  • 143: Learning how-to TRUST YOURSELF
    "The life you have lived doesn't have to be the only life you will ever live." — Viktor E. Frankl

    Thank you for being a part of this historic Catalyst mini-sode, where we are recording outdoors!

    In this mini-sode, surrounded by lake and birds, I share a glimpse into my year-long sabbatical and how I learned to trust myself and pivot in my career. I explain how working with children and teaching yoga to kids helped me reconnect with my inner voice and embrace mindful living.

  • 142: The importance of EMOTIONAL SAFETY
    "If you are not seen and heard as a child, then you spend your whole life trying to find that." — Oprah Winfrey

    In this mini-sode, I share my process of journaling and the difference between my first childhood journal to my second - a process of cultivating emotional safety within myself, by myself.

    Whether you're a parent, teacher, or simply someone healing from childhood emotional trauma, this conversation opens the door to creating emotional safety and offering a safe space for kids to fully express who they are. I share reflective journaling prompts, the truth behind vulnerable journaling, and why silence before safety is a pattern worth breaking.

  • 141: Navigating my life of TRANSITION
    "The only journey is the one within." — Rainer Maria Rilke

    We've been fed a lie: that happiness lies in the next achievement. But what if the in-between is where the true magic happens?

    In this mini-sode, I share my journey of navigating life transitions, from being born a month early to growing up between cultures, cities, and identities. I reflect on my lifelong practice of journaling for self-discovery, reconnecting with my inner child, and developing emotional resilience tools through the often messy, uncertain, but transformational in-between seasons of life.

  • 140: Leading From The In-Between - Season 4 Premiere
    "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” — Anaïs Nin

    The beginning of a new season, a new rhythm, and a new way of leading.

    This mini-sode is a love letter to anyone who’s been holding back their truth, waiting for perfect timing. Life is full of in-between moments, and the real magic happens when we learn to lead from within them.

    This is the beginning of my movement. It's time for the next generation to rise with resilience.

  • 139: Every ENDING is a NEW BEGINNING - Season 3 Finale
    "And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings." - Meister Eckhart

    Celebrating the transformations, changes, revelations, and growth we experienced over the last few months in this season finale segment. It was a big one!

    This mini-sode serves as a reminder of the importance of work-life harmony and the ways in which we can create balance between being and achieving in a world that is constantly asking for more of us. There is a lot of work to be done in shifting "cultural norms" and addressing burnout.

    We are entering a new season of change, and in this segment, I'm sharing all the ways things are shifting.

  • 138: BO&LO: Becoming your HEALTHIEST SELF
    Health is wealth.

    A common thread through this BO&LO series is the emphasis and focus on health.

    In last week's segment, we visualized our healthiest Self (tune in if you haven't already!) and today we'll be outlining the steps needed to become the healthiest version of our Self.

    Thank you so much for all of your thoughtful and kind feedback on my BO&LO Series so far! I can't wait to see where May takes us.

  • 137: BO&LO: Why your BURNOUT isn't essential
    We are human BEings, not human DOings.

    In this mini-sode, I invite you to introspect to recognize your own unique body/mind/soul cues, signalling when burn out is near.

    Let's get clear on what the healthiest version of yourself looks and feels like, and outline steps to make it a reality.

  • 136: BO&LO: Making the unconscious CONSCIOUS
    In the balance of life, we learn when to be flexible and when to be firm.

    How often do you take notice of the patterns in your life? In what ways are you committed to the "same old way" of doing things?

    In this mini-sode, I share how our subconscious mind (or Source/God/Spirit/intuition) can be guiding us toward new cycles and beginnings....without us even realizing it!

    When we make the unconscious conscious, magic happens. Let's get into it!

Her love for the culture is what fuels her dedication to amplifying the voices of people of color, making her podcast a beacon of diversity, inclusion, and empowerment.

  • 134: BO&LO: It's OK to let go - 3-step process for overcoming resistance
    Do what's best for you because only you know yourSelf best.

    I am riding the waves of change and transition, as told through this BO&LO (Burnt-out and Laid Off) series on my podcast.

    After 2 weeks off from podcasting and creating, I embodied the lesson: it's OK to let go. Trust in your Self and the support systems you've created to allow yourself space.

    I share a 3-step process to overcome resistance in this mini-sode.
