Are your relationship beliefs actually creating the connection you want—or quietly sabotaging it?

In this honest conversation, Sarah and I unpack the subtle, sneaky beliefs that shape how we show up in love—and often lead to frustration, resentment, and emotional burnout. These are the misconceptions we bought into for years, that quietly crept into our marriage, and that we had to challenge in order to grow individually and as a couple.

From the myth that your partner should “complete you,” to the belief that love means putting yourself last, we get into the raw truths behind what actually works in a healthy, passionate, and sustainable relationship.

Whether you’re single, married, dating, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you check the beliefs you're bringing into your relationships—and give you permission to create something far more real, powerful, and aligned.

What will you regret when your time is up?

In this confronting and thought-provoking episode, I explore the five most common regrets people share as they approach the end of their lives—insights captured by palliative care nurse Bronnie Ware after years of supporting individuals in their final days.

These reflections aren’t hypothetical or abstract. They are raw truths gathered from real people who were able to reflect on their lives with total clarity. And what they revealed is both sobering and inspiring: most of us are not living in alignment with what truly matters.

If you've ever felt like you're drifting through life, holding back from expressing your authentic self, or putting off joy and connection for “someday,” this conversation offers a powerful opportunity to reflect and recalibrate. It’s a reminder that we each have a choice—every single day—to live fully, love boldly, and honor the deepest parts of ourselves.

Let this be the moment that wakes you up to what’s possible, before it's too late.

How stressed out do you feel right now? Have you dealt with stress earlier today or this week?

We all experience stress, it's part of life. But not everybody relates to stress in the same way. You have your own go-to methods for dealing with your stress, and some are more effective than others.

Years ago it became a personal mission of mine to get on top of my stress and anxiety, and learn how to deal with it in more healthy ways. Drinking, smoking and pornography were not leading me down the path I wanted, and so I sought out other means of relating to the circumstances in my life.

In today's episode I'm sharing with you a massive breakthrough I had that led to me looking at stress in a whole new way. The "7 minutes" breakthrough as I like to call it, has helped me get back into my center when life's stressors have knocked me out of alignment. I'm sharing this with you today with the goal of inspiring you to take a harder look at your triggers and the things that stress you out in life, and to seek out true healing so you can experience the joy you truly desire.

What if the reason you keep breaking your commitments isn’t about willpower, but emotions?

This episode dives into how emotions like stress, frustration, and apathy quietly hijack your habits, your follow-through, and your sense of integrity. I’m sharing how a simple weekly fasting practice helped me see where I was letting feelings lead, and how often that meant letting myself down.

This isn’t about food. It’s about practicing emotional discipline. It’s about learning to show up even when you don’t feel like it.

You’ll walk away with personal insights, real-life examples, and a clear challenge: make one small commitment AND KEEP IT, no matter what your emotions say.

If you’re tired of breaking promises to yourself, let’s change that.

Ever feel like your life should feel amazing, but inside... you’re just stuck?

You’ve got the job, the family, the “success”—but confidence is shaky, motivation is MIA, and the truth is you’re scared you’re wasting your potential.

In this episode, I respond to a listener email from “Jim,” a man with a beautiful life on the outside and a gnawing feeling of being lost on the inside. If you’ve ever said: “I don’t know where to start,” or “I feel like I’m this close to something real but can’t seem to move”—this one is for you.

I walk you through the six principles I’ve personally used (and coached others through) to reconnect with clarity, rebuild trust with yourself, and actually start living the life you know you’re meant for.

No fluff. No hacks. Just truth, ownership, and a roadmap back to your power.

Who are you unconsciously giving permission to quit on themselves?

In this episode, I share a powerful story from a recent Play Camp where one small decision to avoid discomfort triggered a ripple effect of playing small. We unpack what it means to be a watcher—and how your fear (or your courage) directly impacts the greatness of others.

I also reflect on a personal moment where I bailed on a commitment—and how that moment shaped my relationship with leadership, alignment, and integrity.

If you've ever wondered why you shrink when you say you want to expand—or if you sense that people around you are following your lead even when you’re not proud of the example—you need to hear this one.

Because someone is always watching.
