It’s about relief.

In this episode, I share the 10 most important things I learned during my hardest season living in addiction, specifically food addiction, but this conversation goes far beyond food.

If you’ve ever felt trapped in a pattern you “should be past,”

This is the final episode of the year, and I’m sharing it from a place of deep gratitude, honesty, and real life.

In this episode, I talk about what it actually looks like to end a year without dragging shame, regret, or old identities into the next one.

In this episode, we step into Pathway 3 of The Return of You™: Belief Reclamation and explore a question most people never ask: Do your beliefs actually match the life you’re working for?

Why you procrastinate, spiral, avoid, or disconnect. And why none of this means you’re broken — it mean...

Every single one of us has big desires — the identity we want to step into, the results we’re working toward, the life we know we’re meant for. And yet… we keep getting pulled off our path. We know what we want. We feel the potential inside us. We try to show up differently. But something inside hijacks us — again and again. In this episode, I’m breaking down the Two D’s that derail you every single time if you’re...

In this episode, I’m breaking down what identity actually is — and why it stops so many of us from rising into the next level of our lives. Most people think they’re stuck because they're unmotivated, undisciplined, or “not ready yet.” But the truth is simpler: Your brain is wired for external safety… but transformation requires internal safety. Your current identity was built to protect you. It knows how to surv...
