This is a recording of a live workshop I did called Inner Badass. It was a Fear Workshop to transform anxiety, harness self-doubt, and cultivate resilience to live unapologetically and chase your wildest dreams. And it was pretty popular, so I thought I would share it with you here. In this episode, I share: Powerful techniques to regulate your nervous system and keep fear in check, so it doesn't rule your life.How to build a resilient mindset that turns fear into fuel for growth and helps...

Our brains are so damn clever - and they're really good at hiding our anxiety and overthinking... One of the best things I’ve ever done for my mental health was identifying when my anxiety brain is doing the talking. You see, our anxiety is generally built upon thought patterns that run on autoplay and aren’t our true thoughts. The more you can recognize it, the easier it is to shift the pattern. Similarly, our behaviors can shift in subtle, sneaky ways when anxiety is creeping back into...

In honor of Valentine's Day, I'm sharing some of the big lessons I've learned in the last decade of dating, including all the ways I used to get it wrong. As an anxious attachment type, I would do crazy things while dating - putting on lots of masks, over-giving with serious mom energy, and clinging to those I slept with. It wasn't pretty, but the worst part was my lack of communication and awareness of my own needs and desires while dating. Now, after years of working on my anxiety and...

January is all about setting new intentions and a bunch of epic goals for you to dominate throughout the year! Are you with me?! Or... maybe not?

Hey human, today's episode is an easy reminder that it's sometimes better to take things really easy and coast through life. I looked at the start of December and realized I had two options: I could fight to the "finish line" and hustle my way to big goals closing out 2022.

How much time I spend on my phone is generally a big indicator of my mental health.

I openly joke about my tendency to "lay things down at God/Universe's feet... only to pick it back up again." Do you relate to this? Over the last five years, I've focused so much energy on building faith in myself and trusting my own mind, abilities, and humanness. In the process, I pulled further away from believing in anything else. Trust the Universe? Nope, I'll just work harder and do more, thank you. And that's no longer working for me. So this year, I'm focusing my word of the year...
