194: Finding Alignment Through Detachment Without Judgement with Nanci Reed

Author: Simona Costantini August 22, 2023 Duration: 32:56

If you find yourself wanting to search for your own answers to happiness and healing, but you continue to stop yourself from starting because you haven’t found the “right way” to do the inner work - this episode is for you.

Nanci Reed is an author, pilates intuitive healer, spiritual life coach, and a student/teacher/facilitator of “A Course In Miracles”. 

A life-altering car accident became the catalyst for her own self-healing journey which led to her to eventually teaching pilates and practical spirituality. Fused with her academic background and graduate work in psychology this work propelled her to her purpose of helping others heal their mind, body, or spirit.

Nanci works with clients facing all degrees of physical pain, misalignments, and those seeking to heal emotional and spiritual imbalances, as they navigate their own self-healing journey’s successes and seeming detours with a lens led by Kindness and Curiosity rather than preconceived judgments or comparisons. 'Happily Ever Living’ is Nanci’s unique, signature process to empower Self-Healing within her clients via pilates + practical spirituality.

We talk today about detaching judgement from ourselves so that we may live in the present and find alignment and happiness in our life.You’ll find that other people are drawn to this, and  they want to be around it because you demonstrate for others what is possible for others by showing what is possible for yourself.

 

We dive into:

  • [3:50] What does happiness mean to Nanci?

  • [9:34] Making the shift into your most aligned self to find happiness.

  • [14:16] How do you stay true to yourself and what you want while honoring other people’s opinions?

  • [23:38] When we grant others our decision making power.

  • [31:45] How can someone create a little more happiness each day starting today?

We all ask those big questions about contentment and purpose at some point. Happiness Happens doesn’t treat those queries as abstract philosophy, but as a practical, weekly conversation hosted by Simona Costantini. Rather than offering a rigid formula, this podcast explores the many facets of a meaningful life through dialogues with thoughtful guests from various fields. You’ll hear from psychologists, artists, thinkers, and everyday people who have found unique pathways to fulfillment. The discussions are grounded in real experience, focusing on actionable insights that go beyond simple positive thinking. Each episode feels like a deep dive into a different corner of the human experience, whether it’s examining the role of community, the pursuit of creative passion, or the quiet practice of self-acceptance. Simona guides these conversations with a genuine curiosity, making complex ideas about well-being feel accessible and personal. The result is a resource that feels both expansive and intimately useful. Tuning into this podcast is less about searching for a single secret and more about gathering a toolkit-a collection of perspectives and practices that help you define what happiness actually means in your own life. It’s for anyone who believes that a more contented life is built from a series of conscious choices and deeper understandings, one honest conversation at a time.
