In this episode, my fiance (!!!) Chris and I sit down for a real-time conversation about stress testing relationships: what it looks like in real time, why it matters, and how strong partnerships are built because of pressure, not without it. We're opening up in real time about what happens when you add layers of complexity to a relationship (and in our case, integrating Chris into my business) and how that kind of transition exposes communication gaps, leadership blind spots, emotional responsibility, and implicit/silent expectations. This conversation applies far beyond romantic relationships. We break down how stress testing shows up in friendships, family dynamics, business partnerships, and teams, and why relationships that never experience conflict often aren't deep enough to grow. In this episode, we cover: What "stress testing" a relationship actually means Why conflict-free relationships often lack depth Emotional responsibility vs emotional dumping Task conflict vs personal conflict Emotional flexibility and regulation in partnerships Leadership differences in relationships and teams Explicit vs implicit social contracts Releasing control and building trust Why shared vision matters more than harmony How to stress-test relationships before the stakes are high For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

Discipline gets a bad reputation… especially among high-performing women who've experienced it as rigid, punishing, or all-or-nothing. In this episode, I break down why that definition is outdated and why true discipline is actually one of the most supportive, freedom-creating tools we can build in our lives. I share why relying on motivation and willpower keeps us stuck in cycles of pushing and burnout, and how discipline is not a personality trait you either have or don't have, it's a set of systems that can be designed, refined, and strengthened over time. We talk about: Why motivation and willpower are unreliable fuel sources How discipline functions like the "skeleton" of your life The link between discipline, self-trust, and identity How to design systems that make the right choices easier Using constraints and friction to support your goals instead of fighting them Why structure actually creates more freedom, not less How to audit your systems so they support your energy, creativity, and performance Whether you're working toward fitness goals, business growth, or simply a more grounded and intentional life, this episode will help you rethink discipline as something nurturing, sustainable, and deeply empowering.

In this episode, I'm talking to high-performing women who feel disconnected from their bodies… not just physically, but energetically and emotionally too. If you've gone months or years avoiding mirrors and photos, skipping workouts, ignoring hunger or fatigue cues, hiding in your clothes, or outsourcing your worth to the scale, this episode is for you. You're not broken, but you are checked out. And it's time to check back in. I walk you through a four-phase reconnection framework designed to help you gently and powerfully rebuild trust with your body without guilt, shame, or extreme overcorrection. This is about moving away from punishment and into partnership. I want you to become the woman who doesn't just look good, but actually feels good in her skin again. We talk about honesty without shame, why performative discipline keeps women stuck, how to rebuild safety through pace and structure, why micro-commitments matter more than massive overhauls, and how reclaiming your personal standards is the key to lasting confidence and embodiment. This episode is an invitation to reconnect, not by going backward, but by doing it better this time. In this episode, I cover: Why high-performing women disconnect from their bodies Honesty without shame vs guilt spirals Compassion and accountability Performative discipline vs embodied discipline Pace, ramping, and evaluation for sustainable change Why extreme resets and challenges fail Micro-commitments and rebuilding self-trust Reclaiming personal standards without punishment Choice points and self-leadership Moving from punishment to partnership with your body For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

In this episode, I'm talking directly to the woman who feels like she's lost herself somewhere along the way. If you've gone through a "soft girl era," burnout, or a season where rest quietly turned into stagnation… this conversation is for you. I unpack how high-performing women often overcorrect when they're exhausted, and how that pendulum swing can disconnect us from our drive, fire, and identity. I walk through the exact mental frameworks, identity questions, and personal audits I used to reconnect with my inner badass, without swinging back into hustle, burnout, or self-punishment. We talk about why excellence is earned, why balance is often the wrong goal, how to use strategic imbalance, and why wanting more does not make you vain, selfish, or wrong. This episode is an invitation to stop shrinking, stop numbing, and stop pretending you don't want the life you actually want, and to start living in alignment with the woman you know you're meant to be. In this episode, we cover: Why "soft girl era" can become a trap for high-performing women How burnout makes shrinking feel attractive The difference between rest and self-abandonment Why excellence is not an accident, it's lived How identity (not motivation) drives lasting change Using strategic imbalance instead of chasing balance Being productively self-critical without shame Why guilt around wanting more blocks growth How to ruthlessly protect your vision and desires Reconnecting with ambition, standards, and self-trust If this episode resonates, share it with a woman who's ready to stop playing small and start becoming "her" again.

In this episode, I'm talking directly to high-performing women who feel like their body is the one area of life that won't fall into place, no matter how disciplined or successful they are everywhere else. I see this pattern constantly: women who are crushing it in their careers, relationships, and personal standards, yet feel deep internal shame because their body doesn't reflect the level of excellence they hold themselves to. And the truth is — this isn't about laziness, lack of discipline, or "not wanting it badly enough." In this episode, I break down why high-achieving women so often struggle with fat loss and body composition, even when they're doing "all the right things," and what actually needs to change to fix it. We talk about metabolic adaptation from chronic under-eating, why effort without strategy backfires, how all-or-nothing thinking keeps women stuck, why your old fitness tools stop working as your life grows, and what it really means to reconnect with your body in a way that supports long-term performance. This is about moving out of punishment and into partnership with your body — and building a fitness identity that matches the standards you already live by everywhere else. In this episode, I cover: Why high-performing women often feel disconnected from their bodies Chronic under-eating, metabolic adaptation, and stalled fat loss Why strategy beats brute force in fitness All-or-nothing thinking and how it sabotages consistency Outgrowing old fitness tools as life responsibilities increase Nervous system regulation vs. performance avoidance What embodied self-leadership in fitness actually looks like For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

In this episode, I sit down with Lacey Newman for a grounded, honest conversation about what actually creates long-term success — in business, leadership, and life. We talk about discipline versus motivation, identity-based standards, and why so many high performers burn out chasing short-term wins instead of building something sustainable. Lacey shares her experience as a real estate professional, coach, speaker, and TV host, and how her definition of success has evolved as she's grown personally and professionally. This conversation is especially for anyone who feels tired of hustle culture but also knows they're meant for more — and wants to build a life that feels aligned, disciplined, and deeply fulfilling. In this episode, we cover: Why discipline beats motivation every time Identity and standards as the foundation of success Building consistency without burning out Leadership, responsibility, and self-trust Creating a life you don't need to escape from Lacey is a real estate professional, coach, speaker, and TV host who has built her career around leadership, discipline, and long-term thinking. What I really respect about Lacey is that she doesn't sell motivation or hustle for hustle's sake: she talks about responsibility, standards, and becoming the kind of person who can actually sustain success.

Most people don't fail. They don't crash and burn. They just stay the same without ever fully realizing it. In this end-of-year solo episode, I'm unpacking something most people don't want to look at: the hidden cost of staying exactly where you are, and why so many of us think we're changing while unconsciously playing it safe. We talk about the difference between performing change and embodying it, why setting goals alone doesn't actually transform your life, and how loyalty to a familiar identity can quietly keep you stuck for years. If you've been telling yourself: "I'll change when things slow down," "I just need to feel ready," or "It's not that bad," this episode is your invitation to pause and get radically honest. Because staying the same isn't neutral. It's already costing you: in energy, self-trust, and time. And the only real question is whether you're willing to stop confusing intention with transformation. This Episode Is For You If: You set goals every year but feel like nothing really shifts You're "doing the work" but still playing small or safe You're high-functioning, successful on paper, but internally restless You're ready to stop negotiating with yourself and raise your standards Fitness, health, and holistic wellness for $22/month Interested in a luxury 1:1 online health coaching experience?

In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Sarah Ballantyne for one of the most grounded, science-driven conversations I've had about nutrition in a long time. We talk about why diet culture keeps swinging between extremes, how nutrient density gets lost in food ideology, and what actually matters when it comes to protein, plants, gut health, and long-term health outcomes. Sarah breaks down why restrictive frameworks often backfire, how to evaluate food quality without fear, and what the research really says, not what performs best on social media. This conversation is for anyone who wants to eat in a way that supports performance, longevity, and metabolic health without turning food into a moral identity. We cover: Why nutrient density matters more than diet labels The dangers of nutrition dogma and "one right way" thinking Protein needs, plant foods, and dietary diversity Gut health, fiber, and microbial resilience How to evaluate nutrition advice critically Moving from restriction to sufficiency Dr. Sarah's Instagram Nutrivore 90 Challenge For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

This episode is a full end-of-year reflection and a practical blueprint for setting goals you actually complete. I'm sharing the exact shifts I made that helped me reach every major goal I set this year, feel more like myself again, close the loop on my goals, and build momentum without the scattered energy. I also give you the framework I'm using going into 2026: how I narrowed my goals down, increased focus and depth (instead of novelty), tightened my routines and boundaries, and invested in support early rather than waiting until I was in "red alert." And yes, there's a mini life update in here too: a record month in business, and the story of Chris and me getting ENGAGED!!

In this episode, I sat down with Thais Gibson, the founder of The Personal Development School and a true pioneer in attachment healing. We broke down the science behind anxious, avoidant, fearful, and secure attachment — what each one looks like, how it's formed, and how to heal and reprogram those patterns using neuroplasticity. We talked about how your attachment style is actually your relationship to yourself first, not just how you show up in love — and how to finally meet your own needs instead of chasing people to meet them for you. This is one of those episodes you'll want to take notes on — it's loaded with practical tools, from how to stop refeeding old wounds to how to build emotional safety within your nervous system. You'll hear us dive into: What attachment theory really means and why you aren't born with a style — it's conditioned. The six pillars of Integrated Attachment Theory. How to identify and rewire your core wounds through repetition and emotion. The real difference between self-soothing and self-numbing. The unique "superpowers" of each insecure attachment style. Tangible 21-day practices to start creating security from the inside out.

In this tandem episode, I'm unpacking a question posed by the viral Vogue article: "Is having a boyfriend embarrassing now?" We'll talk about the cultural shift that's made women feel like being in a healthy relationship somehow makes you weaker, less independent, or less "girlboss." I share how I've seen internet feminism swing too far into performative man-hating, why that still feels like centering men, and how to reclaim power, partnership, and sovereignty at the same time. I also open up about what it's looked like in my own life — from losing myself in unhealthy relationships, to re-rootingwho I am, and now finding myself in a relationship that's healthy, supportive, and expansive. This is a conversation about nuance, leadership, and emotional maturity, and about learning to build a life that's self-led and open to love if you want to pursue partnership. You'll hear: Why "decentering men" still secretly centers them How social media's "soft hate" toward partnership keeps women disconnected The difference between self-abandonment and healthy interdependence What true feminine sovereignty looks like inside a relationship How to build your identity so partnership is additive, not definitive For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

In this solo, I dig into the real difference between looking hot and "being her": the woman whose inner world and outer world actually match. I share why "aesthetic integrity" matters, how to spot performative confidence vs. the grounded kind, and what energetic congruence looks like in everyday choices (fitness, relationships, business, faith). You'll hear the three pillars I use to build embodied confidence, and practical prompts you can steal this week to move from performing to becoming. We dive into: The unpopular truth of living in a visual (and yes, aesthetic) world, and how to make that work for you (not against you). Aesthetic Integrity vs. "costumes": aligning how you present with who you really are. Energetic Congruence: why confidence = energy meeting your standards (not just your feed). Embodied Identity: acting like the woman you say you are before the world sees it. Simple prompts to collapse the gap between pretending and becoming, starting today. If this lands, share it with a bestie and tell me one thing you're doing this week from embodied confidence, not performance.

It's been a while since we had a good, old-fashioned, heart to heart. Today I'm sitting down and sharing an unfiltered list of things I struggle with day-to-day as a high performing women who genuinely wants to do, be, and have everything she can in life. From professional struggles to questioning my own femininity amidst ever-changing cultural narratives, I hope that in me ripping the lid off my own challenges, it gives you some grace and company in your own.

In this solo, I tell the real story behind my burnout and the pendulum swing that followed… girlbossing too close to the sun, soft-girling too close to the moon, and the grounded way I came back. I walk through the exact moments that broke me open (ADHD meds, record revenue paired with a personal low point, getting blindsided in business), why the spiritual detour didn't actually make my life better, and the simple, non-sexy habits that rebuilt my fire, my voice, and my results. You'll hear about my DRC formula (Drive, Recovery, Clarity) for managing energy, how I'm integrating softness without losing ambition, and the 14-day return-to-drive protocol you can start today. If you're a high-performer who lost her spark, or you're scared success = burnout, this episode is your bridge back. Topics: The 2022 scale-up that led to record revenue…and a deeper personal crash Why I define burnout as misallocated energy (and how to rebalance with DRC) The spiritual season I had to question, detach from, and redefine Returning to intensity through fitness and focused work Boundaries that actually protect your ambition (Slack hours, one day offline) The 14-day protocol: training, protein/fiber, sleep, focus blocks, spiritual stillness Narrowing my message to increase impact and income • • Rebuilding with A-players at work and at home For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

In this solo, I get real about the gap between who we say we want to be and how we're actually showing up. I walk you through my "mirror test" to evaluate your career, relationships, and self-leadership with radical honesty. We dig into what makes a woman truly promotable (before anyone gives her the title), why doing only what's in your job description won't move you up, and how to stop begging for outcomes you haven't built the habits to earn. If you're ready to become the woman you would hire, promote, date, and follow… this one will light a fire and give you a framework to act on it today. You'll learn: The exact questions I use to audit my professional standards, and why leadership begins long before the title. Why "doing your job" isn't grounds for elevation, and how initiatives and outcomes set you apart. The relationship litmus test: Would you date you? and how self-talk shapes who you attract. The mindset shift from "deserving" to earning, and why worthiness ≠ entitlement. How to visualize, then micro-act like your next-level self without burning your life down.

In this solo episode, I'm sharing the six subtle habits that I've seen across every high performer I've ever met — the people who not only rise to the top, but stay there. These aren't the big, flashy routines or five-figure mastermind secrets; they're the micro behaviors that create massive separation over time. These are the daily moves that make you magnetic, respected, and unstoppable. I'm also breaking down how to increase your risk tolerance, why structure equals freedom, and how your energy can influence every space you walk into. If you're serious about embodying excellence in your career, your fitness, or your relationships , this one's a masterclass in becoming the kind of person who simply wins differently. We dig into Six subtle habits shared by the world's top performers Why "structure is freedom" and how to create it in your day The link between discomfort and growth (and how to train it) Closing the gap between idea and action, and why overthinking kills momentum The power of personal presentation and energetic influence Why risk tolerance builds self-trust, and how to cultivate it • • The difference between high performance that lasts and high performance that burns out

If you've been craving a reset without burning your entire life down to start over…this one's for you.

In today's episode of EMBody Radio, I sit down with Scarlett Leung — a powerhouse operator and entrepreneur who has scaled businesses from scratch to over $600 million in revenue. Scarlett brings a rare balance of creative vision and business logic, and in this conversation we break down the real skills and mindset shifts required to build at the highest levels. We dig into what it actually takes to grow a company beyond the startup phase, the realities of leadership, and why blending creativity with discipline is the ultimate entrepreneurial advantage. Whether you're just starting your journey or scaling past 7+ figures, this episode will light a fire under you. What You'll Hear in This Episode: Scarlett's journey from CPA to scaling businesses to $600M+ in revenue The hardest transitions in growth: why the leap from $500M to $1B is the steepest The essential business/logical skills every entrepreneur should cultivate (finance, ops, HR, ecom) Why creative intuition is equally critical, and how Scarlett balances both sides The danger of staying loyal to team members who can't scale with the business How to hire and assess talent at each stage of growth The role of grit, adaptability, and willingness to learn in long-term success Cross-functional leadership: why marketing, supply chain, and finance must all communicate Scarlett's reflections on community, connection, and creating opportunities for collaboration Why You Should Listen Think like a $600M operator — learn what separates hobbyist entrepreneurs from leaders who scale into the hundreds of millions. Spot your own ceiling — understand when you might be the bottleneck, and how to bring in the right people to take your business higher. Balance logic with creativity — discover why finance, ops, and HR matter just as much as vision, innovation, and connection.

In this solo episode, I get real about mediocrity… why it's sneaky, why it sounds like a "reasonable compromise," and how it steals your future. I break down the Excellence Spectrum (below average → average/baseline → excellence), show you how to spot self-negotiation in real time, and give you practical tools to "negotiate up," set standards and boundaries, and run the Excellence Equation: (standards + consistency + integrity), over time. We'll rate core life areas (fitness, career/finances, relationships, spiritual health), pick one standard to raise this week, and use micro-upgrades to create macro transformation. If you're ready to stop tolerating average and become magnetic to excellence, this one's for you. Download, share, and let's raise the bar today.

Today I'm breaking down why a silence and solitude practice is essential in a world drowning in inputs. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, confused, and unclear trying to navigate everyone else's opinions, constantly scrolling, or defaulting to what you're "supposed to" think and do, this one's for you. I walk you through how I structure true silence (no music, no phone, no podcasts), my favorite timing windows, and a simple way to use inquiry prompts so you're not just "sitting there," you're actually sharpening discernment. We talk about starting small, embracing pauses, being okay leaving without a final answer, and learning to balance emotion with logic so you can find your truth instead of rushing to the most convenient conclusion. You'll leave with a practical framework to follow the thread with curiosity, regulate your inner world, and move through life more solid and self-led…online and IRL.
