Today I’m sharing my conversation with Stephanie May Wilson, author of the book: ‘Create a Life You Love’ – How to quiet the outside voices so you can finally hear your own.

In the book, Stephanie lays out a practical framework to help women make important decisions in their lives so they can live authentically.

In our conversation, we talk about:

• The power of recognizing that YOU GET TO DECIDE
• Honoring our humanness – and challenging our fears of not achieving all the time
• Boundaries
• Practical tools Stephanie offers to help us learn to trust ourselves
• And so much more…

Today, I'm re-sharing my conversation from 2023 with Dr. Kristen Neff on the power of self-compassion. Particularly during stressful and heavy times, self-compassion is such an important concept to practice - it provides relief to those of us who feel like we're going through it alone, and it also helps us feel validated and seen - which is so much of what we're really looking for.

I hope this conversation is helpful, wherever you're at and whatever you're going through. We're all in this together.

Dr. Kristin Neff is currently an Associate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. She is a pioneer in the field of self-compassion research, conducting the first empirical studies on self-compassion almost twenty years ago. In addition to writing numerous academic articles and book chapters on the topic, she is author of the book Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself. In June 2021, she published ​Fierce Self-Compassion: How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak Up, Claim Their Power, and Thrive​, which is a must-read for all women.

This week, I'm so excited to have my friend Jen Piala back on the show. Jen is a Financial Abundance coach and a Certified Mindset Coach. Jen helps women create a simple plan to help them stop worrying about money. Having come from a place of lack, she recognized she wanted more from life and wanted a life of abundance. Jen took the time to create and actually live a life of abundance. She is thrilled to be able to bring this work to other women so they too can start creating the life they want to be living instead of thinking ‘this is just how it is’.

We talk about why its so important to focus on the things that are in our control, what abundance looks like and how we bridge the gap from scarcity to abundance and the power of Fact checking our beliefs.

Today, I thought it would be helpful re-air an episode that I did over 2 years ago on our struggles with productivity. In it, I talk about the internal and external pressures that so many of us feel and how we can form an identity around getting things done.

I talk about where we learned this, how it might be serving us (because it does serve a purpose in our lives), and what we can do about it if we want to break the cycle and find more balance in our everyday.

This week on the podcast, I'm sharing my conversation with Kristen Ragusin, author of the book 'The End of Scarcity – The Dawn of the New Abundant World’.

Kristen's book teaches us about the flaws in our current belief system around money, and how we can change our beliefs to unlock the abundance that is already all around us.

As a society we've been conditioned to have beliefs about money that are meant to control us and keep us feeling a sense of scarcity. And we often just accept it as fact without even questioning it. Kristen encourages us all to know that we are all already born with wealth in the form of creativity, passion, and joy.

Today, as I release my 200th episode of the podcast, I reflect a bit on my journey and share my thoughts on where I've been and where I'm going.

Thank you so much for being a part of this journey with me!

This week on the podcast, I'm sharing my conversation with Talia Bombola. Talia is a professor, podcast host and business coach for women. Her work centers around helping women increase their self-worth, confidence, and assertiveness by rewiring beliefs about themselves, the world and those around them. Talia believes that once women heal the "not enoughness” they often feel inside, they can finally be free to pursue the life and success they deserve.

We talk a lot about the importance of understanding and identifying our needs beyond just physiological (so important as women) and how they show up in our relationships – not only with others but also with money and ourselves.

This week, I talk about personal values - what they are and why they are important to remember, not only when it comes to our money, but for every aspect of our lives. I share my thoughts on how it's not so simple to live according to our values everyday (I wish it was), so we just do the best we can, while staying true to ourselves.
