28: How to Manifest Step #1: Dream up the Vision
a life differently
welcome to the How to Manifest 4-part series: a grounded, soul-centered approach to manifestation created especially for anyone who’s ever felt left out of the mainstream “just think positive and anything is possible" ways of manifestation. this week we’re starting where all manifestation begins: with the dream. before you can call anything in (the love, the freedom, the peace, the abundance) you have to feel safe enough to imagine it. but for so many of us, especially those who’ve had to survive systems not built for us, dreaming can feel unsafe, unrealistic, or wasteful. this...

25: Intuition: Why We're Afraid to Trust Ourselves
a life differently
why is it so hard to trust ourselves? in this episode, I explore the fear of intuition: why we’ve been taught to doubt our gut feelings, how logic and conditioning silence our inner knowing, and what shifts when we start trusting it again. this is more than a mindset shift, it’s a reclamation. because when you reconnect with your intuition, you stop needing permission. you stop outsourcing your power. you start living from your truth.

24: The Fear of Showing Up Imperfectly
a life differently
you don’t need perfection to show up. you don't need the perfect words, the priciest equipment, all the know-how in the world. showing up messy, tired, scared, or imperfect is still valuable and often the exact step you need to take.

21: Living in the Messy Middle | Let's talk about it
a life differently
let's talk about what it’s like to be in the messy middle of life. not the before, not the after, but the in-between. the space we rarely talk about. right now for me, that looks like being sick (again), grieving the two-year anniversary of my brother’s passing, and sitting with everything that comes along with it. the middle is where we live, where we learn, suffer, grow, and sometimes just try to make it through the day.
