Bliss'n Up Podcast

In this episode, I open up about an unexpected personal decision I made—and the inner wrestling match that came with it. For years, I prided myself on aging gracefully and living holistically, but life called me to reconsider what alignment really means. I share the full story behind my first experience with Botox: the permission I had to give myself, the self-doubt I faced, and the bigger truth I...

In this first episode of 2026, I share a story that taught me everything can change—without anything changing—when you shift your perspective. I take you inside a dinner gone wrong (or right?), where a simple mistake invited embarrassment, reflection, and a new lens on priorities. If you’re stepping into the new year hoping for clarity, rhythm, and a gentler way to adjust, this conversation is for...

In this heartfelt year-end episode, I invite you into my personal reflection rituals and share why intention is created on the daily, not just the yearly. You’ll hear how my own “Queen” year unfolded, why transition is uncomfortable, and the surprising tradition that sparked magic in my family’s holidays. Whether you’re ready to adjust old rhythms or simply need permission to honor the micro-momen...

This week, I invite you behind the scenes into a very real and unscripted moment—when my plans for the “perfect” episode unraveled and the universe nudged me toward transparency and grace instead. Recorded on the winter solstice, this episode is a gentle reminder that progress—not perfection—is what truly moves us forward. If you’re longing for a fresh start or simply need permission to be human,...

This week I sit down with my dear friend—and Bliss’n Up team member—Fran, for a conversation about embracing life’s “fourth quarter” with intention and heart. Fran shares her journey from no man’s land to finding purpose in connection, community, and service. We talk about the signs of transition, how to experiment with “dress rehearsals” for your next chapter, and why nurturing relationships and...

In this heartfelt episode, I share how the word “inspirit” set my intention for December—yet life quickly deepened its meaning through personal challenges. I open up about navigating hurtful experiences, the power of pausing before responding, and how Ho’oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian forgiveness practice, helped me return to my spirit. Whether you’re feeling joyful or lonely this season, this epi...

This week, I wrap up N² November, our month of savoring the now while preparing for what’s next, and set the stage for a brand-new month: In-Spirit December. I share personal reflections from a challenging but meaningful month, including an unexpected lesson about pain, presence, and purpose. From a swollen face to a synchronicity in Whole Foods, this episode reminds us that living with intention...

In this special episode, I share an unforgettable story of synchronicity and gratitude—a chance encounter on a plane that transformed two lives.

If you’re seeking faith in humanity and a reminder that grace can find you e...
