The Living Matters Podcast
From Victimhood to Sovereignty — with Tena Cacic

In this episode, Aypril talks with Tena Cacic — teacher, energy healer, writer, and scientist — about what it truly means to move from victimhood to sovereignty.

Tena’s story is one of profound loss, deep questioning, and ultimately, freedom.

After losing her newborn son and later learning that her daughter was born with a rare genetic condition, Tena’s world was turned upside down. Those experiences led her to explore beyond science into energy, emotion, and consciousness.

Through that journey, she discovered what she calls the Victim Game — the unconscious roles of victim, villain, and savior we all play — and how releasing them opens the door to true safety and abundance.

Together, Aypril and Tena explore:

  • Healing after loss and the path from grief to neutrality

  • Recognizing victim patterns and energy leaks

  • The link between safety, nervous system regulation, and abundance

  • A short guided clearing on money, receiving, and self-worth

  • How compassion, boundaries, and awareness help us reclaim our power

Tena’s work bridges science and spirituality, helping people free themselves from suffering and live as their most authentic selves.

Keep the Human in Human Design — with Jonah Dempcy

Author and teacher Jonah Dempcy joins Aypril to discuss his new book The Human Design Cult and the deeper questions it raises about belief, integrity, and personal agency within the Human Design space.Jonah shares stories from his early mentors and teachers in Human Design—people who studied directly with Ra Uru Hu—and reflects on how the system has evolved over time and how our understanding of it continues to expand.Together, Aypril and Jonah explore:- The origins of “keep HD cult free” and why critical thinking matters in spiritual systems- How even a powerful tool like HD can become its own source of conditioning- Why some teachings (like “no choice” or “the not-self”) can inadvertently remove agency- How to restore empowerment, nuance, and personal responsibility to readings- The grief and liberation that come with leaving or reshaping a belief communityJonah also shares insights from other typology systems—like Enneagram, Attitudinal Psyche, and Objective Personality—and what makes a teaching or community “safe” versus controlling.Key Quote:“It’s called Human Design, not Robot Design. We are human beings—this system should help us remember that.”📘 The Human Design Cult is available on Amazon, with ebook and audiobook editions coming soon.

Community Over Algorithms: Building Real Visibility with Megan Gillespie of Olympia Boss Society

What if the key to growing your business wasn’t another reel, but real relationships?

In this episode of Living Matters, Aypril sits down with Megan Gillespie, visibility mentor, podcast host, and founder of the Olympia Boss Society (OBS). Megan shares her entrepreneurial journey from hairstylist to real estate to community builder—and how each chapter led her to create a different kind of networking space for women entrepreneurs.

Together, we explore:

  • Why traditional networking often feels forced and “icky” (and how to do it differently)

  • How Megan created the Olympia Boss Society to bring genuine connection back into business

  • The importance of in-person community, even if your business is primarily online

  • Human Design insights into Megan’s chart as a 2/4 Emotional Manifesting Generator and how it shapes her leadership and visibility

  • Boundaries, recharging, and why modeling self-care matters as much as modeling success

Whether you’re local to Olympia or growing an online business anywhere, this conversation will remind you that you don’t have to hustle the algorithm alone—your growth is amplified when you’re truly seen, supported, and in community.

    Teresa Lodato ~ Intuitive Leadership: Accessing Your Inner Wisdom
    Intuitive Leadership: Accessing Your Inner Wisdom with Teresa Lodato


    In this enlightening episode, Teresa Lodato, known as the Modern Day Oracle, shares her journey from financial services to becoming an intuitive guide for women leaders. She discusses how trauma, stress, and burnout can disconnect us from our natural intuitive gifts, and provides practical insights on reconnecting with our inner wisdom while maintaining healthy energetic boundaries in today's challenging world.


    About Teresa Lodato:

    Teresa Lodato is an intuitive guide with a master's level background in psychology and advanced certifications in neuroscience, relational trauma, and the psychology of negotiation. After experiencing burnout in her 20-year financial services career and navigating a toxic marriage, she reconnected with her intuitive gifts and now helps women leaders access their own intuitive powers. As a Karuna Reiki master with training in angelic Reiki, she combines Eastern and Western approaches to support professional women in achieving both success and fulfillment.


    Key Insights on Intuition and Energy:
    • Everyone has intuitive gifts; the key is removing blocks that prevent access to them
    • Trauma and stress responses can override our natural intuitive abilities
    • The body serves as a tuning fork for truth and intuitive insights
    • Healthy emotional regulation is crucial for accessing clear, intuitive guidance
    • Our energy field extends beyond our physical body and requires conscious management
    • Burnout often results from not maintaining proper energetic boundaries

    Cultural Integration Challenges:
    • Western culture often dismisses energetic and intuitive practices that are accepted in Eastern traditions
    • Professional environments may not readily embrace intuitive decision-making

    Claire Cetti ~ Breaking the Yelling Cycle: Finding Calm in Parenting
    Breaking the Yelling Cycle: Finding Calm in Parenting with Claire Cetti


    In this enlightening episode, Claire Cetti, known as the "yell less mom coach," shares her transformative journey from experiencing parental rage to becoming a certified parent coach. She offers valuable insights on managing parental frustration, setting healthy boundaries, and creating meaningful connections with children, drawing from both her professional expertise and personal experience as a mother of four grown children.


    About Claire Cetti:

    Claire Cetti is a PCI certified parent coach and positive parenting educator who specializes in helping parents manage frustration and anger. With over ten years of experience, she works primarily with parents of children ages 3-13, though her techniques apply to all ages. As a stepmom and mom to four grown children, Claire brings both professional expertise and personal experience to her coaching practice. She is also certified as a corporate paid leave coach and is currently pursuing certification as a mother wound coach.


    Key Insights on Parenting:
    • Common triggers for parental anger include feeling powerless, out of control, and unheard
    • Understanding emotional zones (green, red, blue) is crucial for managing reactions
    • Parents often try to use logic when children are in an emotional state
    • The importance of waiting for children to return to a "green zone" before problem-solving
    • How past experiences with anger can impact current parenting styles
    • The significance of genuine apologies in healing parent-child relationships

    Practical Parenting Strategies:
    • Learning to recognize and manage stress responses
    • Understanding the difference between emotional and logical states
    • Setting and maintaining healthy boundaries
    • Reducing mental load through delegation and saying "no"
    • Acknowledging and validating children's emotions
    • Focusing on progress rather than perfection in parenting
    • Taking time to recognize daily parenting wins

    Recommended Approach for Working with Children's Emotions:
    • Allow children to process emotions without trying to "talk them out of it"
    • Maintain steady presence during emotional outbursts
    • Set clear physical boundaries while allowing emotional expression
    • Wait for regulation before engaging in problem-solving
    • Practice co-regulation through calm presence

    Notable Quote:

    "Your kids got fed, right? Whatever that might be, just find those things and say to yourself, I did a good job today. I did do something well today. Because that can leave you with a little bit of hope of feeling better to move forward to the next day." - Claire Cetti

    Is Your Inner Child is Running Your Business?

    What if the real reason you’re stuck in burnout, self-doubt, or undercharging isn’t about your business strategy—but about who's really calling the shots inside of you?


    In this episode Aypril Porter breaks down how unresolved childhood patterns—left unchecked—sneak into your pricing, client relationships, energy levels, and visibility. Through the lens of Human Design and reparenting, you’ll learn how emotional authority, nervous system wiring, and people-pleasing tendencies are often rooted in your earliest experiences.


    If you’ve ever felt like your business doesn’t feel safe, sustainable, or fully like you—this episode will feel like a warm light of recognition and a loving invitation to shift.


    You’ll hear:

    • Signs your inner child is running your business
    • The connection between burnout and your nervous system
    • How emotional and open emotional centers impact decision-making
    • Why it’s not about more strategy—it’s about self-trust


    ✨ Let this episode be the permission slip your inner child never got.
