175: The Reconnection Series

Sometimes the next chapter of your life isn’t about becoming someone completely new. It’s about coming home to YOU. This series was born out of navigating new beginnings, big transitions, and those seasons where life changes and somewhere along the way, you realize you’ve become disconnected from yourself. Maybe you’re navigating an identity transition. A professional transition. A personal transition. Or maybe you just know that who you’ve been no longer feels aligned with where you’re going. The Reconnection Series is about reconnecting back to YOU. Who you really are. What you want. What you truly desire. What matters to you and WHY it matters. Because we are navigating BIG, FULL lives. We’re ambitious. We want more. We want to grow. We want to become better. And at the same time, we’re navigating obstacles, circumstances, pressure, and transitions that can pull us away from ourselves. Throughout this series, we’re going to reconnect to four things: CONNECTION to what you want and why it’s meaningful to you. PURPOSE and what you are uniquely here to bring to the table. DRIVE and how to honor your ambition while still having gratitude for where you are right now. COURAGE to do hard things, navigate pressure, and confidently move through whatever season you’re in. In this introductory episode, I’m sharing how The Reconnection Series was born, why I created it, what we’re going to work through together, and what I want you to walk away with on the other side. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself lately or you’re standing in the middle of a transition wondering who you are in this next chapter… Start here. Go listen to Ep. 175: The Reconnection Series now. Then, come join The Shift and do this work with us this month, starting tomorrow, Thursday, September 3rd. Join The Shift Here

174. Replay of Following Your Desire

What if the life you actually want is on the other side of being willing to feel a little discomfort? In this episode, I talk about what it looks like to stop living for what others expect and start asking yourself, what do I really want? Because it’s not more work that’s stopping you. It’s the fear of feeling things like guilt, disappointment, or letting people down. But on the other side of that is more freedom, more peace, more energy, and more trust in yourself. Find out how to follow your desire and why it can actually give you your energy back in this episode. And come join us inside The Shift, where you can gain the confidence to step into the life you truly desire. Join The Shift

173. Lead Your Life

You don’t need a title to be a leader. You already are one. The question is whether you’re intentionally leading your life or allowing your life to lead you. In this episode, I talk about stepping into your leadership identity at work, at home, and in the decisions you make for yourself. Leadership is being willing to go first. It’s leading when no one is watching. It’s helping others grow while also being willing to receive feedback, criticism, and leadership yourself. And it’s trusting your own capability enough to take responsibility for where your life goes next. You can’t expect to have great leaders in your life until you’re willing to become one yourself. If you’ve been feeling like life is happening to you instead of YOU creating what happens next, this episode is for you. If you’re ready to start leading your life with more clarity and confidence, book a consult below and let’s talk about how coaching can help you get there. Book a Consult Here

Are you feeling unfulfilled in your job but unsure what to do next? Most people stay stuck because they don’t have a clear plan. They wait to feel ready, keep wondering “what if,” and never give themselves permission to go after what they truly want. In this episode, I walk you through my simple 5-step process to confidently make any career change by getting clear on what you want, stepping into the identity of the person who already has it, and taking massive action towards it. The result? You’ll stop spinning in indecision, gain undeniable confidence, and make your next career move feel doable NOW instead of overwhelming.

171. Shifting Identities

Every goal you have requires a new version of you. The question isn’t, “How do I get there?” It’s, “Who do I need to become?” In this episode, I walk you through the process I use to make every identity shift, from Flight Nursing, to entrepreneurship, to creating a life I truly love. We talk about committing fully, taking massive action, evaluating what’s working, and most importantly, learning how to think, believe, and show up as the future version of yourself before the results ever arrive. Because the faster you stop looking back at who you used to be and start pulling from who you’re becoming, the faster your life begins to change. If you’re ready to stop waiting and start becoming the person who creates the life they truly want, this episode is for you.

170. Fear of Failure

This episode is for the ambitious person who knows they’re capable of more… But keeps playing smaller than they want to. Not because they’re lazy. Not because they don’t want it enough. Because they’re terrified of going all in…and failing. Because then what? What if you don’t get the job? What if the business doesn’t grow? What if you give it everything you’ve got and it still isn’t enough? Here’s what I know. You can never lose when you play all out. Because even if you don’t get the result you wanted, you become someone completely different in the process. Someone who is braver. More resilient. More capable. Someone who now knows what it feels like to bet on themselves. That version of you will always outperform the version that stayed comfortable. The people creating extraordinary lives aren’t fearless. They’re just willing to feel fear and go anyway. They stop asking, “What if I fail?” And start asking, “What if I succeed?” What if going all in changes everything? This episode is an invitation to stop protecting yourself from failure and start building a life you’re proud you had the courage to pursue. Join us inside The Shift, where I’ll help you stop spinning, start taking bold action, and become the person who creates the life they truly want. Details on The Shift Book a 1:1 Consult

169. Unlocking New Levels of Hard

The people who create extraordinary lives aren’t the ones who avoid hard things. They’re the ones who lean into them. In this episode, I share what Flight Nursing, entrepreneurship, and even the World Cup taught me about unlocking new levels of capability. Because how you show up in practice is how you’ll show up when it matters most. Every time you choose to lean into the hard instead of pulling back, you stretch your capability. And once you reach that next level, it becomes your new normal. You don’t discover what you’re capable of by staying comfortable. You discover it by choosing the hard over and over again. If you’re ready to stop shrinking from challenges and start becoming the person who can handle them, this episode is for you. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Inside The Shift, I’ll help you build the confidence, mindset, and tools to lean into the hard and create the life you truly want. Details on The Shift Book a Consult for 1:1 Coaching

167. Confidence Without Time & Experience

This is a must listen episode. One of the most common questions I coach people through is: How do I show up confidently in something I've never done before when I don't have the time or experience yet? In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of a real coaching session and show you exactly how I help someone build confidence before they have the evidence. You'll hear how we move from self doubt to a clear plan, how confidence is created ahead of time, and what it's really like to have a coach helping you navigate uncertainty. You no longer have to struggle alone. Having a coach can help you get out of spinning and overwhelm, create a clear plan, and move forward with clarity instead of staying stuck. If you've ever felt held back by inexperience, this episode will change the way you think. It's also a glimpse inside The Shift, where we build confidence, create momentum, and learn how to show up as our highest selves both at work and at home. Join us inside The Shift Here
