trimester zero: how I'm prepping my body for pregnancy

In this episode, I’m talking about something I’ve been nervous to share: trimester zero (aka the three months before trying to conceive) and how I’m prepping my body for pregnancy without spiraling, biohacking my life, or turning this into a full-time job. ✨ In this episode: * The supplements I’ve added and what I’ve phased out * Why I’m focusing on nervous system > optimization * The reminder that your body is not a project If you’re thinking about trying soon, already in the thick of it, or just feeling the pressure that women put on themselves in this season, this is me holding your hand through it. 🎙️ Listen every Tuesday for new episodes of Chief of Self, my cozy, big-sister podcast for mindset, growth, and the messy process of becoming your highest self.

how to get your spark back

In this episode, I’m talking about something I know so many of us go through but don’t always have language for: losing your spark. That feeling when everything feels harder, your energy is dull, and you just don’t quite feel like yourself. This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about clearing what’s blocking the version of you that’s already there. ✨ In this episode: * The role hormones, overstimulation, and life transitions play in burnout * The honesty practice that changed everything for me * Small habits that rebuild self-trust and momentum If you’ve been feeling off, disconnected, or like you’ve lost your energy lately, this episode is for you. Your spark isn’t gone. It’s just waiting for you to come back to yourself. 🎙️ Listen every Tuesday for new episodes of Chief of Self, my cozy, big-sister podcast for mindset, growth, and the messy process of becoming your highest self.

the advice I always give brides

In this episode, I talk about the advice I always end up giving brides: not about seating charts or timelines, but about how to actually feel on your wedding day. This is more of a mindset conversation around pressure, emotions, and how to stay present when everything feels big and fast and overwhelming. ✨ In this episode: * A realization that completely changed how I thought about my wedding * The part of weddings that no one really prepares you for emotionally * What actually helps you stay present when the day is flying by If you’re engaged, have a wedding coming up, or just feel like you’re heading into a really meaningful moment and don’t want to blink and miss it, this one’s for you. 🎙️ Listen every Tuesday for new episodes of Chief of Self, my cozy, big-sister podcast about mindset, growth, and figuring things out as you go.
