In this episode, Carrie and I are breaking down the loop—the mental replay, the Groundhog Day energy, the autopilot patterns that keep us stuck—and how something as simple as ChatGPT (or whatever name you’ve given your AI… go ask it!) can actually help you get out of your own head and into a new rhythm. We talk about how to “glitch the loop” on purpose:
Taking a different route to work
Going to a new coffee shop
Intentionally interrupting your routine to come back to your body
Because survival mode makes us seek comfort, predictability, and practicality—but growth? Alignment? That sh*t requires disruption. We also get into:
The difference between the Matrix and the Universe (yes, it matters!)
Why not every “bad” thing is actually bad—it might just be inconvenient
What alignment actually feels like (hint: it’s not all bliss and butterflies)
How your algorithm reflects your reality and what to do if it’s full of doom and gloom
Plus: a powerful moment from our Sacred Circle community as Carrie shares how one random TikTok led her to our group… and changed her life. Her story is a living reminder that we don’t heal in isolation—we heal in sisterhood. Our Sacred Circle community is over four years strong and built on women showing up for each other through it all.
The butterfly effect is real, y’all.
This one’s spicy, funny, and full of hot takes on energy, intention, and choosing a new path—even when it’s messy.

(This is a series I created within Hot Takes on Healing: "Fly On a Wall", where you get an all-access pass to the deep, inspiring, & unfiltered conversations I’ve had with some of my closest friends. These are the moments we’ve always wished other people could hear—the real, *no edits*, NO-BS chats where nothing is off-limits. We’re talking about the stuff that hits you right in the gut, the kind of truths that stick with you, and the kind of honesty that’ll make you feel like you’re sitting right there with us.)
Let’s continue talking about the things that matter TOGETHER. And who knows? You might just feel like a fly on the wall in the best way possible.
