If you feel like you're dying... maybe you are. And maybe, it's not such a bad thing. In this episode, lean into dying to who you are today so that you can be re-born into your Next Level Self. Leveling up, growth-- it's what we all want, but it's uncomfortable and scary AF. That's because in order to grow into that next level, we can't bring who we are today. We must die to our current Self in order to become our future Self.  So, if like me, you've been feeling the whole gambit of emotions: fear, anxiety, doubt, anger, sadness, but also excitement and intrigue-- maybe... you're dying. And maybe this "death of self" is a good thing.  Please rate & review the podcast wherever you're listening!

One of the coolest interviews I've ever done-- not just because it's with one of my best friends, Sam Morris-- but because of the depth & vastness of the conversation. THIS IS NOT just an episode for moms. We talk about SO MUCH more, and I know any female will resonate with so much of what we say. In this episode, we cover: life as a new mom- the stuff you don't post on instagram navigating life as a friend of a new mom- how to support, what to say & what new moms need miscarriage & post-partum anxiety how your college major isn't always your "career path" switching from a day job to full-time entrepreneur confidence, health & true happiness when you're a "bigger" girl  I love this episode because there’s a lot of stuff here I don't personally identify with (because I can’t) but we talk about what it looks like to be there for someone even when you don't understand. I'm also excited to bring a perspective different than my own and connect with women who may not resonate with me personally. I have no doubt any woman who listens will be able to find herself in this episode and say "Me too. I've been there."  Sam is a natural when it comes to sharing heavy stuff in a relatable and open way. Come laugh with us, learn with us, and get real with us.

Check out this quick preview clip with snippets from the full episode, episode 29. What is body image? Why does it matter?

How you feel about the way you look is probably more important than you realize.  As a women's body image coach + personal trainer, I believe how we think about our bodies & our appearance actually impacts our whole lives, and I don't think we talk about this enough. In this solo episode, I get into: what the heck "body image" even is why I feel so strongly about addressing it what I want every man to take away from this conversation why I sometimes feel guilty for my work how feeling poorly about your body causes you to suffer in every arena of your life why caring about how you look is not superficial at all I'm super passionate about what I do, but I think it can get misconstrued and misunderstood. I wanted to sit down and talk through my beliefs around body image + confidence and why I think it's absolutely critical that we--women in particular-- devote time, energy + resources to developing a positive relationship with our appearance. This episode is NOT just for women. My hope is that men will listen to this and that women will share it with the men in their lives so we can all start talking about how our body image and the way we think we look is influencing us every single day in everything we do.

Another quick, "spoken-poetry-style" episode where I express how all of the weird, random things in my life have seemed to come full circle and lead me to the work I do today.  In this episode, I'm reading an original writing explaining my work and why I believe it matters. I talk about why I'm so passionate about body image + why I think the way we think about our bodies is such a big deal.  This episode feels inspirational, uplifting, powerful and so special to me because it has been a long time coming for things to "make sense" in small, odd ways. Give this episode a listen & stay tuned for the next one where I talk a little more freely and less poetically about why I'm so passionate about my message.
