    40. How to Become Truly Confident

    When I became spiritual, I realized that confidence is an inside job between you and the universe. It isn't about external validation or being better than others, it's about being connected to who you truly are and the things you deeply desire. In this episode I break down the ways you can become more authentically confident today.Book a Soul Mapping Session and come to Mexico City with me.

    39. When You’re Mad at the Divine

    One of the greatest tensions for me since becoming spiritual has been accepting all of the parts of life on Earth that are so hard. Not just for myself, but for the world at large.For a long time, that tension kept me from believing in God at all.In this episode, I share how my understanding of divine support has evolved and how I’ve learned to stay connected to something greater, even when life feels messy.Book a free Soul Mapping and come to Mexico with me

    37. How to Get Unstuck

    Feeling stuck is one of the hardest places to be.

    36. How to Trust Your Body

    The start of my intuitive journey was based heavily in seeing through my third eye and relying on signs from outside of myself. As time went on, my relationship with my body evolved to become the main way I connect with my intuition. I hear from many clients that they want to trust their bodies, but don't know how. In this episode I'll break down the ways you can build a relationship with your body, so she can become a trusted friend on this life journey.If you feel called to deepen this work and join me in Mexico, you can book a Free Soul Mapping Session here.

    How To Be Truly High Vibe

    Something that used to really bug me in the manifestation world?The idea that you have to be “high vibe” all the time. Life includes good days and hard ones. Feelings, in all of their forms, are such an important part of the human experience.In this episode, I share why feeling your feelings to completion doesn’t make you low vibe…It makes you honest.And when you are honest and true to yourself, you emit one of the highest vibrations of all- integrity.Book an Essence Reading

    How to Take Your Power Back in 2026

    What does it really mean to be in your power and how do we call it back?Power is often framed through masculine ideals: accumulation, dominance, assertiveness. But true power has nothing to do with what you have or how loudly you assert yourself. It comes from alignment with your soul.From an energetic perspective, power is about how connected you are to your inner truth, how well you preserve and enhance your life force through the way you live, and how deeply you understand your true nature.In this episode, I explore what it actually means to live in your power and how to reclaim it as we move into 2026.Book a Year Ahead Reading

    How To Uncover Your Soul's Vision for 2026

    Intention and goal setting for the new year is a potent way to support yourself in living on your truest path.I believe your soul holds a vision that is already here to be expressed and fulfilled. A vision is an energetic signature — a frequency that already exists within you — and when you learn to tune into it, the year ahead becomes less about forcing outcomes and more about aligning with what’s meant to unfold.In this episode, I walk you through how to uncover your soul’s vision for 2026, how to set goals that feel true in your body, and how to create intentions that bring you back to your essence again and again.Book a Year Ahead ReadingAlex Paulos's siteA Course in Miracles aka the bible

    When Shit Hits The Fan

    On the soul path and the journey to becoming your most essence-ial self, there will always be times when chaos ensues. It might be that you took a risk and the outcome is nothing like what you envisioned — in fact, it’s a bit of a disaster… or suddenly things in your reality start crumbling.In whatever form it arrives, chaos is an important part of life for a few key reasons that I explain in this episode.If your life is taking an unexpected turn or things in your reality are falling apart faster than you can catch them, this conversation will help you understand why it’s happening and how to move through it with clarity, courage, and a deeper connection to your true self.

    How To Let Go

    Life is an endless dance of creation—and your soul is the most powerful creator of all. But in order to truly create, we have to be willing to destruct, to clear the space, to surrender what no longer fits. That’s where letting go comes in.Letting go—whether of a chapter, a person, a version of yourself, or a place you’ve called home—is rarely easy. I used to wonder: when people say “let go,” how the hell do you actually do that? Is there a process? A step-by-step formula?The good news is… there is a process. And in this episode, I share the one that’s helped me. If you’re in the middle of a transition, grieving something (or someone), or just know in your gut it’s time to release, this one’s for you.I love you.Book an Essence Reading

    How To Find Your Purpose

    I spent most of my 20s in a desperate search for my purpose. It felt like my sole mission in life... to discover what I was here to do. I read Human Design charts for about 3 years and part of the Human Design chart is what is called The Incarnation Cross, which was my first time using a system to see the soul's purpose. I then moved onto intuitive readings where I read the purpose of my client's in the Akashic Records.In this episode I explain what purpose is to the soul, how your purpose changes in different seasons of life, and how you can move towards finding yours/ allowing the universe to reveal it to you. Finding your purpose is less about mentally thinking your way through life and more about relaxing into your body and letting life guide you. Book an Essence Reading

    When You're Losing Faith In Your Intuition

But then your intuition leads you right to an outcome you didn't want and you can begin to lose faith...In this episode I explain what to do when you are in a moment of losing faith and why intuition isn't about guarantees, but rather about learning deeper life lessons.This episode will help you regain trust in yourself, your intuition, and your soul's higher path.Book an Essence ReadingBooks Mentioned:Into the Magic Shop by James Doty

    How To Be More Intuitive

    Intuition. The most popular word in 2025. We all want to be more connected with our intuition, but how do we do it?In this episode I break down the steps to becoming a more intuitive person. Your intuition is the language of your soul and the way your spirit team communicates with you. Becoming more intuitive isn't about trying harder, but rather learning to soften and receive more of the wisdom within you and available to you in every moment.

    Making Friends With Fear: How Fear Shows You The Way

    One of the biggest blocks to following your heart is fear. It isn't the presence of fear that is the problem, it is that we believe it and let it make our choices.In this episode, I explain how you can learn to create an open and even loving relationship with your fear. When you do so, you may just find the clarity you've been seeking. Book an Essence ReadingStill Here by Ram Dass

    How to Release Control to Find Freedom

    Welcome to the first episode of Getting Essence-ial!I just spent two weeks in Colombia — a country I once called home for a year and a half when I was 23. My time there taught me more than I can ever fully explain, but most of all it showed me how to let go of control.Living abroad meant surrendering control over what I ate, how my routines looked, and even the plan I thought I had for my life. What surprised me most was how freeing that surrender felt.In this episode, I share how releasing control in empowering ways can open you to more freedom in your own life.Book an Essence ReadingEating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer

    What To Do When You Feel Insecure

    Hi loves! This episode was inspired by my recent Mercury retrograde journey. With Mercury retrograde in my first house—the house of self—I found myself bumping up against insecurity again and again. Honestly, it sucked… but it also got me curious. What if we could approach the very human experience of insecurity from the wisdom of the soul?In this episode, I’ll share why insecurity shows up for us as humans and how to create a deeper sense of inner security—one that stays steady, even when confidence or self-esteem temporarily wavers.Book an Essence Reading

    Looking for Love From the Soul, Not the Ego

    Hi loves! This episode was inspired by my current journey of looking for love. It can feel scary and intimidating to be on the path of finding your person, but as with all things, the soul can make it so much better.In this episode, I share how you can stay rooted in your essence while looking for love, rather than chasing partnership to fill something you feel is missing. We’ll talk about what your soul knows about love, how to spot when ego is leading the search, and why true partnership comes from wholeness — not from making someone else your source of love.Whether you’re actively dating or simply calling in your person, this conversation will help you approach love from fullness, not lack.Book an Essence ReadingThe ZimZum of Love by Rob Bell

    You Belong Everywhere: The Story of Finding Home Within Myself

    In this episode, I share my most recent spiritual epiphany: that home isn't something that we find outside of ourselves. After nearly a decade of living in different countries and hoping I’d finally land in “my place,” I came to realize that my soul is — and always has been — my true home. The moment I stopped seeking home outside of myself, I felt more rooted than ever before.My intention with this episode is to guide you toward rooting from a place of alignment rather than fear and how to come home to your own mind, body and soul so you can follow your soul's plan fearlessly.Book a call for the Rebirth here.

    Re-emerging as Your Essential Self (Rebirth Series Pt. 4)

    In this final episode of The Rebirth series, I guide you through the most rewarding part of the journey: re-emerging. I share how your soul will let you know when it's time to come back into the world — not as who you were, but as the essential self you've reclaimed through this process.Once you’ve been reborn, everything begins to shift: how you express yourself, how you dress, how you relate to others, and how you approach your work. This episode is about honoring those changes — and intentionally shaping your life to reflect the truth of who you’ve become.Sign up for the Rebirth Class hereBook an Essence Reading

    Learning to Sit In the Void (Rebirth Series Pt. 3)

    The third stage of the Rebirth journey is learning to sit in the liminal space between lives — also known as the void. While the void can feel scary to the mind, it’s actually a sacred time when your soul is preparing itself for what’s next. In this episode, I share why the void is an essential part of the rebirthing process and how you can move through it with trust, grace, and presence.Sign up for The Rebirth Class here

    Why Facing Your Shadow Will Set You Free (Rebirth Series Pt. 2)

    The second phase of the rebirth process is what I call “the descent”—the journey into the underworld of your soul, where you meet the parts of yourself you’ve hidden away. In this episode, I talk about what it really means to face your shadow. It’s uncomfortable. It brings up everything you’d rather avoid. But when you stay with it—when you witness what’s been buried—you emerge more free, more whole, and more you than ever before.Sign up here for The Rebirth Class Here

    How to Embrace the Unknown and Create the Life You Want

    One of the trickiest moments on the path of soul is when you're deep in the unknown. The murkiness can feel unbearable to the mind, triggering the urge to rush toward certainty. But in this episode, I share why the unknown is actually a profound creative portal—and an essential part of any brave life. The more you learn to trust and even love the unknown, the more free and aligned you will feel.

    Grief is the Price of Becoming

    The soul's path is one of growth and in order to grow, we must be willing to grieve. In this episode I share how I am learning to grieve former versions of myself and even dreams I previously had for myself in order to welcome in a new life chapter. While it may feel painful and uncomfortable, when we are willing to sit with grief, transformation can occur on the other side.Mentioned in this Episode:Rachel's Intuitive Readings
