Have you ever hit a big win…and felt nothing?

Have you chased success, only to realize it was shallow or meaningless?

And what happens when we finally start living in alignment with our soul instead of our ego?

Today, Alyson and I dive into success, comparisons, and the art of getting over yourself. We talk about who we are underneath the urge to protect, please, and prove, and why it’s actually a gift when our wins feel empty.

Do you have a voice in your head telling you what you should and shouldn’t do?

Why does this “tyranny of should” drain our aliveness, passion, and connection?

And how might your life change if you weren’t afraid to be who you truly are?

Today, Alyson and I talk about how we all “should” on ourselves and each other. We explore how this can leave us feeling trapped and emotionally constipated—and what life can feel like when we loosen our grip on control.

Do you talk to AI like it’s your therapist?

Is it wrong to prefer interactions with a machine over a human?

And how is our pursuit of comfort killing our sense of confidence and meaning?

Is the “nice girl” always boring — and the “bad girl” more fun?

And do we really need to put on an act just to make a relationship work?

Today, Alyson and I talk about something a lot of people wrestle with — feeling torn between who we’re attracted to and who’s actually a better fit. We explore why we often contort ourselves to be accepted, how that shapes attraction, and what to do if feel like you have to choose between chemistry and connection.
