What if belonging didn’t require shrinking who you are? We open the door to a different kind of wellness journey—one built on authenticity, embodied practices, and community that feels like home.

Laura shares how a messy, heartfelt start in the early YouTube era sparked a global community of women who showed up for realness over perfection. Kayla adds the next chapter: a spiritual awakening in college, a leap from corporate to Pilates and somatic work, and a clear lesson that aliveness is the best compass for a meaningful life.

Together, we explore the tension between curation and connection and why many of us are craving deeper, longer experiences over quick tips and hacks. We talk about the healing power of women gathering with intention, the science-meets-spirit insights learned through Dr. Joe Dispenza’s work, and how nervous system regulation, breath, and movement can unlock profound change. You’ll hear stories of transformation, practical tools to return to your body, and a reminder that the goal isn’t to become a new person—it’s to remember the truest version of you.

We also share details of our Self Love Reset Retreat in Tulum: March 5-9, 2026 five days of Pilates, yoga, EFT tapping, self-compassion work, Mayan sound healing, cacao ceremony, beach rituals, and built-in time to rest or explore.

Solo travelers are welcome, multigenerational duos are encouraged, and every attendee co-creates the space with presence and care. If you’ve been looking for a place where authenticity and belonging can finally coexist, consider this your invitation.

If this resonated, follow the show, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and leave a review so more women can find this community. Your story and your light matter here.

Roberta Ravella - The Joy Experiment

The Heart and Science of reating Joy, Ease & Flow in Your Life and Business

What if joy wasn’t the reward after the grind, but the operating system from the start? In this episode, we sit down with Roberta Ravella, creator of The Joy Experiment, to explore how aligning your work with your energetic values turns hustle into flow and marketing into a magnet—not a megaphone.

Roberta shares her shift from top mortgage marketing strategist to a coach who centers ease, clarity, and self-trust—and what happened when success still felt off until she learned to follow the energy, not the noise.

We dive into The Joy Experiment’s Energetic Values Frequency framework—Impactful Guide, Visionary Creator, Sovereign Explorer, and Resonant Connector—revealing how each shines in alignment (and what misalignment looks like). You’ll leave with practical ways to design your week, choose your marketing channels, and reset your nervous system when push turns to strain.

Plus: three simple shifts you can try today—morning appreciation, a news detox, and micro-resets that bring you back to center. If you’ve been taught that struggle earns success, consider this your permission slip to build with ease, trust your intuition, and let joy be the strategy.
