Have It All

Get ready for a total MIC DROP of a show! My friend and literacy professor and coach, Stephanie Affinito , is my guest today and sharing with us how even SIX minutes of reading has positive effects on our nervous system and THIRTY minutes has the same impact on our cortisol levels as YOGA. I know, I couldn't believe it either! So if you needed a good excuse to curl up with a book as the holidays a...

Maybe you're like me when I started to go down the rabbit hole of "having my best life" back in 2008, and I had NO idea what I wanted.   If so, or if you want to enhance a life you already love...this episode is for you.   So grab a notebook, and get ready to uncover what you currently have in your life that you don't want. Then you'll make a list of what you do want. And finally, some a...

I'm beyond excited to have MY coach and friend, Kelsey Murphy , on the show today. She is a coach for coaches, so buckle up and get ready for some VERY real talk. Kelsy doesn't hold back at all when she shares about her "having it all" and how she's created a business and life that she loves. This episode is NOT TO MISS! You can find more about her HERE , and stay tuned for next week's episode whe...

If you haven't had a chance to listen to my podcast with Liz Wood, take a listen to that for more on what I'll share today. Liz is extraordinary at creating a life she loves, but she is wise enough to not do it alone, and brave enough to tell the truth.   I love working with her so very much, and what I find with clients who have everything start to work out really well, is there is sometimes...

In this episode, my friend and coaching client, Liz Wood, shares with us VERY hard choices she has made in an effort to create a life she loves. I adore her honesty and vulnerability when she opens up for the first time publicly about an adoption she had and then reversed. A marriage that ended in divorce, and how she has handled multiple ups and downs...and found her way home to herself. She is a...

If you've listened to any of my podcasts or coaching videos, you know that I teach people to listen to their intuition. Their GUT. Their inner voice. Because while it might not be what you want to hear, it will lead you onto a path that delights you and feels at ease. I loved doing this podcast and talking more deeply about what my guest, Stephanie Boone, founder of Wondercide, experienced as she...

Join me and my guest, Stephanie Boone, as we dive deep into how intuition is your greatest ally, not only in life...but especially in your career. Stephanie started a little company (just kidding, it's HUGE!) called Wondercide , as a passion project to help save the life of her beloved dog. Little did she know that it would grow into the company it did, supports thousands of families and save the...

To expand upon Episode 6 with my decluttering expert Hannah Antonson , I wanted to share a solo episode about my own attachment to things. Specifically a home we recently bought with everything in it, and needed to clean out. AND my experience letting go of previous identities I've had in the past. It's not easy to let go, and it can be hard to declutter when we don't want to let go of who we used...

Join me and my guest, Hannah Antonson, a decluttering and organizational expert, as we unpack our attachment to STUFF. Call it junk or treasures, doesn't matter. Too much stuff isn't good for your life. And it certainly doesn't help you have it all! So listen up and get ready to look around your house, apartment, car, pantry, closet, linen closet and see how too much stuff could be holding you bac...

I don't know where it happened, but we get taught jealousy is not good. It's probably religious. "Thou shall not covet they neighbor" or something like that (I was raised Episcopalian and rarely went to church, but it's something like that).  But here's the thing I LOVE about jealousy. It's a map. It tells us what we want, when we aren't exactly certain sometimes. It is informative and inform...

I’m so excited to share a very special podcast episode with my friend and former client, Rachel Truair.  Rachel and I met as mom/neighbors right before Covid hit and she was in my very first official Artist’s Way program where I discovered how much I loved guiding people through the book that changed my life 16 years ago. On today’s episode, Rachel shares how spending time with herself inform...

This episode is all about how to take things out of your life that aren't serving you. I dive into the truth about why I quit drinking 13 months ago as a way to save my marriage, and coach you on how to eliminate, delegate or transform things in your life that don't feel aligned. If you're looking to transform something in your life that isn't working, then private coaching may be a good fit for y...

Give up alcohol? I never thought I would. But on the podcast today, my guest and I dive into this ONE thing...giving up alcohol has been the way to HAVE IT ALL. Never in a million years did I expect my first guest of the podcast to be an alcohol-free coach! But here we are. Such a great reminder to never say never! Dupe Witherick is a coach and fellow podcaster who helps people THRIVE without alco...

The first episode of the new show is here! In this first episode you'll be hearing about why I changed the name and focus of this podcast and what you can expect with every episode. I'm committed to everyone having it all, and this podcast is my way of helping that happen in the world. Thank you for listening. I love you.

BE BRAVE! And know that you can change your mind. Today's episode is a FINALE in ways, and a little pause as I share that my new podcast is changing and what I'm really passionate about...having it all. This is the article I reference in today's show and let me be clear, YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL. And, you won't want the same things at every season of your life. So perhaps that is what Shonda Rhimes was...

A special Father's Day podcast to remind us all of the strength and power that the men in our lives provide. This may have come from your actual father, or perhaps a father figure in your life.  I watch my husband be a father to our little boys and think about my boys maybe being fathers one day, and it's really important. Our world is shifting really quickly from a black and white world to m...

Why are you not getting what you want? Make sure to listen up to today's podcast, if this sounds like you in any part of your life. You want something, and you just can't get it. Two things are going on. 1. You don't inherently think you are worth it. 2. You don't really believe it's possible. They are tied together, but I like to look at them separately. Take a listen and let me know what you thi...

Ever wonder what it's like being named Siri?  Or where Siri's name came from? Both my guest and the little person in your phone called Siri? Well, listen to today's podcast and you'll find out both. And what a perfect reminder that we can literally go from "unknown" to "known" overnight.  What a perfect reminder that everything can change in the blink of an eye. Make sure you are paying...

I don't know about you, but NOTHING has been going to plan in my life lately. How about yours? Is it summer? Or a moon schedule or all of it? I truly don't know.  But in an effort to always be in the driver's seat of my life, I've transformed it. What if it's all working out for me? That has been the questions I'm asking myself, which then leads me to this mantra... "It's all workin...

The first guest on the podcast and I'm thrilled to have Siri Baruc Thornton along with tons of laughter, insights and story telling. We met at a podcasting summit and had the funniest exchange when I was being super serious and she couldn't stop giggling. This conversation was our first ever in life. What a joy to know her and to have this conversation recorded. I know it will be the first of many...

Okay, settle in for this podcast and grab a notebook. Today's episode is from my Summer Fun Summit and will help you get clear about how you want to feel this summer. This is exactly what I do with my clients, and brought it to a larger format for the Summit. I love to do this every season to make sure I stay grounded and don't let the little things ruffle my feathers! You can get all the Summer F...

A super quick mini episode today, and reminder (or maybe permission?) to do it YOUR way. Not anyone else's way, or timeline, or style...YOURS.   You are here to do it your way.   Get really good at being YOU. And if you want some help with that, I'd love to have you in The Reconnect . We start June 18th!   I love you.

Let's get straight to it on this topic...self sabotage. (and listen to Episode 14 for a nice set up for this topic!) We say we want things, and then we get them. BUT can we stand it? Can we actually believe a person loves us and wants to spend their life with us? Can we enjoy the kids we always dreamt of and weren't sure we'd have? Can we LOVE our job that at one point, we were so excited to get?...

Do you wanna manifest a firetruck? And then a garbage truck?   Oh wait, that's my 2 year old's dream...you probably want something very different than him! And that's what this episode is all about.   What do you want? Do you know? And will you go after it?   The doors open to my signature coaching program TODAY!   The Reconnect  8 week summer program is here to help...

Today's episode is a favorite principle of mine and it's this: How you do Anything is How you do Everything. Think about it. Do you always rush around? Is your car always a mess, and come to think of it...so is your fridge and your purse and your closet? For me, I noticed 16 years ago that I would only read books 2/3 of the way through. Which was EXACTLY how I was also living my life. Good enough....
