In this empowering solo episode, I’m sharing exactly what changed when I stopped drinking over five years ago — physically, emotionally, spiritually, and socially. This is more than a sobriety story. It’s a call to check in with yourself and ask: Is alcohol actually helping me feel better? Or is it holding me back?

We get into:

• The physical healing I didn’t expect
• The spiritual side of drinking (and why they call it “spirits”)
• Why ...

In this episode, I’m getting honest about the scarcity mindset so many of us are stuck in — and how I’m starting to shift out of it.

I share a personal story from my own life, the importance of reevaluating our routines, and a simple 15-minute morning mindset check-in (thanks to Brendon Burchard) that’s been helping me stay on task, aligned, and motivated.

We also talk about reclaiming time, ditching mindless habits, and moving your ...

She’s also a wellness coach for high-achieving women, a leader with Amare – The Mental Wellness Company, and the host of the Thrive With ...

Ever feel like you should be thriving — but instead you’re just tired, foggy, or not quite yourself?

If you’re in your 30s or approaching 40, you’re not alone. So many women are waking up to the realization that what once worked — the late nights, the drinks, the constant “go-go-go” — just… doesn’t anymore.

This is the episode for you if you're starting to feel the nudge to slow down, clean up your habits, and reconnect with wha...

Last night Michelle went to a yoga session with instructor Monique and it was more than just movement; it was a journey into the heart of love. Between poses, she posed a question that lingered: "If we can give so much love to others, why don't we offer that same love to ourselves?"​

This inquiry led us to explore the concept of self-love—not as a luxury, but as a necessity. Monique introduced the idea of "coatin...

In this episode, I sit down with Alexandra McCalla, a Breathwork & Somatic Therapist and founder of Somatic Intelligence. We dive into how past traumas can keep us stuck and how somatic therapy helps us process emotions, release stress, and reconnect with our true selves.

Feeling stuck? Lacking purpose? You’re not alone.

In this episode, I’m opening up about a season of uncertainty—how losing my job and a close friendship shook my sense of direction and what I’m doing to move forward. I’ll share the mindset shifts, daily habits, and powerful realizations that are helping me reconnect with my purpose. Plus, I’m bringing back deep, inspiring conversations on the podcast!

AND—BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 🎉 I’m hos...

The holidays can be a beautiful time of year, but for many of us, it also brings added stress—family gatherings, endless to-do lists, financial pressures, and an overwhelming abundance of food. If you’ve ever found yourself turning to emotional eating, feeling guilty afterward, or punishing yourself with restrictive habits or excessive workouts, know that you are not alone.

On this week’s podcast, I’m joined by Amber Romaniuk, an Em...

Life doesn’t always move in a straight line. Sometimes, we find ourselves in the messy middle—navigating change, uncertainty, and the in-between spaces where we’re not quite where we were, but not yet where we want to be.

In this episode of Muve Forward, I open up about my own life transition. I’ve faced big shifts recently—losing a steady job, building my activewear brand Muve Life, and trying to grow this podcast into something im...

Do you ever feel like you’re holding yourself back? Like you’re living a version of your life that’s smaller than what you’re capable of? If so, you’re not alone. So many of us fall into the trap of “playing it safe,” thinking it’s easier or less stressful. But is it really?

Here’s the truth: staying small might feel comfortable, but it’s not fulfilling. It’s not fun. And it’s definitely not the way to create a life you’re excited a...

Life has a way of surprising us, sometimes in ways we least expect. For over 13 years, I found comfort and stability in a job that provided financial security and a sense of routine. But deep down, I had a feeling that it was time to move on and create space for something new. I didn't act on this feeling, and as the universe often does, it made the decision for me. Losing my job was a shock, but it also presented an incredibl...
