Woo² | Oracle Cards: Predictive, Prescriptive or Both?
Get ready to expand your perspective on the purpose of Oracle Cards!
As a seasoned card creator and reader, I discovered that Oracle cards aren’t always about predicting the future. Sometimes, they serve as a catalyst for personal transformation - a chance for you to create a new YOU!
On this episode of Woo² my Executive Producer, Connie Diletti, and I talk about the difference between the nature of oracle cards being predictive, prescriptive and/or both. With real-life examples of successful (and not-so-successful) readings, we show you how prescriptive readings can help you bridge the gap and gain magical insights into your potential future.
Join us on an unforgettable Oracle adventure Inside the Wooniverse!

SPIRIT & RECOVERY | Soulbriety, Inner-Work & Recovery with Dr. Elisa Hallerman
Welcome to the final episode of SPIRIT & RECOVERY, our 5-part podcast series exploring powerful healing modalities, philosophies and soulful practices that are designed to support recovery - on all levels - from trauma, addiction, harmful behaviors and more.
The relationship between sobriety and a belief in a higher power (or the soul) can vary greatly from person to person, yet in my experience, there is no sobriety without Spirit. So, what does a soulful approach to sobriety look like?
In this episode we’re joined by Dr. Elisa Hallerman, founder of Recovery Management Agency, and the author of “Soulbriety: Heal Your Trauma, Overcome Addiction and Reconnect with Your Soul”. At the age of 43, at the height of her wildly successful career as a top Hollywood agent, Dr. Hallerman left the entertainment world to step into her true life purpose and went back to school to get her Ph.D. in somatic depth psychology - the study of bringing unconscious psychological material into the light of awareness.
In this conversation we talk about the multiple faces of addiction, recovering from ‘soul loss’ and the insightful concept of Soulbriety.

Welcome to the fourth episode of SPIRIT & RECOVERY, our 5-part podcast series exploring powerful healing modalities, philosophies and soulful practices that are designed to support recovery - on all levels - from trauma, addiction, harmful behaviors and more.
How do you define recovery? I think of recovery as the process of recovering the initiation and the potentiality of your life. It can also be seen as an opportunity to explore new and innovative ways of healing, growing and flourishing in a rapidly changing world.
In this episode we’re joined by Dr. Bayo Akomolafe, a celebrated international speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, public intellectual, essayist, psychologist and author. Rooted with the Yoruba people, Dr. Bayo is the Founder of The Emergence Network, host of the online postactivist course/festival series, ‘We Will Dance with Mountains’ and lectures at Pacifica Graduate Institute, California and University of Vermont.
In this conversation we explore the redefinition of recovery and re-pair, the power of uncertainty and the reevaluation of what we fear.

Is it possible to overcome trauma and find peace? While not everyone is affected by trauma, for those who are, it can have a lasting effect on their life. One possible solution is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a 36-year old form of psychotherapy making a resurgence due to its potency in helping people process and resolve traumatic memories.
In this episode we’re joined by Tammy Valicenti, a renowned psychotherapist with 25-years of experience and expertise in trauma recovery and EMDR therapy. She is the founder of the Transformation Solution, a system that utilizes a synthesis of EMDR, Internal Family Systems and other evidence-based therapies to achieve radical life-changing results in a short period of time.
In this conversation we talk about the power of Tammy’s Transformation Solution, the opportunities for growth that trauma presents, and how we can move beyond the role of victim and create a new narrative for our lives.

Woo² | Getting Started with Shadow Work
On this episode of Woo², my Executive Producer Connie and I delve into the complexities of shadow work.
Shadow work involves uncovering and addressing the parts of yourself that you hide and repress, such as past traumas or aspects of your personality that you consider undesirable. It can be intimidating and overwhelming to confront your shadow, but with support and guidance, small changes can lead to radical transformation.
The path to healing is not just about love and light, it's also about exploring and embracing your shadow. By facing your shadow, you can make the impossible possible and rise to become the person you know you are meant to be. Together, let's be a beacon in the darkness and embrace our whole selves!

Woo² | When a Reading Doesn't Resonate
If you've listened to this podcast, it's likely that you've received or given a reading at some point. But what do you do when a reading doesn't resonate with you?
Haven’t we all had an experience where during a session the words just aren’t clicking and we walk away feeling deflated and disappointed? I once had a psychic tell me that my music career would take off and that I wouldn't be successful as an Intuitive Coach, which I knew wasn't true!
On this episode of Woo2, my Executive Producer Connie and I discuss the difference between not liking a reading and resisting its message, versus when a reading is completely off the mark and doesn’t feel aligned. We also talk about how to discern when a reading is accurate - even if you're not ready to hear it or accept what's being said.

Woo² | The Power of 8
Season 3 of Inside the Wooniverse is right around the corner and we are kicking it off with a fascinating discussion on "The Power of 8" with the masterful Lynne McTaggart.

I also share my own personal experience with a healing circle and the incredible power of this type of group. If you're looking for a supportive and intentional community, don't miss this powerful discussion!

Woo² | The Magic of Vision Boards
Why create a vision board?
Let me start by sharing that I’ve created a vision board a year for the last 35-years. A vision board can help bring your big visions and soul-led desires to life by providing a tangible way to connect with those desires. My husband and I make one every year together, and I love leading my annual Vision Board Challenge every January (BTW there’s still time to sign-up and join us now!).
For me, vision boarding is more than just listing material possessions or goals. It's about creating a physical representation of the experiences and feelings we want to manifest in our lives. It’s also important to reflect on what your vision board is calling in and adjust as-needed (Trust me, there were many times I put something on my board - and Spirit showed me a whole other plan!)
On this episode of Woo2 my Executive Producer, Connie Diletti and I discuss the magic of vision boards, setting intentions, using affirmations and the importance of clarifying your ‘whys’ when vision boarding.

Woo² | Synchronicity
Who doesn't love synchronicities?!
We love this magical, auspicious topic here on Inside the Wooniverse, so today on Woo² my Executive Producer, Connie Diletti and I, will be exploring synchronicity more in depth.
Can it be just a coincidence? Or is there a cosmic organization constantly working and weaving our lives together? From meeting my husband to hiring Connie to produce my podcast, there are so many examples of synchronistic, jaw-dropping moments that could not have happened by chance.
Perfect timing, awe inspiring events, people and places that catapult you forward; we believe there is an intelligent thread that pulls you through the toughest of challenges, the tightest of spots and provides you exactly with what you need to grow and evolve in this life - and that thread is called Synchronicity!

Woo² | Getting Started with Meditation
Relax. Breathe. Fidget with your fingers. Focus on the lady behind you that smells like a plume of bad perfume. Chase the ideas around in your head for the next ten minutes. Grab onto the most stressful ones first - like paying your bills or the fight you just got into with your partner...
Wait, no! That’s not how it’s meant to go!
On this episode of Woo2 my producers, Connie Diletti, Julie Fink and myself discuss the topic of meditation. We chat about our own meditation practices and give ideas on how to get started with your own practice. No matter the level - whether you are a beginner or an expert, we are here to give you additional support and to celebrate this amazing, ancient calming tradition.
