Reflecting on all that it means to step into your truest self and honor your own unique journey. Many times we are pressured to follow what other's want of us, which prevents us from living and enduring the life we really want.
Start living for yourself and get clear on what your path is.

Death is one of the biggest fears for most people, but it's also a wonderful teacher. In this episode, I share different perspectives on how we might look at death from the yogic philosophy. Death can be seen as the ending of a cycle which allows us to appreciate and become more present of the now - which then liberates us from fear.

We are all wildly creative beings with the capacity to create anything that we set our minds to. But what happens when we get into a creative funk?
In yogic philosophy, there is a believe that everyone is capable of accessing infinite potential (called "kundalini"). Yet many times our energy centers are blocked which makes it difficult to channel out what wants to come out.
In this episode I share more about how to find flow, tap into flow, and allow ourselves to tap back into the genius state.

My grandma passed away in February 2024, and it was a surreal life moment that solidified all my spiritual growth from the past year.
I was really fortunate to have been there from the beginning to the end. Through my grandma's passing, I saw what a peaceful transition looks like, which completely rewired the way I see life and death.
This episode is a tribute to her, to sharing her bravery and legacy, and to being able to amplify her story to the world.

In 2023, healing was a really big priority for me, as I processed the ending of my marriage and what life 2.0 would look like.
Healing has taken me to various places, from Sedona to Hawaii to Costa Rica to India. I've dabbled deep into trying various modalities of healing, including plant medicines, hypnosis, past life regressions, yoga and meditation, traditional therapy and coaching, and everything in between.
Curious? I'll share sneak peeks into my journey. Anyone on the spiritual path will want to tune in.

Find Your Path podcast is back, with a refreshed look and feel! 🥳 It's been about a year and a half since my last podcast episode and my time away was really intentional. It was a much needed sacred pause that allowed me to burn things down and allow myself to rebuild again.
In this episode, I share all the different life changes that I've undergone on the backend (infertility, separation/divorce, solo international travels, my spiritual pilgrimage through the Himalayas, completing yoga teacher training).
If you're looking for some inspiration, considering taking a sabbatical for yourself, or need a push, you'll definitely want to tune into this episode.

In our lives and in the corporate world we are conditioned to focus only on our Masculine energy and ignore or reject our Feminine energy.

His purpose is to support others in reaching their highest potential and alignment with their truest selves.

I got the inspiration to record this episode of Find Your Path because of a couple of coaching clients that have been getting sick – either with COVID or other illnesses.
It became clear to me. The thoughts that were present, the actions that followed, the pressure we put on ourselves to push through and continue to work, especially if you are like a type-A high-achieving person.
So, in this episode, I'm talking about working while you're sick and how we can reframe how we see working when we're not feeling the best.

Are you a generalist or a specialist?
If you believe that you are a generalist, you think of yourself as the jack of all trades. On the other hand, if you’re a specialist, your niche is too narrow and you may not be able to advance in your career. These are the usual concepts that come to our minds whenever we talk about the difference between these two. What about you, are you in the middle of the trenches thinking about whether you’re a specialist or generalist or where to take your career next?
In this episode, I will be talking about how to know if you’re a specialist or a generalist. I will be sharing some tips for companies to know what kind of employees they need to hire. This episode will remind you that if you’re in a limbo of deciding on whether to be a generalist or a specialist, all you need to have is the honesty within yourself to recognize what are your strengths, where you want to focus and all the other external factors which might affect you.
Tune in to this episode and share it with someone who is at the crossroads of deciding whether to be a specialist or a generalist.

With “hustle culture” and expectations on “being productive,” we’ve been given messages that we need to push and work ourselves to exhaustion. Rest and slowing down is often de-emphasized in today’s overly connected world. But, what if we don’t need to work ourselves to exhaustion before we finally realize that there is a better way of doing things? What if we could take preventative steps to avoid burning out? If you are feeling like you’ve been burning the candle at both ends lately, know that you are NOT alone.
In this episode, I am joined by Duncan So, co-founder of The Burnout Clinic who is an expert in workplace well-being and burnout recovery. He also delivers clinical burnout experiences to help workplace leaders quickly recover from burnout and empower their careers. We tackle a myriad of topics ranging from what burnout really is to identifying indicators that you are experiencing burnout. We share perspectives on what organizations and individuals can do in order to prevent burnout.
Join us for an enriching conversation with tangible techniques to combat these signs of burnout.
