In this episode of The Enlightened Life Podcast, Scott Allan sits down with Alicia Farricielli, founder of Frequency of Her, for a conversation that’s as soul-stirring as it is practical. If you’ve ever wondered how spirituality and leadership intersect—or how mindfulness can change the way you lead, love, and live—this one’s for you. Alicia’s story is a testament to personal growth and the power of spiritual awakening. From pre-dawn to-do lists and the invisible labor of single motherhood, to the relentless drive that led to spiritual burnout, Alicia’s journey is both deeply personal and universally relatable. She describes how the constant hustle eventually became a cage, one that stifled her inner peace and left her restless for true transformation. What changed? Alicia chose to step off the hamster wheel and embark on a spiritual journey—one that prioritized consciousness, inner peace, and authentic presence over performance. Through mindfulness practices like breathwork, nervous system regulation, and honest self-inquiry, she found not just stress relief, but a new way of being. Her awakening didn’t happen overnight. It was a gradual return to herself, a process of healing her inner child and balancing the masculine and feminine energies within. Throughout their conversation, Scott and Alicia explore how spirituality and emotional intelligence go hand-in-hand in leadership. They discuss the importance of tuning into your own needs, recognizing when you’re leading from survival mode, and how the path to sustainable success starts with self-worth and inner alignment. Alicia shares practical tools for stress relief and encourages listeners to honor their own spiritual journey—reminding us that transformation is possible when we’re willing to do the inner work. Alicia’s message is clear: The real revolution in women’s leadership isn’t about working harder or carrying more. It’s about awakening to your own consciousness, finding your flow, and leading from a place of embodied mindfulness and spiritual authenticity. Whether you’re navigating spiritual burnout or simply seeking more meaning in your life and work, Alicia’s wisdom will inspire you to follow your soul’s calling and embrace your own transformation.
