Welcome back to the podcast! Today I’m talking about life lately, the rhythm of my days here in Florida, and the strange mix of emotions that can come with feeling genuinely happy while the world often feels crazy. If you’ve ever felt gratitude and guilt sitting side-by-side, this conversation will likely feel very familiar.

Of course, we also get into Super Bowl weekend — including my honest thoughts on the halftime show. Not just the performance itself, but the reactions, the commentary, and how differently we all seem to experience the same cultural moments.

This episode weaves through joy, perspective, self-awareness, and the reality of living in what I jokingly call my “Florida bubble.”

And toward the end, I share something I’m really excited about:

✨ My Five-Day Cortisol Reset

Because if fat loss feels harder than it used to…
If your body feels like it’s resisting you…
If stress, sleep, and hormones feel like they’re running the show…

There’s a reason.

Inside this short reset, we focus on lowering stress load, stabilizing blood sugar, improving sleep rhythms, and helping your body feel safe enough to actually respond.

Nothing extreme.
Nothing miserable.
Just smart, strategic shifts that work with your midlife physiology.

January starts with big intentions.

February shows us real life.

If your motivation felt strong at the beginning of the year but has quietly faded, this episode is for you. And no, it’s not because you lack discipline or willpower.

In this episode, we’re talking about why motivation naturally drops, especially in midlife, and what actually creates results that last beyond the first few weeks of the year.

You’ll learn why pushing harder often backfires, how stress and hormones affect consistency, and why rhythm matters more than intensity once your life and body change.

This is a permission-giving conversation that will help you stop blaming yourself and start building habits that actually fit your season of life.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why January motivation fades for almost everyone

• The truth about willpower and why it’s not a character flaw

• How stress, sleep, and hormones affect motivation in midlife

• Why intensity leads to burnout and inconsistency

• The difference between motivation and sustainable rhythm

• What consistency really looks like for women in midlife

• How to create simple systems that support long-term results

If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I just stick with it?” — this episode will change how you see yourself and your progress.

In this episode, I’m diving into a question that came up over and over after we attended the college football national championship game:

“How much did it cost?”

And honestly, that question opened the door to a much bigger conversation.

Today, we’re talking about why Gen Z prioritizes experiences over things, why that mindset actually makes a lot of sense, and why so many women in midlife are quietly starting to feel the same shift. This episode isn’t about money or luxury. It’s about values, intention, and how we choose to spend our time in this stage of life.

I’m also sharing what that championship game experience really gave us and why, years from now, the price tag won’t be the part that matters.

In this episode we cover:

• Why asking “how much did it cost?” misses the bigger point

• What Gen Z understands about experiences that many of us are just learning

• How midlife naturally shifts our priorities from accumulation to connection

• Why time becomes the most valuable currency in your second act

• How experiences don’t have to be big or expensive to be meaningful

• A powerful reframe for how we measure “worth it” decisions

If you’ve ever felt torn between being responsible and fully living your life, this conversation is for you.
