011. Vanessa McNeal is a life coach, national speaker and host of Cracked Open Podcast with an MSW in social work. We recorded this episode back in early 2023 when I was feeling as if I was in a void period, almost like a waiting room in between two worlds of wanting to find my person and create my dream career. The first half of the episode is here, and you can find the second half on episode 8 of Cracked Open. In this episode, we discuss:

+ how to trust in your own magnetism

+ how trying to control other people's opinions of us keeps us from showing up as our full selves

+ why it's important to let go of making sure our hearts make sense to other people

+ dealing with feelings of desperation, AKA: “I’m desperate for this thing I haven’t been able to get yet, but not desperate enough to settle for I know is not that."

+ surrendering to Saturn return and reframing scarcity mindset

+ why life is forcing me to be alone and fully embodied in myself first

Enjoy :)
