When Your Body Knows Before Your Mind Does: Intuition, Energy & Coming Back Into Alignment with Vinni Taneja
Send us Fan MailWhat happens when you've achieved the success you thought you wanted, but your body, intuition, and soul are telling you something isn't right?In this episode of The ThriveWorthy Podcast, Alicia sits down with her friend and healer Vinni Taneja, founder of Chakra Wellness, for a deeply personal conversation about career reinvention, intuition, nervous system regulation, energy, and what it really means to come back into alignment.Alicia and Vinni share a fascinating parallel in their stories. Both spent decades building successful corporate HR careers and ultimately reached CHRO roles, something each once saw as the pinnacle of professional success. And separately, both came to realize that the lives they had worked so hard to build were no longer where they were meant to stay.Vinni shares what it was like to know for years that corporate life wasn't truly aligned for her, yet continue following the path she believed she was supposed to follow. Eventually, the signs became too loud to ignore.She left her executive role without a perfect plan, followed a long-standing pull to Nepal for yoga teacher training, and returned home ready to create Chakra Wellness.Together, Alicia and Vinni explore how our conditioning can disconnect us from what we actually want, why our bodies often recognize misalignment before our minds do, and how slowing down can help us hear the quieter voice of intuition.They also dive into the chakra system, simple practices for feeling more grounded and balanced, our relationship with energy, manifestation and gratitude, and why Vinni believes intuition is a skill we can strengthen with practice.And stay with the episode through the end, when Vinni guides you through a beautiful chakra-balancing meditation designed to help you feel calmer, more grounded, and reconnected to yourself.In This Episode• How conditioning can lead us toward careers and lives that look good but don't feel right• Vinni's journey from accounting and auditing to HR executive, healer, and entrepreneur• Reaching the pinnacle of your career and realizing it isn't where you're meant to be• The physical and nervous-system signals Vinni experienced when she was deeply out of alignment• The discomfort of moving from the familiar into a completely different way of living• Leaving corporate without a perfect plan and following the signs that led Vinni to Nepal• How to tell the difference between the louder voice of ego and the quieter voice of intuition• Why Vinni considers intuition a skill that becomes stronger the more we use it• Chakras 101 and how Vinni thinks about energetic imbalance• Simple practices for coming back into balance through breath, meditation, yoga, nourishment, and self-awareness• Vinni's perspective on manifestation, gratitude, and dreaming bigger• A guided meditation through the seven main chakrasTimestamps04:53 – Vinni's story: intuition, childhood conditioning, and choosing a traditional career path08:01 – Reaching the top of the corporate ladder while knowing the path wasn't truly aligned10:31 – When Vinni's body and nervous system began signaling: “abort mission”15:24 – Leaving corporate and Vinni's “Eat, Pray, Love” journey to Nepal18:32 – Realizing how deeply the corporate pace was still living in her nervous system21:46 – Walking away without a plan, asking for a sign, and finding her way to Nepal27:33 – How to trust your body, intuition, and the path you can't fully see yet29:32 – Ego vs. intuition and why intuition gets stronger with practice33:02 – Chakras 101: recognizing where you may be out of alignment37:24 – Practical ways to come back into balance42:04 – Energy, sensitivity, and the energetic exchanges happening around us45:25 – Manifestation, gratitude, and why Vinni says to dream bigger50:39 – Guided chakra-balancing meditation59:51 – Vinni's closing wisdom: emotions, slowing down, and making time for meditation1:01:50 – “I can't meditate”: why your mind doesn't need to be completely quietA Guided Practice for YouBeginning at approximately 50:39, Vinni leads listeners through a guided meditation moving through the seven main chakras.Through breath, visualization, color, and affirmations, she guides you from the root chakra through the crown, with intentions around feeling safe and grounded, making space for creativity, connecting with your wisdom, giving and receiving love, speaking your authentic truth, trusting your intuition, and connecting with your higher self.Come back to this part of the episode anytime you need a few minutes to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.About VinniVinni Taneja is the founder of Chakra Wellness and a former corporate HR executive who left her traditional career to pursue work centered around healing, wellness, and spiritual growth.Through Chakra Wellness, Vinni brings together modalities including intuitive guidance, yoga, meditation, Reiki, sound healing, chakra balancing, breathwork, and other healing practices designed to help people reconnect with mind, body, and spirit.Connect with Vinni:Visit Chakra Wellness to learn more about Vinni, her services, events, retreats, and healing offerings.If this conversation stirred something in you, let's connect!💫 Book a FREE Career Clarity Call ✨ Join the ThriveWorthy community Free Meditation Bundle: If you're one of those people who says, “I can't meditate,” this. is for you.

Send us Fan MailNavigating Uncertainty & Living Unscripted with Sheila EggertWhat if uncertainty wasn’t something to fear, but an invitation to become more of who you truly are?Alicia Dee sits down with transformational leadership coach & consultant, author, and TEDx speaker Sheila Eggert to explore living “unscripted,” beyond expectations and the roles we’ve been taught to play. Sheila shares her path of reinvention, leaving corporate life, navigating divorce and a breast cancer diagnosis, and following an inner knowing that led her to begin again. Together they discuss meeting challenges with curiosity instead of fear, and how transformation begins when we trust ourselves.In This Episode, You’ll Discover:• Fear vs. intuition – Fear is loud and urgent; intuition is quiet and steady.• Why familiar feels safe – Even when it no longer fits, the brain prefers what it knows.• Curiosity as a doorway – Shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What am I meant to learn?”• Nervous system support – Change begins with feeling safe enough to listen.• Releasing old identities – Stepping out of scripts written by family, culture, and career.• Healing and meaning – Choosing openness over resistance in life’s hardest moments.• Small aligned steps – Transformation grows through consistent micro-choices.Key Takeaways• You are not your thoughts, you are the observer who can choose them.• Real safety comes from authenticity, not control.• Challenges can become portals for growth when met with curiosity.• Rest and self-care are strategies for resilience and leadership.• The deeper question is not “What should I do?” but “Who am I becoming?”Curious about working with ThriveWorthy?

The Stories We Tell Ourselves - Unlocking Old Narratives
Send us Fan MailWhy does meaningful change feel so hard, even when we know we want it? In this episode, Alicia Dee explores one of the biggest reasons we stay stuck: the stories we tell ourselves. Alicia breaks down how our brains are naturally wired to protect us, how our old narratives can feel like facts, but rarely are the full story, and how to widen the lens so you can see new possibilities. You’ll learn a practical “balcony” technique to separate facts from the story you’re layering on top, and a powerful gratitude reframe Alicia calls catching life going right to shift your nervous system, your mindset, and your ability to move forward.If you’re entering a new season and feeling the pull toward something different, this episode will help you shift your thinking and reconnect with what’s possible.In This Episode, We CoverWhy change can feel scary and why it’s often our "story", not reality, that keeps us stuckHow our brains are wired toward negativity to protect us, and how that can keep us “small”The “camera lens” metaphor: what happens when you’re zoomed in too tightly on one belief. It may be time to widen the aperture to see a fuller picture of what's going on in your life.The Balcony Exercise: how to become a non-judgmental observer and separate facts from interpretation so you can gain perspective on your current state and open up possibilitiesA gratitude reframe that’s not performative: “catching life going right”How gratitude helps your nervous system shift from fight/flight/freeze into rest-and-digest and a feeling of safetyWhy intentions work better than resolutions - because aligning to a new identity is much more powerful than willpowerUnderstand the part of your brain called the Reticular Activating System (RAS): how your brain filters what you notice based on what you focus onReflection questions to help you release an old story and choose a new one to align to the changes you want to make in your life and career.Reflection Questions (from the episode)What story have I been telling myself about my life and/or career that I’m ready to release?What part of that story is actually true - what are the facts? vs my story?What do I want to believe instead? What new story am I ready to align with?-----If this conversation resonates and you’re feeling a bit stuck or at a crossroads, I offer a complimentary 30-minute Career Clarity - ConnectionCall.

The title. The impact. The paycheck. From the outside, it looked like she had made it. But on the inside, something felt deeply off.In this episode, Alicia talks about the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs of misalignment - the anxiety, nervous system overload, and quiet loss of self - and how meditation, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation didn’t just help her cope; they helped her hear the truth she had been avoiding.Listeners will hear about:What burnout and misalignment actually feel like in the bodyWhy success that feeds the ego can still drain the soulHow intuition speaks, often as a whisper before it becomes "loud"The moment Alicia realized something had to changeAnd why leaving corporate wasn’t about having a perfect plan, but about trusting herselfAlicia also shares two reflection questions that changed everything for her — and that can help listeners reconnect with what "thriving" truly means in their own lives and careers.This episode is for anyone who has done everything “right,” yet feels the pull toward something more aligned, more authentic, and more true.The ThriveWorthy Podcast is about coming home to yourself.
