Thought To Thing

What actually happens when you stop trying to do all the things, and go all in on just ONE offer? Alexa joined Expansion last May not even following me, having read the sales page exactly once. Eight months later she had a completely different business. This is that story. In this first episode of Expanded Stories   (a new series where I sit down with Expansion alumni and let them tell it in their...

So two Venus in Capricorn walk into a bar and sit down to talk about well basically everything to the point that we forgot we were recording a podcast. Desiree Pais is the founder of Benshen: a community, course, and movement that started with six women on a yoga mat in a Williamsburg living room while she kicked her ex-boyfriend out every Saturday morning. This vision grew to 30 women, then 40, t...

Okay hold my cigarette: you do deep, transformational work. Your know your shit. You know your body of work motherfucking changes and transforms people. But every time you sit down to write your landing page — or someone asks "so what do you do?" — you freeze. Because what you actually help people with isn't a three-month result. It's a seed. An identity. A becoming that takes...

A fun one. Your time scarcity is keeping you out of the life you desire. Stop saying "when I have time" You have time. In this episode, you’ll see me work 3h weeks during my busiest season all year, and manage my ENERGY instead. If I gave you infinite time right now, you still wouldn't do the million things you say you'd do with it. Because the problem was never time. It was al...

What if your marketing had nothing to do with what you post or sell — and everything to do with who you are? Most people think their marketing problem is a content problem (ie wrong niche, wrong hooks, wrong posting schedule). I hear this all the time. But embodied marketing is built on a different premise: people don't buy your offer, they buy you .  More specifically, they buy the transform...

NEW SERIES HELLO WE ARE SO BACK?! What comes to body when you hear the word responsibility ? For most of us, it's not good. It's heavy. It's more money, more responsibility said like a warning. It's the nervous system bracing for something it doesn't think it can hold. In this first episode of In the Room (a new series where I bring the juiciest conversations from my coach...

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Emmie Rae — writer, teacher, founder of The Daily Rest, and one of the clearest voices I know on rest, receptivity, and doing hard things gently. Emmie lives in Tokyo and has built a whole world around softness, devotion, and the kind of spaciousness that doesn’t make you less ambitious but makes you more HONEST. If you’ve been rethinking success, cr...

ALRIGHT HOLD MY MATCHATINI: There’s a version of you who says they want more money. I love that for ya. And then there's your nervous system, who is simply: terrified of MORE.  In this episode with your fav genz-ers we unpack why more wealth isn’t always a full-body yes, even when you consciously desire it. We’re talking about capacity over currency, and what actually happens in your body whe...

AAAAAAND e’re kicking off the year with one of my favorite humans on the planet and everyone’s favorite internet baddie: Isabel Taylor, my former therapist turned bestie and co-creator of A State to Create. This episode starts as a conversation about planning and quickly becomes what it actually needs to be: a real, grounded unpacking of clarity, vision, and what happens to your brain when the wor...

In this episode, I sit down with our resident astrologer / resident witch Kessli Hall, for a 2026 Insight. MY BABES, next year is giving baddie Olympics. We zoom out to the big collective shifts: outer planets moving from water + earth into fire + air (yin → yang), aka: the end of “dreaming about it” and the beginning of doing it. We talk embodied leadership, why being seen trying is about to be c...

OH MY GOD what a juicyyyy episode! I sat down with someone who has shaped entire eras of my life: philosopher, ecosomatics thinker, and regenerative guide Ximena Gabilondo! What begins as a reunion between past-life versions of ourselves ( jungle farming Maia and ecofeminist-activist Ximena) quickly becomes a masterclass in ecology, embodiment, and personal power. Together we explored why so many...

PART TWOOOOO BINSHES!!! Too juicy to do one. In this episode, I sit with Ximena again for Part II of our conversation on eros, power, and what it really means to be fully alive in your, YOUR body. We go into the myth of Lilith and Eve, why women’s desire has been treated as dangerous for thousands of years, fantasy novels as portals for reclaiming sensual power, and how witches, grandmothers, and...

This week, I sat down with my dear friend and former somatic therapist, Isabel , for our most requested podcast: expanded capacity. We recorded this one right from her home in Greece, after spending days talking about everything from functional freeze to creativity to what it actually takes to hold a bigger life — gently. Capacity has become such a buzzword online, but this episode brings it back...

Woah this one is a TREAT! Grab your journal and get ready to dive into what it truly means to have time freedom! In this episode, we go deep into time freedom, what it really means, why so many of us struggle to feel safe with it, and how to actually create it. Caley and I walk you through a powerful four-part framework she first taught inside Expansion (My mastermind), now adapted for time freedo...

In this episode, I sit with my dear friend and mentor Caley Dimmock , the woman who helped me take three months completely off this summer while my business kept growing, and my nervous system actually felt safe doing it. This conversation is everything I love: honest, layered, and SPICY. Caley and I go deep into what it really means to build a business rooted in freedom, not performance. We talk...

You know when a conversation feels like an ABSOLUTE transmission? In today’s episode, I sit down with my dear friend Chandresh Bhardwaj (CB)   that I met through a dream (Yes, tune in). Seventh-generation Tantra teacher, author, poet, and one of the most artful communicators I know, to talk about Tantra, polarity, death, destruction, rebirth, and what it means to become self-sourced . This episode...

This week I’m joined by my favorite person again (Lois) for a very special conversation on the Creative Living Principles!!!! We had way too much fun recording this episode (delirious nap-drunk and caffeinated as always), and ended up covering the first six principles from our list of 21 Creative Living Principles: Your voice isn’t fragile. Don’t treat it like glass. Art needs to be honest, not be...

This week I sat down with my beautiful friend and absolute force of nature, Marina Girgis, Expansion Round 5 queen and the visionary behind Vivacious Retreats. After Marina's 10 day Advanced Shadow Work retreat in The Netherlands, we went down the rabbit hole of shadow work as a path to liberation, and how bringing your shadows into the light is often all that’s needed to alchemize them. If y...

Eclipse Season & The Virgo–Pisces Portal: Shape-Shifting, Service, and Expansion YAY another series!

Think of this as your Eclipse Survival Kit as equal parts cosmic forecast and grounded reflection on how these transits are showing up in our lives, our businesses,...

So many of us live in functional freeze without even realizing it — stuck between “go, go, go” and total shutdown. Outwardly, we look like we’re functioning fine. Inside, we feel numb, resistant, disconnected, and unable to truly rest or create. In this deeply grounding conversation, I am joined once again by my beloved sister and somatic therapist, Isabel Taylor , to unpack what functional freeze...

Welcome to Creative Living After Hours, where we remember how to tell the truth. In this first episode, Lois + Maia sit down (chaotic, laughing hysterically, and fully unfiltered as per usual) to talk about what it really means to live creatively — not just to make things, but to inhabit life through the lens of creativity as a FORCE. We cover: 💧 Why “creativity as optimization” isn’t it (and why...

Stories are not just the way we make sense of our lives, they are the way we shape CULTURE. In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend and muse Chelsea Riffe, podcast coach, host of In My Non-Expert Opinion and Expansion round 4 queen to explore how using your voice goes far beyond visibility. Who else but the queen of resonance herself to talk about how YOUR story matters. We talk about how...

There comes a moment in every transformation when the old identity no longer fits—but the new one isn’t fully formed yet. That’s where the real shape-shifting begins.  In today’s episode, we talk about shapeshifting as a nervous system skill , what it really takes to shed outdated identities, and how to sit with the fertile discomfort of the “space between.” I share the behind-the-scenes of my own...

Expansion PSA: my 4-month deep mastermind (Expansion) is opening its doors to the waitlist only on May 5th (5.5 at 5:55 PM EST) . If you’ve been feeling the pull to dive in, make sure you’re on the waitlist right here —spots do tend to fly (as in, fully booked within a day or two kind of fly). And about this very special episode: The person that changed my life is here. We’re diving deep into soma...

Here's a different one 🌬️ The spirit doesn’t need proof. The spirit needs presence. Let's talk about all things Spirit . Not the aesthetic, not the performance, not the “how to feel aligned” kind of bullshit. Nope! This one is about what happens when you stop chasing clarity, purpose, or healing—and create a life quiet enough for something bigger to find you . I’m sharing the story of wh...
