Figuring Sh!t Out

A new chapter. A new beginning. Season Two. A new theme: Almost always done, because we never will be. Never complete, because our wholeness isn't found outside of us. And on this episode, we cover how to find more of that wholeness. The only thing we should question -- is our limits. Confronting our comfort zones with the courageous act of taking ownership of our lives and lovingly accepting...

We are always changing. Whether we resist or allow. Change happens, with or without us - But always within us.  It is necessary to let ourselves let go of what we no longer need, bid farewell to what doesn’t serve us any longer, and step into an unknown future with bravery and hope.  To all who have been on their journey of Figuring Sh!t Out in 2023, with or without me — give yourself credit, let...

Imagine the freedom of living unencumbered by the fear of others' opinions, feeling rooted, grounded, and connected to yourself, your truth, and your exploration of life - where your worthiness is not a question, but a statement.  What would you do?  How would you act?  How would you move? As we end 2023, many of us are thinking about what we want to release and leave behind, and what we want...

We've all been there: one thing goes wrong, then another, then another - and we feel like a slave to our conditions, a slave to our mind's negative thinking patterns, unable to wake ourselves up or shake ourselves out of the rut we're in, and sometimes, the rut we are falling further into. How do you get out of that place? The one that feels so dark, so sticky, so dreary. How do you go...

This episode was recorded back in September of this year, but I found it in my audio-files and as I listened to it, I couldn’t help but know that it was never published for a reason. It felt as though I spoke directly to myself in my current situation — in the space between this September & this December, I have found myself amid quite a bit of career confusion, not having any answers or knowi...

Are you brave enough to let yourself change? To let yourself be taken out of the box of ideas and beliefs you cling onto, and gain clarity of consciousness, and the simplicity of presence?  This episode is a note on allowing yourself to evolve, to expand, and holding space for the liminal space between where you are now, and where you are going. To hold space for mystery, and find empowerment in l...

We all have a sense of timeless urgency.  Are we running out of time? Should we be somewhere else at this stage of our lives? What’s left to do? What’s next to accomplish? An urgency that we humanly attempt to fill with more material things, and more material dreams of material things. The importance of integrating gratitude into our daily routines is something that’s been talked about time &...

When our lives begin to brim with chaos, when we are facing deadlines and urgency and getting ready for life's momentous next moments, we often feel endlessly confused, as if there is an incessant thought-loop that never ceases to let us know that we will never have the answers. These are the moments when we need breath, perspective, and patience. Knowing that there is an older, wiser version...

To create true change in our lives, to become the version of ourselves that we wish to be, to shift our mindset from one of lack and scarcity to one of of abundance - it starts with the little actions we take every single day. The minutes that compound into hours, the hours that compound into days, the days that compound to weeks, then months, then years. If nothing changes now, then nothing will...

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: How many times have you talked yourself out of an idea because “it didn’t make sense?” because it “never has been done”?  What is a calling if we have silenced it for so long, we no longer know what calls to us? What is intuition goo...

We all have an intuition that is bravely, uniquely, and quietly our own. An unexplainable inner wisdom, a sixth sense that can hardly be articulated. Our acquaintanceship with our own intuition is deeply connected to how much we know and trust ourselves. To listen to it - we must have a certain solitude with the self, a practice of discernment with our mental activity to know what is intuition and...

This episode calls for redefining discipline in our external world and understanding when it's necessary to retreat in order to continue expanding. What can you give when your natural energy stores are depleted? Who are you when you have nothing left for yourself, because you've spent hours and days and weeks saying yes - against your natural knowing of what you need? What sacrifices  do y...

This episode serves as a guide to understanding your limiting beliefs, shattering those illusions, and how to identify and live in alignment with what you want and who you want to be. Last week, we covered letting go of the past. Now, we forge a new future. This requires one thing - an overlapping element from last week's episode and an underpinning of Figuring Sh!t Out: Honesty with the self....

In this episode, I take you through my last few weeks of navigating life & what it has taught me about:   Moving on. Moving forward. Facing an unknown future with a bit of fear but a lot of relief - in knowing what you are leaving behind.  Saying goodbye to your pain and to the stories it wishes to perpetuate. We cannot avoid feeling what we wish not to face.  They teach us the most valuable l...

"It is truly a great cosmic paradox that one of the best teachers in all of life turns out to be death. No person or situation could ever teach you as much as death has to teach you. While someone could tell you that you are not your body, death shows you. While someone could remind you of the insignificance of the things that you cling to, death takes them all away in a second. While people c...

This episode takes you through the critical aspects of inner child healing, from understanding the influence of our environment on the inner child, to releasing the pain of rejection and judgment. It's a deeply personal look into the struggles of independence, difficult relationships, and the desire for self-acceptance.  This episode is part one of an embarkation on shadow-work, a series to gu...

What would happen if we could trust that the chaotic tower moments were our divinely lit turning points for our own evolution? How much faster would we grow to see the sun if we could know that it would always rise again, after even the darkest of days?  How many blessings in disguise have you uncovered? How many bullets have you dodged? How many times have you looked back at yourself in shambles...

It starts with you. And it ends with you. Always and forever.  With the image casted upon us from Storybooks & Fairytales of the Damsel in Distress & the Knight in Shining Armor, we often feel in the depths of our pain and confusion, that we are to wait to be rescued by an unknown savior on horseback to break us out of the dungeon of affliction and into freedom. But this is an illusion. Fo...

The long, dreaded, and almost habitual cycle of Burn Out. Why? We desensitize our bodies and our brains to the overstimulus in this world of force and we are left physically exhausted, emotionally empty, and mentally overwhelmed. We blink our tired eyes awake and say yes when we know that we shouldn't. We strive, we push, we obtain - for what? For whom? How much is your worth based on how &#34...

Imposter syndrome impacts the greatest legends, experts, actors, writers, "knowers" and "do-ers" of all time. And yet - the biggest premise of feeling like an imposter, is feeling like we are the only ones hidden in disguise, waiting to be found out. "I have written 11 books, but each time, I think, 'uh oh, they're going to find me out. I've run a game on everybody,...

Get real with yourself.  Are you treating yourself the way that you want to be treated? How are you showing up for yourself? Truly, sit with what type of love that you want - think about how you want to be treated, with no limitations. Think about what type of life you want to create, with no limitations. For a moment, let yourself dream. And then, start treating yourself that way. Take care of yo...

You can micromanage your life and your personhood all that you want, you can lose your voice screaming at the sky for the answers and reasons of why you were born -  but you cannot micromanage your soul. Do you realize how much you are holding yourself back from your blessings by demanding they come in right here, right now? Do you realize how much you may be blocking answers and guidance by yearn...

Who are you, when no one’s watching?  and when they are watching - what are you trying so hard for?  Where are you lying to yourself? Craving to be understood, but fearful of being perceived?  What an oxymoron. You crave to be understood, but fear being perceived - because you believe that people won’t understand you, won’t see you, won’t get you.  And you let that matter. You let that move you. ...

it's time to learn how to say no & not feel bad about it.  in this episode, learn how to reclaim your power, time, space, and energy by learning how to protect your boundaries with grace & vigilance.  sacrificing your boundaries in the name of love is not a noble, empathetic act.  it is martyrdom. it is self-abandonment. and it is reinforcing the falsehood that you are not worthy of lo...

Inside of all of us, there is a voice. A quiet, guiding light handed to us from evolution and survival - through our primal selves to our modern selves, we have carried it through our bones.  And with a culture that places more importance on logic, reason, reality, and physical evidence - we have become profoundly disconnected from it.  This voice is our most powerful asset, it is our internal com...
