Ever found yourself in the middle of a massive life transition, where everything feels uncertain, messy, and undone?  That's exactly where I am right now—deep in the growth zone as I say goodbye to one chapter and step into another with our big move to Georgia. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to trust the process when the full picture isn't clear yet.  I'll share some of the biggest turning points in my life—breakups, job losses, business pivots—and how each time, I had to follow the breadcrumbs to my next aligned step. You'll hear: The breakup that completely unraveled me—but ultimately led me to deep self-love and growth. How getting laid off unexpectedly became the catalyst for my purpose-driven business. Why I'm approaching this move (and everything in flux) with trust, even when I can't see the full path ahead. Simple ways to tune into your next breadcrumb moment when you feel stuck or uncertain. If you're navigating change—whether it's a career shift, relationship ending, or just a feeling that life is reshuffling around you—this episode will remind you that clarity comes from taking the next step, not having all the answers.

In this solo episode, I'm diving deep into the power of holding a clear vision, especially in times of transition and uncertainty. Right now, I'm navigating one of the biggest changes of my life—moving my family to another state. It's overwhelming, emotional, and exciting all at once.  Through it all, I'm leaning on the practice of visioning to help me stay grounded, trust the process, and step into what's next with intention. I also share a deeply personal experience—how I used this practice to overcome my fear of getting a mammogram after a past traumatic experience.  If you're in a season of change, uncertainty, or fear, this episode is for you. Inside, I share: The intensity of moving and how I'm staying connected to the vision of what's next How holding a clear vision helped me navigate my recent mammogram experience with ease How the mind influences our reality and why feeding it the right vision is key A simple but powerful practice to create clarity and momentum when you feel lost or stuck Why holding a vision doesn't mean controlling the outcome—but rather, empowering yourself in the unknown Want My ‘New Chapter' Playlist?

In this solo episode, I'm diving deep into the bittersweet experience of navigating big life changes—specifically, the process of unknitting yourself from a life that feels tightly woven. I share my personal journey as I prepare to leave a familiar chapter behind—a home, a community, routines, and a vision for the future—and step into the unknown. I explore: The grief and emotional waves that come with letting go of a place and a life you've built. The fear and uncertainty of starting over in a new chapter—and why that can feel so disorienting. How past transitions—leaving college, moving homes, or ending relationships—mirror this experience and teach us to trust the process. Why change always feels like a mix of pain, growth, and renewal. Through the ups and downs of this transition, I'm finding ways to navigate the grief, fear, and gratitude that coexist in this season of life.  This episode is an invitation to reflect on how you face change and to find peace in the knowing that endings always make room for new beginnings.   To submit your question, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook

In this episode, I'm exploring the idea of self-composure and elegance—how we can handle life's messy, challenging moments with more grace and strength. This was sparked by a story I heard on the Honestly with Bari Weiss podcast, where Peggy Noonan shared a simple but powerful response to rudeness: “How extraordinary.”  It made me think about how we've lost touch with calm and composed strength, especially in a world that feels so reactive—online and in real life. What would it look like to embody elegance in the way we respond to challenges and conflict?  That's what I'm diving into today, along with how I'm working on this in my own life. It's not about perfection—it's about choosing intention and grace, even in hard moments.   To submit your question, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook

Happy June! In this week's episode, I share why this month - and the summer season in general - is such a nostalgic time of year for me. And remains one of my favorites. While summer can bring so much energy and aliveness to our lives, it can also inspire slowness and an “out of office” vibe that takes us out of the momentum of growth as entrepreneurs. This isn't necessarily a bad thing - but we want to make sure we find a way to balance out the play and the productivity in an intentional way. Which is why I share 6 things I'm doing to enjoy summertime while also making important and consistent moves inside my business. Enjoy!   To submit your question, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook

Today I'm diving into one of the best ways to serve your clients and potentially scale your business (if that's your goal!), and that is through GROUP PROGRAMS. So, if you've been thinking about creating one, are about to launch one, or are looking to refine the one you've been running for years - This episode is for you. Group programs are magic for a few reasons: They give you the opportunity to have a bigger impact beyond private, one-on-one offers. Instead of serving a handful of clients at once, you can serve many more. They create community which is a highly transformative component of the human experience. Being held in community is often the special sauce behind the best group programs. They are often rinse and repeat in nature. You can create content for them once - like video lessons, audio lessons, homework assignments - and be done aside from ongoing tweaks and enhancements. They usually require less of your time and energy. Instead of having daily private calls with clients, you have one weekly group call and you're done for the week. They have more earning potential. There are a variety of ways to structure a group program, but oftentimes there isn't a cap on how many people you can enroll at once. And if there is, you can make it a high ticket offer that brings in multiple 5 figures each time you run it. So lots of reasons to create one, right? Now, how does one create a program that produces results - that both delivers to the clients who invest and earns a decent chunk of change. That's what I'm going to share with you today.   To submit your question, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook

Today's topic was inspired by a recent conversation with a client who has spent a decade trying to get her health coaching business off the ground. But, as she shared with me, has had very little success. Just like so many people who start businesses, she knows she's meant to help people - she yearns to change lives, but can't figure out why it's been such a struggle. As I chatted with her to help identify what's been in the way of her building momentum, making money, and having an impact… I discovered two core things that have been holding her back without her knowing it.  Giving up on her ideas and creations too soon. Looking for the perfect formula or framework. Inside the episode, I share how these have played a big role in blocking momentum, clients, and money from flowing easily in her direction. I also share how I started my business mentorship program, Your Wellness Brand, in 2017, and how I could have perceived it as a failure - but instead stayed the course and earned multiple 6-figures from that revenue stream alone. If you're someone who is feeling like you've failed recently, I see you and it's my hope that this episode lifts your spirits and inspires you to keep going; to see things all the way through; and to always, trust your instincts.   To submit your question, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook Instagram
