Friday Jan 20, 2023
Giving context to your life — knowing your “why” — is a huge part of staying your course and creating the life of your dreams.
You can highlight and frame that context with one easy practice: having a “word of the year.”
In today’s episode, I share my word of the year with you and give you a little insight into how this practice has helped me upgrade my life in many ways, year after year.
It’s seriously so simple, and it works!
After you listen and reflect, come share your word of the year with me inside my private Facebook group, Fiercely Awakening.

Episode 63: She’s Awake to Her Power
Saturday Nov 26, 2022
Saturday Nov 26, 2022
In today's episode, I’m sharing with you an interview I did with a woman who’s been part of Fiercely Empowered Mama since the beginning, when I was building it in real time.
She’s no stranger to this podcast. Ever since she first connected to me and this work, she’s taken it and run with it in so many ways.
I love our story of how we came to be.
I had posted about FEM in a local natural mama group, and Laurel reached out to me, asking if we could get on the phone to talk about the offering.
She was a little skeptical. I told her about the course, my vision, the movement and community I wanted to create. I invited her to join, and she said she needed to think about it.
At that time, she had a 6-month-old and some familiarity with natural health, but it was one of those situations where she didn’t know yet what she didn’t know.
A day after our call, she took that leap of faith, trusted her intuition and signed up for FEM.
Then her transformation began.
Since then, this woman’s personal healing has accelerated truly in leaps and bounds. She has grown immense confidence in raising her little ones. She’s now a mom of two boys and uses only natural remedies. She’s committed to nourishment, and she now even muscle tests mini programs for herself and family members to support them through a variety of symptoms and communication.
She went from kinda sorta knowing a few things to becoming a full blown believer embodying this lifestyle.
She now has an unwavering trust in natural healing even for tougher chronic situations.
She now understands the human body and its communications.
She now understands the healing process.
She’s awake to her power as the natural healer of her home.
She is a Fiercely Empowered Mama.
And because of her yes to FEM, she’s changing the way her family and friends heal and nourish their bodies, too.
This is exactly what’s possible for you as well.
I invite you to listen to Laurel’s story. If you want to watch a video of the interview, you can join us right inside my free group that’s available through the second week of December, Mama’s Fast Track to Healing & Raising Kiddos Naturally.
And if you’re feeling the pull to start your own Fiercely Empowered Mama journey, you can check out all of the details and join us right here.
The doors will be closing soon.

If you’re in my world, you know that this is the time of year when the doors are open to Fiercely Empowered Mama, the core offering of my work.
I’ve been doing some incredible interviews with current FEMs. It’s really quite miraculous what we’re able to do inside this container. The transformations of these women and their families are so profound.
So I wanted to share these stories of awakening to our power as the healers of our homes, which is what FEM is all about — having a mama step into her power and activate her say fully.
If you desire to make sense of walking the healing path and using the tools of a naturopath, Fiercely Empowered Mama is the place for you to be.
About Courtney
Courtney is a Colorado wife and mother to two girls, two dogs and lots of backyard chickens. She’s passionate about essential oils, gut health and all things natural wellness. She homeschools her oldest and loves helping others get started with essential oils and clean living.
She started her wellness journey when her oldest was a newborn struggling with colic. She knew there had to be a better way to support her daughter’s body, so she started digging into the world of essential oils. After that, her eyes were opened to a whole new world of natural health.
A few years later, she found me through a Facebook ad for Mama’s Fast Track. She joined the free group and started binge watching all of the classes.
She really resonated with the truth wisdom I was sharing, so she took the leap of faith in joining the yearlong (plus!) membership in Fiercely Empowered Mama. This will be her third year as an active FEM. Courtney is a big believer that there’s always more to learn, and she adores the FEM community.
Mama's Fast Track to Raising & Healing Kiddos Naturally
If you’re interested in the free classes that Courtney mentions, you can find them right now by following this link to my free Mama’s Fast Track Facebook group.
You’ll be getting the best of the best — I upgrade the material every year!
This group will close on December 9.
Even if FEM isn’t for you right now, if you want to soak in some really powerful conversations about raising and healing kiddos naturally, this is such a cool place to be!

Episode 61: Your Autointoxication Wake-Up Call
Monday Oct 24, 2022
Monday Oct 24, 2022
Toxicity is NOT just what we're exposed to. It’s what's stuck and stagnant in our system.
Many of the health problems that we live with are problems we can control by getting rid of what should be moving through our systems — not collecting them. This collection leads to autointoxication.
I guarantee, after listening to this episode, you’ll understand how much our bowel health impacts our full health. You’ll see how quickly missed bowel movements compound toxicity.
Because even if you’re having daily, healthy bowel movements now — has this always been the case?
As you listen, you may even put a missing piece together in your personal health story…
Pain in the back, neck shoulders are linked to bowel toxicity. Fatigue, brain fog, pesky skin issues, hormonal health —even peace of mind — are all linked to bowel health.
Fast Track Your Bowel Health & Your Health Overall
If after listening to this episode you’re ready to take action and radically improve your bowel health, (which improves ALL health), I invite you to grab a pass to Cleansing Circle Fast Track right here using this link.
Limited spots remaining!

Episode 60: Collapsing Timelines
Saturday Oct 01, 2022
Saturday Oct 01, 2022
When you’re told that a project is going to take six months to a year, and it ends up being completed within the same day…
This is an example of what we call Collapsing Timelines.
And no matter how big or small the win, when you collapse a timeline, it feels miraculous… like you’re holding a magic wand.
In this episode, I share with you a simple, yet fun, example of how I unexpectedly collapsed a timeline by simply allowing my soul to lead the way. Radical acceptance, innovation and being in the vibes of full-on trust allowed for an epic shift of circumstances.

Episode 59: When Things Don’t Go Your Way

Friday Sep 23, 2022
What do you do when things just don’t go your way?
When you don’t get the results you wanted?
When you feel like you’re trying and it’s NOT working?
When you feel like you're failing or, even worse, that you failed?
Let’s talk about this.
In today’s episode, I share with you my steps for working through it. No matter how big or small the circumstances — how big or small the perceived loss or failure — this will get you back on the freedom path fast.

Episode 58: My Favorite Piece of Evidence of the Universe Having My Back
Friday Sep 16, 2022
Friday Sep 16, 2022
Here’s what I know to be true...
When you make the decision to be all in with your soul’s purpose, your mission, your big (and scary) dream, the Universe will conspire to support you in making it happen in the most profound and unpredictable ways.
You have to decide first and make that first move.
THEN. Things start to fall into place.
This is exactly what happened when I left my corporate career in 2018, said YES to building Fiercely Empowered Mama and committed to the mission of getting naturopathy in as many homes as possible.
I had no idea how I was going to do it… alone.
But being alone never happened.
On the heels of my very last day, I was unexpectedly gifted the most talented human to run with…Rachel Nephew, my first TeamTonya member.
And man, did we run.
In today’s episode, Rachel and I reflect back to the beginning of our journey together. Not in a million years did we see this relationship happening or evolving to where it has… but here we are, four years later.
It’s been an amazing journey, to say the least.
You’ll get insider details on how it all began and why we never saw it coming.
I hope you find yourself feeling all our good vibes and that this conversation gives you that extra nudge (if you need it) to make that next move toward your dreams.
While Rachel is still on the team (yay for me!), she’s also in the process of starting her own events business, inspired by her thrill at creating settings where people can come together and revel in the goodness life has to offer. She’s passionate about dreaming up and creating all the big and small things that elevate an experience.

Episode 55: You know that’s not how that works, right?
Friday Aug 12, 2022
Friday Aug 12, 2022
In today's episode, I talk about getting a taste of my own medicine.
As you may know, “medicine” doesn’t always taste good. But if we allow it into our lives, there’s always something beneficial in it for us.
In fact, getting a taste of our own medicine can be one of the fastest ways to shift and evolve to even higher standards.
Listen in as I share a real life scenario that opened my eyes to where I was working with some "sneaky" self-righteous energy.
