Ep 6: Staying With Yourself When Everything Feels Too Heavy
There are moments in life when everything just feels… heavy. When everything feels overwhelming in a quiet, yet consuming way that makes even the smallest steps feel impossible. In this episode of The Rediscovered Self, we explore what’s really happening in those moments—not from a place of judgment, but through the lens of the nervous system, mindful awareness, and self-compassion. If you’ve ever found yourself shutting down, losing motivation, craving comfort, or feeling like all of your progress disappears when things get hard… this episode is for you. You’ll lea...

Ep 5: Anything But Nothing: An Gentle Way Out of Procrastination & Perfectionism
In this episode, I share a simple but powerful mantra that came to me during one of the hardest seasons of my life—postpartum depression—and how it continues to shape the way I move through procrastination, perfectionism, and taking action today. “Anything but nothing.” What started as a survival tool—helping me to take even the smallest steps when everything felt too overwhelming—has become a grounded, compassionate practice for moving forward when I feel stuck. And it can support you, too, in moving toward your soul's purpose and highest expression of self ... tod...

Bonus: The Original Transmission of The Missing Piece in Your Healing Journey and Why It's not Your Fault
HI Friends, I kept feeling this quiet tug to share the original, raw download and transmission of Episode 4: The Missing Piece in Your Healing Journey and Why it's Not Your Fault. Last Monday, April 13th, 2026, I received this message. It came through me without any planning or preparation. I had simply been moved while listening to music while driving home from drop off that morning. I came home ready to record an episode around the power of music in regulating our nervous systems, and out came this episode around: -my own h...

Ep 4: The Missing Piece in Your Healing Journey and Why It's not Your Fault
In this episode, I share a personal reflection on something I have come to understand about healing: information alone is not what transforms us. If you’ve been feeling stuck in your healing journey—despite doing the work, learning, making changes and trying to understand yourself—this episode offers a different perspective. Sometimes what we need most is not more education, more strategy, more pushing, or even more insight. Sometimes what we need is a safe enough space for the body to soften, open, and finally receive support. In this...

Ep 3: When Mothers Lose Themselves: The Quiet Disconnection No One Talks About
There’s a quiet moment many mothers experience—but rarely speak about. The moment you realize… you don’t quite feel like yourself anymore. In this episode of The Rediscovered Self, Erica explores the subtle, often invisible ways mothers can lose connection with who they are—through the demands of caregiving, the pressure to hold everything together, and the slow drift away from their own inner world. This isn’t about self judgement, blame, or even the pressure to do something to "fix yourself." This is about bringing this very common and understa...

Ep 2: My Story— When Your Body Calls and Your Soul Whispers You Back Home
In this episode of The Rediscovered Self, Erica shares more of her personal story and the journey that brought her back home to herself. Through the lens of motherhood, burnout, and chronic illness, she explores what it means to pause, reflect, and process in a world that asks us to hustle, push through, and ignore the wisdom of the body. Instead of seeing our symptoms as wrong, Erica invites us to consider them as the sacred communication of our body’s wisdom— an invitation toward healing, deeper presence, and transformation. She reflects on: t...

Ep 1: Healing is Remembering: Motherhood, Burnout, and Remembering Who you Are
In this opening episode of The Rediscovered Self, Erica explores the idea that healing isn’t about becoming someone new — it’s about remembering who you were before survival mode took over. Through reflections on motherhood, burnout, nervous system regulation, and spiritual integration, this episode reframes exhaustion, over-researching, and self-doubt as protective intelligence and a doorway toward growth, rather than personal failure. You’ll hear about: Motherhood as an initiation into deeper embodiment Burnout as information, not weakness The nervous system as sacred intelligence Rest and creativity as wisdom...
