Have you ever stopped to think about the passage of time? How it never stops; how it's always moving forward? It can be a terrifying thought: not ever being able to return to a moment in time, never being able to go backwards, to get something back, but it can also be a powerful motivator. In this episode, I invite my long-time BFF Katie Meegs to sit down and chat about the essence of time: what even is it? Join us as we talk about: The realization that time never stops, how we’re all...

HOT TAKE: Hard work is not required for you to have a massively successful business. The corporate world has trained us to romanticize the idea of working 80-90 hour weeks, maybe making six figures, but being stressed out and not having time for our family, friends, or the things that we love. We call it hard work, but there is a big difference between working hard and working efficiently. When I first started my business, one of my ultimate goals was to have more time freedom. I didn’t...

We waste so much time and energy worrying about making the ‘wrong decision.’ This episode is meant to remind you that what’s for you will not pass you. You can’t f**k up, pass up, or ruin your chances with the things meant for you. As a firm believer that the Universe always has our backs, allow me to be a shining example of how this is true: Though we met in high school, there was a time when my now-fiance and I did not speak. We dated in college, broke up, and went our separate ways,...

Do you want to be a normal person, living a normal, average life? Or do you want to live a big, unrealistic, better-than-you-could-have-imaged life?? It’s time to start being delusional. How did the most successful people get to where they are today? Do you think it was by taking the safe, expected route - or by taking risks and making decisions that went against what’s “normal” and “safe”? They likely had a lot of people who doubted them along the way, and were waiting for them to give up...

Hot Take: Not following your dreams is selfish.  Okay, how can sitting at a job you hate, day in and day out, be selfish?  Because by not living up to your full potential, you aren’t making the impact you’re meant to be making. Let’s face it: you’re likely not changing lives by sitting behind a desk copying and pasting numbers into a spreadsheet all day.  But imagine if you dream of being a fitness coach or starting a non-profit that helps underprivileged communities.  Think of all...

If you knew that you could succeed in whatever job you want, would you stay in the one you're in now? If another job offered more money or better benefits, would you go after those opportunities, or do you feel like you’re doing what you’re meant to be doing?  If you answered ‘no’ to any of the above questions, you are settling in your career.  “Okay… so what? Who isn’t? Everyone hates their job!” You’d never let your best friend settle for a relationship that wasn’t right for her, so why...
