This week I want to walk you through something that I do every single year and that I actually just did a couple of days ago for myself. It's something that I always share with my clients and community, and I’ve found it to be super helpful: a mid-year check-in and reset.If you’re someone who starts the year with a lot of motivation, goals, resolutions, and intentions, but somehow halfway through the year, you’ve lost sight of them—or you’re not where you thought you’d be—this episode is for you.Even if you’re making great progress, this is a good opportunity to pause and ask yourself: Are these still the right goals? Are they still aligned? Is my energy and time being invested in the things that truly matter to me today?Let’s be honest, six months into the year, we’ve evolved. Life has happened. We’ve changed. And with that, our priorities may have shifted. It’s okay to pause, reassess, and realign.So in this episode, I want to walk you through what I personally do as part of my mid-year check-in and reset. I’ll break it down step by step. You don’t need to follow my process exactly, but I hope it inspires you to do your own version and helps you move forward with more intention.I’ve created a free workbook to go along with this episode -download it here: https://leadingyourself.myflodesk.com/mid-year-rebootLooking for book recommendations?

“Every time you dim your authentic expression to avoid being a disruption to others, you instead become a disruption to your own alignment — and nothing is more painful than that in the long term.”

Today we’re doing something a little different in this episode. Instead of focusing on doing more, pushing harder, or adding new goals to your plate — we’re flipping the script.Today, we’re talking about letting go.Because sometimes, growth doesn’t come from piling more on. It comes from releasing what’s no longer serving you. Clearing the mental clutter. Softening the grip. Making space.So in this episode, I’m walking you through 10 powerful things you may need to let go of—to create space for clarity, confidence, and peace.Let’s dive in.🌟 A special invitation!I’d love for you to join me at this year’s Thrive Conference. Our theme is Elevate, and it’s all about rising into the next version of your life, with more alignment, presence, and purpose. This virtual event is packed with inspiring speakers, actionable tools, and a powerful community.🎫 Learn more and grab your ticket here: https://leadingyourself.my.canva.site/thrive2025Let’s keep leading ourselves—together. 💛

Today’s episode is all about something we all want more of—but often forget to prioritize: joy.We’re kicking off what I’m calling Joyful June—an intentional invitation to stop postponing joy, and instead choose it on purpose.This month, I’m setting five personal intentions around joy—and I’ll be sharing them with you. I’ll also walk you through a few micro-goals to bring joy into your daily life, and—because you know I love a good challenge—I’ve created a simple Joy Challenge you can join in on this month.So grab your coffee, or lace up your shoes if you’re out walking, and let’s dive into the joy of being alive—right here, right now.

Today’s episode is a bit of a reframe.You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Get 1% better every day.” I’ve said it. I’ve believed it. I still do in many ways.But lately, I’ve been thinking… what if instead of trying to get better at everything, we tried getting 1% more curious?Not just about our goals, but about ourselves. Our thoughts. Our patterns. Our choices. Our joy.Because in my own life, curiosity has been one of the most powerful forces for growth. And today, I want to invite you into that shift.

“You deserve to take up space. The world needs you exactly as you are—with your gifts and your imperfections.”

What happens when you hit the goals, earn the title, and check every box… and still feel like something’s missing? In this episode of Leading Yourself, I share the personal journey that led me to question the definition of success I had followed for years—and what it looked like to start rewriting it on my own terms. We’ll talk about the difference between achievement and alignment, the uncomfortable “in-between” season, and how to start designing a life and career that actually feels like yours. Whether you’re feeling burnt out, restless, or just ready for more meaning—this episode is your invitation to reflect, realign, and redefine what success truly means for you.
