Back to the Heart- Empower Yourself and Manifest Your Quantum Leap

Why We Keep Forgetting How Powerful We Are | Breath, Firewalking & Trusting Yourself

Have you ever felt yourself remembering who you are… only to forget again? Remembering your power, your voice, your truth — and then somehow getting pulled back into old stories, fear, people pleasing, or trying to do everything alone? In this deeply expansive episode of Back to the Heart, I’m joined by the incredible Jess Meister — breathwork facilitator, sound healer, coach, and certified firewalk facilitator — for a conversation that feels like a remembering. We begin with a powerful nervous system reset and explore what it really means to trust yourself, speak your truth, and say yes to the version of you waiting on the other side of fear. Jess shares her transformative journey into firewalking, walking on glass, and stepping into deeper healing after years of navigating family trauma, hyper-independence, and self-protection. Together, we unpack the power of boundaries, nervous system regulation, healing generational patterns, and why support matters more than doing life alone. This episode is for you if you’re learning to trust yourself again, finding your voice, healing old stories, or remembering just how powerful you truly are. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why we forget our power — and how to remember it again ✨ Nervous system regulation + the healing power of breath ✨ Hyper-independence, receiving support, and trusting others again ✨ Firewalking, walking on glass, and stepping through fear ✨ Healing family patterns and generational trauma ✨ Why saying “yes” to yourself changes everything ✨ Boundaries, changing your mind, and trusting your intuition ✨ The connection between voice, truth, and healing Connect with Jess Meister: https://www.instagram.com/iamjessmeister/ [https://www.instagram.com/iamjessmeister/] https://www.mindfulbodyexperience.com [https://www.mindfulbodyexperience.com] Connect with Amanda / Back to the Heart: 🌞 Instagram: @back2theheart2loveme 🎙️ Podcast: Back to the Heart ✨ Free clarity call: https://calendly.com/back2theheart2loveme/30min [https://calendly.com/back2theheart2loveme/30min] Until next time — keep coming Back to the Heart. 🧡 Follow on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/back2theheart2loveme/] Book 1:1 with Amanda [https://calendly.com/back2theheart2loveme/30min]

For the Woman Who Was Told She Was Too Much: Healing the Witch Wound

Have you ever stopped yourself from saying something — and didn't even know why? Have you ever felt like your power, your voice, your knowing was just... too much? Like you needed to shrink to be safe, to be loved, to be accepted? What if that feeling didn't start with you? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Annie McCarty, founder of Reclaiming Her Flame and Trifecta Alchemy practitioner with trauma-informed training in Kundalini, somatics, and lineage healing.  Annie breaks down the witch wound — what it actually is, where it comes from, and why so many women carry this ancient pattern of silence, self-shrinking, and distrust of other women without ever knowing it has a name. This isn't just a spiritual concept. It's backed by history, by epigenetics, and by the lived experience of nearly every woman who has ever been told she was too loud, too emotional, too powerful, or too much. In this episode we explore: * What the witch wound is and the real historical events that created it * Why women struggle to use their voice — and why it goes so much deeper than confidence * How trauma is stored in the body and passed down through generations via our DNA * The connection between the witch wound and the sisterhood wound — why women pull away from other powerful women * Kundalini yoga and somatic practices as tools for releasing what's stored in the body * The sacral chakra, the womb space, and why most women carry so much unprocessed energy there * Why healing yourself is also healing your daughters — and breaking the cycle for good Resources mentioned: * Annie's free Kundalini Energy Practice (Energy Shot): reclaimingherflame.com/energyshot [https://reclaimingherflame.com/energyshot] Connect with Annie: * Website: reclaimingherflame.com If today's episode called something forward in you, Annie's free Kundalini energy practice is waiting for you at reclaimingherflame.com/energyshot.

For Anyone Feeling Burnt Out & Disconnected: How to Come Back to Yourself, Rewrite Your Story, and Reclaim Your Energy

If you’ve been feeling burnt out, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode… this episode is your invitation to come back to yourself. In this powerful conversation, Amanda sits down with burnout recovery coach James Thompson to explore the deeper truth behind burnout—and why it’s not just about doing too much, but about being disconnected from who you truly are.  Together, they unpack how people-pleasing, overgiving, and living in a constant state of “doing” can slowly pull you away from your heart… and what it actually takes to return. James shares his personal journey from working as an oncology nurse on night shift to experiencing deep burnout, grief, and ultimately a complete transformation in how he relates to himself, his health, and his life.  You’ll learn how breathwork, language awareness, and rewriting your internal story can shift you out of victim patterns and back into your power. ✨ In this episode, you’ll discover: *  The real root cause of burnout (it’s not what you think)  *  How disconnection from yourself leads to exhaustion and overwhelm  *  The hidden impact of language like “I have to” vs. “I choose to”  *  Why breath is one of the most powerful tools for regulation and healing  *  How to shift from victim mindset into creator/architect energy  *  A new way to view grief, challenges, and life experiences  *  The 6 foundational pillars of holistic health  This episode is perfect for anyone who feels stuck in healing, overwhelmed by life, or ready to move from surviving to truly living. ✨ You don’t need to do more.  You get to come back to who you are.

How to Integrate After a Retreat & Regulate Your Nervous System

Have you ever experienced a breakthrough… only to come home feeling overwhelmed, emotional, or unsure how to actually implement everything you learned? In this episode of Back to the Heart, Amanda shares her reflections after attending a transformational healing retreat and opens up about what happened when she returned home and struggled with the emotional waves of retreat integration. If you've ever felt stuck in your healing journey, struggled to regulate your nervous system after personal growth work, or wondered why healing can feel messy even after powerful breakthroughs—this episode is for you. Amanda dives into: ✨ Why in-person retreats and healing events accelerate transformation ✨ What no one tells you about post-retreat emotional integration ✨ How healing shifts your relationships and social circles ✨ The connection between embodiment and nervous system regulation ✨ Practical tools for grounding after emotional or spiritual breakthroughs ✨ Why rest is a necessary part of the healing process Amanda also shares the exact practices helping her stay grounded during this season, including silence, writing, movement, nature, breathwork, voice notes, vulnerability, and honoring the body's need for rest. If you're navigating personal growth, spiritual awakening, nervous system healing, or emotional overwhelm—this conversation will help remind you that healing is not linear, and you are not alone.

Ready to Release What’s Been Stuck in Your Body? | Back to the Heart Embodiment Experience

Have you done the inner work, learned the mindset tools, and become aware of your patterns… yet still feel like something inside you refuses to shift? The truth is: awareness alone does not create transformation.  If healing stays in the mind and never moves through the body, you continue carrying the same emotional patterns, nervous system responses, and subconscious stories. In this episode, Amanda shares why true healing requires embodiment—and invites you into the Back to the Heart Embodiment Experience, a fully immersive healing event designed to help you release emotional blocks, reconnect to your body, and integrate the healing you’ve intellectually understood. Inside this experience, you’ll receive:  ✨ Nervous system reset yoga + movement  ✨ Human Design guidance to reconnect with your body’s wisdom  ✨ Story work to uncover hidden subconscious patterns  ✨ Conscious connection with plant allies (optional)  ✨ Guided breathwork for emotional release and expansion This is for anyone who: *  Understands their patterns but still struggles to change them  *  Feels disconnected from their body  *  Is ready to release emotional heaviness stored in the nervous system  *  Wants to embody peace, confidence, freedom, and self-trust  If your heart knows there is more available for you… this is your invitation. https://back2theheart.kit.com/products/back-2-the-heart-embodiment-experience Follow on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/back2theheart2loveme/] Book 1:1 with Amanda [https://calendly.com/back2theheart2loveme/30min]
