It’s time to start fighting unreasonably hard for the life you want. I want this first episode of the New Year to remind you that waiting for things to feel easier, clearer and less scary are preventing you from taking the first messy, but critical steps in the right direction. 

Even if you don’t have the end figured out, sitting around hoping everything will eventually manifest itself isn’t doing anything.

I’m also sharing a couple new announcements for the Room To Grow™ podcast, news about my forthcoming book, and my 2024 Words of the Year - an annual practice that helps me stay undeniably committed to a particular goal, while helping make those big, hard decisions much easier. Try it for yourself!

In this episode, we’re talking about:

  • Why trying to manifest everything won’t work
  • Redefining the stories we tell ourselves
  • Taking action, even without the full plan in place
  • Fearing the unknown and searching for safety
  • How to manage fear and uncertainty
  • How to avoid self-judgment
  • Why we fear our own success
  • How to build trust in ourselves
  • An exercise for centering yourself and shifting your energy in the moment

I say this every year, but this podcast is one of my favourite things I do as a Human Connection Coach. I absolutely love hearing from you on how these topics show up in your life and am always open to talking more about these and other topics you want to hear more about. Please email me or DM me on Instagram anytime!

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
