    The Invisible Weight

    In this episode, Darryn Lewis and I talk about the invisible weight of being the oldest, the leader, the athlete — the one expected to hold it together. We explore how those early roles shape the adults we become, and what it costs to always be the strong one.

    Confident, Not Cocky

    Gina Gonzalez-Iwakiri and I talk about what real confidence feels like — and how it’s different from cockiness. We explore losing it, rebuilding it, and learning to walk into a room without shrinking. Are you an extrovert or introvert? Or, a lot/little of both?

    When the World Gets Loud

    In this episode, I talk about the quiet ways we disappear — into isolation, into our phones, into endless scrolling that feels comforting but leaves us more anxious than before. We explore how doomscrolling tricks us into thinking we’re coping, what it’s actually doing to our nervous system, and gentle ways to come back to ourselves, our bodies, and real connection in a loud, overwhelming world.

    softness in a loud time

    In this first episode of the new year, I talk about choosing softness in a world that feels loud, heavy, and overwhelming. This isn’t about ignoring what’s happening — it’s about finding small moments of joy, grounding, and honesty that help us keep going. A gentle start for anyone who’s trying to stay open-hearted without burning out.

    The First Wave: Losing My Brother Jimmy

    Almost a year after losing my brother, we received the call that charges had finally been filed. Sitting in a courtroom, facing the person responsible, became the moment that pulled me backward into everything we hadn’t yet said out loud.

    Healing Hyper-Independence

    I didn’t choose independence—I needed it. In this episode, I talk about how hyper-independence formed as protection, the loneliness that came with it, and the quiet work of learning how to receive support.

    Where do you live the most — the past, the present, or the future?

    Do you find your body living in the past and your mind racing toward the future? In this episode, I explore trauma, mindfulness, and the search for small moments of calm — the sunsets, pauses, and reflections that gently bring us back to the present.
