In today’s episode, I share the 3 key ingredients to building an authentic and magnetic brand in the wellness industry.
A brand that doesn’t blend in with everyone else vying for attention and adoration, but instead, a brand that attracts the perfect-fit people in your direction.
The only way to have an online presence that shines is to lean into your most powerful differentiator: YOU - and learn how to leverage it so you can stand out.
I also share how Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, founder of MWH has developed such a powerful brand because she embodies all three of the ingredients I share with you.
If you want to learn how to infuse all of who you are into your business and brand so it stands out, join the free Brand Yourself Challenge starting December 2nd - 5 days devoted to defining your unique differentiator so you can get noticed.

In today’s episode, I dive into one of the biggest reasons anyone feels stuck or unfulfilled at any point in life: a lack of clarity.
From career + growing a business to relationships and love, a lack of vision about what you really want or what will help you move in the direction of what you want is essential!
How? Create space to be still and reconnect with who you are, what you want, and what makes you come alive. And then figure out what you want to point yourself towards.
And I’ve found that the fastest way to bust through the inner muck and murkiness of the mind is this single practice I’m going to share with you today.
Listen to find out what it is, how it changed my life 10+ years ago, and why I lean into it regularly to this day.
I also share a free gift, the Tune Into Your Purpose Practice, a 12-minute guided visualization and a series of writing prompts to help you get clear on what our purpose is in this lifetime.

Happy June!
In this week’s episode, I share why this month - and the summer season in general - is such a nostalgic time of year for me. And remains one of my favorites.
While summer can bring so much energy and aliveness to our lives, it can also inspire slowness and an “out of office” vibe that takes us out of the momentum of growth as entrepreneurs.
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing - but we want to make sure we find a way to balance out the play and the productivity in an intentional way.
Which is why I share 6 things I’m doing to enjoy summertime while also making important and consistent moves inside my business.
Enjoy!
