Fall is around the corner, and with the shift in seasons, I’ve been reflecting on how I want to spend my time. In this episode, I walk you through the exact process I use to plan my ideal fall schedule—one that honors my energy, priorities, and season of life as a mom and business owner. If you’re craving more rhythm, space, or intentionality in your days then this one’s for you.
I found an old journal entry from almost a year ago with the prompt: “If I were to tell someone exactly what to do to start making consistent money as a coach, service provider, or online educator, here’s what I’d say…” And in this episode, I share my answers straight from that journal page. These steps became the foundation for a new group program: Consistent Income Lab (an 8-week intensive for female entrepreneurs to turn their ideas into income). If you’ve made some money here and there but w...
When most people start a business, they focus on the strategy: What to post. When to launch. How to grow. And while those things matter (and I love helping clients get clear on them), there’s another layer that often gets overlooked: the emotions driving your actions. In this episode, we’re diving into why your energy and motivation matter just as much—if not more—than the tactical steps you're taking. I’m sharing personal stories, client insights, and a simple check-in practice that can help yo...
After a good cry and a journal session, I realized I’ve been slipping into a pattern I know all too well: prioritizing everything except myself. So in this episode, I unpack what that looked like this week (including a very human parenting moment), why I decided to go off of Zoloft during pregnancy, and the honest reminder I needed about creating space for me —outside of my work, outside of my business, and outside of being a mom. I also talk about the question I keep coming back to when busines...

Are you chasing the perks of entrepreneurship while quietly resenting the hard parts? You might be trying to hold only one side of the stick.

If you've ever avoided something in your business or personal life because it felt wrong, this episode is for you. I unpack a recent realization from a conversation with my coach: the difference between something being unaligned and simply uncomfortable.

Whether you’re struggling to sell your offer, set a boundary, or prioritize your time, this conve...

In this episode of The Mindful With Media Podcast, I’m diving into why cookie cutter strategies often fall short.

But here’s what I’ve learned over and over again: nothing compares to the power of personalized support. I’m sharing real stories from my own coaching calls—like the two clients who had nearly identical goals, but needed completely opposite strategies. You’ll ...
