In the self-help space, it’s easy to assume someone else has it all together. The truth is, nobody does. While I have some answers—and I certainly can provide help to stop people-pleasing—I’m still learning, too. Today, I’m sharing recent changes and insights from my own life to offer an honest look at the messy, yet beautiful, journey of healing—and to remind you that joy, grief, and desire can all coexist. Here’s what I cover:

• How religious scriptures shaped my beliefs about worthiness–and how I’ve grown into a deeper sense of connection
• Why rest, joy, pleasure, and loving your f*cking life are powerful acts of resistance
• Why I stepped away from social media and how it has allowed me to show up more fully in my life
• How retreating to my love of fiction provided me with a soul-deep relief
• How I have become more fully present in my body and my power through pleasure
• How I learned that “Am I enough?” was never the right question to ask

I hear people use the word “stuck” all the time to describe problems or situations, but what does it really mean? You might feel stuck in a relationship you want to change but don’t know how, or caught in a pattern you keep repeating even when it no longer feels good. I’ve been reflecting on what it really means to be stuck—not just to understand it better, but to find language and tools that actually help. In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve discovered to offer you deeper context around the feeling of being stuck and what you can do about it. Here’s what I cover:

• Why feeling stuck in people-pleasing isn’t your fault
• How feeling stuck in one area can have a big impact on your life overall
• The insight from Esther Perel that shaped my thinking on this topic
• Why stuck systems have all stability and no change and what we need instead
• The key to change: teaching your parts that it’s safe to feel a little unsafe
• How to begin experimenting with authenticity in small, safe ways

Living with ADHD means it doesn’t disappear once you find success–you can be kind, loving, respectful and still show up with your ADHD when you connect with yourself and take accountability. Today, I’m bringing you a conversation from the I Have ADHD podcast, where I was interviewed by Kristen Carder. We talk about my journey of being diagnosed with ADHD in midlife, the relationship between neurodivergence and people-pleasing, and how I became an ex-good girl. Here’s what we cover:

• How “ADHD brain” can impact your life even when you have good intentions
• How my ADHD diagnosis later in life brought both clarity and grief
• My approach to seeking help managing perimenopause
• Why self-abandonment is at the heart of people-pleasing
• What it truly means to be an ex-good girl and how to reclaim your voice
