    The Season of YES: Healing, Reinvention & Doing It Afraid with Nikki Carbonell

    What happens when you’ve spent years surviving, providing, raising your kids, and taking care of everyone else… and suddenly it’s time to figure out who you are? This week, I’m joined by Nikki Carbonell, mom of three, domestic violence survivor, trauma-informed yoga teacher, certified stretch and flexibility coach, and founder of Flame & Flow Creations. Nikki opens up about leaving an abusive marriage, rebuilding her life, moving across the world to Japan, navigating motherhood as her children become adults, and realizing how much of her identity had been tied to being needed, working, and taking care of everyone around her. We also talk about how yoga became part of her healing journey, why trauma-informed and body-inclusive spaces matter, building a business even when you’re terrified to fail, and learning to fill your own cup in every season of womanhood. Nikki calls this chapter of her life her “season of yes and doing things while afraid,” and this conversation is such a beautiful reminder that it is never too late to rediscover yourself, reinvent yourself, and create a life that feels like yours.

    Wake windows, contact naps, regressions, sleep training… there is SO much information out there about baby sleep. But what actually works for your baby? This week, Lex sits down with Jordan Lander, certified pediatric sleep consultant with Sleep Wise Consulting, registered nurse, and mom of two, for a judgment-free conversation about baby and toddler sleep.

    Finding Your People: Friendship, Motherhood & Community with Jen Cerritos

    Why does making friends feel so much harder as an adult? We’re continuing our series highlighting regular women who are anything but average. This week, Lex sits down with Jennifer Cerritos, founder of Confetti & Connections, a community helping women throughout the Santa Clarita Valley find genuine friendship and connection. Jennifer opens up about motherhood, raising three boys, navigating difficult seasons, and turning her own loneliness into something meaningful. We talk about why women stop investing in friendships, finding the courage to walk into the room alone, and creating spaces where every woman feels seen, supported, and welcome. Because your future best friend may be sitting in the very room you’re afraid to enter. This episode was prerecorded, so the luau mentioned has already passed, but Jennifer’s next Gratitude Gathering, Falling Into Gratitude, is happening September 25 with amazing local vendors.
