- [MINDSET] E39. I’m Calling Bullsh*it on the idea of unshakeable confidence. Here’s what I’d like to see us focus on instead.
Holy sh*t! We did it!!!
We have officially completed 30 episodes in 30 days.
What an incredible feeling — I for sure doubted whether or not we’d make it happen at the beginning of the month and also knew it would be completely freakin’ epic to actually do it. This was a real time of example of making action taking feel as easy and stress free as getting your coffee in the morning!
In this episode I share:
- The benefit of giving yourself grace and allowing yourself to be a human with real emotions. You can’t hack your humanity. You don’t have to suffer with it and you do have to feel it.
- A case for adding more generative, nourishing and nurturing tasks into your day to day work + my biggest take away my 30 day podcast sprint.
- The number one sign of purpose work.
- Why I don’t want you to do it scared, I want you to neutralize the fear so the path to taking action is smoother.
PS…
Enrollment is open for the Anti-Confidence Clinic.
A 6 week program where you unplug from the pressure to feel confident so you can move.
What would it feel like for taking action in life and work felt as easy as making your morning cup of coffee?
No drama.
No overthinking.
No negotiating.
Just moving forward.
You’re about to find out.
We’ll find yourself on the other side of overwhelm, lack of clarity, fear of judgement and feeling powerless.
You’ll be running towards the things that used to scare you instead of being bullied by them.
Taking action will begin to feel as easy as making your morning coffee.

35 min - [MINDSET] E38. Locating your power to move in the midst of feeling stuck!
I was comparing some of the biggest moments in my life where I felt stuck — like life just had me in freakin’ chokehold and it occurred to me that there was one thing happening every single time.
When I felt stuck in my career — like the job I was doing was paying me well, but sucking the life force energy from me.
When I felt stuck in my body — like no matter what I was doing, I couldn’t release the 80 pounds of weight I gained after leaving a toxic workplace situation.
When I felt stuck in my unhappy marriage — like I was destined to never experience magic and would always have to settle.
There was one lie, I was believing, that was consistently at the root.
I share it in this episode, plus:
- Why laughter is good for the soul and how it helps to regulate your nervous system.
- A riff on leadership and how you can be a regulating resource for other people.
- Feeling stuck doesn’t actually mean you are stuck.
- You can love your body and still decide to lose weight, build muscle and drink less alcohol. It doesn’t mean you are in shame. Plus, is self love as a construct even necessary?
- What to do TODAY if you feel stuck in your relationship, job or body or anything!

Wouldn’t it be fun to—
… conquer the battle with self belief once and for all so you can move.
… know how to give your brain a chiropractic adjustment to the funny thing it’s been doing, that left you feeling paralyzed, even though you have boatloads of success, so you can move.

Fuck confidence. Know your power.

25 min - [LIFE] E33. The Death By Disappointment Cocktail + 4 Other Gifts From the Marriage that Completed its Assignment at Year 9.
How is it that y'all just keep getting me to talk about things on the pod in a way I don't anywhere else.
I tell on myself for 40 minutes -- allow the ways I showed up in my marriage to be a blueprint for you to make more useful, informed, powerful choices in your relationships.
Blame is easy. Responsibility is tougher -- and that's also where the magic is, where the transformation occurs and where you GET the gifts of your experience. I wouldn't trade a single experience of my life because I am absolutely obsessed with the woman I've become on the other side. This one can be filed in multiple places... relationship resilience, personal resilience, leadership, freedom... We cover so much.
In this episode I share:
- How I was able to exit my marriage from a place of love and how I can wish my ex well despite his actions.
- What to do if you find your relationship isn't nourishing you.
- How secrets and lies made eroded us from the inside out.
- The recipe for what I call the death by disappointment cocktail -- in which I break down the harm in settling/lowering your standards.
- The mindset that allows me to have zero regrets in spite of investing 15 years in a relationship that no longer exists.
- How being selfish is the key to creating collective wellness in your relationship.

42 min - [LIFE] E32. Debunking the "women should submit to their man" marriage advice. What I got wrong and the #1 reason I think people don't get what they want from their relationship.
Today, August 23, would’ve been my 15 year wedding anniversary. In honor of the marriage that didn’t last, I’m doing…
You probably thought I was gonna say, launching a new relationship podcast – because isn’t that what everyone is doing these days?
Maybe it’d be named “Failure to Last: The Do’s and Don’t of Making it Work” –
but I’m really just gonna share 15 of the gifts (read: lessons) I received from the marriage that completed its assignment.
On today’s episode I share:
An unplanned riff on why I think every woman could benefit from starting a podcast.
Why I think you could benefit from ignoring relationship advice.
The toxic belief system that led me to get married for reasons other than soulmate love.
Why I don’t think wives should “submit” to their husbands and what I think is a more useful idea.
Where most relationships go wrong and the obvious fix.

36 min - [LIFE] E31. What If Every Prior Season of Life Was Training Camp for Where You Are Today?
2017 supporting my dad with terminal cancer trained me for supporting his sistercousin with terminal cancer in 2020.
2012 wrongful termination trained me for being laid off in 2020.
2014 exiting a high demand religious organization trained me for exiting a 15 year relationship and 9 year marriage in 2017
There’s this saying… “What got you here won’t get you there.”
And I’d like to offer you a different set of glasses to look through.
What got you HERE is ab-so-fucking-lute-ly what will get you THERE.
Every prior season of life was training camp for where you are today. The place your feet are planted now is training camp for tomorrow.
You’re building… the tactical skills. the muscles of resilience. the network of relationships. the ability to metabolize emotional pain.
Today’s challenge, should you choose to accept it: Notice how THAT got you HERE and HERE will get you THERE.
Want the churchy version? God intends for us to go from faith to faith and glory to glory…and all that.
We cover all this and so much more in the episode...

33 min - [LIFE] E30. The Story Around Gaining 80 Pounds to Self Protect, Getting Naked & Being Seen Trying...
Did I really just say that?
Jesus be a MFing fence. LOL. Okay that’s dramatic AF. It wasn't actually that bad... That said, the former church girl died another small death today.
All jokes aside, I don’t know if there is a world where I ever thought I would talk about how I gained 80 pounds after wrongful termination and the issues that created in my sex life, but I digress. It's a universal experience so there's that.
Anyhow, in this episode I share:
- The root of my 80 pound weight gain and what it taught me about self-protection and visibility.
- The mental game I played that got me back to a public workout space after years of avoiding it.
- The life long lesson I learned on a yoga mat years 5 years ago that still serves me today.
- Where to put your attention if you cannot access the feeling of confidence, your knowingness or sureness.
- Why I believe it’s really cool to be SEEN trying.
- And lots more…
