44. Letting Your Soul Catch Up With Your Body (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if I told you the noise around us doesn't have to completely disappear for us to step away, slow down, and find stillness? I’m talking about a connection I made while walking my dog on a beautiful tree-lined path close to a loud street this past week that reminded me a lot of meditation and the way we can learn to separate ourselves from the mental noise around us. There will always be desirable and undesirable voices, opinions, information, responsibilities, worries, and distractions aroun
43. Failing Successfully: Experience is Experience (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Experts often market themselves as experts because of how many times they’ve succeeded, what they’ve figured out works. That makes sense, we want to know that they know what works. However, sometimes we forget that how they figured out what worked is often by also learning a lot about what doesn’t work. As the expert of your life, you’re learning a lot about what does and doesn’t work for you, for your family, for your career. You are the expert of your life because you are the most experienced
42. Your Emotional Baseline: Some Variability is Good and Normal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have found that some of the basic concepts of a medical screening tool I use in my bedside nursing practice are useful as a framework to understand my own normal emotional experience without catastrophizing every down day.

41. Celebration and Grief as Keys for Lasting Change (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes we want to create a new habit, let go of an old one, or step confidently into a new life stage…but it feels like we’re trying to force our way through a locked door that won’t let us give. Two things have helped me to move through these transitions with more ease and grace, and they are celebration and grieving. Celebration is often not our first thought (even mine!), and grieving seems opposite, but it’s all part of the process. Sometimes we move through it without realizing those par
2.24 When Rest Doesn't Feel Good (And Why That's Okay) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you've ever struggled to sit still without feeling like you should be doing something more "productive," this conversation is for you. Let’s wrap up this impromptu summer series on Rest. It’s so funny how this happens. I’m recording this episode about the importance of rest, and then within 1 hour of recording I’m thinking that it’s too long so I should edit more, I remember a story that would be a WAY better example, and the idea pops in that I should re-write the outline and re-record durin
