January 1st can feel heavy. It comes with expectations to reset, restart, and do things differently, even when it doesn’t necessarily align with how some of us actually experience time and growth.
In this episode, I explore why January can feel disconnecting, especially for those who don’t relate to the traditional “new year” energy. We talk about letting go of pressure, tuning into what you actually need, and choosing a more grounded, compassionate way to move forward.
If January feels off or pressured for you, this conversation is for you.
This episode explores the shift from living life out of obligation to living from choice. We look at how often we tell ourselves “I have to” in business, family, and daily life, and how that language quietly creates pressure and resentment. By reconnecting to choice, we reclaim agency, align our actions with our values, and design a life that actually works for us. Freedom does not come from doing less, but from choosing with intention, again and again.
In this episode, I share a personal moment that reminded me how powerful a simple pause can be. One of my kids was overwhelmed and sobbing, and my first instinct was to judge the reaction as disproportionate. Instead of responding from that place, I chose to stay quiet, give space, and return later with calm and empathy. It was a reminder that our first thoughts are not always the ones that serve us or the people we love. Pausing helps us choose intentional thoughts that strengthen connection, support emotional regulation, and move us forward with clarity.
Even the most wonderful seasons can feel hard in the moment. Renovating a home, going on a family trip, or navigating a big transition can bring joy and chaos at the same time. In this episode, I explore how to rediscover joy right in the middle of the mess - not after it’s all over. Through honest reflection and practical mindset shifts, you’ll learn how to pause, notice what’s good, and find calm and connection even when things feel imperfect. Because joy isn’t something we wait for - it’s something we practice, one mindful moment at a time.
In this episode I talk about the moment you realize something in your life no longer fits and the process of finally choosing to change it. I share our bathroom renovation journey as a metaphor for personal growth. From noticing small frustrations, to making the decision, to feeling overwhelmed by options, getting support, breaking it down, and taking one step at a time.
Real change rarely happens all at once. It begins with awareness, grows through action, and becomes real when you keep showing up. If you are sensing a shift in your life, this episode will help you trust the process and take the first step.
In this episode, I invite you to slow down and truly listen to your body - not with judgment, but with curiosity and compassion. From fatigue and cravings to tension and restlessness, our bodies are constantly sending messages about what we need. Through simple, practical steps and mindset shifts, you’ll learn how to tune in before those whispers turn into shouts, and how to build a kinder, more trusting relationship with yourself.
As the chagim (holidays) fade and routines return, many of us feel a mix of relief, fatigue, and resistance. In this episode, I talk about how to transition from the high energy of the holidays to the steady rhythm of fall - with mindset shifts, simple strategies, and gentle self-compassion.

This episode was inspired by an interview that I heard from Cal Newport. He talks about the importance of limiting our distractions so that we can do “deep work” and get things done faster and with less mental energy. I struggle in this area and I imagine many of you do too. In this episode, I offer some practical strategies on how you can improve your focus and reduce distractions. So let’s all start small and give our undivided attention to one thing that matters this week!
This episode is airing after a two month-hiatus. I explain how my routines fell by the wayside this summer, and why they are so important. If you feel like you too have gotten off track with some important routines, then this episode is exactly what you need to get motivated! Your routines shape who you are becoming, one small action at a time. Today is the day to start or re-start!
This episode is all about the importance of taking a break - not when we are at empty, but when we are at a quarter of a tank. I talk about my own evolution in terms of taking time off and why it is so important for our growth and well-being.
This is the final episode before I break for the summer. The next one will be aired mid-August!
In this celebratory episode I take you down memory lane and extract 10 meaningful lessons from the previous 99 episodes. I also offer a vulnerable “behind the scenes” perspective on creating this podcast and what it takes to keep it running.
Here is to another 100 episodes!
This episode is all about my decision to walk away from social media and all the reasons why. I emphasize why this was the right decision for ME and encourage my listeners to consider things in their lives that maybe served them in the past, but no longer serve them.
In this episode I talk about how consistency is boring (and that is ok!), and I offer a bunch of different tips and strategies on how to improve discipline and consistency in different areas of your life. This episode was inspired by a specific coaching session, but I think it is applicable to so many of us!
This episode is all about the importance of caring for ourselves on a daily basis. Not big, grandiose acts of self care, but small intentional habits that we do on a consistent basis - acts of self care that can improve our emotional and physical well-being. I encourage my listeners to start small, to choose one act of self care TODAY and then repeat it day after day. Because when you care for yourself, you don’t just feel better - you live better.
This episode is all about this important question. It is an opportunity to shift from spiraling to opportunity. This question invites us to reclaim our choices and choose the next step. It brings clarity in a place of uncertainty.

In this episode I talk about the importance of gratitude. When we pause to acknowledge someone’s act of kindness, we breathe significance into what might have felt mundane or forgotten When we take the time to name the good, we multiply it - not just for others, but for ourselves. I assure you that when you tune in, you will feel more grateful today!
This episode is all about this common sneaky thought that can often lead to overwhelm and feeling stuck. The trick is to identify the thought when it surfaces, calm our nervous system and then take action. We need to remind ourselves that we are capable of catching up! Tune in to learn more about this important topic. And be sure to check out episode 35 “You are Right on Time” that tackles this topic from another angle.
In this episode I share an experience where I had a realization that I living my “dream life.” I explain what that means. Spoiler Alert - what it doesn’t mean is a life void of struggles and challenges. A “dream life” is a life where you are fully present and mindful, and able to enjoy all your gifts and blessings despite all the hard stuff!
