  • Words Are Powerful. Use Them For Good.

    Do you ever stop to think about the energy behind your words? Are you mindful of the language you use with your family and friends, the barista at Starbucks, or even the repairman who’s fixing your sink? Words are our most powerful weapon. When used carefully, we can use them to lift up the people around us and potentially shift the course of someone’s life. But, in order to do this, we must first use words to champion ourselves. It is then that we can truly harness all the beauty and power that words hold and begin using them for good.


    In this episode of XTRA:

    • Being mindful of the power of words
    • Some stories highlighting how words can be hurtful
    • The beauty in the fact that the right words can change someone’s experience

  • Living In a State of Emergency & How to Lessen It

    Do you wake up every morning in a state of emergency? Ready for the worst of the worst, prepared to save the world and everyone in it? Some of us feel this more than others, but, the truth is, we’ve all been here before.

No matter how intense the situation, it too shall pass.

  • The Death of Small Talk & An Invitation to More

    When we hear the phrase ‘small talk’, it often elicits an emotional response. Your eyes may sink back into the back of your head, thinking about awkward conversations in line at the grocery store.

But what if we saw small talk as an opportunity, or the proverbial foot in the door for genuine human connection? In this episode, Christina shows us why not to dread small talk and gives an example of how small talk can quickly evolve into thought-provoking conversation.



    In this episode of XTRA:

    • How small talk can be an invitation for more

  • Are You a Rescuer? How to Stop Saving People

    This may be hard for some of us to hear, but people don’t need you to rescue them. They need you to listen, love, support and encourage them, but you’re not doing them, or yourself, any favors by constantly stepping in whenever you see them experiencing adversity. We think we’re being helpful, but we’re often robbing people of their own experience to feel good about themselves. We are all wildly capable, so let’s not strip ourselves, or anyone else, from figuring that out.



    In this episode of XTRA:

    • What does it mean to be a rescuer?
    • The story of the rusty apple cutter
    • Why we can never really save anyone
    • Things to try when you feel the urge to rescue
