Ever had a moment where everything felt fine… until it wasn’t?

In this episode, I share a deeply personal story about an emotional blow-up with my husband—how it unfolded, what it triggered, and what it taught me about fear, shame, and self-protection.

This isn't just a story about relationships. It’s a mirror for what so many of us experience in business, creativity, and visibility:
That moment when a hidden landmine gets tripped, and before we even know we’re in a fear response, we’ve shut down, disappeared, or lit a match to something we care about.

I talk about:

  • The shame spiral that follows emotional triggers
  • The old pattern of blowing up and walking away
  • How these same dynamics show up in creative and professional life
  • The mind-body tools that help me stay with myself and rebuild connection
  • Why this is the exact work I do with my 1:1 coaching clients


If you’ve ever ghosted your own dreams after a hit of self-doubt, or found yourself in a freeze state without knowing why—this episode will speak to you.


And if you’re ready to move through fear without burning out or abandoning yourself…
