In this episode, I invite you to join me on a journey of remembering—reconnecting with the habits, rituals, and practices that once brought us joy, wellness, and alignment, but may have quietly slipped out of our lives. I share personal stories and practical strategies to help you intentionally bring these nourishing elements back into your daily routine, and I explore the powerful concept of “remembering your future” by envisioning the person you want to become. Plus, I offer a simple journaling exercise to help you reflect on what you want to reclaim from your past, what makes you feel alive, and which version of yourself you want to carry forward. Tune in for your weekly dose of inspiration and actionable wisdom to help you create a life that invites bliss to find you!

Hey Bliss'ners! Today, I share a story about how a spontaneous pool party became an unexpected spark of bliss—and how it perfectly aligned with my long-held vision of cultural connection and family joy. I walk you through how setting intentions and letting go of rigid expectations can open the door to profound enjoyment, even when life doesn’t go exactly as planned. This July, our theme is “Enjoy,” and I invite you to join me in practicing the powerful skill of catching those fleeting, magical moments that align with the life you're intentionally creating.

In this episode of Bliss'n Up, I take you through my end-of-month ritual using the “Live With Intention” framework—a simple yet powerful way to reflect, reset, and realign. I share what energized me in June (hello, beach days and group coaching breakthroughs), what drained me (that impossible puzzle!), and the surprising life lesson I learned during a rainy Thursday run. I also reveal July’s theme—Enjoy—and invite you to embrace the joyful rhythm of mid-summer. If you’ve been moving too fast to notice what’s working (or not), this episode is your gentle nudge to pause, reflect, and intentionally design the next chapter.

I'm excited to share that we're finally on video!!! Today you not only get to hear but you get to see me share one of the most transformative practices in my life: romanticizing the everyday. I explain why it’s so important to intentionally create and savor joyful moments, making them “sticky” in our memories, rather than letting only the hard times linger. I share personal stories—from special traditions with my kids and the legacy of expected surprises from my father, to how I infuse romance into my surroundings and daily routines. I also offer practical tips on how you can start naming your moments, creating rituals, and elevating the ordinary to extraordinary, so you can design a life that sparks bliss.

In this episode of Bliss’n Up, I share a behind-the-scenes story of my latest podcasting mishap—my first attempt at recording both video and audio ended with a dead camera and, to my horror, a silent audio file! After a much-needed run and a reminder from my mentor Bruce Turkel that you’re not a pro until you’ve bombed, I decided to chalk it up as a rite of passage on my journey to becoming a professional podcaster. I then invite you to join me in my monthly “Live With Intention” ritual, reflecting on May’s theme of Mindfulness and how it helped me savor even the busiest moments. I open up about the areas where I slipped into autopilot (hello, messy house!) and share a fun story about getting my kids involved in summer chores. Looking ahead, I reveal our new theme for June: “Energized June”—a call to nurture our energy, let go of what drains us, and step boldly into the summer. I also introduce my upcoming group coaching program, DARE, and encourage you to join if you’re ready to spark new energy in your life. As always, I invite you to reflect, set your own intention, and co-create this journey with me.

In this episode, I open up about my personal journey with nutrition, reflecting on how easy it is to slip into autopilot with our habits—especially around food. I share the story of how my upbringing shaped my relationship with food, the wake-up call I received when my father battled cancer, and how that led me to radically change my lifestyle. I talk about the pendulum swing from extreme healthy eating to finding balance, and how, recently, I realized I’d been coasting on autopilot again. I discuss the importance of mindfulness, noticing when we’re out of alignment, and taking conscious, aligned action to support our wellness goals. I also invite you to join my upcoming master class on moving from autopilot to aligned action in any area of your life.

Hey Blissiners! In this episode, I get real about the chaos of May and how the collective theme of mindfulness is more important than ever. I share how even I’ve been feeling the overwhelm—lethargic, foggy, and tempted to fast-forward through this messy, transitional month. I talk about the importance of not drifting through life and missing the magic of the everyday, inspired by a powerful affirmation from my Aligned Action Masterclass: “My life works well when…” I open up about the habits that have fallen off for me, and how noticing what’s not working is the first step to nurturing what does. I also share the practical hacks that are helping me stay present: leaning into affirmations, seeking support through peer coaching, and using time blocking to clear mental clutter and make space for spontaneous joy. Plus, I reflect on how mindfulness is really about noticing, appreciating, and enjoying what is, rather than what should be. If you’re feeling the May madness too, tune in for some honest conversation and actionable tips to help you reclaim your moments and nurture a more mindful, intentional life.
