Why do we work so hard to control how someone else sees us

Where does the fear of being misunderstood come from?

And what happens when we finally stop auditioning for approval?

In today’s episode, I share a story from a client session that opens the door to a much bigger conversation about self-worth, nervous system safety, and the patterns we inherit from childhood.

We’ll explore how to recognize the subtle ways we manage other people’s emotions — and how to step into a grounded, confident place where we allow people to have their reactions while staying rooted in ourselves.

If you’re ready to reclaim your energy, this episode is for you.

What happens when your life unravels all at once — your home, your identity, your pregnancy, your job — and you’re forced into a version of yourself you never planned for?

In this deeply personal episode, Marie shares the extraordinary year that dismantled everything she thought she was becoming along with the unexpected rebirth that followed.

From selling the oceanfront cabin that held her heart, to navigating pregnancy loss and career upheaval, to discovering pottery, rebuilding home, and carrying a new life — this is a story about duality, resilience, and the quiet intelligence of intuition.

This episode covers how:

• Grief and joy can coexist in the very same moment
• Identity shifts when external structures fall away
• Creativity can become an anchor during profound change
• Intuition becomes louder when ego dissolves
• Forced transitions can lead to the most aligned chapters of our lives

If you’re navigating uncertainty, loss, reinvention, or a season of “not knowing,” this episode will meet you exactly where you are -- offering grounding, perspective, and a reminder that sometimes the most beautiful beginnings emerge from the ashes of what we didn’t choose.

AKA the hidden psychology of why change feels so hard (and how to make it stick).

Why do we keep finding ourselves in the same struggles -- money stress, chaos, burnout, repeating conflicts -- even after we've worked so hard to move past them?

In this episode, Marie shares the story of almost buying a $1.3M dream house with her fiance, right after becoming fully debt free, and how it revealed the almost irresistible pull of the familiar.

You'll learn why our nervous systems crave the comfort of struggle, how to notice when you're recreating old problems, and the steps to finally break free. If you've ever felt stuck in cycles you can't seem to escape, this conversation will show you how to choose freedom, fulfillment, and the future you actually want.
