“How much time are you giving yourself for your own goals and dreams?”

In this episode, Amber breaks down what it truly looks like to command your time—and why it matters more than you think. This isn’t some productivity hack episode. Instead, Amber explores time as a resource, a reflection of your values, and a gateway to wellness, creativity, and rest.

Through personal stories and practical insight, she shares five impactful time strategies that have helped her write books in under two weeks, be a good friend, and live a life aligned with her values. She challenges the myth of being everywhere for everyone, and offers simple shifts that help you show up more fully—for your goals, your people, and yourself.

From scheduling bleach sessions to honoring admin days and learning to say no to baby showers (without guilt), Amber makes a case for time management as an act of self-trust and liberation. This episode will help you stop reacting to life and start designing it—with room for joy, breath, and real presence.

If you're feeling stretched thin, off track, or simply tired of running late on your own dreams, this one’s for you.

In this final installment of the Get Grounded series, Amber invites us into a powerful reflection on choosing to see the good—even when life doesn't look (or simply feel) good.

Drawing from her own challenging experiences in corporate America, Amber walks us through the mindset shift that helped her reframe frustration, inequity, and burnout into fuel for building a meaningful, purpose-led life. She emphasizes the importance of intentionally seeking the good in life, such as by practicing gratitude and training the mind to focus on finding the good, even at tough times.

As she puts it, “Finding the good isn't about erasing the bad... but finding the good does remind you that the bad isn't the whole picture.”

Whether you’re in a tough season or simply trying to train your mind to notice what’s working, this episode offers practical tools for reclaiming joy, perspective, and presence.
