Between school drop-offs, work deadlines, and folding the same hoodie for the 5th time — joy can feel like a luxury. But I’ve found one powerful, free, and instant way to shift my mood when life gets heavy: dancing. Whether it’s in the kitchen, in the car, or full-on 90s music video energy in your living room — dancing helps you reconnect to joy, reset your brain, and remind your body it’s made for more than just getting stuff done...
Ever find yourself at the edge of burnout wondering, “Should I just quit, rest, or keep going?” I got you. Sometimes you’re not tired — you’re misaligned. And knowing whether to pivot, pause, or push through might be the difference between staying stuck and stepping forward. This episode is full of real talk and real tools to help you figure out which P you need right now.

Let’s get one thing straight — naps are not just for toddlers. They’re for moms who are running on fumes, showing up for everyone else, and putting themselves dead last. I used to side-eye naps like, "Who has time for that?" But now? I’m waving the nap flag high. In this episode, I’m breaking down why taking a nap is not lazy — it’s leadership. We’re not just reclaiming time… we’re reclaiming energy.
What we’re covering:
What if I told you the key to changing your life wasn’t adding more to your plate — but making better use of what you’re already doing? I’m talking about turning everyday routines like brushing your teeth or brewing coffee into powerful, life-shifting habits. That’s called habit stacking, and once you learn how to use it, the game changes. No pressure, no perfection. Just small moves that build real momentum.
You don’t need a brand-...
So you’re tired… but is it more than that? If you're constantly overwhelmed, snappy, or feeling like you're running on fumes no matter how much sleep or coffee you get — you might be dealing with burnout, not just exhaustion. In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between a bad week and full-blown burnout, plus how to spot the sneaky signs before your body makes you sit down.

Let’s keep it real—if you’ve been moving through life feeling like you're stuck in a never-ending loop of work, home, repeat, I see you. I am you. And sis, I got tired of just surviving the days instead of living in them. So I decided it was time to make some intentional shifts to reclaim my presence, my peace, and my joy.
I’m sharing four things I’m doing right now that are helping me climb out of the mundane and step back into...
Back-to-school season is creeping in, but we’re not about to let it catch us slipping. I’m showing you how to reset your home, your head, and your calendar — without the stress. This episode is your step-by-step plan to ease into structure, prep the family, and get your time back with peace.

Do you ever do everything in a day and still feel like you accomplished nothing? That kind of chaos where your brain’s buzzing, your to-do list is screaming, and your calendar looks like a toddler scribbled on it?
Let’s fix that.
This episode is your permission slip to stop letting life boss you around. I’m breaking down a super simple, super effective 3-list system to help you actually get stuff done—and feel good about it.

Ever feel like you clock out of your job only to come home and clock into your other job — the one with no paycheck but all the pressure? If you're done being the default house manager while everybody else walks around like the help ain't them, this one's for you. From folding parties with Ironheart on Disney+ to switching up my whole approach to chores, I’m sharing how I dropped the resentment, ditched the nagging, and found new w...
You deserve a routine that doesn’t drain you before 9AM.
If your mornings feel like chaos wrapped in a clock, you’re not alone. When I went from remote work to a full office schedule, I thought I could just “push through.” Spoiler: I could not.
I’m sharing the three biggest mistakes I made and the small shifts that actually helped me stop rushing, start calm, and keep my sanity.
Here’s what we’re unpacking:
What if the quiet you’ve been craving finally showed up—and you didn’t know what to do with it? I had a rare week alone, and what I thought would be full of luxury turned into a lesson in true rest, mental space, and what peace actually feels like. Let’s talk about how solitude can shift your whole perspective—and why you need it more than you think.
In the stillness, a few truths quietly surfaced:
Solitude highlights just how lo...
What if the reset you’re craving doesn’t come from a vacation, a new routine, or waking up at 5 a.m.—but from 15 quiet minutes with yourself?
Not hiding. Not multitasking. Just real, intentional silence.
If your brain feels like it has 37 tabs open and your patience is sitting on E, this is your sign to pause. You don’t need a whole weekend away. You don’t need a soundproof room. You just need to make room—for you.
I’m breaking down w...
“Say yes to the help.”
We love to say, “It takes a village,” but too many of us are out here trying to be the whole village by ourselves. You’re doing all the things—kids, work, house, life—and wondering why you’re running on fumes.
I’m breaking down why leaning on others isn’t a weakness, it’s a game changer. And no, your village doesn’t have to be blood to be family.

Survive Tournament Season Like a Pro
You know the vibe — squeaky sneakers, sun in your face, concession stand chaos, and kids bouncing off the walls. But here’s the real talk: how do you survive it without running yourself into the ground?

Alright mama, let’s keep it real—how many hours have you spent in the car, in a folding chair, or pacing the sidelines at practice, wondering what you could be doing with that time? If your hand is up, you're not alone. But I’m flipping the script. Just because you're waiting at practice doesn't mean your time has to go to waste.
What if I told you there’s a way to use that time to actually pour back into you—without add...
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or flat-out exhausted with this new return to office life... I see you. I’m right there with you. It’s been a lot to hold—navigating work, home, expectations, and trying to still be you in the middle of all of it.
This isn’t just about logistics. This is about identity, peace, and trying to find your footing when the ground keeps shifting. So let me offer you three words that have been carr...
You Are Worth the Work: More Than Just Your To-Do List
We’ve been fed this lie that our worth is tied to how much we hustle, how busy we stay, and how much we achieve. But let me tell you, sis—you were worthy before the job, the kids, the never-ending to-do lists. I had to learn that the hard way when I walked away from my so-called "dream job" and realized it didn’t love me back the way I loved it. Let’s break free from t...
My friend Amber has been talking about this for years, but my kids and I weren’t ready. I tucked it away in my “mental thought cabinet,” like one of those tabs you keep open for later.
Then I saw a post from Sam Kelly—you know, the one who calls herself a “feminist for moms” on Instagram—and it hit me: Now is the time; the transfer of household tasks to reduce mom's invisible load of responsibilities.
Hustle culture had me in a chokehold for way too long. Grinding non-stop, always chasing the next goal, always feeling like I should be “doing more.” And honestly? I’m over it. But letting go of that mindset? That’s a whole different battle. I can sleep just fine, but true rest? The kind where you sit down, watch a show, and don’t hear that little voice in your head saying, “You should be reading, working out, researching…” Yeah, t...
