I turn 40 today. And let me tell you—I have never felt more powerful, more whole, and more me. Not because life has been easy. Not because I have it all figured out. But because I’ve earned every piece of wisdom I carry.

There’s a shift that happens as you approach 40. You stop contorting yourself to fit spaces that don’t honor you. You stop explaining your boundaries. You stop waiting for permission to take up space. You realize that healing isn’t about being softer—it’s about being stronger.

This episode is the real talk, no-BS, unapologetic riff on everything I’ve learned—about friendships, boundaries, self-worth, and owning your damn life. If you’ve ever needed permission to stop playing small, consider this it.

Here’s to stepping fully into our power—whether you’re turning 40, 30, or just done with old patterns.

Let’s go. 🎙️🔥

If your inner voice was a person, would you still be friends?

For too many of us, the answer is a hard no. We criticize, doubt, and tear ourselves down in ways we’d never do to someone we love. And over time, that voice? She starts running the show.

In this episode, we’re going deeper—into the real effects of constant self-criticism, how it shapes the way we show up in life, and why for so many women (especially in seasons of transition like adolescence, motherhood, and peri-maybe-what-the-hell-is-happening), the critic suddenly feels louder than ever.

We’ll unpack the sneaky ways social media and perfectionism warp how we see ourselves, the actual tools you can use to take back control, and how to start speaking to yourself with the same love and fire you give to everyone else.

Because your voice should be the one lifting you up—not tearing you down.

Let’s rewrite the story, shall we? Hit play.

This episode is all about that inner critic we all know too well - you know, the voice that loves to tear you down and make you doubt yourself. 

We're diving deep into how we often become our own worst enemy, letting negative self-talk and past experiences dim our shine. 

But here's the real talk: you're not here to shrink or apologize for your dreams. It's time to kick that inner critic to the curb and start celebrating yourself like you would your best friend or your kids. 

We'll explore how those doubting voices started, why they're not serving you, and how to turn up the volume on your own self-love. If you're ready to stop waiting for permission to be awesome and start owning your magic, this episode is your sign. 

Silence the noise and start living like you truly deserve to be here - because spoiler alert: you absolutely do! 💪✨

I share my own messy truths—from ignoring feathers and slaps to getting hit by life-altering trucks in love, business, and everything between.

If you’ve been stuck, swirling in your head, afraid to take the next step—this one’s for you. We’ll explore why we procrastinate, how to break free, and why clarity, confidence, and joy come after the action, not before.

Raw, Real, and Unfiltered Muse Haus Pep Talk

You’re not stuck. You’re hesitating.

Brutal? Maybe. But sometimes, the thing holding us back isn’t the world, the circumstances, or even the timing—it’s us. It’s the pause between knowing what we want and actually moving toward it.

In this unfiltered riff, I’m pulling back the curtain on the stories we tell ourselves about being "stuck" and calling out the fear, self-doubt, and overthinking that often hide beneath it.

This is your reminder that clarity comes through action, not before it. That hesitation is just fear wearing a prettier outfit. And that moving forward—even one tiny, messy step—is where your power is waiting.

Consider this your loving nudge (or slap, depending on how you take it) to stop overthinking and start moving.

Let’s get you unstuck. For real this time.

Welcome back to Muse Haus. This week, we’re stripping away the illusion that healing is some neat, upward trajectory. Because let’s be real—it’s messy, it loops, it unravels us before it stitches us back together. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own healing journey—the moments I thought I was ‘done’ healing only to find myself face down in another layer of it.

We’ll talk about nervous system healing, what it means to truly integrate our past, and how sometimes healing looks like remembering your coffee in the microwave seven hours later. Because both versions of you—the one who feels put together and the one who’s barely holding on—are worthy.

Let’s dive in.

The holiday season often arrives wrapped in glitter and expectations—family gatherings, endless invites, financial pressures, and the weight of everyone else’s needs. But beneath the surface, this season can also carry grief, exhaustion, and the quiet ache of unmet hopes. In this episode, I share my own reflections on a year filled with loss, growth, and rebirth—friendships that ended, paths that realigned, hard conversations, and deep moments of love and connection.

Together, we’ll explore the duality of this season—the joy and the heaviness, the beauty and the ache. You’ll be invited to pause, breathe, and tune into your own values and truth, instead of slipping into people-pleasing patterns or overextending yourself.

I’ll also offer four heartfelt actions to help you anchor yourself, set boundaries, and embrace this season in a way that feels honest and peaceful for you.

This is your gentle reminder: You are allowed to honor your capacity, your heart, and your truth this season.

Tune in, breathe deep, and let’s find a little peace together.

In this episode, Tara Lee dives deep into the paradox of life—the balance between joy and pain, love and loss, laughter and tears. Life doesn’t always go as planned. There are storms, breakdowns, traumas, and moments of doubt. Yet, amidst it all, there is choice. We can choose what we hold on to and what we let go. Tara opens up about her own personal journey—family breakdowns, the ending of her marriage, solo parenting, and the storms she’s weathered—and reflects on how we often carry our pain like a heavy weight, forgetting that love, light, and laughter are also available to us.

Through heartfelt stories and deep reflection, this episode explores how we can choose to feed our lives with joy, connection, and the love of those who show up for us. It’s about taking responsibility for what we allow to consume our energy and choosing, instead, to embrace the love that’s right in front of us. If you’ve been stuck in cycles of suffering or weighed down by the past, this episode will inspire you to shift your perspective and start choosing joy and love instead.

Check in with yourself. What are you feeding? What are you giving life to in your own heart? And when the time comes, will you choose the love that’s there, the joy, the laughter, the living that’s waiting for you?

Tune in, and let Tara remind you that laughter, connection, and love are your birthright—even in the midst of life's messiest moments.

In this episode of Muse Haus, we explore the profound impact of our subconscious beliefs on our lives. These hidden thoughts, shaped by past traumas and experiences, influence our actions, self-worth, and perceptions. 

Tara shared her personal story and how she confronted deeply entrenched beliefs formed during her teenage years. She emphasized the importance of recognizing, understanding, and healing these beliefs through self-awareness, body connection, and self-compassion. 

By identifying, challenging, and reframing these narratives, we can rewrite our stories and step into a more empowered and authentic self. Practical steps for this journey include recognizing the stories we tell ourselves, practicing breathwork, challenging and reframing beliefs, and nurturing self-compassion.
