Something I hear so often from the folks I coach is that they wake up looking at their huge to-do list for the day and they start worrying about which thing to tackle first, or if it’s even the right thing to do. If you can relate to these feelings of overwhelm and anxiety and…

The holidays are upon us. Now, this can be a wonderful time of the year, filled with joy and happy memories from childhood. However, especially if you’re on the path of healing and reparenting yourself, this time of year can throw up some real challenges. You might be heading back to your hometown to spend…

Last week, we talked about failure and how it ties into the concept of true self-care and self-love. On the podcast today, I’m going to be continuing on this topic of failure in a way you might not have considered before – reveling in it and going for it all-in, despite the fear that holds…

I’m diving into the concept of failure today, all within the continued context of self-care and the think-feel-act cycle we’ve been discussing over the last few weeks. In our culture, failure is often taught to us as something to avoid if you want to succeed; so I see you, if you’re scared of failing and…

How do you live the life of your dreams? This is what we all want, isn’t it? We also want it to be easy, but the truth is it takes some bold new actions to change the course of your life to what you dream about your future self having. We’ve been exploring the think-feel-act…

Awareness is key in practicing this concept that you…

In our conversation about self-care, I introduced you to the think-feel-act cycle last week and the importance of thinking about your thinking to evaluate and understand them better. Today, we’re diving into the second part of this cycle; feeling. It’s vital to understand how our feelings play a part in our results and in going…

Last week, we talked about the importance of showing up for your self-care from a loving place. I’ve had many clients in the past who show up saying they want to lose 10 pounds. We work together and they lose that weight. But then their target weight drops another five pounds, and the cycle goes…

The topic of self-care is so prevalent in our culture right now, and it’s being marketed to us in a thousand ways. We all absolutely deserve self-care, but what I see is a confused message and understanding of what it truly means. You might think of a bubble bath, getting a manicure, or going out…

We’ve been talking about communication in the last few episodes, and today we’re touching on a communication habit that I see so many clients struggle with. Many of us don’t know how to switch from indirect to direct communication, and I’m constantly trying to shift my own communication patterns (with lots of self-compassion, of course) to…
