2025/12/29

Text your thoughts and questions! While every year asks so much of us, it seems 2025 has asked us to stretch and adapt more than usual.

2025/12/22

Text your thoughts and questions! One of the most common things I hear from clients and listeners isn’t “I don’t know what to do,” it’s “I can’t decide what to do.” We know what’s on our overwhelming task list, but prioritizing, selecting, and making sure we’re doing the right thing at the right time is exhausting. Decision fatigue is real and can lead to burnout faster than you realize. This week, on episode 293 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I’m sharing five simple filters to help you m...

2025/12/15

Text your thoughts and questions! The end of the year brings a very unique kind of pressure. We’re closing out projects, preparing for new ones, finalizing finances, coordinating schedules, attending events, and trying to wrap up the year in ways that feel meaningful and productive. And all of that’s on top of our already busy schedules and the added layer of the holidays. As if that isn’t already a recipe for burnout, for those in the northern hemisphere, this happens in a season when our en...

How Practicing Gratitude Can Make You Happy

Positively Living®: Shame-Free Productivity... ·

2025/11/17

Text your thoughts and questions! Practicing genuine gratitude is often overlooked because it’s such a familiar term that it's become a bit of a throwaway idea, popping up on every self-care list and journal prompt. It’s also become the unofficial theme for November, with quotes, signs, and all manner of reminders to “be grateful” without understanding the context. But beneath all of the hype is a truly transformational practice. This week, episode 288 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is abo...

Text your thoughts and questions! Are you struggling to support the men in your life—your husband, sons, partner, or father—who feel the pressure to be strong, stoic, and silent?

Text your thoughts and questions! If you’re anything like me, you know the holiday season is coming, and yet, it somehow always feels like it sneaks up on you, trading your joy for what feels like an impossible to-do list.

When Productivity Isn't Good for You

Positively Living®: Shame-Free Productivity... ·

2025/10/06

Text your thoughts and questions! The relentless pursuit of productivity has a dark side: the pervasive and false belief that our worth is directly tied to our output. Too many of us are trapped in this cycle, feeling intense guilt whenever we rest or worry that slowing down makes us "lazy." This toxic belief system, relentlessly reinforced by hustle culture and outdated capitalist conditioning, is the most direct road to burnout and emotional exhaustion.

Text your thoughts and questions! If you’re feeling constantly on edge or overwhelmed by life’s demands, you’re not alone, and your nervous system might be the reason why! Think of the nervous system as your body’s communication highway, with messages on what to think, feel, and do traveling at hyper speed.

Text your thoughts and questions! Have you ever dismissed a small step because it feels like it won't make a difference, or felt discouraged when you don't see immediate results? We live in a culture that glorifies big leaps and instant success, but the truth is, lasting change is built through the small, consistent choices we make every day.
