    Finding purpose within grief is a journey, one that requires patience, openness, and a willingness to see things differently.

It’s about recognizing that even in the midst of loss, there’s a part of you that longs to grow, to create meaning from what you’ve been through
    In this conversation, let's discuss how we can extract growth and learning even as we navigate our seasons of grief.

  • Ep #39: Grief & Writing P2-The Intersection of Grief, Self-Reflection, and Journaling
    When grief feels like an endless, overwhelming ocean, journaling creates a place where you can put down your anchor. It’s a way to carve out space for yourself in the storm, even if that space is just the few inches of a page.
    You don’t need to be a writer to make this work for you—what matters is showing up with your thoughts, no matter how tangled they feel.
    In this conversation, let’s talk about how this process unfolds, and how you can use self-reflection through writing to navigate the shifting tides of grief we all experience.

  • Ep #38: Grief & Writing P1-Thinking Through Tragedy-Hurrican Helene Reflections
    How do you make sense of life when everything you know is turned upside down?
    Living through the devastation of Hurricane Helene while navigating the loss of my Father-in-law has been one of the most profound experiences of my life. In an instant, everything changed—not just for me, but for my neighbors, my friends, and my community...and so we have two choices-to give in to hopelessness and despair or to become resilient and move forward with tenacity.
    In this conversation, I'm sharing my experiences over the last two weeks, reflections on what I've learned, and a writing/mental health practice that has helped me navigate the torrent of thoughts and emotions that have arisen in this season.
    The purpose of this episode is to offer hope and a shift in perspective if you are also facing a difficult season in your life.

  • Ep #36: What is Journal Coaching?
    Journaling is something many people turn to when they need to clear their heads, reflect on life, or just capture their thoughts and feelings on paper. It's a familiar practice, one that's been around for ages, and it serves as a personal outlet for self-expression and growth.
    But while traditional journaling is a great way to get in touch with yourself, there's another approach that takes things a step further—journal coaching.
    Journal Coaching adds structure, guidance, and purpose to the journaling process, making it a more targeted and transformative experience.
    In this conversation, let's discuss how The Journal Coaching Model saved MY life and let's dive into what sets traditional journaling apart from journal coaching and how each can serve you differently.

  • Ep #35: Knowing Ourselves More Fully

    Imagine what it would be like to let go of the pressure to be perfect, to stop trying to control everything, and to release the need for external validation. Imagine living in a way that is fully aligned with your values, where you choose calm over chaos, purpose over pressure, and authenticity over approval. This is the freedom that comes from knowing yourself more fully...

    In this conversation, I'm sharing food for thought about what it means to "fully know ourselves" so that we can be deeply connected and engaged in our lives.

    LET'S WRITE FOR A CHANGE: Reflective Journal Coaching Prompts are offered at the end of this episode to help you integrate what you've heard today into your life.
