Living Intentionally

In this episode, I’m sharing the real secret to avoiding seasonal depression, winter sickness, and holiday burnout. We’re talking about how to honor the natural rhythm of the season instead of fighting it — learning from nature, animals, and even our own biology. I’ll walk you through why so many of us feel exhausted and heavy this time of year, what’s actually happening in your body and brain during the darker months, and how to protect your energy with simple, intentional habits. If you’re ready to feel grounded, joyful, and healthy through the winter months (like loving it as...

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a story that hit me right in the heart — a story about a woman who rebuilt her entire life through one tiny act of ownership. Not a dramatic morning routine, not a huge reset, not a massive life overhaul… but a glass of water. I walk you through her journey of exhaustion, numbness, and self-doubt, and how a single small decision became the starting point for an identity shift. Then, in the second part of the episode, I break down what this means for you: how micro-habits, tiny wins, and simple daily choices can rebuild your confidence and transform your...

Trust your intuition like it matters—because it does. Have you ever felt a quiet nudge to do something—but ignored it, overthought it, or talked yourself out of it? In this episode, I share a powerful mindset shift that completely changed how I relate to my intuition.

What To Do When You Feel Unfulfilled + Unhappy show art What To Do When You Feel Unfulfilled + Unhappy

Living Intentionally

Have you ever felt stuck, unfulfilled, or out of alignment in your life? Maybe people aren’t meeting your needs, your passion feels dim, and even though things aren’t “terrible,” they don’t feel amazing either—you just know something’s off. I’ve been there many times, and recently, after a simple walk, I had a huge realization about why this happens. Often, we’re searching for alignment in the wrong places—expecting people, jobs, or situations to give us something they simply can’t. Nothing’s wrong with us; we just need the awareness to look in the right direction. In...
