  • the grass is greener where you water it
    Jul 3 2026

    EP 103. The mantra ‘the grass is greener where you water it’ has been coming up in my life a lot lately, so let’s chat about it. I’ve been struggling to stay present in my current chapter of life in Paris and caught myself comparing my life to others and falling into the trap of ‘their grass is greener’. Today I want to talk through how this mantra has been helping me come back to the present moment, practice gratitude for this chapter of life, knowing it’s not forever, and 5 ways to help yourself stay present in the chapter of life you’re in.

    1. get off social media
    2. define your values
    3. nothing lasts forever, so enjoy it
    4. make a short term bucket list
    5. identify grounding practices that work for you

  • taking action even when you don’t feel ready
    Jun 22 2026

    EP 102. New look, same podcast, welcome to By Design :) After a bit of a break, I’m so happy to be back to share this rebrand and get back to sharing what’s been on my heart lately. Life has been full of uncertainty and I’ve been feeling a lot of fear around showing up and knowing what next step to take. But guess what… there’s never a ‘right’ next step, no choice is the ‘wrong choice’, all we can do is feel that fear, face that fear, and take action anyway!
