Ep. 292 | Conversations That Set You Free

Dec 17th, 2025 2:37 PM

This episode explores the conversations women avoid, the boundaries left unspoken, and the truths swallowed in the name of keeping the peace. Midlife marks a shift where honesty becomes self-care, communication becomes real connection, and silence begins to cost more than it protects. Most women do not struggle with what they feel; they struggle with giving themselves permission to say it out loud. Conditioned to be agreeable and to hold everything together, many women trade inner peace for outward harmony. The episode breaks down three critical conversations: admitting you need more support without equating it to weakness, understanding boundaries as clarity rather than punishment, and telling the truth instead of shrinking, smoothing, or staying silent to avoid discomfort. You are not too old to speak honestly, to change, or to have the conversations that set you free.

Ep. 291 | When You Wake Up and Wonder, "Is This It?"

Dec 3rd, 2025 5:34 PM

This episode dismantles the version of you built for approval and drags your real identity back into the light. It forces the quiet questions you've avoided: what actually energizes you, what you would want if guilt wasn't running the show, what you stopped doing that you still crave. It challenges the conditioned life you inherited, the roles, expectations, and performances that no longer fit, and examines the moment when those identities fall silent and you're left with the truth underneath. You'll hear a breakdown of how identity evolves, why phases of life expose what's real, and how letting yourself change opens doors you couldn't see while you were busy trying to be acceptable. Feeling lost becomes a signal, not a failure. That disorientation is often the doorway to what you value, what you want, and who you are when the noise stops.

Ep. 290 | Turning Jealousy Into Insight

Nov 12th, 2025 8:00 AM

The deepest suffering often begins with five small words: "I wish it was different." In this episode, Coach Jenn and I uncover how that single thought fuels jealousy, judgment, comparison, and how to turn inward instead of outward when those emotions rise. You'll learn why jealousy isn't really about her, or them, or anyone else, it's about the unspoken parts of yourself asking to be seen. When you stop resisting what is and start listening to what's inside, you'll find that real joy isn't something to chase, it's something that's been waiting for you all along.

Ep. 289 | Redefining Productivity, Value, and Progress

Oct 29th, 2025 7:00 AM

In this episode, Coach Jenn and I challenge the belief that busyness equals worth. For too long, many have worn "busy" like a badge of honor, believing that rest must be earned, that stillness means laziness, and that productivity defines value. But the truth is simple: you are valuable because you exist, not because of what you do. We explore the different seasons of life, from motherhood to midlife transitions and how each one calls for a redefinition of what it means to make progress. Rest isn't indulgent; it's essential. Slowing down doesn't mean you're falling behind, it's how you realign with who you truly are. If you've ever struggled with guilt for resting, perfectionism that keeps you in constant motion, or the pressure to prove your worth through doing, this conversation will remind you that progress doesn't need to be seen, validated, or measured by anyone else.   Ready to Take This Work Deeper?: Are you ready to stop living on autopilot and start creating the life you actually want? The Life Upgrade Masterclass Series is your monthly blueprint for real change. 12-months of live Masterclass workshops (with replays available) designed to help you break old patterns, build momentum, and create lasting transformation.

Ep. 288 | The Comparison Trap of Motherhood (Yep, Even with Grown Kids)

Oct 15th, 2025 10:31 AM

No matter how old your kids are, the comparison trap of motherhood sneaks in. We look at other moms, our past selves, or who we think we should be and suddenly, we're judging everything we do. In this episode, Coach Jenn and I break down why comparison shows up at every stage of motherhood, how it steals our peace, and what it takes to let go of the "shoulds" so we can see the beauty of what is. If you've ever caught yourself thinking you're behind, not doing enough, or missing the mark, this episode will help you step out of that cycle and back into confidence, grace, and truth.   Ready to Take This Work Deeper?: Are you ready to stop living on autopilot and start creating the life you actually want? The Life Upgrade Masterclass Series is your monthly blueprint for real change. 12-months of live Masterclass workshops (with replays available) designed to help you break old patterns, build momentum, and create lasting transformation.
