  • 88-Attract The ONE: Chapter 1

    This week, we dive into Chapter 1 of “Attract the ONE”, and it’s a big one. After my divorce, I was convinced something was wrong with me. Like I was wired differently. Like I was missing the "relationship chip" everyone else seemed to have. I stayed busy, focused on my kids, but deep down, I was stuck in old beliefs that told me I wasn’t enough, that love just wasn’t in the cards for me.

    In this chapter, I talk about the years I spent believing I was damaged goods, the experiences that shaped that belief, and the moment I realized none of it was actually true. I share what it was really like raising my kids alone, the highs and lows, the funny moments, and the heartbreaks. I also take a hard look at the stories we tell ourselves about love and self-worth, and how they shape the relationships we attract.

    If you’ve ever wondered why love feels so out of reach or felt frustrated with where you are, this chapter is for you. Grab a notebook, get comfortable, and let’s start breaking down the lies we tell ourselves so you can finally attract the love you deserve.

  • 87-Attract The ONE: Preface

    This week, I’m doing something different. I’m starting a new series reading my book Attract the ONE. You can get a free copy of the printed book (just pay for shipping) on my website, but because so many people prefer to listen to books, I wanted to make the audiobook free! I’ll be releasing one chapter a week, so the entire audiobook will be available for free forever! 

    This week I read the preface. If you’ve ever felt like love keeps passing you by, if you’ve been stuck in dating cycles that leave you disappointed, or if you’re just about ready to give up on finding something real, I get it.

    I went through divorce, bankruptcy, foreclosure, and repo all in one year! Then, I spent years attracting men who didn’t love me, didn’t want what I wanted and weren’t good for me. But everything changed when I stopped “looking” for love and started working on myself. In this episode, I share some of the shifts I made, the beliefs I realized I needed to release, and how I finally attracted the kind of love I always wanted (but never thought was possible).

    If you’re tired of settling, maybe it’s time to start believing that real love is possible. Real love with a partner who truly sees you, values you, and cherishes you is not only possible, but it can be true for YOU! 

    Grab a notebook, tune in, and let’s do this together!

  • 86-Love Heals All Wounds With Sherry Foutz

    In this emotional episode, I sit down with my Aunt Sherry to hear her incredible journey from a childhood marked by uncertainty, adoption, and resilience, to a life filled with love, family, and healing.

    Sherry was adopted in 1960 by my grandparents, but her story starts long before that. She shares raw, heartfelt memories of growing up in a small trailer, the painful separation from her sister, and the moment she realized what "adoption" really meant. Through it all, she found strength in the family who chose her, the bonds she refused to let go of, and the deep, lasting love of a mother she once thought had left her behind.

    Aunt Sherry’s story is an immaculate example of the resilience of the human heart, the way we carry our past with us, and how love can transcend even the hardest moments. It's about what it means to belong.

    Bring tissues, because we laughed and we cried over these stories. Listen now and let me know what resonates with you!

  • 85-Creating Peace In Your Relationship Part 2 With Merianne Drew

    This week, I had the real pleasure of sitting down for a part 2 with relationship coach Merianne Drew! 

    In this episode, we answer your biggest questions about dating, marriage, emotional connection, and what it really means to love someone (and yourself).

    We talk about the good, the messy, and the often overlooked parts of relationships. How do you recognize if someone is truly available for a relationship? Can dating apps help or hurt? And what’s the role of emotional regulation in handling conflict? Merianne breaks it all down with her insight. 

    This isn’t focused on finding “the one,” but rather learning to grow, to be honest about your needs, and to approach love from a place of connection instead of fear. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to create a lasting, fulfilling relationship, you won’t want to miss this one!

  • 82-The Spiritual Side of Healing With Jennifer Dickenson

    I’m sitting down again with Jennifer Dickenson to talk more about the spiritual side of her incredible healing journey.

Her story is a such powerful reminder of how much we can gain by being open to new perspectives and allowing space for growth and healing!

  • 81-Empower YOURSELF Through Menopause Part 2 With Dr. Linda Marquez Goodine

    I’m so excited to bring you part two of my conversation with Dr. Linda Marquez Goodine on the Create Today Podcast! You all sent in to many great questions about menopause, hormones, and overall wellness that we just had to keep the conversation going. 

    We discussed answers for these questions: 

    Should you bring your estradiol levels back to where they were in your 20s and 30s? If you choose bioidentical hormones, how long should you stay on them? What is the root cause of autoimmune diseases? What are the top five things you can do (or avoid) to lose belly fat, improve sleep, and stop being so annoyed by people?

    We also talked about why sleep is such a game-changer, whether black cohosh actually works, and how adaptogens might be your new best friend. 

    In between answering questions, we also talk about other crucial easy ways to maintain a healthy and vibrant life! 

    This conversation is packed with so many powerful insights that will leave you ready to walk away feeling inspired and ready to take action!

  • 80-Balance Your Hormones With Nutrition With Renata Trebing

    This week on the Create Today Podcast, I sat down with Renata Trebing, who’s an intuitive nutrition coach helping women navigate hormonal health and perimenopause. She is an expert in helping women thrive through every phase of their cycle! She shared super helpful information and the importance of understanding your body’s needs. 

    We talked about specific ways to balance hormones through nutrition! Renata shared how food choices can impact hormonal health in powerful ways. Cruciferous vegetables to eliminate excess estrogen, omega-3s to fight inflammation, and even something as simple as getting enough fiber to keep your gut (and hormones) happy!

    Thanks for listening & creating the life you love, one day at a time. See you next week!
