A recent message from a woman who was making her DSL list made me so excited, because it's never the wrong time of year to make yours! She asked me if there is anything I find myself repeating year after year, and I wanted to share that answer with all of you. From the things I repeat, to the reasons things change, consider this an unofficial update on my DSL, and an official invite to get started on yours today.

AP 591: My DSL Repeats || Growth Spurt

In this candid coaching call with Kate, a stay-at-home mom of two young children, we unravel the layers of perfectionism in parenthood and how we can treat ourselves with self-compassion. 
Kate shares her experiences of navigating the challenges of motherhood amidst major life transitions, including a cross-country move and the transition from working to full-time parenting. I encourage Kate to level with herself about her circumstances and redefine what it means to be a good mom within the context of her reality.
Through practical exercises and reframing techniques, Kate recognizes that being a good mom doesn't mean being perfect—it means showing up with love, kindness, and a willingness to learn and grow.

AP 589: What’s your #1 habit? || Growth Spurt

It's okay, and normal, that our romantic relationships change over time. What can be challenging is when we feel disconnected from the change
Emily Nagoski, award-winning author and sex educator, and I discuss the common myths we’re all conditioned to carry around longterm committed relationships, the truth about those myths, and how we can, against all the odds thrown at us, learn to come back to each other, together.
Emily's message of compassion, authenticity, and curiosity underscores the profound significance of prioritizing pleasure and communication in our relationships. Through candid conversations and a willingness to challenge societal norms, she reminds us that we hold the keys to unlocking real intimacy and joy in our lives.

AP 588: How Couples Can Create Strong Sexual Connections in their Long-Term Relationships || with Emily Nagoski

This monthly series features an episode sharing my recent highs and lows, how my habits are going, a Do Something List update, plus what I'm loving lately and my commitments for the upcoming month. I hope this glimpse into my life, my family, my work, and my own self development encourages you in your own journey.
Around here the goal is never perfection, just to keep trying, even if in very simple ways. I think you'll see that with all of the big changes going on for me, taking the smallest of steps has helped to keep me afloat and feeling like myself. As always, I encourage you to get messy, too!
