It’s Personal
WITH GUEST DR. KAREN BRIDBORD
When we think about work, we often think about deadlines, deliverables, and KPIs. But what about relationships? In this episode with workplace psychologist and author Dr. Karen Bridbord, we discuss what it really takes to build strong, healthy connections at work and why those connections matter more than we think. We explore how to communicate with care, but without crossing a line and why appreciation is more than a feel-good gesture, it’s a business imperative.
Adversity is Relative
Do you ever find yourself saying, “It’s not that bad… other people have it worse” In this bonus episode, we explore why we’re so quick to downplay our own struggles and how that instinct can actually hold us back. Struggle isn’t a competition and pain doesn’t need to be ranked to be real. This is a reflection on why YOUR hard is still hard and why giving yourself permission to feel it might be the most powerful thing you can do.
Still Surviving
WITH GUEST DR. REGINA VINCENT-WILLIAMS
What does it really take to survive and thrive when the system is stacked against you? This week, I’m talking with Dr. Gena V, a force of nature whose life is a testament to persistence and purpose. From being forced out of her all-Black high school in the 1970s, to becoming a teenage mother, to earning her doctorate and publishing 14 books, she has kept going, with dignity, clarity and fight. Her story will remind you that survival isn’t just about getting through, it’s about making meaning out of what tried to break you.
The Yellow Light Life
After my cancer scare, I’m now living what I call my “yellow-light” life and I’m deeply grateful for it. Yes, it’s filled with the stress of insurance complications and the mental, physical and emotional load so many of us carry as we hold our lives (and everyone else's) together. But it also is also filled with making time for myself, time that I fiercely protect. I’m here to remind you that you don’t need a health scare to understand that we are all doing the best we can and to encourage you to get comfortable in your beautiful, imperfect life.
The Before and After ME
Have you had a moment that split your life into “before” and “after”? This week, I share my own - an unexpected health crisis that began with a genetic surprise and led to a life-altering diagnosis. From family history to frantic decisions, this is the story of how everything changed overnight and what it means to truly live the life you want for yourself.

I’m sharing a personal story of how I took charge of my own future and the painful reminder that even the best plans need backup. We’re chatting about the highs of ringing the Nasdaq bell, the lows of facing personal loss and why knowing your value and protecting it – legally, financially and emotionally – matters more than ever.

Signs, Symbols, and Seagulls (let’s get woo-woo)
Sometimes, the universe sends you a sign when you need it most. This bonus episode is about those symbolic moments that remind you to trust yourself, even when the path ahead feels uncertain. Following last week’s episode on feeling trapped and searching for freedom, I had an experience that stopped me in my tracks – one that reminded me that there are greater forces at work. And that no matter how many times I get knocked down, I always get back up.
Trapped
Are you feeling trapped in some aspect of your life? Whether it is finances, relationships, obligations or your career, we all find ourselves stuck at different points in our lives. In this episode, I’m sharing some of my own experiences of being trapped and offer ideas about how to begin untangling yourself from the situations and beliefs that are holding you back. Together, we can shift our internal narratives to move toward living our lives in a way that gives us more freedom, agency and meaning.
It Sucks. Losing Someone You Love
Losing someone you love changes everything. Grief isn’t something to fix—it’s something to live with. In this bonus episode, I reflect on the reality of loss, the way it reshapes our world, and why sometimes the only thing to say is, “It sucks.” If you’re grieving or know someone who is, you are not alone.
Be Mine, But Also Be Yours
Are we overthinking Valentine’s Day? Maybe. But it’s hard not to when the holiday often feels like a performance rather than a celebration. Somewhere along the way, love became something to prove rather than something to experience. But real love, the kind that lasts beyond a single day, isn’t about comparison or extravagance. It’s in the small, quiet moments that let someone know you are thinking about them and appreciating them.
Bounce Back: Tips for Building Resilience
Do you ever wonder how some people seem to bounce back easily when life gets tough?

Keep Going
Have you ever had one of those days when everything seems to go wrong? Did one of those days suddenly stretch into one of those weeks? Months? Years? Our newest episode talks about what it feels like to be stuck in a seemingly endless tunnel, waiting to find light on the other side. We’re chatting about resilience – what it looks like, how we find it, and why it’s essential to keep moving forward, even during the toughest times.
The Mother of All Mondays
Big Monday hits hard after the holidays, with its routines and reality checks.

My Pink Christmas Era
What does the holiday season mean to you? Is it joy, nostalgia, a little chaos—or all of the above?

Life Edit
When was the last time you cleaned out your "life closet"? In this bonus episode, Elizabeth dives into what it means to declutter your life – sorting the "yes," "no," and "maybe" piles to make room for the things, people, and experiences that are coming. Inspired by her recent appearance on the Untrained Podcast, Elizabeth explores how letting go of the old can open space for growth, self-discovery, and the more everything we're all seeking.
Untraining ME
I had the privilege of appearing on the Untrained podcast, a show that explores the idea of letting go of habits and behaviors that get in the way of living a healthy, balanced life. In my conversation with hosts Whitney Otto and Iris Zimmerman, I shared how I am “untraining” myself from chasing achievements that don’t align with my values, using small adjustments to create seismic changes.
