The Higher Self Hotline

(Episode #13) Ever felt like you had to shrink yourself down to be understood by the people who love you? In this week's Bitching Hour, we're talking about the tender, confusing work of staying open-hearted while living a life your loved ones can't quite compute — and why detaching from being understood might be the most freeing thing you ever do.
This week's call opens in death-and-rebirth territory and becomes a launchpad for a bigger conversation about cyclical endings and why "the program will run until it's complete." Zoey and Brittany read the collective energy of what's actually going on energetically right now, and a longtime community member opens up about the exhausting tightrope of living authentically around people who will never fully get it — and what to do when your boundaries start calcifying into walls.
In this episode:
(00:00) Brittany's identity death, the THC-festival flashback, and why dying is a constant, not a crisis
(07:43) Why "the program will run until it's complete"
(15:24) A caller asks what's energetically happening in the world right now — eclipse season, the 1-1 portal, and the difference between urgency and readiness
(20:51) Holding intensity and hope at once, the collapse of old systems, and an invitation into a new-earth channeling circle
(27:04) A caller opens up about the exhaustion of living authentically around loved ones who don't get it — and where her boundaries have hardened into walls
(32:54) Neutrality and planting seeds instead of over-explaining, and detaching from the need to be understood
(41:49) Closing remarks, community housekeeping, and where to find Brittany and Zoey

What if the closure you’ve been waiting for was never theirs to give you?
This week Zoey sits down with author, activist and educator Najwa Zebian for a conversation about what happens when we stop handing our healing back to the people who hurt us. Najwa talks about the stories we tell ourselves about why someone hurt us – and why that's what tends to consume us.
Together they explore a vital truth: needing people doesn’t make you needy. Period, end of sentence. Upholding standards for how people can treat you in relationships will allow you to stop carrying old wounds into new connections.
In this episode we’re talking about:
00:00 Welcome Back and Introducing Dr. Najwa Zebian
04:23 Healing Without an Apology
10:02 When Nothing They Can Give You Will Be Enough
16:49 Why Closure Is a Myth
25:19 Taking the Pen Back After Someone Hurts You
33:56 Needing People Doesn’t Make You Needy
38:22 Why People Do Owe You Something
43:29 Why We Stay in Relationships That Hurt Us

(Episode #11) What if the only thing standing between you and receiving is your own permission? This week's live coaching covers a lot of ground: a freelancer weighing a stable corporate job against the terrifying, exciting possibility that her dreams are actually coming true; a business owner who's been hemorrhaging energy and money while convinced the answer is always to give more; a handywoman stuck in an invoicing spiral that's really about permission, not productivity; and a listener untangling anxious-avoidant patterns in a new dating connection. Threaded through all of it is the same question Brittany and Zoey keep circling back to — not "what more can you give," but "what are you willing to receive?"
In this episode:
(00:00) Introducing The Bitching Hour, plus glimmers and stickies
(00:10) A client's question: choosing between a stable dream job and the fear of jumping into someone else's timeline
(00:35) Rewriting the nervous system's relationship to hope — why "worst-case scenario" is a defense, not a fact
(00:38) A client's question: healing a lifelong receiving wound after years of hemorrhaging energy and money
(01:14) A client's question: the invoicing block that's really about giving your "baby business" permission to be enough
(01:39) A listener's reflections on disorganized attachment, the hiding wound, and choosing to slow down instead of self-sabotage
(01:53) Closing remarks and a first look at Brittany and Zoey's new 21-day joint offer, "That Bitch"

September is here and the energy is loud. We’ve officially reached the peak of the year, which means everything you’ve been moving through since January is getting turned all the way up.
This week Zoey sits down with Amelia for the September numerology forecast and gets into why this month is such a powerful turning point in both your personal year and our collective Year 1. They talk about the difference between urgency and knowing when it’s actually time to move, what your shadows might be trying to show you and why the seeds you plant now could shape the next nine years of your life.
They also get real about imposter syndrome, trusting your intuition when you can only see one step ahead and letting yourself grow into the version of you that’s been trying to emerge.

In this episode we’re talking about:
00:00 Welcome to The Higher Self Hotline
14:17 Personal Year Numerology and the Energy of September
28:05 Why September Is the Peak of Your Personal Year
34:05 Shadow Work and Healing Your Wounded Self
39:12 Imposter Syndrome, Creativity and Identity
51:15 September Collective Numerology Forecast
54:31 The Numerology Portal Shaping Your Next 9 Years

What happens to our intuition when the world never gives us a moment to be still?
This week, Zoey is joined by author and spiritual teacher Tracee Stanley for a conversation about ritual, self-remembrance, and the power of reclaiming our attention. Tracee shares how ritual became part of her everyday life, why she believes “truth does not thrive in distraction,” and how technology and optimization culture can slowly pull us away from our own inner knowing. And yes, Zoey gets personally read by Tracee over her Oura Ring.
Tracee also shares the heart behind her newest book, Living Ritual, and how we can create sacred moments within the lives we’re already living. They talk about pattern interruption, our connection to the Earth, the wisdom of aging and menopause, and learning to honor the transitions that change us.

In this episode:
0:00 Welcome back and introducing Tracee Stanley
3:01 Finding ritual in the everyday
11:31 Creating change through pattern interruption
19:27 Reclaiming our presence in a world of constant distraction
27:05 Wellness, optimization culture, and trusting your own inner knowing
34:06 Ritual as a practice of remembering who we are
43:57 Aging, menopause, and reclaiming rites of passage
