  • Kindness: The Universal Solvent

    Kindness: The Universal Solvent
    May 12 2025
    Have you ever called yourself a mess? In today’s episode, I share a beautiful reminder from Martha Beck and a glittery story from Brene Brown that helped me shift how I speak to myself. You are not a mess—you may have just made a mess. And there’s a difference!

    We talk about the power of kindness—how it can dissolve anxiety, calm your nervous system, and soften even your hardest days. I also share some stories from around the house, how decorating brings me joy, and how I accidentally created a beautiful mess while doing it. You’ll even hear about a moment at Walmart that lit up my day with childlike joy.

    Let this episode remind you to be gentle with yourself, speak kindly to that beautiful brain of yours, and know that you were designed for peace.

    Nourish Your Inner Fire Replay-Bonus Episode
    May 5 2025
    While we’re putting the finishing touches on new episodes coming next week, I wanted to share this feel-good favorite as a little reminder for your heart.

    Are you always waiting for the “perfect time” to finally feel okay? You know… “Once things calm down, then I’ll take care of myself?” In this bonus replay, I’m calling out that sneaky mindset and reminding you that peace isn’t somewhere out there…it starts right here, inside you.
    So lean in and I’ll share gentle, practical ways to find more balance and show yourself a little more love.

    💖 Thanks for being here and for supporting the show it means the world. See you next week with brand new episodes!
    Be sweet, y’all.
