Where you want it so badly to be replenishing, recharging, and then you feel like you can't quite get it to be what you want it to be. I'm in Sweden now relaxing here after a friend's wedding in...

In a world where we wear our packed calendars and mile-long to-do lists like gold medals, slowing down can feel…suspicious, lazy, unproductive. But what if the secret to your best ideas...and the relaxed, steady confidence you crave...lives in the quiet spaces you keep skipping over? What if slowing down is the missing link between our burnout and our best ideas? In this episode, I share how I’m p...

In this episode, I unpack what came up, why those moments m...

Do you ever feel like life is testing you?  But what if… it’s actually guiding you? This week on Powerful Stuff, we’re talking about a little concept with a big vibe shift: pronoia —the belief that the universe is conspiring in your favor.

Since moving back to LA, I’ve been noticing how many quiet little assumptions I make—about what’s possible for me here, what people are thinking, how things might go—and how often those assumptions cut me off from connection, creativity, and joy. As a coach, I see this all the time: assumptions that feel like truth but actually box us in. They don’t just limit you —they also rob the people around...

We've all been there. Scrolling then suddenly we see someone who has something we want or who is doing something WE want to be doing. And then we fester and spiral. And the spiraling turns to inaction. And the inaction turns to feeling even worse. Been there? Me too.  But, fear not! Today, on Powerful Stuff, I'm going to share with you my magic process to stop comparison dead in its trac...
