The Rewrite

You don't find yourself. You build yourself — one decision at a time. There's a phrase we hear constantly: I'm just trying to find myself. And every time Jamie hears it, something gives her pause. Because what if the whole idea that there's one fixed, authentic version of you just waiting to be uncovered is actually the thing keeping you stuck? In this solo episode, Jamie gets into...

Have you been telling yourself you'll start when you feel ready? When you have more clarity, more confidence, more time, more of whatever it is you've decided you need first? In this solo episode, I'm getting into one of the things that comes up most with my clients, and honestly, with me too. Because the waiting never actually ends. There's always one more piece that needs to fall...

Have you ever tried to change something about yourself (a habit, a thought pattern, a belief) and felt motivated, did the work, and then a few weeks later found yourself right back where you started? In this solo episode, I'm breaking down the real science behind why change doesn't stick, and what it actually takes to build a new neural pathway that lasts. Spoiler: it has nothing to do wit...

In this episode of The Rewrite, I'm sitting down with Emma Tessler (founder and CEO of Ninety Five Media) for a conversation that is equal parts business strategy and real talk about what it actually means to build something you love without losing yourself in the process. Emma's story is one of unexpected pivots, quiet hustle, and bold leaps. From studying interior design at the Fashion I...

Nobody talks about the middle. And I think that's exactly the problem. We celebrate the beginning - the decision, the launch, the exciting new idea. We celebrate the finish line - the goal hit, the milestone reached, the success story. But everything in between? That's where things get quiet. That's where most people quietly give up. And that's exactly what this episode is about. I...

Have you ever caught yourself saying, "I'll do it when things calm down"? Or "I'll start when I feel ready"? In this solo episode, I'm calling out one of the sneakiest ways we keep ourselves stuck - the "I'll do it when" trap. It sounds reasonable. It even feels smart, like you're being strategic, waiting for the right moment. But here's the tr...

In this episode of The Rewrite, I'm sitting down with Jaclyn Shaw (spiritual mentor, best-selling author, and sought-after speaker) for a conversation that goes straight to the soul of what it means to own your voice, trust your truth, and build a business that is unapologetically, fully you. Jaclyn's story is one of divine orchestration, hard pivots, and hard-won conviction. From running...

This episode is a little different. I wasn't planning on recording this one, but life happens. So here we are. My uncle passed away this week, and he was not just an uncle. He lived with us growing up. He helped raise us. He walked me down the aisle when I got married. He was really the only real father figure we had. And this loss hits hard. I've been thinking a lot the last few days abou...

In this solo episode, I'm talking about something that throws a lot of people off more than they realize: the feeling of being completely clear one day, and then the next day thinking "Oh my God, what was I even thinking?" You doubt the plan, question the direction, feel foggy, start second-guessing everything. And it's confusing because nothing actually changed - yesterday you w...

In this solo episode, I'm getting more personal than usual. I'm talking about some of the things I used to believe about myself - not because they were true, but because they were repeated enough. Either I was repeating them to myself internally, or I was taking things other people were saying and internalizing them, creating my own narrative in my head. I think it matters because a lot of...

In this solo episode, I'm talking about something that's been happening in my life lately: full spring cleaning mode. Every drawer decluttered, every closet organized, getting rid of all the things. And yes, part of this was maybe to avoid doing my taxes, but there's something deeper happening here. When there's clutter everywhere, your brain is constantly processing it. Even if yo...

In this conversation with my friend Sharai Dawn, a boutique brand strategist and creative director who helps established entrepreneurs crystallize what they're known for and stop diluting their message, we dive into what it takes to rewrite your life when you've spent decades being told who to be. Sharai's story takes us from growing up as a Jehovah's Witness (which she describes a...

In this episode, I'm talking about something a lot of people feel but don't always have the language for: the feeling of "why does this keep happening?" Maybe in one season of your life it looked like constantly overgiving in friendships - always being the one who shows up more, the one who adjusts, the one who keeps the peace instead of saying what you actually need. And then la...

In this solo episode, I'm breaking down what I actually mean when I say "rewrite your life", because I use that phrase a lot and I know it can sound big or vague or like one of those things that means something different to everyone. So I wanted to slow it down and explain where this idea came from, how it connects to your brain, how it actually works, and what rewriting your life re...

In this conversation with Rebecca Stanisic, a writer with nearly two decades of experience, speaker, and content strategist who helps small businesses create content with less stress, we dive into what it means to be an "accidental entrepreneur." Rebecca's journey started with a parenting blog in 2009 - she had a baby and a toddler and just wanted "a little piece of the internet...

Most people are exhausted long before they ever do anything. Not because the task is hard, but because their brain has been leaking energy all day without them even realizing it. Small leaks. Constant leaks. Death by a thousand tiny demands. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down the five biggest energy leaks that drain your brain before you've even started your day, and what actually hel...

In this conversation with my friend Carly Hickey, a registered nurse with over 10 years of ICU experience and founder of ACE Planning Company, we dive into something most people never think about until it's too late: preparing for aging, serious illness, and the unexpected. Carly helps individuals and families get proactive about advance care planning - making hard conversations feel less over...

In this solo episode, I'm getting brutally honest about something that has tripped me up more times than I care to admit: my resistance to taking messy action. I've spent years fine-tuning things in the background - tweaking, editing, reworking, adjusting the font, rewriting the offer, changing the idea, making the plan better, clearer, more strategic. And on the surface? That looks produc...

In this conversation with my friend Andrea Krones, co-founder and creative director at Inkling Design, we dive into what it actually takes to build a design and web agency over 21 years - including all the undercharging, overdelivering, and confidence-building that happened along the way. Andrea supports heart-centered, female-founded businesses with branding, websites, and marketing materials, an...

Your brain is getting flooded with millions of bits of information every second. You can't possibly focus on all of it. So your reticular activating system (RAS) steps in and decides what you pay attention to. Think of it like a bouncer at the door of your brain - some things get in, everything else stays outside. But here's the wild part: your RAS decides what gets through based on what you belie...

Why do I keep saying I want this, but my actions don't match? Why am I resisting something I know is good for me? Why does change feel so exhausting even when it's something I choose? If you've ever wondered this, you're not alone, and you're definitely not broken. As a certified neuroscience coach, I can tell you this is literally how your brain is built. This frustration show...

In this conversation with my dear friend Carly Ottaway, we dive deep into what it actually takes to write a book, share your story, and step into the identity of "bestselling author" when imposter syndrome is screaming at you. Carly is the author of Coming Home: Your Path to Your Favorite Self and Permission to Do It Your Way , creator of The Mirror Effect, and founder of the award-winning boutiqu...

If you've ever felt inconsistent, behind, or like you keep making promises to yourself that you don't keep, this episode is for you. Self-trust isn't glamorous. It's not something people brag about on Instagram. But it's one of the most practical things you can work on if you want anything in your life or business to actually change. And as a certified neuroscience coach, I can tell you: this isn'...

In this conversation with my friend Stephanie Eagleson, we dive deep into what it means to honor your intuitive gifts, even when they don't fit into the box of your profession. Stephanie is an RMT, energy healer, and spiritual mentor who supports others in connecting deeper within themselves as both human and divine beings—and her journey from working in a gym to building her own healing sanct...

If you're sitting here in mid-January thinking you're already behind on your goals, let me stop you right there: you're not late. You're right on time. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down why your new year doesn't actually start on January 1st for most of us, and the neuroscience behind why that's completely normal. Spoiler: your brain picks the reset that feels rea...
