Manifestation Burnout - Why Affirmations May Not Be Working
The Courage to RiseĀ® Podcast
Have you ever affirmed so hard you thought you might pop a blood vessel and still nothing moved in your life? Welcome to manifestation burnout. In this episode, I dig into why endless affirmations can leave you exhausted and discouraged, and what actually creates change. Spoiler: White-knuckling your way through affirmations and "just affirming more/harder" isn't the way. Itās about aligning your state so your brain and body believe itās already true.

When the Growth Gets Sneaky
The Courage to RiseĀ® Podcast
Sometimes the biggest growth doesnāt come with fireworks ā it comes quietly, in the form of nuance, micro-movements, and the kind of lessons that sneak up on you.

If You Move, It Will Stay...
The Courage to RiseĀ® Podcast
In todayās episode, Iām diving into a phrase I first learned through my Ashtanga yoga practice: āIf you move, it will stay. If you stay, it will move.ā At the time, it was about holding a pose. But the longer I sat with it, the more I realizedā¦ itās about everything. Emotional pain. Physical discomfort. The hard seasons. The things we want to push away, numb, or escape. So many of us have been taught to leap out of anything that feels uncomfortable. But what if the very thing weāre trying to avoidā¦ is the thing that will finally move if we just stay with it? This episode is an...

Trade in Your Black Belt
The Courage to RiseĀ® Podcast
On this episode, we dive into one of the KEY elements required for your growth and evolution: self-compassion. I used to have a black-belt in beating myself up. Shame, frustration, you name it. Through my journey I learned that the careful application of self-compassion is one of the elements that can either accelerate (by its presence) or delay (by its absence) our journey of self-discovery (though I prefer self-remembrance)! If you want to read more on relinquishing your own black belt, check out this article I wrote a few years back:

The Only Thing "Wrong" With You
The Courage to RiseĀ® Podcast
I spent a lot of years feeling like I had a dark secret: something was wrong with me. I worried that I was irrevocably broken and that no one had bothered to tell me. Through my journey I realized the truth: the only thing "wrong" with me was that I thought there was something "wrong" with me. :) In this episode, I talk about that feeling you may have had that there's something "wrong" with you for whatever it is you're experiencing right now. I also talk about the concept of labels and, as always, WHERE YOUR POWER LIES.
