Episode 31: My Mom Died

Episode 31: My Mom Died

In this episode, I'm sharing honestly about grief, loss, community, and what it feels like when your world changes overnight. We talk about: • Watching my mom die and the complicated reality of traumatic grief • Why grief deserves to be witnessed • The difference between "let me know if you need anything" and people who simply show up • The small acts of love that carried me through • How people live on through stories, memories, and community • Why trusting your instinct may be the greatest gift you can give someone who is grieving This isn't an episode about fixing grief. It's an episode about witnessing it. And if you're grieving too, this is me witnessing yours a little bit too.

Episode 30: Jump Scare

Ever feel like something is off… but you can't quite see what it is? That's a blind spot. In this episode, I walk you through a real blind spot read (shared with permission) so you can hear exactly how I think, what I look for, and how I help clients get unstuck fast. We're talking about: * Why you end up stuck in situations longer than you want to be * The pattern of managing other people's emotions instead of being direct * What it actually looks like to set a clear, kind boundary * How your core values can get you into trouble when they're out of alignment If you've ever said, "I know better, I'm just not doing better," this episode will hit.

Episode 29: When You've Outgrown Therapy (And What To Do Next)

I get this question all the time. "Am I right for coaching or should I be in therapy?" In this episode, I'm breaking it down clearly and honestly. I share why I built my coaching business after working as a therapist with ambitious women who had met their treatment goals… but still wanted growth, reflection, and support. The truth is, they didn't need therapy anymore. They needed a different model. We're talking about: * When therapy is the right place to start * How to know if you've outgrown the therapy model * The gap where you're not in crisis… but you're not where you want to be either * What coaching actually offers that's different There's nothing wrong with you if you're in that in-between space. It just might mean the kind of support you need has shifted. If you're finding yourself thinking, "I know better… I'm just not consistently doing better," this episode is for you.

Episode 27: Petty or Peaceful?

A question every zesty queen asks eventually: Am I petty or peaceful? In this episode, Cassandra explores how "keeping the peace" often turns into quiet resentment, why honesty without regulation can turn petty fast, and how reactions are data, not flaws. The work isn't judging the reaction. It's getting curious about what's underneath.
