New Year, Clear You: Detoxing Mind, Body, and Soul
Feeling a little out of sync with yourself? After the holiday chaos, it might be time for a detox—mind, body, and soul. Kick off the new year with a (slightly hungover) deep dive into how to reset for a fresh start. The Beans are here to serve up practical tips for navigating new chapters in life. But here's the twist: It’s not just about getting rid of the old—it’s about embracing what’s next. Time to stop focusing solely on what you need to cut out and start thinking about what you can bring in to truly move forward. Let’s empty out the clutter and make room for renewal and growth.For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissa https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanez https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target:https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search

Intentions: How You can Reframe New Year's Resolutions
Happy New Year! Resolutions are in the air, but let’s be honest: most of us struggle to stick with them. That’s because we tend to frame resolutions as a way to ‘fix’ ourselves, as if something is wrong. In the first episode of 2024, Mory & Melissa flip the script. Instead of focusing on who we should be, they suggest taking a good look at the life we already have. What’s working? What’s holding us back? This fresh perspective might just be the key to lasting growth. Tune in for their personal intentions, their goals for Signal, and—finally—proof that Mory didn’t invent the word “goosecam.”For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissa https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanez https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target: https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search

Pressing Pause: Why It's so Hard to Take a Break and What You Can Do About It
With winter in full swing and life hitting snooze, it’s the perfect time to embrace the art of doing… absolutely nothing (and loving it). In this episode, Mory and Melissa revisit a past conversation about how this season of pause is basically Mother Nature handing you a permission slip to slow down, look inward, and ditch the endless productivity hamster wheel. Tune in to hear how taking a guilt-free pause can help you reflect, realign, and set yourself up for a new year that’s bursting with good vibes—no hustle required!For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissa https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanez https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target: https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search

Reclaiming the Holiday Spirit: Finding Joy Beyond the Stress
The holidays are here! We have all the decorations up, Mariah Carey is playing on every speaker, and… oh my god did I get the right gifts?! Have I planned the perfect meal??

This week the beans invite you to join them as they redefine the holidays, reclaim the joy and ground themselves in what the holiday spirit really means.

Signal Show and Tell: Spiritual Readings from Ainslie
The results are in, and the beans are here to tell us all about their very own soul readings from renowned spiritual advisor and previous Signal guest, Ainslie MacLeod. While you may have already known that the two are both level 10 souls and that Melissa’s Scottish accent is not quite up to par (sorry Melissa), we also get to learn about their past lives and how they manifest today. It turns out that discovering where our fears and limiting belief systems come from helps jump starts our soul’s healing.

People Pleasing- Why we put the happiness of others before our own
With the holiday season in full swing, we all know that the celebratory joy can also come with the celebratory stress of accommodating so many people. While pleasing others can be a normal part of life, it can quickly turn into appeasing others at your own expense. That's why Mory and Melissa are revisiting an old episode that takes a long, hard look at people pleasing. We celebrate compassion as a culture, we speak highly of empathy, and we adore sacrifice - but we usually don’t talk about the times we care for others out of a need to feel safe or valuable. Fawning is just as much a trauma response as ‘fight or flight,’ and like all trauma responses, fawning should be honored and understood for what it is: our imperfect and natural capacity to process difficulty. Tune in for some serious (and not so serious) stories from the front lines of people pleasing, clarity on reconnecting to your own desire, and a convincing argument for why you should get a bean of your own.For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes:https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissahttps://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanezhttps://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target:https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search

What are You Thankful For: The Power of Gratitude
From a young age we’re told to be thankful, but why is gratitude so important? Being thankful is a lot more complicated than forcing yourself to be happy. As the Beans discuss in this episode, thankfulness can (and probably should) coexist with the anger and grief you feel in tough situations. It doesn’t make life perfect, but it does allow us to get through our roughest patches and darkest hours. Bring goggles and a box of tissues for this emotionally intense journey through depression, joy, and friendship. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for listening to Signal!For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes:https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissahttps://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanezhttps://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target:https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search
