    Ep. 175: When Staying Is Harder Than Leaving

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I’m talking about something I had to face myself this week—why it’s so hard to do what we know is right for us… and why we still avoid it. I share a few personal decisions I’ve been putting off for far too long and the real reason behind it—it wasn’t confusion. It was discomfort. If you’ve ever stayed in a commitment that no longer fits, struggled to say no, or felt stuck even though you know what to do… this episode is for you. We’ll walk through the hidden reasons we stay, the cost of not making a decision, and a simple way to get honest with yourself so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. Because sometimes the next step isn’t about figuring it out…  it’s about finally acting on what you already know.

    Ep. 174: Life Didn’t Go Back to Normal… Here’s What I Did Instead

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when life gets thrown off… and it doesn’t go back to normal? In this episode, I’m talking about what it really looks like when you’re not fully “back on track”—and how to stay connected to yourself anyway. Because the truth is, sometimes the hardest part isn’t the interruption.  It’s accepting that life keeps moving, even when things feel different. I share:  Why we crave going back to our old routines (and why that can keep us stuck)  How to stop waiting for things to feel “normal” again  What it actually means to stay connected to yourself in a new season  And how to move forward without needing everything to feel perfect If you’ve been feeling off, out of rhythm, or like you’re not quite yourself lately… this episode is for you. You don’t need to be fully back on track.  You just need to stay connected to what matters.

    Ep.173: When Life Interrupts Your Routine (Now What?)

    Send us Fan Mail There are moments in life when everything feels like it’s finally working… and then suddenly, something interrupts it all. That’s exactly what happened to me this week. In this episode, I’m sharing what it looks like to navigate an unexpected setback—when your routine gets disrupted, your momentum is gone, and you feel completely thrown off. I talk about:  Why it’s not just about the situation—it’s about what it represents (structure, identity, control)  The all-or-nothing thinking that can quietly derail us  How I’m shifting from “everything is ruined” to “what’s still possible”  Why the goal isn’t to stop… it’s to adjust If you’ve ever felt like one interruption knocked you completely off track, this episode is for you. Because not everything that slows you down is setting you back. You’re not starting over—you’re just finding a new way forward.

    Ep. 172: Overwhelmed? This Is How to Decide What Matters

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something we all struggle with at different times: How do you prioritize when everything feels important? Because it’s not always about having nothing to do—it’s about having too much to do, and all of it feels like it matters. I share a real example of how I recently spent hours avoiding what I actually needed to do… because I followed what felt more exciting in the moment. And it made me realize something important: Overwhelm isn’t a time problem—it’s an emotional one. One of the biggest shifts? Not everything that matters needs your attention right now. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start, this episode will help you create clarity—and move forward with more focus and less stress. 🎙 Let me know in the comments:  What’s one thing you know belongs in your “not now” list right now?

    Ep.171: Embracing The Beginner Within You

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about what it really feels like to be a beginner again—and why it’s so much harder than we expect. Lately, I’ve found myself starting from scratch in a few areas of my life—learning Mahjong and writing a children’s picture book—and it’s brought up something I think we don’t talk about enough: Being a beginner is uncomfortable. As adults, we’re used to feeling competent.  We stick to what we know.  We avoid situations where we might look inexperienced or unsure. But growth doesn’t happen there. In this episode, I share: • What it actually feels like to start something new  • Why we resist being beginners (even when we want to grow)  • The stories we tell ourselves that hold us back  • Why most people quit too early  • How to stay with something long enough to see progress One of the biggest takeaways? Not knowing what you’re doing isn’t a sign to stop—it’s a sign that you’re growing. If you’ve been thinking about trying something new, or you’re in that uncomfortable phase where nothing feels easy yet, this episode will help you reframe what’s happening—and keep going. 🎙 Let me know in the comments:  What’s something new you’ve been wanting to try… but haven’t started yet?

    Ep. 170: The 5 Stages of Perseverance No One Talks About

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something we all think we understand — perseverance — but may not fully recognize in our own lives. Because perseverance doesn’t always look the way we expect it to. We imagine it as those big, powerful moments where everything clicks and we push through and succeed. But in real life? It’s much quieter than that. Lately, I’ve been working through a bit of a funk in my business — struggling with motivation, questioning things, and feeling resistance in areas that used to feel easier. At the same time, I’ve been learning something completely new (Mahjong), and it showed me a different side of perseverance — one that includes frustration, slow progress, and learning curves. If you’ve been feeling stuck, unmotivated, or questioning yourself lately, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening — and how to keep moving forward. 🎙 Let me know in the comments:  Where are you in your journey right now — and what does perseverance look like for you?

    Ep. 169: 5 Signs You're in A Funk (and how to get your momentum back!)

    Send us Fan Mail You know the feeling. Nothing is terribly wrong in your life… but everything just feels a little harder than it should. Tasks feel heavier, motivation disappears, and you start questioning everything you're doing. Lately, I’ve been feeling this way myself — with my exercise routine, my creative work, and even the behind-the-scenes work of podcasting, writing, and speaking. Instead of pretending it isn’t happening, I decided to talk about it. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that momentum usually comes after action — not before it. You don’t need a huge breakthrough to get unstuck. Sometimes you just need one small step forward. If you’ve been feeling a little stuck lately, this conversation is for you. 🎙 Listen to the full episode and let me know: What’s one small step you can take today?

    Ep. 168: Rewriting The Story of Your Life

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something that quietly shapes our lives — the stories we tell ourselves. For many years, I believed the thoughts running through my mind were simply facts. I told myself things like “this is just the way my life is” and never stopped to question them. But the truth is, many of the beliefs that keep us stuck aren’t facts at all. They’re stories we’ve been repeating for years — sometimes since childhood. In this episode, I share: How limiting stories become self-fulfilling propheciesThe powerful concept of E + R = O (Event + Response = Outcome)How past experiences and comments from others can shape the way we see ourselvesA simple way to start questioning the beliefs that may be holding you backThe moment we question the story, we create space for a new one. And sometimes that’s where real change begins. If you’ve ever felt like it’s too late, you missed your chance, or life “just is the way it is,” this conversation is for you.
