Send Cathy a text:)Ready for a fresh start? After more than 260 episodes and navigating through some deeply personal caregiving seasons, I've taken a much-needed pause to reimagine what this podcast can be for you. Now I'm back with renewed energy and a powerful focus: your wellbeing as a caregiver.Season One, "What's in Your Cup," is entirely about you—your health, identity, energy, and emotional wellbeing. Because here's the truth that often gets overlooked: caregiving is not just about what you give; it's about how you refill, protect, and care for your own cup. As Emma Hemming Willis wisely notes in her book "The Unexpected Journey, "Caregiving asks everything of us, yet somehow we must find ways to keep something for ourselves." When nearly 60% of caregivers report their health worsening due to caregiving responsibilities, this conversation isn't just important—it's essential.Every Tuesday from October 7th through December 8th, 2025, you'll receive six core episodes filled with real talk, self-discovery tools, and practical strategies, plus bonus content including mini pep talks and journaling prompts between episodes. We'll kick off with "Refilled and Reimagined: What's in Your Cup Today," setting the foundation for your journey back to yourself. Whether you're new here or have been listening since day one, this season is your invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what makes you whole. Because when you show up as your best self, you become a stronger caregiver, advocate, and healthier human being. Mark your calendar, grab your favorite drink, and let's rediscover what belongs in your cup—together.Support the show
Today on Your Cup of Joy, I'm welcoming back my dear friend, Marissa Teeter, executive coach, business advisor, and former senior wealth executive, for her second time on the show. Our last conversation was so rich that I knew we had to do it again, and this time we're diving deep into a topic that so many of us avoid: money.I'll be the first to admit that finances have always felt a little uncomfortable for me, and maybe you feel the same way. But in this episode, Marissa makes the topic approachable, empowering, and inspiring. We talk about why money is still such a taboo subject, how women can start building healthier relationships with it, and why open conversations are the key to creating more freedom and opportunity in our lives. Marissa shares practical advice on budgeting, saving, and negotiating, and she reminds us that financial well-being isn't just about investing, it's about aligning money with your values, relationships, and goals. We also dive into how we can model better money habits for our kids, the importance of generosity, and the power of women supporting women by sharing their financial experiences openly. Money touches every part of our lives and the more we talk about it, the more confident we all become. Please leave a review and pass this episode along to someone in your circle so we can keep building a community of women who lead with openness and confidence.Connect with Marissa:Website: https://www.marissateeter.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/marissa.m.teeterPodcast: https://www.instagram.com/teetertalksCheck out Marissa's previous episode on the podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2363173/episodes/16032671Ariana's Links:Website Instagram: @ArianaJoyChristie @YourCupofJoyPodcastTikTok: @ArianaChristie
The start of September always feels like a shift, and this year it's marked by big changes as I notice my kids step into new stages of independence. It's a mix of emotions, and today I'm reflecting on the start of this new season, from back-to-school routines, the surprising ways community has been showing up in my life, and the little rituals that remind me to keep filling my own cup, too. I share stories of our first real bus rides, the little but impactful ways neighbours have become friends, and how something as simple as baking with another mom turned into a joyful new ritual. I also dive into the gentle balance of routines, why they matter, how they've reshaped my days, and how they've given me space to rediscover the things I love doing and want to do more of. Think of this episode as your seasonal check-in, a reminder to slow down and notice the small, precious moments that often get lost in the chaos. Like me, you might find yourself needing the permission to step back and ask: what truly brings me joy and how can I choose more of it? Thank you so much for tuning in today. If this episode encouraged you, it would mean so much if you rated, reviewed, and subscribed to Your Cup of Joy. Share it with someone who's also in the back-to-school season, and come connect with me on Instagram. I would love to hear how you're filling your cup right now. Until next time!

Motherhood, career, and life often come with a thousand ‘shoulds.' But beneath all those layers of expectation is the quiet truth of what really drives us, and when we honour it, everything begins to change. On today's episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm sitting down with the incredible Ali Dunn: leadership coach, writer, and Enneagram expert. Ali's journey from a high-powered career in sales to becoming a coach is full of truth, vulnerability, and wisdom, and the insights she shares about motivation, values, and self-awareness will leave you questioning how you show up in your own life.We explore the world of the Enneagram, not just as a personality test, but as a lens to understand what drives us beneath the surface. Ali unpacks how discovering our type can transform the way we lead, parent, and even love. We also talk openly about the realities of motherhood, the tension between expectations and personal truth, and how easy it is to lose ourselves in the “shoulds” of life. Through the lens of the Enneagram and her own lived experience, Ali shows us what it looks like to question the roles we've been handed, honour the values that really matter, and build a life that feels true. If this conversation touched your heart the way it touched mine, I'd love for you to share it with a friend who needs to hear it today. And if you haven't already, please take a moment to rate, review, and subscribe to Your Cup of Joy, it means the world and helps this podcast reach more people who need these stories.

Clutter isn't just physical, it's emotional. In today's episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by Britt Gaudio, professional organizer, decluttering coach, and the heart behind Well Nested Living, to explore what it really means to create a home that supports your nervous system, not just your to-do list. Get ready for a chat that goes far beyond tidying up. If your home has been feeling more overwhelming than grounding, this conversation will ease the pressure and remind you that the goal isn't perfection, it's creating a space that feels safe and supportive.Britt shares how burnout led her from the corporate world to entrepreneurship, and why supporting busy parents through clutter is about so much more than organization: it's about reclaiming peace, energy, and presence in your life. We talked about what clutter actually costs us, how overstimulation shows up in motherhood, and why a “perfectly tidy” home might not be the goal we truly need.Together, we explore how to let go of the emotional baggage tied to our belongings, the magic of 15-minute resets, and why it's okay, and even beautiful, to ask for help. Britt reminds me (and I hope she reminds you, too) that our homes are meant to be lived in, that we don't have to chase someone else's aesthetic to feel good in our space, and that letting go of the physical often helps us begin a new emotional chapter, too.This episode is your gentle permission slip to slow down, declutter with love, and consider that calling in support is one of the most powerful acts of self-care we can offer ourselves.As always, if this conversation resonated with you, please share it with someone who you think needs it. I'd also love to connect and hear your thoughts over on Instagram @yourcupofjoypodcast. Let's keep rewriting the story of what motherhood, home, and support can look like!

In this episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by the incredible Abby McKenzie: lactation consultant, doula, childbirth educator, and sleep specialist. Abby was one of my own supporters during my postpartum journey, and I couldn't be more thrilled to bring her wisdom to this space. Together, we dive into the messy, beautiful, and often misunderstood world of breastfeeding, from the unseen layers of postpartum support to the emotional load that comes with it all.Abby shares how her early work as a lactation consultant revealed the deep need for holistic care, that breastfeeding isn't just about latch and supply, but about mental health, sleep, support systems, and personal values. We talk about what no one tells you about extended feeding, how breast milk adapts to your baby's changing needs, and why listening to your intuition matters more than any online advice or cultural expectation. She also opens up about her own recent experience becoming a mom, and how it's transformed the way she supports other mothers through simplifying plans, embracing rest, and trusting that growth (in babies and in life) is never linear.This conversation is for every mama who's ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice, doubted her decisions, or just needed to be reminded that she is doing enough. Abby's grounded, compassionate insights and belief in mother-led care will leave you feeling empowered and affirmed in your journey.If this episode spoke to you, I'd be so grateful if you shared it with another mom or mama-to-be in your life. And remember: your intuition is powerful, your experience is valid, and you were never meant to do this alone. Keep filling your cup, and I'll see you back here soon.Connect with Abby:Website: https://www.babyglo.ca/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/babyglo.lactation/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abby-mckenzie-966b64128/?originalSubdomain=caAriana's Links:Website Instagram: @ArianaJoyChristie @YourCupofJoyPodcastTikTok: @ArianaChristie

On this episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by my friend Alex Cunningham, content creator and the voice behind This Family Tree. Today, we're sitting down to have the kind of conversation that usually stays between close friends, but we're bringing it here, raw and unfiltered!Alex opens up about one of the most emotionally layered decisions a mother can face: whether or not to grow her family. We talk about what it's like when your heart says one thing, your body says another, and your relationships add even more voices to the conversation. Alex vulnerably shares her experience with the unspoken tensions of family planning including pregnancy complications, the mental gymnastics of reconciling dreams with reality, and how sometimes, no choice feels 100% right. We also talk about the evolution of adult friendships and how our circles have shifted over time. What make a friendship truly resilient? What happens when convenience fades and real life takes over? Alex shares what she values most now in her relationships, why she's no longer performing to keep connections alive, and how we both find comfort in the friends who can hold space, not keep score.This conversation with Alex is full of the things we don't say out loud often enough. It's a reminder that joy isn't a luxury, it's a lifeline. It's okay to change your mind, to take up space, and to honour what's true for you, even when it's complicated.If this episode filled your cup, I'd love for you to share it, leave a review, or send it to a friend who might need it. Until next time!

In this week's episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by Renee Reina: content creator, host of The Mom Room podcast, fellow co-host of Friend Of, and most importantly, one of my closest friends. Together, we dive into one of the most transformative and validating conversations I've had about motherhood. If you've ever felt like you were holding your entire household together with invisible strings and no one really noticed, this episode is a must-listen. We talk about what it means to be the “default parent”, the silent weight of being constantly “on,” the overstimulation that comes with never being alone, and the subtle dynamics that fall into place when no one is looking. Renee shares her own evolution, from early postpartum to now raising a school-aged child, and how her marriage shifted along the way. I share the raw realities of parenting twins, trying to “do it all,” and realizing I had taken on roles I never meant to keep.This isn't just a vent session. It's a space to reflect, to laugh, and most importantly, to feel seen. We explore what it takes to have hard conversations with our partners, how to shift the dynamic, and what it actually looks like to ask for help without guilt.If you're in the thick of things right now, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and clarity. Remember, it's not about finding the perfect balance, it's about finding a blend that works for you. So take this time for yourself to tune in and fill your cup, because you deserve it. If this episode resonated or hit home, send it to a fellow mom who could use a little joy today too.Connect with Renee:Instagram: @thereneereina / @themomroomTikTok: @thereneereinaListen to “The Mom Room”: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-mom-room/id1521655911Listen to “Friend Of”: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/friend-of/id1804716774Ariana's Links:Website Instagram: @ArianaJoyChristie @YourCupofJoyPodcastTikTok: @ArianaChristie
Today I'm doing something I don't often do on Your Cup Of Joy, recording solo! I'm opening up about something I've never fully shared before: how I found my way back to myself. For years, I believed that being a good mom meant putting myself last. That selflessness somehow made me better. But what I learned the hard way is that losing yourself in motherhood isn't noble,it's painful.I'm sharing what postpartum really looked like for me and how, in the midst of all the rage and anxiety, I lost sight of who I was outside of motherhood. When I finally took a good look in the mirror, I barely recognized the person staring back at me. That moment became a turning point and the start of an intentional journey to reclaim my joy.I'll be getting into the shifts and mindset changes that slowly brought me back and helped me move out of survival mode. I'll touch on how through movement, food, community and choice, I started filling my own cup—not just for me, but for the people I love most. This episode isn't a weight loss guide (although I will be discussing my weight loss), but it's a reminder that self-care isn't selfish. That joy doesn't arrive all at once, and that even when it feels impossible, you can begin again.If this episode resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Message me, share your story, or tell me what you're doing today to fill your own cup. If you've been listening to Your Cup of Joy and finding pieces of yourself in these stories, please take a moment to rate, review, and subscribe. It truly means so much.

What happens when a mother of two decides to follow her heart, take a risk, and build a business rooted in connection? In this episode of Your Cup of Joy, I sit down with Pauline Caballero—co-founder of Power Yoga Canada and Power Yoga Collective, author of Pivot: Change Isn't Coming, It's Here, and a woman who has built her life and business around community, discipline, and unapologetic authenticity. From painting studio walls before ever teaching a class, to leading an international yoga collective, Pauline shares how a desire for belonging sparked a movement.We talk about the tension between ambition and motherhood, the myth of balance, and the power of movement as medicine. Pauline opens up about moments of imposter syndrome, entrepreneurial failures, and the very real work of rebuilding her marriage after stepping away to stay true to herself. She shares the radical self-care practices that anchor her amidst chaos, and how building a business has been one breath, one mistake, and one bold step at a time.This conversation is an honest reminder that growth is messy, values matter more than the polish, and authenticity isn't a trend—it's a commitment.

In this heartfelt episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by the incredible Catalina Margulis: book coach, publishing consultant, entrepreneur, and now debut author of the novel Again, Only More Like You. Catalina is also a mother of four and someone who, like many of us, is navigating the tangled beauty of motherhood, self-discovery, and creative ambition all at once. Her new book explores the messy middle of life: two best friends, approaching 40, both wondering if it's too late to rewrite their stories. It's a story about falling apart and finding yourself again, with heart, humor, and hope. It's also one that Catalina wrote in the middle of her own transformation.Our conversation goes far beyond the book, delving into the real-life struggles that inspired it. We talk about the emotional terrain of raising kids while chasing creative dreams, the guilt that creeps in when you dare to prioritize yourself, and how Catalina found her footing by making peace with imperfection. She shares how small rituals—like morning writing sessions, movement, and prayer—became non-negotiables, not just for her sanity, but as a way to show her kids what it looks like to live with intention.For anyone wondering if it's too late to begin again, Catalina has a message for you: it's not. Our timing isn't wrong, and there's still room for the dreams we've buried under diapers, deadlines, or doubt.If your cup feels a little fuller after this episode, I'd so appreciate a rating, review, or share as it really supports the show.

In this week's episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm sitting down with personal finance mentor and founder of Ambitious Adulting, Liz Enriquez, for a grounded and empowering conversation about something that impacts every one of us: money.If you've ever felt ashamed, overwhelmed, or just totally lost when it comes to your finances, you're not alone. Liz and I explore the emotional side of money, how our childhood experiences, family dynamics, and scarcity mindsets quietly shape the way we save, spend, and invest. She shares her personal journey from anxious saver to confident investor, and how financial freedom doesn't have to mean sacrificing joy.We talk about what it really means to feel secure with money, how to begin with a simple financial audit, and the difference between deprivation and intentional spending. Liz also opens up about the importance of financial education for kids, and how those lessons begin with the way we speak about money at home. Plus, we unpack the “treat yourself” culture and how to find a rhythm that lets you enjoy your life while also building a stable future. Liz's approach is rooted in real life, no jargon or shame, just practical, actionable steps to help you take control of your finances with confidence and clarity.What I love most about this episode is the reminder that financial wellness isn't about perfection—it's about awareness, choice, and compassion. If money has ever felt like a weight on your shoulders, this one's going to feel like a breath of fresh air.If this episode gave you something to think about, smile at, or scribble down, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, or send it to a friend who's ready to build a healthier relationship with money.

☕ Life will always have its bumps, but what spills out of you when it does? In Episode 446 of the Dream Big Podcast, host Sophia Karpman dives into What's in Your Cup? How to Stay Kind When Life Shakes You!
What's In Your Cup? #RTTBROS #Nightlight "What's in Your Cup? The Truth Spills Out!"Bible Verse: "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh." — Luke 6:45 (KJV)Imagine this: You're holding a cup of coffee, and someone bumps into you, causing the coffee to spill everywhere. Now, why did you spill the coffee? Most would say, "Because someone bumped me!" But the real reason? You spilled coffee because coffee was in your cup. If it had been tea, you would have spilled tea.The truth is, when life shakes us—through stress, trials, or unexpected challenges—whatever is inside us will come out. We might appear patient, kind, and joyful when everything is going smoothly, but when we are rattled, the reality of our heart condition is exposed.So, what's in your cup? When pressures rise, do you overflow with bitterness, anger, and frustration? Or does your life spill out kindness, gratitude, and faith?The good news is that we get to choose what fills our cup. Just as we intentionally pour coffee or tea into our mugs, we must also be intentional about what we pour into our hearts. The Bible tells us in Philippians 4:8 to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, and lovely. When we fill ourselves with God's Word, prayer, gratitude, and love, those things will naturally spill out when life shakes us.Today, take a moment to reflect:Are you filling your heart with faith and positivity?Or are you unknowingly storing up resentment and negativity?Let's commit to filling our cups with joy, forgiveness, resilience, and love—so that when life shakes us, we spill the goodness of Christ everywhere we go!#WhatsInYourCup #FaithOverflow #SpillTheGood #FillUpWithJesusBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Welcome to Connections Church Online! Pastor Rob Byker joins us with a message from Psalm 16, titled “Taking Christ as Your Portion and Your Cup.” Sometimes evangelists sharing Christ on the street will cry out, "Have you taken Christ as your personal Savior?" It's an unsettling question and a blunt approach. And yet, it is also a key question every heart must wrestle with. But there is second question every Christian must ask, "Have I taken Christ as my Portion and my Cup?" That's the question we will explore this morning. David says in Psalm 16:5 "LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup". This means David ranks the LORD as his top joy and his great hope. David's choice inspires his worship, informs his service and secures his heart amid the troubles and threats he faces. Every Christian who takes Christ as their Portion and Cup will experience a similar blessing. Visit our website: https://myconnections.church/

In today's discussion, I want to revisit an earlier episode, Episode #45, titled "What's in Your Cup?" In that episode, I explored the idea that as we journey through our daily lives, we carry within us a multitude of emotions and experiences. Some of what's inside us is fragile or delicate, while others are joyful or satisfying. However, there are moments when the contents of our internal cup spill out, often triggered by life's unexpected challenges. This phenomenon often leads to the typical expression heard in grief: "I don't know why I'm crying." I believe it's important to revisit this timeless concept, especially as we approach spring and upcoming holidays like Mother's Day and Father's Day, which can amplify feelings of grief. Whether you're hearing this analogy for the first time or could use a reminder, join me as we explore "What's in Your Cup" once more and discuss strategies for navigating difficult days ahead and beyond.
