Hot flashes, brain fog, mood swings… sound familiar? If you’ve ever felt like menopause hijacked your body and left you wondering what the hell just happened (or concerned that it may in the years to come), you’re not alone. But as this week’s episode assures you, you’re definitely not powerless. I’m talking with Tamsen Fadal, author of How to Meno…

One small (but mighty) shift each day. Five days. Big ener…

Today's lesson is radical self-acceptance, how to stop fixing yourself, and finally come home to who you are. Why did I choose this as one of the 10 topics? In my nearly 20 years of coaching women, self-acceptance comes up again and again. It’s a pattern I see so often. If you're in a transformational period, doing deep work, chasing self-improveme…

Have you ever gotten to that place in your life where you're carrying so much…plates are spinning in the air and at the same time, somehow you seem to be juggling all of them. And then, one of them falls. Maybe you get an annoying email, maybe you have a minor inconvenience, or maybe someone cuts you off in traffic. Whatever it is, big or small, it…

Leaving people behind can be painful, but it’s often necessary when you’ve chosen growth, healing, and self-trust. There will be moments when you realize that not everyone will walk the path you’re on, and that’s okay. Even though it can feel like it, letting go doesn’t mean you’re too much; it simply means you’re stepping into deeper spaces that s…

When it comes to life, we’re all looking for various things that will ultimately lead to our fulfillment. But what I’ve come to realize is that at the end of the day, for most of us, it comes down to three things we’re all searching for: freedom, feeling alive, and wholeness. And here's the truth: they’re not “out there.” These experiences come fro…

I’m breaking down how I spent years approaching love from a place of fear, blaming past partners, blaming myself, and clinging to a story that had already been written. Even when I thought I’d moved on, parts of me were still holding on. Finding acceptance and trust wasn’t perfect or linear, but it changed everything. I’m sharing my full-circle jou…

Welcome to Lesson 4, where we explore the deeper meaning behind Coming Home to Yourself and challenge the idea that purpose, like love, success, and happiness, comes from outside of us. At (almost) 50, I've come to realize that our real purpose isn't about what we do, it's about who we become. In this episode, I’ll explore how culture and society s…

Surrender isn’t about giving up—it’s about letting go. In Lesson 3, we’re exploring the magic of surrender. What does it mean to surrender and what does it look like in personal growth as well as in relationships? Surrender is the deep trust in the unfolding of your path. Surrender in relationships isn’t about rolling over or giving up your needs—i…

Between the fires in Los Angeles, and the changes that are happening that our government has been pushing forward, current events have been enough to not only make our heads spin, but cause peak levels of anxiety. And boy do I feel you. I recorded a…
