After spending the last several months (YEARS actually) studying habits and the different ways that they intertwine with our self image and identity, I'm excited to dedicate an episode to just a sampling of these ideas. 
This episode is an invitation to step into the power of your unique voice and live with joy, shedding the constraints of a rigid self-narrative.
James Clear's "Atomic Habits" takes center stage in our discussion, offering a look at how small changes can lead to monumental shifts in our self-perception and identity. We navigate the landscape of neuroplasticity, taking a look at how altering our daily routines can rewire our brains and reinforce our self belief. 
We end the episode by illuminating the subtle distinction between being humble and modest. Instead of diminishing our light under the guise of modesty, we champion humility as a genuine expression of self that empowers both ourselves and those around us. 
Join me for an empowering conversation that encourages you to live unapologetically, honor your successes, and to inspire a collective ascent to loosening those laces and living out whatever largeness lies within you.

P.S. Please help me out and tell your friends this podcast is back! Apple Podcasts has paused a huge amount of listeners without them knowing. Between that and my (highly diminished) reach on social media, barely any of my subscribers even know that the podcast has returned. Thank you for sharing in any way you can! Muah

Welcome back to another episode of Cliffs Notes from a Curious Mind! This is an abbreviated list of the top 7 things that I've learned, loved, listened to, and/or labored over. Today's topics are:

1) A bit of Martha Graham's wisdom
2) the vibrant spirit of John Batiste's 'American Symphony' (and his upcoming tour).
3) we peer through the lens of 'fundamental attribution error,' encouraging a deeper understanding of our judgments. 
4) Dacher Keltner's book, 'Awe' takes us on a  tour of wonder, inspiring us to seek out the extraordinary in the ordinary.
5) We dabble in neuroscience and find the healing properties of tears.
6) Brene Brown on finding friends who protect our light.
7) Rick Rubin and his advice on Metta Practice

I'm back and happy to say that taking a pause can be a transformative experience! A while ago, I made the decision to step away from the noise (in order to hear myself instead).
In the quietness away from the constant buzz of social media, I found a liberty in solitude and a renewed connection with the voice within. This episode shares a bit of that journey and a toast to the joys of returning to this podcast that I love so much. Join me as we celebrate curiosity and creativity, and continue our collective quest for a life brimming with fulfillment.

I'm so excited to reconnect with all of you and extend a heartfelt thank you for your unwavering support! 

And if you're looking for an extra spark of inspiration, don't miss out on Rachel Larson Weaver's episode (Episode 61)—it's the perfect springboard into our new season. 
Your engagement and five-star reviews mean the world to us, as we forge ahead with curiosity and a thirst for knowledge, ever eager for the next discovery on this podcasting adventure.

NOTE****   A recent iPhone update may have thrown a wrench in the works, disrupting our usual channels of connection, but it's nothing we can't overcome together. I encourage you to double-check your follows and notifications to ensure you're up-to-date with our latest episodes. Please tell your friends too!

Hello to all of my new listeners and welcome back to so many of you! Today I want to share something that I recorded several years ago called Wear Sunscreen. This spoken word song was a guiding force for me in my twenties and is something that I believe everyone can learn a little something from.

If you haven't heard it yet, you're welcome...and if you have, listen to it again.

Thanks so much for all of the shares and messages and people out there listening. This is one of my greatest joys and I'm soooo happy to be back!

We're coming right out of the gate with someone that I see as the living embodiment of all of the  joy,  curiosity, truth telling, and creative living that I've envisioned for this new season.

In this first episode of Season 2, we talk about crafting a daily life that keeps us fulfilled and inspired, finding pockets of joy, building intentional friendships, and staying open to all of the POSSIBILITY that life has to offer.

If you're looking for that kick in the pants to keep you excited and hungry for a more expansive and colorful life, this is it.
