July was a lot—cosmically, emotionally, personally. In this episode, I’m reflecting on what it was like to slow down on purpose, even when it made me feel disoriented, afraid, and unsure of what would come next. I talk about what I felt stirring during this wild July, how I chose to be present with my family instead of pushing through, and why even receiving goodness can feel like a shock to the system. If you’re in that in-between space—between what was and what’s not quite fully arrived yet—I see you. I also share a special invitation: Reset Sessions are open now. These are...

You’re not supposed to follow Human Design perfectly—so let’s drop that pressure right now. In this episode, I share my journey of practicing Human Design imperfectly as a Reflector, how I spent years living like a Generator, and what I learned when I finally started honoring my design. I also introduce a concept I call Retroactive Alignment—a way to course-correct when you realize you made a decision out of alignment (instead of beating yourself up for it). Whether you’re a Reflector, Generator, Manifestor, Projector, or MG, you’ll learn: ✨ Why forcing yourself into hustle...

What My Weekly Money Dates Revealed… and Why I Finally Blocked Instagram It’s felt like stagnation nation for me the last few weeks, and in this episode, I’m diving into the wake-up call that finally made me take action. I’ve been feeling stuck—creatively, energetically, and in my business. And it wasn’t until I sat down for my weekly money date that I realized just how deep this stagnation had gone. That moment made me look at my habits, my patterns, and the biggest distraction that was keeping me from moving forward: Instagram. So I finally did the thing I’ve been wanting...

Welcome back! It’s been a little while since my last episode, and I’m leaning into letting that be okay. Sometimes, reflection is just as important as action. Since we last connected, I moved into a new apartment (yay!) and officially got certified as a Human Design reader! In today’s episode, we’re diving into the foundation of Human Design—your Energy Type. Your Energy Type tells you how you’re designed to interact with the world, exchange energy, and move through life with more ease and alignment. I’ll be walking through all five Energy Types: ✨ Manifestors – The...

In this episode, I’m diving deep into the power of expressing your desires out loud—why it’s so important, and how it can completely change your life. Inspired by a day Reed and I spent in nature, dreaming up our future, I found myself both excited and terrified. I realized how easy it is to hold back from saying what you really want, out of fear it won’t happen. Can you relate? I'll share personal stories about how saying what I wanted—whether it was becoming a coach, making my relationship exclusive, or collaborating with someone incredible like Stephanie Virchaux—has always been...

info_outlineChristine was at a significant crossroads, having made the bold decision to shut down a successful business to pursue a new path. This session sheds light on the reflection, strength, and courage required to make such a shift, even when outwardly, everything seems successful.
Key Takeaways:
-
Reframing Quitting: Often, we avoid quitting because we fear being labeled as quitters or are afraid of the unknown. We explored how to reframe quitting as exploring new possibilities and making necessary changes.
-
Clarifying True Desires: Christine realized that her true passion was not aligned with her current business, despite its success. She decided to focus on developing her consulting business and pursuing her love for wildlife and adventure photography.
Tools and Techniques Used:
-
Externalizing the Inner Critic: We brought Christine’s inner critic to the forefront, allowing her to engage in a more empathetic conversation and shift the message from self-doubt to support.
-
Selective Listening: Reflecting on a conversation Christine had with her coach, we identified selective listening patterns. This helped Christine reinterpret what was actually said vs. the story her mind created, allowing her to accept the support offered.
-
Object Dialogue: By using object dialogue, Christine gained new insights into how she wanted to invest her time and energy in photography.
Conclusion:
A huge thank you to Christine for being open and vulnerable during our conversation. Her journey offers relatable insights and valuable lessons that I know will continue to resonate with me and our listeners.
If Christine’s story and the tools we discussed spoke to you, and you’re ready to start creating deep shifts in your own life, I invite you to schedule a 1:1 60-minute complimentary consultation session with me. We'll explore where you are today and where you want to be tomorrow. I'll share my process, and together we'll decide if it’s a mutual fit.
