What if all the actions we've taken, in circumstances we've been less than thrilled with, have happened so that the moment we're finally open and ready to changing our life, we have those breadcrumbs to look back on?

Loving compassion for the choices we've made--understanding why we make them and why they continue to show up--and how to use those moments as a roadmap for taking you to a better version of yourself. The Universe, God, Source wants you to see every lesson as an opportunity to get closer to the most authentic version of you. Growth hurts. Looking at ourselves is tough. Asking questions is hard and takes huge amounts of humility and vulnerability, but it also opens your heart, it opens you up to your colleagues, and shows you that taking the mask off shows you're human.

What if the reason you're drawn to certain movies is because they may hold a key to unlocking a piece of your healing journey?

Today, I walk you through the thought rabbit hole I went down recently regarding why I'm drawn to certain movies, and how I could relate the underlying themes back to unhealed pieces of my life. It was truly eye-opening!

You may never look at your favorite movies the same way again!

Wtf are you so happy about? *side eye*

Today we dive right into why we get angry or uncomfortable witnessing other people's happiness and joy, and it is NOT what you think.

Buckle up, Darlings... we are going there today.

The one you are looking for is the one who is looking. ~ St. Francis of Assissi

Write down every single time you pulled yourself from the depths. Remember those times. Write about them IN DETAIL to remind yourself of the hero that has lived inside you this entire time.

Take down the walls, drag the prince or princess out of the dungeon, and put on that cape.

In today's episode, we're taking a look at the ways we stand in opposition to our own best intentions for ourself, even when we know it's going to give us agita!

How many times have you told yourself not to watch Netflix instead of going to the gym, not to have that second cocktail, not to hit the snooze button again? The list could go on indefinitely.

This obstinance, when left unchecked, can literally become an addiction to being able to control what's happening in your life. But there's still more even beneath that.

How do you feel about people with a different opinions than you have? Are you open to conversation for understanding, or are you steadfast in your own lens.

Today, I'm sharing some perspective on perspective. It's been a game changer for me in my interpersonal relationships and has had an incredibly positive impact on my own general state of being. Let's dig in!

The behavior patterns we've used to keep ourself safe, can be reworked to propel us into doing the things we truly want to do.

If you want to help others, you have to help yourself first. That starts with rewiring your neural pathways with evidence-based actions so your predictive mind "sees" those activities or thoughts in a different way; only then will it begin to recognize them as a safe alternative to what its historically been doing, aka keeping you limited under the guess of "safety."

What's the antidote to fear? Curiosity!

In today's episode, I share my simple method to discover why you're holding yourself back, and how important it is to allow space for your own second chances. Grab your journal and get ready to uncover the excitement waiting within you!

How do you react when you've been hurt, either by someone else or, yourself? (ouch)

I heard Jim Carrey once say that when hurt, artists go inward and create a bouquet of roses. I didn't realize I do that 90% of the time. You might read that and think "How lovely," but I can tell you it doesn't always mean sunshine and rose petals.

It feels good when you can start building the bouquet, and seeing the beauty in the pain, and the lessons that spring out of it.

For me, the real beauty has been in seeing the way I've been uncovering my truest self from under the heaps of fertilizer I've been piling on top of myself my whole life, waiting for the flowers to blossom. My friends, sometimes you need to use less fertilizer to make your garden grow.

Have you ever been in it??? Of course you have.

I want to share with you the real reason you're in it --likely for the 2nd or maybe the 17th time-- and it might not be the reason you think.
