We’re stepping into a new year and I don’t believe it’s asking us to rush, reinvent ourselves, or suddenly have it all figured out.

In this solo episode, I reflect on the shift from the Year of the Snake into the Year of the Horse, what it means to close a nine year cycle and begin a one year, and why this season is more about honest movement than big declarations.

We talk about the pressure we put on future dates, the belief that life starts after the next milestone, and how real growth actually happens in the present moment.

This is an invitation to enter the year gently. With awareness. With self trust. And without leaving yourself behind.

In this episode, I sit down with Laura Nave, a Single Mom by Choice and creator of the Choosing Chaos podcast, to talk about what happens when you stop waiting for life to look a certain way and start trusting yourself to build it anyway.

Laura shares how casual jokes about motherhood slowly turned into real curiosity, real research, and eventually a brave, intentional decision to pursue motherhood on her own. We talk about the moment that changed everything, the realities of fertility journeys, and why there’s no “wrong” path, only the one that feels aligned.

This conversation is about redefining family, releasing timelines, and remembering that love, support, and abundance don’t come in just one form. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “behind,” wondered if your life still gets to be full, or needed permission to trust your own timing, this episode is for you.

Ever been told your labs are fine but you still don’t feel fine?

This week I’m joined by Lyndsy from FNDTN Functional Medicine, who’s breaking down what it really means to get to the root cause of your symptoms, from hormone imbalances to gut health, cortisol dysregulation, and everything in between.

We talk about what makes true functional medicine different, why healing often means unlearning patterns that kept you sick, and how to stop outsourcing your health to quick fixes.

It’s not woo-woo, it’s real, honest, and empowering.

Sometimes the hardest part of growth is not the leap itself, it’s the space in between.
The part where you’ve released what’s no longer aligned but haven’t fully stepped into what’s next.
The part where you’re learning to trust that what flutters away was never yours to hold, and what’s meant for you will land softly, and stay.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing a life update and some real talk on what it means to pivot in your 30s, know your worth, let go of what no longer fits, and make space for new beginnings.
It’s about holding on, letting go, and finding peace in the in-between.

This week’s conversation with Tina is one of those you’ll want to replay.
The kind that reminds you just how sacred your energy really is.

We talk about the beauty in endings, how boundaries teach others to respect themselves, and what it means to finally take your seat at the table you once thought you didn’t belong at.

Tina’s story is one of evolution: from people-pleasing and proving to embodying self-worth, leadership, and grounded confidence.
It’s about reclaiming your time, your voice, and your power, and remembering that sometimes, what falls apart is actually making room for everything that’s meant to rise.

What if your closet could be a mirror for your self-worth? In this episode, I sit down with Laura Tully, stylist, speaker, and advocate for women choosing themselves, to talk about fashion as more than just clothing. Laura invites us to see our wardrobe as a reflection of who we are, the seasons we’re moving through, and the worth we’ve always carried. We dive into letting go of items that no longer serve us, why we should stop waiting for special occasions, and how clothing can become an empowering practice of choosing ourselves, over and over again.
