This week on the podcast, I had such a great conversation with Jacqueline Hawk, a communications and empowerment coach, about a skill we all need: knowing what we want and learning how to ask for it.

Jacqueline walked me through her simple four-step process for improving communication—whether it’s in your relationships, at work, or just in everyday life. She shared some amazing insights about the unique challenges women (especially moms) face when it comes to speaking up for themselves. We talked about everything from overcoming those beliefs that hold us back to handling tricky conversations with confidence and finesse.

One thing that really stuck with me was how Jacqueline explained the emotional and societal pressures that make it hard to advocate for ourselves. She didn’t just talk about the problem—she gave practical, realistic tips that you can start using today to shift your mindset and communicate more effectively.

If you’ve ever hesitated to ask for what you need—or felt unsure about how to go about it—this episode is packed with tools and advice to help you move forward. I loved this chat, and I think you will too!

n 2012, with two decades of psychology and spirituality behind her, Dara McKinley faced a difficult situation that none of her previous knowledge could improve. Feeling called to try forgiveness, she searched online for a forgiveness ‘how-to’ and quickly discovered that there was so much about why one should forgive, but nothing about how.

Needing directions to follow, she decided to make her own forgiveness step-by-step, which upon completion, left her feeling peaceful for the first time in three years. Impressed by forgiveness’ effectiveness she quickly became a devotee.

Over the coming years, her experience with forgiveness would deepen  and so would her awareness of popular forgiveness understanding. Specifically she saw that most people had something they wanted to forgive but they didn’t know how. She also saw that mainstream forgiveness definitions were actually obscuring the forgiveness path. Seeing the need for a logical and straightforward forgiveness paradigm, Dara created How to Forgive.

Today we have Jessica Bowser, a former fourth-grade teacher and conservation advocate.

Jessica launched Virginia Outdoor Adventures to provide a platform for Virginians of all backgrounds to share their stories, connect with nature, and foster a sense of community where the outdoors is for everyone. She’s passionate about telling these stories through a conservation lens to inspire others to become stewards of the environment.

We had an amazing conversation about the outdoors, covering topics like:

• The benefits of spending time in nature
• Exercising outside
• Tips for beginner hikers
• The fears women face when hiking solo

I love discussing this topic because I’m passionate about making time to be outdoors—especially after everything I’ve learned through this podcast about the value of time spent in nature.

In this episode, I sit down with Kelly Smith to dive into meditation and bust some of the biggest myths.

Kelly is a Yoga and Meditation teacher, an author and a Podcaster. 

Do you think you *have to* sit still or completely clear your mind to meditate? Or that meditation takes way too much time? We’re here to show you how meditation can actually be simple, accessible, and work for anyone—even if you’re a beginner!

I loved hearing about Kelly and how she got into her work. I also resonated so much with her story! Her book, Meditation for the Modern Family is terrific and I have been reading it with my kids. Find her book here: Meditation for the Modern Family 

Key Points:
1. Meditation Isn’t About Emptying the Mind – Learn why meditation is really about observing your thoughts, not erasing them.
2. You Don’t Need Hours a Day – Discover how even a few minutes a day can have a big impact on your mental and physical health.
