“Summer needs a slightly different plan layered on top of your 90-day plan.”
–Mia
Do you ever lose sight of your goals over the summer — or get resentful because other things are happening?
Routines and schedules change. You’re traveling or having visitors. There’s often a desire for spontaneity that’s different from the rest of the year. And it’s hot, our energy may dip, even as longer days feel like more time to do things.
Things g...
“Once I put the plan in place, I have to let go of it, meaning that there needs to be space in my life to listen to my intuition.”
–Dr. Mary Sanders
You are highly intuitive. Are you listening and trusting the golden nuggets you are receiving? I’m talking with Dr. Mary Sanders, a chiropractor, a medical intuitive, and a positive psychologist about intuition, energy, and grounding.
Mary’s story, like most, isn’t linear. She takes us ...
“What would happen if I spent a whole day on my body, mind and soul?”
–Mia
What would you do if you focused on YOU for a month?
I get really intentional about planning my birthday month, and I’m going to show you how to do that so you can plan for your birthday month too. If your birthday is far away, go put a reminder in your calendar two weeks before your birthday with the link to this episode. Or decide you’re going to embrace pla...
“If it ain't joyful, I ain't doing that shit.”
–M. Shannon Hernandez
I’m talking to M. Shannon Hernandez, author of Practical Joy: Simple Tools to Cultivate More Joy Every Day and founder of Joyful Business Revolution. She opens with her mantra: If it ain’t joyful, I ain’t doing that shit,” and we dive in from there.
Shannon explains the difference between joy and happiness this way: Joy is an inside job, while happiness comes from t...
Why does follow-through sometimes feel impossible—even when you know what you want?
In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most overlooked (and powerful) parts of the FLOW planning process: vision. This step is something you can access in minutes, even seconds, to help you move forward when you feel stuck.
If you’ve been feeling frozen, overwhelmed, or like you “just can’t move,” this isn’t about discipline or doing more. It’s a...
“That's why the natal chart is so cool and human design and gene keys are these beautiful tools that give us permission to be ourselves.”
–Danielle Hendrickson
I’m a Gemini. For a long time, that’s all I knew about astrology. But it fascinated me. Turns out, all I knew was my Sun sigh, and I’m really interested in Moons, because the moon maps to the feminine cycle.
I’m excited to share this conversation with Venusian astrologer Danie...
If follow-through feels harder than it should, the problem might not be your plan. It might be that you’re skipping the most important step.
In this episode, Mia shares why getting centered is essential to productivity and how a simple pause can shift everything. Learn how centering helps you stop repeating the past, connect to your future self, and actually follow through on what matters.
Plus, discover quick, practical ways to rese...
“Make sure that you're not just posting and running away.”
–Nina Froriep
How do we start to use LinkedIn in a really smart way? I’ll admit I have mixed feelings, but I’m trying to embrace it. There’s no one better to help do that than Nina Froriep, a content + engagement strategist and a LinkedIn personal brand builder.
My first aha from Nina — LinkedIn likes and rewards consistency and engagement. It’s not enough to just put stuff ...
“When you are multi-passionate, you are invited to exercise your muscle of presence and priorities and capacity.”
–Tess Masters
What if being multipassionate was your greatest gift — not a flaw?
Tess Masters embraces her multipassionate life. She runs an amazing nutrition platform, which helps women over 40, be healthy again and lose weight and have energy and sleep and not have hot flashes. But she doesn’t stop there. She’s an actre...
Concentrating during chaos can feel impossible — especially when life is unpredictable, confusing, and messy (hello, snowstorms… and everything else happening in the world). In this episode, I’m sharing a simple metaphor I couldn’t stop thinking about: the trees outside my window.
It really struck me that nature isn’t fighting chaotic weather — it’s prepared for it.
We’ll talk about why your brain interprets chaos as a threat (and wh...
“Boring isn’t about making life smaller — it’s about finally doing what I said I wanted to do.” —Mia
My highly passionate, creative, maybe ADHD, manifesting generator — or simply feeling scattered — sisters, I hope you find one piece in here that helps you.
I’ve chosen “boring” as my word of the year.
The need for boring energy has shown up through the health challenges of the past two years — a diagnosis that led to brain surgery, a ...
“Curiosity is a foundation for connection.”
–Nathalie Pincham
Doing everything you’re supposed to do and just running on fumes? Knowing you’re good at what you do (but starting to wonder) because business is floundering? You’re not alone! And there are things you can do. I’m diving into that with coach Nathalie Pincham.
Nathalie works with people on both strategy and success mindset. That includes figuring out what’s holding you back...
“When we’re planning our year, we’re at eagle view. When we’re living our day, we’re at mouse view—and we don’t want to mix those up.” - Mia
If you’ve ever felt behind because you didn’t start your “year plan” on January 1st, this episode is for you. In this episode of the Plan Simple Podcast, I’m sharing why I love a 12-month plan you can start anytime—and the simple framework I use to create a calming, big-picture map for the next...
“Our success, our happiness, our life depends on the people we know and the relationships we have.”
–Dana Hilmer
Do you have an Abundance spreadsheet? I have one that includes clients, past clients, partners, people I want to connect with. Sometimes it guides my connection … and sometimes I just start reaching out and serving people. Because more connection is amazing.
I’m so excited about Dana Hilmer, the Unretirement Transition Co...
“Take what resonates, add your own magic and swipe left on the rest.”
–Heather Dressel
Winter calls us inward, but the world can be noisy. What if you could get quiet enough to hear your inner guides? I’m so excited to have Heather Dressel — I call her the intuition whisperer — back on the show.
We tend to love spring and summer, the energy of creation and productivity. Winter can look so still and lifeless, but so much is percolati...
“Journaling is one of the quickest, most readily available tools to tap into your soul.”
–Kim Marie
Too much hustle and feel like there should be more in this season? December is a potent time to figure out what's next. I’m talking with Kim Marie, creator of the Sacred Nights of Winter journal, about the sacred pause of this season.
Winter lends itself to slowing down and going inward, which makes it a powerful time for journaling. W...
In this episode, I talk about the unobvious reasons planning feels hard — the tiny, hidden parts of a plan that quietly derail our follow through. I share real examples from life, business, and the holiday season, and show how supporting ourselves differently makes everything feel more doable. If you’re stepping into a full month or year and want planning to feel easier and more aligned, this is for you.
I’m talking about the power of the pause, how it’s not a break from life, but an essential part of how we live, plan, and create. When I give myself space to pause, I reconnect to what matters most. In this episode, I share how pause has become my most important practice, how it shapes the way I plan, and why it’s the key to moving forward with more intention, ease, and alignment.
December can be the rush… or the reset. In this episode, I’m sharing why I’m so passionate about making December matter—how I went from hanging on to the season to aligning it with what my family and I actually need. I tell the stories: the year we cozied and decorated everything for a kid who needed softness, the year we all agreed to travel, and the year I dreamed a whole new chapter from my couch.
If you’re craving a gentler, m...
“At some point, feeling good wins over old thoughts.”
