In this milestone episode, I invite you into a heartfelt, intimate conversation about purpose, self-awareness, and the inner leader waiting to rise within you.

If there is one message to carry into 2025, it’s this:
You are bigger than your circumstances — and you were born to lead your life with intention.

Through warmth, storytelling, and deep reflection, I remind you of the courage, wisdom, and self-reliance you arrived with in this world… long before doubt, expectations, and noise dimmed your inner light. This episode gently guides you back to the truth you may have forgotten:
You already have everything you need to create the life you want.

Whether you’re stepping into a new chapter, longing for change, or returning to yourself after a difficult season, this episode is your wake-up call — an invitation to reconnect with your purpose, your power, and the leader you were always meant to be.

If something in you is stirring… this is your sign.
Your inner leader is calling.
And this episode is your reminder to answer.

This episode explores the moments when someone believed in us before we believed in ourselves—those mentors, leaders, and friends who saw our potential and changed our direction with one opportunity.

“Become Who You Once Needed” is a warm reflection on growth, confidence, and the full circle of becoming: receiving support, rising because of it, and eventually offering that same belief to others.

A short, heartfelt reminder of the impact people have on our becoming—and the impact you can have on someone else’s.

In this episode, I invite you to look at gratitude from a completely new angle — one that goes beyond counting blessings and begins honoring your courage, your decisions, and the strength with which you continue moving forward.
We are great at being thankful for what we receive, but we rarely express gratitude for our ability and willingness to give, what we have overcome, and the way we keep showing up for our own life.
This episode explores the side of gratitude no one talks about: gratitude toward yourself.
A gentle and transformative reminder that you haven’t only been blessed…
You are also a blessing.

In this episode of The Genius in You, we explore how our surroundings shape the way we think, create, and solve problems. So often, when we feel stuck, we assume the solution has to come from inside our brain. But the truth is, creativity and problem-solving often flow more easily when we lean on what’s around us—not just what’s within us.

Drawing from Annie Murphy Paul’s book The Extended Mind, you’ll discover how places, objects, and even nature can extend your intelligence beyond your brain. Through practical examples and personal stories, this episode will inspire you to rethink where and how you do your best thinking—and to partner with your environment to unlock your genius.

In this episode of The Genius in You, we explore what’s really happening beneath the surface of a so-called “midlife crisis.” If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, “Something’s missing,” even when everything looks great on paper, this conversation is for you. We’ll dive into how to recognize the signs of an awakening, why they often show up in our 30s, 40s, or 50s, and how an awakening  (not crisis) can be your greatest guide forward.
