In this heartfelt episode of the Self-Care Goddess Podcast, I sit down with Natalie Mascucci, empowerment coach, motivational speaker, and author of It’s Okay Not to Feel Okay, to explore the tender and transformative journey of grief, loss, and emotional healing.

Natalie shares her personal story of overcoming trauma and rediscovering purpose, offering powerful wisdom for women navigating change, midlife transitions, and emotional pain.

✅ Why grief isn’t just about death — and how loss shows up in everyday life (from menopause to empty nesting)

✅ The connection between breathwork and releasing grief stored in the lungs

✅ How women process loss differently — and why acknowledging your emotions is the first step to healing

✅ Cognitive reframing tools to shift from “why me?” to “what is this teaching me?”

✅ How to use gratitude, affirmations, and perspective shifts to build resilience

✅ The healing power of tears, music, and movement as emotional release

Show Notes:

When considering hormone therapy, it's essential to ask informed questions and choose a practitioner with comprehensive knowledge—not just someone who follows a single treatment approach. Here are some key questions to ask a healthcare provider before starting hormone therapy:

-Do they only provide hormone pellets, or dothey offer various dosing options?

-Do they assess additional factors like adrenalfunction, thyroid health, and insulin levels?

- Are they well-versed in supplements and diet as part of hormone therapy?

-Are the nurse practitioners or physician assistants also qualified in this area?

In this podcast conversation, Dara McKinley, a forgiveness teacher with a background in Buddhist psychology, explores the transformative power of forgiveness beyond conventional ideas of pardoning or letting go of anger. She shares her personal journey, including a painful business rupture and subsequent health crisis, which led her to develop a structured, practical approach to forgiveness.

Dara defines forgiveness as the application of unconditional love to emotional wounds, highlighting its connection to emotional regulation, intuition, and the right hemisphere of the brain. She introduces her six-week course, which guides participants through a three-week protocol to recognize and harness unconditional love for healing. The conversation also delves into the importance of acknowledging emotions rather than suppressing them, using breathwork and meditation as tools for emotional processing. Dara's insights challenge traditional views, reframing forgiveness as a tangible, somatic practice that fosters inner peace and enhances intuitive abilities.

In this enlightening conversation we discussed:

✅ Dara McKinley's Journey to Forgiveness Teacher

✅ Defining Forgiveness and Its Challenges

In this episode of the Self-Care Goddess Podcast #152, Carole Murko, a mindset self-mastery and health coach, shares her transformative journey of self-healing from a serious eye disease, highlighting the profound impact of practices like breathwork, meditation and journaling.

Drawing inspiration from Dr. Joe Dispenza’s teachings on the neuroscience of change, Carole explains how thoughts and emotions shape brain chemistry, influencing health and well-being. She emphasizes the importance of self-love, conscious eating and nature in fostering healing and shares insights from her "Change Your Mind, Create New Results" program. Advocating for the power of belief and intentional lifestyle changes, Carole inspires listeners to embrace their innate healing potential and cultivate a deeper connection with themselves.

In this enlightening conversation we discussed:

✅ Carol Merkel's Healing Journey

✅ The Science of Neuro Change Solutions

✅ Challenges of Healing for Older Generations

✅ Neuroplasticity and Reprogramming Beliefs

✅ The Structure and Impact of Carol's Program

✅ The Role of Nature and Daily Self-Care Habits
