In this episode, I share a story about a conversation that led to being misunderstood—and the powerful reminder it gave me. Some of the hardest moments come when you know who you are, but someone else sees something different.
If you’ve ever been misjudged, or if you feel like you have to hide parts of yourself to avoid being misunderstood, or even just in case you could be, this one’s for you.

If you try to rest and just end up feeling more anxious, more guilty, or more overwhelmed… you’re not alone.
In this episode, I’m unpacking why resting is so hard even when you know you need it.
Because it’s not just about taking a break.
We’re getting honest about why rest feels wrong for so many of us and how it’s not laziness, it’s actually part of our survival wiring.
We’ll talk about what your nervous system really...

If you’ve ever felt like you had to pick one truth this is your episode.
We’ve been taught to think in black and white. All or nothing. You’re either healed or you’re not. Successful or failing.
Disciplined or off track. But the truth about the truth?
Both can be true.
This episode is your permission slip to stop using your humanness against yourself and start seeing your setbacks as part of the path, not proof that you...

Let’s talk about burnout something so many of us can relate to but that never really serves us.
In this episode, I break down what burnout actually is, where it really comes from, and how to recognize it (even when it doesn’t look like total exhaustion). Because burnout doesn’t always mean crashing on the couch. It can look like overthinking, people-pleasing, or just feeling off no matter how much you’re doing.

This episode is a wake-up call.
We’re talking about belief...the kind that changes how you show up, how you handle inconvenience, setbacks, and the day-to-day stuff that makes most people quit.
What would shift if you actually believed your goal was inevitable?
If you knew you could create any result. Whether it’s in your business, your life, or your body?
Would you keep spinning? Holding back? Starting over?

We spend a lot of time noticing what’s wrong. What’s missing. What we need to fix.
But what if we started by looking at what’s already working?
In this episode, I walk you through a simple but powerful activity to help you find the thoughts that are already for you, thoughts that prove you’re more ready than you think.
You don’t need to earn belief. You already have some.
Let’s find it and build from there.

Ever feel like you’re doing all the things but still stuck in the same place?
In this episode, I’m not giving you answers — I’m talking about the kinds of questions that change everything. The ones that stop you in your tracks, shake you out of the story you’ve been telling, and call you into something deeper.
Because the right question? It pulls you out of patterns. It makes you look at where you’ve been outsourcing your pow...

In this episode, we’re talking about Gratitude, Enoughness, and Sufficiency—the trio that shifts you out of lack and into expansion. You’ll learn how gratitude anchors you in what’s good, enoughness reminds you of who you are, and sufficiency grounds you in what you already have. When these three work together, life feels lighter, your energy expands, and you stop chasing validation or “more” from outside sources. I’ll also share h...

Why do we sabotage the goals we want most—whether it’s more money, business growth, or weight loss?
In this bonus episode, I’m sharing why self-sabotage isn’t proof you’re not good enough—it’s a signal your nervous system doesn’t feel safe with the next level of success. You'll learn how resistance shows up in your body, and what it takes to move forward with compassion instead of force.

What if you didn’t need rock-solid confidence to go after what you want—just a little willingness and someone who believes in you?
In this episode, I’m talking to the part of you that wants more—but doesn’t know if you’re really capable of it. I’ll share why belief is something you build, not something you’re born with, and why so many of my clients come to me in the middle of doubt… and leave with grounded confidence.

As human beings, we are creators by nature.
And creators are, by nature, incredibly powerful.
In this episode, I talk about what it means to live from that truth—to remember that you're always creating something, whether you're conscious of it or not. I break down the ways we create through our thoughts, emotions, choices, and energy—and the difference between creating from disempowerment versus true personal power.

In this episode, I open up about sitting in deep shame for days—not because of just one moment, but because I uncovered a pattern that’s been fueling self-sabotage in my life for years. The shame kept showing up, and instead of pushing it away this time, I turned and faced it head on.
I talk about the four ways shame tries to protect us, why our brain offers it so easily, and how we can’t actually heal from a place of shame. I s...

In this episode, I’m the one in the hot seat. I was interviewed by my current coach, Louise, for her podcast, and the conversation was too powerful not to share here.
We talk about the patterns that shape so many high achievers—the invisible pressures, the belief systems we inherit or create, and the behaviors we repeat to feel safe, worthy, or in control.
You’ll hear how these patterns form, why they’re so hard to see when y...

For years, I felt stuck—trapped in a cycle of eating to cope, restricting to regain control, and then sabotaging myself all over again. I hid food, saw my body as something to fix, and felt like I would never be free.
But everything changed when I stopped believing food was the problem and started understanding my thoughts, my emotions, and how I was using food for safety.
