My oldest friend Alix Kirshner joins me for one of the realest conversations we've ever had on this show

We go allllll the way back, through the loss of her sister Remy, addiction, a cancer diagnosis, and the winding path that led her to become a psychedelic guide and founder of Higher Healing.

We get into what it’s actually like to go on a psychedelic healing journey. Then, the tables turn with yours truly becoming the case study! Sharing behind the curtains of what it’s like to have Alix guide me through my own psilocybin journey and everything that came up after.

We unpack:

* Signs that discomfort is not something is wrong, but right

* Control is often the illusion of safety, not the reality of it

* How the REAL work of healing is what happens AFTER the journey

* How to overcome scarcity mindset

* How to turn your pain into purpose

* And what happens when awareness plus acceptance equals healing

* The transformation on the other side you won’t want to miss

* And a BIG SURPRISE!!

This is a REAL one with a trigger warning (and also a juicy surprise you’re not going to want to miss!) We touch on grief, addiction, and a period of real emotional darkness. If anything in this episode brings something up for you, please don’t hesitate to reach out to either of us for support.

Have you ever tried to upgrade your identity but feel like it never sticks?

In this episode I sat down with identity transformation coach Mikayla Chisholm for a conversation that goes deep, fast. We get into why new jobs, new cities, and new relationships never actually fix the thing, why your results can only grow to the size of the identity holding them, and Mikayla’s framework for spotting the exact moment you start sliding back into old patterns. It’s part personal story, part practical toolkit, and it might just reframe how you think about your next big pivot.

Mikayla traces her own pattern of starting strong and then getting bored, back to a painful root, and unpacks the framework she now teaches to help people actually hold their breakthroughs instead of quietly sliding back down.

Note: this episode includes a brief, honest mention of a parent’s suicide. Mikayla shares it with care, but wanted to flag it for anyone who needs it.

So excited to introduce you to Katie - one of my first clients!!! We worked together over the last couple years both in 1:1 and group settings and now she has become a good friend of mine.

What I love so much about her story is that she was able to take her skills and experience in healthcare management and pivot it to doing something she loves and is passionate about 😉

I get this question a lot from people around “how do I make a pivot or change” and I think Katie’s story is such a powerful example of redefining what success means to you and going on to create success on your own terms.

Two and a half years ago, Katie was ten years into a stable, well paid health tech career that checked every box except the one that mattered: passion.

In this episode, Katie and I unpack her path from burnout and indecision to founder of Logan Planning Solutions, a luxury micro wedding and elopement planning business built entirely on her own terms!

We talk about the moment she knew it was time to leave (a five year program offer that made her want to run the other way), the pressure to have the whole plan figured out before taking a single step, and how she finally gave herself permission to explore without knowing exactly where it would lead.

Katie walks through the messy middle of trying on different paths (a dog sanctuary, landscape design, general event planning) before niching all the way down to micro weddings, then repositioning into luxury work once she trusted her own instincts over what she thought a career was supposed to look like.

If you’re in the middle of a career pivot, wondering whether you have to have it all figured out before you make a move, or trying to design your life around what actually lights you up instead of what looks good on paper, this conversation is for you!

Katie’s story is proof that following your intuition, one messy step at a time, is enough.

We Cover:

* The “golden egg” pressure of needing the next step to be perfect before you’ll take it

* Leaving a stable, well paid career that had zero passion behind it

* The stepping stone metaphor, and giving herself permission not to have it all figured out

* Work life balance versus work life integration

* Niching down from general event planning to micro weddings

* The mindset shift behind repositioning to luxury clients

* Growing an Instagram following by showing up as her real, unpolished self

* Her advice to her younger self

If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, go back and start here first. This is Part 2 and it picks up right where we left off.

Here’s the thing nobody tells you about making a big life change: it’s never just one leap. It’s a series of them. And the moment you decide your dreams, something will almost always show up to pull you back to what feels safe. In this episode Becky and I get real about what it actually looks like to follow the breadcrumbs of your intuition even when your fear is screaming louder, why there is no right or wrong decision but taking action will always beat staying still, and how two women on opposite sides of the world ended up building strikingly similar lives by following what lit them on fire even when it made absolutely no sense.

WE COVER:

* Why the universe tests you the moment you decide to make a change and what to do when it does

* How to follow those small callings even when they make no sense on paper

* “Your intuition is a lot quieter than your fear” and how to start tuning into her

* The simple phone notes exercise that helps you figure out what actually gives you energy vs. what drains you

* Are you making decisions from fear or from love? And how to tell the difference

* Why you get to choose your hard and what that actually looks like in real life

* The difference between doing the inner work and doing the strategy work and why you need both

* Why being in a room with the right people changes everything

* Embodied Mastermind sneak peak! Coming July 2026 which brings together business strategy, nervous system work & community- everything we wish they’d had when they were in the thick of it. Stay tuned for more details coming soon!

Have you ever looked at your life from the outside and thought - I have everything I’m supposed to want, so why does something still feel off? That’s exactly what this episode is about.

This week I’m bringing on someone who has walked alongside me at every single step of this journey - my biz bestie, biz partner, and one of my favorite humans, Becky Evans. Becky is an embodiment mentor for female entrepreneurs who have done the therapy, done the mindset work, and are ready to stop frying their nervous system in business so they can actually enjoy what they’ve built. She’s a former investment bank VP and her story will resonate with anyone who has ever chased a goal, achieved it, and still felt empty on the other side.

In this episode we’re getting into all of it - what it actually looks like to feel successful on the outside and completely numb on the inside, the real difference between coaching and therapy and when you need both, how to step into a new identity when you’re in the middle of a career change and it still feels awkward, the valley of despair that shows up in every single pivot, and why we always choose the familiar hell over a new heaven. Oh, and we coined a term you won’t forget: cosplaying a career change.

If you’re in the middle of a career pivot, thinking about starting a business, or just feel like something needs to change but you can’t quite name it yet; this one’s for you.

Welcome to the Life's Your Adventure Podcast, fam!

Let me guess- If you're a millennial, you were handed a definition of success that was never really ours to begin with. And somewhere along the way, you realized you were meant for more.

This podcast is for you if you're done following someone else's blueprint and ready to write your own! Whether that's through a career pivot, building something of your own, or just finally getting honest about what you actually want.

If you're in the messy middle, asking yourself "who am I anymore and what do I actually want?", you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Each week we're getting into the real, unfiltered conversations about redefining success, finding your purpose, and building a life that's authentically yours.

This first episode is where it all starts - my own story of blowing up the traditional path and what I learned on the other side.

We chat:

- The mindset shift that made unexpected disruptions feel less like failures and more like redirections

- Why slowing down was the most counterintuitive and effective thing I did for my business and my life

- The moment COVID forced me to stop, and what I discovered when I finally did

- How I manifested my dream podcast studio in Miami (and as a recovering perfectionist, how everything I ever wanted is on the other side of taking messy action)

- Why doing everything "right" still left me feeling off - and what finally clicked

And what's in store for the show! Welcome to the Life's Your Adventure podcast family and so gad you're here!
