Homeward: The Sovereign Business Podcast

Did you look at the title of this podcast and think, "but what if I'll never succeed" Or…"I don't even know what success means." Good news! This one's for you. Success is not a predetermined destination or a place that only the lucky ones arrive at. Success is whatever you decide it is. What a relief that we get to choose our own success trajectory. Today's episode is about reverse engineering our...

Do you ever find yourself scrolling through your Facebook feed or checking out someone's Insta story, only to close the app on your phone and somehow feel a little...less than? Whether consciously or not, chances are you've got a little bit of comparisonitis going on, and could find yourself in the "compare and despair" mode. Sound familiar? Today's episode is all about that feeling we get when we...

Today's episode hosts one of those conversations that goes straight for the heart and reminds us of the truth: that we don't need to prove anything to anyone to be worthy. In the words of Dr. Maya Angelou, our crowns have already been bought and paid for, we just need to wear them. And... in the words of my dear friend and today's rockstar guest…we are all queens. From the moment I met Karin Haysb...

Happy New Year, friends!! May it be filled with hope, joy, intention, abundance and massive alignment. Through the sifting and shifting that has occurred in my world over the past 365 days, I've had the pleasure of finding myself drawn closer and closer to my own soul's purpose. It has been a joy watching my life and business transform before my eyes. In this first episode of 2018, I invite you to...

When I think about welcoming in a New Year, it makes me all kinds of giddy. I am especially excited for the "8" because it represents infinity, harmony and balancing the material and unnatural world. This is, basically, code for spirituality taking center stage in the more conscious realm of our lives. 2018 is a year for awakening and greater enlightenment, as well as, abundance and expansion when...

This week I was inspired by one very simple thought. I was taking a break from the madness that can sometimes be the reality entrepreneurship and spent a few moments looking at my life. I saw the home and the spaciousness I have created in my world, the beautiful family I get to do each day with, the incredible friendships and students I get to connect with each day and the thriving business I hav...

In today's episode, I offer you a sneak peek at the blueprint I used to triple my income over the past 12 months and level up in a massive way. And, *bonus*... not only do I invite you to dream bigger...today, but I am going to show you how. 2017 was the year of expansion...and it was my most prosperous year to date. Not just in the realm of finances; but also in terms of the abundance that I welc...

It's that time of the year again. You know, the time of the year when you have a to-do list that somehow only seems to keep getting longer: The magical and, often, overwhelming holiday season. You have gifts to buy, cards to send, newsletters to write, parties to attend content to create, launches to plan and a million other things to get done…I feel like crawling back into bed just thinking about...

Ben and I sat down today to catch you up on all the momentous movement that has occurred in our lives since we retired him from the police force and brought him home to the Team 5 months ago. Life is all about evolution, and ours is no exception. We get into some real talk about what we've been up to, how our roles are changing and our hopes for our family in the coming months and years, as we bec...

What do CrossFit and my business have in common? In both of them, I have to show up, do the work, meet them where I am at, and not worry about what the girl next to me is doing. So often in our lives, we allow our fear of needing to do something perfectly, stop us from doing it at all. But we do ourselves a huge disservice when we do this, and in this Focus Friday, I am explaining to you exactly w...

Friends and fellow mamapreneurs, if you've ever wanted to see a living and breathing example of stunning dignity and grace in the most difficult of circumstances, you've found it in today's guest. Heather Crabtree is a mama, a wife, a friend, a daughter, and yes- a rockstar entrepreneur. But 8 months ago she found out the devastating news that her 9 year old daughter had Stage 4 cancer, and ever s...

WE ALL KNOW HOW IMPORTANT GRATITUDE IS, BUT DO WE EVER THINK ABOUT WHAT PURPOSE IT TRULY SERVES IN OUR LIVES? In the United States we just celebrated Thanksgiving, the time of year where people spend a little extra time and attention on what they're grateful for. This Focus Friday, however, I am calling you to welcome that practice into your lives each and every single day. We're not just talking...

Each and every one of us has gifts that we have been given and seeds that are meant to be sewn. What matters isn't that we have them; what matters is that we cultivate the courage to plant them...and find the willingness to get our hands dirty in the process. If you're looking for some guidance on how to do just that, my friends, look no further; Lara Casey has one heck of a green thumb. Lara is t...

You know those moments we've been preparing for our whole lives? The ones that we do the work for, so that when they show up we are able to handle them with dignity and grace? The ones that matter? Yes- those ones. On this Focus Friday, I share with you a conversation I had to have with my sweet daughter this week, that was precisely one of those moments. I invite you to sit down and listen to thi...

What does celebration mean to you? Is it the birthday parties, the weddings, the engagement dinners or the anniversaries? Is it the cakes, and the centerpieces and all of the sparkly gifts? But, what if the celebration, itself, IS the gift? What if we reframed celebration as a way to give (and to receive) love… and a vital part of the foundation that you could build an entire empire off of? Are yo...

Have you ever watched someone on stage, playing out on the field or in the middle of a creating a work of art? They just have this poetic and captivating way about them...lost in concentration, seemingly unaware of anyone else's opinion of them. Watching them connect so deeply and beautifully to their art and in complete service to their heart's expression is one of my favorite things to do. I am...

Every now and again, if you are lucky enough, you get to connect with people whose words are SO powerful- they just knock the wind right out of you. Jeanine Staples, my friends, is one of those people. She stunned the world (and me) with her TED Talk, "How To Die Peacefully", when she challenged the notion that humans are born, they live and then they die. No- Jeanine believes we are born and then...

Inspired. To be in spirit. This is the place with which I choose to operate from at all times and the driving intention behind the reason why I threw out my vision board. Not that there is anything wrong with vision boards (because there isn't), but because I came to find that I couldn't be in an inspired state of freely becoming, if my gaze was always fixed upon immoveable and specific things I w...

If there is one man that understands how to achieve Greatness, it is this one. But- not only does Lewis Howes know how to achieve it for himself, he has made it his mission… his life's purpose... to help as many people as he possibly can, do the same. When I met Lewis in person for the first time at his Summit of Greatness Mastermind event, I felt called to share with him how grateful I was and ho...

Last week, I shared something very sacred to Ben and I, on a very public platform. I told the story of our recent miscarriage on my Instagram profile . In the wake of losing the child we had just conceived, I opted to lean in by opening up, instead of just blocking everything out. I opened up my most private thoughts to the world, and what I received was a waterfall  of love and support from rocks...

When I saw Najwa Zebian speak on stage at the Summit of Greatness last spring, I was just completely entranced. As you'll hear in this episode, I often say that I live my life on the verge of tears, and here was a woman who was bold enough to step into her vulnerability and do the same. (In front of a LOT of people.) I felt such a deep connection to her story, to the parts of her that had struggle...

This woman and mama-to-be is a total rock star. Erin is going through an amazing transformation as she becomes a mother in addition to being a wholehe...

Kate Northrup was one of my most favorite online entrepreneurs and writers when I first launched my business. I loved her down-to-earth style and ageless wisdom and so appreciated how she had created a business that included working with her partner. Kate and I met back in December 2014 and became fast friends and mastermind sisters in our sweet little group that meets up in Maine every month. Thi...

I recorded this episode after the Las Vegas mass shooting in response to the thoughts and feelings coming up for me and so many. In this episode, I dig in to the opportunity for us to take personal responsibility for sacred activism in our lives. I also invite you to consider a new way of looking at your call to doing your soul's work in the world and why tragedies like this one are the wake-up ca...

Jennifer Desrosiers is a total boss with the ability to make things happen like a force of nature. Jen and I met back in December of 2014 and have been on a journey of upleveling and pushing past comfort zones together every since. We've attended multiple Tony Robbins' events together, we've walked on fire and we've pushed ourselves to reach new realms in our lives and businesses. I am so grateful...
