"Our time is our most non-renewable resource. If you’re constantly counting down the hours, the days, the weeks—it's not the time that’s the problem. It’s the place." -- Meg

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “There’s just gotta be something more to life”? If so, this episode is your wake-up call. In today’s conversation, I share my own story of leaving a job and a life that drained me—and how I started building the one that lights me up today. From scraping plaque as a dental hygienist to running retreats around the globe, I walk you through the pivotal mindset shifts, truth bombs, and steps that helped me design my best life ever.

Your version of “best life” doesn’t have to look like mine—or anyone else’s. Maybe it’s traveling the world, or maybe it’s savoring slow mornings at home. Either way, this episode will help you get honest about what you want, identify the beliefs holding you back, and give you the practical tools to finally move toward it. Because the cost of staying the same is far greater than the cost of going for it.

In this episode, I’m joined by my best friend, yoga colleague, and business partner, Jose Portillo, to talk about something we’ve both lived, taught, and witnessed countless times: what it really means to choose yourself. Fresh off our sixth Create Your Fate retreat—this time in the magical setting of Kos, Greece—we’re sharing stories, insights, and those behind-the-scenes lessons that retreats have taught us about self-worth, courage, and connection.

Choosing yourself sounds empowering, but the truth is, it’s not always the easy choice. It can mean breaking patterns, confronting fears, and risking the loss of comfort or approval from others. In this conversation, we dive into why people hold back from making that leap, the excuses (and very real reasons) we all face, and what changes when you start saying yes to you. Whether it’s a six-day adventure across the globe or a simple daily boundary, we’re exploring how to make the choice that will change your life—and why it’s always worth it in the end.
