Can’t a girl roll down a hill on a beautiful sunny day without rupturing a tendon in her knee?! The answer is no. Apparently the tendon had to GTFO and my Summer had to fold in on itself sending a major curveball through everything in my life that I thought I could control. Curveball is […]

Andy Bernard said, “I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them.” I’ve never forgotten it.  I’ve been a future-focused person for my whole life, and it has served me well. But something needed to shift so that I didn’t maintain that feeling of waiting […]

The personal journal episodes continue today as I talk about the comedown after the recent CHEER CAMP launch. I had a vision for what this episode needed to be, but it didn’t feel quite when I went to record it.  The truth is, the comedown after a chapter of success isn’t always perfectly straightforward.  LISTEN […]

I started noticing the patterns of my thoughts, and the moments that self-doubt would kick in and try to get me to abandon my goals. That changed everything.  Today’s episode is about returning to consistency and small progress, when you start feeling restless or anxious about the hard work ahead. I recommend this episode for […]

I went back and forth a hundred times about posting this fairly short episode today, after having such a profound experience this morning  It is the epitome of first world problems. And it’s likely going to be a difficult listen for those with a different view on the mask mandates lifting here in Canada. I […]

The Body Image Story continues today with Part 4 where I’m talking about my resistance to the concept of body acceptance. I talk about mourning past and future versions of me, redefining what health means to me, re-emerging after the pandemic in a bigger body, and how I’m only now starting to find out what […]

“I believe when you stay close to the flame of whatever you want, it’s easier to stay motivated. I didn’t have that around me at the time, so I needed to go out and find it.”  I’m so excited to dig up an interview with one of the original CHEER CAMP members, Tanya Lupinski, that […]

Hello from creative expression / free play week! I wrote myself a prescription of rest, and it turns out it’s wayyyy harder than I thought it would be. Rest can be triggering when you’re so used to pushing new ideas forward and looking to your achievements for a reminder that you’re doing okay. (But it’s […]

This podcast started in 2018 as a way to document the transition out of my first business as a wedding photographer and into my second as a… (well, I didn’t know what it was going to be at the time — that was the whole point!)  Today’s episode demanded it’s own chapter in the story. […]

It’s taken me a long time to be able to tell this story, but time is exactly what I needed to support myself during this particular chapter where success felt very far away and failure was right there staring me in the face.  “You Might Not Like It” started as a way to document my […]

The CHEER CAMP stories continue today with two members of the first squad, Holly and Val! I’m so excited for you to hear them open up about the “messy middle” of entrepreneurship. We touch on self-compassion, comparison, the ups and downs of your mindset while building the business (& life) of your dreams, and so […]

The last time I fell this flat on my face it took me 6 months to get the confidence to try again. This time, it took me about 2-3 hours. What changed? Find out in this episode as I unpack the absolute flop of a launch that just went down over here as I tried […]

I’ve been hanging out with the members of the first ever squad of CHEER CAMP over the last couple weeks to record these stories and testimonials. Originally I thought maybe I’d put a few nuggets into an episode here and there, but their stories are so powerful and I think you’re really going to relate […]

“You know it when you feel it and when you see it in somebody else,” says Cheer Camper, Holly. “So for that reason it wasn’t like we learned about confidence and then woke up completely transformed like, “cool, I’m so confident now!” But I think confidence is being sure in yourself and knowing who you […]

In this episode I share some of the big takeaways from spending 4.5 hours in a psychedelic mushroom trip, and how the experience changed my life in a profound way. It’s a very candid and honest retelling of some of the abstract things I saw and realized. (I even read some of the words I […]
