  #50 Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn | Reclaiming the Feminine Shadow

  Sep 22, 202625 min

  What happens when the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to suppress, shame, or reject begin demanding our attention? In this episode of Alive & Awake , Alicia explores the significance of Black Moon Lilith moving into Capricorn for a nine-month journey through June 2027, and what this may bring to the surface around authority, power, responsibility, authenticity, and self-worth. Alicia also shares a personal relationship experience that revealed deeper patterns around conflict, self-expression, and the ways we can abandon ourselves in an effort to maintain peace. In this episode, we explore: • The significance of Black Moon Lilith moving through Capricorn • The shadow aspects of authority, power, responsibility, and worth • Reclaiming the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to judge or suppress • How family programming shapes our relationship with power and authenticity • How conscious relationships can become corrective experiences for old wounds • Using your birth chart to explore the area of life being activated over the next nine months If old triggers, relationship patterns, or uncomfortable emotions are surfacing right now, they may be inviting you into deeper self-awareness, not deeper self-abandonment. Your reflection: Where does Capricorn fall in your birth chart, and what might that area of your life be asking you to reclaim? Share what comes up for you in the comments. Next episode: We begin exploring how the ego is formed and how our personality develops in response to our early experiences of safety, connection, and survival.

  #49 Inner Conflict: Ego vs. Soul | Why You Feel Stuck Between Fear & FreedomConflict: Ego vs. Soul (Which one is ruling you?)

  Aug 31, 202621 min

  What happens when the part of you that wants to feel safe is at war with the part of you that wants to feel free? In this episode of Alive & Awake , we dive into the internal conflict between the ego and the soul, and why the spiritual path can sometimes make that conflict feel even louder. The ego is constantly asking, “Is it safe to be myself?” while the soul is calling us toward authenticity, freedom, self-expression, and expansion. I share more of my personal journey toward sacred union and the deep inner work that was required to release fear, distrust, and old patterns so I could become the woman who could fully receive the relationship I had always desired. Along the way, we explore why our relationships, experiences, and triggers can reveal where we are still hiding, protecting, or abandoning ourselves. In this episode, we explore: The difference between the ego/personality self and the soul/true self Why the ego's primary goal is safety rather than freedom How fear can keep us from speaking our truth and pursuing our desires The internal question beneath so many protective patterns: “Is it safe to be myself?” How the ego encourages us to conform, belong, and stay within what feels familiar Why the soul calls us toward authenticity, individuality, creativity, and expansion The difference between perceived external safety and the experience of inner safety Why we cannot experience true outer union without first developing inner union How this inner conflict can show up in relationships, career, self-expression, and purpose Learning to recognize whether you're listening to the voice of fear or the calling of your soul If you've been feeling torn between who you've been conditioned to be and who you're being called to become, this episode is an invitation to get radically honest with yourself. Where are you still abandoning yourself for a perceived sense of safety, and what is your soul actually calling you to pursue? In the next episode, we'll dive deeper into how the ego is formed and the different parts of our personality , beginning to uncover what exists underneath the protective patterns. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 The Internal Conflict Between Ego & Soul 1:37 My Journey Toward Sacred Union 4:47 Why the Ego Wants You to Feel Safe 5:32 The Soul’s Desire for Freedom & Authenticity 6:27 Understanding the Ego vs. the Soul 8:00 What My 10-Page Letter Revealed About My Ego 10:39 Learning to Trust God & My Own Divinity 11:28 How the Ego Keeps You Stuck in Fear 13:38 How Ego & Soul Compete for Your Attention 16:01 The Path Is Revealed by Walking It 17:32 How Much Do You Trust the Desire of Your Heart? 18:31 Inner Union Comes Before Outer Union 19:01 The Deeper Work of Remembering Your Radiance 20:01 Where Are You Still Abandoning Yourself?

  Episode #48

  #48 I Was Being Prepared for Sacred Union (God Answered My Prayer)

  Aug 14, 202627 min

  Have you ever wondered why the same patterns, triggers, or challenges keep showing up in your life? What if they aren't here to punish you... but to prepare you? In this deeply personal episode, I share the profound shifts that unfolded during this year's Lion's Gate Portal and how what felt like old wounds resurfacing was actually my soul preparing me for one of the biggest blessings of my life: stepping into sacred partnership with my fiancé. For years, I believed changing my circumstances would finally bring me peace. Instead, I discovered that true transformation begins within. As I healed old wounds, released limiting beliefs, and learned to extend grace to myself, my outer reality began to reflect the inner work I had been doing all along. If you've been feeling triggered, stretched, or like life is asking more of you than ever before, this episode is an invitation to see your challenges through a different lens. Your nervous system, your soul, and your heart may be preparing you for a reality greater than you can currently imagine. In this episode, we explore: Why life's biggest challenges are often initiations into your next level of growth. How your inner world creates your outer reality. The connection between healing, nervous system regulation, and manifestation. Why your triggers reveal what is ready to be healed, not what is wrong with you. How self-compassion, forgiveness, and surrender create space for profound transformation. The power of aligning your beliefs with the reality you're ready to create. Your outer reality isn't created by luck or circumstance. It begins with the relationship you have with yourself. If this episode resonates with you, I'd love to hear what landed most. Share it with a friend, leave a review, or tag me on social media so we can continue awakening together. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 Why Your Reality Isn't Changing 1:48 Lion's Gate & The Wake-Up Call 4:12 My Nervous System Was Preparing Me 7:05 Healing Before the Blessing 10:41 The Stories We Tell Ourselves 14:26 Giving Yourself Grace 18:10 Triggers Are Invitations 21:47 Your Identity Creates Your Reality 25:33 Becoming the Version of You That Can Receive 29:12 Final Reflections Connect with Alicia: Be a guest on the show: https://aliciakay.as.me/awakenwithalicia Sign up for my newsletter for monthly tools and tips!

  Episode #47

  #47 She Thought She Was Unlovable... Until This Breakthrough | Awaken with Alicia

  Aug 4, 202648 min

  What if the belief that you've carried your entire life... simply isn't true? In this powerful Awaken with Alicia coaching session, I sit down with Sonya as we uncover the childhood wounds that left her believing she was unlovable, unworthy, invisible, and alone. Raised by an alcoholic mother, Sonya became the parent long before she was ever allowed to be a child. Together, we explore how parentification, childhood trauma, and a dysregulated nervous system can quietly shape our relationships, identity, and sense of self well into adulthood. Through inner child work, nervous system regulation, and compassionate inquiry, Sonya experiences a profound breakthrough when she realizes that the very fact she has continued showing up for herself through every hardship is evidence that she has loved herself all along. This episode is a beautiful reminder that healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about remembering who you've always been beneath the survival strategies. In this episode, we explore: How parentification creates lifelong feelings of unworthiness Why childhood trauma becomes stored in the nervous system Healing the wounded seven-year-old who still feels alone The hidden identity behind "I'm unlovable" Why familiar beliefs feel safe, even when they keep us stuck Moving from survival mode into conscious self-leadership How to begin reparenting yourself with compassion Why self-love is often already present; you simply haven't recognized it yet If you've spent years believing you weren't enough, constantly living in survival mode, or feeling like you're carrying emotional burdens that don't make sense, I hope this conversation reminds you that your childhood may explain your story, but it never has to define your future. Resources Mentioned: • Box Breathing for nervous system regulation • Inner Child Meditation (mentioned during the episode) ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 Meet Sonya & Her Worthiness Wound 2:48 Growing Up as the Parentified Child 8:18 Living with a Dysregulated Nervous System 13:45 Meeting Her Seven-Year-Old Self 22:14 Bringing Safety Back to the Inner Child 31:48 Why Survival Became Her Identity 40:52 Becoming the Creator of Your Life 50:33 The Fear of Letting Go of "I'm Unlovable" 58:24 The Breakthrough That Changed Everything 1:05:02 Reparenting Yourself with Love 1:10:36 Final Reflections & Next Steps Connect with Alicia Be a guest on an Awaken with Alicia episode: https://aliciakay.as.me/awakenwithalicia Sign up for my newsletter for monthly tools and inspiration!

  Episode #46

  Ep. #46 The Parts That You Reject Hold the Keys to Your Freedom

  Jul 16, 202626 min

  What if the parts of yourself you've spent your entire life trying to hide are actually the parts that will set you free? From childhood, many of us learned to reject pieces of ourselves in order to be loved, accepted, and safe. The people-pleaser. The perfectionist. The performer. The protector. While these parts helped us survive, they were never meant to define who we are. In this deeply personal episode of Alive & Awake , I explore why true healing isn't about fixing yourself; it's about accepting every part of yourself with compassion. Through personal stories, Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychology, and spiritual teachings, I share why self-acceptance is the path to inner peace and how embracing your humanity allows you to reconnect with your authentic self. In this episode, we explore: Why we create protector parts like the people-pleaser and perfectionist The surprising reason these parts were never meant to stay forever Carl Rogers' "Curious Paradox" and why acceptance creates lasting change The Gospel of Thomas and the wisdom of bringing your hidden parts into the light My personal story of perfectionism, fitting in, and learning to trust my authentic self The symbolism of the rose and what Mother Mary teaches about embracing both our beauty and our thorns Why self-compassion, not self-improvement, is the path to freedom Journal prompts to help you begin accepting every part of yourself If you've ever felt like you had to earn love by being "good," hide pieces of yourself to be accepted, or constantly feel like you need to fix yourself before you're worthy of peace, this episode is for you. Because the moment you stop fighting yourself… is the moment you begin to find freedom.
