In today’s episode, we explore the subtle yet powerful idea of intentionality. That is, doing things on purpose rather than drifting through the day on autopilot.

If your days feel rushed, disconnected, or like you’re ticking off tasks without really feeling present, this episode is a gentle nudge back into awareness.

Erica shares how a three-minute tea pause can become a daily ritual that brings clarity, calm and focus. She offers her own personal example of committing to more visibility on LinkedIn and the tactile trick she uses to stay accountable.

Most importantly, she invites you to check in with your body, to sit with discomfort, and to allow space for your true intentions to emerge.

In this episode, you'll discover:

* Why getting clear on your intention is only the first step

* How a cup of tea can anchor your awareness and reset your day

* Why planning often disguises itself as progress

* A simple desk-based trick using coins to stay consistent with your goals

* How to tune into your body to uncover deeper truths and guidance

* How sharing your intention can shift not just your mindset, but your relationships too

Tea Routine Takeaway:

If you could do just one thing today with extraordinary care, what would it be?

Start there. Let that small act guide you.
