Show Notes

We all face difficulties and challenges through out our lives regardless of how different our circumstances may seem. On this weeks episode join me with the inspirational Wayne Forrest and be motivated to discover and embody what Wayne calls our “Inner warrior”!

Wayne is an international transformational speaker and life mastery coach as well as a Ted x speaker. He’s has shared the stage with many well known thought leaders such as Matt Boggs and international trainers and speakers such as my personal favorite Lisa Nichols. (Who you might know from the secret book & film!) 

Wayne had a sporting accident in 1995 that left him C5 tetraplegic and he said this was the catalyst for his ongoing personal development journey which has given him the incredible life he loves and is very grateful for. He is a co-creator of an award winning non for profit “CHB swim for lives” which supports local schools in deep water programs and swimming lessons to help save lives and prevent drowning. 

Wayne shares his journey from the heart to enable others to believe that YOU too can build and live your dreams, and live a life you love regardless of the challenges, struggles or perceived disabilities you face.

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.
