    In this solo episode, Brenda shares a powerful metaphor from her years as a music teacher—tuning ukuleles—to explore the deeper meaning of congruence in life, business, and leadership. Through storytelling, vulnerability, and her signature energetic lens, Brenda reveals the subtle ways we get out of alignment with ourselves and how to come back home to our truth.

    She opens up about:

    • The real reason congruence creates ease

    • Why your body gives you clues before your brain catches up

    • How tuning your energy is like tuning an instrument—daily work, not a one-time fix

    • The moment she realized she was out of congruence in her own business (and how she’s fixing it)

    • Her honest reflections on monetizing her gifts while staying committed to accessibility

    ✨ Plus: a big announcement about her brand new spiritual podcast, The Table of Woo, and an invitation to her upcoming chakra workshop!
