  • Why You're So Tired — And What Actually Helps

    Why You're So Tired — And What Actually Helps
    2025/12/22
    If you've ever ended the day completely wiped out and thought, "Why am I this tired? I didn't even do anything that big…" — hi. Same. And this episode is for you. In Week 4 of our Best Lessons of the Year countdown, we're revisiting two of my favorite conversations because they speak to a very real modern experience: carrying a thousand invisible things… and then wondering why your nervous system feels like it's running a marathon in jeans. First, we dip back into my Solo Cast on the invisible mental load — that constant background hum of remembering, planning, worrying, organizing, anticipating, and basically being the "tabs open in your brain" person. Then, we revisit my conversation with Jordan Arogeti (co-founder of Support Now) to talk about Support Languages — a framework that helps us understand how we give support, how we receive it, how to read the room, and how to repair when we didn't show up the way we wish we had. So if you're listening while wrapping gifts, doing dishes, working out, or hiding in the car for five minutes of peace… welcome. You're in the right place. In this episode, you'll hear: Why the invisible mental load is exhausting even when your calendar "doesn't look that full" A tiny practice that helps an anxious brain actually tolerate stillness (yes, even for one minute) How your body often says "no" before your mouth does What Support Languages are (and why support isn't one-size-fits-all) The lost art of reading the room (and remembering you're not the main character in every chapter 😅) Why repair matters more than perfection when it comes to care and connection A few key takeaways: Your emotions aren't a character flaw — they're information One-minute pauses can be a one-degree shift that changes everything over time The goal isn't "perfect support" — it's real support You're allowed to need help, ask for help, and receive help without earning it Quotes you'll want to save: "You're not exhausted because you're weak. You're exhausted because you've been carrying a lot — often silently." "Tiny, imperfect support still counts. And you're allowed to receive it, too." "Your emotions are information — not proof you're failing."

  • When Winning Means Losing & Wonder Brings You Back: Highlights with Eli Martinez

    When Winning Means Losing & Wonder Brings You Back: Highlights with Eli Martinez
    2025/12/15
    Hello, hello! In this week's "Best Lessons of the Year" recap, we're diving into two surprisingly connected themes: How easy it is to lose ourselves in conflictHow possible it is to find ourselves in nature We start with a clip from my solo cast, Winning Isn't Everything, where I break down what really happens when our nervous system floods and suddenly our partner becomes… the enemy. (Yes, even if 10 minutes ago they were our favorite person.) Then we shift into wide-open wonder with adventurer and wildlife guide Eli Martinez, who reminds us that reconnecting with the natural world isn't just "nice" — it's an actual portal back to intuition, presence, and our truest selves. Some quote that stand out "Stepping out of win-lose dynamics isn't weakness. It's wisdom." "When we stop fighting for control, we start listening — and that's when we find our way back to ourselves." "Wonder cracks us open in ways certainty never can." Key Takeaways Winning in conflict often means both people lose. We aren't built for battles in our closest relationships. Curiosity is a superpower — in conversation, in conflict, in connection. Nature resets the nervous system. Watching a sunset can be more therapeutic than a dozen self-help books. Adventure and intimacy feel the same in the body. Fear + excitement + vulnerability = transformation. The real lesson? Learning to trust yourself is a practice, not a one-time achievement.

  • When Learning Gets Messy & "No" Sets You Free — Best Lessons of the Year: Week 2

    When Learning Gets Messy & "No" Sets You Free — Best Lessons of the Year: Week 2
    2025/12/08

    Welcome back to The Don't Cut Your Own Bangs Countdown: Best Lessons of the Year — your cozy December rewind of the conversations that cracked me open, cracked me up, or came back to whisper, "Hey… you needed to hear that again."

    This week we're celebrating two big themes we ALL lived through this year:
    1. Learning in real time (aka: The Messy Middle)
    2. The courage to say a brave, wholehearted "No"

    You'll hear moments from my solo cast on "Tech Sweats" (yes, the kind where you curse at software and question your entire identity), plus one of my favorite conversations of the year with CityMom founder Janine Bobmeyer. Her story of burnout, truth-telling, and redefining success is one of those episodes you feel in your chest.

    A few moments you'll hear:
    • "Learning is rarely graceful. It's… sweaty."
    • "A 'no' spoken from truth is always a 'yes' to something better."
    • "Being in the middle of a mess doesn't mean you're doing it wrong — it just means you're in the middle."

    If you want the full episodes these clips came from, you can watch them here:
