I am so excited because this is always one of my favorite episodes of the entire year... it is our Valentine's episode!! 

In years past I've interviewed sex therapists, my parents, relationships coaches, and this year I'm so excited to bring on my amazing friend Anya Shakh. 

Anya's goal is to help bring harmony between the sexes during a time where we feel more disconnected and more misunderstood than ever. 

We're all trying to navigate this changing terrain where men and women's roles are becoming more and more blurred, dating has devolv...

Last week we continued our conversation about the 33 lessons I've picked up over the last 33 years. So often I'm in 'coach mode' sharing the facts and figures about how to be healthy.

But if you want to get a little more personal and hear some of the stories that have shaped me, the way I think, and the way I show up for you, all filters are down for these episodes. If you missed part 1, start here. Need to catch up with part 2? Click here. Otherwise dive right in to part 3!

Last week we started a really fun conversation about the 33 lessons I've picked up over the last 33 years. So often I'm in 'coach mode' sharing the facts and figures about how to be healthy.

But if you want to get a little more personal and hear some of the stories that have shaped me, the way I think, and the way I show up for you, all filters are down for these episodes. If you missed last week, start here. Otherwise dive right in to part 2!

12. The biggest wounds often launch the most powerful healing. 

13. Stop ‘shoulding’ on yourself...

On January 19th I turned 33 and it was admittedly an interesting one. 

Did I allow myself a moment at the beginning of the day to mourn the life I thought I’d have by 33 - the house, the husband, the kids? Sure did. 

But then I decided the theme of the day was to follow the joy. 

The joy brought me to my favorite coffee shop with a fantastic book. 

The joy brought me to a reflexology massage and True Food lunch with my friend Brooke. 

The joy brought 6 wonderful women over to my home for a pajama party. These women didn’t know each othe...

 Ever feel like one minute you’re crushing life - knocking through your to do list, easily focusing on different projects, smoking the person next to you in your workout class - and the next minute you're knocked on your ass... can’t keep track of what needs to get done, brain fog is stealing your concentration, and you’re barely making it through workouts that should be a walk in the park for you??

Yeah. Welcome to your hormonal cycle.

The hard truth is our world was not set up to take the monthly hormonal fluctuations every cycling woman...

I don’t know about you but when it comes to making changes in my life, I tend to focus a lot on the doing part of the equation. 

As a recovered emotional eater, I know when you're in it you fee like there's no way out.

You try everything: making bargains with yourself that if you workout x amount of hours you can have those brownies (yet somehow the gym time doesn’t manage to take away the food guilt). 

You tell yourself you’ll just finish this bag of chips, but then you aren’t going to buy them again. Until the next time you’re in the grocery store and they magically find their way into your cart. 

You make rules saying you’ll only eat pizza on the weekends, and t...

This week we continue the conversation of how to get yourself to a better place when it feels like life is just... heavy.

7. Workout (don't skip this one). 

Again, there will probably be a lot of resistance here. But working out is such a fantastic way to shift you into a better state of mind for so many reasons. You get a boost of happiness hormones like dopamine, you increase your energy, you get to listen to that badass playlist we talked about...

We are jumping right back into our conversation from last week's Valentine's Day episode where I'm sharing my most hard-earned lessons from 3.5 years of singlehood and over 200 dates! If you didn't catch the first episode, click here to take a listen!

8. Relationships are not meant to make you comfortable all the time. They're meant to expose the unhealed parts of you that still need tending while holding space for you to work through those parts. And that's hard. 

I do not have better words than this quote from Return to Love:

Summary  

Last week we started our conversation about how to become the type of person who still works out when they're tired, who still cooks when they're overwhelmed, who still goes to bed on time even when their favorite show ends with a cliff hanger and all they want to do is hit that 'next episode' button.

The long and short: how to develop the skill of discipline. 

We got into some really interesting conversations last week around just the first 3 tips, so click here to take a listen before jumping into part 2!
