The Art of Being You

In this episode of The Art of Being You, I share a short but powerful conversation with Jayson Graystone — a highly successful trader and businessman — but more importantly, someone who embodies a kind of leadership that isn’t often talked about.

What stood out to me wasn’t just what he said… but how he showed up.

There are certain people who carry a presence that shifts a room without needing to perform, impress, or prove anything. And it raises an important question:

What is it that actually creates that kind of confidence?

In this conversation, we explore what it looks like to operate from internal authority — and how that changes the way you lead, make decisions, and show up in business and life.

This is a short, focused conversation — but one that captures something deeper than just words.

As you listen, pay attention not only to what’s being said… but how it feels.

If this episode speaks to you, follow the show and continue with the next conversation.

This podcast is for those navigating the shift from external validation to internal authority — in leadership, business, and life.

After several years away from the microphone, The Art of Being You is returning with a deeper message and a clearer purpose.

In this episode, I share why I stepped away from my work for a period of time, what that space allowed me to see, and why this next chapter of the podcast feels different.

During this time, I reflected deeply on patterns I’ve seen in so many capable people — overthinking decisions, second-guessing themselves, feeling responsible for everyone around them, and constantly looking outside themselves for validation.

What I realized is that confidence was never the real issue.

Confidence is the outcome.

The real shift happens when we move from external validation to internal authority.

This podcast is about understanding the identity patterns that shape how we lead, communicate, and make decisions. Because when identity aligns, presence changes. When presence changes, leadership becomes natural — and confidence follows.

If you’ve ever felt capable but still unsure, strong but still exhausted, or clear but still hesitant to fully trust yourself, this space is for you.

Welcome back to The Art of Being You.

Happy Valentines Day to you! We have a special episode on this day for you to enjoy. It is a topic that most people do not discuss while in a relationship and is necessary for one to thrive.  

Let's be honest. Vulnerability and intimacy are sometimes the hardest things to build that require both parties to feel safe and not judged. We share some awesome tips for those who still want to grow in their relationships and give it depth. 

Enjoy the laughs and the vulnerability.  

In this episode, we dive in a bit deeper into what communication in relationships really is. The ability to identify your communication style and to identify your needs is crucial for everything to be in harmony. At the end of the day, communication is a massive pillar for a couple. Self-love really comes into play here as well. Loving yourself enough to talk about what your needs are and also your ability to bring up problems in a relationship. 

Listen up as we share some mistakes we all make and tips to help you move through all the junk and get to the point of having harmony and essential conversations without the hassle. 

Let's be honest, we have all self-sabotaged at some point in our relationships. A good question to bring up is, how many times have you stood in your own way of your happiness because "what if..."? In this episode we discuss why we self-sabotage in relationships and how to stop it. Identifying patterns and understanding where they come from are a great way to show up in relationships fully prepared and ready!

Resentment in relationships is very common. It can be the wedge that starts creating disconnect and toxicity. The toxicity it creates may impact a relationship enough to cause irreparable damage. We talk about the types of resentment, the causes, and some tips on how to help your relationship survive it! Let's start becoming aware of our habits and start creating healthy relationships!

Who are you when you are in a relationship? What role do you normally take? Does it serve you? These are just some questions that we discuss in this episode. I brought my husband in to get his perspective and for men to hear a male perspective on this topic. We share some of our challenges in our relationship that led us to have the conversation that was needed to move forward. 

In this powerful episode, we discuss a very intriguing question. Do you love yourself just for being yourself? Or do you love yourself with conditions?

Do you know the impact the response to these questions has on your life? A HUGE impact on what you attract and what you see in the mirror. Do you want to change it? If so, listen up and share with family and friends!

Setting healthy boundaries is a form of self-love. In relationships of all sorts, boundaries are a must. You teach people how to treat you based on your boundaries. Boundaries is also tied to how strong your identity is. Taking your power back from situations that have caused you stress, trauma, or sadness makes a big difference on how you respect yourself. Enjoy the episode and the tips to help you start setting some healthy boundaries.
