting, and clearing — and reflects on what she’s learned, who she became, and what she’s consciously leaving behind.Inside, she shares her own roses + thorns in business and motherhood, how IFS + Human Design supported her through a year of deep transition, and invitations for you to reflect on your own nine-year cycle with journal prompts, parts work, and Human Design exploration.If you’re craving closure, clarity, or a gentle remembrance of who you became this year, let this episode guide you back to yourself.What You'll Learn in This Episode:What a 9 year means in numerology + why 2025 felt so intenseReflection prompts to meet the version of you this year shapedHow Caitlan used Human Design (4/6 profile) to build authentic connectionThe part she reclaimed through IFS — angerWhat she’s leaving behind, what she’s taking into the 1 yearRoses + thorns from both business + motherhoodWhy Episode 99 marks a threshold into visibility, magnetism, and creative fire 🔥Timestamps:02:00 — 05:30 | What a nine year is & why 2025 carried shedding energy06:00 — 09:45 | Reflection + journaling prompts for the nine year10:00 — 13:00 | Caitlan’s IFS revelation — working with anger & unburdening13:10 — 15:00 | Human Design experiments + being a 4/6 connector15:10 — 17:40 | What she’s leaving behind + tarot messages17:45 — 19:45 | What she’s bringing into 2026 — Queen of Wands energy19:50 — 25:30 | Roses + thorns: business, motherhood, expansion25:30 — 28:00 | Gratitude, becoming, completion + Episode 100 previewLinks & Resources:Try Return+ free for 7 days to access the full Return to Self SyllabusJoin Undefined (starts January 20, 2026) — Projectors, Manifestors & ReflectorsBook a Shifted Session (HD Reading + Integration)Last Year's Year in Review Podcast EpisodeThank you for 99 weeks of returning together — for listening, sharing, and witnessing this work as part of your own self-expression.
