When did you last stop long enough to actually hear yourself?

In this episode, I get honest about something I have been learning lately. I have set goals before. Written intentions. Done all the things. And they just sat there going nowhere. What I was missing was not the goal. It was the purpose behind it.

I talk about growing up as the middle child and learning early that my job was to keep the peace for everyone else. How that pattern followed me without me even realizing it. And how seeking out tools like hypnosis and working with a medical intuitive began to open my awareness in ways I did not expect.

I also share what my spiritual fitness mentor Eric Bigger helped me understand about why our intentions stay stuck. And it comes down to this.

An intention without daily attention is just a wish.

If you have ever wondered why your goals never seem to move, this episode is for you.

This one is for everyone.

For the women who have been going through real shifts in their lives and bodies and souls and had it reduced to, " Oh, she is just crabby today."

And for the men who love those women and genuinely want to understand, but nobody ever gave them the roadmap.

In this episode, I talk about the many versions a woman goes through across her life. The young woman finding herself. The mother who loses herself in someone else and loves it and grieves it at the same time. The woman whose body starts to change and whose hormones shift in ways nobody warned her about. The empty nester who wakes up one day and asks, "Who am I now?" And the woman on the other side of all of it who is more grounded and more herself than she has ever been.

I also talk about intimacy. About what happens to connection when a woman is shifting. And what men can actually do to help rather than hurt in those moments.

And I talk about grace. The kind that sees a woman in her messy version and her quiet version and her I do not even know what I need version and stays anyway.

This is not about bashing men. This is for the ones who want to do better and did not know how.

Something happened to me recently that I have not been able to stop thinking about.

My husband and I were in Fort Worth for my son's girlfriend's 21st birthday. We had already done a ton of stuff and just wanted a day by the pool. Standing at the elevator in my swimsuit four women walked past and made a comment loud enough for me to hear. Something dismissive. Something unkind. And they laughed.

And I stood there and felt something I did not expect to feel at 47 years old.

In this episode I talk about why that moment hit me harder than it should have. About a little girl who was called Dumbo because her ears stuck out. About the things we pack away and tell ourselves do not matter anymore. And about how sometimes the moments that bother us most are not really about the moment we are in.

But more than that I talk about us. Women. And how we treat each other.

We are not in competition. We never were. What women go through connects us in ways nothing else does. Our bodies. Our hormones. Having babies. Becoming empty nesters. The invisible weight we carry every single day. That is supposed to pull us together not push us apart.

I also talk about where this show is going. The community I am building here. The risk takers and the women who rose from the ashes and the ones who went against everything they were told was possible and built something real. I want those stories in this space.

And I am asking you directly whether you want to be on the show or not what do you want to hear? What conversations are on your heart that nobody is having?

This show belongs to this community. Let's build it together.

When I was ten years old, I stood at a picture window at Higgins Lake, Michigan, just hoping to catch a glimpse of a boy named Joel. I could not explain why I was so drawn to him. I just knew.

Nearly twenty years later, around a Fourth of July bonfire, the universe finally delivered.

This episode is about trusting what your soul already knows. In love. In life. In the connections that feel like they were always meant to be, even when the timing makes no sense.

The soul knows. Trust it.

This one goes all the way back.

Back to the little girl who had no idea what was coming. Who just lived. Who just dreamed. Who believed with everything in her that the sky was not even the limit.

I talk about something I have never really said out loud before. I was obsessed with Michael Jackson growing up. Like he was my boyfriend in my mind LOL. But when I watched the Michael Jackson movie recently, I saw something in him I had never fully recognized before. He was one of the greatest manifestors who ever lived. People thought he was weird. People thought he was different. There were accusations against him that would have broken most people. And he stayed true to himself anyway. He did not let anybody stand in his way.

That is what this episode is about.

I also talk about sitting in a car singing a Mariah Carey song and being told I had a really good voice. And how I never pursued it. I even entered a beauty pageant once and let fear talk me right out of it.

But here is what I know now. Fear is not real. It is made up in our heads when we do not feel confident enough to just go for it and stop worrying about what anybody thinks.

I also share something beautiful. I have always been a manifestor. Even from a very young age, I knew I was going to marry my husband. It was not a straight line to get there. There were other relationships, an age gap, ups and downs that made me question everything. But I never let go of what I knew in my soul. And the universe delivered. Just on its own timeline.

You were limitless once. You still are. You just forgot for a little while.

Welcome back.

This episode started in a urology waiting room.

I was there with my dad. Four years after his bladder cancer diagnosis. The same year I lost my mom. And I had a journal with me called Love Letters by Shannon Beardsmore that I had been carrying around since March finally deciding to write in it.

So I started writing.

I looked around that waiting room and saw people who were sick and unhappy in their bodies. And something hit me. Do they know they have a choice to heal? Do they know their mindset, their perception, their attitude plays a part in all of it?

And then I realized I had not been fully honoring my own body either. Not because anything is wrong with me. But because I had been so focused on everything around me that I forgot to check in with myself.

So I wrote a letter to my mom.

I asked her to release any parts of herself still hanging on to my body. I asked her to cheer me on from the other side. I told her I am ready to be heard and to change so many things in my life day by day.

And then I wrote back to myself as her.

I love you Kelly.

I also talk about something I have carried for years that I finally released in that waiting room. The guilt of feeling like I could not save her. And the peace that came when I finally understood she did not want to be saved. Her body was so far gone she did not want to live in it any longer. And that is okay. She is free. And so am I.

Healing is a choice. And I made mine that day.

This one is for everyone who has ever made themselves smaller so someone else could feel comfortable.

In this episode, I talk about something that has been sitting with me. The people we look up to - the ones whose light we admire, whose courage moves us, whose life makes us think I want that - are not showing us something out of reach. They are showing us what we already have inside us that we have not claimed yet.

They are a mirror.

And what you see in them is you.

I also talk about the Marianne Williamson quote that stopped me in my tracks. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light - not our darkness - that most frightens us.

We are not afraid of failing. We are afraid of how bright we could actually shine.

And so we shrink. We edit ourselves. We perform a version of ourselves that makes everyone around us comfortable. And we call that living.

It is not.

I talk about the slippery slope of society, upbringing, and other people's expectations. How hard it actually is to choose yourself. What it costs. And why it is worth every single bit of that cost.

Because what you lose when you become yourself was never really yours to keep.

This episode is your permission slip.

Stop shrinking. Start claiming.

Today is Mother's Day.

And for a lot of people it is not a simple day.

Maybe you lost your mom. Maybe you wanted to be a mom and it has not happened. Maybe your relationship with your mom is complicated. Maybe you are somewhere in between celebrating and grieving all at once.

This episode is for you.

I get really honest in this one. I talk about losing my mom and what that grief actually feels like on a day like today. I talk about the love that does not stop just because the presence does. And I talk about what women bring to this world — not just as mothers but as human beings who show up, carry things nobody sees, and love through pain.

I also take a moment to honor the women who wanted to be moms and could not. The ones whose longing is real and valid and deserves to be seen today. The women who chose a different path and had the courage to honor that. And yes — the fur moms too. Because that love is whole and real and it counts.

Today is a day to honor the woman who brought you into this world — wherever she is. To honor the women who mother you without the title. And most importantly to honor yourself. For everything you have survived. For the love you give even when you are running on empty. For the woman you are becoming through all of it.

You are enough. You have always been enough.

Happy Mother's Day. 💛
