If you've ever wanted a breakthrough in love or life, this conversation is your invitation to explore the gap between where you are and where you want to be — and start creating the beliefs, boundaries, and connections that will close it. In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with The Opposite of Settling author, creator, and mindfulness expert Case Kenny — best known for his viral red handwritten quotes on Instagram — to talk about how the language we use, the trust we extend, and the clarity we command can transform our relationships and our lives. We dive into why “settling down” might be the worst sales pitch for love, the hidden cost of breadcrumbing, and the power of high-maintenance love rooted in reciprocity. Case shares how he turns prompts into powerful self-realizations, why leading with energy instead of matching it gives you clarity faster, and how visualizing your future like it's already a memory can rewire your mindset. We also discuss making trust your default, using regret as a compass, and the simple but life-changing art of listening to yourself — then speaking to yourself with intention. This episode is packed with fresh perspectives, practical tools, and heart-opening AHA's to help you stop settling and start living from your fullest, truest self.

They run companies, manage households, juggle a million responsibilities—and still find themselves accepting the bare minimum in love. Why? In this Summer of Love kickoff, Hilary calls out the quiet epidemic of high-achieving women settling for less in their relationships. From doing all the emotional labor to accepting the bare minimum in return, Hilary spells out what “crumbs” really look like, and why so many women accept them without even realizing it. The truth? Starving women eat crumbs. If you've spent a lifetime feeling emotionally underfed, even the smallest scrap of affection can feel like a meal. But that won't get you the love you want, and it's not your fault. The fix? Stop looking outward, and start filling yourself up from within. If you're ready to quit the chase and start receiving real love, this episode is your wake-up call.

In today's episode, I sit down with Laura Ann Lamando, founder and CEO of FanGirl Fashionista, to talk about the real gap in sports merchandise for women and why no one's addressed it until now. Laura shares how years of industry inertia and bulk-buying habits have kept women sidelined from gear that actually fits, feels good, and reflects their fandom. We get into the licensing hurdles, manufacturing timelines, and what it takes to break through in a space most fashion brands won't touch. We also unpack why women speaking up, buying less, and asking for what they actually want could be the key to a more inclusive and profitable future in sports.

Today, I'm diving into a topic that might ruffle a few feathers, but it's one I believe every woman entrepreneur, especially those in health and wellness, needs to hear. If you're a coach, consultant, or practitioner who's been conditioned to undervalue your expertise or struggle with money mindset, this episode is your wake-up call.

Start Your Transformation Now What would your life look like if you knew—without a doubt—that you were unstoppable? In part four of the Zero Limit Person series, Jim Fortin explores the final core identity in the series: “I Am Unstoppable Power.” Building on the previous episodes that unpacked “I Am Unlimited Source,” “I Am a Supreme Being,” and “I Am Infinite Abundance,” this powerful conclusion helps listeners strip away ego, doubt, and conditioning to reclaim their inherent, unlimited power. Jim challenges the identity most people live from—one rooted in limitation, lack, and unworthiness—and replaces it with the truth of who we really are: reflections of infinite source. He dives into how our early social conditioning, false beliefs about worth, and ego attachments stop us from recognizing our true identity. Through examples, reflections, and practical insights, Jim reveals how unstoppable power isn't something to achieve; it's something to remember, feel, and live from. If you're ready to stop working from desperation and start aligning with the truth of who you are, this episode is your call to return to your natural state—limitless, powerful, and free. What You'll Discover in This Episode: The Real Reason You Feel “Stuck” (02:20) Jim breaks down how ego and early social conditioning bury our awareness of our true, unstoppable power. Why “Wanting” Blocks Manifestation (09:30) Desire comes from lack. Jim explains why recognizing your power is the key to manifesting what you want. How to Begin Living from Your True Power (14:50) It's not about achieving more—it's about remembering that the power already lives in you. Stop Settling and Start Aligning (19:40) Jim poses the question: If you knew you were unstoppable, would you still settle for less in life? Rewriting Your Identity Through Feeling (26:30) Learn how feeling the truth of your power—not just thinking it—is what rewires your internal state. The Morning Practice That Changes Everything (31:50) Jim shares a 5-minute daily practice to anchor your awareness in your identity as unstoppable power. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway You don't have to become unstoppable power—you already are. You are a reflection of source, of divine intelligence, of the same force that governs the universe. That means being unstoppable isn't extraordinary—it's natural. But it requires remembering. Strip away the layers of ego, doubt, and history that tell you otherwise. Sit with the truth: I am unstoppable power. Feel it. Live it. And let it guide every choice, every action, and every manifestation from this day forward.

Hey y'all
Are you quietly tolerating things that are draining your energy? In this episode, Lori and I dive into what it really means to unapologetically raise your standards — in your home, relationships, and your business. We talk about why resentment builds when you stay quiet, how setting clear expectations actually strengthens your team, and why you owe it to yourself and the people around you to say what you want. We also share the story behind Lori's $1,000 competition bikini, how it helped her land magazine covers, and how even the smallest standards reflect what you're willing to receive in life. HIGHLIGHTS What happens when you settle for “good enough”. Why Lori bought a $1,000 bikini. What my old party crew said when I tried to grow. How to choose the environment that matches your dream.

On this week's episode, we're diving into the art of personal evolution and how to thrive as both a woman in business and a mother. I know, it's not easy to juggle everything, but trust me when I say it's time to stop pretending we can perfectly "balance" it all. Instead, we're embracing the power of presence and redefining what success really looks like. I'll share my non-negotiables for success, the must-have habits that help me show up for both my family and my dreams, and why setting audacious goals is the secret sauce to pushing past any limitations. If you're a mom, it's only one part of who you are, and in this episode, I'm challenging you to tap into your full potential — beyond the “mom role” and into the greatness you're meant for. But here's the kicker: it's not just about achieving more or doing it all. It's about setting clear priorities, giving yourself the permission to challenge your limits, and embracing the fact that life doesn't need to be perfectly balanced to be extraordinary. I'll walk you through how to prioritize what truly matters, set big goals that excite you, and finally ditch the guilt that comes with trying to do it all. If you're ready to stop holding yourself back and step into your greatness, hit play now — because you don't want to miss this episode. Let's shake up the way we approach life and motherhood and start thriving unapologetically. Let's do this!

In this powerful episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey dive deep into the deceptive allure of the comfort zone and explore how it might be quietly crushing your dreams. Together, they unpack the emotional and psychological patterns that keep us stuck in safe, familiar spaces—at the cost of real growth and personal fulfillment. Using the vivid parable of the lobster—who must shed its shell to grow—Patrick draws a compelling parallel: just like the lobster, we only truly grow when we embrace discomfort. That discomfort might look like starting a business, having a tough conversation, facing rejection, or simply pushing beyond what's familiar. Steffany shares real-life coaching insights from high-performance athletes preparing for world championships, emphasizing how discomfort isn't something to avoid—but rather a necessary state that sharpens focus, fuels creativity, and unlocks peak performance. Together, they reflect on personal stories of navigating change, shedding old identities, and the emotional cost of clinging to comfort when it no longer serves us. This episode challenges listeners to examine where in their life they've settled—relationships, health, business, or personal development—and offers inspiring reminders that discomfort is not only natural but essential for growth. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, leader, or someone craving change, this episode will resonate deeply. Packed with raw reflections, laughter, and honest moments, Patrick and Steffany invite you to ask the hard question: Are you fighting to stay comfortable… or fighting to grow? Tune in and discover why getting uncomfortable might be the most important decision you make this year.

What if we're all chasing happiness when what we really need is something deeper? If you're tired of counting down the minutes or feeling your good vibes slip away as soon as the next stressor hits, this episode is for you. I recently soaked up the energy of Rio's Carnaval—where music, movement, and a massive sense of shared purpose create one giant “dopamine menu” of fun—and it made me realize how much we overlook genuine joy. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down why a focus on joy can be the key to true fulfillment, rather than constantly hunting for those fleeting bursts of happiness. Here's a taste of what we'll explore: Why Joy Beats Happiness – Discover the difference between quick-fix emotional highs and a deeper sense of contentment that actually fuels your long-term well-being. Reframing Your Perspective – Learn how to shift your mindset, open up to new possibilities (Carnaval-style!), and find those spark moments in your everyday life. Owning Your Time (and Your Dopamine!) – Feeling “time-poor”? We'll talk about transforming your schedule into a personalized “dopamine menu” filled with purposeful actions that keep you energized and genuinely fulfilled.
