We Didn't Plan For This Special Series

This series exists because so many of you reached out and said, “I didn’t plan for this either.”

If you’ve gone through a diagnosi...

When you’re ready to loosen your grip, press play. 

Tonight’s practice is an invitation to experience deep rest without needing to fall asleep.

Yoga Nidra—often called yogic sleep—guides you to relax your body while your mind remains gently aware. Through breath awareness, rotation of consciousness, visualization, and quiet reflection, you’ll be invited to loosen your grip on the thoughts that keep ...

When stress has made itself a little too comfortable and won't take a hint, press play.

Stress doesn't just live in our thoughts or the world around us - it settles into our muscles, connective tissue, and joints. It can even change the way we breathe. Your body can literally become a storage unit for stress to unload 

This practice is perfect for anytime you notice yourself becoming tight, tense,  overwhelmed, or anxious.

N...

We thought we were just taking a beach trip. 
Instead, the drive, the music, and a quiet morning on the water reminded us that grief doesn’t stay home when you leave town.

This isn’t an episode about moving on.

It’s about learning there’s room for both.

If you’ve ever wondered why grief catches you off guard—or questioned whether it’s okay to laugh while you’re still mourning&mda...

The Stories We Tell Ourselves: Rewrite Your Inner Dialogue

The way you speak to yourself matters! Your thoughts influence your choices and the opportunities you believe are possible. Sometimes the biggest obstacle isn’t what’s happening around you—it’s the story you’ve been telling yourself for years.

This isn’t about pretending everything is perfect. It’s about recognizing that you have the ...

Can't make it to the beach today? We got you.

Life gets LOUD! Emails. Traffic. Notifications. Responsibilities. Adulting. Before you know it, your nervous system has been on red all day.

This meditation is your invitation to step away from the noise and spend a few peaceful minutes at the beach. 

Let your imagination do the traveling. So, settle your toes in the warm sand, breathe with the rhythm of the waves and leave the stress...

Nora’s back! Natalie and Adrienne survived. And after being away for months, one thing became abundantly clear…People still be peopling!

A quick disclaimer: We did our best to censor names… but a few slipped through. That’s because either (1) they’ll never listen to this podcast, (2) they genuinely don’t give a sh*t, or (3) they know we’re telling the story because they’re ab...

Peace isn’t something you have to chase. It’s something you can return to.

So much of our day is spent replaying the past or worrying about what’s next that we forget the only place peace actually exists—the present moment.

In this guided meditation, you’ll slow down your breath, quiet the constant conversation in your mind, and reconnect with where you are right now. There is nothing to solve. Nothing t...

Color has the power to influence the way we feel—and when paired with intentional breathing, it can become a powerful tool for calming the mind and reconnecting with yourself.

In this guided meditation, you’ll journey through the colors of the rainbow, using each breath to explore the qualities traditionally associated. From the grounding energy of red to the peaceful connection of violet, you’ll be invited to rele...

My Dad’s Chili 

What reminds you of the people you love? For some, it’s a song. A photograph. A place. A favorite recipe. For Adrienne’s daughter Mallory, it was her Dad’s chili.

In this special episode, Mallory shares her college admissions essay she wrote after losing her dad halfway through her junior year of high school. Through one simple memory, she captures what grief feels like, how life changes a...

How often do you offer yourself the same kindness you so freely give to everyone else?

This guided meditation is a gentle reminder that self-compassion isn’t something you earn—it’s something you practice. Through mindful breathing, learn to soften your self-critic and release your attachment to perfection. Give yourself a few moments to reconnect with the part of you that deserves patience, understanding, and care...

Courage isn’t the absence of fear—it’s choosing to move forward even when fear riding shotgun beside you.

This guided meditation is for the moments when life feels uncertain, overwhelming, or just plain hard. Whether you’re facing a difficult conversation or simply trying to make it through today, this practice will help you reconnect with the quiet strength that’s already within you.

Take a few minutes ...

Wait...I thought you said no chemo?!

Those are words no one wants to hear after believing the hardest part is over.

In this follow-up conversation, Nora shares what happened when her treatment plan changed. After preparing for one surgery, she found herself facing a second surgery, waiting on pathology results, and confronting the possibility of chemotherapy.

Together, Adrienne and Nora talk about the emotional roller coaster of chang...

Some seasons of life don’t come with clear answers.

Maybe you’re waiting on news or facing a tough decision. Maybe everything feels uncertain and your mind won’t stop trying to solve tomorrow before today is even over.

This meditation is an invitation to loosen your grip on needing to know. You don’t have to have all the answers tonight. You don’t have to make every decision today. For just a few minutes...

For exhausted humans, perfectionists, widows, parents, and caregivers.

Have you ever had the feeling like you should be do more, accomplish more, heal faster, or somehow handle life better than you are?

This guided meditation is an invitation to step away from comparison, perfectionism, and the constant pressure to do more. For the next few minutes, you’ll be reminded that your worth is not measured by your productivity, your a...

Grief doesn’t always arrive when we expect it.

Sometimes it’s a song on the radio, a photograph, or a memory that suddenly brings a wave of emotion crashing in.

This guided meditation isn’t about fixing, understanding, or making grief smaller. It’s about creating space and allow yourself to move through it one breath at a time.

Whether your loss is recent or years old, grief has a way of showing up when it need...

The move they never planned. 

In this week’s episode, you’ll hear a conversation between Campbell and Nora about college, independence, grief, and what it feels like to move forward after losing a parent. The milestones Brian should be here for, and the unexpected ways family can show up when life takes a turn no one saw coming.

It’s a conversation about change, uncertainty, and learning to carry someone with y...

It’s Father’s Day weekend. It’s also the weekend Campbell moved to Birmingham to begin her next chapter. For Adrienne, these two milestones collide in a way she never expected.

In this personal episode of We Didn’t Plan for This, Adrienne reflects on the first Father’s Day without Brian, the reality of sending a daughter off to college without her dad, and the unexpected emotions that come with watching...

Life has a way of pulling us in every direction. We replay conversations, worry about tomorrow, and carry the weight of things that haven’t even happened yet.

This guided meditation is an invitation to gently return to the only place you can actually be: here.

Through breath, awareness, and simple observation, you’ll be guided back to the present moment—one breath at a time.

There is nothing t...
