• Clarity Doesn't Want Certainty
    Feb 18 2026
    Clarity comes before certainty.

    In this episode of Intuition: Your Joy Compass, I talk about something that quietly fuels self-doubt for so many smart, capable women: the belief that we need certainty before we move. Spoiler alert, we don't. I share the real difference between clarity and certainty, why a loud, busy mind is not the same thing as a clear one, and how waiting for guarantees often keeps us stuck and second-guessing ourselves.

    Through personal stories (yes, including adopting two cats and making big life decisions without a crystal-clear roadmap), I walk you through how clarity actually shows up, subtle, steady, and often without fireworks. This episode is about learning to trust yourself, take small self-led steps, and quiet the inner critic that keeps asking for proof instead of permission.
    If you've been circling decisions, overthinking, or waiting to feel "100% sure," this conversation will help you reconnect with your intuition, strengthen self-trust, and move forward with more ease and confidence. Listen or watch this episode of the podcast and explore what it really means to live and decide from clarity, not certainty.

  • How Loud is Your Brain?
    Feb 4 2026

    Feeling mentally cluttered as you head into the new year? You're not alone, and you don't have to stay stuck there.

    In this episode of Intuition: Your Joy Compass, I'm welcoming 2026 with a deep breath, a hopeful heart, and one powerful word: Clarity. After a bumpy 2025, I'm reflecting on how tuning in, rather than buying into outside noise, can help you access real direction, especially if you're a woman navigating business, life, and everybody else's opinions.

    We're talking about:

    The trap of mental noise and how it blocks intuitive decision-making
    The "house of they" (you know, them) and how to evict their voices from your brain
    How your inner critic thrives on chaos—and how to lovingly show it the door
    Why a single word of the year can help anchor your joy and focus
    Practical tools to shift from spiraling to self-led, even when life feels loud

    This episode is packed with real-life stories, powerful reframes, and gentle yet practical support for anyone ready to turn down the volume on the inner critic and make space for clarity, joy, and aligned choices.

    🎧 Listen now and choose your word, your intention, and your joy.

    Then learn more about my eight-week program, Living in Clarity, for those ready to rewire their brains and live with steady intuition and self-trust.

  • How The Experience of Joy Works
    Jan 21 2026

    Joy doesn't mean perfect; it means present.

    In this episode of Intuition: Your Joy Compass, we explore how joy isn't something to chase; it's something to allow, even when the dishes aren't done and the world feels a bit off-kilter. I share how joy became confusing for me growing up, but also how it's become the compass I now live by (with plenty of humor, horse metaphors, and real-life examples included).

    We'll talk about how calm intention makes space for joy, why your joy is never selfish, and how to stop performing happiness and start feeling it instead. Whether you're managing a business, a team, or your own wild calendar, there's room for everyday joy, and I'll show you how to find it in even the messiest of moments.

    In the first episode of Intuition: Your Joy Compass, I'm inviting you into a conversation that's been years (and about 300 episodes!) in the making. We're not here to escape the human experience; we're here to integrate it with our soul's joy and live more fully because of it.


    I share what joy actually looks like in real life, not the performative kind, but the grounded, soul-led version that shows up in dog walks, needle felting, and choosing peace over perfection. You'll hear practical tools for tuning into joy through your body, mindset, and intuition, even in the messy moments.

    If you're a woman in business or life reinvention mode, and you've ever wondered how to stop chasing success and start feeling aligned, this episode is your sign.

    In this special episode of Intuition: Your Joy Compass, I'm pulling back the curtain on a major shift. After 325+ episodes, I'm renaming the podcast (formerly Your Success Compass) to reflect something that's been true all along: success means nothing without joy. And joy? That's your soul's frequency.

    We'll talk about why this change matters, what it means to live aligned without abandoning your human experience, and how embracing joy—even in grief—can deepen your purpose, your business, and your sense of self. This isn't just a name change. It's a movement toward more authentic living, intuitive decision-making, and giving ourselves permission to define success on our terms.


    If you're a woman 40+ navigating business, change, or self-doubt, and you're ready to lead with intuition and a little rebellious joy—this one's for you.

  • Calm Leadership and The Power Through Presence
    Dec 17 2025

    Let's retire the outdated idea that softness equals weakness.

    In this episode, I'm inviting you to explore what it means to be calm and commanding, soft and strong, gentle and effective.

    We're redefining power, not as force, but as presence.

    We'll explore:

    • The Positive Intelligence perspective on Sage-led power.
    • Saboteur myths about pushing being the way"
    • The inner stability that changes how you show up.
    • Why stillness is sometimes the most strategic move.
    • How clients in Mindset Breakthrough reclaim peace without losing progress.

    If you're craving a way to lead your life, your business, or your relationships with quiet confidence, this is your reminder that peaceful and powerful are not opposites.

  • Look At You Performing for Others... How About for Yourself Now?
    Nov 19 2025

    You weren't born to perform, unless you're Meryl Streep (She's soooooo good). You were born to be you.

    But somewhere along the line, most of us got the message that we had to shape-shift, overdeliver, or hide our truth to fit in.

    In this episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, I'm calling out the masks we wear at work, in relationships, even in our own self-talk, and how to let them go gently. Because being palatable isn't the goal, being aligned is.

    What I get into:

    • The Saboteur voices behind performance patterns.
    • How your Sage knows who you truly are.
    • Why ditching people-pleasing is the ultimate freedom move.
    • A simple Positive Intelligence practice to break the perform/doubt cycle.
    • How I support clients in Mindset Breakthrough to stop proving and start living.

    If you've been trying to earn your worth or audition for love and success, this episode is your gentle but firm invitation to put the script down and come home to yourself.
