13:29

For a lot of us, this Christmas and New Year’s will be filled with both goodness and grief, and it can be hard to hold such different emotions at the same time. We’re all tired and ready for things to return to some kind of new normal, but it’s not there quite yet. In the meantime, I’m balancing all of my feelings – both light and heavy – and I wan…

Annual events always highlight how much you’ve changed from one year to the next. You know, those special days like New Year’s Day, Christmas, Thanksgiving … and the annual boob smash ;-) When I went in for my mammogram last year, I found the facility had made a change for the worse, and I did something that I wouldn’t have done the year before – o…

7:51

It’s Election Day 2020, and nothing is more important today than voting so your voice will be heard! I used to be a half-ass educated voter, but the 2016 election changed all of that for me.

My Body Image Breakthrough, Part 3 14:52

3+ y ago14:52

I'm Still Standing 9:15

4y ago9:15

9:15

This year started out rough for me, and it got worse with all that’s happening for everyone. But as the song says, “I’m still standing, better than I ever did.” I know so many other people are struggling, too, so I’m acknowledging that it’s not always rosy, easy, or pretty, and I see you. I honor your struggle, and you’re not alone. Listen in to he…

My Body Image Breakthrough, Part 2 16:38

In the previous episode, I shared how my body image nightmare began, what I made it all mean, and how I kept myself small as protection from disappointment, criticism, and life. This week, you’ll hear where I started looking for confidence – I didn’t have much of it inside myself, so I began by looking outside myself.…

The Power of Gratitude 12:22

4+ y ago12:22

12:22

Many years ago, someone gave me a Gratitude Journal. At first, I didn’t fully understand what it was for or what to do, but I went on and gave it a try. Little did I know that my life was about to implode and that this gratitude practice would help me more than I could have ever imagined. Listen in for how gratitude helped me through that difficult…

Hustling for My Worthiness 10:13

4+ y ago10:13

10:13

When I had a corporate job, there were days that I worked from 7 a.m. to midnight for months. I accumulated time off, but my boss discouraged using it – a vicious cycle, and I was the fastest hamster on that Wheel of Insanity. Now I know better and have my own business, yet I can still be worn down by beliefs that cause me to doubt myself and feel …

Not My Finest Moment 13:32

4+ y ago13:32

13:32

This wasn’t my finest moment, but I want to share it with you because it’s a good reminder that we never have any idea of what is going on within other people. Unless they tell us, we simply don’t know. So, be kind. And I know that can be hard because, clearly, I didn’t do it in this instance! 😊 But, it’s worth it.…

The Art of Letting Go 19:24

5y ago19:24

19:24

Let’s talk about letting stuff go! I used to be an emotional hoarder – I held on to grudges and clung to feelings and relationships that were clearly dead. I wasted so much time! I’ve learned that letting go of pain, forgiving myself and others, and being willing to move forward have been the best paths for me. Listen in for my stance on letting go…

Anniversary, Connection & a Funeral 10:24

10:24

How do you want to be remembered? For making the most money? Paying all your bills on time? Making partner faster than anyone else? Driving the nicest car? Or for something different…? Apparently my generous, kind and quiet neighbor aimed for that “something different.” I showed up for his funeral, so he wouldn’t be alone, and, well … he wasn’t. An…

Be Too Much 8:12

5y ago8:12

8:12

For my entire life, I’ve been told that I am too much: too loud, too big, too smart, too bossy, too mouthy, too blonde, too freckly. It hurt so badly that I started wanting to be smaller – physically and figuratively. But I’m just not a small person… I have a BIG personality! I have a BIG body! I have BIG energy! I have a BIG light about me! And my…

Change the Inside and the Outside Will Follow 8:37

8:37

In the 7+ years that I’ve been a life coach, I’ve found one thing to be absolutely true – if you change the inside, the outside will follow. Part of my new thinking came from quotations I’ve heard or seen which gave me hope and kept me going. Listen in for 13 statements that shaped this new and better way of thinking about myself, other people, and…

Don't Judge Me 11:47

5y ago11:47

11:47

If judging were a full-time job, we would alllllll be billionaires. But being judgmental doesn’t pay; it costs you, instead. Judging creates drama and damages our connections to friends, family, and coworkers ... but being supportive of other people’s decisions (even when we don’t agree with them) gives everyone a chance to feel great! For a more p…

Feel the Suck 11:53

So, listen in to hear three ways to effectively navigate the suck (both yours and others) and the three things that make…

Everything I Do Is Courage 14:35

5y ago14:35

14:35

When I look back, I see that everything good that’s ever come to me has been a result of being courageous, and with that courage was its sidekick, vulnerability. I wasn’t raised to be comfortable with vulnerability – quite the opposite! – but with learning and practice, now I embrace it. Listen in to find out what vulnerability is and isn’t, who yo…

Every day, I think about freedom: freedom from my body, freedom from negative thoughts, freedom from the sadness I feel about myself at times, freedom from uncomfortable clothes and shoes, freedom from self-violence… …freedom to be who I am right now, in this minute, without feeling that I have to change in order to be accepted.

6 Ways to Boost Your Confidence 18:06

18:06

Confidence is at the core of how we move through the world, whether we are lacking it or have it by the truckload. It’s something we wear every day and use to make every decision. What creates or breaks our confidence? What we believe about ourselves, what other people say about us that’s believable, what we interpret, and anything else we choose t…

Investing in Yourself 12:46

5+ y ago12:46

12:46

When you invest in yourself – whether you’re investing time, attention, energy, or all three – the payback is immeasurable. My $45 investment in a 4-hour class led to a 4-figure investment in a months-long training that changed my life, my work, and my relationships forever. You can never go wrong with investing in yourself. Listen in for how my ed…

To finish out this month’s theme of New Year, Same You, I want to talk about how we get in our own way. We can be our biggest critic, which means we can also be our biggest obstacle. I want each of us to become our biggest cheerleader and supporter! To do that, we have to understand how we are blocking our energy, power, desires, and blessings. Lis…

Are You Showing Up? 5:51

5:51

So, I’ve talked about letting go of expectations, understanding what we want and what’s holding us back, and how we talk to ourselves … now it’s time to show up! Showing up sounds easy, but sometimes it’s not. We often jump through a lot of hoops – coaching ourselves into it and even sometimes white-knuckling it – to make an appearance. Showing up …

Compliment Rather Than Criticize 14:31

5+ y ago14:31

14:31

I recently saw something like: “It’s easy to be critical, try being complimentary.” Wow! How true, and it seems so easy! But it’s not always easy. It requires effort and practice for some of us … and by “us,” I’m including myself. But imagine putting that positivity into the world and the power it has to uplift, encourage, and inspire others.

Do The Right Thing 12:25

We create rules for ourselves that are not necessarily true. A lot of times, our rules (or stories or beliefs) were created when we were younger, when we had no idea that they were untrue or twisted. Our rules could be based on other people’s values, beliefs, desires, or even their jokes. Unverified rules ramble around our minds, running our lives …
