  • A New Relationship with Wealth with Sarah McCrum
    Apr 11 2026

    In this conversation, I dialogue with Sarah McCrum, author of Love Money Money Loves You, and what unfolds is a deep and unexpected exploration of money as energy, as relationship, and as something that is actually responding to us.

    Sarah shares how, in the aftermath of a devastating business collapse, she began receiving what can only be described as a transmission. What started as journaling turned into a body of work that has now impacted thousands of people’s relationship with money, generosity, and value.

    We explore what it means to be in relationship with money rather than in pursuit of it, and how our thoughts, emotions, and even subtle contractions can shape what we receive or block.

    This conversation moves between the mystical and the practical, from channeling and energy transmission to pricing, service, and building a business rooted in integrity.

    We talk about
    • why money responds to clarity, openness, and trust
    • how generosity and service actually create flow
    • the discipline of not turning against yourself when you feel fear or contraction
    • why making money for its own sake feels empty
    • and how true wealth includes purpose, contribution, and alignment

    One of the most powerful threads is the idea that as we expand our capacity with money, we are also stepping into greater responsibility. Not just for ourselves, but for what we are here to contribute.

    This is a conversation about power, trust, and the quiet, steady rewiring of how we relate to receiving.

    Sarah is an author, educator, and business innovator who explores the deeper relationship between money, value, and human flourishing. Her work bridges business, consciousness, and personal transformation, helping individuals and organizations rethink how money flows through their lives and the world.

  • Right Sized Business + Ecstatic Grief with Amber Lilyestrom
    Apr 5 2026

    “I just let myself feel the ecstatic grief of all of that in the moment.” - Amber Lilyestrom

    In this deeply moving and expansive conversation, I dialogue with Amber Lileystrom about what it means to build a life and business that actually reflects who you are now, not who you’ve been conditioned to be.

    Amber shares how her work has evolved into something more intimate, more precise, and more truth led. We explore the shift away from constant scaling into what she calls “right sized business,” where your life, your values, and your actual capacity guide what you create.

    We talk about identity, self trust, and the patterns that quietly shape our results, especially in business and money. Amber introduces her Money Codes Method and how uncovering adaptive safety patterns can radically shift what’s possible without forcing or overcomplicating the process.

    There’s also a powerful reframe around the nervous system. Amber questions the language itself, offering the idea that what we call the nervous system might actually be more like a grounding system or a root system, something stabilizing rather than something inherently anxious.

    And at the end of this episode, Amber shares a poem from her book Little Big Beautiful Things, which is truly one of the most powerful moments of the conversation. It’s a visceral, emotional reflection on life, love, motherhood, and being held that you can feel in your body as you listen.

    In this episode, we cover:
    • The Dream Journal practice and how desire reveals deeper truth
    • What it looks like to stop over holding and begin relating to life differently
    • Right sized business and redefining success in a way that actually fits your life
    • Why intimate spaces often create deeper and more sustainable transformation
    • Amber’s Money Codes Method and uncovering adaptive safety patterns in business
    • How identity and past experiences shape results more than strategy alone
    • A reframe of the “nervous system” as grounding or root based support
    • The role of truth, grief, and fully experiencing your life
    • Letting go of outdated identities and returning to who you actually are
    • The power of poetry as a transmission of truth and lived experience

    If this conversation stirred something in you, especially around how much you’ve been holding and the desire to live and lead from a more grounded, embodied place, this is where my work meets you.

    My 3 month private breathwork and Reiki container supports you in expanding your capacity to feel, process, and move what’s been held in the body so your life and work can actually align with who you are now.

    This is intimate, real time support for women who are ready to stop overriding themselves and start living from a deeper place of truth.

    Reach out to me directly to explore if this is aligned for you.

  • Can You Handle the Truth: Making Something Real with Amy Skylark Foster
    Apr 3 2026

    For 30 years I have been working with energy, breath, and the body, and this conversation meets that same level of truth through the lens of making, creating, and earning mastery.

    In this episode, I dialogue with Amy Foster, songwriter, novelist, and maker, in a conversation that is bold, honest, and deeply grounding.

    Amy names it clearly
    “If you can’t handle the fact that you’re going to suck, then get out.”
    “The universe has its own clock. Sit down. Be humble.”

    This is a conversation about what it actually takes to make something real.

    We talk about truth, craft, mastery, discipline, creative process, finishing what you start, and the willingness to be bad long enough to become good. We explore her life between music, writing, and making, her experience with dyspraxia, cancer, Iceland as a place of transformation, and why honesty is the doorway to real creativity.

    Amy does not romanticize creativity. She respects it. Mastery is earned.

    About Amy Foster

    Amy Skylark Foster, born in Victoria, British Columbia, grew up between Los Angeles and Toronto. She earned her degree at American University’s School of International Service, briefly imagining a career in diplomacy involving kaftans and dinner parties, which, sadly, is not the way diplomacy actually works.

    A nudge from her father, David Foster, (a 16 time Grammy Award winning producer behind artists like Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and Chicago) led her to songwriting, where she co wrote hits like “Home” and “Haven’t Met You Yet” with Michael Bublé. She honed her craft in Nashville, writing lyrics as her full time work, and in the process discovered her true passion in novel writing.

    She is the author of When Autumn Leaves and The Rift trilogy.

    An avid maker, Amy paints, spins, embroiders, knits, and sews both clothing and quilts, while continuing to write novels and the occasional lyric. Now splitting time between Portland and Akureyri, Iceland, she founded Valkyrie Fiber, the first and only Merino Icelandic yarn hybrid, and Valkyrie Craft, where she shares her mixed media art and upcycled creations while building a wider community of makers.

    You can find her on Instagram @amyfosterhere and @valkyriefiber.
