The Simplifiers Podcast

Let's talk about cooking, more specifically, let's simplify how to cook lighter with your Instant Pot! It's happened, I too have jumped on the bandwagon of cooking with an Instant Pot… and can I say, I LOVE IT.

Time for a guided visualization exercise: I want to simplify how to keep calm during the holidays. It's so easy to get caught up in the frenzy at this time of year. It feels like things are cranked to 11 no matter where you go, that it's certainly counter-cultural to buck the system and to do something different. Remain calm, do less, stay present in the moment and choose a better way. Therefore,...

Do you want to have a clutter-free Christmas this year? Let's face it… Christmas and the holiday season is here and there's no stopping it now. For some, just the thought of all the to-do's and hanging with the in-laws gives you the hives. For others, the frenzy is exhilarating but by December 27th, you always seem to come down with flu-like symptoms that (totally) flatten you for days. Raise your...

Are you feeling a bit stuck when it comes to your income? Like you've hit a plateau and can't seem to surpass it? We've all been there before at some point in our journey of running a small business and the tendency is to believe the myth that we just need to work HARDER or put in MORE hours or push, push, push until our bodies break and relationships suffer.

Earlier this week, we shared part one of this all-star conversation , all about how to say NO to hustle culture. And this conversation has really stuck in the forefront of my mind this entire week. So many aspects of how we choose to live our lives, who we spend time with and who we invest in. What things we bring into our lives and what things we say, "thank you but no thank you." All of this is...

It's time to decide… is it time to (finally) say NO to hustle culture running and slowing ruining your entire life? I know I am… but you might not even be aware of the insidious undertone that is happening around us and inside us on the daily, that is totally driving the bus. It reinforces the lie of "not enough" and "you're doing it wrong" because like any virus, it needs a host to feed on. And i...

Thrilled to present another all-star episode from The Simplifiers Podcast vault, this round, we are talking all about how to supercharge your self-confidence featuring a recent conversation with author Kat...

What if I told you it was possible to level up by doing less? Would you give it a go? So many of us have been conditioned over the years that MORE is the answer. More hours in front of your computer. More hustle, more grind, more exertion equals more success. So, umm… how's that working out for you? For me… not so great. So, let's talk about doing less, instead.   My all-star special guest today i...

Do you want to know how to organize your workspace like a pro? I don't know about you, but the summer months always inspire me to declutter, and this year I'm going all out.

Time to break out the fire pit and the marshmallows!   My all-star guest today is the decluttering expert of Si...

Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation , all about how to use the Myers-Briggs to avoid burnout. No matter which of the 16 personality types there are (The Healer, The Architect, The Teacher, The Protector, to name a few), this wisdom is applicable to you. Because when you understand your preferences that dictate your conscious actions and unconscious behaviors, you can create...

Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation , all about how to identify your pain points in life. This conversation has really stuck with me this entire week through, because let's face it… we as humans are conditioned to avoid pain at whatever cost, right? But then, ironically, we sometimes stay in situations that cause a lot of pain and strife for fear of the unknown on the other...

At times, it's obvious to identify your pain points in life - those things that cause you stress, strife, or leave you feeling like things are starting to go off course and you're not sure how to get back on track. But what about the things in your work and life that are causing you pain that you are oblivious to? How do you begin to courageously work through these elements to get unstuck and star...

Is it possible? Now, if you haven't heard part one, go back and listen to that one first . But if you're rea...
