    32. Stop Questioning Yourself Out of Taking Action - The Life You Want REQUIRES That You Show Up For It

    The life that you want/desire requires that you show up for it with actions, or else it CANNOT show up for you. This week on Blowing The Lid, I’m diving into a pattern so many of us fall into without realizing it: questioning ourselves out of our own dreams. I break down the difference between helpful clarifying questions and the endless loop of overthinking that keeps you from taking action. I share my personal experience with staying in “strategy mode” for years, and how shifting into movement — even when I didn’t have all the answers — completely changed my confidence, my joy, and my momentum. You’ll hear me talk about: How over-questioning becomes self-sabotage Why answers show up after you start, not before What happens when you stop delaying and finally take the next step How to know when you’ve planned enough Why your dreams can’t leave the paper without you The synchronicities that confirm you're on the right path If you’ve ever felt stuck between your desire and your action, this episode will help you reconnect with your power to begin. Perfect for listeners searching for:personal development podcast, self-growth motivation, confidence building, stop overthinking, take action, women’s personal growth, mindset coaching, becoming your best self.

    31. What To Do When You're In The Space Between Who You Are Now, Who You're Becoming & What You're Creating

    In this episode of Blowing The Lid, I take you behind the scenes of what has been unfolding in my life lately — the manifestation, the miracles, the chaos, the becoming, and the unexpected assignment that changed everything. It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve released an episode, not because I haven’t wanted to, but because life has been lifing in the most beautiful, wild, divinely orchestrated ways. And today, I’m sharing exactly what it has looked like for me to build the life I desire while also living it at the same time. Because manifestation isn’t about sitting around waiting. It’s about living, trusting, moving, and acting on the pings God gives you. How I went from planning a full “rest day” to being divinely redirected into feeding 10 families in my community The moment I heard God say, “You’re not spending your money — you’re spending mine,” and how that shifted everything How a Shipt shopper named Angel confirmed I was exactly where I was meant to be The importance of trusting your intuition the moment it speaks — not after you’ve overthought it Why becoming the woman who can “hold the room” had to happen before I could host my first live podcast event What I learned from hosting my first live Blowing the Lid Podcast with 15 incredible women How timing, trust, and self-belief shape the version of you you’re growing into Why the downloads you receive require patience, courage, and action — not perfection I created this episode because so many of us struggle with the in-between — the space between who we are and who we’re becoming. We want the dream life, the goals, the abundance, the success… but we forget to actually live while we’re building it. We forget to trust ourselves. We forget to listen to the pings. We forget that our intuition is connected directly to Source. But everything I’m experiencing right now — the miracles, the moments, the alignment — is because I’ve learned to walk hand-in-hand with my intuition and act when I’m called to act… even when it makes no sense and even when I’d rather stay in bed. Your intuition isn’t random — it’s direction. You don’t need permission to act on what’s been placed on your heart. Becoming the version of yourself who can hold the dream is part of the process. When God gives you a mission, He also provides the resources. Impact doesn’t require a crowd — it requires a willing heart. You can create magic in your community with exactly what you have today. You don’t have to have all the answers to start.

    30. Wonder, Bravery, and the Moment I Read My Book Pitch to One of the ORIGINAL Writers of Seinfeld - Your Next Level REQUIRES Your Bravery

    Summary I flew to Nashville for STORY 2025—an immersive storytelling experience—and let myself feel everything: awe, laughter, tears, and a full-body reminder to protect wonder in a world obsessed with certainty. I share what I learned from Harris III’s work on wonder, the comedy genius of Pat Hazel (Seinfeld) and Dave Reynolds (Conan, Toy Story, The Emperor’s New Groove), and the exact moment I chose bravery over perfection and read my book-jacket intro to Pat right there in the hallway. The win wasn’t external validation; it was proving to myself that I show up. What you’ll hear Why I’m reclaiming wonder (and how Googling everything can kill our joy) Harris III’s “Wonder Switch” idea and how I’m applying it in real life Legends in the writing room: Pat Hazel & Dave Reynolds—what I learned about comedy + voice The “invisible thread” moment that led me to read my book intro on the spot The difference between needing praise vs. needing bravery How pride in yourself becomes sacred fuel for the next opportunity Key takeaways Wonder is creative oxygen—let yourself not know and imagine again. Bravery is a practice; the more you choose it, the more it chooses you. You don’t need permission to be who you already are—prove it to yourself. When you show up, the next aligned door appears (and you’re ready to walk through it).
