Hi friends! This episode is all about what your MERCURY sign means in ASTROLOGY and what it says about your COMMUNICATION STYLE.

Have you ever met someone and just clicked on a mental/intellectual level? You might get along well and you both think alike. While with others, maybe it’s tough to see one another’s perspective or share the same opinions. 

Well, maybe you both have mercury signs that are the same, different, or maybe they complement one another? (ex. If you have a Mercury in Taurus, you might be more of a practical thinker and while someone with a Mercury in Pisces might be more of a dreamer and an idealist, who prefers to think creatively and intuitively than logically).

We are all constantly evolving here on the planet. Expanding, growing, and awakening to new levels of consciousness.

So what happens when you can’t keep silencing the call you keep hearing about you taking action on manifesting your heart’s desires and giving yourself permission to truly live out your purpose in life authentically?

My recent podcast guest, Gem said, “You have all the knowledge and intuitive abilities within you already. It’s just about remembering.

Knowledge is honestly just remembering. It’s about reawakening the natural talents and abilities within you.

We’re all connected at the end of the day, and since nothing can be created or destroyed, we're just going through processes of remembering.

We all can relate to the fear of being judged. But, how much are you willing to compromise yourself to please other people? How much do you want to take away from yourself?

We only have one life. When you’re living in your authentic truth, it’s going to inspire others to do the same too.

Let your light completely shine in and that’s what’s going to draw the right people to you.

You can do anything, no matter your circumstances.”

Tune in to this podcast episode with Gem, where she shares her personal manifestation story about yearning for a deeper purpose and how she answered the call to fulfill her purpose in life, which is about helping those who feel lost and helping others heal through their trauma.

Are you a perfectionist?

Maybe you consider yourself a high-achiever, a results-driven person, and someone who knows how to hold it all together perfectly.

But doesn’t this get stressful for you?

Needing to keep up appearances or draining acts to portray a certain image to others?

Many empaths, highly-sensitive people (HSPs), women, and of course...empath women and sensitive women struggle with perfectionism on a daily basis.

What was once seen as an admirable character trait to have has now turned into a draining act that many of us can’t keep up anymore.

If you’ve ever struggled with perfectionism, you know how tough it can feel to be hyper-critical of ourselves, behavior, appearance, and actions.

If you’ve ever wondered if you might be a perfectionist, stay tuned for this episode where I will share 3 signs that might make you a perfectionist.

If you’re an empath who is struggling with self-limiting beliefs + behavior like this, or you’re having trouble with things like setting healthy boundaries or managing the energetic drain and overwhelm that so often comes with being an empath, then…

Then I’d love to invite you to join The Empath Empowerment Coaching Program!

Alone time is necessary for us to recharge.

This is especially true for empaths, introverts, and highly-sensitive people (HSPs).

Having a nervous system that is highly attuned and sensitive to the emotions and energy of the people around them isn’t always a walk in the park.

When we don’t get enough alone time, we can find ourselves feeling frazzled, exhausted, overwhelmed, and about ready to throw in the towel.

Side note: If you’re an extrovert or you’re not an empath or sensitive, I still invite you to stick around because we as humans need alone time in general.

Alone time is critical for our individuality, personal sovereignty, and mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing.

We don’t always think about the impact that spending time with others all of the time does to us and our nervous systems.

So join me on this episode, where I’ll share 3 benefits of spending alone time and how it improves your relationship with yourself.

Getting alone time is essential for the empath who is tired of feeling energetically depleted and overwhelmed with the busy lives that we live.

If you’re an empath who is looking for guidance on managing energetic overwhelm, releasing limiting beliefs, and setting healthy boundaries in your relationships…

Welcome back to the show!

Last time, we went over 4 signs that you might have trust issues.

Today we’re going to talk about why your trust issues are holding you back in your relationships.

If you’ve struggled with trust issues before and you’re wondering how it’s truly impacting the health of your relationships, then stick around for this episode.

And hey! You might be someone who has struggled with trust issues before. Or maybe you’ve been on the receiving end of a relationship with someone with trust issues.

Either way, it’s not easy.

But the good news is, if you do want to rebuild trust within yourself and your relationships...it is possible.

But what most people miss is that we have to start by working on ourselves, first.

I know this sounds counterintuitive, but if you’re struggling with a fear of intimacy, a lack of trusting others, insecurity, and deeply rooted personal issues (ex. fear of abandonment), it’s vital to start working on yourself first.

What does this look like?

Maybe you take the multidisciplinary approach and work with a therapist to address the mental health aspect of things.

And maybe you work with a life coach on the personal development and self-awareness/self-discovery piece.

When you begin to learn, understand, and accept yourself for who you truly are (quirks and all) and what you truly need, you begin to equip yourself with the tools to help others both understand and respect you and your needs as well.

If you’re an empath who is looking to understand your Empath nature and needs, learn more about your personality type, set healthy boundaries in your relationships, manage energetic and emotional overwhelm, and work through self-limiting beliefs…

Then I’d love to invite you to join The Empath Empowerment Coaching Program!

Trust is something that most of us desire within our relationships.

But it’s something that’s not always present within the relationships that we have in today’s world.

Whether that’s with a romantic partner, loved one, co-worker, or friend...many of us determine which relationships we want to engage in, based on who we feel we can trust.

But if you’ve been hurt in the past, it can be  really tough to trust others.

Especially, if you’re an Empath.

Having the specific challenges that come with being an empath (such as, absorbing the energy and emotions of those around us, having a fear of conflict, finding it hard to trust others when your intuition tells you otherwise), all makes it that much harder to trust people.

As empaths and sensitives, we can sense what can’t be seen with the eyes. We typically get a good read on whether we can trust a person. But sometimes the water gets muddy and it’s hard to determine who we can and cannot trust.

Or maybe we’ve struggled with having people cross our boundaries in the past, so we’ve learned to put our walls up and we’re hesitant to let people in.

But when our guard is up, sometimes we don’t let the good things and the right people in. We miss out on opportunities that are actually empowering, soul-nourishing, and a good match for us.

If you’ve ever dubbed yourself as the, “I don’t trust people” person, I want you to know that trust can be developed and it’s necessary to build healthy, intimate, well-connected relationships.

Stick around for this podcast episode, where I’ll share 4 Common signs of trust issues.

If you’re feeling like you struggle with trust issues and you’re curious on how it’s holding you back in your relationships, look out for the next episode, where I’ll share 3 reasons why your trust issues are holding you back in your relationships.

Attention to all of my recovering people-pleasers out there.

Have you been wondering about what you can do to stop the cycle of people-pleasing?

In the previous episode, we talked about 7 signs that show you might be a people pleaser (if you haven’t heard that episode yet and you want to go back and listen to that first, it’s Season 5 Episode 14).

In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to stop people-pleasing while still being compassionate.

If you’ve ever struggled with people-pleasing and you’re wondering how to stop doing that while still staying true to your compassionate nature, then I’d love for you to stick around for this episode.

If you’re ready to start making the inner changes necessary to stop people-pleasing and you’re an empath who is looking to set healthy boundaries in your relationships, manage energetic and emotional overwhelm, and work through self-limiting beliefs…

Is being a people pleaser all that bad?

I mean, isn’t it just being nice and agreeable?

Doesn’t it just allow you to get along with most everyone around you?

Or maybe it makes us feel generally liked?

And it probably makes you feel like you can avoid conflict as much as possible? Right?

Wrong.

Tough love coming at ya, my friend. Being a people pleaser is not what it seems.

According to heathline.com, “being a people pleaser goes beyond simple kindness and it involves editing or altering words or behaviors for the sake of another person’s feelings or reactions.”

The danger with people-pleasing is that you have to sacrifice parts of yourself to please or meet the needs of others.

When you people-please over a long period of time, it leads to burnout, exhaustion, resentment, and it really isn’t sustainable at all.

I mean, how long can we really keep this gig up?

How much longer are you going to give up your energy and time to please others?

How much longer are you going to betray yourself in order for others to “like you?”

If you’ve ever wondered if you might be a people pleaser, you won’t want to miss this podcast episode.

Stay-tuned for this episode where I’ll share 7 signs that you might be a people pleaser.

Many of us want and need different things in our relationships.

Some of us need a lot of space and independence.

And then some of us struggle with (I’m gonna say it straight up) clinginess and wanting to be with our partners all of the time.

There’s science behind this. It’s called attachment styles.

Attachment style refers to the way that we relate to others, behave, and respond emotionally in our relationships.

They are formed in our childhood and are based in response to the relationships we had with our earliest caregivers.

So why is this important for empaths and highly-sensitives to keep in mind when wanting to improve their relationships?

Well, we have a nervous system that is highly-attuned to the emotions and energy of others around us.

So when our partner is behaving in a way that we can’t understand and we start to feel emotionally overwhelmed, keeping the attachment styles in mind can help you to hold space, have deeper compassion for, and see a different perspective that your partner may be experiencing.

This information will help you understand your partner and their behavior better.

Because, as I always like to say...we are all wired very differently.

So if you’ve been trying to understand your partner and their behavior on a deeper level, stay tuned for this episode on the 4 attachment styles.

Listen in to learn which style you and your partner have.

If you’re an empath who is looking to build better boundaries in your relationships and to do the mindset work in order to develop a better sense of self-esteem, then I’d love to invite you to join The Empath Empowerment Coaching Program!

This is my signature, 8-week, 1:1 coaching program for empaths who are interested in setting better boundaries in their relationships, managing their energetic overwhelm, and tackling their self-limiting beliefs.

Are you in a relationship or partnership with someone? Have you ever been curious about what’s motivating them at an unconscious level? Have you ever wondered how they were wired internally?

One of my most recent podcast guests, Daniel Anear, said, “As we go through changes it can bring up the end of a relationship or it can be a catalyst to revitalize your relationships.”

We all have our own wounding and we have different attachment styles.

In our childhood, we learn how to interact with people and we each bring our own beliefs, patterning, and conditioning into our relationships when we’re adults.

It’s not always easy, but these things can be worked through with understanding, compassion, and respect for each other's unique differences and needs.

Join us in this insightful podcast interview with Daniel Anear, who is a relationship and marriage counselor, a father and husband, transformation coach, INFJ, and an Enneagram 1. This episode is all about relationships and how you can make them go more successfully.

We talk all about personality types (the Enneagram and Myers-Briggs) and how to use them as a tool in your relationships. We also cover how to create a mutually-satisfying relationship and go over the signs that a relationship might be ending or over.

Can’t wait to hear what you think of the episode!

You can connect with Dan in the following ways:

One of the most common relationship problems is a lack of intimacy.

Now, intimacy in relationships isn’t only about sex.

It goes beyond just the physical.

It’s about the feeling of closeness and connection on a mental, emotional, spiritual level as well.

And when you feel like your partner truly doesn’t get you on a deeper level, intimacy can be tough.

Maybe they just don’t get the way that you’re wired on the inside. Maybe they don’t have a clue about the inner workings of your soul.

And it feels soul-sucking to feel misunderstood and not seen in your relationship with the person that’s supposed to be one of the closest people to you.

Well, what if I told you that there was a way to bring back the intimacy in your romantic partnerships on a mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical level?

Stay-tuned for this juicy podcast episode on the 4 ways that you can use personality types to build more intimacy in your romantic relationships.

They say that opposites attract, and they do.

Whether you’re an introvert who is in a relationship with an extrovert (or vice versa), I’m sure you’re familiar with the highs and lows that come with the territory of being with someone who is the opposite of you.

And maybe you’re wondering what you can do to better navigate your introverted/extroverted relationship with more love, understanding, and compassion?

Stay-tuned for this podcast episode, where I’m going to share five things that I wish my extroverted partner knew about me as an introvert.

And my husband, Riley, is going to share five things that he wishes his introverted partner knew more about him.

Have you ever felt criticized by a partner, co-worker, boss, a friend, or family member before?

What did that feel like? Did you ever feel like shutting down? Or maybe you felt defensive? Or maybe you’ve felt the need to fight back?

Experiencing conflict. This is never easy, for anyone.

But if you’re an empath, you know how incredibly tough it can feel to experience conflict on an emotional and energetic level.

Having a nervous system that is highly sensitive and perceptive to the emotions and energy of others can feel rough and shaken up while experiencing tough situations or people.

Maybe when you and your partner get into an argument with your partner, you notice that they always need to be right.

Or maybe when you’re experiencing a moment of tension with a friend, family member, or co-worker, you notice that they’re always focused on controlling the conversation.

Then after we find ourselves royally frustrated, the following thoughts tend to pop up for us:

“Why do they always act this way?”

“Why can’t we see eye to eye?”

“Why is this person always fixated on x, y, and z?”

Or “Maybe we’re just incompatible.”

But, what if I told you that there was a way to help you navigate conflict with more understanding and compassion for yourself and others?

Stay tuned for this episode that will serve up a fresh perspective on how to use personality types as a tool to improve your relationships by helping you navigate conflict with your loved ones.

Being assertive is something that we hear conflicting information about.

On one hand, we’ve been told that it’s a strength to be assertive in life. That it’s a necessary thing to be able to accomplish important things in our lives.

But on the other hand, we also get judged for being assertive.

I think the confusion comes up when we aren’t clear on the definition of assertiveness.

Assertiveness is the ability to stand up for the needs and rights of yourself and others, without the need to be forceful or aggressive.

It’s a core communication skill.

It is practicing the art of being direct while asking for what you want and need, in a calm and objective manner.

You can still be kind and respectful while asserting yourself. You can still be assertive while being respectful of other people’s thoughts, feelings, beliefs.

It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. Communicating with assertiveness is direct and respectful.

But, if you’re an empath, being assertive might feel scary, uncomfortable, and difficult.

We’re highly empathetic and tuned-in to the energy and emotions of others around us. It can be uncomfortable to be exposed to and even absorb other people’s reactions to us being assertive.

At the end of the day, we just want things to be in harmony and we just want to co-exist in peace with the people around us.

So why would we even bother with being assertive.

Well, stay tuned for this valuable episode on the three reasons why practicing the art of assertiveness is necessary for an empath.

When something bad happens or when someone says something that we don’t like, we all have the ability to take things personally.

We get triggered. We get upset. And before you know it, we’re energetically thrown off.

And then we say things like, “What the heck?” “Why’d that person have to treat me that way?” or “What the heck is their problem?”

So, we grab our phones, put on our “why me” caps and vent to our friends, partners, or family members, and before you know it, one of them tells you:

“Aww, don’t worry about it”

or

“It’ll be fine, just forget about it”

or

“Let it go.”

Or the, “I’m sure they didn’t mean to say it like that.”

And just like that, we’re re-triggered all over again. Order up! You’ve just gotten another serving of taking shit personally.

People typically say these statements to make us feel better, but it only makes us feel way worse. And they’re missing the point.

But have you ever wondered why we take things so personally?

Let’s talk about the psychology behind this.

Join me for this insightful podcast episode where I share 5 reasons why we take things so personally.

Wondering what you can do to practice the art of not taking things so personally?

Be kinder to yourself, have compassion for yourself as a whole, and give yourself grace to make mistakes (and learn from trial and error).

One way to develop more self-connection and self-compassion is to get to know yourself better on a deeper level. On a level of inner wiring.

If you’re an empath who is interested in learning about your empath nature and your personality type, I’d love to invite you to join me in my Empath Empowerment Coaching Program.

We live in a society where effort, ambition, drive, and constant “doing” is rewarded.

And when we do all of the things to keep up with the busy world, we end up exhausted, overwhelmed, depleted, and burnt out.

As humans in general, we weren’t meant to operate at machine-like hyperspeed. We weren’t meant to live our lives on overdrive.

And if you’re an empath, highly-sensitive person, introvert this probably hits harder on your nervous system.

So, what do we do to manage our well being and energy reserves in a seemingly chaotic and disruptive world?

Self-care.

Ok. Before you start rolling your eyes at me thinking this is another blanket call to action on self-care, give me just a little more of your time to offer you a different perspective on self-care and not only it’s benefits, but it’s necessity in your life.

Being an empath is pretty neat. We’re highly-intuitive and we have the gift of high-sensitivity.

We have the ability to sense and feel the emotions of others very well. We’re just that tuned in.

But this can also be challenging for us because being this tuned in can be draining and we can feel emotionally overwhelmed.

I mean, have you ever had an interaction with someone who was having a rough day? How did you feel afterwards? Irritated, grumpy, or maybe upset too? And then soon enough, the rest of your day feels like it’s off kilter.

It’s rough being caught in the riptide of complex emotions from both others and ourselves.

But what is emotional overwhelm anyway? It is a state that we enter when the weight and intensity of the emotions we’re feeling feel like too much for us to handle or process.

So what do you think, have you ever felt emotionally overwhelmed before?

Join Naomi for this brand new podcast episode, where she shares the five telltale signs of emotional overwhelm in empaths. 

Can't wait to see you on the inside!

Have you ever had an experience with a narcissist?

Maybe you’ve had to deal with one at work, with your family, in a friendship, or maybe even a romantic partnership?

No matter the case, it’s never an easy type of relationship to manage.

And many empaths feel like they’ll always be victims of narcissists.

Now, I’m not a licensed mental health professional and if you’re dealing with someone who is narcissistic or has a NPD diagnosis and you need help, please take a look at what sorts of resources you have in your local area or online (there are people who are licensed and trained to help you with these situations.

I’m here to break it down + bust a specific myth and self-limiting belief. And that myth, “I’m an empath, and I will always be a victim and a magnet to narcissists.”

As empaths, sometimes we have narcissistic partners, family members, or loved ones. It happens, but it’s not easy to deal with to say the least.

Empaths are deeply compassionate and giving, narcissists thrive on.

The empath gives and gives, then they feel used, drained, and defeated, and the narcissist continues the chaos.

If you’ve ever dealt with a narcissist, you won’t want to miss this podcast episode.

Join me in my latest podcast episode, where I talk about empaths, narcissists, and ending the empath victim narrative.

Have you ever felt guilty about saying no or turning a request or invitation down?

It can be hard to say no if you’re an Empath. A lot of us are recovering people pleasers and we just want to help others and make them happy.

But then we fall into a cycle where we end up tolerating behavior that does not serve us.

We end up putting those who value us the least first.

Then we become resentful, drained, and overwhelmed for a number of reasons but the main one is that we end up helping others at the detriment of ourselves.

Saying no while feeling empowered can be a rough one for empaths.

What we don’t realize is that we most likely need better boundaries as an Empath.

Join Naomi for an audio replay of a livestream that she did on the topic of empaths, boundaries, and the things we feel guilty about when setting healthy boundaries in our lives.

You won’t want to miss this episode because she covers the 6 boundaries that you don’t have to feel bad for setting as an empath.

See you on the inside of the episode!

What triggers you the most? Is it being micromanaged? Or maybe it’s when people lack empathy or take advantage of the good-hearted? Maybe it’s having your feelings invalidated.

No matter what triggers you the most, I think that one thing that we can all agree on as human beings is that we all can get triggered at some point in our everyday lives.

And we definitely know when we’re triggered when we’re upset, pissed, sad, frustrated, angry, disappointed, or heartbroken. But are we always super clear on the reason WHY we’re triggered?

And would gaining more clarity on what triggers us on an individual, personal level be helpful in better managing the wave of strong and sometimes overwhelming emotions that come flooding in each time we’re triggered?

Let’s find out! Join Naomi for this helpful podcast episode where she shares an audio replay of a livestream that she did on the topic of empaths and triggers.

If triggers hit close to home for you, then you won’t want to miss out on this episode because she shares five common empath triggers and she offers up a fresh perspective on how we can view triggers in a different light (one that actually positions triggers as a tool for growth, rather than a burden that victimizes you).

Can’t wait to see you in the episode!

As empaths, it can be tough not to get caught up in thinking we need to get permission from others.

As children and even in adulthood, we’ve been conditioned by our caregivers, teachers, or other authority figures to seek the “okay” from them for just about everything.

Growing up, we had to ask permission to use the bathroom, or to eat, or before we spoke in class, before we could play outside, if we could see our friends, etc.

We’ve been taught to seek counsel before making any decisions for ourselves.

We’ve been trained not to trust ourselves, our intuition, or our gut instincts (even though we have those inner “I told you so” moments all of the time).

We ask our partners or lovers if “this looks good” on us before we go out and show ourselves.

And we’ve been taught to rely on what “makes sense” and “logic” over our inner knowing (the knowing from comes from your heart).

All of this programming then starts to plant self-limiting beliefs within us and our subconscious mind.

We start to believe that having freedom in making our own decisions is a privilege and not a right.

Here’s your wake up call my fellow empath. THE ONLY PERSON YOU NEED PERMISSION FROM IS YOU.

Join Naomi for her audio replay of a livestream that she shared on the 10 things that Empaths don't need permission to do.
