S2 | EP 32: How to Create More Good Energy in Your Life with Sarah Collins

What if good energy isn't something you're born with, but something you can intentionally create? In this week's episode, I'm joined by Sarah Collins, Gallup-Certified CliftonStrengths Coach, speaker, founder of Collins Collective, and creator of The Good Energy Club™. Sarah shares her personal story of losing her spark during the pandemic while navigating life with three young children and how that difficult season led her on a journey to discover what truly creates energy, joy, connection, and fulfillment. Together, we explore why so many people feel disconnected, the role technology plays in pulling us away from what matters most, and why fun isn't frivolous—it's an essential part of living a meaningful life. Sarah also shares her powerful insight that fun doesn't just happen. It is created through a combination of playfulness, connection, and flow—and when we intentionally create more fun, we create more good energy.

S2 | EP 31: How To Let Resentment Be Your Friend

What if resentment isn't something to avoid? In this episode of the Love Your Real Life podcast, we're taking a fresh look at one of the most uncomfortable emotions we experience: resentment. Instead of seeing it as something to suppress or get rid of, we'll explore how resentment can actually serve as a powerful guide, and points us toward unmet needs, unspoken boundaries, hidden desires, and areas of our lives that are asking for attention and what to do about it. You'll learn why resentment often develops when we're disconnected from ourselves, how ignoring it can create distance in our relationships and within our own hearts, and how to use it as valuable information rather than a source of shame. In this episode, you'll discover: * Why resentment is often a messenger, not a problem * The hidden needs and desires resentment may be revealing * How resentment can help you identify boundaries that need strengthening * Why resentment grows louder when we ignore its lessons * Practical steps to transform resentment into self-awareness and positive change Reflection Question: The next time resentment appears, instead asking, "Why do I feel this way?" try asking, "What is this trying to teach me?"

S2 | EP 30: Why Most Habit Advice Fails Women with Monica Packer

If you've ever struggled to stick with a morning routine, workout plan, self-care practice, or healthy habit, this episode is for you. Today I'm joined by Monica Packer, host of the About Progress Podcast and author of the upcoming book Sticky Habits. Monica's work has had a profound impact on me personally. As a member of her Supporters Club, I've learned so much about letting go of perfectionism and creating habits that actually work in real life. That's why I was so excited to bring her onto the podcast for this conversation. Together, we discuss why so many women feel like they're failing at habits, how traditional habit advice often misses the realities of women's lives, and why consistency may not mean what we've been taught it means. This conversation is full of practical wisdom, compassionate encouragement, and actionable strategies to help you create habits that support your life instead of adding more pressure. Key Takeaways 1. Consistency Doesn't Mean Perfection 2. Small Actions Matter 3. Self-Care Isn't Selfish 4. Progress Is Better Than Perfection 5.
