Episode 20: No Good Story Ever Started With a Salad

We’ve all heard the phrase… no good story ever started with a salad. But what if we’ve been trained to chase chaos, drama, and excitement… while overlooking the quiet things that actually build a good life?

In this episode, Stephie Kay unpacks why humans love fireworks, why wisdom often looks boring at first, and how consistency, peace, laughter, and healthy choices may be the real plot twists we’ve been missing. Funny, honest, and surprisingly deep—this one might change the way you look at your next salad… and your next decision.

Because some stories are wild to tell. Others are wise to live. 

Some advice barely registers…

and other words stay with us for years — shaping how we think, how we act, and who we become.

So what’s the difference?

In this episode, we talk about why certain advice lands — and why some of the most powerful truth in our lives is the stuff we almost ignored.

Because hearing something… is one thing.

Doing something with it? That’s what changes everything.

Online dating has changed everything… but has it made connection any easier?

In this episode, I sit down with Carol and Becca as they share their real experiences navigating dating apps — the good, the awkward, and the “what just happened?” moments.

We talk red flags, scams to watch for, and the lessons you only learn by actually living it.

Because matching is easy…

but connection? That’s a whole different story.

It started as a joke.

And for a minute… it was funny.

But then something shifted—and I couldn’t ignore it.

In this episode of You Stickin’ With That?, I share a real moment that had me asking:

At what point does “funny” stop feeling good?

We’re talking about pranks, boundaries, and that quiet voice inside that says, this isn’t it anymore.

Because sometimes we keep laughing…

not because it’s funny—

but because we don’t know how to be the one who stops it.

So where’s the line?

And more importantly…

why do we ignore it when we feel it?

Let’s talk about it.

Because understanding doesn’t happen by accident—

it happens when we make space to really hear.

Episode 16: Six Degrees Closer

What if the distance between us isn’t as big as it feels?

We’ve all heard of Six Degrees of Separation—the idea that we’re only a few connections away from anyone in the world. But what if that’s more than just a theory? What if it’s a reminder?

In this episode, we slow down and take a closer look at the people we don’t understand—the ones we disagree with, avoid, or have quietly written off. Because the truth is… we’re not as far from each other as we think.

Maybe it’s not about proving a point.

Maybe it’s about closing the gap.

Because understanding doesn’t happen by accident—it happens when we make space to really hear.

Episode 15: The Lesson That Left Me Stranded

Ran out of gas.

In a national forest.

In the dark.

45 minutes from help.

Not exactly how I planned the night.

But sometimes the moments that don’t go as planned

are the ones that stay with us the longest…

They change us.

They shape us.

They make us better.

Because the delay doesn’t mean you’re not still getting where you’re meant to go—

it might be exactly how you get there.

 You Stickin’ With That?

Talk that actually listens.

Episode 14: Believe in the Good

From California travel stories to the 4 C’s of a healthy relationship — Clarity, Communication, Compassion, and Consistency — plus a new reminder I’m trying out:

TOGO — Turn Off. Go Outside.

Like BOGO… only better.

Because sometimes the good we’re looking for is waiting right outside the door.

 You Stickin’ With That?

Wednesdays • 6:30 PM

Sometimes the most meaningful conversations start with the most random-ish thoughts. From dating experiences to exploring faith and the everyday moments that make us stop and think, today’s episode wanders through the small things and bigger questions that shape how we see life. It’s light, honest, and a little all over the place — but somewhere between random and intentional, there’s always something worth talking about.

Built for the Moment reflects on what pressure reveals — not just in elite athletes like Alysa Liu, but in everyday life. Drawing from years of coaching and the perspective of motherhood, this episode explores resilience, discipline, and the quiet strength built long before the moment arrives. Because growth isn’t about perfection — it’s about how we show up when it counts.

A real compass doesn’t fix where you are — it gives you one direction to follow until you feel steady again.

 The Focus Compass works the same way.

It's like giving your brain a fun job.

In this Episode, I show you how it works. This is for anyone who would like to ease their racing thoughts. Please pass it on.
