Think about every fall rom-com montage — the bookstore scenes, the coffee walks, the cozy knits and apple crisp baking. 🍂 What if we borrowed those little cinematic rituals and added them into our real lives this season?

In this episode, I’m sharing the rom-com habits I’m weaving into my own fall — from bookstore strolls and cozy kitchen moments to layering outfits and romanticizing even the simplest errands. Because sometimes wellness isn’t about checklists or routines, it’s about making everyday life feel a little more like the movies.

✨ If you’ve ever wanted your own fall rom-com moment, this one’s for you.

How do you do it all?’ I get this question all the time — and here’s the truth: I don’t have hired help, and it’s not magic. It’s systems, structure, and a whole lot of action.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I balance content creation, acting, mom life, wellness, and all the little things in between. From batching content and using my planner, to daily laundry (yes, every day), meal planning, and making workouts non-negotiable — these are the habits and hacks that keep me going.

You’ll also hear how Ben and I tag-team when life gets busy, and why ‘doing it all’ isn’t about perfection — it’s about choosing what matters most and building rhythms that make the chaos manageable.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered how to keep up without burning out, this one’s for you.

Confession: I love a Reese’s as much as the next mom 🍫 But Halloween candy can feel like a slippery slope — one piece turns into ten, and suddenly you’re riding the sugar rollercoaster.

In this episode, I’m sharing simple, realistic tips to enjoy the candy without the guilt or the crash. From choosing your favorites, pairing sweets with real meals, and mom hacks for keeping balance, you’ll walk away with a plan to have fun and feel good.

✨ Because wellness should include joy — and sometimes that means a mini Snickers.

Let’s just say… this week was a week that was not on my 2025 bingo card. I lost my voice, got sick, had to cancel a commercial shoot, got replaced on another, and still somehow booked 3 new things— all while trying to take care of myself and a sick kid, and trying not to cry over my inbox.

This bonus episode is real life behind the highlight reel — funny, chaotic, totally unfiltered mom-actor-creator energy. No perfect advice here, just what it actually looks like when you’re doing it all (and barely keeping it together). LOL.

If you’ve ever had one of those weeks where you’re laughing, crying, and questioning everything at the same time — pull up a drink and join me. 🎬💚

Weight Loss will always be a hot topic for women because we go through so many changes over the course of our lives! From hormone changes in puberty to lifestyle changes in college and then pregnancy and perimenopause, our journey as a woman requires us to listen to our body and fuel it well in order to feel our best! Let me be very clear, YOU DO NOT NEED TO DIET or RESTRICT in order to lose weight. I lost 40 pounds in college and then I lost 40 pounds after both of my pregnancies/c-sections. I am fit and lean in my 40s and have maintained my weight loss for 2 decades because I live a simple healthy lifestyle and enjoy my food. Weight loss that lasts takes time and takes patience and once you learn how to lose weight in a healthy way, by fueling your body and loving it, you won't need to stress about weight gain/weight loss so much! I am sharing my TEN TIPS for sustainable weight loss with you and breaking it down in a simple and relatable way so that you can start to implement these ideas and see results for yourself!

I feel better in my 40s (even in Perimenopause) than I did in my 20s and I wanted to share the 5 things that I believe are really helping! Habits matter. What we do daily, even the small things, matter a lot after 40. How we approach our wellness and our mindset around our wellness really matter too. As an actress who experienced diet culture in L.A. and who somehow made it out of there a healed, glowing, wellness goddess... I am excited to share all the simple shifts I have made over the years that have helped me find real wellness!

Perfection is sneaky. It tells us we need to do more, be more, look better, or wait until everything is "just right" before we take action. In this empowering episode, Megan shares how perfectionism shows up in everyday life—especially for women juggling motherhood, ambition, and wellness—and how to move past it.

Whether you’ve been stuck waiting for the right time, afraid to show up messy, or constantly second-guessing yourself… this episode is your reminder that imperfect action is powerful.

Let this be your permission slip to start, to speak up, to show up—as you are.

BODi (Beachbody) announced on September 30th that they are closing the Network Marketing Model of the Business and are moving to a single level affiliate marketing model. This was devastating news to so many of my friends who have been working for the company (some for 10+ years) and earning substantial income through the NWM business model. I decided to step away from my business last year, even though I was having a lot of success, because I was having health issues and I was burned out and wanted to pursue other things. But I have never shared WHY...until now. So grab some tea and join me and my husband, Ben, as we get real and discuss everything!!

I was just a small town girl from Bakersfield, CA who always dreamed of moving to NYC and becoming a Broadway actor! My senior year at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, I was standing 3 blocks away when the first plane hit the World Trade Center.

I hope that by listening, you get to know me better and understand how authentic my desire is to motivate you to live your life to the fullest!

Rejection isn't the end, it's an opportunity to redirect to something else! I have been rejected for many things in my life from acting roles to colleges to relationships to job opportunities and even left feeling rejected from my goals. And if there is one thing that I can tell you from all of that, it is that rejection is not a bad thing, its a gift to reassess and redirect so that you can actually live into your purpose and create a life you love.

Summer travel is upon us! This week, I share about how I keep on track with my health and wellness goals while I'm traveling and more about my personal struggle with weight gain.  When I tried to lose 40 pounds (the first time), I started with my nutrition and although it was hard to cut out sugar and eat better, eventually it became easier.  I want to encourage you to prioritize your own nutrition and stay on track no matter what is going on in your life, because you are worth it and you deserve to feel and look amazing in your body.

Do you ever feel like you are stuck in this indecisive and jealous place?

Do you struggle with imposter syndrome and feeling like you are not worthy of your success or that somehow you are undeserving? Do you often doubt your abilities and expertise? Do you struggle with feeling successful despite your accomplishments? 

I have definitely struggled with Imposter Syndrome in the past and this week as I was preparing for a big presentation for work, I found myself feeling like an imposter.  As I was practicing my speech, I found myself having thoughts like...

The person who asked me to speak must have not had anyone else who could do it.  

Do I even really know what I am talking about?

There are hundreds of people more qualified than me.

I am not good enough. 

I am not successful enough to be doing this. 

Do any of these thoughts and fears sound familiar? 
If so, this is the episode for YOU!

Setting a goal just for the joy of it sounds like something that we would do naturally but when you think about “GOALS” you don’t typically think about JOY. You think about WORK.  But a balanced life includes joy and it is high time we started to enjoy life. When you can make a new JOY GOAL for each month and try to commit to it, your whole vibe will change. You will have more energy and more fun and you will have more balance in your life! And you might even see more success in other areas of your life too. Let me know what you think over on IG - I would love to hear your JOY GOAL for June!!

Do you find yourself stuck and worried about what other people will think about you? Are you not chasing your dream life because you are worried that someone will think you look stupid? Are you making decisions based on what you think other people think is cool rather than what you think is cool? 

We are CARE about others. But that does not mean we have to CARE what people think about us. And when we can allow ourselves to show up authentically and LIVE our LIFE to the FULLEST, and let go of the opinions of others, we can truly start living. 

I hope that this Episode inspires you to rise up and shine bright and stop caring so much about what someone might think, because your life is yours to live. And it may surprise you that most people will cheer you on rather than tear you down. And the ones who tear you down, were not really people who are meant to be in your life anyway. 

Stay strong, be confident and go live your life!!
