I’m back after a whirlwind couple of weeks (hello new business!) and today I’m sharing something that’s been on my heart big time: the power of doing things differently. 💥

If you want extraordinary results, you can’t keep doing what everyone else is doing. Period.

In this episode, I tell the behind-the-scenes story of our brand-new property management company and how breaking away from the “normal” way has already created crazy momentum. From real estate to fitness to content creation, the same truth applies—blending in keeps you invisible, standing out opens doors.

I’ll walk you through how we flipped the script, what I’ve learned from mentors who never follow the crowd, and a simple challenge you can start this week to break free from “average.” If you’ve been feeling stuck or playing it safe, this episode is your permission slip to zig when everyone else zags.

In this episode, I’m keeping it real with you — because the truth is, life doesn’t just hand us the things we want. Success, impact, freedom… none of it shows up by wishing for it. You’ve gotta roll up your sleeves, do the work, and earn it.

I share some behind-the-scenes stories from building our new business, the lessons I’ve been learning from some powerhouse entrepreneurs, and why the grind, the persistence, and the uncomfortable growth moments are actually the biggest rewards of all.

So if you’ve ever caught yourself waiting for things to “just happen” — this is your reminder that the reward isn’t only in the result, it’s in who you become along the way. 💪

Let’s do life big — and let’s WORK for it!

Welcome back to Do Life Big! Today I’m diving into a truth that I know you need to hear (because I’ve needed it too, more times than I can count): no matter what you’re facing, there is always a way forward.

Maybe you’ve hit that “brick wall” in your business, in your relationships, or even in your own mindset and thought, How the heck am I going to get through this? I’ve been there. But here’s the thing—you always found a way. You’re here right now, proof that you made it through.

In this episode, I’m sharing how to shift out of that stuck, victim-mode thinking, how to start asking better questions, and how to see problems not as dead ends but as detours—ones that will still lead you exactly where you’re meant to go.

Because listen, quitting isn’t an option. Pivoting? Sure. Getting creative? Absolutely. But giving up? Nope, not here. You’re stronger than you think, and the solution is always closer than it feels.

Tune in and let’s talk about how to keep moving forward when life feels impossible. You’ve got this—and I’m here to remind you of it.

Have you ever felt like your business is this giant boulder you’re pushing uphill every single day? I’ve been there too, and honestly—it sucks. In today’s episode, I’m diving into the difference between heavy energy (desperation, pressure, forcing) and light energy (excitement, alignment, fun).

I’ll walk you through how to catch yourself when you’re spiraling into “need mode,” how to pause and reset, and most importantly—how to bring the FUN back into your business.

Because here’s the truth: yes, business takes work, but it should feel exciting, aligned, and magnetic. When you shift into that light energy, you’ll attract more of what you want with way less stress.

Tune in to learn how to stop gripping so tight and start flowing forward again. ✨

You know those people who just get you? The ones you can be your messy, unfiltered, totally human self around?

Yeah… those relationships are pure gold.

In this episode, I’m diving into why authentic connections are literally the key to opportunities you can’t even see yet. I’m talking about the doors that swing open because someone thought of you, recommended you, or pulled up a chair for you at the right table—simply because you’ve shown up as YOU.

We’re talking:
✨ Why small talk isn’t where the magic happens
✨ How to stop “networking” and start connecting
✨ The ripple effect of showing up fully as yourself

This one’s for anyone who’s tired of surface-level relationships and ready to start building the kind of connections that change everything.

Ever feel a wave of anger rise up when someone crosses a line—whether it’s big or small?

You’re not being dramatic. That feeling is trying to tell you something.

In today’s episode of the Do Life Big podcast, I’m sharing a personal story that seemed small on the surface—just a random family walking through our backyard—but underneath it? A wake-up call about boundaries, respect, and our tendency to shrink ourselves just to “keep the peace.”

Here’s the truth:
🚨 Anger isn’t bad.
It’s not the enemy.
It’s a signal—a clue—that something needs to be protected, voiced, or clarified.

This episode is for the woman who’s learning to trust herself again.
The woman who’s tired of explaining away her needs.
The woman who’s done being quiet just to make everyone else comfortable.

If your boundaries have been crossed and you’ve felt like your anger was “too much”… this is your permission to listen, get clear, and take your power back. 💥

This one’s personal, friend. 👀

I had a dream the other night that stopped me in my tracks—and it brought up something I didn’t even realize I was still holding onto: my identity being wrapped up in recognition, titles, and applause.

If you've ever felt like you’re not sure who you are without the business, the rank, the hustle, the results... you are NOT alone.

In this episode, I’m getting raw and real about what happens when your identity is tied to what you do instead of who you are—and how we can shift out of it.

Let’s stop chasing what no longer fits and start becoming who we’re really here to be. 🎧

What if the real reason you feel stuck isn't the strategy… but the story you're believing underneath it?

In this episode, I’m getting real about why surface-level fixes—like grinding harder or switching up your to-do list—don’t actually create lasting transformation.

I share a moment from my own business where I hit a plateau and thought the answer was more action… when really, it was about going deeper. Because friend, the fruit (your results) will always reflect the root (your beliefs).

If you’ve ever wondered why you keep hitting the same walls despite doing all the things—this episode is going to hit home. We’re talking identity, belief, healing, and the inner shifts that truly create outer change.

Let’s get to the root. 🌱
