Hello 2025! With the new year comes many goals and resolutions. I'm here to give you insight on a goal I've been chasing for months now, my experience and why I hired a coach to help get me there.

Hiring a coach or working with an accountability partner to assist you in your goals for this year can be the key that unlocks these results.

Give this a listen and then go out there and go get it!

Sam Kabert, author of the #1 Bestselling Book “SOUL/Life Balance”, a Keynote Speaker & Breathwork Teacher, joins me on this episode to discuss hitting rock bottom and depression into finding peace and happiness.

Sam spent the early part of his career chasing success and in the process was named to Silicon Valley’s 40 under 40 list at just 31 years old. Despite building a million dollar business as an Entrepreneur, Sam realized that he was unfulfilled and was lacking a deeper purpose to his life.

Since 2019, Sam has courageously embraced a transformative path of self-discovery, centering his focus on prioritizing mental health. This personal evolution has become the heartbeat of his message, as he passionately speaks about the profound yet simple practice of SOUL/Life Balance.

Attachment styles or types reflect how you behave in a romantic (or any) relationship and are based on the emotional connection you formed as an infant with your primary caregiver.

Emily does an incredible job explaining what each one is, how they are formed in every one of us and their importance in our daily lives in each and every relationship.

Listen to my first episode with Emily (Ep. 144) as we discuss the emotions and family dynamics of shame and guilt, what they look like, and how to properly cope with them.
