June 04, 2024Ep 74: The Flow State
When’s the last time you were in a state of flow? How would you describe it? How did it feel? When we get a taste of that divine sense of ease, we tend to try to re-create it and reverse engineer our actions leading up to the flow. Interestingly enough, attempts at controlling and overanalyzing work against flow, like trying to swim against the current. In this episode, we discuss nuances of the flow state and our relationship to it.
Being present without forcing presence
Trying to duplicate the flow state
Letting go of control increases the possibility of flow
Flow and alignment
Overthinking leads to worry and expectations
Connecting to what lights you up
Inspiration starts from within

May 28, 2024Ep 73: Embracing Change
Change can be challenging and exciting. Regardless, change will continue to happen and much of it is out of our control. Rather than resist change, we can choose to embrace it. Easier said than done of course. Understanding our fears, listening to our intuition, and practicing the courage to show up in alignment with our true selves are critical to embracing change. In this episode, we discuss our thoughts about change and recent challenges.
Disempowered vs. empowered relationship to change
Things out of our control
Change rocks our identity
My most recent biggest change
Cultivating a sense of home within
Non-transactional way of being
Slowing down
Intuition leading us through change
Intentional practice in responding to change
Embracing change for what?

May 21, 2024Ep 72: The Comfort Zone
The comfort zone is dynamic and constantly changing. Our awareness of the edge and intention to push the edge outward is critical for growth. Pushing the edge creates stress on our minds and bodies. Therefore, doing so with a big purpose and deep meaning would be valuable to transmute the stress into further inspiration. The compounding of stress for little purpose is unsustainable and unfavorable. In this episode, we explore nuances of the comfort zone.
Stepping into and out of the comfort zone
It takes time to create a comfort zone
The comfort zone is constantly changing
Awareness of our progress
Knowing the edge
Bigger purpose naturally pushes us out of our comfort zone
Comparison traps aren’t sustainable
Reflecting on ourselves is key

May 14, 2024Ep 71: Start With Forgiveness
Forgiveness may sound simple, but it’s not easy. And it requires a tremendous range of self-awareness and deep connection to the heart. Self-forgiveness may be the access point to the peace, joy, fulfillment, creativity, and purpose we are all searching for. Therefore, it may be one of the most powerful practices for humans. Said this way, it doesn’t sound so simple anymore.
Forgive and forget?
Different levels of forgiveness
Awareness of attachment to the past
Head vs. heart
Forgiving self before others
Forgiveness is a process
Expanding awareness around feelings of resentment, shame, and guilt
Curiosity with internal triggers and judgment

May 07, 2024Ep 70: Reframing Failure
We typically have a strong aversion to identifying as a failure. Many of us learned to fear failure at an early age because it meant an ocean of disempowering beliefs about ourselves. The word fail is laced with judgment and shame. And this has been passed down for generations. But what if we recreated our relationship to failure? How would our way of being shift? How much more could we grow? In this episode, we discuss nuances surrounding failure.
Disempowering relationship to failure
Failure defined early on including through public education
Failing vs. being a failure
Patience and failure
Reframing relationship to words
Pivoting
Learning to accept paradox as a broader reframe

April 23, 2024Ep 68: What’s The Vulnerable Support You Need?
How practiced are you at asking for support? How clear are you about the support you actually need? Many of us are conditioned to be good at giving help and offering it but not at receiving help or asking for it. Offering to give help and asking to receive help are doorways to deeper connection and intimacy. However, an overall imbalance in giving and receiving support can create depletion and stagnation of energy. Further, getting supported on a surface level is entirely different from on a deeper vulnerable level.
Vulnerability in asking for support
Being clear on what you need
Costs of not being supported
From fully supported in the womb to not needing full support afterwards
Shame and support
Expectations and independence
Self-judgment and judgment from others
Saying “Yes” to support
Simply sharing what you’re up to can invite support
