What if the version of you that isn’t "all in" is still exactly what you need to move forward?

In today’s raw and powerful episode, I’m flipping the script on perfection, consistency, and the lies we’ve been fed about what it takes to really make progress.

You’ll learn why aiming for 100% is secretly sabotaging your results, why starting over all the time keeps you stuck, and how the 80% zone is where true change actually happens, the kind of change that lasts.

This episode is a wake-up call for every woman who’s ever ghosted herself because she couldn’t keep up with a plan that didn’t fit her real life.

It’s not about doing more.

The real reason perfection keeps you from making progress

Why showing up a little still rewires your brain for self-trust

The difference between “discipline” and identity

How to know when you’re in a dip, not a downfall

What it looks like to build consistency without burning out

You’ll walk away with a new definition of success - one that leaves room for the messy, unpredictable, very human version of you. And a reminder that your 40% still counts.

Where in your life have you been chasing perfection instead of progress?

This one’s a full-on travel prep episode.

As you’re hearing this, I’m just getting home from hosting my third women’s group trip which took place Banff - Canada! But just a few months ago, I was across the globe in Bali with another incredible group of women.

Between those two trips, and over a decade of international travel, I’ve learned a lot of things the hard way.

So today, I’m walking you through the exact steps I take before every international trip... from what to pack to what to download to what to leave the hell behind.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being prepared enough to actually enjoy the experience.

Ever looked around and thought, “I should be further along by now”?

This episode is the reminder you didn’t know you needed.

We’re unpacking the shame spiral that comes with feeling “behind” in your career, your relationship status, your bank account, or your purpose, and calling out the timeline lie that’s been running the show.

Because midlife isn’t a crisis.

In this episode, I share what it really looked like to walk away from a 13-year nursing career at 42 with no backup plan, no blueprint - just a gut-deep knowing that I couldn’t keep living on autopilot. And the truth? The scariest part wasn’t starting over. It was letting go of the life that no longer fit.

We talk about:

Why “catching up” is a trap that keeps you stuck

How to redefine progress when there’s no external proof

What it means to sit in the messy, uncomfortable in-between

How to trust yourself when the clarity isn’t there yet

Tangible steps to start moving forward without needing a full plan

This isn’t a feel-good moment.

So if you’re in the fog right now... questioning everything, second-guessing your choices, unsure what comes next - you’re not behind.

You’re rebuilding.

There’s a reason so many women don’t feel confident, and it has nothing to do with being fearless, ready, or more disciplined.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the one truth about confidence most people never tell you:

We’re talking about:

Why confidence starts with keeping the promises no one else sees

How we chip away at our own belief by ghosting ourselves

Why women who seem “confident” have just built a better track record with themselves

What it looks like to rebuild trust without perfection

And how five minutes of follow-through can rewrite your entire story

This episode isn’t about hype. It’s about real momentum —

Strong enough.

Brave enough.

Outgoing enough.

Young enough.

Just… enough.

Where that “not enough” story actually comes from

How to spot the ways it shows up in your decisions

What really happens when you stop waiting to feel “ready” and choose yourself instead

The ripple effect that saying yes has on every part of your life

If you’ve been standing at the edge of something you want, wondering whether you’re worthy of it… this one’s for you.

10 women.

This isn’t a vacation recap - it’s a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens when women stop waiting, get on the plane, and say yes to the thing that scares the hell out of them.

In this episode, you’ll hear directly from the women who came on my most recent Unapologetically Wild retreat in Bali.

What they were afraid of, what almost kept them from coming, and how this experience cracked them open in ways they didn’t see coming.

You’ll hear the truth, the self-doubt, the “what ifs,” the hesitation, and the moment everything shifted.

Because this isn’t just about Bali.

Whether you’ve been dreaming of a trip like this or just want to feel like you’re not the only one who second-guesses herself… this one’s for you.

🔥 We cover:

The most common fears women had before saying yes

What made them book the trip anyway

How strangers became chosen family

The power of showing up scared

Why this kind of transformation sticks

Ever notice how the second life veers off script, your whole mood shifts with it?

In this episode, I’m coming to you from Bali (yep, still pinching myself) with some real talk about expectations—how they quietly hijack your presence, mess with your energy, and keep you stuck chasing a version of life that doesn’t actually exist.

I’ll share why some of the most powerful moments of my life happened because the plan fell apart—not in spite of it. And why letting go—of the timeline, the checklist, the need for it to be perfect—might just be the most freeing thing you do all year.

We’re talking:

What to do when your carefully laid plans fall apart

How to bend without breaking (and why that’s real strength)

The trap of rigid expectations and how they block joy

My own behind-the-scenes fail before Bali (yep, I missed two podcast episodes—on purpose)

This isn’t about giving up on your vision.

Press play and let’s talk about what it really means to live wild, grounded, and free, no matter what life throws at you.

If someone followed you around all day and talked to you the way you talk to you…

Because most of us wouldn’t let a stranger say half the sh*t we say to ourselves—and yet we let it slide when it’s coming from inside our own head.

This episode is your wake-up call.

You can’t talk to yourself like sh*t and expect to rise.

Why your inner critic isn’t just annoying—it’s rewriting your story

The sneaky ways we internalize shame, fear, and "be small" messaging

A raw breakdown of how to actually shift your inner voice

Steps to rebuild self-trust (and stop breaking promises to yourself)

What Ted Lasso and trauma have in common (yep, we went there)

🎧 Whether you’ve been stuck in a shame spiral or just need a real conversation about mindset that doesn’t feel like toxic positivity, this episode is your sign.

We’ve all been handed a script for how life should look:

But what if that script never fit you in the first place?

In this episode, I’m calling out the quiet ways we abandon ourselves trying to meet expectations we never agreed to and what happens when we stop living for the “shoulds” and start living for what actually feels aligned.

I’ll share the real reason I never followed the traditional path, what I might have missed out on if I had, and why questioning the status quo might just be the most honest thing you’ll ever do.

This one is honest, direct, and a wake-up call if you’ve been living on autopilot.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why “should” is fear dressed up as logic

How I avoided a life that looked good on paper but felt like a trap

What happens when you start asking what you actually want

One small way to start unlearning the shoulds today

Sometimes the most important thing you can do… is pause.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a chapter that’s been anything but easy.

After months of living in a low-grade state of survival - navigating Phoebe’s health, abandoning my routines, and feeling completely disconnected from myself, I finally stepped away.

Five days in a luxury treehouse tucked into the Colorado mountains gave me the breathing room I didn’t even know I needed.

This wasn’t a trip to “reset” or come back with a 20-step morning routine. It was a return to presence. To myself. To stillness.

Inside this episode:

Why even the tools you know work fall away in survival mode

The cost of constantly being “on” - even for someone who teaches this work

What burnout really looks like (hint: it’s not always obvious)

How five quiet days in nature helped me shift back into my body and remember who I am

What I’m rebuilding now, and how I’m doing it differently

If you’ve felt disconnected, overwhelmed, or like your world’s gotten small lately, this one’s for you.

And, you don’t need a luxury treehouse in the mountains to feel like yourself again.

But you do need space, whatever that looks like for you.
