In this Tipa Talk, I’m joined by Nikki J-E Turner - coach, facilitator, mom, aspiring yogi & salsera, and someone I have watched take so many courageous tipas - for a conversation about reconnecting with ourselves, rebuilding self-trust, and reimagining the paths we choose for our lives and work.

What started as one of our many private voice note exchanges and walk-and-talks became this beautiful, honest conversation, and I'm so glad we got to share it publicly. Together, we explore:

✨The journey back to self-trust - what it looks like in the small, every day moments and why it begins with slowing down enough to listen to your body
✨ The practices that help us feel grounded and more like ourselves
✨ The tricky, sticky, unclear parts of the journey we don’t talk about enough
✨ What it can look like to begin exploring a different path forward

What if the life you're longing for isn't waiting at the end of a distant road, but already taking shape in the steps you're taking right now?

In this Tipa Talk, I sit down with dear friend, Kiana - global citizen, obsessed techie, and coach to start-up founders - for a conversation years in the making. We explore what it means to find your purpose, why following your dreams doesn't require having it all figured out, and how small intentional steps build the self-trust that makes a meaningful life possible.

Together, we explore:
✨ The courage it takes to admit that the life you've built isn't the one you dreamed of
✨ Why your dream life may not be as far away as fear makes it seem
✨ How alignment is where purpose-driven living begins
✨ What overcoming self-doubt actually looks like in practice
✨ Why small steps are the most powerful path to building self-trust & creating a more aligned life.

What happens when a 12-year-old and a 10-year-old have been sitting with the wisdom of Tipa? Turns out, they have a lot to say.

In this special Tipa Talk, I'm joined by two of my favorite humans, Solara and Kyano Louis, along with their incredible mother and my dear friend of many decades, Beatrice Louis.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that when we share our stories across generations, the wisdom can come back to us in ways we never expected.

In this episode, we explore:

• Solara's earthquake moment and the mountain she became after
• Kyano on why failure is just tipa tipa in disguise
• Haitian pride and the awe of watching a story born in Haiti inspire the world
• Why the scariest things feel possible when you do them in community
• The moment the kids turn the mic around and ask the questions

In this first Tipa Talk, I’m joined by my dear friend Dr. Sabine Elisée - proud Haitian, physician and mother of 3 boys - for a conversation rooted in reflection, friendship, and the wisdom of tipa tipa, or step by step.

Together, we explore:

• The concept that “mountains do not rise without earthquakes” and the meaning we each drew from it
• How this perspective resonates in her life—as a physician and a mother—walking alongside others through seasons of challenge and change
• What tipa tipa makes possible when life feels overwhelming or the path ahead is unclear

In this mid-season update, I share what’s been unfolding behind the scenes as I’ve stepped into creating the second half of the season.

Releasing the first five episodes after holding them for so long has felt incredibly freeing, and your messages, reviews, and reflections have meant so much. At the same time, real life has been very present, and I’ve been reminded of how important it is to honor my process, my capacity, and my pace.

I'll touch on:

• What I’m learning about my creative rhythm
• How honoring my process & pace supports aligned creation
• How this season’s theme of reclaiming your power is showing up for me now
• What led me to embrace a mid-season intermission

Reflection Questions

1. Where in your life would a pause or intermission support you?

2. Where might you be acting like you can’t rewrite the rules, even though you absolutely can?

Sometimes the next step in rebuilding isn’t forward, it’s toward the person beside you.

In this episode, I share a deeply personal story about my marriage: what happened when I chose to bring tipa, the wisdom of small steps, into one of the most important relationships of my life.

What unfolded reminded me that reconnection isn’t a destination, it’s a practice. One that asks us to keep showing up, one micro-moment at a time.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

✨ How small, imperfect moments began to rebuild connection in my marriage

✨ The quiet power I discovered to shift the energy in our relationship

✨ The ways love lives in the micro-moments, not the milestones

✨ How facing what’s true—about ourselves and each other—opens the door to new possibilities

Even if you’re not married, this episode is about something universal: the small steps we can take to reclaim what we most long to experience in any relationship in our lives.

A few months after leaving my job, I begin to sense that the next chapter won’t start with a plan—it will start with me.

As the pace around me slows, I realize how much I’ve been moving on autopilot—disconnected from my own voice and needs.

This episode marks the moment I begin to rebuild from the inside out: learning to listen, to trust, and to make space for the wisdom within.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

✨ How slowing down helped me hear my own voice again.

✨ What I discovered in that quiet moment of clarity and calm.

✨ The small, steady tipas (steps) that helped me quiet the noise and start to rebuild trust in myself.

✨ Why this reconnection became the foundation for everything that followed.
