34. What If Transitions Could Be Easier? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're heading into the final days of August, and with September comes that familiar feeling of transition. Changing routines, cooler weather, kids heading back to school, and the feeling that something is shifting. Sometimes it feels like everything is changing at once. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the many emotions that can come with transition. The excitement and fear, gratitude and sadness, readiness and grief. We often look for one clear way we're supposed to feel, but what if we made
33. What If We Looked for Delight? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Slowdown , we’re exploring what happens when we intentionally orient toward delight. Our attention is constantly being pulled in a thousand directions, but what if we practiced noticing the things that make us smile, spark our curiosity, or make us feel a little more alive?

Read excerpt
In this week’s episode, I’m sharing a little about my own unexpected inward journey this summer and what I’ve been noticing as I move through a season of reflection, change, and growth.

Read excerpt
We often hear that we should "regulate our nervous system," but what does that actually mean? And what’s the point? This week, I’m sharing my recent experience of going to the depths. Of noticing patterns arising with radical self awareness. Of getting more honest with myself about where I am, and what I want. And making choices that reflect how I want to live my life. Life will always include uncertainty, grief, joy, anger, change, and heartbreak. The goal isn't to avoid these experiences or ru
30. Reclaiming Attention in the Digital Age (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode, I share a recent camping trip that unexpectedly became a deep reminder of how much of my attention is tied to my phone. With no reception and a dead phone, I started to notice just how automatic my relationship with it had become, and how even its presence can pull me out of what’s right in front of me. What followed was discomfort, awareness, and a surprising sense of clarity about how scattered our attention can become in daily life. I also share what I’ve been experimenting w
