In episode 153 of The Empowered and Embodied Show, Kim Romain and Louise Neil are diving deep into a conversation with the incredible Adhya Rose—an efficiency and energetics coach who helps purpose-driven entrepreneurs create time freedom and streamline their businesses with ease.

But this episode isn’t just about systems and structures (though we touch on those, too!). We explore authenticity, embodiment, alignment, and the power of allowing—because let’s be real, the journey to an empowered and embodied life is anything but linear.

From unpacking societal expectations to embracing our unique evolutionary paths, this conversation will inspire you to let go, surrender, and trust in the unfolding of your own journey. Because, spoiler alert: you don’t have to control everything to feel at peace. 

"The most amazing thing you can do for yourself and the world is to come forward with all of who you are." - Adhya Rose

Key Takeaways:

  • What authenticity really means—and why it’s more than just a buzzword.
  • How alignment and embodiment help us move through the world with ease.
  • The role of systems in supporting personal and professional growth.
  • Why control isn’t the goal—and how allowing can bring true freedom.
  • The connection between inner peace, surrender, and the messy human experience.
  • How our personal evolution impacts the collective (whether we’re aware of it or not!).

Kim Romain (00:03):
Hello, hello, hello, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of The Empowered and Embodied Show. I am one of your co-hosts, Kim Romain, joined as always by my other co-host...

Louise Neil (00:14):
That's me, I'm Louise, and we have our very special guest today. I'm so excited.

Adhya Rose (00:20):
Adhya Rose.

Kim Romain (00:21):
Adhya, we're so glad that you are here with us today. Let us let the world know just a little bit about you.

Adhya is an efficiency and energetics coach who empowers purpose-driven and heart-centered entrepreneurs to streamline their businesses and create time freedom. Ooh, that sounds juicy.

Through her systems-based approach, Adhya helps changemakers and healers harness the power of systems, energetic efficiency, and mindset shifts to transform their business operations—with my two favorite words: with ease.

Passionate about fostering community and aligning to holistic living, her work aims to support individuals and organizations in living authentically while impacting positive change. She offers services that help businesses thrive sustainably and efficiently. When she's not coaching, she loves exploring nature, traveling, and connecting with fellow entrepreneurs to spark new possibilities for growth.

I feel like you're speaking my love language.

Adhya Rose (01:27):
Right? Thanks for having me. I'm so happy to be here. These conversations are... excited to talk to the two of you. These conversations are magical.

Kim Romain (01:31):
We are so glad you're here!

Kim Romain (01:43):
Absolutely.

Louise Neil (01:44):
There is so much magic in that bio that Kim read. I could see her getting all tingly as she's talking about energy and time freedom and all of those things. I got real curious around this idea of helping people be authentic and stepping into that. I want to know what that means to you.

Adhya Rose (02:18):
Yeah, so interestingly enough, this question actually lends itself to embodiment and alignment.

So I guess what I would say is authenticity to me is a number of different factors. It brings in recognizing a person's needs, recognizing a person's desires, recognizing a person's values, and then living in alignment with those areas of your life.

I think a lot of times, especially as entrepreneurs, especially as women, especially as mothers, we have a very, very hard time living within our realm of what we actually need—even asking for what we need in the first place—recognizing what we need, let alone asking for it, let alone actually living within the realm of what we need.

There's so much going on in the world. We were just talking about this. There's so much going on in the world right now. It's a whole different ball game than it ever has been. Energies are high. Our economy is really incredible, trying to function within the world that we've created for ourselves now as human beings in general—but then you have the layers of being a woman and being a mother, and then being an entrepreneur.

So I guess what I believe is that doing what you—what was the question exactly?

Kim Romain (04:02):
What does authentic mean to you?

Adhya Rose (04:08):
Authentic to me means figuring out what matters to you as a person. This is what I like to support my clients in doing. I support entrepreneurs who are purpose-driven. So in what way do you want to show up in the world and make a difference and be of service?

That might mean creating art. It could mean all sorts of things. But as long as a person is coming from a place of values and integrity—what way do you want to show up in the world? And how do you want to be in service? And then functioning within what you need and what's most in alignment for you in terms of values. Those pieces come into play a lot in the work that I do, because like I said, we're pulled in so many different directions.

Kim Romain (04:59):
You use some words in there that—right, absolutely, like I said, you're speaking my love language—and I think can be really confusing to people, right? Because—and I did, like, I feel this when I use my own words, and people are like, “I really want to be there with you,” and yet have no idea really what you mean.

So words like we talk about here—embodied. What does embodiment mean? What does alignment mean? So how do we even know that we're doing these things? What have some of your experiences been with yourself and your clients?

Adhya Rose (05:35):
Yeah. So alignment—I would say alignment is knowing who you are and what you want. And that can be a challenge in the first place.

Alignment is living from a place of who you are and what you want for your life and what's meaningful to you, which comes down to values. And I think values can even be confusing for people sometimes. But it's like: what really lights your heart on fire? What matters to you in life? Is it family? Is it freedom? Is it service? Is it art?

What are the things that really light you on fire, and then living from that place and allowing yourself to follow that thread?

In my experience—working with lots of clients over the years, but also working with mentors and big thought leaders—following what lights you on fire is the best way to be of service to yourself and to the world.

So I would say alignment is living within what matters to you and moving from that place.

I have a client who is a body talk practitioner. She's phenomenal. She's a phenomenal healer. She has had a young child client who has overcome epilepsy—very serious, very advanced epilepsy. She's an incredible healer doing all of this incredible work in the world—and then really struggling to receive support. So her needs are not being met.

She's going to work and creating miracles. She's worked with me and created phenomenal change in my life. She's creating miracles and then going home and does not have the support of her family. She's also struggling to ask for it. There's responsibility on both sides—there always is—but she doesn’t have the support. She's bent over backwards doing all of the home stuff, everything with the children, helping out family members, and struggling to ask for help.

So alignment, partly for her, is figuring out what her needs are and how she can ask for help—and then working to overcome the blocks that she has to asking for help.

Because a lot of us do. A lot of women beyond a certain age were taught to be seen and not heard. And we were taught not to have needs. It was a lot more appealing for a little girl to be seen and not heard and not have needs. So we're retraining—feeling safe to ask for what we need.

Louise Neil (08:57):
Yeah, it's really—it's this really multifaceted... I was gonna say it's a two-sided coin, but it's really like multifaceted in the sense of understanding, first of all, that we have needs. Because that’s true, and we can walk around thinking that we don’t—especially when we’re in service. Like, when we’re in that space of servicing as a profession.

And then finding language to ask. Or finding the ability to ask for that support, for that help. I think there's even a mindset around deserving. Do I deserve to have that support? Do I deserve to have that need being met?

There's this needy... versus needs—I think—that we can fall into as well. We say, “I don't want to be needy. So I'll just... I'll just play the game. I'll just do this thing over here because I don't want to be seen as needy.” Or... overly.

Kim Romain (10:15):
Overly over...

Louise Neil (10:16):
Right? And we do fall into this trap as women because we're playing so many parts. And it's these parts that we play—that’s how we can find our authenticity and who we are authentically. But we fall into these systems and structures of, like: “This is what it means to be a mom. This is what it means to be a spouse or a partner. This is what it means to be a woman entrepreneur. This is what it means to be a female professional.”

And we fall into those so easily. And when they’re not aligned with who we are, it starts to pull us apart.

Adhya Rose (10:58):
Absolutely. Yeah. And I think it can be quite easy for us to say, “Well, I can carry it all,” for a period of time. And then life happens.

It's one thing—when things are fairly level—to be able to carry it all. Because we're pretty magical creatures. It's pretty incredible how well we can multitask if we really want to.

But then our health gives out after a while, or there's a major family something, or something that happens in life, and you realize: I can't carry it all. I need support.

And you haven't necessarily put the structures in place to be able to receive that support. Or there's still a lot of fear, or doubt, or whatever about asking for support. Like you said, a lot of people just don't necessarily feel comfortable asking for help.

You see this all the time. A group of friends and I—we're all entrepreneurs—we cowork at my place on Wednesdays. They're amazing, magical women. There's eight of us.

And just a couple days ago, we were coworking, and three of us were in tears because of events of the last week and a half. It’s been super intense. And what we came up with was—I don't know if either of you have heard of this—but Simon Sinek came up with this idea from an interaction he had with a friend: all a person ever needs is eight minutes when they're in a crisis.

So if you're in a crisis, you reach out to someone and just say “eight minutes.” So they know.

All a person ever needs is eight minutes to be held—to feel safe again when you're in a crisis. So just even having tools like that in place to be able to start calling in support...

We all decided, with each other, that anytime someone puts “eight minutes,” somebody will reach out. Somebody will help and be available.

Kim Romain (13:30):
That's the power of community. And of systems—right? One of your wheelhouses is that place of: how do we create the systems?

Because listening to both of you, I'm thinking—this is not new. What we're dealing with, particularly as people who identify as women, is not new.

I’ve been on this earth for 55 years. And no, we've made strides forward—and we're making massive strides backward. And this has happened multiple times in my lifetime.

I know we'll move forward again—I'm not totally worried that we won't—but what is it that keeps us in this shifting back and forth? To me, it’s systems. It's the systems that have been built, that we as humans have created, that keep us constantly in this battle.

And yet, there's magic in systems like “eight minutes,” and other things we can create that allow us to begin to shift out of the narratives that have already come through to us—to say, “No, this is how you have to show up.”

Adhya Rose (14:49):
Yeah, exactly. I would agree entirely.

The reason I do what I do is because I want to support people who are purpose-driven and change-makers—people who want to make a difference, live in a better world, and impact change in systems. That comes in all forms.

Sometimes it’s an artist who's impacting positive change in the world. But on a larger scale, what I’m super passionate about is those systems changing—to be more supportive to human life. Because yeah… things have not been overly sustainable the last little while.

So the efficiency and systems stuff, for me—that’s the place it comes from.

Kim Romain (15:35):
Yeah, yeah. I mean, I can't agree more. It's that—we have... I don't know how sustainable it's been for a long time, but we've been building toward something that I think we, as humans, screwed up. Right?

Like, we moved out of this tribal mindset into this “let's have these institutions that are there to care for the community.” Then—shit. Now all we're doing is caring for the institutions that are screwing humanity.

And now we're seeing that start to erode. And the institutions themselves are having their own death knell, which is creating a lot of the strife that we're feeling.

And I know we were talking before we hit “go” about cosmically what is showing up. And none of us are astrologers—it's not our profession, it's not what we do. And yet all of us are keenly aware of what's happening.

Adhya Rose (16:38):
Yes, exactly. I know—you really feel it now. Like you said, I think there's a higher sensitivity to it in general, but especially with people who are a little more conscious or a little more awake, aware of what's going on in the world, or you've been opening yourself up and becoming more embodied.

When you start living in your body more—embodiment—and you start actually being aware of what's going on around you, you feel all of these things. And I think people are being forced to live in that way now—even those who aren't super awake.

And that's scary for people—because they feel these things but they don't know what it is. But even for conscious people, you can feel it all coming up.

Louise Neil (17:31):
Yeah. And it’s in those times, right, when things are changing and we’re feeling something maybe we haven’t felt before—or haven’t felt in a really long time—that really starts to feel wobbly for a lot of people. Because we don’t understand that it’s maybe an awakening or a birthing into something new and wonderful.

It’s like—we’re just worried about shedding the old stuff. And we try really hard to hang on to it when what we need is to shed it.

I find this a lot when I work with clients around values and beliefs—because we all talk about that as a fundamental core of self-awareness: understanding our values and beliefs. And whether our beliefs are ours or not. Are we hanging on to something that’s a limiting belief or belongs to someone else?

As we go through this transformation of what’s happening in the world, if we don’t have those foundational pieces—if we don’t know what our values are—it feels like we’re being pulled apart.

So instead of a shedding of something old and stepping into something new and exciting and brilliant, we’re like, “I’m being pulled apart.” And we struggle to put back on these old clothes and these old things. And we don’t get a chance to shine. We don’t actually get a chance to be authentically us because we’re too worried about what feels like it’s falling apart.

Kim Romain (19:28):
There’s that word again—authentic.

Adhya Rose (19:31):
Yeah. I don’t know about the two of you, but for me, a lot of things come down to authentic, embodiment, and alignment. It all comes back to that.

I personally, for myself, am returning to it all the time. Like, I literally was just writing in my journal this morning: I’ve been off balance. I’ve gone too hard, I’ve pushed myself too hard.

So coming back into balance is like—okay, what do I need? What do I want? What does this next 90 days look like for me—my second quarter of the year? What does that look like for me to be more taken care of, and to be able to show up?

I guess that’s the core of what I do—help people show up in their businesses and create impact in the world while being taken care of themselves.

And I’m a work in progress. It’s a work in progress for me every day. This alignment and embodiment and authenticity are a journey. You don’t just all of a sudden—boom—I’m in alignment with all of my values and all of my needs and I’m embodying everything I’ve ever wanted to be.

It’s a journey. It’s returning to it all the time.

Kim Romain (20:57):
Not one I’ve met.

Louise Neil (20:58):
Yeah, I agree. [laughs]

Kim Romain (21:17):
We talk about that all the time. It’s not that magically you’re going to be empowered and embodied and aligned and all of these things. It’s the messiness of understanding this is what we’re unfolding into—not that it is the end goal.

The end goal isn’t to live an embodied life. The end goal is not to live an empowered life. The end goal is to experience what those things are and to continue to unveil them as they reveal themselves in our lives as we go through the human experience.

That’s what I think anyway.

Adhya Rose (21:52):
Yeah. I think part of the end goal for me is experiencing inner peace despite whatever is happening around me—and supporting other people to do the same.

Life is never going to be—we don’t live in a vacuum. Things happen. It’s a human experience. But I think if we can cultivate as much inner peace as possible…

My partner and I were just talking about this last night—he’s reading The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. I haven’t read it yet, but he says it’s really good. And it talks quite a bit about equanimity.

I did a Vipassana retreat a few years ago—11 days of meditation—and they talk a lot about equanimity. Which is finding peace in your circumstances. That inner peace that carries you through no matter what’s happening.

It doesn’t mean you always feel like everything’s perfect, but you feel more resourced. More capable. More centered. More grounded.

Kim Romain (23:15):
That’s what I call ease, right? Ease to me is not that place of “everything is perfect” or “everything is easy.” No. It’s that place of equanimity.

Shit’s falling apart and I can still tap into inner peace.

Adhya Rose (23:28):
Yes.

Louise Neil (23:48):
So I wanted to know—because as we’re talking about, you know, it’s messy, and we’re a work in progress and all of these things—I want to know: I have a theory or belief, so I’m just going to put it out there.

Do we need to have the shitstorm that happens in order for us to practice inner peace? Do we need to have chaos? Do we need to have things go off the rails so that we can practice this inner peace thing?

Do we need both?

Adhya Rose (24:26):
Can I speak to that?

So, my belief is—I believe in reincarnation, and I believe we choose what our lifetimes are going to be ahead of time. I believe in karma.

And I think part of what karma means is that we are sitting there in between our lifetimes, and we look at what kinds of lessons we’re ready to learn this time around. And we choose a journey we’re going to go on.

And as cosmic beings—in between lifetimes—we’re not concerned with emotional or physical pain. It’s a non-issue when you’re just consciousness. So we go, “Yeah, this is what I’m going to do. This is what I’m going to experience.”

Then we come here—and I think the chaos and the things that happen around us are partly aligned with what we’ve chosen for our journey.

And I can say that as someone coming from a really rough background. A lot of stuff has happened in my life. And at this point, that’s my view. Maybe as a collective, we’ve chosen into this journey—to learn.

It doesn’t mean it’s not awful at times. But we’re growing from it. We’re becoming more. We’re evolving. And we’re meeting our karma in some way.

And I don’t mean karma like “you did something wrong, now you’re paying for it.” I see karma as energy balancing. You’ve had these experiences in past lifetimes, and now you’re balancing that out.

These hard things—they’ve resourced me. They’ve made me stronger, more humble, more patient. And honestly, I don’t think I’d be who I am without them.

I don’t think you have to have hard experiences, but… that’s my view on it.

Kim Romain (27:47):
That resonates a lot with me. I think I would build on it just a little bit, right? With this idea of—we are here collectively to evolve humanity. And so in order to evolve the collective, we all have this different imprint, right?

I talk about it in terms of our core wound—what we are brought here in this lifetime to experience. And there's multiple levels of that. But when we come into this lifetime, this is our unique experience as part of the collective. And as the collective is in this moment… feels like struggling to evolve—fighting that evolution.

Louise Neil (28:39):
Sorry, that’s a good word.

Kim Romain (28:46):
As individuals, we also have our own unique evolutionary path. And so those two things—tying together—bump up against each other. Right?

Louise, you and I have talked a lot about this place of where our energy bumps into other people’s energy, right? It’s like—I can do my work, but if I bump up against somebody who is, I’m going to use the word loosely, an aspect of me that hasn’t been healed yet, then I have another opportunity to learn something about myself. It’s not about them—it’s about me.

Adhya Rose (29:23):
Yeah, exactly. I like that you said opportunity. That’s what karma is. Karma is opportunities.

They can be really hard. But they’re still opportunities that present themselves. And I think the further along your path you get, the more you realize these moments of bumping into people—those are mirrors. Every time you bump into somebody, it’s an opportunity to see yourself.

How is this triggering me? What is it doing in my system? What can I let go of? What can I grow into?

Kim Romain (30:26):
To answer your question, though, Louise—it doesn’t have to be chaotic or destructive. Right? It doesn’t have to be this all-encompassing thing. But I do think that those opportunities—even micro-conflicts that occur—create space for growth, expansion, and evolution.

Louise Neil (30:58):
Yeah. And only when we see it that way. Right? Is it not?

Kim Romain (31:02):
Well... is that true though? I’m curious. Do you have to be quote-unquote “awakened” to be evolving? Or can you be unaware—and still evolving?

Adhya Rose (31:25):
I think we’re evolving kicking and screaming.

Kim Romain (31:28):
I think so too. I look at some of the people in the world who are kicking and screaming, who definitely don’t want to be in this space—don’t even believe in this space, think this space is ridiculous—and they’re still evolving.

Just because they’re not evolving in the direction we want them to doesn’t mean they’re not evolving.

Adhya Rose (31:49):
Or as quickly as we want them to. Yeah.

Like, I think of—this is deeply personal—but I think of my sister. My sister was an addict. She passed away a few years ago. A lot of people would’ve looked at her and gone, “She’s not evolving. She’s crazy.”

She had all this chaos in her life. All sorts of drama. And she wasn’t very nice sometimes—she was an addict.

But I would speak with her, here and there. And it was really interesting to me to see her evolving, even during the last 10 years of her life. She spent a lot of that time in psychosis—so she didn’t always make sense—but I could see her evolving within that chaos.

I think we can’t always know how people are evolving. Each person has a very personal path.

Kim Romain (33:13):
Which feels back to that—we’re still talking underneath this about authenticity. Because it’s our authentic experience of whatever evolutionary process we’re on.

Louise Neil (33:32):
And owning that. Because that’s where we kind of started this conversation—sometimes it gets hard to own that our experience, our authentic experience, is ours.

And we get to wear it however we want. And I think the more we can step into that—and the more we can wear it and share it—it creates these ripple effects for other folks to tap into their own authentic journey.

We make these little micro-choices all the time. And when we can start to see that that weaves our authentic being—I think that’s cool to be a part of. We get to see the creation, the work in progress. The mess. But also what comes out the other side.

I keep thinking of this—did you ever have a knitting Nancy?

Kim Romain (35:20):
No?

Louise Neil (35:33):
It’s this little spool with nails on top, and you can crochet or weave this little rope that comes out the back. Mine was shaped like a little woman. You twist it with the threads.

But it’s these threads we get to pull together to create something totally unique to us.

Adhya Rose (35:53):
Yeah. And we can only really do that powerfully if we’re conscious of ourselves, right? And our authenticity.

Like, I think you’re saying—we can evolve unconsciously. But if we want to really create something in the world, we have to be conscious of what we’re weaving.

Kim Romain (36:22):
Yeah. There’s a level of awareness that’s key to—I’m going to use a word I don’t normally use—it’s key to having a semblance of control over it.

Intentionality is probably the better word, but “control” came through, so I’m going to stick with it. That’s my naughty C-word.

Louise Neil (36:45):
Kim said the C-word. [laughing]

Kim Romain (36:52):
But yeah—if we’re thinking about pulling the threads together intentionally, does that give us a semblance of control in our lives?

Adhya Rose (37:22):
It does. A lot of things give us a sense of control. But I think there’s a balance. Like… do you need control in order to feel peace? Or do you surrender as much as possible, but control the pieces that bring you peace?

There’s something there.

Kim Romain (37:50):
Yeah. I would lean toward this idea that it’s not actually control—and that surrendering is the word.

Through human design, surrender is actually the theme right now. So this idea of: “I have these threads. I’m intentionally seeing how they pull together. I’m working with them.”

It feels like control, but I’m surrendering control to have the feeling that gives me peace and grounding.

Adhya Rose (38:32):
Yeah. Yeah, I hear that. That felt really right.

There’s a nourishing truth to that—it’s a holding, but not a gripping. Like you're weaving something with intention and grace. So technically, maybe you’re “controlling” something, but at the same time, you’re letting go. You’re allowing what comes.

Louise Neil (39:35):
Yeah. It’s this cool rebranding of the word control. How can we hold something and let it go at the same time? That’s powerful.

Adhya Rose (39:51):
To me, that’s freedom. Being able to choose and direct your life, but also be accepting of what may come. Allowing.

Kim Romain (40:20):
That word—allowing—I think you nailed it. We’re not gripping, we’re not forcing. We’re allowing from a space of co-creation and integration.

We’re taking part in it. We’re being active, not passive.

Adhya Rose (41:13):
Yeah. It’s like a collaboration—we’re asking for what we want, then letting it come. Letting go of what doesn’t.

Kim Romain (41:25):
It’s the true essence of manifestation—non-specific manifestation. I have to do that—where I say, “This is what I want,” and then I let go of how it comes to me.

Adhya Rose (41:44):
Yes. Exactly. And that’s what opens you up to receiving—that surrender.

Kim Romain (41:59):
Just in case you weren’t sure—we go deep, by the way. [laughs]

Adhya Rose (42:00):
This is me. It’s beautiful.

Louise Neil (42:09):
There’s very little chit-chat that happens on the surface here. We want to go deep because that’s part of what we’re bringing into the world. Our whole selves. The deepest parts of ourselves.

And that’s the core of authenticity, right? That’s what we’re talking about here today. But also what we’re doing here with each guest—how do we bring more of that forward?

Because that’s what we really need. All the time—but especially these times.

Kim Romain (43:29):
Because that shifts the collective energy. When we do our deep work—it ripples. All of us on this screen are doing that, and we’re inviting others into it.

Adhya Rose (44:07):
Yes. And when we tap into our inner world, we tap into that collective consciousness pulling us forward. I believe it’s inherently good—at least 51% good.

That’s what I try to trust and return to.

Kim Romain (44:48):
Yes. And also—what if? What if there’s no blueprint, and we’re just here, figuring it out?

Adhya Rose (45:20):
Yeah. That’s also a possibility.

Kim Romain (45:25):
Free will and all that. We’re experimenting. And sometimes it gets messy.

Adhya Rose (45:55):
Exactly. And that’s the beauty—and pain—of being human.

Kim Romain (48:43):
We could continue this conversation for another week and a half. But for our listeners—let’s close with what we’re taking away.

Louise Neil (49:01):
We started with authenticity and somehow landed on allowing—which feels exactly right. When we allow ourselves to be whole and brilliant and to know ourselves... that’s authenticity.

Adhya Rose (49:55):
Yes. And inviting in the parts of ourselves we don’t like so much, too. Living in grace and forgiveness. Trusting ourselves.

The most amazing thing you can do is come forward with all of who you are. And surrender.

Kim Romain (51:23):
And bringing that into the systems we create. That’s how we get to ease. That’s how we hold peace of mind—so we can let go of control.

Kim Romain (52:06):
Where can people find you in the world?

Adhya Rose (52:20):
Instagram and LinkedIn are great. My website is adhyarose.com.

Kim Romain (52:39):
And what do you have coming up?

Adhya Rose (52:47):
I have a 12-month program called Scaling with Ease for purpose-driven entrepreneurs. Each month we implement a different system—from time management to client onboarding to financials—so your business can run more smoothly and sustainably.

I also do monthly bookkeeping, and I teach people how to do their own.

Kim Romain (54:28):
Look how deep you can go with a systems person, y’all. Don’t make assumptions!

Adhya Rose (54:38):
Exactly. I do both—practical systems and deep energetic work. People come up against blocks and beliefs all the time while building systems. So we work with both.

Kim Romain (55:25):
Love it. You're totally speaking my language.

Adhya Rose (55:43):
I’d love to hear more about your money work too—it sounds so aligned.

Kim Romain (55:46):
We’ll have another connection for sure.

Thank you so much for being here. It’s been an absolute joy.

Adhya Rose (55:59):
Thank you for having me. These conversations fill my cup.

Louise Neil (56:11):
So great having you on the show, Adhya. And thank you, listener, for tuning in.

Kim Romain (56:19):
Bye everyone.

Adhya Rose (56:20):
Bye.
