In this episode, How to Regulate Your Emotions and Get Back to Baseline, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing what it’s really like to be in the middle of my own growth curve — navigating challenges, learning ads, and showing up for the future I want even when it’s uncomfortable. I don’t have a massive ad budget. I don’t have a marketing team. What I do have is a deep commitment to regulating myself, leading myself, and continuing to choose growth over comfort — and I hope this conversati...
In this episode, I’m talking about the hard truth most of us don’t want to face: what we don’t heal from, we will keep attracting—again and again. When we’re frustrated with the results we’re getting, it’s not just life “happening to us.” It’s often our unhealed patterns quietly calling the shots. I’m breaking down how both our conscious and subconscious create our reality—and why the lessons we resist the most are often the ones life keeps putting in front of us until we choose to change wha...
When Self-Sabotage Shows Up… You’re Closer Than You Think Self-sabotage isn’t proof that you’re lazy, unmotivated, or failing. It’s actually proof that you’re standing at the edge of your next level. That’s why it shows up when things are about to shift. Right before the promotion. Right before the deeper relationship. Right before the change you’ve been craving. Your brain thinks it’s protecting you. But what it’s really doing is keeping you stuck/small. In this episode, we...
Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “What’s the point? I’ve tried before and it never works anyway”? That quiet thought is more powerful than most people realize. It’s what psychologists call learned helplessness—when repeated disappointments convince your brain that your effort doesn’t matter. And here’s the thing: it doesn’t just live in the “big” areas. It sneaks into your relationships when you stop asking for what you need. It shows up in your career when you don’t go after opportuni...

You know that weird kind of tired that has nothing to do with how much sleep you got? That’s what we’re talking about today. In this episode, we’re digging into energetic labor...all the invisible emotional effort, managing, micromanaging, overthinking, and shape-shifting you do without even realizing it.

There’s a difference between being self-aware—and being self-stuck. In this episode, I’m talking about the fine line between relating to your struggles and building your entire identity around them. Mental health awareness is powerful and necessary—but when the memes, the labels, and the constant self-diagnosing become your main personality trait, it can quietly keep you from actually moving forward. We’ll explore: – Why over-identifying with your struggles can feel safe—but keep you st...
