150: When to Act Without Certainty
Have you ever felt torn between logic and intuition — wondering if something is truly a sign or just fear in disguise?This episode tells the behind-the-scenes story of how I chose a home in Bali without ever seeing it in person… and how unexpected signs, divine timing, and deep gut nudges led me to trust something greater than logic. It’s a reflection on fear, faith, decision-making, and the subtle ways the universe speaks — even when we second-guess. If you've ever asked, “Is this the right path?” or waited for certainty before acting… this one’s for you.✨ “Not every sign makes sense at first. But that doesn’t mean it’s not divine.”For more episodes that explore intuition and inner guidance, check out:• 144: Shifting Old Roles to Become Someone New - https://youtu.be/vHydKls3Ae0• 142: Fear or Trust?

149: The Secret to Finding Strength When Yours Runs Out
Have you ever felt like you were running on empty — like your strength just wasn’t enough?What if courage isn’t something you always have to create from scratch… but something you can borrow? From a memory. A mentor. A moment that cracked your heart open and reminded you of who you really are. This episode is an invitation to lean — not out of weakness, but out of wisdom. Because sometimes, the most courageous thing we can do is receive.“You don’t always have to generate your own strength. Sometimes you borrow it, until it becomes your own again.”For more episodes that hold you through hard transitions, listen next to:• 145: Parenting Through a Big Move: What I Missed - https://youtu.be/dTWJHqMDArI• 130: The Truth About AI You’re Ignoring with Trish Lopez - https://youtu.be/BMUBmghapDg🎧 Enjoyed this episode?

148: Minimalism & Trust: Why I Gave Away $1,000s of Dollars in Belongings
What would it take for you to give away something valuable — not because you had to, but because your soul said it was time?This episode reveals the emotional and spiritual journey behind one of the boldest acts of trust I’ve made: giving away thousands of dollars’ worth of belongings before our move to Bali. Not selling. Not storing. Just releasing — with open hands and an open heart. And in that surrender, something unexpected came in: lightness, clarity, peace. If you’ve ever felt stuck in indecision, afraid to let go, or caught in the trap of “just in case,” this episode is a mirror, a nudge, and an invitation.“Sometimes the most valuable thing isn’t what we keep, it’s what we’re willing to release.”Looking for more reflection on the power of release?

147: One Suitcase, One Life: What Truly Matters When You Let Go
What would you take if your entire life had to fit in one suitcase? And more importantly — what would you finally let go of?This episode is a tender, honest reflection on radical simplicity. As we prepared to move to Bali, we gave ourselves a 6x6 closet to store everything for our family of three. That’s it. One suitcase. One carry-on. No “just in case.” No more holding on to things that weighed more emotionally than physically. And in letting go, I found something unexpected — freedom. Space. Clarity.“When you strip it all down, the essentials become clear.”If you’re craving simplicity or feel overwhelmed by what you’re holding onto — emotionally or physically — this episode is for you.You might also resonate with:• 133: Holding On While Letting Go - https://youtu.be/cLtx8986-Hw• 126: How She Retired at 34 Without a 9-5 with Jenni Schulz - https://youtu.be/yT6rE2rSs-Q🎧 Enjoyed this episode?

146: What Is Home When Everything Changes?
Have you ever felt like the place you once called home no longer fits who you’re becoming? Or wondered if home could be something deeper than a physical space?This heartfelt episode invites you into the raw and emotional process of releasing what once was — in my case, preparing to leave our family home before moving to Bali. I reflect on the shifting meaning of “home” and how it transforms through seasons of growth, loss, and reinvention. If you’re navigating a move, letting go of a place you love, or redefining your identity, this conversation offers grounding perspective and gentle clarity.“Home is not where you are, it’s how you feel inside yourself.”If this episode speaks to you, you’ll also love:• 144: Shifting Old Roles to Become Someone New - https://youtu.be/vHydKls3Ae0• 133: Holding On While Letting Go - https://youtu.be/cLtx8986-Hw🎧 Enjoyed this episode?

What if your what ifs became the fuel for dreaming bigger, expanding, and welcoming joy?"What if this delay is divine? What if this challenge is preparing you for something even greater?"What if today, you stopped feeding the fear spiral and instead stepped into a powerful new question — one that opens, uplifts, and guides you into the unknown with wonder?🌱 What’s one “what if” you’re ready to reframe right now?🎧 Enjoyed this episode?
