In this deeply inspiring conversation, spiritual life coach Connie Costa shares how she broke free from the inner critic and societal expectations to reclaim her truth, her health, and her joy — and how moving to Italy transformed not just her soul, but her body. From her early days as a traditional psychotherapist in Los Angeles to building a spiritually aligned coaching practice and living her dream life in Sicily, Connie opens up about the fierce blowback of stepping into your authentic voice, the radical difference between the food and lifestyle in Italy versus the U.S., and how slowing down to truly live can heal what you thought was unfixable. If you’ve ever felt silenced, stuck, or disconnected from your body and your purpose, this episode is your reminder that everything can change the moment you decide to listen to your soul.
