Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit Okay, friend—this episode is tender. It's sacred. It's not easy... but it's important. I sat down with Ellie Ledin from Inheritance of Hope, and we talked about something most of us avoid: death. Not in a scary or heavy way—but in a real, beautiful, and deeply human way. Ellie and her team work with families facing terminal illness, helping them create legacy videos and—get this—legacy songs (cue my tears). But here's the thing: this episode isn't just for people going through the unthinkable. It's for all of us. Truly. What they do there is open for any family, any parent, any child -- you don't have to wait. Because legacy doesn't start when life is ending. It starts in the small, ordinary moments. In this conversation, we talk about: Why our culture avoids talking about death—and why we need to How to start thinking about your legacy now, no matter your season The power of community to carry one another's weight Lighting candles along the way so the darkness doesn't feel so sudden And Ellie's simple but powerful mantra: “Blessed am I.” This conversation moved me. It slowed me down. Made me cry. And it helped me see things differently. I hope it does the same for you.

✨ New Year, Fresh Start... Starts NOW!✨ Tired of resolutions that don't stick? Let's skip the guilt and start 2025 with clarity and intention. In this episode, we will walk (or skip or even sashay - my fave!) through reflecting on your year, leaving behind what doesn't serve you, and setting realistic, meaningful goals for the months ahead. You're going to especially love the story of Maddy and Braeden and the "hill".
☃️Feeling like the holidays are less “holly jolly” and more “hustle and hurry”? You're not alone. Between endless to-do lists, packed calendars, and the pressure to make everything picture-perfect, December can feel anything but peaceful. But what if this year could be different? What if you could find calm amid the chaos? I am convinced that with a little attention to it (don't worry - this won't take long!) that we can find at least one Silent Night this month. In this episode, we're chatting practical and actionable ways to de-stress your December, so you can actually enjoy the holidays. Here's what we'll cover:
☁️Imagine ONE phrase that could reduce future stress, help you be crazy productive, and get ahead of the game.... that's what this episode is all about. Forget MULTI-TASKING, this is about MINDFUL BATCHING. Ever found yourself waiting for water to boil
If you've ever wondered what I talk about on the regular with my friends -- this would be the episode for you. And brace yourselves because there's no "small talk" allowed. We start off right away with identity, crisis, authenticity, conflict of self --- and that's just the beginning! My trusted friend and much respected peer, Executive Director, Heather Daniel-Kent gives her all when it comes to showing us how to "LEAD OURSELVES WELL". From all of the tools that many of us know and love: love languages, basic needs, StrengthsFinders, enneagram and more, she gives us her genius on how to use that for our benefit and for others. And if anyone can talk about how to do "hard things" it would be this girl who swam the famed Alcatraz swim and lived to tell about it. Learn what lessons she discovered by pushing herself to the limit. And find out if she's crazy enough to do it again. You are going to love this collab convo between two really good friends who want every day to be better than the last. Connect with Heather: On Social:
