#323: Are you waiting for someone to magically transform into the person you need them to be?

In this episode, I break down what relationship magical realism is, how it manifests in our thoughts and behaviors, and the real cost of staying in these fantasies. I share practical steps to recognize when you're caught in this pattern and how to start seeing relationships for what they truly are – not just what you wish they could be.

Ever find yourself holding space you didn’t mean to offer... or unloading your feelings without being sure the other person’s actually available?

Conversational Consent Guide

If you keep second-guessing yourself, people-pleasing on autopilot, or struggling with chronic indecision — you’re not broken. But your nervous system might think that playing small is what keeps you safe.

In my upcoming live workshop, Why You’re Stuck, we’ll explore the real, nervous-system-based reasons why willpower hasn't been enough to get you unstuck — and how to finally change that. It’s happening Wednesday, May 7 at 8PM ET on Zoom, and it’s the first in a 4-part series.

#322: Are you stuck in a relationship where every disagreement turns into an emotional marathon? Where the same wounds keep getting ripped open no matter how hard you try to heal them? 

When we fight with our partners, family members, or friends, what's really happening goes far beyond the words being exchanged.

In this week's episode, I dive into the four nervous system responses that show up during conflict—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and how each one shapes your reactions in ways you might not even realize.

#321: Have you been living from the neck up?

Disembodiment doesn't happen by accident. Many of us learned early that being fully present in our bodies wasn't safe. And in a world that rewards overthinking and overfunctioning, checking out of your body can feel like the only way to survive.

In this week's episode, I dive into the concept of embodiment - what it really means beyond the wellness buzzword, and why it's the missing piece in your personal growth journey.

#320: Have you noticed how "wellness" has become more about expensive supplements and exclusive retreats than actual healing?

It's time we had an honest conversation about how the wellness industry has been hijacked by capitalism and privilege, leaving behind the very people who need healing most.

In this week's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the wellness industrial complex and offering a different vision - one that's rooted in accessibility, community care, and genuine healing.

#319: Have you ever felt like you're constantly trying to get everything "right"?

Like you're stuck in an endless cycle of seeking validation from others, while your own voice gets smaller and smaller?

Today, I want to share a powerful story that might feel familiar.

Dr. Ashley Albers, a physician who went through my Anchored program, once couldn't even speak during coaching sessions. Her body's message was clear: "We are not safe."

But through somatic work and dedicated practice, she transformed that relationship with herself and her body, and she’s telling us about it in this week’s episode.

#318: Have you ever caught yourself dismissing someone's feelings with phrases like "at least..." or "it could be worse"?

We often do this with the best intentions - trying to help, trying to fix, trying to make things better. But what if these well-meaning responses are actually creating emotional distance in our relationships?

In today's episode, I dive into why we struggle to let others have their feelings and how to reclaim emotional space - both for ourselves and those we love.

#317: If you're the person everyone comes to with their problems, or if you find yourself exhausted from managing others' emotional states, this week's episode is for you.

Here's the truth: Your tendency to take on others' emotions isn't just a personal quirk – it's deeply rooted in systems of oppression and societal conditioning that have taught us to prioritize others' feelings over our own.
