What if we aren’t supposed to figure it all out?

When life gets hard, our minds want answers, certainty and control. In this episode, I’m sharing what’s been helping me navigate the things I can’t fix or fully understand—and how writing can help us find solid ground and the next step forward. 

Mentioned in this episode:
Dr. Lee Warren’s podcast, The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast - conversations about transforming your mind and finding hope through neuroscience and faith.

It’s easy to be moving all day long and still lose sight of where you’re actually going.

Recently, I took two rooms full of women through a simple writing exercise, and what surfaced surprised me.

We are all juggling lots of things just like you. But when we stepped out of the noise and lifted our heads, what mattered most became incredibly clear.

In this episode, I’m sharing the same three writing prompts with you.

Because real momentum isn’t about doing more.

It’s about making sure the motions you are making are leading to the life you want to be living.

Grab your journal, press play, and write with me.

Take time to step away from your life, get a fresh perspective, and experience writing as a tool for leading your life, join me for an upcoming When Life Gets Crazy journal writing experience at DifferentlyCo.com.

If your brain is always going, this one is for you.

In this short episode, I’m sharing and or reminding you of one of the simplest tools I know for quieting the mental noise, getting perspective, and seeing clearly again.

After 20+ years of watching what happens when people slow down long enough to write, I believe this more than ever: learning to lead your own mind is foundational to living and leading well.

I’ll give you a simple five-minute practice you can try today and an invitation to come experience it with me.

We're all playing a game in life, whether we realize it or not.

In this conversation, I sit down with executive coach and good friend Bob Parsons to explore the shift from living in survival mode to living with intention. Together they talk about the stories that once shaped their lives, the games they're choosing to play today, and how slowing down, serving others, and aligning with God's design has changed everything.

If you've been feeling stuck on autopilot or wondering if there's another way to live, this conversation will leave you with fresh perspective and a question worth carrying into your week:

What game are you playing?

When was the last time you made a bucket list for your business... not based on goals, revenue, or productivity, but on the kind of life you want to be living?

In this short episode, Carla shares a simple exercise from a recent mastermind to help you reconnect with what lights you up before the rest of the year slips away. Grab your journal, answer five reflective questions, and create a six-month bucket list that brings more intention, adventure, and aliveness into your work and your life.

Your business isn't just something you're building.

It's something you're living.

Have you ever let one uncomfortable experience convince you that you didn't belong, weren't capable, or should stop trying?

In the previous episode "Standing on the Sidelines", I shared the story of a networking luncheon where my old survival story nearly convinced me never to go back.

In this follow-up episode, I share what happened when I returned with a different mindset, a clear intention, and a willingness to show up differently.

The room hadn't changed.

The people hadn't changed.

But my experience changed completely.

If you've ever struggled with overthinking, self-doubt, or feeling stuck inside an old story, this episode is a reminder that you have more agency than you realize. Sometimes a simple shift in perspective can open the door to an entirely new experience.

Grab your notebook, and let's explore what it looks like to stop letting old stories dictate your future and begin writing a new one.

Enjoy!

Have you ever left a room convinced you didn't belong, only to realize later that the real barrier wasn't the room at all?

In this episode, I share about a recent event, an hour-long drive home, and the old story that almost kept me from going back. 

Let's explore what it looks like to stop standing on the sidelines of our own lives, challenge the stories that keep us playing small, and get in the game of our life.

Enjoy!
