  • Ep. 144: Learning To Stand In Fear, Not Flee From It
    Sep 24 2025

    Send us a text

    This week on Maybe I Can, I’m sharing one of my most humbling experiences to date. I traveled across the country for a speaking conference—only to be hit with unbearable tooth pain, crippling self-doubt, and then the nightmare scenario: I completely blanked on stage.

    In that moment, I wanted to run. To get on a plane, go home, and convince myself I wasn’t cut out for speaking at all.

    But I didn’t run. I stayed. I listened. I learned. And that choice shifted everything.

    In this episode, I talk about:

    • What really happens when imposter syndrome takes over
    • Why failure can either end your story or become the turning point
    • How I’m using this moment to fuel growth instead of quitting

    If you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong, or if failure has ever made you want to give up, I hope my story reminds you that you’re not alone, and you’re stronger than you think.

  • Ep. 143: How to Stop Letting Worry Steal Your Joy
    Sep 17 2025

    Send us a text

    In this week’s episode of Maybe I Can, I’m opening up about something I realized while journaling this morning—how much of my mental space is consumed by worry. From my kids, to travel plans, to speaking events, my brain was spiraling.

    But then I was reminded of something powerful: everything is small stuff.

    In this conversation, I share:

    • Why 90% of what we worry about never actually happens
    • How to catch yourself in the middle of a worry spiral
    • Practical ways I use journaling, breathing, and gratitude to let go of the fear of “what if”

    If you’ve ever felt consumed by worry, I hope this episode helps you shift your focus—from catastrophe to possibility.

  • Ep. 142: When Traditions Fade: Finding Strength in Change
    Sep 10 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Maybe I Can, I opened my journal from three years ago and read a raw, unedited entry I wrote during one of the hardest seasons of my life. I called it Sunday Regrets.

    It started as a reflection on family traditions, football Sundays, Gary’s famous BLTs, and the way we gathered together, and became a window into how grief slowly reshapes life.

    Three years later, I can see how far I’ve come, even as I still feel the sting of loss. Grief isn’t linear, and it doesn’t have an expiration date, but it does teach us to savor the present and create new memories we never expected.

    In this episode, I share:

    • How traditions change as life changes
    • The reality of navigating grief — both then and now
    • Why moving forward begins with one small step

    If you’ve ever felt stuck, frozen in place, or unsure of how to begin again after loss or change, I hope my story reminds you that you’re not alone — and that there’s always a way forward.

  • Ep. 141: Channeling Back-to-School Energy in Midlife
    Sep 3 2025

    Send us a text

    As summer comes to a close, I’ve been thinking a lot about how endings and beginnings are so deeply connected. September has always felt like a “second New Year” to me — a time to reset, get curious, and open myself up to new possibilities.

    In this episode of Maybe I Can, I share why September feels like such a natural reset point, the small shifts I’m focusing on for the season ahead, and why I believe you only need one new possibility to spark meaningful change.

    I’d love for you to listen and reflect with me: What’s your “one thing” you want to explore or shift this fall?

    💛 If this episode resonates, let me know in the comments or send me a message — we’re in this together.

  • Ep. 140: What Really Matters In The End
    Aug 27 2025

    Send us a text

    In this week’s episode of Maybe I Can, I share a perspective that hit home for me during a recent visit with my mom in Florida and a simple game of ping pong with my son.

    It made me ask myself: Am I laboring toward what really matters, or am I losing perspective?

    In this episode, I talk about:

    • Why perspective is everything when it comes to how we spend our time
    • How guilt keeps us tied to productivity instead of presence
    • The truth about what we remember most at the end of the day (and the end of life)
    • Why it’s okay — necessary, even — to choose memories over emails

    As we step into Labor Day (or any season of busyness), I hope this episode reminds you to slow down, release the guilt, and savor the moments that truly last.

    👉 Listen now, and let’s reflect together on what really matters in the end.

  • Ep. 139: Designing A Life You Love... Beyond The 9-5
    Aug 20 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Maybe I Can, I’m diving into something close to my heart: how to design a life you truly love.

    I used to believe adulthood meant responsibilities, 9–5 jobs, and chasing the next salary milestone. But I’ve learned that’s just one lens, and not the only path. Whether you’re a recent grad, a parent watching your kids find their way, or someone asking “what’s next?”, this conversation is about choice, freedom, and possibility.

    I share:

    • How my son’s graduation sparked a new perspective on work and success
    • Why chasing money alone won’t bring fulfillment
    • A powerful Japanese framework called Ikigai that can help you find your sweet spot in life
    • Why it’s never too late to reinvent yourself

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in “shoulds” or pressured to follow the traditional path, this episode is for you.

    👉 Listen in, and let’s reimagine what life and work can look like when we lead with joy and purpose.

  • Ep. 138: REST. The Self-Care We Forget To Take
    Aug 13 2025

    Send us a text

    This week on Maybe I Can®, I’m talking about something I’ve been wrestling with all summer: the guilt that creeps in when we slow down. Between unexpected home repairs, a scary health scare with my dog Yogi, and a pile of work projects, I found myself running on empty — and still telling myself I couldn’t rest because I’d just been on vacation.

    Sound familiar? In this episode, I share what finally made me hit pause, how I reframed my idea of productivity, and why rest isn’t something we have to earn — it’s something we need to survive and thrive.

    If you’ve ever felt guilty for doing nothing, I think you’ll feel seen in this conversation.

  • Ep 137: The Wake-Up Call I Didn't See Coming
    Aug 6 2025

    Send us a text

    This week’s episode is an honest one. No script, no agenda — just me, speaking from the heart.

    After a tough few weeks (a sick dog, financial stress, and the sudden loss of a friend), I found myself spiralling. But through all of it, something shifted.

    I talk about what helped me find clarity in the chaos, how I’m learning to reconnect with gratitude in a way that feels genuine, and why sometimes, we need the hard moments to remind us what really matters.

    If you’ve been in a funk, feeling overwhelmed, or wondering if gratitude is just another self-help cliché… this one’s for you.
