Ep #85: 5 Ways to Make December Your Best Month
It’s December, which means everybody is busy getting ready for the Holidays, or they’re busy avoiding the festivities.

But for some, the Holidays bring up difficult feelings of melancholy, loneliness,…
Ep #84: Which of These 5 Perfectionists Are You?
As a perfectionist, or a recovering perfectionist, where do you need to learn to allow yourself to lose control? Where are you apologizing for being a perfectionist? Is perfectionism even a problem that needs fixing? We’ve spoken about perfectionism on the show before, but if you’re a recovering perfectionist, the learning never stops. There are…
Ep #83: Are You Overthinking Everything?
Why do we hear criticism so much louder than we hear compliments? Allowing criticism to ride shotgun over compliments is a classic overthinker’s trait. Studies show that women tend to both apologize and ruminate more than men, so it stands to reason that we’d give more airtime to criticism than we do compliments. Taylor Swift…
Ep #82: The Secret to Combating Pain
If you’ve ever experienced chronic pain, occasional pain, or even general aggravation, you’ll know how hopeless it can make us feel.

Ep #79: Are You Addicted to Guilt?
Self-help books have been something I’ve adored long before becoming a coach. A book I’ve been loving recently is Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Joe Dispenza, where in one chapter he talks about guilt in a way I’ve never heard before. It resonated with me so deeply that I thought I’d discuss it…

Ep #77: Maui Fires: What Maui Needs & How to Help
I generally don’t discuss current events on the podcast, usually sticking to overcoming overthinking and talking about problems that come up in my work as a coach. However, as a resident of the island of Maui, Hawaii, and the recent wildfire crisis engulfing this beautiful place, I need to do something a little different. This…
Ep #76: No Matter Where You Go, There You Are
A common denominator among my clients is a feeling of extreme gratefulness for everything they have, and at the same time, a sense of overwhelm and dissatisfaction about the life they’ve created.
