Overcoming the Sisterhood Wound to Find Your True Tribe

Welcome back to The Empowered w/ Deanna Merlino Podcast! In this episode, I focus on the often-unspoken “sisterhood wound,” exploring the emotional challenges and personal growth that come from evolving friendships and seeking authentic connection. One concept I discuss is how personal change can shift relationship dynamics, sometimes leading to a necessary shedding of old friendships and the courage it takes to step into new, aligned circles. A key theme that comes through is the importance of healing childhood and adolescent wounds around belonging and acceptance, as well as questioning societal programming that pits women against each other. The discussion explored the power of embracing your true self, finding safety in vulnerability, and the collective potential that arises when women support and empower one another. I invite you to reflect on your own experiences and consider how releasing old patterns can lead to deeper, more fulfilling connections and a brighter, more empowered community - and us doing this TOGETHER. <3

What is EmpowereD with Deanna Merlino?

Welcome to The EmpowereD Podcast.

I’m Deanna Merlino - intuitive mentor, energetics practitioner, retreat host, and multi six-figure entrepreneur. This show is a space where we explore the deeper layers of personal power, energetic leadership, and aligned success.

Here we talk about manifestation, energetics, nervous system regulation, spirituality, universal laws, business, and embodiment - not just from theory, but from lived experience and deep inner work.

After leaving the corporate world, and deciding to make a name for myself in the fitness industry, profound personal loss led me into a deep journey of healing, self-discovery, and spiritual study. I became trained in trauma-informed coaching, somatic healing, many forms of master level energy healing & utilizing tools like Human Design, astrology, NLP and many more, as I searched for deeper truth and alignment in my own life.

Since then, I’ve built multiple six-figure businesses, served thousands of students and clients, and hosted many transformative retreats designed to help people reconnect with their power and create lives that feel deeply aligned.

On this podcast, I share the insights, revelations, and energetic shifts that help you see your life, your power, and your potential more clearly.

If you know you’re here for more - more truth, more freedom, more expansion - you’re in the right place.

And with roughly 150 episodes and counting, get ready to think bigger, see deeper, and embody the next level of exactly who you came here to become.
