Go Regulate Yourself

The grief of losing someone you love is incredibly difficult enough as it is... but what happens when that loss was by suicide? What does that even look like? And how might it complicate your emotions, thoughts and behaviours moving forward? Well, in today’s Friday’s with Friends feature, Dr. Lisa Thompson has the answer. Together we are navigating this very delicate conversation as she shares abo...

Have you ever experienced a moment in your life where suddenly things felt like they were going really good for you- and yet, you were afraid to enjoy it because a part of you couldn't help but think 'it's not going to last forever'? Ya, me too. Recently I've been in this weird in-between space of blessings, opportunities and abundance flowing in like crazy... and while I want to have gratitude an...

Today I am joining you live from Ubud, Bali, as I share all about the comings and goings of this thing called life. In this episode, I discuss our current travel plans, what a typical day looks like for me right now- and what is happening as I prepare to head home to Canada in a couple of weeks. I discuss the current polar-opposite feelings I'm experiencing as I enjoy everything life has to offer....

There's a palpable difference between the energy of women supporting women- and women hating women. One of them fosters safety and the encouragement of being your true self, while the other evokes a desire to shrink and hide. But what determines how a woman actually shows up? What influences us in our interactions with others and how we ultimately treat each other? Amanda has the answer. In today'...

In replace of this week's solo episode, we're delivering an extra special treat to you! I recently had the honour of being featured on the Lauren of Love Podcast, 'The World Needs Your Medicine'. In this feature, I shared openly about my breast implant journey over the last ten years, and how I was able to finally heal my life-long body shame. This feature means a lot to me, and I am excited to sh...

Over the course of the last few years, we've seen a lot of self-development resources that are targeted towards time management- of habit stacking and multitasking so that we can achieve more and be quicker doing it.   In this, we've been sold the premise that the more ‘efficient’ we are now, the more time we will bank for the future, and the better off that we (and our loved ones) will be.   But...

When it comes to conversations on toxic relationships, we're usually quick to point a finger outside of ourselves and share the story of what so-and-so did to us. But how often are we pausing to reflect on our own personal baggage? When's the last time YOU did a reality check on your own 'red flags'? If you're like most of us, it's probably been a while (if ever)- and that's something we need to t...

What happens when we strip down the layers of who we are pretending to be, and people instead see us for the messy, chaotic, mistake-making humans that we are?   If your nervous system just took a nose dive thinking about that- then you just might be someone who struggles with perfectionism. Hi. You're in good company here.   In today's episode, we're having a deep discussion on the internal war o...

Growing up, most of us were taught that sex is dirty and we shouldn't talk about it. We were berated for touching ourselves and censored to believe that pleasure is bad. But what if self-pleasure was actually a portal to greater self-trust, and as a result, true self-love? What if exploring your body, learning what you like and don't like, could actually lead you to taking your power back? Well to...

Ever since I started 'working on myself' years ago, I realized just how unregulated I tend to be on a daily basis. My emotions? They can be all over the map, and there's a lot of things that can overstimulate me in a hot minute. As such, I've had to really come to terms with understanding myself and what I need to feel calm, content and grounded. In a 'normal' day, this is easy to manage- you know...

There’s an unspoken rule that most of us learn at a very young age about which bodies are allowed to belong- and which are not. As a result, we’ve gotten really good at shrinking and fitting ourselves into some pretty small boxes. We’re constantly adjusting, fixing, hiding- basically doing anything we can to avoid being seen in any area of our lives. And that? Well, it’s pretty fucking sad and it’...

Wouldn't it be cool if you could watch an actual, LIVE session being carried out of any treatment modality that you wanted to try before you invest your own dollars and time into it… so that you could truly know what it all entails?   Well I had a completely wild and unhinged idea the other day- and I've decided I'm going to create this exact thing for you.   Starting in May 2026, I am becoming yo...

Isn't it interesting that as a society we can get behind leaving a career, moving to a different city, or even upgrading our wardrobe as our identity changes- but the idea of leaving a marriage when it's no longer working is still so taboo to talk about? Together, we're exploring this exact topic. In this Friday's with Friends feature, we're diving into all the sticky parts of divorce with Hope Fi...

Have you ever stopped to consider the steps that you are taking in pursuit of a goal- and WHY exactly you're taking them?   If you said no, you wouldn't be alone. The truth is that most of us have a laundry-list of goals we're working towards, but what we DON'T have is an understanding of what can really make-or-break our chances of achieving them.   We're often guilty of obsessing over strategies...

Imagine being the public face and founder of a massive startup online, when suddenly overnight your 6+ figure income disappears and you're unable to continue forward with it. How does one overcome the fear of what people will think? How do you move past the shame, the guilt and the hurt? How do you continue moving forward and still come out on top? Ruth Shrauner has the answer. In today's Fridays...

Over the last two weeks I've entered into a ‘soul lesson’ portal (which happens basically every time I travel)- and today's episode is coming at you with a very important conversation that you need to hear.   That conversation is this: How does one actually change their life? What must one do? Or better yet, what is a non-negotiable in demanding more for your life?   The answer is simple.    In fu...

In case you haven't heard... we've created an EXCLUSIVE podcast community over on Substack recently, called Reg Babes After Dark. In this space, we're going off script and into even deeper conversations as we share more unhinged thoughts. Best part? We also have exclusive VIP live streams occurring every single month in this space- which will be member-only moving forward. Today we're bringing you...

It's been a week since I packed up my suitcase and ran away to the airport- and today, I'm sharing everything that's been going on, coming up, and happening in my life over the last little bit. Together in today's episode we're exploring the delay in our usual traveling and why I'm actually so grateful for the opportunity to 'winter' this year- as well as my realizations and quantum leaping that h...

Anyone who has experienced trauma in their life will tell you that it’s not necessarily the trauma itself that’s the hardest to overcome- but what comes next. Suddenly you’re not just trying to heal something that’s happened but learning how to live despite it. Because what happens when you have a nervous system that’s programmed for danger even when the ‘problem’ is gone? What happens when you ha...

For most of my life, I've been told that the role of a woman is to simply have children and bring new life into this world- and if I don't? Well, I'm either not experiencing the full depths of what it means to be woman, OR my time here on earth won't mean anything (because you know, legacy).   And so… I'm calling BS. The truth is that I've known from a very early age that children were not meant t...

Have you ever been held back in life from doing something that you really wanted to do? Or got scared that you might 'lose it all' after the hard work was already done? If so, you wouldn't be alone. The fear of failure is a real thing- and if we're being honest, it affects way more of us than we'd ever like to admit. In today's Fridays with Friends feature, we are chatting with Michelle Dammen, wh...

We've all went through hard things in life- things that have challenged us, things that have hurt us, and things that have left us wondering if we'd even survive to see tomorrow. But while this is common... you know what isn't? Using what we've been through to take radical responsibility for our lives, and make some dam changes. In today's episode you can join me on a lil' rant as I share somethin...

We've all heard about the importance of 'choosing yourself', but what does that actually mean when it comes to real life responsibilities? How do you find space for 'you' amongst the chaos, calendar and people in your life? Meredith Otero has the answer. Today in our Friday's with Friends guest feature, we are speaking with this fiery New Jersey gal about the moment when she said 'no' to stagnancy...

Sometimes when you've been on a 'healing journey' for a long time, it can feel frustrating when unexplainable emotions like anxiety bubble up to the surface. If we're not careful, that frustration can take over and distance us even further from 'regulation'- which can impact the law of attraction and so much more. In today's episode, I'm sharing with you a recent experience of mine where I had to...

A cup of coffee saved her life.    On an unsuspecting summer morning in 1977, Christiane Scarpino was saved by the three steps she took away from her desk to get a cup of coffee- at the precise moment that a bomb in her office went off.   Did you just get chills? Well, just wait until you here the rest of this story.   In this Friday's with Friends episode , we're talking directly with 70 year-old...
