    Ep 75: Overriding Your Primitive Brain

    Do you ever feel like you're at war with yourself? Yesterday you decided all the amazing things you were going to accomplish today… but when it's time to follow through, you suddenly have 20 reasons to do something else instead. In this episode, I'm sharing what's actually happening inside your brain when you avoid the very things that matter most to you — and why your brain isn't broken… it's just doing its job. Tune in to learn how to become the one in the cockpit who calls the shots, instead of letting your primitive brain run the show.   Curious about coaching?  Schedule a free mini session with me to see what it's like!

    Ep 74: The Truth About Stress

    We often talk about stress like it's something that is caused by a job, a project, a holiday, or other things outside of ourselves. Today I'm sharing what actually causes stress. (Spoiler alert:  it's our thoughts.)  Understanding the true case and source of stress can help you manage it more effectively in the moments that you're feeling it, and also help you gradually create less of it in your life over time.  If you're looking for a completely stress free life...sorry this won't help with that, but tune into this week's episode for some gems on how to effectively deal with stress and face it when it comes along.  :)   If you've been enjoying the podcast, could you leave me a quick review?  Thanks you!   Curious about coaching?  Schedule a free mini session with me to see what it's like!    Are you tired of constant negative self talk?

    If you've been waiting to make a decision because you're holding out for an option that won't feel hard, this episode is for you. We're talking about the hidden cost of your maybes—and why the indecision meant to protect your options may be the very thing holding you back.

    Ep 72: The Joy of Accepting Limits

    We live in a world obsessed with "unlimited"—unlimited streaming, unlimited plans, unlimited potential. But your closet, your calendar, and your emotional energy definitely have limits. In this episode, I share why accepting those limits isn't giving up—it's the key to less overwhelm and more peace. We'll talk about clutter, time, and control, and how working with reality instead of fighting it can make life feel lighter and more joyful.   Challenge: This week, choose a container in your life (a drawer, a room, a day of the week... your ability to control something outside of yourself) that has been feeling too full and try choosing to simply accept the limits of that space and see what happens.
