Floored: Unlocking Pelvic Floor Secrets with The Vagina Whisperer

EP:147 Hey there! In this episode, I'm diving deep into something that changed my life completely - the difference between external and internal regulation. Let me tell you, for years I was that person constantly seeking validation from everyone around me, putting myself last, and feeling frustrated when no one could read my mind. I'm sharing my personal journey of how I transformed from constantly seeking external permission to becoming my own biggest supporter. We'll explore how external regulation looks like constantly waiting for your partner to notice you're exhausted, or feeling angry when your kids don't magically understand your needs. Sound familiar? The game-changer? Learning to check in with MYSELF. What do I feel? What do I need? And most importantly, recognizing that I'm worthy of taking care of myself - not because someone else says so, but because I say so. I'll walk you through practical steps to start your internal regulation journey, share vulnerable stories from my own life, and help you understand that you have everything you need to support your own nervous system. Start your internal regulation journey today! Pause right now and ask yourself: "How am I feeling? What do I need?" #ThrivelikeaParent #InternalRegulation #SelfCare #MentalHealthJourney #parentingtips  Can't wait to hear how this resonates with you!

EP146: Hey there, Thrive Like a Parent community!  In this raw and emotional episode, I'm opening up about my journey through grief, resilience, and unexpected joy.

I'll share intimate moments of my healing process, from struggling through the first three years of widowhood to finding unexpected strength in baseball communities and personal connections. You'll hear about the magic of trusting the universe's timing and how healing isn't linear. If you're navigating grief, parenting solo, or just need a dose of hope, this episode is for you.

EP:141 Hey THRIVE Community!   It’s been four years since Jonathan passed. And in this episode, I’m bringing you into what healing has really looked like—not the polished version, but the real one. From turning my home into a space that finally feels calm… to raising two kids alone… to building a business while still navigating grief—I’ve done a lot of rebuilding. And it hasn’t been linear. I’m sharing: What it felt like to film a vlog on the anniversary of Jonathan’s death Why my Austin Under 40 nomination brought up way more than pride My recent Prenuvo health scan (and why I did it for more than just information) And how the team I’ve built at Thrive has helped me stay grounded—even when life still hits hard This episode isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about continuing to show up for your life—even when it breaks you open. I hope it reminds you: you’re allowed to take your time. And you don’t have to do it alone.

EP:138 Hey there! I just finished watching the Netflix series "Adolescence" and WOW, do I have some thoughts to share!   In this episode, I'm breaking down why this series is creating such a buzz and why I believe we're facing a PARENTING crisis, not just a boy crisis. I'm getting real about the importance of practical parenting - balancing boundaries with love and connection. Key Takeaways: Devices and unlimited freedom are NOT the answer Your kids NEED structure (they actually want it!) Boundaries aren't about controlling, they're about protecting My personal story hits home - with a 50% higher risk of depression in my family, I can't afford to get parenting wrong. This isn't about being perfect, it's about being intentional. #PracticalParenting #ParentingTips #RaisingResilientKids Feeling overwhelmed? Struggling with your child's behavior?
