WE WOKE UP LIKE THIS: A PODCAST DEDICATED TO AWAKENING, THE LIBERATION FROM ILLUSION & SUFFERING AND LIVING A SOULUMINOUS LIFE.
We Woke Up Like This is more than a podcast; it’s a sanctuary, a spiritual practice, and a call to liberation. This journey is designed to resonate with your soul, guiding you to embody your divine light and live in freedom, wholeness, and truth. Dedicated to empowering women on paths of self-discovery, healing, and personal transformation, and for The Wayshowers, looking for community and support, we explore four core themes in 2025:
Q1: Liberate Your True Self: Focuses on foundational self-discovery and awakening to infinite possibilities.
Q2: Empowerment Through Alignment and Freedom: Builds strength and alignment to live in freedom and authenticity.
Q3: Healing for Radical Freedom: Deep healing creates the inner freedom needed to lead and embody power.
Q4: Freedom to Lead and Transform: Culminates in embodied leadership and global transformation.
Each weekly episode offers insights and tools to help you connect with your true self and lead a luminous life filled with purpose and fulfillment, and other episodes dedicated solely to sound healing, voice, sacred music, movement and breathwork.
52 topics with many experts + 52 Souluminating Conversations with Joya - 2 episodes a week guiding you with wisdom, stories, science, philosophy, inspiration, sound healing education and practices to guide your luminous becoming.
Have a listen - and I love hearing what you think, ideas for a show or constructive critiques to make the show even better!

Joya always dreamed of being Nancy Drew—or a priest. She’s spent her life asking BIG questions and seeking answers, passionately solving life’s mysteries one insight at a time. With Gene Key 26.4 in her Vocation, deep, meaningful conversations are her playground; she loves connecting with brilliant minds, listening deeply, and learning through powerful exchanges.
As a “9” on the ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences Score), Joya is profoundly committed to showing others that healing trauma and breaking generational cycles of pain so we can truly thrive is possible. Her journey is anchored in consciousness expansion through sound, rewiring the neuropathways with mindfulness, self-discovery through Vibrational Arts, playfulness, and liberating others from self-imposed limitations through expression.
Joya originally launched this podcast as The Powerful Creator Show in 2019, rebranding to We Woke Up Like This in 2023. After a transformative hiatus in 2024 to travel to sacred places and answer the call to deepen her own awakening, she’s back in 2025 with a visionary approach and structured content designed to empower you to grow and evolve. This podcast is a sanctuary, a toolkit, and a call to action, guiding you to embody your highest self and become the woman you’re meant to be.
