    The Wisdom Inside Regret

    Regret can feel like a heavy backpack you have carried for years. It may start with one choice, one missed chance, one conversation, or one moment you wish had gone differently. Over time, that regret can begin to shape how you trust yourself, how you make decisions, and how you move forward in your life. In this episode of This Life or Something Better, Priscilla explores regret as a teacher rather than a punishment. She shares how regret often comes from choices we made with the tools, awareness, and information we had at the time, and why we do not actually know that the other choice would have turned out better. You'll learn how regret can point you back to your values, reveal what matters most, and help you make a new choice from where you are now. Priscilla also shares insight from her work as a medium and what loved ones in Spirit often express about the regrets they carried in life. This episode includes reflection questions and a simple writing practice to help you begin moving regret out of your mind and onto the page, where you can find the wisdom inside it. In this episode, you'll explore: How regret affects more than one area of life Why regret can become part of your identity The wisdom hidden inside choices that did not work out Why "no regrets" can be helpful in the moment but unrealistic as a life philosophy How expressive writing can support emotional healing and clarity What regret may be asking you to choose from this point forward Regret does not have to keep you stuck in the past. It can become the doorway to more compassion, honesty, courage, and peace. Keep reaching for your something better. Thanks for listening.

    Excuses or Results: You Can't Have Both at the Same Time

    In this episode, we explore the topic of Excuses and Results. Priscilla shares that you can have excuses, or you can have results, but you can't hold both at the same time. This isn't a conversation about productivity. It's a conversation about identity, self‑trust, and the version of you that's trying to emerge. We dive into the difference between promises and commitments, and why excuses become the escape routes we build to avoid the discomfort of becoming who we said we wanted to be. You'll learn why excuses feel so convincing, how they protect us emotionally, and what it looks like to step into a deeper, embodied state of commitment. If you're ready to stop negotiating with your potential and start honoring the future version of you who's already cheering you on, this episode will speak directly to your soul. Stay until the end for three powerful reflection questions to help you turn promises into commitments, and commitments into results. Thanks for listening.

    Three Steps to Break Your Habit of Procrastination

    Are you putting off something that still matters to you? In this episode of This Life or Something Better, Priscilla explores procrastination in a new way. You are not a procrastinator. You may have the habit of procrastination, and habits can be changed. As we get closer to the halfway point of the year, many people begin to drift from the goals, commitments, and personal growth intentions they made earlier in the year. The weather gets nicer, schedules change, distractions increase, and the things that once felt important can quietly get pushed to another day. This episode will help you understand procrastination as a pattern of avoidance, not a personal flaw. Priscilla shares three simple steps to help you break the habit of procrastination, return to what matters, and rebuild self-trust through small, clear action. You'll learn how to create a clear next step, remove distractions and easy exits, and create a runway of time so you can move through resistance and begin again. If you have been struggling with procrastination, motivation, follow-through, focus, or keeping commitments to yourself, this episode will help you shift out of judgment and back into action.

    How to Create the Right Conditions for Your Rebirth

    Rebirth is not always about starting over or changing everything in your life. Sometimes it begins by noticing what is supporting your growth and what may need a small adjustment. In this episode of This Life or Something Better, Priscilla explores how to create the right conditions for your rebirth by looking at the soil, water, light, nutrients, and space your growth needs. She also shares a personal story about choosing between Vermont and Connecticut, and the powerful image of one path being a vein and the other being an artery. You'll be invited to look at the people, conversations, routines, beliefs, and spaces around you and ask whether they support the version of you that is trying to grow. This episode will help you see rebirth as a process of tending to yourself, creating more possibility, and making one aligned adjustment at a time. Thanks for listening.

    Grief, Loss and the Connection That Remains

    Grief doesn't follow a timeline. It follows connection. In this episode, we're talking about grief in a way that goes beyond stages, timelines, and expectations. This is a grounded conversation about what grief actually feels like when you lose someone you love, or a pet who was part of your everyday life. Because grief doesn't always look the way we think it will. It can show up as feeling off, disconnected, uncertain, or like something just isn't right. Drawing from both personal experience and my work as a Medium, I walk through the most common questions people ask after loss - Are they okay? Are they still with me? Do they know how much I loved them? We'll explore what's happening in your mind and body, why grief comes in waves, and how the connection with your loved one or pet doesn't end, it simply changes. If you've been questioning your grief, wondering why you still feel the way you do, or trying to make sense of this in-between space, this episode will help you understand it in a different way.

    The Grief You Didn't Expect: When Change Happens

    Have you ever felt like you don't recognize yourself anymore but you also don't know who you're becoming? In this episode, we're talking about a kind of grief that often goes unnoticed. The grief of losing the version of you that you used to be. As you grow, change, and step into something new, parts of your old identity begin to fall away. And even if that change is positive, it can still feel uncomfortable, confusing, and even heavy at times. This is simply transition. In this episode, we'll explore why growth can feel like loss, why the pull to go back is so strong, and how to move through this in-between space with more understanding and trust. If you've been feeling off, uncertain, or questioning where you are in your life right now, this episode will help you see that you're not lost, you're simply becoming something better.
