I just got back from a trip to Australia with my husband. He was scheduled to go there on business, so I decided to join him at the end of the business trip so we could do some exploring together.
This was a really difficult decision for me to make on so many levels. I tend to be very practical and sensible, and going on this trip seemed a bit crazy.
But I made the decision to go anyway and saw such amazing benefits. I want to share that with you in hopes it inspires you.
If you tune into this episode of the podcast youâll get to hear a little bit about the things we did on our trip and how it impacted us and our marriage.

My client Katieâs husband ditched her on date night. She was hurt and angry. She wanted to talk with him about it, but she knew it wouldnât do any good coming from a place of anger and frustration. But she couldnât let it go.
So we worked together to create the mental space for her to have that meaningful conversation with him, and as a result, they could both walk away from the experience as a bonding opportunity, instead of a damaging one.
Tune in to learn how you can apply this tool to your marriage for more peace, understanding and intimacy.

Have you ever struggled with thinking you're not a good mom ... or you're not likeable ... or you're not fun? Me too. Those are negative beliefs -- sometimes called limiting beliefs -- and they keep you stuck right where you are at.
What we don't realize is we think these negative thoughts so often that we eventually just take them as truth. But what if these are truths we don't want to believe? Or truths that are not serving us? Then those thoughts have got to go!
So, I am doing this podcast about limiting beliefs as much for me as for you. I want to help demystify this whole limiting belief thing.
My hope is to break the concept down simply and give you 3 easy steps to rid yourself of beliefs that are keeping you from the life you want.
I hope youâll tune in!
