Ep 64 - Dana Doswell on How Your NERVOUS SYSTEM Creates Your Reality
I was lucky enough to speak with Dana Doswell, Nervous System Practitioner and pick her brain on all things healing, self development, body/mind connection, and so much more. We talk about:
- Dana's personal healing story
- Your nervous system creates your reality, your mindset does not
- The "Freeze or Fawn" response and why so many people are experiencing it right now
- Why it's so important to be trauma-informed and acknowledge your privilege
- When systemic challenges are working against you, it is way harder to do things like "raise your vibration"
- The difference between "little t trauma" and "big T trauma" - but trauma is subjective and always valid
- The panorama has and continues to affect us all
- Foundational healing vs optimization of your nervous system
- Regulation is not never feeling stressed, it's being able to REGULATE and come back to baseline
- You guessed it: sleep is crucial
- Accepting every single feeling you have rather than feeling guilt
- Dana's success with implementing boundaries
- AND SO MUCH MORE

Ep 58 - Having an EXISTENTIAL CRISIS? Listen to This.
Check out this short & sweet episode when the questions of "why are we all here?", "why am I here?", "what's the point?", "what if none of this matters?" all start to get a little louder. As someone who's been asking these questions for a long time with no comforting answer, I've finally found an interesting and helpful perspective.

BONUS: Progressive Muscle Relaxation Meditation (BEGINNER-FRIENDLY)
This 7-minute meditation focuses on intentionally relaxing each muscle in your body. This meditation is the perfect addition to your nighttime routine, just before bed, or to help you fall asleep. If you're someone who experiences stress (who doesn't?) or anxiety, this quick meditation will help you unwind.
This technique - called Progressive Muscle Relaxation - is a proven method to reduce stress and anxiety in the body. This simple technique has only two steps: purposefully tensing a muscle or muscle group, then releasing all tension.

In today's episode, I dive deep into what it means to be abundant. There are so many ways abundance can show up - and it's more than just cold hard cash.

Ep 47 - Intuitive Nudges and Perfect Timing
Ever have a great idea or thought pop into your head out of nowhere?
Ever find a book, podcast, person, or even social media post at the exact right time (even if the book was published 30 years ago and the podcast came out in 2017)?
Join me for 10 minutes to chat about the ideas of following your intuitive nudges and how we're in the exact right place at the right time.
By following your intuition, you might end up creating something that changes someone else's life in 5 years. Or, you might just stumble upon the book that changes YOUR life, all because you followed those nudges.

Ep 32 - How to Be Happy With Your Life NOW Instead of Waiting for Something to Happen
This episode was highly requested by you on my IG stories! Which is good news, because I have a lot of helpful things to say about this topic.
A lot of us live with the mindset that once we achieve *that next thing*, then we'll be happy. Once we get that house, or car, or degree, or job. We will be happy once we get that thing. But, there's always something more to achieve, so that leaves us always delaying our happiness.
How can we flip the script and be happy now while we still shoot for our goals?
I share some concrete action items, as well, give you snippets of my previous episodes with guests Tina Gravalos (ep 14) and Jared Schuster (ep 17), who share their take on this topic.

Ep 7 - The Lesson NO ONE Asked For But Everyone Needed: 2020
Happy New Year! In this episode, I reflect on last year and suggest that despite the pain and loss, there are silver linings to be found. Personally, I spent a LOT of time alone at the beginning of lockdown (I live with my wonderful fiancé Andrew, but while I was sent to work from home right away in March, he continued to work long hours), and it forced me to realize a ton of things about myself. I ask you questions to help you reflect on YOUR 2020, and how you're looking forward to 2021.
2020 was the lesson - 2021 is where we apply our learning.
