21. Grief, Spirituality and so much more with Lauren Gilhula from Living on Lemonade.
Recorded back in October, this episode features a deep and evolving conversation with Lauren Gilhula from Living on Lemonade. What begins as a discussion about grief and loss gradually unfolds into a much wider exploration of spirituality, resilience, and the tools that help us navigate life’s most difficult seasons.
Lauren and I talk about how major life changes and loss can become catalysts for spiritual awakening, and how practices like breathwork, nervous system regulation, and resilience tools (including cold plunges and the Wim Hof method) can help us learn to breathe through discomfort, pain, and emotional dys...
20. The Power of a Slow Start: Rethinking January and the New Year
This time of year is usually filled with pressure to set goals, define big visions, and launch into a “new year, new you” mindset. But what if January wasn’t meant for that?
In this episode, I explore the idea that the first month of the year can be something different... a season for slowing down, reflecting, and letting the dust of the past year settle. Instead of forcing clarity or productivity, we can allow ourselves space to hibernate a little, reconnect with what matters, and listen for what’s actually emerging.

19. A Personal Update: Separation, New Beginnings, and Emotional Overwhelm
This episode is a personal update and a reflection on separation, new beginnings, and the emotional overwhelm that often comes with major life transitions.

If you’re moving through a transition of your own or feeling stretched thin, this conversation may feel grounding and familiar.
I also introduce the RISE method that I've been working on: a framework centered on regulation, integration, self-trust, and embodied action. It has been guiding me through this transition and shaping the...
18. How Nonviolent Communication helps us navigate big feelings, speak our truth, and build connection.
In this episode, I explore how Nonviolent Communication (NVC) helps us move from reaction to connection. You'll learn how to shift your language from blame to clarity, and how to speak your truth while staying grounded in empathy. If your thoughts have been spiraling or your relationships feel tense, this is a soft, practical entry point into reclaiming calm, clarity, and connection.

16. Aesthetics as Self-Discovery: Dressing The Part and Finding Your Style

15. Playing the Wrong Role: How misalignment can spark conflict
In this episode, we explore what it truly means to be present in the different roles we play in life—as parents, friends, partners, and creative professionals.
Ever feel like conflict arises out of nowhere? It might not be about the argument itself but about the roles we’re playing—or not playing. Whether as a parent, partner, friend, or professional, we all shift between different identities. When expectations don’t match reality, misalignment creates tension. In this episode, we explore how stepping into (or out of) our roles impacts relationships, communication, and inner harmony—and what we can do t...
14. Attachment Styles – How We Love, Chase, and Pull Away
Ever wonder why some people crave constant connection while others need space to breathe? Our attachment styles shape how we love, argue, self-soothe, and even ghost (yikes). In this episode, we’re diving into anxious, avoidant, secure, and disorganized attachment styles—where they come from, how they show up in relationships, and what you can do to move toward secure, healthy connections. Whether you tend to cling, withdraw, or overanalyze every text, there’s something here for you. Let’s unpack the patterns, break the cycles, and start creating relationships that feel good.

I’ll also dive into how the subconscious mind holds onto patterns, the role of brain states in kids vs. adults, and how tools like Non-Violent Communication can help us express our needs clearly.

1. First, a little about me
Before getting into the topics I really want to explore, it only seemed right to give you a little background on who I am and why this podcast exists. I suspect this may be one of the hardest ones to record because summarizing parts of my life for you in a concise way had me procrastinating longer than I should have!
I hope you enjoy it, and I look forward to sharing future topics.
