The World Cup in the USA was not want we wanted, but it turns out, it may be what we needed. I have been completely enamored not by the game, but by watching the fans, the visitors and all the countries involved having the time of their life. I have been scrolling so much fan and visitor content that it is starting to show up in my dreams. On this episode, I share why my heart is so full seeing everyone from around the world come together and just be ok with each other. It started as something of lukewarm interest to me, and have blown up into my entire daily obsession.

After being off the mic for a bit while prepping for a TEDx talk and a few other speaking gigs, I’m back with an update on what’s been going on behind the scenes. This stretch forced me to take a hard look at how I feel, how I perform, and how I show up on stage. I made a decision to drop some weight, not just for health, but to feel lighter and more controlled when I speak. That led me to a binge meal at Olive Garden which was well worth it. Kinda.

I have a story to tell you about blue cupcakes and a woman with no business being in yoga pants, and why I got some sweet revenge without even trying. This episode is part health update, part reality check, and part just making it up as I go.

Two things that bother me, is when people ask what my dream job is, and what is my "why." Just don't ask, because I am not playing that game with you. If you can't figure that out, then you may have a bigger problem than me. I will rebel against this question, by eating pineapple on pizza, and patiently waiting for the revolution. It's time for something big in this world, and I may be just too tired to care about it.
