Even though it’s not quite as popular as it was a handful of years ago, I find that people are still really interested in the Law of Attraction and what it really takes to actually manifest shit in your life.
I mean… do you just state what you want and magically the Universe just drops it at your doorstep? Um, obviously not. If that was how it worked we would all be sporting some fabulous Jimmy Choos, chillin’ at a Beyonce concert(s), having killer spouses (and sex), and only amazing-ass friendships. So, just deciding what you want to manifest is only a small piece of the manifestation puzzle.
In this episode, I share my 5-step system to manifesting damn-near anything you desire. No really. But, guess what? It’s going to take action. And planning and willingness and commitment. And maybe even some tough choices. But honey, you DO have the pow-ah to create some serious magic. #trust
This pod explores:
What the universe needs to hear from you when you declare your desired goal
How to identify the clutter you need to eliminate to make space for what you really want
What it means to get into “inspired action” and why this is CRUCIAL to making shit happen
Why dismissing compliments and/or support from others may be seriously stifling your manifestation

You land your perfect job. And then your inner voice tells you that you are horribly unqualified and everyone is going to find you out.
You enter a super healthy relationship with an awesome partner. And then your inner voice tells you how damaged you are, why you aren’t good enough, and why it’s all going to come crashing down in a blazing inferno.
You finally finish that graduate degree. And then your inner voice tells you how you were the slowest in the class, probably won’t get hired, and should probably just try to get your old job back.
Sound familiar? If so, you are likely battling a lovely little issue we (in the personal growth world) like to call The Imposter Syndrome. The idea that, in spite of your success or accomplishment, you are somehow not good enough, a total fraud, and have fooled everyone who will surely soon find you out.
In this week’s episode, I answer a listener’s buring Q about what to do when you find yourself beating yourself up about being an imposter in your career, relationship, as a parent, or whatever. You’ll learn what to do with those pesky thoughts, how to acknowledge yourself (without being a cocky asshole), and how to own your god-damned brilliance (even if that terrifies you).
This pod explores:
How to know if you actually are an imposter or if you’re just being a dick to yourself
How to zero in on what you’re really afraid of so you can get a handle on your triggers and create a much more empowering inner convo
Two of my favorite assignments to snap you outta this imposter trap (bring your pen and paper, Babycakes! We got work to do!)
The one tool you need to employ TODAY to change how you view yourself so you know, you can actually be fucking happy

You know *that thing* when you get totally caught off guard by a request and don’t know how to say “No”, so you say, “Um, yeah, sure. Totally”? Or how ‘bout this one: You know you need to address something with your bestie by you keep thinking, “Am I overreacting? Am I being dramatic? I feel like I should say something, but I’m so nervous!” Or maybe your boss walks into your office and asks for another report to be completed and instead of saying “I don’t think I can add one more thing to my plate”, you just verbally list out a litany of things that you have to accomplish, hoping that she’ll magically get your drift.
Real talk. No one teaches us how to articulate our thoughts, feelings, needs, and opinions in an effective manner. We stumble around thinking we can’t ever let anyone down and god forbid we actually say “No”! So we learn to “sweep things under the rug” and tell ourselves that it’s not that serious until we erupt like a god-damned volcano.
If you’re sick of this rat race, but still don’t know #WTF to say, then prepare to burn a hole in this episode. I go off about nine, easy-to-implement communication hacks that will have you speaking up for yourself and feeling damn good about it. Get your pen and paper ready because this is your new bible.
This pod explores:
Tons of specific phrases/scripts you can use in the toughest of interactions
My go-to word to use to kick off a tough conversation like a boss
How to stop those arguments before they even start (for reals)
How to use humor and sarcasm without being a total asshat

You’ve been in the same industry for 20 years and you’re dying to make a change but you’re scared shitless to throw in the towel. Wouldn’t that mean you wasted two decades?
You’re not totally sure you’re getting your Master’s because it’s what YOU really want or if it’s because that’s what mom wants… or because it’s what a younger version of you wanted. Shit. What if you just don’t want that path any longer? Finish what you started? That’s what they say, right?
You’ve always wanted to pick up and move to a new country, but jesus, how stupid would it be to quit your six-fig job? But, you’re so damn good at what you do! But, then again, Italy is calling…
If you’ve faced any of these harrowing decisions (or something similar) you know what it can feel like to tow the line of QUIT or PERSEVERE. I mean… how do you know if you should stick with something or if you should just quit while you’re (sort of) ahead?
In this episode, I cover off six, specific tactics you can employ to make your decision faaaar easier. Plus, we already know what dad will say… But, with all due respect, it ain’t about Dad or your bestie or how much time or money you’ve invested. It’s time to get clear… for YOU. For your happiness. Your fulfillment.
This pod explores:
How to know why you feel compelled to stick with this “thing” and how to know if that’s a bullshit reason or not
How to figure out if you are disenchanted with your end goal OR the hard working getting there
My favorite woo-woo, hippie tactic to help you access what you REALLY want
How to figure out what each of your options is costing you… and money isn’t the only currency, Babycakes!

Have you ever replayed a conversation with someone over and over again in your mind, completely making up what the other person was thinking/feeling/intending? Or how ’bout this one… ever obsessively worry about something day and night until this *thing* comes to fruition, and NOTHING even remotely close to what you were worrying about actually happens? Or have you ever said something like, “I’m just such a perfectionist” or “I can’t tell my husband that!!”
If any of those scenarios seem eerily familiar, you will want to catch this week’s pod where we’re discussing all things Stories We Make Up. As in, all the ways in which we get locked into a specific story which inevitably keeps us small, stuck, and stressed-the-fuck out. Things like thinking you HAVE to do something… The story being “I don’t have any choice in the matter”. Or making up a whole story about what your mom meant/thought/felt when she made that one comment last week.
We are wildly imaginative beings and sometimes, we give our hyperbolic and fictional stories far more credit that they deserve. Have a listen and start attaching yourself to EMPOWERING stories that have you lit up and taking charge like a total badass.
This pod explores:
How worrying is essentially like praying for shit you DON’T want to happen
How the way you refer to yourself may be massively holding you back… from amazing opportunities and ultimately, from your happiness
How to let go of the mind spiral when you are CERTAIN you’ve summed up what someone else is thinking or feeling
Specific phrases you need to keep an ear out for to be sure you aren’t totally self sabotaging (and not even realizing it!)

In 2009, Bronnie Ware broke the internet (yes, before Kim K.) with her riveting blog post, The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying, chronicling her time as a palliative care nurse. Due to the instant popularity, because um… it HIT HOME for so many people, Ware published her first book of the same name in 2012. Perhaps you have seen the meme floating around Facebook or Insta and maybe you even gave it a little thumbs-up or a double tap and went on your merrily, scrolling way.
Isn’t this what we do with good ideas these days? We simply give it a nod, and then jump back into our routine of people-pleasing, over-working, or numbing out so we don’t have to, you know… actually FEEL what we’re going through. I’m certainly not talking shit, because #trust I have been there, but I think standing back and looking at the grand scheme of our lives can make your boss’s demands seem a bit trivial or your family drama super unnecessary.
This pod is about getting down to fucking business. No more wishing for the life you want; It’s time to create it. It’s about living a life free from regrets. Starting now. In this show, I unpack Ware’s Top 5 so you don’t arrive on your deathbed thinking, Damn, I wish I would have said ‘I love you’ more, or I wish I cared more about my happiness than I did about making my mother-in-law like me. This pod may sound a bit more like a sermon than normal, because you know what, Love? It’s a matter of life and death.
This pod explores:
How to figure out if the goals you’re working toward are really about your happiness (Or about clout, praise, or someone else’s expectations)
How to figure out *who* in your life you should be investing your time in and when to say #byefelicia
How to figure out if your J.O.B. is stealing your life force. Like, for reals.
The #1 regret of the dying and how to make sure this isn’t your statistic

Recently a listener wrote in to the show sharing her woes surrounding her tenured relationship that had entered into the oh-so-boring world of dull-ass date nights. Perhaps you know the drill. The same restaurants. Ordering the same foods. The same stale conversations. Or perhaps, not much conversation at all. The same sexual positions. Rinse. Repeat. Blaaaaaah.
If you have found yourself in this precarious situation, you are most certainly not alone. Even the happiest couples [points to self] can fall into these patterns. It is damn-near impossible NOT to fall into some kind of rhythm, routine, or habit while in a long-term relationship. Layer in stressful jobs, family drama, and making sure you don’t fuck up your kids and you have a lovely recipe for some ho-hum date nights, amiright!?
In this week’s show, I sound off on three tactics to igniting your love life through spicy AF date nights, fun ways to deeply connect, and easy go-tos that won’t leave you feeling like you have to put one more god-damned thing on your to-do list. Get your pen and paper ready because this episode is bursting at the seams with a litany of ideas to keep you excited for your next date night instead of, you know… faking that headache. Again.
This pod explores:
How to have a successful convo with your partner about how you want to switch up date night (without inferring that’s it’s *their* fault and/or cuing their defensiveness)
How to create a date night “system” that works for both of you
Tons of super easy (and affordable) ideas to spice up your conversations, your activities, and your bedroom shenanigans

Tell me if this sounds familiar: Someone catches you completely off guard and lays into you about something you did/didn’t do and everything in you wants to tell them where they can shove it. But instead, you brush it off, telling yourself it’s just not worth it. But is it over? The confrontation – Yes. The emotion? Hardly. You ruminate on everything you wish you would have said. You make up stories about the other person and what an asshat they are. You replay and replay and replay. You lose sleep. You toss it around with your bestie. You avoid the person. Been there?
Or how about this one: You know you need to speak up to someone. Maybe it’s Mom. Maybe it’s your boss. Maybe it’s your spouse. Something you know need to share, but god-damn it if you don’t get all clammed up, nervous, and fumbly every time to try to speak up. Your voice shakes, your heart races, you may even cry, and nothing comes out as planned? Hit home?
If either of those situations sound familiar, you are certainly not alone. Whether we need to confront someone or someone is confronting us, these sorts of interactions can be absolute nightmares to navigate. In this week’s show I’m sounding off on specific steps, tactics, and phrases you can use if either of these slippery (and fucking uncomfortable) situations smack you in the face. Get ready to embrace some killer confidence and get aaaaaall the words out… with power.
This pod explores:
The absolute BEST thing to say when someone catches you off guard (and no, it’s not Fuck you very much)
How to deal with uncomfortable emotions (and anxiety) that arise when you are confronting someone or when you are being confronted
My favorite tips for preparing for a tough conversation without losing sleep, stressing yourself, or eating all of the things
The #1 thing you MUST plan for after a tough conversation

You have a big decision to make. Maybe it’s about a new job. Or if you should move across the country. Maybe ending a relationship… or starting one. And, you are totally fucking confused. Your head is spinning around in The Land of What Ifs. What if you don’t make the right choice? What if you regret it? What will your mom say?
I mean… how does one just make tough decisions? Write out a pros and cons list? Ask your besties what you should do? Then, why don’t any of those things help you feel solid and confident in your choice? Why are you still unsure and anxious?
Well, first off, you are soooo not alone. No one teaches us how to make powerful choices rooted in our own fulfillment. We’re taught to check off lists and fit into boxes and craft a life that complies. And what no one ever tells you is that often leads to massive disappointment. Let’s flip that script, shall we?
In this episode, I cover off five major concepts you MUST employ to make powerful decisions (so you don’t end up super consumed with what your family will think or being mowed over by guilt or regret).
This pod explores:
The absolute FIRST question you must ask yourself before venturing into the decision-making process (this makes every choice waaaaaay easier!)
The one emotion you MUST acknowledge in order to make strong and confident choices
How to know if you are scared because you’re making the right decision or because you’re making the wrong one
The people’s opinions you should care about and the people you need to leave out of it (this may surprise you!)

Ever find yourself desiring deep, rich connections with your partner or your friends and family but have a hellova time letting your guard down? Maybe you even find yourself craving deep intimacy but you’re absolutely terrified to really “be seen”. I mean, isn’t it just safer to stay walled up? Well… if the other party was vulnerable first… maybe then it would be safe. Maybe. Why is it so damn hard to be vulnerable?
If you’ve found your mind spinning with the same questions, you are certainly not the exception. Many of us crave rich, soulful connections with our loved ones, but we’re absolutely paralyzed by fear of being vulnerable. So we put up massive walls, don’t let people in, and then wonder why we don’t have intimacy.
In this episode, I challenge Mr. Smith to a round of True and False to see how savvy he is on all things Vulnerability. I dig into the detrimental notions we’re inundated with in our culture, how it sends major mixed messages about vulnerability, and why you need to drastically change the narrative if you want to experience intimacy in your relationships. Listen in and play along to see how strong your vulnerability skills are!
And guess what? You get to take as many baby steps as you need to feel safe. Promise.
This pod explores:
How our society shapes our views of safety in relationships (And how that isn’t doing you any favors)
Challenging the notion that vulnerability equals weakness, when in reality vulnerability equals courage
The two simplest ways to gradually and lovingly step into vulnerability (without feeling like you might die)
The real cost of not allowing room for vulnerability in your life
