Having a difficult relationship with your mother is never not going to suck. It just sucks a little more on Mother's Day. Whether you went no contact, need to enforce strict boundaries, or otherwise manage a "toxic" or narcissistic personality, Mother's Day can be a big trigger. In fact, I didn't realize I was triggered until I realized that I had been in a funk for days since realizing 'tis the season.

In this episode, I share what I experience being no contact with my mother for the past 7 years, my journey healing with Ayuascha, and the power of CHOOSING what we do and do not allow to impact our lives as adults today. 

On this episode of Morgan, May I? I am joined by intuitive coach, Alexandra Mollon to talk about her journey going off of hormonal birth control (IUD + oral) after a decade of use. We dive into the why, the how, the ups, and the downs of making the empowered decision to live fully connected to herself- physically and emotionally. We also discuss femininity, shadow work, and the relationship we have with our bodies.

Alex Mollon has followed her intuition across careers and the country; from leaving a job at a top global ad agency in NYC, to help grow a small agency in SC, to living an intuitive life in CO. She listened. She listened when it called her to a community of empowered women here in CO. And yet again, when it called her to remove her IUD. The journey of following her gut and allowing her divine feminine wisdom to shine through has been liberating, and her goal is now to help other women step into their power by re-aligning with the innate wisdom of their bodies to live a happier, more intuitive life.

In this episode, we discuss dopamine addiction, how it manifests in quarantine, and why now is the perfect time for a dopamine detox. We break down why we may be more drawn to things like social media, our phones, and comfort food right now, what is really stopping us from not being as productive or creative as we'd like to be with our extra time, as well as reviewing successful strategies for dopamine detox. I share my personal dopamine fast story as well as my hugely positive results.
