Ready to join the movement? Because we believe that you are your most important work.
I want you to imagine this. You are on vacation. It's the middle of the night. And you are lying there wide awake, drafting an email in your head to a manager who is fast asleep. You did everything right. You bought the second phone. You left the laptop at home. And you are still here at 2 a.m., writing a message you will not send, in a bed you paid good money to relax in.
The thing that no productivity hack will tell you is that the problem was never your devices. Two phones cannot fix a brain that never learned how to stop. Technology is not the fix. It never was.

If you've spent any time lately scrolling through LinkedIn looking for your next career move, I want to ask you a question: do you actually feel closer to finding your next step? Or do you just feel deeply confused, slightly anxious, and completely overwhelmed?
Today, we need to talk about why LinkedIn is designed to keep you confused, and why figuring out what's next doesn't happen inside a search filter. It happens when you discover your Edge.

I want to talk about the dream so many of us have had at one point or another.
The dream of having so much money that you do not have to work. Where you could quit, walk away from all of it, and finally do what you actually want to do.
No more worrying about whether a risk is too risky. No guilt about whether you are carrying your weight for the family if you decide to do something different. Just enough freedom that the pressure lifts and the choice becomes yours.

If you're not trying to blow up your life in the process, you don't have to.
I want to start there, because there comes a point where we're ready to make a change to our career, and the very next thought is, how do I do this?
But that's not really the question. What we're actually asking is: how do I do this without blowing up my life? How do I do this while maintaining my income? How do I do this without making the same mistakes I made last time?

Last week we talked about finding your Superpower Edge™, the place where your strengths, your motivators, and your personality meet. That's the work only you can do. But knowing your edge and actually getting paid to live in it every day are two different things. And the space between them has a name. It's the skill gap.
So many of us ask the same painful question. If I know what my dream work is, why don't I have it yet? There are really only two reasons. It's your mindset, or it's your process. Today I want to talk about the process. Because once you know your zone of genius, once you have your edge, the next question isn't "what." It's "how." How do you build the skills that turn that gift into a life?

I want to talk about your zone of genius, and why it was never a job title.
Here's the trap I see so many accomplished people fall into. They decide their zone of genius lives inside a job. And the moment they do that, their entire happiness and fulfillment becomes a job too. Their sense of whether they're okay rises and falls with their work. That is a really fragile way to live.
Because here's the truth. Your zone of genius isn't a role. It's a way you show up in the world. It's the thing you do so naturally you barely notice it. And once you see it that way, the question changes. It stops being "what role do I want," and it becomes "what's the work only I can do," and then, "where is that valuable?"

I've been thinking a lot about being stuck lately, because some of the best moments of my life were the ones where I was stuck and then became unstuck. It is so satisfying to look back at the things that used to be problems and realize they aren't problems anymore. So let's talk about why you feel stuck even though nothing is wrong.

Welcome to Episode #242 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast.
Here's something no one tells you: the confusion is normal. More normal than anyone admits.
I think even the people who look like they have it all figured out feel it. The lawyer, the doctor, the person in the role you'd assume is settled for life. They still wonder how to make it work, what they actually want, what to do with all the potential that hasn't been used yet. No matter the field, there comes a point where you start asking, what do I want next? Maybe that's a new role. Maybe it's a change in how you're living. Or maybe you just know that the way you're working right now isn't working anymore.

For the last several years, I came to an important realization that has fundamentally changed my every day experience for the better. It was the realization that my deepest goals are not to be an empire-building, full-time entrepreneur nor was it to be a high-powered corporate leader.
My deepest goal is to have my quality of life feel internally free, fully expressed, financially secure, deeply impactful, and emotionally alive. This is why today's podcast on what would it take to become work optional is going to help you consider how letting go of work and seeing it as a choice can change your life.

I have been creating, attending and leading retreats, conferences and events for the last 25 years and I wouldn't be where I am today without them. Yet they are an investment of time, energy and resources to attend, so the question of getting your ROI or return on investment from an event is often top of mind whether that's when you're thinking of attending one, during the event itself or after you return.
Today's topic on how to 5 ways to 10X the ROI of retreats, events and conferences are the real and tangible ways that I have practically and energetically created that much value each time.

One of the most frequent questions I have been asked recently is about having a family assistant.
I will be out with friends, casually mention a family assistant, and suddenly people want to know everything. "Tell me more," is what I hear. And if I do not? They will find me before I leave and ask anyway.
What do they do? How do you find one? Why did you decide to do this?
After enough of these conversations, I realized this topic was going to be helpful for a lot of people, which is why I am here today.

Welcome to the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Today, I want to share a story with you about someone who didn’t wait until January to change her life. She started in the fall, and by the time January came, she was already living differently.

Welcome to Episode #232 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast If you’re in a season where everything feels full — your calendar, your to-do list, your mind — you’re not alone.
Between end-of-summer travel, back-to-school routines, work meetings, and family obligations, it can feel like time is something you’re constantly chasing but never catching.
And yet, there’s a quiet pull that says: “Something needs to shift.” More space. More clarity. More time to think and lead — not just manage and survive.
This isn’t just about being more efficient. It’s about building a life where you can grow, lead, and evolve without burning out.
So today, I’m sharing a 3-step framework I use with my coaching clients to help them create more time — even in the busiest seasons of their lives.
Because you don’t need to do more. You need to create differently.

As we get more advanced in our careers, there’s often a feeling of not wanting to give up everything you worked so hard for in the process of making any kind of change.

Either way, the thought of change can feel scary and we wonder what lies ahead if we make this next move.

Welcome to episode #212 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. One of the common misconceptions that I see both professionally and personally is that people don’t think they’re leadership material if they’re not loud, aggressive, direct and extraverted. Leadership, however, isn’t a personality trait that you innately have or don’t have - it’s a skill that you develop - and it pays dividends for years to come when you develop these skills. Today’s podcast is going to help you understand the difference between the personality and skill of leadership and help you lead even more authentically.

Welcome to episode #211 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Taking time off is both a skill and an art. Often we feel like we’re just running off leaving things undone and hoping that no one calls us while we’re gone but realizing that because of the way things are, those emails and calls are going to happen. Or we feel like we don’t deserve to take time off until we’ve earned it via finishing the project or the big thing that’s looming over us so we don’t ever take real breaks. We just are on this constant alert, somewhat attending to work while also not. On today’s podcast, we’ll dive into not just how you can plan your work around time off but how you can do it in a way that has you feeling like a boss.

Welcome to episode #210 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When we’re struggling with finding the “right” job or the career path that we think will be the most fulfilling, we often think that there is only one thing that will create happiness: getting our career “right.” Knowing our one path. Getting that one job or promotion. Or maybe even not working at all. Finding that one job thing that makes us the happiest.

When you’re a busy professional who either has a corporate career or a business you’re growing, you’re juggling the competing demands of work and your personal life. We know that we’re spending so much time on surface level things and that we need to spend more time doing deeper work or just having time to really attend to our personal lives so that we can focus on our health, family and decisions about what’s next.
Yet, how do you take that time off if there’s so much to do?

Achievers, do you love the feeling of checking off your to-do list? In fact, you might even put things on your to-do list that you’ve already done to then check them off. You celebrate how you are maximizing every waking moment.
Achievers are often the person who gets things done so you feel the constant itch to be productive all the time and at the beck and call of others. Yet, what keeps achievers awake at night is thinking of the really important things that they still haven’t done that matter to them. Their next career move, the next big work idea, their families, developing their people and making the plan for what’s next.
So they tackle the next day with renewed vigor, thinking “if I just get through the to-do list, I’ll have time to figure out how to have more time to do what matters and to make space for deep thinking and work.”

Pushing through pain and tough moments is part of the jobs we’ve decided to take on. We often have the mental pictures of success as being those who are martyred, dying and just making it through life while making lots of money or finally achieving the status they desire. But, is it really true that you need to be unhealthy to be successful? Is it a requirement?

Welcome to episode #206 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. One of the sneaky beliefs of professionals that keep them where they are is thinking that they can’t make any changes because they should be grateful.
“I should be grateful….but”. Every time you think about change, a sense of guilt comes over you.
Life is pretty good so why rock the boat?
Today’s podcast on how you can be grateful and still make changes will help you understand why you feel that guilt and also you can keep gratitude from getting in the way of allowing your life to unfold.

Welcome to episode #205 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Have you ever experienced burnout? The kind of chronic fatigue where you’re tired and running on reserves for more than just a day or a week at a time?

Welcome to episode #204 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Last week, I went to Portugal on a retreat and it reminded me yet again of something I’ve been working on for a long time: not doing everything myself. Somewhere between taking radical responsibility and the ideas of leaning in, I gave so much of myself that I emptied my tank. I was capable and have already figured so many things out, so why did I need to go? Did I need more help, yet again?

Welcome to episode #201 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When you’re surrounded by people who complain about their boss, workload and pretty much the overall business of life - it’s easy for you to also think that work is just not for you.

Today’s podcast will help bust this idea that you’re supposed to be unhappy at work and will help you become the outlier who doesn’t feel the sense of dread and Sunday Scaries each week.

Welcome to episode #186 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. We all have these moments when we realize that life was meant to be lived, truly lived. Moments when we wake up and decide to finally do the things we want to do. The life around us is created every time we are inspired to action and we find that without that level of deep emotion and action, our life as we know it wouldn’t be the same. This is the gift of staying present and awake. Every day, we have the opportunity to find and draw inspiration from the world around us. It is the creative force of our lives and it is why we need to move with inspiration.

Welcome friends to Episode #156 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Confidence is an elusive term. We think it’s something we’re either born with or given in spades, yet if this was the case we might as well give up on doing anything new or different. We also know that if we felt more confident, we’d likely be able to have the life we want sooner. It’s worthwhile for us to be able to create and build confidence at work. Let’s spend some time today debunking confidence and reviewing what it actually means to be confident in work and life.

With all of the uncertainty in the world - SVB and constantly wondering when the next recession will be - if we’re already in it - and that feeling of shakiness when you think the world is falling apart - we want to feel grounded.

We may want this feeling of deep trust, but we think it’s so hard to achieve. In today’s podcast we’re focusing on easy but effective spiritual practices that will help you build that connection.

Welcome friends to Episode #147 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When you’re starting to see the fruits of your labor come to fruition and you have the life you wanted for yourself, what do you do next? Often, we wonder if this is as good as it gets or if we should just be expecting the eventual downfall after a big win. I have a third option for you. Increasing your tolerance for joy and stillness so that you can anchor into your success long enough that it becomes who you are, not just who you want to be. Long-term success comes from patience. Patience comes from tolerating more of the emotions that you may struggle holding. Since joy and stillness is a precursor for expansion of our businesses, careers, health and lives - this will be the topic for today’s podcast. How to increase your tolerance for joy and stillness.

Welcome friends to Episode #132 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When you start to feel disengaged, stressed or burned out at work or in your personal life - it often causes you to pause. You start to wonder what’s the point of doing this work or living life this way? Especially when the never-ending to-do list keeps growing and the problems keep piling up, we start to lose our motivation for sustaining life in this way. This is when we ask ourselves the question, “what’s wrong with me?” or “what’s wrong with the way I’m living?” Essentially, we want to know why life just doesn’t feel quite “right”. This is often due to a disconnection between who we are and who we are when we are working. Whether your work revolves around your personal life or family - or revolves around a business and organization - it’s the same. We want to bring our whole selves to work. Today’s podcast is about the ways we can begin to be more whole even in our work.

What if you are in a marriage, partnership or organization and you can’t act alone? How do you still achieve your own goals? Today’s podcast is on creating synchronicities with others.

Welcome friends to Episode #123 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Life doesn’t always turn out exactly the way we thought it would. Perhaps you’ve had a loose idea of the type of person you would become or the kind of work you would do and now you’re questioning it all. Perhaps you’ve never known exactly what you would do and you’ve surprised yourself with where you’re at now. How do you find meaning in where you are and where you are going? How do you receive those nudges from the Universe telling you that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be? Often, synchronicities help us realize that the way life is unfolding is more perfect than we could have imagined it to be. Yet, how do we create those synchronicities? Those aha moments of connection and realization. Today, we’re going to share how to create synchronicities.

Welcome friends to Episode #122 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. If you’ve ever had an idea, desire or ambition and thought to yourself, “But is this even possible? Is this real?” - you know that self-doubt often keeps you second guessing yourself. You know that perhaps you can play a little bigger and more bolder in your life, but you don’t do it. When that level of safety seems to pervade and the worry about what other people will think about what you’re doing is bigger than your belief, you stay in what’s safe even if it’s not where your growth resides. Today’s podcast is a story about making things real. I think you’ll resonate with my story of how I became more bold as an energy practitioner and spiritual teacher - both things I didn’t think were real. Or at least, not real for me. Let’s dive in.

Welcome friends to Episode #121 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. If I were to make a top 5 list of things I coach on, tolerating uncertainty would be up there. An achiever’s nightmare is uncertainty and lack of control. That sentence alone may have given you the shivers (and not in a good way). Even if you think you are pretty laid back and flexible, when you don’t get what you want fast enough or if things sit in limbo too long, it can feel intolerable. How do you build up a tolerance for something you really don’t like. That’s exactly what we’ll talk about on today’s podcast.

Welcome friends to Episode #120 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When we think about what we want next in terms of our careers, it can be difficult to go down the road less traveled. Many careers and organizations have a well-defined career path that looks like a series of promotions or lateral moves that eventually lead to an end destination. The head of a company, a department or a functional expert. What if none of these seem interesting to you? How do we know which path to take? Today’s podcast is going to highlight what we need to redefine career success.

How we spend our mornings and evenings can often be reduced to the single phrase, “I’m not a morning person” or “I am a morning person.” If you’ve struggled with morning routines, you’ll know that it can feel challenging to get these new habits to stick, especially when you feel that you’re a night owl. Today, we’ll really check into the idea of mornings versus evenings - if one is better than the other - and most importantly, how to make it work for you.

When I work with people who feel like there is so much more to do than time to do it, often the one thing they most desire is to not have to do anything. If you feel like sometimes all you want is to simply stare at a wall and not be on the move, constantly - you’re in the right place. Today, we’re going to discuss how to create even more simplicity in your life so that you can enjoy having space in your life to do what you really want to do, with who you want, when you want to do it.

Welcome friends to Episode #109 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. One of the first things that happens when we start thinking about changing our jobs or our lifestyle is we get worried about money. Even if finances don’t drive your decision about what you do for a living, you still want to feel like you can support yourself. You are making decisions on a daily basis about how you live your life based on money. The question is, “How is that working for you?” Today, we’re going to talk through how much money you really need to help inform how we spend, save, invest and earn money.

Why don’t we always get the success we desire? When you’ve gotten pretty good at your work, we can be surprised by feedback from others or from results that show us we aren’t as good at everything as we thought. What do we do when we feel that we should be more successful than we are? Today, we’ll discuss the concept of success entitlement and how it is either creating or preventing success for you right now.

Welcome friends to Episode #106 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Financial stability is often what we desire when we start to feel insecure about our money situation. It’s also the basis of taking risks and developing a sense of self-worth. What if we thought about financial stability as a construct of our mind instead of as hard numbers? How would our life change as a result of thinking about financial freedom and money differently? In today’s podcast, we’re going to put our minds to work reshaping our definition of financial success and questioning everything we’ve been taught.

Welcome friends to Episode #104 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When was the last time you truly defined what success meant on your terms? Not just for one specific goal, but across the whole of your life? When we don’t redefine success, we stay exactly where we are doing the things that we used to define as successful. As you start to get that feeling of accomplishment and success, we struggle to let ourselves reimagine what could be next and why. Sometimes, when life is already feeling good - we don’t want to change it. Yet, if we don’t redefine success, life will still change - but towards an end goal that may be someone else’s - not yours. Today, we’ll talk about redefining your own success and how that helps you recreate the life you are living.

Answering the question, “Why?” We spend over 90,000 hours at work over the course of our lifetimes. Why do we work? What do we want from our work? We want to feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction at the end of each day and whether or not you think your work has meaning or purpose today, wouldn’t it be amazing if you felt that it did?

Feel free to listen to it yourself if you have trouble falling asleep or to share it with your kids.

We work more and do more so that we can have and own more. Yet, there is a ceiling to this more in the sense of time. We start realizing that we can’t add more hours to our day so then we have to choose. What do we want to spend our time doing? How can we still have more impact when we have less time?

If you’re in the pursuit to live a life where you feel more healthy, alive and like you are purposeful in your work and personal life, you’ll want to understand energy better. One of the things we often struggle with energetically in terms of our human experience, are other people. We feel drained or low after spending time with other people. As you head into the holiday season or into a new season of your life, how do you stay on your path of growth and evolution without feeling so affected by others? How can we use energetic principles to create more balance in our personal and professional lives?

Maybe we feel like we just don’t want to keep doing what we’re doing today, but not sure what we do want. Or, we’re waiting for someone to give us an opportunity so that we don’t have to make the decision ourselves. Either way, today we will dive into this idea of not just a goal, but an impossible (possible) goal.

Welcome friends to Episode #81 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. We all dream of the freedom of living life on our own terms. Yet, we know that we aren’t being our true selves in all situations.

Welcome friends to Episode #80 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Do you chalk up seemingly random occurrences to coincidence? Or do you call them synchronicities? What is synchronicity? When we start living in the world of intangibles more than the world of tangibles, we often start seeing synchronicity appear. You may call them signs or maybe you call them coincidences. Either way, we’ll discuss what synchronicities are and what they can mean to your life.

Welcome friends to Episode #78 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. One of the ways that we stop ourselves from truly achieving our goals or moving forward in our lives is fear. We fear that we are going to fail or lose something like money, status or time in the process. What happens though if we live our lives in fear of fear? We stay where we are. So much of what’s going to be good for us in terms of growth comes at the expense of fear. Today, we’ll talk about cleaning up fears and how that’s related to living more purposefully.

Welcome friends to Episode #73 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. One of the ways that we can help ourselves gain more clarity is to create new standards. We often think of the worst case scenario, not the best case scenario when we are attempting to do something new. We plan for the worst - but we’re not planning for the best. If we really want to create sustainable success on our terms, we must also plan for the best case scenario by creating new standards.

Welcome friends to Episode #72 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. There’s a strange thing that happens as we achieve more results or we make progress. We plateau. We stop getting excited or engaged or driven by what we’re doing and we start to coast. When we start to coast, things do become easier but we also feel this sense of unease about how we’re utilizing our time and privilege. We’re wondering if we’re going to stop short of our potential. We wonder if we’ve lost our drive and motivation. We wonder what’s next.

Welcome friends to Episode #63 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. I’ve often found that changes to our lives can bring us to rediscover another part of ourselves. Changes in our lives dissolve our identities. Take the pandemic. As we emerge from the pandemic, I began to think about what I would want to remain from this last year, and how to handle the oncoming travel, social agenda and return to life. I find it particularly helpful to reshape one’s life by turning the contents of our lives on its head, dissolving this fixed way of thinking and living. The pandemic did just that. If you were to remove all the social engagements, travel and ways of being with one another easily, who are you and from where does your joy come? Another example is our family constructs. If you are in a relationship with a partner or have kids, where does your sense of belonging or purpose come from if those weren’t your main focus? If you are not in a relationship and kids are not in the picture, how would your sense of belonging or purpose change if you did have these constructs in your life? Change upon change upon change. Each change is a death of some part of ourselves from the previous minute, day or week or months. Today, we’re going to talk about how thinking about death changes what we would do today, and can even help us get to where we are looking to go even faster.

If you’re here, you’re likely not someone who wants to stay in the status quo. You want to have a goal and achieve it. You want to become the person who does what they say they will do.

That realization alone may change your life. Why? You suddenly realize that if you have the power to choose how you want to live your life, that means that you can create a life you love. While that is an empowering principle, that also can be one that brings up a feeling of overwhelm too. Where do I even start? What can I do if I can do anything?

Welcome friends to Episode #44 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When was the last time you worried about being enough? It’s a topic that brings up all sorts of feelings of insecurity. It might have been the last time you had a conversation with someone. It might have been the last time you showed up for a work project. It might have been when you were comparing yourself to other people who seem like they are farther along than you. Today we’re going to talk about stuff, the feeling of not enough, and what our pursuit for more stuff is costing us.

Welcome friends to Episode #40 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. If you’re on social media, you know as well as I do that it can be addictive. Do you ever find yourself caught in the scroll and time suddenly disappears? What about the comparison trap that happens when you see other people’s lives and they just look like it is all so amazing? I use social media for my business and while I have created some boundaries around how and when I use it, I noticed that it’s been a while since I stopped using it and decided to go on a social media fast. I started with 7 days, and went to 10 days and I’ll share my learnings with you if you are curious about doing it yourself.

Welcome friends to Episode #39 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When it comes time to end a year and begin a new one, we often try so hard to figure things out. Why is that? Is it because it’s a transition? Is it because the holiday craze gets us wishing for something different? Is it because we finally are taking a break long enough to step off the treadmill of our day to day life? Whatever the reason and whether or not you have new year’s resolutions or intentions for a new month - today, we’re going to dive into what it means to start over.

Welcome friends to Episode #38 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When I was pregnant with my first child, I remember looking out the window of the plane commuting back from work one day, thinking, “my life is going to change and I have no idea how.” I wished I had some way of thinking about what it was I wanted about this next phase of my life. I wished I could go on some kind of retreat and think about designing a life where I was a parent. More to come on retreats, but I know I’m not the only one who thinks about parenthood this way. One of the most common questions I get asked is how to make this shift, how to manage work with parenthood, and why I seem to have so much energy. Today, I’ll share some personal stories on what I’ve learned in hopes that it will inspire you - as a new or current parent - to come up with how you want to live and parent.

Welcome friends to Episode #37 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Do you ever feel that you’re talking around an issue and not directly about an issue? That you are addressing the periphery of your problems, but not the root cause? It’s ok if that is the case, and it’s also ok to start thinking about ways in which we can start letting ourselves address what we truly need. Today, we’re talking about how pain, grief, suffering and letting your heart break just a little bit or a lot can be the best thing you do for yourself.

Welcome friends to Episode #36 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. There are so many times when we face challenges, uncertainty and difficulty on our journeys. We think that we’ve finally figured out what we’re supposed to do here on this planet, or at least our next step - yet something happens and we start to question everything again. Am I doing something wrong? What is wrong with me? Does this mean I’m not meant for this? If you’re feeling this way, today’s podcast will help you on your journey as we discover what it means to finally be happy.

Welcome friends to Episode #35 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Do you ever feel like you’re really emotionally intelligent but not always executing on your best version of yourself? There is a difference between knowing and doing. This gap is often filled up by distraction and is the nature of our busy lives. Where we decide to focus our efforts, however, is the difference between the results we see or don’t in our lives. As we head into the next year, I want you to think about who you really are and what you truly want. If you’re looking for your next expansion, you’ll want to listen to today’s episode where I dig into how we create more powerful visions for our lives.

Welcome friends to Episode #33 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. If you’ve been a runner, or want to run more or are curious about what it’s like to be a professional athlete, you’re in the right place. Today, I am thrilled to be sharing a conversation with you that I had with Kyle Merber, my running coach. I’ve started running about 3 months ago on a search for a 6 minute mile, starting from being a non-runner and it’s been amazing to see the results in that short period of time. A little bit about Kyle, who happens to live in the same town that I do, and his impressive list of accomplishments.
Kyle Merber is a professional middle-distance runner for HOKA ONE ONE. Kyle graduated from Columbia University as a 10x Ivy League champion and the American Collegiate Record holder for 1500m. He has run 3:52 for the mile and was a member of 3 world record relay teams. While originally from Long Island, Kyle now resides in Hastings-on-Hudson, NY where he spends his free-time coaching neighbors.
If you want to follow Kyle and reach out to him, you can find him on Instagram and Twitter at the handles below.

Welcome friends to Episode #32 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. We sometimes get to a certain point in our lives where the excitement of this goal or life has worn off. We got the reward, the promotion, the thing and we’re left thinking, “is this it” or “so what now?” What’s the next step in your life when you’ve done what you’ve wanted? Or what if you’ve tried something and are starting to feel the itch of something new? Achievers listen up, because this is going to resonate with you. Today we’re going to talk about what’s happening and what to do about this feeling of uncertainty.

Welcome friends to Episode #31 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Today, I’m going to share with you a behind the scenes practice that I created for a private client. It’s about the work in bringing into your life the love or relationship you truly desire. I know that many of you may already have a person in your life or may have decided that you love being single, but if you’ve ever wished for a bit more desire and passion - you’ll want to give this a try too. Open your mind, heart and soul for a new kind of relationship - more loving, healthy, and committed than ever before. Are you ready? Let’s get started.

Welcome friends to Episode #29 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. If you feel like you could use a bit of a nutrition reset, or have a few pounds you think you could lose, or just know that you’ve been slacking on the eating front, you’ve probably thought of doing some kind of clean eating regimen, fast, or cleanse. Last week I tried the Prolon Fast Mimicking Diet and I lived to tell about it. Since many of you have asked what it was like while I was on it, I decided to dedicate a podcast episode to the experience in case you’re looking to try something new or even Prolon itself.

Welcome friends to Episode #28 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. It’s often when we don’t want to do the thing and we still do it, that we have our biggest breakthroughs. So many things in our life never see the light of day because we don’t follow-through. We know we should be eating better, not procrastinating, letting go of old stories that don’t serve us, yet we still can’t figure out how to shake the inertia off. If you don’t want to change your life, I would recommend you skip today’s episode. Seriously though, there’s something so powerful about the discovery of desire before discipline that I know it must be shared - because it’s changed so much about how I live my life. I hope it does the same for you.

Welcome friends to Episode #27 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. When we begin learning to trust ourselves and live into who we are, we often begin to wonder if the inner voice inside us is helping us or hurting us? Is that my ego talking? Or is that my soul’s desire? How do we know the difference between being reckless versus expanding into our next level? We’ll go there today so that we can leave feeling more inspired and trusting of the inner voice and guide.

This is the Perfect Day Meditation. This is THE meditation I take my clients through and is one that is THE most requested. Why? Because life will happen to you if you don't see how it is happening for you. I've used this meditation time and time again to pre-pave each day before it happens. Whether you're envisioning your day tomorrow or 5 years from now, it doesn't matter. What matters is that you feel it and start to intentionally create each of the moments before you step into it. Let me know what you think! If you want to download this meditation and others I've created, see the link below!

Welcome friends to Episode #20 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. Last week we spoke about making time for what's important. If you’re an achiever, you’re in love with the idea of growth and having an impact but we would be remiss if we didn’t talk about rest. What does it really mean to rest? Is it a spa day, a massage, a deep sleep? What is it and why do we need it so badly? Take a deep breath in and sigh it out. You’re in good hands. We’ll talk about rest, how to get it even when it feels impossible, and what to do when you’re not getting it.

There’s nothing wrong with your routine, but if you feel in need of a life check-up, here it is. In today’s episode, we’ll go through the ways we spend our time and how to make time for what’s really important in life.

Welcome friends to episode #15, finding stillness and peace amidst the chaos. If you, like me, are starting to feel exhausted by constant change personally and professionally and are struggling to find this sacred sense of peace amidst the storm, you’re not alone. We are in a weird place right now where so much is being uprooted in our lives. Whether you think it’s all good or bad isn’t the issue, it’s how we relate to it and that’s what we’ll talk about today.

Welcome friends to Episode #14 of the Own Your Best Life podcast. I’d be lying if I said that I was perfect at this. What’s this, you ask? It’s the idea of loving the process and not the destination. I am so guilty of not always thinking I deserved to take in the view until I get to the top, and even then - only for a second. When was the last time you truly celebrated your achievements? If I asked you how much you enjoy the journey, would you really say that you love the process? So many of us get stuck on this treadmill trying to get to the next thing when really we’re missing life happening right in front of us right now. Today we’re talking about how to reconstruct the way you think about your process so that you can have fun along the way, not waiting for the arrival of the next big thing before you can take a breath and say, “life really IS good.”

Welcome friends to Episode #13 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. We’ve all felt it before. The thrill and excitement of fear. It’s a scary thing and yet fear is at times also life-giving. Why does fear sometimes paralyze us and at other times propels us into motion? Why do certain individuals radiate fearlessness and others seem stuck and paralyzed by fear? What about the question, "if I weren’t afraid, what would I do?" These are all the questions we’ll dig into today so hold on tight. It’s going to be good.

Welcome friends to Episode #8. When you’re trying to get all the things done, we often get stuck and wonder, why can’t I just move forward? Why am I stagnating? Why am I unable to cross over this hurdle? Why does my to-do list feel like it's more than my current capacity? Most importantly, we want to know what can I do to create more space in my life so I can create the life I want?
The problem with talking about productivity and time management is that we don’t have the fundamentals in order. Today, we're going to get back to fundamentals and the mindset strategy you need to have the time to create the life you desire.

When I started thinking big and began the work of living a life on my own terms, one of my biggest struggles was taking the first step. How do I start to live differently? How do I start over? How do I unravel the life that others or ourselves had originally dreamed up? What do I even want for myself? What if I fail? I didn’t always know that coaching, training, and personal development work would be my path. I had decades of cultural conditioning that told me that these weren’t “real” jobs, and to shed these beliefs, I asked myself all of these questions, again and again. Today's episode will reveal the first step to living a life on your own terms so that you can begin to own your best life.
