Ever feel like youâre living on autopilot, checking all the right boxes, keeping everyone else happyâbut somehow, youâre the one running on empty? Youâre not alone. So many of us get stuck in the cycle of people-pleasing, saying yes when we mean no, and shaping our lives around what others expect instead of what actually makes us happy.

Ep. #266: Emotions Are Messengers: How to Listen and Process Them
Mar 05, 2025
Emotions arenât just random waves of chaos trying to ruin your dayâtheyâre messengers, trying to tell you something important. But are you actually listening? In this episode, weâre diving into the truth about emotions, why we feel them so intensely, and how to stop drowning in what I call "puddle emotions." These are the feelings that keep us stuck, spiraling, or overwhelmedâlike guilt, fear, or self-doubtâwhen we donât know how to process them.
Iâll walk you through how to recognize these emotional messengers, decode what theyâre trying to tell you, and most importantly, take your power back. Because you are not your emotionsâyou are the one experiencing them. And when you learn how to work with them instead of against them, thatâs where true emotional freedom begins.
Tune in for a real, relatable conversation on how to stop letting emotions control you and start using them as the powerful guides theyâre meant to be.

Ep. #263: How to Take it to the Next Level
Feb 12, 2025
