Living Wellness Muse Podcast
What if a few simple shifts could lead to a life you truly love?
Welcome to The Living Wellness Muse podcast with your host, Leanne Elliott—writer, entrepreneur, Reiki Master, intuitive medium, and mom of three.
Twice a month, we explore how to stop spinning, release overwhelm, and rewire self-doubt through soulful conversations with doctors, healers, creatives, and everyday women who’ve navigated life’s big transitions—and emerged stronger, wiser, and more aligned.
Each episode offers inspiration, insight, and practical tools for midlife transformation, wellness, relationships, purpose, and reinvention.
A more joyful, grounded, and meaningful life is possible—let’s go create it, together.

Parenting Our Teens Without Drama or Disconnection
The teen years can be a wild ride! As parents, it’s our job not to make them even harder.
It’s tempting to make it about us and what we want and need - which is usually feeling in control of their lives even when that isn’t the reality anymore. The painful part is accepting that, loosening the grip, learning to trust them, and walking them through the highs and lows as they come with love, love, and more love.
Today I'm joined by Trish Hecker, both a mom of teens and a certified sex ed teacher, as we take a deep dive into how to parent our teens without all of the drama and disconnection our culture has come to expect.
