Please share your thoughts about how you felt about the episode and/or podcast! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2015915/fan_mail/new] There comes a moment in life when what once felt aligned begins to feel complete—not because it was wrong, but because you've grown into a different version of yourself. In this personal episode, I'm sharing the story behind my decision to leaving a company I'd worked with 7 years as a holistic health coach and moving into a new position. This isn't just about changing careers; it's about honoring the seasons of our lives, trusting our intuition, and finding the courage to answer the quiet whispers calling us toward expansion. If you're standing at a crossroads, sensing that something in your life is shifting, or wondering whether it's for a change that supports your evolution, this conversation is for you. In this episode, you'll learn: * Why every season of life has a purpose—even the ones we eventually outgrow. * How to recognize the difference between fear and your intuition. * The power of honoring endings with gratitude while embracing new beginnings. ✨ If you're ready to reconnect with yourself and navigate your own season of transformation with compassionate support, I'd love to walk alongside you. I help women reconnect with themselves and cultivate sustainable, holistic self-care—without guilt—so they can create a life that feels calmer, more intentional, and deeply nourishing from the inside out.  Work with Me via Nourish [https://signup.nourish.com/providers/marissa-prieto?referralSource=Nourish+dietitian&referralName=Marissa+Prieto&utm_source=Nourish_dietitian&utm_term=Marissa_Prieto] Chapters 00:00 Introduction and episode overview 00:31 Marissa shares her personal journey and decision to leave her job 02:26 The importance of honoring seasons and trusting intuition 04:38 Grounding and mindfulness practice 09:51 Trusting the timing of life and recognizing signs 11:00 Reflecting on past experiences and lessons learned 14:34 The concept of expansion and growth 21:20 Balancing gratitude and fear during transitions 27:46 Letting go with gratitude and embracing new opportunities 42:37 Final thoughts: Every season has a purpose 43:24 Supporting women through seasons of change If you are feeling called to work together and would like more information about my services, I invite you to apply to work with me using the link below. https://beacons.page/marissaprieto [https://beacons.page/marissaprieto] If you would like to share your holistic health and healing journey on the podcast, please email me at marissaprieto.holisticcoaching@gmail.com Connect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holistichealthcoachingformoms/ [https://www.instagram.com/holistichealthcoachingformoms/] Access my free guided meditations on You Tube: www.youtube.com/@MindfulMeditationswithMarissa [http://www.youtube.com/@MindfulMeditationswithMarissa] Loved this episode?

63. How a Miscarriage Led to Spiritual Awakening and Energy Healing with Macarena

Please share your thoughts about how you felt about the episode and/or podcast! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2015915/fan_mail/new] In this powerful episode of A Mother's Journey to Holistic Health and Healing, I sit down with energy healing practitioner Macarena to explore how one of life's most heartbreaking experiences—a miscarriage—became the catalyst for profound spiritual awakening, healing, and purpose. Macarena shares her deeply personal journey through grief, loss, and the search for meaning. After years of seeking answers through various healing modalities, spiritual practices, and external experiences, she discovered that true healing begins within. She opens up about how being guided to energy healing transformed her life, helping her reconnect with her intuition, soul purpose, and gifts. Together, we discuss spiritual awakening, energy healing, divine unconditional love, and the difference between authentic healing and spiritual bypassing. Macarena also shares how her journey led her to create Divine Love Quantum Healing, a modality rooted in helping others heal and remember who they truly are. Whether you're navigating grief, feeling disconnected from yourself, searching for purpose, or curious about energy healing and spiritual growth, this conversation offers hope, inspiration, and a reminder that even our deepest pain can become a doorway to transformation. In this episode, we discuss: * Spiritual awakening through grief * Intuition and reconnecting with your authentic self * Shadow work and emotional healing * Spiritual bypassing versus true healing * Divine unconditional love * Energy healing and quantum healing * Finding purpose through life's challenges Connect with Macarena: https://www.bloomingrose.love/ [https://www.bloomingrose.love/] Macarena's Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/bloomingrose.love] If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who may need this message today.

60. Tarot as a Healing Modality: Somatics & Motherhood with Sonia Fregoso

Please share your thoughts about how you felt about the episode and/or podcast! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2015915/fan_mail/new] In today’s episode, I’m welcoming back Sonia Fregoso for an inspiring and soul-expanding conversation around motherhood, intuition, somatics, and tarot as a healing modality. When Sonia first came on the podcast, she vulnerably shared her journey healing from childhood sexual trauma through somatic work, spirituality, and plant medicine-assisted psychedelic therapy while navigating pregnancy after infertility. Now, one year later, she returns in a completely new season — motherhood, deeper spiritual embodiment, and the creation of a beautiful oracle deck she co-created with her sister. Together, we explore how tarot can become a powerful tool for self-awareness, nervous system healing, intuition, reflection, and ancestral connection rather than something to fear. Sonia also shares how her work has evolved, what motherhood has taught her about healing, and the intention behind creating a deck rooted in wisdom, healing, and reconnection. This conversation is for anyone navigating healing, burnout, identity shifts, motherhood, spirituality, or the desire to reconnect back to themselves in a deeper way. In this episode we talk about: ✨ Tarot as a healing modality & the misconceptions ✨ Somatic healing & nervous system work ✨ Healing trauma & reconnecting to intuition ✨ Motherhood & identity shifts ✨ The creation of Sonia’s new tarot deck ✨ Reclaiming self-trust  If this episode resonates with you, show some love subscribe, leave a review, and share with someone who may need this conversation today!
