The New Sensitive

Hi guys, I'm bored, home alone in self-isolation, and starting a new series: Weird Sh*t That Works. These are the products and things I know, use, trust and love and want to share with you. I'll be doing these every 1-2 days. Today? My evening skincare routine! Future eps will be morning skincare; weird skincare gadgets & approaches I use; makeup; general well-being; body relaxation...

This week, I get on my soapbox and talk about one of my personal passions: why I think intentional self-discovery helps fuel nourishing self-care, which then allows us to show up to create the world that we believe we need. I connect self-knowledge to self-nourishment and why that matters more now than ever for us to be able to show up in the ways that are important. If we can't create our ow...

"Most of us know what an unhappy relationship with food feels like. We may feel frustrated or annoyed or out-of-control or embarrassed or secretive. But what causes that unhappy relationship?" That's the question posed -- and answered! -- by life coach Katie Seaver, who joins me on the podcast today for a wide-ranging conversation about our relationships to eating, dieting, body ima...

Earlier this week I did a Facebook Live breaking down common terms you might hear as you delve into your own self help and awakening journeys, and I'm bringing it to you on this podcast too. I define everything from what a boundary looks like, to what codependency means, to what an inner child is and why we all have one, to talking about shadow work and much more. I found when I started my ow...

I recently had a client write to me about all the shame she felt around the amount of support she needed in her life. She says she feels she needs extra support; feels shame around the amount of support she hires and pays for; and wonders if this all means she can't trust herself. Going off of this topic, I talk about the difference between getting nourishing support and not trusting yourself...

Valentine's Day is over but I'm still talking all about self-compassion and self-love on today's episode of the Sunday Soother. What is self-compassion? How is it different from self-indulgence? Why can it actually -- gasp -- make you MORE motivated to do things instead of letting yourself off the hook? And instructions on creating a "self-compassion mantra." The Sunday So...

It's Valentine's Day and I felt called to record a special bonus episode on my love and dating journey -- and it's been A JOURNEY in all senses of the word. I talk about my codependent patterns, my fear of abandonment, recognizing I was dealing with low self-worth in relationships, the shame I felt around being single, and the tools I used to move past it. The Sunday Soother is a sp...

I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that people are lacking a sense of the spiritual or mystical or meaning or structure in their lives today — something that the function of organized religion used to provide in society. But organized religion isn’t really a safe space for many people to turn these days — or a space where atheists or people who don’t overall believe in the common narrative of a B...

"I set out to change the societal view of singlehood." "Dating apps can be a form of self-harm." "The biggest thing I have manifested is self-worth." These are the gems that came out of my podcast interview today with Shani Silver, a writer and essayist who is creating conversations about how society views singledom, and how we can change it. Shani and I get deep into...
