Earn Your Happy

Do you have a habit that you’ve totally convinced yourself is okay, but you know deep down inside if you made this one little tweak, you could be operating at such a higher level? For me, I knew that I needed to cut back on how many days a week I was drinking alcohol. In order to kick the habit of having a drink in the evening, I’ve started to get creative with mocktails and implement other ritual...

I’m in such a busy season right now and can’t afford to be distracted. I’ve had to become a lot more regimented and thoughtful about the time that I spend on my phone because I’ve noticed that checking a text turns into responding to DMs and scrolling TikTok, which is such a bad habit to get into. Where are you causing yourself more stress and selling your dream by taking yourself out of the zone?...

One of the most powerful monthly practices that I have is to sit down and really go through what’s bogging me down and taking up too much of my mental space.

Do you have to schedule that appointment or send that email that you’ve been avoiding...

I always say that I’m a graduate of “Google University” because instead of giving up when I don’t know something, I put it right into my search bar and go down the rabbit hole.

In today’s episode, I share my favorite exercise for formulating questions an...
