This is Personal

After a good cry and a journal session, I realized I’ve been slipping into a pattern I know all too well: prioritizing everything except myself. So in this episode, I unpack what that looked like this week (including a very human parenting moment), why I decided to go off of Zoloft during pregnancy, and the honest reminder I needed about creating space for me—outside of my work, outside of my business, and outside of being a mom.

I also talk about the question I keep coming back to when business starts to feel too big or heavy.

Whether you’ve been overwhelmed by your to-do list, your emotions, or your season of life, this episode is a gentle but honest nudge to come back to what matters most—and to build from there.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what a typical day looks like for me right now—while pregnant, running a business, and soaking up summer adventures with my kids. I’ll share how I structure my time, how I decide what to prioritize (in both work and life), and the mindset shifts that help me stay grounded and intentional—even when things don’t go perfectly.

Are you chasing the perks of entrepreneurship while quietly resenting the hard parts? You might be trying to hold only one side of the stick.

In this episode, I talk about the power of being honest about both sides of entrepreneurship—the beautiful and the brutal.

I walk you through the process of making a powerful decision: to embrace all of it and go all in or to set the stick down and choose a different path with clarity and peace.

Whether you're in a season of doubt or simply craving more clarity, this conversation will help you reflect on what you’re truly choosing—and where your power lies when you decide to fully pick it up… or set it down.

If you've ever avoided something in your business or personal life because it felt wrong, this episode is for you.

I unpack a recent realization from a conversation with my coach: the difference between something being unaligned and simply uncomfortable. I share personal stories—from navigating a launch that didn’t go as planned, to posting on Instagram, to saying no to playdates to prioritize work.

Whether you’re struggling to sell your offer, set a boundary, or prioritize your time, this conversation will help you ask better questions, get clear on your values, and move forward with confidence—even when it’s hard.

You’ll hear about:

• Why some of the most aligned things can also be deeply uncomfortable
• How alignment can shift with your priorities and season of life
• Real-life examples from my business, parenting, and personal growth
• Reflection questions to help you discern between unaligned vs. uncomfortable
• What to do if something feels aligned but still feels hard

In this episode of The Mindful With Media Podcast, I’m joined by relationship coach Sara Payne for a deep and meaningful conversation about what it takes to build strong, healthy, connected relationships—not just with your partner, but with yourself, your kids, and everyone in your life.

Sara walks us through the five pillars of a rock-solid relationship and shows how each one can shift the way we experience daily challenges—from resentment and scorekeeping to gratitude and stillness. Whether you're married to someone with a demanding job, navigating motherhood, or figuring out how to pursue your dreams without guilt, this episode is for you.

This one is full of "aha!" moments and personal stories we think every woman (especially entrepreneurs and moms) will relate to.

What We Cover:

• Why resentment is actually a good thing
• How to stop keeping score in your marriage and start solving problems as a team
• The surprising impact of seeing your partner (and yourself!) as your highest self
• Gratitude practices that feel real—not forced or guilt-driven
• Why stillness matters (even if you only find 5 minutes for it)
• What to do when your partner isn’t willing to work on your marriage

In this episode of The Mindful With Media Podcast, I’m diving into why cookie cutter strategies often fall short.

With all the free advice online (and yes, even tools like ChatGPT!), it’s easy to wonder if hiring a coach is still worth it. But here’s what I’ve learned over and over again: nothing compares to the power of personalized support.

I’m sharing real stories from my own coaching calls—like the two clients who had nearly identical goals, but needed completely opposite strategies. You’ll also hear examples around pricing, marketing, and mindset work that prove how different our paths can be (and should be).

If you’ve ever felt like traditional business advice didn’t quite fit, this episode is for you.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why AI and free advice can’t replace a real human mentor
• What happened when one client needed an Instagram strategy—and another needed to quit Instagram altogether
• A fresh take on pricing that doesn’t involve “just charge more”
• Why your sales and marketing should be based on your zone of genius
• How to filter business advice through your personal lens
• The reason honest, nuanced marketing attracts the right people
• A behind-the-scenes look at my new offer, The Genius Sprint

In this episode I dive into all things Human Design with Jade Alexander, host of The Simplify Podcast. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing life or business “wrong” because you don’t operate like everyone else, this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air.

Jade shares how learning about her Human Design type helped her let go of shame, trust her intuition, and simplify everything—from her schedule to parenting to big life decisions. We talk about what each type (Generator, Manifesting Generator, Projector, Reflector, and Manifestor) is designed for, and how understanding your strategy and authority can bring so much peace and clarity to your life.

We also touch on the pressure to be “productive,” the real purpose of trials, and how slowing down might be the most powerful thing you do.
