Hi y'all! 

In this weeks episode, I yapped about how controlling your focus controls your future. This is important because whatever you repeatedly focus on, you strengthen those neural pathways and it becomes your default to your core.

I share some practical tools on how to stop doing this, and I also talk about lessons from my horse, who is a crazy powerful partner in life that mirrors my energy and teaches me about intentional presence.

Bottom line: You don't need to change your entire life to get the changes you want, you just need to shift your focus, one thought at a time!

Hi guys!

Last week we talked about dysregulation. This week, we’re going deeper! In this episode, I break down what’s actually happening inside your nervous system when you spiral, shut down, overreact, and/or go numb. I explain the science of the nervous system in a way that makes sense, and why your body reacts before your mind can catch up.

We’ll talk about how trauma lives in the body, how self-worth and safety are connected. And most importantly, I walk you through how to start unwiring those old survival patterns so you can feel safer, more grounded, and more connected in your everyday life.

You’re not crazy. You’re not too sensitive. You adapted. And healing is possible. Thanks for being here!

Hi y'all! 

In this episode, I’m talking about something that completely changed the way I see myself: nervous system regulation. For so long, I thought I just had an anxiety problem. But the truth is, my body just didn’t feel safe. I

’m sharing what dysregulation actually looks like in real life, the simple ways I reset my nervous system, and what horses have taught me about safety. If you’ve been judging yourself for being reactive, overwhelmed, or “too much,” this conversation might reframe everything. 

You’re not crazy. You’re dysregulated. And that’s something you can work with! Thanks for being here!!

Hey y’all! 

In this episode, we’re piggy backing off of last week's topic. I talk about the frustrating gap between knowing better and feeling better. 

After learning emotional fact-checking in therapy, I thought I had my anxiety figured out, until recent stressful situations completely activated my nervous system, even though I logically knew I was safe. I realized I was using my new tools to invalidate myself instead of supporting myself. 

I share what I've learned about the missing piece: your body doesn't update as fast as your mind, and emotions need validation, not just logic. 

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still spiraling, this one's for you. 

Thanks for being here!

Hey y’all! In this episode, I dive deep into one of my favorite therapy skills: emotional fact-checking. I walk you through the six-step process that's helped me break free from anxiety spirals and stop making assumptions that send me into emotional chaos. 

I get real about my struggles with jumping to conclusions, building narratives that aren't true, and letting my emotions take the wheel when they shouldn't be driving. 

Whether it's dealing with someone not texting back, work anxiety, or just the everyday mental spirals we all experience, this DBT approach is so helpful. If you've ever felt like your brain runs away without you, or you struggle with being emotionally reactive like I do, this episode has a six step practical tool you can use right away. 

I hope it helps you, and reminds you that you can feel deeply and still think clearly!

Hi angels! Happy New Year! 

In this episode, I’m reflecting on everything that changed for me in 2025 - a year that didn’t look insanely dramatic while I was living it, but insanely transformed my life! I talk about leaving a toxic relationship, buying my first horse, stepping into a more aligned job, growing my income, forming my LLC, and rebuilding a sense of safety and self-trust along the way. 

This isn’t a highlight reel or a “how-to” episode. It’s an honest look at what happens when you choose alignment over survival, peace over chaos, and consistency over intensity. If you’re in a season of change, grief, or becoming, this episode is for you. 

Thank you for being here!

Hi y'all! 

Continuing the vulnerability trend here and opening up about my struggles with PMDD since I was 15. Living with this means I deal with intense mood swings, fatigue, and self-doubt every cycle. 

It’s not just PMS, it's a real, diagnosable condition that deeply affects people's mental health. I’m learning to be kinder to myself, track my patterns, and remind myself that I’m not alone or broken. 

If you relate, know that you’re allowed to take up space and care for yourself, even on the hard days.

I hope this helps. Thanks for being here!

Hey y'all! In this episode of ShySpace, I open up about one of the hardest lessons I’ve learned — trusting my gut. I talk about what it really means to listen to your intuition and know when it’s time to walk away from relationships or situations that don’t align with you. 

I share my experience from a deeply painful breakup as well. Through it all, I’ve learned that love isn’t about fixing someone; it’s about alignment, partnership, and peace. 

We’ll dive into intuition, emotional health, and the truth about moving in with a partner — the good, the bad, and the lessons in between. 

My hope is that by sharing my story, you’ll feel seen, supported, and reminded that healing doesn’t just make you stronger… It makes you wiser! 

Thank you for being here.

Hey guys! 

This week I open up about the challenges of breaking free from survival mode and the importance of rest in the healing journey. 

I share my personal experiences with anxiety, burnout, and the pressure to always be productive, and discuss how deeply rooted patterns from childhood and adulthood can make slowing down feel unsafe. 

My hope is to remind you that rest is not laziness, it's a vital part of healing and living a fulfilling life! 

Thanks for being here!

Hi y’all! 

This week I dive into the topic of childhood trauma and how it can actually be transformed into potential. 

I share my own experiences with uncertainty, self-limiting beliefs, and the ways our upbringing shapes our mindset around things like money, success, and risk. 

My goal is to remind you that you’re not alone in these struggles, and that with awareness and intention, you can rewrite your story and create the life you truly want.

Thank you for being here!
