Ep. 24 – A Pause & Pivot: Life as a Manifesting Generator

This is very Manifesting Generator of me… but I’m pausing the podcast (for now!) to make space for the next version to drop in. In this episode, I’m unpacking why following excitement, honoring pivots, and clearing space might just be our greatest superpowers.

Ep. 23 – The 5 Stages of Reconnecting with Yourself

Deep connection with others starts with the micro-decisions you make with yourself. In this episode, I opened up my journal archive and uncovered the five stages that helped me feel more grounded, more powerful, and more me. These aren’t overnight transformations – they’re subtle shifts that build over time. From listening to what your anxiety is trying to tell you, to noticing when you’re crossing your own boundaries, to spending money in ways that actually feel aligned. Wherever you are on your self-connection journey, my hope is that this episode helps you recognize how far you’ve come – and where you might want to go next.

Ep. 22 – The Sneaky Energy That’s Holding You Back

Saying “I’ll do it tomorrow” over and over is exactly what keeps us stuck. But why is that voice so convincing? Today I’m unpacking the sneaky energy of resistance — how it shows up in my own life (like not wanting to leave the corporate world or put myself out there), and how it quietly convinces us that something else is always more important than our growth. Let’s learn how to see it, nod, and keep walking – before it talks us out of everything we actually want.

Ep. 21 – For When You Feel Like the Odd One Out in Your Friend Group

Lately, I’ve felt like I’m orbiting around my friends’ lives, not really in them. These are people I love deeply — we have years of history — but our paths are starting to look really different. They’re settling into marriages and motherhood. I’m still chasing my wildest dreams. In this episode, I’m unpacking what it means to grow in a different direction than the people you love — and the courage it takes to keep evolving. How do you hold space for someone else’s dream while staying loyal to your own? And how do you know when things no longer feel aligned?

Ep. 20 – You Can't Move Cities Out of Fear - Trust Me, I Tried

I said yes to things in my 20s that make me want to scream in my 30s – and moving cities after getting robbed was one of them. I thought it was an empowering decision to move back home, but in hindsight it was rooted in fear. Today I’m talking about what happens when fear makes our decisions for us, and how learning to build internal safety has been the most freeing shift I’ve made. If you’ve ever felt like you had to run just to feel okay ormade decisions that now make you cringe a little — this episode is for you.
