In today’s episode, we explore the sacred space between reaction and response—the pause. When someone brings us a grievance or says they’ve been hurt, it’s so natural to want to defend ourselves. “That’s not what I meant,” we say. But what if we slowed down instead?

We’ll talk about how to practice the pause, why our nervous systems default to defensiveness, and how to hold space for both intention and impact. This isn’t about s...

Healing isn’t always graceful—and it definitely isn’t always “high vibe.”

From my earliest experiences with anxiety to the panic attacks that surfaced during a difficult chapter of my life, breathwork helped me start to feel safe again—one breath at a time.

We’ll explore:

• The moment I realized my breath...

In this episode, I’m sharing what it’s really like to lose connection with yourself—and the slow, powerful process of learning to trust yourself again.

We talk about what self-trust means, how burnout and people-pleasing can quietly erode it, and how I started rebuilding mine after years of outsourcing my truth and silencing my intuition.

I share personal reflections on leaving a job that was draining my mental health, the co...

In this episode, I’m diving deep into one of the most uncomfortable—and most necessary—parts of healing: boundaries.

We’re talking about what boundaries really are (and what they aren’t), the different types we all need to recognize, and how I’ve learned to set them in my own life—even when it’s felt messy, emotional, or full of guilt.
