In this powerful conversation, I sit down with John "Hoppy" Hopkins, found of Dying to Live With Purpose, to explore how awareness of mortality can unlock courage, clarity, and deeper meaning in life. 

Hoppy shares insights from his near-death experiences and his work as a Life & Death guide, revealing how our fear of death quietly shapes our decisions -- an how facing it can free us to live more boldly and authentically.  

We talk about: 

• Why death awareness dissolves fear 
• The connection between mortality and purpose 
• How to live with greater presence and gratitude 
• Practical ways to shift from avoidance to alignment 

This episode, and every episode is an invitation to stop postponing your life -- and start living it fully and unapologetically!

In this episode, I dive into another practice from my book 29 Days: The Self Love Leap.  I explore what it means to step outside your comfort zone -- not just emotionally or spiritually, but physically and nutritionally ... through the food you choose to put on your plate.  

Growth doesn't happen in comfort. And neither does healing. 

So many of us are stuck in the same food ruts -- eating the same processed, convenient, familiar foods over and over again.  Not because they nourish us .. but because they're predictable.  They feel safe. They're easy. 

But what if the very thing keeping you stuck in your body .. is also the thing keeping you stuck in your life? 

This episode is about a simple practical shift that you can make to feel better physically, nutritionally, emotionally, and spiritually!   And these practical wellness tips, when implemented, make it just a little bit easier to cultivate self-love!

In this episode, I'm joined by Liz Albanis, founder of Liz Albanis Wellness and host of the podcast Yoga for Trauma: The Inner Fire of Yoga. Liz is a senior yoga teacher with over a decade of experience, a yoga therapist in training, and a holistic health and wellness coach blending yoga, Pilates, barre, and fitness to support mental, emotional, and physical healing. Her work centers on making yoga accessible, compassionate, and trauma-informed, helping individuals create personalized practices that fit their lifestyles and support nervous system regulation, resilience, and overall well-being. Liz's belief that no two bodies or healing journeys are the same shapes everything she offers ”from private tailored sessions to mentoring other teachers on functional, mindful, and inclusive approaches that go far beyond traditional studio classes.  

Liz's own journey through stress, trauma, and recovery offers powerful context for her teachings. After losing her home in a devastating fire, she turned to yoga not just for physical movement but as a lifeline for navigating loss, rebuilding inner stability, and cultivating mental strength. On the podcast, we explore how Liz integrates her lived experience with trauma-informed practices that honor each person's unique story, how yoga can be a tool for mental health and nervous system support, and how small, intentional daily practices can transform stress into resilience. Whether you're deepening your practice or seeking holistic tools for healing and grounded living, this conversation reveals the heart of yoga beyond the poses ~ where transformation happens.

In this episode, Dan Purcell of Get Your Marriage On, and I dive into one of the most intimate -- and often most misunderstood -- areas of marriage and relationships: sex. We explore why communicating about sex with your spouse can feel so vulnerable, awkward, or even unsafe, and how silence in this area often creates more distance than protection. 

We unpack why sex is so difficult to talk about, especially for couples shaped by shame, religious messaging, people-pleasing, or unspoken expectations.  Many couples aren't actually struggling with desire -- they're struggling with feeling seen, wanted, relaxed and emotionally connected. 

We also explore how to overcome common sexual obstacles, including mismatched libidos, feeling disconnected from your body, past wounds, communication breakdowns, and the "nice guy/ good girl" patterns that quietly kill polarity and passion.  We talk about about intimacy deepens when both partners feel free to express their desires, boundaries, and fantasies without fear of rejection or judgment. 

And yes we bring the heat ! We share our spiciest, most practical tips for cultivating a more fulfilling sex life -- ideas that go beyond technique and focus on energy, intention, playfulness, and emotional attunement. 

If you've ever felt stuck in this arena, this is an episode you won't want to miss!

Today, I sit down with Dr. Hilary Claire.  We explore the realities of motherhood burnout, the invisible mental and emotional load so many moms carry, and the pressure to meet unrealistic standards of "perfect parenting".  

We also dive into a common daily stressor for families: picky eating.  Rather than approaching it with fear, control, or shame, we discuss how to navigate food challenges with curiosity, compassion, and connection. This conversation reframes picky eating as communication, sometimes to something deeper such as sensory issues, nutrient deficiencies, or reflexes that have yet integrated.  

Dr. Hilary Claire is a clinical psychologist specializing in nutrition and environmental medicine, a yoga teacher, author, and mama who brings a whole-body, whole-life approach to wellness.  Dr. Hilary's work centers on empowering parents -- especially moms -- to nurture resilient kids and vibrant others in a world that often feels misaligned with how our bodies and nervous systems are designed to thrive.  She blends research, lived experience, and deeply rooted holistic strategies to support emotional wellbeing, brain health and sustainable lifestyle shifts for families.

In this transformative conversation, I sit down with Nicole Bartlett -- intentional living architect, certified breathwork facilitator, Reiki Master, and founder of the Louisville Salt Cave -- to explore the power of breathwork as a catalyst for awakening, clarity, emotional release, and renewal. Nicole blends science, spirituality, and courage to guide individuals into greater self-awareness and intentional living. 

Together, we dive into how conscious breathwork helps us:

~ Access the subconscious to recognize resistance and acceptance. 

~ Clear old emotional patterns and energetic blocks that no longer serve us.

~ Bring clarity and alignment through integrating breathwork with meditation. 

~ Open space for the new -- purpose, presence, and possibility.

This episode is for anyone ready to let go of what's been holding them back and breathe into a more honest, intentional, and awakened way of living.

Declutter Challenge: January 2026

For the past 9 or 10 years, each January, I host a Declutter Challenge which includes simplifying your life one day at a time! 

January 1: Donate or Toss 1 item
January 2: Donate or Toss 2 items
January 3: Donate or Toss 3 items , etc. etc. 

Have you ever noticed how hard it is to move forward in your life when your space feels heavy, crowded, or chaotic? 

Clutter isn't just about stuff. It's about stuck energy, unfinished stories, and decisions that were never fully made.

When our physical environment is cluttered, it quietly mirrors what's happening inside of us. 

Clutter can interfere with our ability to move forward.  Just as excess weight can make it more difficult to do fun things, clutter can do the same! 

Give yourself the gift of choice!

Say to yourself:  

"I am choosing what stays."
"I am choosing what matters."
 "I am choosing my next chapter." 

Many people hold onto clutter out of guilt, obligation, or fear: 
    Someone gave this to me ...
    I might need this someday ...
    If I let this go, I'm letting go of a version of myself... 
    I might forget the memory or the person this reminds me of ... 

Decluttering can be an act of self-love! When we clear our physical environment, we free up our mind, our body, our spirit! We are often freeing up time to pursue the things we love
