259. As we wrap up 2025 and look toward a brand-new year (hello, 2026!), this week I explore a powerful mindset shift that can transform how you set goals and follow through on them. It’s called minimum baseline thinking, which is the practice of committing to the smallest, most doable action to build consistency, self-trust, and real progress over time. Whether you're wanting to move your body more, start writing, learn something new, or finally prioritize your wellbeing, a minimum baseline can help you move forward with ease, confidence, and self-love. Join me as I explain how it works, why it’s so effective, and how tiny commitments can reshape your habits and your life.More relevant and helpful episodes for you!Episode 13: Progress Over PerfectionEpisode 106 : The B- Method for Recovering PerfectionistsEpisode 121 : Letting Go of Productivity ShameEpisode 202: The 20 Minute RuleAND.....If this podcast has inspired you, informed you, or spoken to you in any way, I welcome your support.

257. Join me this week as I take a fresh and honest look at gratitude, beyond the pressure filled Thanksgiving table traditions and the expectation to feel grateful on command. I share my own journey with gratitude over the past few years, why the classic “What are you thankful for?” moment can feel forced or inauthentic, and how giving ourselves permission to shift our perspective can open the door to a deeper and more meaningful practice. You’ll hear simple alternatives for creating genuine connection, the powerful mind-body benefits of gratitude, and the reminder that gratitude truly unlocks the fullness of life.Listen to The Power of Gratitude Meditation.AND.....If this podcast has inspired you, informed you, or spoken to you in any way, I welcome your support.

256. This week I am thrilled to welcome back my friend and fellow burlesque dancer Michelle L’amour. Tune into our heartfelt and deeply honest conversation as we explore what it truly means to choose yourself. After more than twenty years of marriage and a recent divorce, Michelle finds herself in the midst of a profound awakening. Having recently moved across the country to New York City, she is rediscovering who she is, what she wants, and is redefining her relationship to herself, love, creativity, and self-worth. Our conversation is tender, raw, and full of truth as we talk about the courage it takes to set boundaries, listen to the wisdom of your body, and reclaim your voice after a lifetime of putting others first.AND.....If this podcast has inspired you, informed you, or spoken to you in any way, I welcome your support.

Take a deep breath, settle in, and let the words move through you.Everything Belongs: A Manifesto of Embodied Awakening"In the midst of Life-on-Earth’s gorgeous, wrenching, poignant glory, everything belongs. Each yearning I feel to love and be loved, every worry and hope I feel about the future, every confusion that mystifies me and every joy that exalts me: they all belong to the chaotically magnificent totality of being human."
