With the holidays here, there’s often an uptick in depression and loneliness.

So, this week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into what loneliness is, how it smothers our self-love, the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, and how to make small shifts to release feeling this negative emotion. Sometimes it’s as simple as realizing we are not as lonely as we think.

As many as 31 million people worldwide are dealing with some form of addiction, whether it’s drugs and alcohol, food or shopping, gambling, and a host of other behaviors that disrupt their lives and change their behavior. While addiction costs many emotional, mental, physical, financial, and spiritual well-being, the impact on the caretakers is not often accounted for.

The toll is tremendous and undoubtedly works to dim our spirit and often costs us our self-love. That’s why I sat down with Dana Golden, who wrote the book on the Road to Recovery, not only the addicted but also the caretaker. We chat about everything from the emotional cost to how to take care of yourself.

There comes a time where each of us seeks true motivation to heal—a time where we work to release the baggage, the upset, the hard experiences of our lives, and reignite our inner spark. Yet, when that time comes, many of us ask how. How do I even begin to heal? This week we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into YOUR personal story, into YOUR life revolution through a process and path many of us are seeking right now—the process of emotional healing. So, sit back, grab a pen, and let’s take a mending journey together as we discover what true emotional healing is, the benefits, uncover a major “a-ha” moment, whether or not you are in need of walking through this process, and why we must get uncomfortable to thrive. Getting out of own way is necessary if we want to create the life revolution that inevitably amounts to freedom.

Can you honestly say you use your voice and live a life of yeses? Many women struggle with allowing their lives to be what they desire and deem most important.

This week I sat down with Jill Hollander, a resiliency coach who teaches women to find and use their voice. Her unique story of heart failure, a heart transplant, and surviving cancer will move and inspire you as she explains where our voice is first developed, how to be our own advocate, find our unshakable courage, and what it feels like to live a life of yes!

Are you the boss of your emotions, or are they the boss of you? The ability to experience and express your feelings is far more critical than you may realize. Learning how to develop emotional understanding and control is a fundamental part of getting your life together, practicing self-love, and it’s the only authentic way to find a steady stream of inner and outer peace. This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into the impact of your emotions, and then I’ll hand over a simple practice that will stop an emotional reaction in its track every single time.

What would you say if I asked you to name five things you’ve learned during your self-love journey? Could you do it?

It’s a huge question that makes most women stop and reflect. Self-love is an ongoing lifelong journey, but there are definite lessons to reflect upon because loving yourself is not something that only happens in your heart and mind; it’s also found in your actions, beliefs, and the way you show up to your mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial well-being and health.

This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into fairly universal lessons that loving yourself teaches you and how to recognize that you may love yourself a bit more than you’ve given yourself credit.

This week we continue the conversation with Emotion & Body Code Expert Jennifer Bradford in Part 2 of our dive deep into how emotions influence our daily lives. We’re taking you on a journey through understanding the subconscious and its power to release what may be trapped and what you may be broadcasting into your experiences without even realizing it. Jennifer even hands over a powerful practice that you can try today.

Do you make sound decisions and bounce back quickly when hard times occur? Unfortunately, most people struggle with doing so because they are missing one fundamental daily practice that helps them thrive when life brings a storm their way.

What is it? It’s the practice of daily resiliency building.

This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into what resiliency is and how we can mindfully create a practice that helps us not only elevate our thinking and emotional stability but also helps us when we experience massive, unexpected changes like the ending of a relationship, the loss of a job, or even the death of a loved one.

Resiliency is more than bouncing; it’s a life skill built, so we have it when hard times occur. Today I’ll show you exactly how and it is so simple you can start using it today!

Emotions give us humanity, and although we often make the mistake of classifying them into only negative and positive, every emotion is necessary and valuable as they influence every part of our daily lives. We make decisions based on whether we are happy, angry, sad, bored, or frustrated. We choose activities and hobbies based on the emotions they incite. Understanding emotions can help us navigate life with greater ease and stability.

But what happens when our emotions become trapped and are left unhealed? I asked Jennifer Bradford, an Emotion & Body Code expert, that question. Together we deep dived into what emotions are, how they can rule our lives, and how each of us has the power to shift any emotional experience no matter how long ago the event took place.

Your thoughts are powerful. They create your reality, but if your thoughts are not based on truth, the reality you create is off-balanced and holding you back.

This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into examining the common lies we tell ourselves, why these powerful misdirectors show up in our lives, how they run against our ability to love ourselves fully, and how to break up with these mistruths once and for all.

The road to self-love often comes with both endings and new beginnings. Yet, the ends tend to undo us and make us doubt our worth, abilities, and self-esteem, especially when talking about our most intimate relationships.

In continuing our search for building self-love, I sat down with my friend, Laura Patricia Martin, the host of the Happy and Healing Podcast, as she and I moved through what it takes to have full ownership of ourselves, self-love, steady relationships, and then we leaned into the important of self-inquiry.

Let me ask you a question: What do you see when you stand in the mirror? Do you like the way you look? Do you immediately notice your perceived flaws and begin to feel upset with what is before you?

Body image is not merely superficial. It can be so intense that it dysregulates your emotional well-being and mental and physical health, while it creates a storm so big that you struggle to find balance, self-love, and inner peace.

We are taking a one-on-one deep dive into loving ourselves from the outside in! First, we’re unpacking the one mistake most women make when loving their physical form, and it’s different than you might think. And then, we’ll talk about how to change your relationship with yourself so that you can elevate your life.

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why am I here?” “What is my purpose?” Or worse, “How did I get here?!”

Not knowing your purpose or how your life has been molded into something you cannot recognize as yours directly challenges self-love, inner peace, and overall life fulfillment. The trust is taking steps, no matter how small, to live in alignment with our soul’s purpose can drastically change our inner and outer world in ways we can’t even imagine.

To go a step further, to get your life together, you must know what you want and where you’ve been. That’s why I sat down with soul-centered mentor Clarie Campagna to talk about the long-term impact of feeling stuck and uncertain of your life’s path and how each of us can start to identify our needs, passions, and ultimate purpose.

Every day we have an opportunity to start over—to dig our heels in, extract what is working in our lives and give ourselves permission to release what is not. As simple as that sounds, the radical act of starting over is far more entitled and can be paralyzing for some. Yet, no matter how many roadblocks we put in place or experience in our lives, the truth is: that each of us has the power to start over and begin again, no matter our circumstances, our age, or any other excuse we may use to keep ourselves trapped in the small boxes we were never meant to live within.

This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into starting over, how we must confront what makes us uncomfortable, we’ll move through a plan on how to start over in a grounded, centered, and mindful way, and then we’ll uncover how starting over leads us into self-love and inner peace in ways we never thought were possible.

This week we’re doing something a bit different. Life coach Rachel Varitimos from the ‎A to B With Rachel V.  podcast invited me on her show to talk about the long-term impact of negative thoughts and negative thought cycles. The conversation was so good that I had to share it with you. Together, Rachel and I uncover how your thoughts can own you, how to overcome anxiety produced by your thoughts, especially social anxiety, and how to discover your gifts by healing trauma and changing the thought cycle. Because, let’s face it, our thoughts can either support or break us, and without a solid thought foundation, the path to inner peace and self-love is an uphill, impossible battle. The next hour is meant to inspire you to take action to embody your greatest life and hand over the blueprint to ultimate self-love and inner peace.

A misconception about loving ourselves has been touted by self-proclaimed personal development gurus that is dead wrong. Many believe that self-love is a one-off thing that we are “supposed to do.” Yet, the truth is that self-love is the result of healing, growth, and putting all the pieces of greatest selves into place. So, loving ourselves isn’t a “thing” we are supposed to do; it is “THE” thing that is the evidence of our growth.

This week we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into an essential life practice that must be in place for us to reach self-love.

What is it? It’s self-trust.

For many women, confidence is a moving target. It’s something they want but don’t feel they actively have.

To give you the proven steps to build unshakable confidence, I sat down with the queen of confidence building Jacqui Letran. In the next hour, she hands over the roadblocks we experience, the grounded steps to change your lack patterns, and then she walks us through an exercise that has radically changed thousands of women’s confidence levels in a way that can be activated today!

If you struggle with feeling worthy, good enough, or going after your desires, this conversation is step 1 in changing your inner dialogue.

Do you ever feel like you are a different person to different people in your life? Do some people see one side of you while others do not? Or, do you ever feel like you struggle to express yourself fully? Maybe you knowingly hide behind who you truly are deep inside? If so, you are not fully engaging with and living through your most authentic self.

This week we’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into authenticity.

If I were to ask you if you practice self-kindness or fierce loving kindness, could you honestly say yes? Practice as in this is a daily focus.

Most women struggle in this area.

And that’s why I sat down with Rosie Aiello, founder of the Love is Kind network, to talk about how we can bridge the gap between where we are and where we want to be.

Rosie’s story spans the globe as she found herself in a foreign country married to an abusive husband. As the abuse escalated, their daughter Sunny helped Rosie hatch an escape plan that will leave you in awe.
