Help for The People Pleaser

July 27, 2020 18:11 - 10 minutes - 24.2 MB

When I was a child, I was a parent pleaser.   When I became an adult, I became a people pleaser.   As a new mom and a recovering people pleaser, my initial instinct is to try to make it all better, make my daughter’s pain go away, or distract her with some toy so she forgets her big emotions and can return to being happy.   A few weeks ago, I was at a friend’s house and my daughter, Hunter, was really enjoying playing with her friend’s hot pink Barbie Convertible Car (I mean, who...

Self-forgiveness: How to Heal Wounds by Connecting With Your Inner Child

July 20, 2020 18:11 - 7 minutes - 17.6 MB

One of the topics I teach in my Soul School online course is about connecting to your inner child. Inner child bonding is so healing and very sweet.   The way we would talk to a child is so much different than we talk to our adult self. We’re harsh, judgmental and critical, but you would never be like that to a sweet young child.   If you’re new to inner child connection, there is a sweet, pure, innocent and good child within you still.   Connecting to your inner child immediatel...

4 Ways to Help When You Want to Quit

July 13, 2020 22:33 - 9 minutes - 21.3 MB

Everyone is holding a lot. I’ve been saying this for 5 months. Times are heavy and hard. One moment you may feel inspired, and then another moment depleted and exhausted. If you’re a sensitive empath like me, you may be feeling the weight of the world and the weight of your responsibilities and fears. In these hard times, the itty-bitty-shitty-committee can be really loud. Maybe so loud, you’re ready to throw up your hands and quit. If your itty-bitty-shitty-committee has been nagging ...

You're in Resistance When You're About to Transform

July 06, 2020 18:11 - 6 minutes - 16.5 MB

Last week the mantra Monday’s intention was to be aware of when you self-sabotage. This week’s intention is to learn from resistance. Why do we resist what we know will help us? For example, you know eating healthy and moving your body is good for you, physically, mentally and emotionally, but you’re in resistance to something that will benefit you. In my soul school online course, a few of the women shared that they loved each week’s coursework, but they were resistant to watching t...

How to Stop Self-Sabotage

June 29, 2020 18:11 - 10 minutes - 22.6 MB

EP 91 Stop sabotaging yourself    It's hard to change, especially when that habit or belief system has been ingrained in you for years, decades, or a lifetime.   Today’s mantra Monday and intention for this week is to bring awareness to your habits to stop self-sabotage.    Only you know how you’re sabotaging yourself. It could be second guessing yourself, questioning your actions or skills, not believing in your abilities, comparing yourself to others, doing things you know you ...

How to Deal with Your Racist Family + Friends

June 22, 2020 18:11 - 14 minutes - 29.9 MB

How to deal with your racist family and friends I was asked by a good friend to do a podcast episode on the topic of how not to get triggered by our racist friends and family. We can all agree that we are a very divided country – we’ve been for a long time. And it doesn’t help that many people cling so tightly to their beliefs, don’t take responsibility and blame others which create a bigger chasm between us.   You may think of me as a calm yoga teacher, but I’m a very sensitive and em...

Healing Birth Trauma with Andrea Wetterau

June 01, 2020 18:11 - 39 minutes - 75.8 MB

I thought this was perfect timing to have Andrea on the show because we are all experiencing collective trauma with this pandemic, which can trigger past feelings and experiences of loss and grief.   Andrea Wetterau is a licensed therapist and certified yoga teacher in Seattle, WA, specializing in treating eating disorders, trauma, and perinatal mental health.   On the podcast today, she shares her traumatic birth story and postpartum where she thought she would die from 3 different ...

You Can Multi-Task but You Can't Multi-Focus

April 20, 2020 18:11 - 10 minutes - 18.9 MB

The other day I was multi-tasking because that’s the job description of being a new mom. You will do everything, be everything, and do it all leaving you frazzled and looking haggard in the process. Pay: nothing. On this day, though, I was multitasking like a champ. Hunter was on the custom ladder Jake made for her watching me chop vegetables and stir the mushrooms simmering no the stovetop. I was like an octopus, one hand stirring the pot, then another arm to the oven to check the vegetab...

How to create Easy and Lasting Habits in Just 3 Steps

April 13, 2020 18:11 - 12 minutes - 22.6 MB

I hosted a workshop recently and most of the women had a goal on their to do list, like starting a meditation practice or journaling, but had a hard time starting or sticking to their goal. We’ve all been there. You set a goal to meditate, you’re going strong for the first week and then your efforts start to peter off.  Life is busy! You needed your sleep. A few days later, you haven’t meditated and you’ve broken your promise to yourself. So you travel down that shame spiral beating yourse...

Your Expectations of Reality are Not Reality

April 06, 2020 18:11 - 11 minutes - 24.4 MB

Usually when I’m upset with someone, it’s because I have expectations of how they “should” be. But is that real pure love? Is that reality? Or is it just my perspective of reality? During our valentines weekend, Jake went skiing Saturday and Monday, so Sunday was our day for quality family time and for this momma to get a break. I ended up doing a mix of taking care of the baby and we didn’t get quality time together. I was upset, felt used, and unloved because it didn’t go the w...

What to do when the Universe gives you a big ole SH!Tburger

March 30, 2020 18:11 - 11 minutes - 21.8 MB

Hey there sweet friend. How are you doing? If I could be with you, I’d open up my best bottle of cab and sit down with you on my couch and have some real talk. So, c’mon over and let’s be together. I hope you and your loved ones are safe. I’m sending you love. I’ve been waking up every morning at 3am, thinking about you and how I serve you now. I like to think of myself more as a messenger, rather than teacher. I’m called to whole-heartedly share my experiences and what I learn from ...

Guided Meditation

March 23, 2020 18:15 - 10 minutes - 23.6 MB

Mindfulness is being connected to the present moment, to the joy and the magic of life that surrounds you. Meditation is the daily practice of staying present, nurturing your heart and letting go of the story so you can see and feel what is in front of you. How to Meditate in 5 Easy Steps:     Rise     Pee     Meditate for 1 minute (Sit up tall and erect.

Learn to Meditate in 5 Easy Steps

March 23, 2020 18:11 - 15 minutes - 31.7 MB

What the heck is mindfulness? It’s talked about elusively in yoga classes and in articles, but what exactly is it and why is it important?   We are distracted and busy, now more than ever - outside and inside our minds. Everything is pining for our attention. Things are chaotic right now – lord knows we can use a little calm in this chaos.   I was first introduced to mindfulness in a yoga class a decade ago. It was me and a bunch of 80-year old white haired dudes. It was a gentle yog...

Get Grounded + Curate Calm during Uncertain Times

March 16, 2020 18:11 - 11 minutes - 26 MB

“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.” - Corrie Ten Boom   We live in a crazy time right now. I know I’ve said this a several times this year. Have you guys been to Costco lately!? I went to 3 stores looking for toilet paper yesterday. Shelves were empty. Lines everywhere. Streets and shops bare. People looked fearful and were rude, quickly pushing their way through the stores.   We are country rampant with fear and uncertainty, rapidly follo...

March 09, 2020 18:11 - 47 minutes - 86.2 MB

You know those friends who you don’t speak to for months or even years, and then when you see them again, you pick right back off like no time has passed?

Triggers are Our Greatest Teachers 

March 02, 2020 19:11 - 12 minutes - 26.3 MB

I hosted a Soul School workshop last week in Seattle. The topic is my favorite thing to teach: how to quiet your #ittybittyshittycommittee. Our inner critic loves to blame others and it never takes responsibility. One way you know youre in alignment with your ego is when you feel inferior or superior to someone else. You’re stuck in comparison or judgement. What came up a lot during our workshop is how those who are closest to us trigger our inner critic the most, specifically how our pa...

Cultivating Intimacy Alchemy and Self-Love with Sex Coach, Cara Kovacs

February 24, 2020 19:11 - 46 minutes - 89.1 MB

Okay, guys, I gotta warn you. If you have sensitive ears and easily get offended, this may not be the conversation for you. There are pretty much all cuss words, discussion of sex and vagina issues and the use of yoni eggs. Today’s conversation with intimacy alchemist, Cara Kovacs, is very colorful – like bright NEON colors, but so raw, real and enlightening! So you maybe wondering why I have Cara on the podcast today? She is a third generation healer and an intimacy alchemist empowering p...

5 ways to Embody Self-Love + Create Sacred Rituals

January 27, 2020 19:11 - 17 minutes - 32.3 MB

What does self-love look like? To me, in a nutshell self-love is about tuning into your heart and listening to it, honoring it and letting it be your inner compass. So often we do the opposite. we listen to our itty-bitty-shitty-committee instead of our heart and Soul, and let fear and our Ego run the show. In today’s episode, I’ll give you tools to quiet the inner critic and connect to your true Self. In addition, I’ll guide you through a habit for building your self-love muscle and giv...

How to Deal with Uncomfortable Emotions

January 13, 2020 19:11 - 10 minutes - 23.8 MB

I’m gonna tell you a story about myself that I’m really ashamed of. I’m afraid you’ll judge me and look down on me. I already beat myself up enough about it and I came to the realization that it’s important to share our scars and be vulnerable so we can heal together. We’ve all allowed our emotions to run away with us, sometimes so much, it causes shame and regret. In the moment, it’s human nature to not want to feel negative emotions, pain or shame, so we do all sorts of things to try t...

Come Home to Yourself and The Person You Want to Be

December 30, 2019 19:11 - 28 minutes - 56 MB

  Here we are, a new year, with new resolutions. Did you know that Research shows about 60 percent of us make New Year's resolutions but only about 8 percent are successful in achieving them. That’s horrible results. I’ve been there too many times. I set a goal, and about 3 weeks into it, I’ve failed. Because I failed to keep my promise to myself, then I feel like a failure. It’s not a healthy way to start the new year. I’m not a goal coach, and goals are important! They’re the roadma...

Not Everything is FIXABLE, but Everything is Figureoutable

October 14, 2019 18:11 - 4 minutes - 12.8 MB

I sat at my dad’s tombstone balling my eyes out like a baby (cue super ugly cry). Outloud, I poured out my fears, insecurities and doubts to him. I miss him. My dad was my best friend.  He was my greatest teacher and my biggest cheerleader. He was the one I went to for advice. He passed away almost a year ago, just 2 weeks before my baby was born. It’s been hard to raise a baby … and myself. A few weeks ago, I went to see Marie Forleo and Amy Purdy at her live book launch, and Mari...

Action Over Anxiety

October 07, 2019 18:11 - 4 minutes - 13 MB

Last week, I shared that I was feeling low, stuck and uninspired. Our #ittybittyshittycommittee brainwashes us with repetitive dialogue that is often negative and vague. Listening to it just perpetuates fear. Although it’s healthy to feel heavy feelings, it’s unhealthy to dwell in those feelings, looping you into a story that shapes your beliefs and actions (or in my case my inaction). I was paralized with debilitating comparison, doubt and anxiety. I’m talking jealousy, bitterness, self...

T.H.I.N.K. -- An Easy Acronym to Be More Mindful

September 23, 2019 18:11 - 5 minutes - 14.2 MB

How often have you said something that blurted out of your mouth that you didn’t mean to say, or said something hurtful as a knee jerk reaction because you were hurt, or gossiped when you’re not a gossiper, or said something judgmental only to feel shameful that you said it. With so many outlets to voice yourself these days, and sometimes anonymously voice your opinions, we can say and do things from an unconscious place. I talk a lot about mindfulness on this podcast, but isn’t everythi...

Be The Light

September 16, 2019 18:11 - 7 minutes - 17.4 MB

EP 64: Be The Light  My friend, Cameasha is one of the people who always exude a positive light. Her light is real, not just a mask of positivity or affirmations. It’s in her DNA, her beliefs and values to always be the light. It’s her mantra that she lives every day. So, I’m adopting it this week and I invite you to too. We live in a world that’s so divided. We’re busy and stressed. We’re unconsciously reacting. You can’t depend on other people to be the light. YOU HAVE to be the ligh...

This Mantra is a Game Changer!

September 09, 2019 18:11 - 4 minutes - 7.85 MB

If it’s not gonna matter in 5 years, don’t spend more than 5 minutes upset by it   We have 50,000-70,000 thoughts a day. Typically, they’re somewhere else other than in the present moment.   How often do you ruminate and turn over a story?   How much time and energy and your spending holding onto a story, a grudge, resentment, anger, guilt, shame, or worrying about something, turning over an outcome that already happened or may not even happen, or recycling that story about that ...

Your Business , Other People's Business & God's Business

September 02, 2019 18:11 - 8 minutes - 19 MB

Our mind’s job is to stay busy. To protect. To analyze. To make sense of things But when our mind runs wild, it can take us into places that aren’t good for us. Byron Katie says, there's “Your Business, Other People’s Business and God’s Business.” Our Ego loves to be right, so it compares us to others. We judge others, we worry about others – their opinions, their actions. How they wronged us, how this person should do something different than what we want, worrying over someone and th...

** F** Comparison

August 26, 2019 18:11 - 4 minutes - 12.6 MB

As a mom, I feel the tug of comparison all around me: comparing my baby’s progress to others, judging how I am as a mom and worrying if I’m doing things right, feeling judged by other moms, and sometime even judging those moms. Judgement keeps us separate from each other and from ourselves. It’s not just motherhood though – it’s every aspect of our life that our ego wants to compare and judge. Whether it’s in your career and business life, your role as a partner or parent, or just plain ...

August 12, 2019 18:11 - 7 minutes - 17.1 MB

EP 59: Let go of your Kung-Fu Grip   Expectation is the root of all heartache – William Shakespeare   Want something so badly, you force It and squeeze it to death. Have you been there? I have too. In our relationships, in our expectations of others, in the outcome, and our desires. We squeeze it to death.   So how do you let go of your kung fu grip and detach from something you really want?   Our dreams, our identities, our ambitions, our relationships are often cocoons that...

The ONE Thing You Can Do to Create Freedom Now

August 05, 2019 18:11 - 6 minutes - 16.8 MB

What would happen if you said NO for 2-days? I got so many responses from the last Mantra Monday! Apparently, we are all nice people and people pleasers!   Hopefully saying no to the things that don’t light you up, are not crucial and no to the people who drain you has helped put perspective on how important you and your time are.   It’s not a selfish thing to say no. I used to think that too. In fact, it’s pretty selfless because when you do say yes, you show up fully present to t...

If it's not a Hell YES, then it's a Hell NO!

July 29, 2019 18:11 - 7 minutes - 18.7 MB

Our most valuable asset is time. we often don’t guard it like the precious commodity it is. We give it away freely, and then say we don’t have enough time, or we’re just too busy to get the things that are most important to us done. I’m super guilty of this. I’m a total people pleaser, and I’m an optimist thinking I can really get it all done in the time I have. When I say yes to something, I’m also saying no to many other things. Things I may really enjoy better. Things I may need to do...

Don't Take it Personally

July 01, 2019 18:11 - 5 minutes - 14.6 MB

  I want to share what happened last week when I asked my dear friend for her feedback about this podcast. She gave me some great, honest advice. She said she could tell I’m reading from a script, and she wants to hear ME, my personality. I thanked her and then quickly had to get off the phone because Hunter was having a meltdown in the car – so I was really abrupt.   I believe our relationships are here to help awaken our consciousness, learn lessons about ourselves, expand and grow i...

June 19, 2019 20:11 - 41 minutes - 79.9 MB

This podcast is broken into two parts because shadow work is a very deep, complicated and huge part of awakening to our true nature. We will dive into specific examples of what dark and light shadows are, how you can detect a shadow and ways to integrate them back to your whole self. I share my personal relationship with my husband where our lowest selves and darkest shadows called each other to learn our greatest lessons. Shadows are parts of our personality we hide, so we put on masks to...

...but first GRACE

June 17, 2019 18:11 - 6 minutes - 15.6 MB

I listened to an incredible episode on Super Soul Conversations, the podcast with Oprah and Elizabeth Gilbert. Elizabeth spoke about her best friend’s death from cancer and how she fell in love with her best friend and was with her until the very last moment. I cried like a baby all the way home while listening to this podcast. There were so many AH HA moments in that interview, but one lesson that stuck out was Elizabeth said we need to give ourselves mercy first. I have never used that w...

Manifest Your Mindset

My mother-in-law visited us this week. Before I tell you this story, please know I love my mother-in-law. She is such a nice, sweet person. Jill, if you’re listening, I love you. Even though I love my mother-in-law and we get a long really well, we are each individual humans raised differently and will have different opinions. It’s probably not a good idea to talk politics, religion or about parenting choices and motherhood. But I can’t help myself- I’m an open book.  Lately, I have been...

Shed Light on your Shadows to Set Yourself Free (PART 1)

June 08, 2019 19:37 - 40 minutes - 77.6 MB

This podcast is broken into two parts because shadow work is a very deep, complicated and huge part of awakening to our true nature. Shadows are parts of our personality we hide, so we put on masks to show we are perfect. Society has groomed us to search outside ourselves for validation, keeping us in a cycle of striving for something in the future to make us happy or being stuck ruminating in the past. We are taught to never be satisfied, to believe this moment is not enough, and you are no...
