  • EP163: Why I love endings (And you will too)
    Jan 12 2026

    Endings make people uncomfortable—but they are often necessary.

    In this episode, Dana shares why she loves endings and challenges the idea that staying is always strength. She discusses divorce, quitting jobs, leaving long careers, ending friendships, saying no, breaking cycles, and releasing habits that no longer align—especially in motherhood, where endurance is often glorified.


    This episode is an invitation for anyone who feels something in their life quietly asking to end. Endings aren’t failures; they are acts of self-respect and the beginning of alignment.

  • EP162: MAMA REBORN | Reminders for when you feel overwhelmed in motherhood
    Jan 7 2026

    Motherhood can feel heavy... Especially when social media makes it look like everyone else has it all together. They don’t. Comparison steals your joy, and most of what you see online is just a highlight reel.


    You are human. You will make mistakes. What matters isn’t perfection—it’s owning them, repairing when needed, and choosing not to repeat the same patterns.


    It’s okay to feel frustrated with your kids. That doesn’t make you a bad mom—it makes you an honest one.


    When your child is fussy, clingy, or acting out, remember: they’re not doing it to you. They’re acting that way because they need something and don’t yet have the words to ask.


    You’re allowed to ask for help.

    You’re allowed to need time alone.


    And let’s be clear—showering, eating, cleaning, cooking, or running errands alone is not a break. Those are basic human needs and fundamental rights.


    Real self-care isn’t selfish—it’s necessary.

    Taking care of yourself is how you show up, not just survive.


    This is your reminder: you matter too.

  • EP161: Starting 2026 off with powerful intentions
    Jan 5 2026

    What if your goals for the new year didn’t start with a to-do list… but with a feeling?


    In this episode, Dana is sharing why she chose a word of the year—not based on what she wants to achieve, but how she wants to feel. She talks about manifesting in a way that’s actually sustainable: not forcing outcomes or obsessing over a perfectly mapped-out plan, but aligning your daily actions with the energy you want to live in.


    Dana opens up about why she is intentionally not over-planning 2026—and how trying to control every step can actually block what’s meant for us. This conversation is about releasing timelines, trusting God and the universe, and finding freedom in showing up fully while letting life meet you there.


    If you’ve been craving more ease, clarity, and alignment this year—this episode is your permission slip to trust, soften, and move forward anyway.

    Nov 24 2025

    December has a way of revealing the truth — what’s working, what’s draining us, and what we’ve quietly outgrown. In this episode, Dana explores the signs that a chapter is ending, why the holiday season amplifies our inner knowing, and how to let go without guilt. If you’ve been feeling the pull to move on from something — a mindset, a friendship, a romantic partner, a habit, a version of you — this episode will give you clarity, comfort, and the courage to choose yourself before the new year begins.

  • EP159: When you know what you need to do... But you're not doing it
    Nov 17 2025

    You know what you need to do — move your body, eat cleaner, write the book, make the product, post the content, make the call, start the thing…


    So why aren’t you doing it?


    And no — it’s NOT because you’re lazy, broken, or unworthy.


    This episode dives deep into the real reason we get stuck in the space between knowing and doing. Why our minds say “I want this,” but our behavior says “maybe tomorrow.” And how to finally break that cycle — gently, honestly, and powerfully.


    We’ll talk about:

    • Why your brain resists change (even the good kind)

    • Why more motivation won’t fix it

    • The REAL reason procrastination shows up

    • How to make taking action feel safer

    • Tiny steps that build trust and momentum

    • The identity shift that changes everything


    Your future self is waiting.

    This episode helps you meet her halfway.

  • EP158: The 20-minute rule: How to stay grounded in the fun (and madness) of the holidays
    Nov 10 2025

    This time of year can pull you in a million directions — between work, family, friends, and expectations, it’s easy to put yourself last. In this episode, Dana gets real about true self-care: not the fluffy kind, but the kind that keeps you from snapping, shutting down, or burning out. You’ll learn how to take intentional time for yourself — even if it’s just 20 minutes — and why doing so makes you stronger, calmer, and more connected. This is your reminder that taking care of yourself isn’t selfish; it’s how you stay you.

  • EP157: Finish like a badass | How to end 2025 strong (even if you're tired as hell)
    Nov 3 2025

    You’ve made it this far — exhausted, over it, and maybe wondering where the year went. But guess what? 2025 isn’t over yet.


    In this episode, Dana delivers the unapologetic reminder you need to stop coasting, stop comparing, and start finishing the year like a badass.


    We’re ditching the burnout mentality and redefining what “finishing strong” actually means — rest, reflection, and realignment. You don’t need a new year to start showing up differently. You just need to remember who the hell you are.


    🎧 Tune in for a mix of motivation, mindset, and real talk that’ll light a fire under you as you head into 2026.

  • EP156: Do it scared. Do it alone. Do it broke. Do it anyway | The Dana kick in the ass you need
    Oct 13 2025

    In a world obsessed with likes, followers, and validation — this is your reminder to show up anyway. This episode is for the woman doing it scared, doing it broke, doing it tired, and doing it alone. Whether you’re building a business no one believes in, recording a podcast that hasn’t “blown up” yet, mothering without a village, or healing in silence — this one’s for you.


    Because real growth doesn’t happen when people are clapping for you. It happens when no one’s watching — and you decide to keep going anyway.


    This is your reminder: You don’t need the applause. You need the discipline.

    You don’t need validation. You need vision.

    You don’t need support. You need self-trust.
