As I recorded this episode, the Sonoma County fires of 2019 were happening--and I live in Sonoma County, approximately 20 miles from the initial origin of the fires. I wanted to share an episode on dealing with difficult situations and use challenging circumstances such as these fires and how they have impacted myself and my community, to highlight ways of handling difficult situations.

It’s common self-help advice that “you are the aggregate of the five people you spend time with” or to simply “let go” of people who are “toxic”--but is this way of being profoundly dehumanizing? In this podcast episode, I respond to a listener request to talk about choosing who you surround yourself with and how those people have an impact on your well-being. If you’ve felt conflicted about how to figure out who the people are who are your truest friends, and if you’ve been uncertain about how to effect change in your relationships, this episode is for you.

Whether you have trouble trusting your intuition, or feel like you’ve got intuition on lock but could always use a few more insights, today’s podcast episode on learning to trust your intuition will break down some of the essential components.

How do you know the difference between excitement and fear? How do you tell the difference between a “red flag” and needing to stretch into something outside your comfort zone? That’s what we’re talking about, today. 

Are you ready to transform your life and start trusting your intuition like never before? In this podcast episode, I share a personal story that taught me the invaluable skill of somatic awareness – the ability to decipher the sensations in your body to guide your decision-making.

We all have those moments when we look back and realize we should have listened to our intuition. That relationship, that job, that opportunity – we've all been there. But what if those experiences were the key to unlocking your intuition's power? I invite you to join me in a journey of self-discovery as we dissect those pivotal moments in your life, the ones that left you questioning your choices.

Through reflection and self-compassion, you'll learn to differentiate between the fear that safeguards you and the fear that keeps you stuck. This journey isn't about perfection; it's about progress and growth. So let's delve into the wisdom your body holds and start living a life guided by your intuition. Trust me; the possibilities are endless.

Do you have trouble recognizing self-sabotage? That’s something of a trick question, because we typically only recognize self-sabotage in hindsight.

We’re getting real about shiny object syndrome, taking two steps forward and one step back, and how to finish what you start.

If you (like me) grew up without an athletic background and have never particularly liked going to a gym, and if you (like me) have ever struggled with creating consistent eating habits, this episode will resonate on many levels. While long, definitely listen all the way to the end so that you can get the benefits of all the different threads coming together--the takeaways for how you can apply these ideas to your own life are everywhere. Courageous wellness and empowering your body is not about the “thin ideal” or a “clean” diet. It’s about something much richer.

It’s time to take action now - no more waiting. You deserve more. You deserve better than the b.s. lies of “It’s not the right time” or “But I’m not the kind of person who…” People who go after what they want and take action now are not people who have it all figured out, all the resources, all the time, all the connections, all the abilities. Those things are helpful, but they are not a prerequisite for you to feel the pride of going after what you most desire. (Oh, and? The existentialist in me wants to point out that we’re all going to...die. So, like, we actually don’t have time to waste hemming and hawing about “Gee, I dunno, I don’t know if I’m ready…”). If there’s anything in your life that you’ve been hesitating around taking action on or any dream you’ve been waiting to realize, see this podcast coming across your radar as the flashing neon sign from the Universe that it’s time to take action now - no more waiting.
