  • Truthfulness in Love
    Jan 14 2022

    Are you your own worst critic? Do you say things to yourself that you would never say to someone you love? Are you tired of trying to fit the mold, or feel like you're living this life that doesn't actually reflect who you are deep inside? 

    In this episode I discuss two of the yogic yamas (universal morality): Ahimsa (non-harm/non-violence) and Satya (truthfulness). I encourage you to reflect on these yamas and decide today how you will shift your mindset to that of non-harm and rooted in truth. 

    So, find a comfy seat, get your journal and a pen and your favorite drink, and let's have a chat.

  • Intuitive Wellness with Lauren and Jenna from Fit and Social
    Oct 29 2021

    Today's episode is a special one! I have my friends, Lauren Mayer & Jenna Lockhart from Fit and Social, joining me to discuss their stories and passion for living intentionally and intuitively beyond hustle and diet culture. 

    Lauren & Jenna spent years buying into society's conventional hustle and diet culture. This meant being "consistent" as defined by societal norms, eventually resulting in burnout. After becoming completely depleted and worn out by hustle and diet culture, Lauren and Jenna have dedicated their work to tuning into their bodies and letting their intuition lead them to a life of wholeness. Now they are coaching women in how to listen to their bodies and paving a path to a new way of living. 

    Tune in to listen to their personal stories and what amazing program they are offering now!
