Becoming Lit AF
Ann Fancy
You know those deep conversations you have late at night when your guard is down and everyone is just letting the truth spill out? Let's get down and dirty and talk about real life, what it means to awaken, the ugly truth of the challenges we face, and how we navigate them. Let's unravel the conditioning, limiting beliefs, and bullshit that keeps us from creating our most meaningful and wakeful life. Let's delve in deep with others as they walk us through their path, their trials, and tribulations and follow the breadcrumbs that led them to create a meaningful, soulful life. This experience we call life is a winding, bumpy, and sometimes challenging road, especially if you are on the path of becoming more conscious, wakeful, contemplative, and purposeful. I want to talk about it.We will share stories and insights that inspire us all to keep rising up into powerful, purposeful, soulful lives while we navigate the mess, the noise, and the darkness. I hope this podcast can be a voice in the chaos, a reminder that you a powerful being, and that you are NOT alone.There is so much power in truth-telling, and raw conversation and this is the space for just that. It is time to wake up to your divine nature, your dharma, your purpose, and your wholeness of being. Let's get lit together and illuminate the world!

Jamie Rittenberry | When life give you lemons...
Jamie Rittenberry has one heck of a story, but he might sometimes be reluctant to share it as he admits to being uncomfortable participating in the "trauma-olympics." While he faced a ton of adversity, his humble and kind nature led him to downplay his own experiences so as not to diminish anyone else's. I was simply hoping to learn more about Jamie's life and what kind of magic it took for him to not only survive but to garner so much wisdom along the way, while serving as an RN and co-par...

Home for the Holidays?!
"I love meeting people's mom. It's like reading an instruction manual as to why they are nuts." ~Ted Lasso This quote is perfection. The truth it holds is powerful and brutal. It is so easy to see that from the outside of ourselves when meeting the in-laws, or being inside someone else's hometown experience. But, when the table turns, and we use that wisdom to examine our own instruction manual, it can be pretty uncomfortable. As we grow and change and become, and "unbec...
