Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all. It unlocks any door and makes every goal achievable. A more effective, realistic approach starts here.

    1352: When Trying Doesn’t Work: The Real Reason You Stay Stuck

    You’re not broken. You’re not lazy. But you might be stuck in a loop of trying the same things over and over — even when they’ve never worked. In this episode, I’m diving deep into learned helplessness: why you feel like nothing works, how your brain tricks you into repeating the past, and what you can do to finally break free. We’ll unpack: Why recycling effort isn’t the same as solving the problem How you’ve been overemphasizing options and underemphasizing choice The trap of only considering what you’ve already tried The epidemic of passive consumption (and why it’s costing you your ability to think) This is a wake-up call and a relief — because once you see the loop, you can step out of it. 💥 Ready to break the cycle and rebuild from a place of strength? The 8-week DEFENSE program is where we change your operating system — so you stop defaulting to what’s familiar and start acting from clarity, strength, and self-trust. 🛡️ Apply now for DEFENSE at this link.

    1351: The Real Problem Isn’t the One You’re Focused On

    What if procrastination isn’t the real problem? What if what you see — the delay, the excuses, the inconsistency — is just smoke… and the real fire is underneath? In today’s episode, I’m walking you through a real conversation I had with a client in DEFENSE, where we uncovered the truth behind her procrastination — and it wasn’t time management. It wasn’t planning. It was belief. Identity. A narrow picture of what change had to look like… that she didn’t even want to live. We talk about: Why solving surface problems doesn’t lead to lasting change How “diet food” and “I don’t like exercise” become unconscious blocks What to do when you tell yourself “I’m just not worthy” Why you don’t need to be addicted to your comfort zone anymore 👉🏼 This is exactly the kind of work we do in DEFENSE. Applications just opened to the waitlist. Spots are extremely limited - only 20 are available. We spend 8 weeks together, and you’ll leave with a 50+ page custom strategy guide tailored to you. No templates. No one-size-fits-all. Just transformation, built around your life. Apply at this link

    1350: You Asked For It - Faith, Fear & Family

    I’ve been asked about this multiple times, so here we go. Today’s episode is a little different. It’s personal. It’s about my faith. You don’t have to agree with me, in fact, I think it might be most valuable to listen if you don’t. Because this isn’t about convincing anyone. It’s about sharing how my faith impacts the way I experience fear, anxiety, the world around me, and how I lead my family. I’m not a theologian. I’m not here to debate doctrine. I’m just here to tell the truth about what’s changed for me and how that plays out in real life. Whether you’ve been curious about my faith journey or you’re just struggling to stay grounded in a chaotic world, I hope this meets you right where you are.

    1348: From My House To Yours

    This episode is a mix of practical strategies and personal philosophy, pulled straight from your questions about how I run my home and raise my kids — while still prioritizing consistency, growth, and sanity. Here’s what we cover: ✅ Why I don’t pick up after my kids — and what that has to do with leadership, growth, and long-term habits ✅ What I really want to instill in my kids (hint: it’s way deeper than manners or obedience) ✅ The power of “restraint + kindness” — and how that’s redefining the way I see mercy ✅ How I work to avoid helicopter parenting (even when I really want to intervene) ✅ Easy, healthy meal ideas for busy moms (or anyone who doesn’t want to live in the kitchen) ✅ My personal food strategy: “Dinner once, lunch twice” ✅ How to keep food and parenting simple — but effective

    1347: The Whole Truth (and Nothing But the Truth)

    We’re quick to spot the truth in other people’s choices: “If he would just manage his time better…” “If she’d finish one thing before starting the next…” But when it comes to our own patterns? The truth feels harder to see — and even harder to admit. In this episode, I’m digging into the critical practice of telling yourself the truth — the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Because the stories we tell ourselves don’t have to be true to shape our lives. They just have to go unopposed. You’ll hear: Why it’s easier to analyze their problems than to face our own How “permissive phrases” like “I’ll start tomorrow” or “I need this to take the edge off” quietly run the show A client story that shows exactly how to challenge vague justifications and uncover the truth The difference between evaluation (judging yourself) and coaching (creating a way forward) A simple 3-step challenge to practice radical honesty and break free from excuses and procrastination If you’ve ever wondered why you keep starting over, why you feel stuck in cycles of “I’ll do better tomorrow,” or why it’s so much easier to see solutions for other people than for yourself — this episode will be a game-changer. ✨ Your breakthrough is on the other side of one question: “What’s the truth here?”

    The Red Pen: Why Your Plans Always Fall Apart You’ve been here before: the shiny new plan, the clean fridge, the big motivation… and then life gets lifey. Pizza at the work meeting, a missed workout, one “I already blew it” moment — and suddenly the whole thing unravels. It’s not that your plan was bad. It’s that your plan had no defense.

Here’s what you’ll learn: The three biggest “red circles” that sabotage your progress every time Why chasing a perfect 9 or 10 keeps you stuck at zero How Defense gives you a playbook for the moments when life gets messy If you’re tired of doing and undoing the same work, it’s time for a different approach. 👉 Our next Defense cohort opens soon.
