In today’s episode, we delve into the concept of "relationship spirals," where partners get trapped in unhealthy behavioral patterns. Through societal conditioning, women often feel pressured to support their partners' success, leading to self-identification based on their partner's behavior. Conversely, men may internalize beliefs that tie their worth to their ability to make their partners happy. These conflicting expectations create tension and a sense of helplessness in relationships. By becoming aware of these patterns and untangling codependent behaviors, partners can cultivate a healthier, more interdependent dynamic. Join us as we explore how to break free from relationship knots and foster a more balanced exchange of energy and support.

Humans experience circumstances vastly differently. One person can internalize an event as traumatic while someone else who experiences the same doesn't. What is this all about? What is the difference between primary and secondary trauma? Does it matter? Which type of trauma tends to remain unseen (people don't recognize a need to get support after the traumatic event(s))?
As a coach (or any human), it's important to be aware of--especially with respect to current events.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• What primary and secondary trauma is.
• Why we sometimes fail to recognize or acknowledge trauma,
• Signs to help you recognize secondary trauma,
• More about secondary trauma I've been healing from, and
• Societal expectations that condition us to minimize or ignore our trauma.

I used to think I had to be thinner to go to the gym. That sneaky, perfectionistic belief can pop up in surprising ways with self-investment. I’ve had many clients come to me ashamed that they weren’t making “enough” money as a coach or didn’t have “enough” clients. In today’s episode I talk about this perfectionism and what it can look like, and ask questions to help you consider if money is one of the things holding you back from investing in yourself. We then talk about what beliefs you might need to release to open yourself up to receiving everything you’re deserving of. You don’t have to have everything figured out perfectly before investing, or going to the gym, or starting or doing the new thing you want to do.

In this episode you'll learn about:

• How that perfectionism can show up,
• Questions to consider if money is holding you back, and
• Beliefs you may need to release to open yourself up to receiving.

Today’s episode is a really powerful conversation with my dear friend, Hailee. Some organizations, religions, or systems like to promise certainty. “Do things this way, and then you’ll get that result”. But what if it doesn’t work that way for all people? We are multidimensional beings, so it makes sense that different things will work for different people. Hailee and I discuss the before and after deconstructing that idea that there’s one tool or one way to heal and get the results you want. As humans, we crave certainty. But at what cost? Hailee bravely shares how scary it can be to lean into your intuition but when you do, it can bring so much goodness, knowledge, beauty, and healing into the world.
