In this episode of Deciding to Soar: Living Life Your Own Way, I share a hard-learned truth: not everyone in your life is a safe place.

In this episode, I guide you through seven markers of discernment that will help you identify who you...

Today’s episode is a re-release—something I first shared three years ago. But as I prepared for this September, I realized this message still speaks powerfully to where we are now.

In this soul-stirring episode, I revisit a powerful training I conducted last year that feels more relevant now than ever. As the world grows louder and more complex, your voice—your truth—matters deeply. Even though many of us have learned to stay silent about our wants, needs, desires, and beliefs, this silence comes at a high cost because it leads to suffering. Why? When we don't speak up for o...

Nothing reveals truth more than a trial. And in my case, a 10-month illness became one of my most unexpected truth-tellers about life, leadership, and especially about friendship. Because when you're sick, tired, and vulnerable, you learn quickly who's standing with you… and who's simply standing around trying you to "be in the know." You also learn which relationships are built on convenience, an...
