085: 15 Min Fill Up: A Letter To My Future Husband
Friends, you are getting a VERY behind the scenes look into my own journal today!
I have been going on and on about the importance of journaling lately and I mean it!
Getting your thoughts, feelings, emotions, beliefs, and body sensations out of your head and onto paper has immense benefits! The main positive experience is that once they are on paper they are actually out of your head!
This creates so much head AND heart space for newness to show up! A new sense of ease, relief, clarity and flow.
Writing is one of the most powerful tools I use in my own well-being practice and I encourage you to start letter writing today!
This specific #15MinFillUp was vulnerable to read, publish, and share! However, I am all for teaching and leading by example. Of all the guidance I provide you, I am doing my own inner work constantly to lead from the front.
You and you alone are the leader of your life. It's time you step into the role.

073: Ascending Into A New Reality with Caitlyn Pasternak
We are opening up some new realms of conversation in this Friday Fill Up with a powerful leader for feminine ascension, Caitlyn Pasternak.
I asked Caitlyn to share her incredible insight with us about HOW to shift out of this concrete, static reality that tells us who, how, when, and what to be.
Unknowingly, we have been raised in a 3D reality that is maintained in a "right/wrong" mentality.
We have been trained to believe that there are right and wrong ways to do things, limitations, and expectations to abide by.
So many people in this world feel 'stuck' and can't really explain it much more than that because they do not realize how plugging into this matrix keeps us spinning in circles of approval, validation, and the rat race.
This has limited our potential in many ways and in this episode, Caitlyn introduces the gateway to ascending above and beyond the physical realm.
When we begin transformation, we start a journey that takes us out of our external reality and launches us deeper into our vision, what she calls our 'internal reality.' This is the day dreams we exist in when no ones watching. The internal reality exists and can only be found in the depths of your own heart.
Caitlyn talks about how to release any resistance stopping you from going fully towards your soul's purpose and biggest impact.
If you are ready to shift from dreaming to believing in your greatest you, tune into this episode!
The world is waiting for you to show up fully and we are going to guide you in unleashing that heart of yours.

In order to live an empowered life, you must apply your knowledge to your life.

For this 8 episode series, I am sharing my coaching methodology: The 8 Pillars of Empowerment. The 8 Pillars are:
This episodes Pillar, Acceptance is fourth on the list of Pillars because after Awakening, becoming Aware, and Acknowledging your greatness you MUST Accept it! In order to live a fully and consistently empowered life, you must accept how great you are on every level. We resist our brilliance for many reasons but mostly because life has made us believe that it is "good" and "right" to stay humble and/or small. Have you ever caught yourself dimming your light for others? Have you ever realized that you 'tone it down' for fear of being too much? With this Pillar, you will learn the beautiful gift of full self acceptance and celebration. It's time for you to live UNLEASHED!

This episodes Pillar, Acknowledgment, is about actually acknowledging your new awarenesses! We so often try to avoid or resist our feelings, fears, and potential because it feels like uncertain territory. Something to acknowledge to dismantle the mystery of the unknown is to admit that WE are the ones who say so. The unknown is not "scary." It is simply unknown.

061: How One Year With A Coach Saved My Life
Alright, Hearts. This is a powerful #15minfillup that I spend sharing how having a coach in 2016 saved me from myself! At a time of going through divorce, changing careers, navigating adulthood, and trying to all of a sudden come up with a new desired future, I got lost for a while. I went straight from a upward trajectory to a complete breakdown and overwhelm. It was the support and accountability of my coaches that truly supported me in creating the next phase of my life powerfully. A major life lesson that I learned in this time is that time does NOT heal all wounds! What does heal wounds is healing them on purpose. It is taking on the inner work that forces you to confront your fears and empowers you to create your life powerfully. Waiting, hoping, wishing, and avoiding will not help. It is up to you to get out of any rut you are in and I am using this episode to remind you that you can!

054: Giving Up People Pleasing
Have you ever considered that your people pleasing is based on your fears?
You'd rather please others then experience the 'weirdness' of saying 'No' with confidence.
You resist feeling the discomfort of having boundaries AND maintaining them.
In this episode, I share the "and/or" mentality in which you can only have one or the other in life. You must make a trade off when it comes to the things that you want most. You deeply believe that your pleasure and fulfillment comes at a cost to others.
On the opposite end of the spectrum is the "both/and" mentality. Taking on the "both/and" mentality gives you the opportunity to have it all. I spend time in this episode sharing how 'having it all' it requires giving up any undeserving or not good enough story that keeps you in your people pleasing pattern.
This 15 Min Fill Up grants you permission to desire AND go for the life you want!

052: I Left Cushy Corporate Job...Again
I have news that I have been hiding out about...I quit my cushy corporate job...again.
I have been hiding out because many of you didn't know that in the first place...
You see, in November 2017, I launched my book Giving Up Giving Up: the Memoir of a Quitter. In January 2018, I began recording my audio book and launched it by May. I had relocated 3 times in 4 months to promote the book and keep my vision of being a world-renowned author, speaker, and coach alive.
With each personal and business move I made, I was going deeper and deeper into debt. The front end of these projects and starting a business require time, effort, and money that I was more than willing to commit but didn't often have. I was going deeper into debt by the month..by the minute, honestly.
While enthusiastically following through on my creative projects, I was losing sleep about how to complete them AND keep my phone on in order to send the emails and write the posts TO get them out into the world! There were days that I would have speaking gigs or business meetings and trade the gas to get there for groceries after.
Nurturing my business put me $40,000 in debt. Trying to maintain the big picture while scared about the day to day put a lump in my throat. With a career as a speaker, there have been times when that lump kept me from speaking up and getting opportunities that would turn my circumstances around. Nonetheless, I kept chasing my passions without the clearest action plan. I (still) have no idea HOW this will all work out. I just know that with every fiber of my being that it will.
Last winter, I was just swinging for the fences with a hope and a prayer. I was waiting for the gods, angles, saints, and Mother Mary herself to reward me for all of my commitment and dedication to making this world a better, more loving place.
Each of these experiences have been incredibly rewarding in their own right.
I AM an author.
I AM a speaker.
I AM a coach
...and I AM well on my way to getting where I am going.
It has been fun and these huge projects are ultimately all a part of the bigger Hearts Unleashed mission. However, as I have gone with my ideas like a raft down white water rapids, I refused to accept responsibility for the little parts of the big game. With my head in the clouds, I chased big dreams that didn't make sense on paper, to others, or to my bank account.
I was putting together some of my most passionate projects and experiencing the most joy I had ever felt. My heart was constantly swelling and I was constantly bursting out into laughter about how blissful the experience of living fully expressed can be.
On the opposite end of that spectrum, I would come crashing down out of the clouds when I would run out of money to pay my audio book editor. I would wake up panting about how I would find my next client. The looming fear of 'taking a day job' was crawling closer and closer and my scarcity was consuming that joy faster than I was producing it.
Come February last year, I was having regular panic attacks about how to bring this Hearts Unleashed "You can do anything!" message to the world if I couldn't pay my car registration. I felt so low. I felt like I was failing at making a impact and utterly striking out at monetizing it. So after about 5 more swings and misses, I couldn't take it anymore. Scarcity won the battle.
I took a full time job to keep myself from going off the edge of insanity from fear and self doubt. For the last 9 months, I worked a full-time corporate job with all the perks and would rush off at 4 on the dot to coach, write, and speak. I fit the work I was giving my life to into the evenings and weekends. I worked like this for 9 straights months, to keep the heart beat of Hearts Unleashed pumping.
This nine months broke me in ways that would have not happened unless forced upon me. In these nine months:
-I launched the Hearts Unleashed Podcast and hit 2.5k downloads in 16 countries
-Built a team of Women supporting the mission and message
-Wrote two books as a ghost-writer
-Started my second book
-Spoke on stages and stations across the world
-Doubled my social media following
-Signed my highest paying clients
-Had my highest paying weeks and months in my life
-Built an entirely new network of lovers, friends, and collaborative partners in Phoenix
-Made it to Chicago, Cali, New York, Nashville, Vegas, and more
-Grew hella Gratitude
🔥Not to mention, I
-Dated again, laughed, loved, and grew
-Relocated around Phoenix 3 more times
-Lived on my own for the first time in two years
-Got a massage EVERY month
-Made tons of new friends in AZ
-Spent quality time with quality peeps
-Learned new levels of self love and acceptance
-and grew even more Gratitude
This nine months has been insane. This has been nine months of growth AND growing pains. The shin splint kind where you question ever walking again. It has been as rewarding as it has been excruciating.
I left that cushy corporate job on January 4th. I've been working from home for a month now working on the missing pieces in my business. I have been getting back into alignment with my deepest knowing. I have been hiding out about this because I have been wrestling with my ego and inner critic about failing again. I have been doing digital detoxes, writing and burning letters to scarcity, and having rendezvous with my highest self to truly walk the path I see myself on.
I will not dress this up by writing a post about luxury this and 6 figure that (yet) because I am not there (yet.) What I will share with you is how proud I am of myself to be relentlessly chasing my dreams from my soul's purpose. I KNOW that I am here to love and be loved. I am here to spread love and be a radiant beacon of light. I have NO IDEA how I will actually get to some of the mountain peaks in my sights, I just know to climb. Really, to walk in faith.
Something that I accepted around mid December was that I could take a 100 other jobs to just make the money. I could take the highest paying gig they would give me and it would not be fulfilling. I could achieve anything I want in the corporate world and it would not tip the scale on my happiness.
I am here to lead in love. I am here to guide in light. I'm here to support others in living their most authentic life, finding peace, and growing gratitude. I trust this mission so much and there's no possible way that I could turn it off. Honestly, I've tried. It seems easier to want less and yet, there's no fooling the soul. I am always called forward. I have surrendered to that call.
It has become a new stage of self-love and self-confidence that requires maturity, grace, and flow. It requires trust and faith that I've never a practiced in my whole life. I have stepped into self-worth that I have only ever dreamed of and I know there is more to walk into. I have been building an entirely new relationship to myself.
So back to the beginning of this share, something that I noticed is that I had been hiding out about leaving this full time job. People would meet me at a networking event and I would introduce myself as a coach, author, and speaker and yet I knew that I put a logo embroidered polo on Monday through Friday. The contrast embarrassed me.
I have shifted that embarrassment to complete appreciation. Like any, this circumstance was a creation of my own design and perfect for what I was needing in my growth and development. I am grateful for this time of my life.
I didn't feel good while it was happening because of those growing pains I was mentioning. People who knew I took a job would acknowledge me for keeping up with both. At the time, any recognition felt fruitless because I was only present to the contrast. Upon clearing my head and heart, I too acknowledge me for being as committed to my calling as a mother to her child.
Chasing your dreams will test every ounce of your spirit. Living out your soul's purpose demands faith in the unseen, abstract, and intangible. Your patience and sanity will be put to every test and passing them grants you freedom, power, and full fledged self expression. It will require you to believe in yourself more than anyone or anything on this planet. Going for 'it' requires trust and risk taking like you wouldn't believe.
"Can't stop, won't stop" has been the most resounding truth through me for so long. I couldn't stop if I wanted. I have wanted. I couldn't stop if I tried. My heart won't let me because it is entirely more painful to take a job that isn't aligned with my path then to experience the growing pains of this journey. I have FINALLY AND FULLY accepted that I am not stopping so I have decided to stop dragging my feet along the way.
I have stalled all January to share this personally exciting news for fear of judgement. I have withheld so that I could get my footing and stride back without the perceived threat of being doubted. At every phase of leveling up in life, those most common shadows come lurking from their corners.
I have squared up with so many identities of my ego to make this quantum leap and I am still growing. What's different is that I have shifted out of feeling held back by forces greater than me. I am stepping into the current and riding the wave towards my biggest life.
As we move in to February, I am committed to full celebration mode! It is the month of LOVE! It is my birth month and I turn 30! Which I have personally dubbed 👑PRIMETIME👑
You can count on more tales on this coming of age story. You can definitely count on another Update on My Quarter Life Crisis as well!
I am still on my way and I am well on my way.
It is such a pleasure to share the journey with you.
I look forward to supporting you in yours as well.

It will require you to believe in yourself more than anyone or anything on this planet. Going for 'it' requires trust and risk taking like you wouldn't believe.
"Can't stop, won't stop" has been the most resounding truth through me for so long. I couldn't stop if I wanted. I have wanted. I couldn't stop if I tried. My heart won't let me because it is entirely more painful to take a job that isn't aligned with my path then to experience the growing pains of this journey. I have FINALLY AND FULLY accepted that I am not stopping so I have decided to stop dragging my feet along the way.
I have stalled all January to share this personally exciting news for fear of judgement. I have withheld so that I could get my footing and stride back without the perceived threat of being doubted. At every phase of leveling up in life, those most common shadows come lurking from their corners.
I have squared up with so many identities of my ego to make this quantum leap and I am still growing. What's different is that I have shifted out of feeling held back by forces greater than me. I am stepping into the current and riding the wave towards my biggest life.
As we move in to February, I am committed to full celebration mode! It is the month of LOVE! It is my birth month and I turn 30! Which I have personally dubbed 👑PRIMETIME👑
You can count on more tales on this coming of age story. You can definitely count on another Update on My Quarter Life Crisis as well!
I am still on my way and I am well on my way.
It is such a pleasure to share the journey with you.
I look forward to supporting you in yours as well.

039: Discovering Your Inner Children and Becoming your Own Loving Parent with Sasha Frugone
Today's conversation is one to empower the rest of your life! Transformational Life Coach, Sasha Frugone, is teaching us how to discover, meet, and consistently access our inner children. Found in a trash can, adopted, abused, and having faced death multiple times, Sasha teaches us the power of reframing our stories to serves out fullest lives. Inner child work is rooted in healing, recovery, and empowerment. Meeting the younger versions of you that develop their behaviors as survival skills can give you a better understanding about who you have come to be in this day and age. No matter what type of environment we grew up in, by way of being human, we each have inner children that learned how to protect themselves from the perceived threats of the home, relationships, and the world. Comforting these babies of yours can truly set you free. Without conscious inner child work, we think that we as adults have anger, frustration, sadness. We use tactics like manipulation, force, lying, seduction, and more to get our way. These mentalities and survival skills are seeded in scarcity, lack, and danger. None of this is sourced from love and abundance. When we meet our own inner children we also come to discover the highest and best version of ourselves. When we can strip away identity's that no longer serve our higher good and we are granted access to growth, evolution, maturity, joy, freedom, self-expression, and love. Sasha is bringing decades of experience to unleash your heart and inner children. Her loving, maternal energy makes it safe to explore the depths of your heart and meet those babies that need all of your understanding, acceptance, and love. Join us for an incredibly impactful conversation that will have you meeting YOU in whole new ways!
038: 15 Min Fill Up: Diving Into Making A Difference
This 15 Min Fill Up was recorded after a 60 ft scuba dive at Lake Pleasant with some new heros of mine. I learned how to scuba dive with the Diving Devil Dogs of Arizona, an non-profit organization, that supports veterans getting scuba certified and creating healthy coping skills and strategies in transitioning home and thriving after their service has been fulfilled. I faced so many personal fears with men who have given me the gift of my freedom to scuba for fun and not survival. It was breathtaking to dive into chilly waters with men who have faced far more treacherous conditions. Seeing them smile after also diving past their comfort zone was an experience I will never forget. In this episode, I am bringing you the heart of Jimmy Richardson of the Diving Devil Dogs SoCal Chapter. He led this weekend's mission and brought his vets to new territory safely and while even having a little fun! He shares what it is like to dive into your heart and the hearts of others to talk about what is really going on and how to build a community of communication. You can get involved today!
