I know, I know- you probably don't appreciate being called a baby. But, hear me out: you can be a beginner and not be a baby. And the reverse is true: you can be a master at something and still have a baby-mindset. What do I mean by "baby"? An unmanaged mind.  This episode talks about the evolution of fear, what it's good for, why we have it, and how it's holding you back in all areas of your life...

You might want a pen and paper out for this one! This episode is like a mini seminar- you'll want to take notes for SURE! Full disclosure: I totally screw up in this episode and start saying " 4 things you need "- but, it's FIVE THINGS- & we're here, I'm not perfect, and it's all good, so we're keeping it. This is such an exciting (and nerve wracking) episode for me to release- it's almost like an...

On today's episode, Laura and I talk about some of the taboo topics in women's health like pelvic floor health including urinary and fecal incontinence, working out during and after pregnancy, and how bad is "bad enough" when it comes to seeking help fr...

You probably hate that your following is so small. And want more followers. And want a million clients. Am I right? I used to want more of everything, too. Until I realized I could do BETTER and MORE with LESS. If your following is on the smaller side and if the amount of clients you have is also on the smaller side (think: less than ~100 or so) you have SUCH A HUGE ADVANTAGE- and you need to leve...

Guarantee you won't see this coming. It's not more down time, it's not more bubble baths, it's not more sleep. It's not more movement, or more meditation. It's none of those things. It's not even tangible. If you want 2020 to *actually* be a better year for you, you need this one thing. It starts with an F. But it's not my favorite F word. And it's not french-fries- though, that would definitely m...

Starting a business is scary as it is. Someone leaving a nasty, mean, or rude comment on your social media is even harder. I've received them all- from literal death threats, to downright hurtful and mean, to people tagging their friends in my comments section to see how dumb, ugly, or gross I am- I've gotten them all. And my audience is small! YIKES! Does it get worse? Maybe. But I've worked real...

Running your business or is your business running you? If you don't have boundaries within your business, specifically with your clients- it will surely feel like your business is running you. Tune in to hear about just a few of the boundaries you'll want to set up as early as possible with your clients to avoid resentment, & burnout.

We all have them- days, and sometimes even weeks where we are just so annoyed, grossed out, or even pissed off about what we look like. There's a lot to consider when we have bad body image days. Some of those things are: -They're normal. If someone never has a bad body image day they are probably dead or dying. I don't say this to be dramatic or coy- but that's how important our bodies have been...

I used to wing my launches... hell, I used to wing my ENTIRE year. And because I was gritty, I could always pull it off.

HELMET EPISODE! You're going to need one for this one. Our body image story and our relationship with food is buried DEEP. Under hundreds if not thousands of layers of years worth of stories, social conditioning, and self-confirming biases that make us all feel what we've been taught to be true: our body is bad and must be managed AND our body and appearance is THE MOST IMPORTANT thing about us. K...

Have you ever watched someone do something and you think to yourself "it can't be THAT hard!"? ...then you do it, and you're frustrated that it IS hard? Then you attach some BS story to it feeling hard and want to quit? Yeah, that's expectation mismanagement, and it usually comes from a lack of understanding of what it actually takes to be good at something, what it actually takes to make somethin...

The online biz space is NOISY. There's ONE thing you need to focus on in order to stand out above the crowd. There are, obviously, a number of reasons why business owners don't make it. One of the BIGGEST reasons is that they're too vanilla, too afraid to make waves, and too afraid to niche down. Ultimately, this all boils down to having the balls to go against the grain, having a clear message an...
