154: If You Feel Like You've Lost Momentum Listen to this Today
In today's Do Life Big Podcast, I’m getting real with you about something I know so many of us go through… that feeling like you’ve “lost momentum.” But what if that’s not actually true? I shared where I’ve been these past six months... why I stepped back, what life looked like behind the scenes, and how I realized I didn’t fall off… I just grew. Have you ever paused and thought, “Am I falling behind?” Have you ever felt like you’re not showing up the way you used to? What if that pause isn’t failure… what if it’s expansion? In this episode, I’m walking you through the mindset shift that changed everything for me: momentum isn’t about doing more... it’s about alignment. I’m reminding you that you’re not behind, you didn’t miss your moment, and you’re not losing your edge… you’re becoming a whole new version of yourself. This one is your permission slip to stop being so hard on yourself... and start trusting the season you’re in. And yes… I’m back. And we’re just getting started. 💛   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome Back After Hiatus 01:39 Outgrowing Your Old Self 03:05 Life Shifts Behind the Scenes 04:14 Momentum Means Alignment 05:25 Challenging the Pause Myth 07:04 Your Voice Recalibrating 08:16 Next Level Mindset Shift 08:56 What’s Coming Next 09:35 Quiet Growth Is Still Growth 10:50 Final Reminder and Farewell   Hey there!

153: The Hidden Cost of Playing it Safe

153: The Hidden Cost of Playing it Safe
Playing it safe feels comfortable, right? But here’s the truth: safe is actually the riskiest move you can make. In this episode, I’m breaking down the real cost of hiding in your comfort zone—lost time, lost money, lost confidence, and worst of all… lost dreams. I’ll share how saying “yes” to starting a property management company with Nick (even in the craziest season of our lives!) opened doors we never would’ve imagined. And I’ll ask you the same questions I’ve been asking myself: What is staying safe costing you? Where are you shrinking instead of stepping forward? Because regret? That’s heavier than any risk you’ll ever take. This week, I’m challenging you to trade safety for courage and take the leap you’ve been putting off. Your dream life isn’t built in your comfort zone—it’s waiting on the other side of risk. 💥   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to Do Life Big! 01:16 The Danger of Playing It Safe 01:51 Our Leap into Property Management 03:24 The True Cost of Playing It Safe 04:33 Overcoming the Fear of Risk 04:47 Reflecting on Your Own Life 06:23 Choosing Courage Over Comfort 06:44 Closing Thoughts and Encouragement   Hey there!

152: The Power Of Doing Things Differently: Why Following the Crowd Never Works
I’m back after a whirlwind couple of weeks (hello new business!) and today I’m sharing something that’s been on my heart big time: the power of doing things differently. 💥 If you want extraordinary results, you can’t keep doing what everyone else is doing. Period. In this episode, I tell the behind-the-scenes story of our brand-new property management company and how breaking away from the “normal” way has already created crazy momentum. From real estate to fitness to content creation, the same truth applies—blending in keeps you invisible, standing out opens doors. I’ll walk you through how we flipped the script, what I’ve learned from mentors who never follow the crowd, and a simple challenge you can start this week to break free from “average.” If you’ve been feeling stuck or playing it safe, this episode is your permission slip to zig when everyone else zags.

151: You Don't Get What You Wish For, You Get What You Work For
In this episode, I’m keeping it real with you — because the truth is, life doesn’t just hand us the things we want. Success, impact, freedom… none of it shows up by wishing for it. You’ve gotta roll up your sleeves, do the work, and earn it. I share some behind-the-scenes stories from building our new business, the lessons I’ve been learning from some powerhouse entrepreneurs, and why the grind, the persistence, and the uncomfortable growth moments are actually the biggest rewards of all. So if you’ve ever caught yourself waiting for things to “just happen” — this is your reminder that the reward isn’t only in the result, it’s in who you become along the way. 💪 Let’s do life big — and let’s WORK for it!

150: There's Always a Way
Welcome back to Do Life Big! Today I’m diving into a truth that I know you need to hear (because I’ve needed it too, more times than I can count): no matter what you’re facing, there is always a way forward. Maybe you’ve hit that “brick wall” in your business, in your relationships, or even in your own mindset and thought, How the heck am I going to get through this? I’ve been there. But here’s the thing—you always found a way. You’re here right now, proof that you made it through. In this episode, I’m sharing how to shift out of that stuck, victim-mode thinking, how to start asking better questions, and how to see problems not as dead ends but as detours—ones that will still lead you exactly where you’re meant to go. Because listen, quitting isn’t an option. Pivoting? Sure. Getting creative? Absolutely. But giving up? Nope, not here. You’re stronger than you think, and the solution is always closer than it feels. Tune in and let’s talk about how to keep moving forward when life feels impossible. You’ve got this—and I’m here to remind you of it.   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to Do Life Big 01:10 The Power of Believing in Solutions 02:08 Overcoming Obstacles in Life 04:08 Finding Solutions in Business and Relationships 04:23 The Importance of Mindset and Energy 05:36 Approaching Problems Differently 06:24 The Secret Sauce: Better Questions 06:48 The Victim Mentality vs. Solution-Oriented Mindset 09:00 Final Thoughts and Encouragement   Hey there!
