Ep. 431 - Season of the Witch: A Psychiatrist’s Case for Trusting Your Intuition with Dr. Ellen Vora
What if we rewrote “laziness” as ease, traded “hustle” for flow, and redefined “success” as balance?
In this episode, Jessica sits down with holistic psychiatrist and bestselling author Dr. Ellen Vora to talk about her new book, Season of the Witch: A Psychiatrist’s Case for Magic. Drawing on her background in science and a spiritual awakening that came through grief, Ellen challenges the stories that taught women to trust logic, productivity, and approval over their own inner knowing.
Together, they explore how to tell real intuition from fear and old wounds, why rest and your body’s natural rhythms may be the key to an aligned life, and how tech, hustle culture, and the pressure to be likable pull you away from your inner compass. Ellen shares the story of losing her mother and the synchronicity that opened her to a more mystical view of life, and how it inspired her life’s work.
Your intuition isn’t something you have to earn. It’s something you can learn to hear again. And when you stop outsourcing your knowing and start trusting yourself, you don’t just change your own life—you make room for a more conscious, connected, and compassionate world.

Have you ever chased someone who wasn’t fully choosing you, overanalyzed every text, or kept repeating the same relationship patterns, even when you knew you deserved more? What if secure love isn’t about becoming more desirable, but about feeling safe and worthy within yourself?
In this honest, empowering episode, Jessica sits down with dating and relationship coach, podcast host, and author of Why Am I Like This? Sabrina Zohar to unpack the subconscious patterns, attachment wounds, and limiting beliefs that keep us stuck in the same cycles. After anxious attachment, heartbreak, and self-abandonment (including sending 173 texts to someone who rejected her), Sabrina shares how she broke free from validation-seeking and built the self-worth to experience a completely different kind of love. Jessica also opens up about healing her own anxious attachment through the TBM work and how reprogramming limiting beliefs changed her experience of trust, safety, and love.
Whether you’re dating, manifesting a partner, healing from heartbreak, or deepening an existing relationship, this conversation is a reminder: you don’t have to be perfect to be worthy of love. You just have to stop abandoning yourself in pursuit of it.

What if the universe has already been showing you exactly where to go next—you just haven’t been recognizing the signs?
In this episode, Lacy, Jessica, and Janelle break down two of the most powerful parts of the manifestation process: expanders and pings. They explain why expanders matter on a neurological level, helping rewire your pathways and show you that the lifestyle, things, and feelings you want are actually within reach. Then, they dive into pings: how to get grounded enough to notice them, trust them, and follow where they lead.
The girls get real about burnout, friendship, boundaries, and spaciousness in the Refinement Era, and what happens when you stop filling your life with "shoulds" and make room for a full-body yes.
If an old identity is dissolving and you’re wondering what’s next, the universe may already be showing you the way. Whether you’re new to TBM or a day-one Pathway member, this episode will help you recognize the signals the universe is sending you and start dancing with it, one “yes” at a time.

What if the thing between you and your next quantum leap isn't more effort, but believing you're already worthy of what you want?
Jessica sits down with founder, podcaster, and TBMer Ellie to bust the biggest myth about confidence: that you either have it or you don't. Ellie shares how she built hers through finding Expanders, nervous system regulation, and taking aligned action just beyond her comfort zone.
You'll also hear how monthly reflection shows you the progress you're actually making, how Ellie held her price while selling her Amsterdam home when every part of her wanted to settle, and why "fractional" Expanders shift your beliefs one piece at a time.
If you've been overworking, doubting you're confident enough, or feeling tested right before a breakthrough, this episode is for you. Your next moment of expansion may come from regulation and surrender, not force.

What if the things suddenly feeling “off” in your life are actually showing you exactly where you’re meant to go next?
In this episode, Lacy and Jessica dive into the Refinement Era and Lacy's recent channeling about the Great Clearing: an upcoming season of releasing distractions, outdated identities, energy leaks, and anything that no longer reflects who you're becoming. They explore why this isn't about "locking in" through more discipline or force, but about locking into your soul and getting radically clear on what deserves your life force.
Lacy shares her latest channeling on shame integration, intuition, and the freedom of embracing your "f*ck it energy." Jessica breaks down how expanders, visibility, creativity, and her 3am "lazy river" metaphor are reshaping the way she thinks about manifestation.
From soul friendships and social media to rituals, nature, and following the smallest intuitive pings, this conversation is an invitation to stop fighting the current, clear what's draining your power, and make space for a life that feels unmistakably like you.

What if the belief system you’ve been locked into isn’t actually true…and you’ve held the keys to your own freedom all along?
Right before a big transformation, old patterns often get louder right before they loosen their grip. But a flawed belief system doesn’t mean you’re flawed as a person—it just means there are parts of you still asking to be healed.
This episode is your protocol for getting grounded, going deeper, and getting curious about what’s actually keeping you stuck. If you’re in a rut, hitting rock bottom, or just having one of those low-spark days, consider this your manifestation pep talk to disrupt the old story and bring you home to yourself.
That magnetic, grounded version of you never left. They’re still in there. And the universe is constantly sending you clues about how to get back to them. We’re here to help you tune into your intuition, follow those clues, dance with the universe again, and bring your higher self back online.

What if the life you actually want requires you to stop trying to be liked?
In this episode, Lacy and Jessica break down what we're all getting wrong about authenticity, and why it's one of the most important parts of manifesting a life you love. They talk about the difference between living as your real self vs. performing "realness" to get validation and approval, and how the interests you had before you learned to fit in hold clues to who you really are.
They also get candid about the hard parts of being seen: triggering people, being misunderstood, feeling lonely in between who you were and who you're becoming, and letting go of the need to prove you're good enough.
This is your sign to reflect and refine. Stop looking outside yourself for your identity. Disconnect from the noise and become the author of your own story.
The things you actually want in life aren't found by copying someone else's path—they show up when you have the courage to follow your own.

What if validation, love, and belonging were things you could give yourself? What would change if you could truly see and trust your own magic?
Jessica sits down with writer, creative coach, and TBMer GG Renee for a powerful conversation about family dynamics, self-worth, and creating a life rooted in authenticity rather than external validation. GG shares how growing up with a mother with undiagnosed mental illness shaped her relationship with safety, people-pleasing, achievement, love, and her sense of self. Through therapy, writing, and TBM, she began uncovering the core belief underneath so many of her patterns: that something was fundamentally wrong with her.
They explore why understanding your patterns isn’t always enough to change them, how self-trust can transform your relationship with money and uncertainty, and how to value your gifts without needing external validation. GG also shares her journey from corporate life to a creative career, redefining discipline as devotion, manifesting her book, and embracing her sensitivity, imagination, and slower pace as strengths.
If you’ve ever felt too sensitive, too behind, or like you need to prove your worth before you can receive what you desire, this conversation will show you what becomes possible when you learn to create safety from within.

In this episode, Jessica sits down with Cameron Oaks Rogers: creator of the Freckled Foodie empire, host of Conversations with Cam, mom, and TBMer.

They talk about testing out new passions before you leap, trusting your gut, fitting manifestation into motherhood, and letting yourself evolve. Cameron also gets real about body image, breaking generational patterns, showing her kids what true self-worth looks like.
If you're feeling pulled toward a new career, a creative project, or just a new version of yourself, this episode is your permission slip to begin.
