In this episode, I sit down with my client, Jenn Graus, LCPC of Thrive Head Co. to explore the powerful connection between personal development and professional growth. We dive into what it really means to show up authentically in business, why putting yourself out there matters, and how curiosity is the key that unlocks transformation.

When you know yourself, every experience becomes an opportunity for growth: you can learn from anything and apply that wisdom to both your life and your leadership. We talk about how self-awareness builds authentic leadership, why openness is the catalyst for positive change, and how showing up as your full self ripples into your business and relationships.

This is an invitation to reimagine success: not by performing, but by being authentically you.

Sometimes the biggest shifts in business don’t come from sweeping strategies or 5-year plans, they come from the tiny, everyday choices that shape how you lead, communicate, and connect.

In this episode, we’re diving into the micro-moments that quietly influence your business and leadership. The way you pause before responding, how you hold boundaries in real time, even the tone you bring to a team check-in...these are the moments that either root your leadership in alignment or pull you back into survival mode.

You’ll learn why micro-moments are the hidden leverage point for creating safety, authenticity, and sustainable systems, and how nervous system awareness can transform the way you lead—not just your team, but yourself.

This conversation is a gentle but powerful reminder: your leadership isn’t built in the big wins, it’s sculpted in the micro-moments you live every day.

🪩 If you’ve been craving a more grounded, authentic way of leading, this episode will show you why the small things really are the big things.

When was the last time your creativity felt truly alive? In this episode, I explore the deep connection between nervous system safety and creativity in leadership and business. Too often, we try to “fix” creative blocks with strategy, structure, or more discipline.

But the truth is: you can’t access your full creative capacity when you’re still operating from survival mode.

We’ll talk about why authentic expression is impossible when your body is bracing, how hustle culture quietly shapes your creative habits, and why creativity is actually one of the clearest reflections of internal safety.

If you’ve ever wondered why your voice feels muted, your content forced, or your vision blurry, this conversation will shift how you see both creativity and leadership.

✨ Highlights:

→Why nervous system regulation is the foundation of authentic creative expression →The subtle ways hustle culture hijacks creativity in leadership →How to reclaim creativity as a mirror of safety, truth, and alignment →Why business itself is a creative practice

This isn’t about creating more content...it’s about reclaiming creativity as strategy, nervous system intelligence, and rebellion against hustle culture.

In this introspective and grounding solo episode, I explore the truth we often try to avoid: that what we don’t face within ourselves doesn’t just disappear...it shows up in our leadership, our systems, and our team dynamics.

From the meetings that feel forced to the SOPs you never update, avoidance has a ripple effect.

We talk about how emotional bypassing leaks into our communication, how dysregulation in your nervous system becomes the unspoken blueprint for your business, and why your team and clients feel it...even when you never say it aloud.

If you’ve ever told yourself, “It’s just me,” this episode is your gentle mirror. I invite you to pause, reflect, and root into the truth that your leadership doesn’t need to be perfect—it just needs to be present.

If this resonates, you can explore these ideas more deeply inside my self-paced course, The Conscious Alignment Blueprint.

If the grass is greener over there… why are you still here? What happens when we keep choosing everything, seeing everything...except ourselves?

From breathwork to journaling to self-care rituals, we often check the “healing boxes” without ever asking: Are we actually facing what needs to be healed

Or, better yet… Do we even feel healed?

Today, I’m sharing what it really costs to avoid your own becoming, and why the only way to create the life you’re aching for is to stop running, soften into your truth, and finally choose you.

This conversation isn’t about fixing or forcing.

It’s about truth-telling. Gentle witnessing. And remembering that the greener grass you’ve been seeking might just be waiting in the parts of you you've been avoiding.

→ Inside this episode:

• A gut-check on whether you're actually moving forward or just circling
• The hidden cost of not choosing yourself
• How your presence impacts everyone around you (yes, even when you think you’re “holding it together”)
• An invitation to stop chasing and start returning to your wholeness

I’ve been thinking about how we learn to choose ourselves. When we choose ourselves even when no one’s clapping yet. In this casual and honest chat with content creative, full-time project manager, wife, mom, and business owner, Alex Williams, we dive into the ripples of saying “why not me?” and letting visibility feel like liberation, not performance. We lean into: 🖤 The emotional labor of allowing ourselves to be seen 🖤 Quietly unlearning the belief that we’re “too much” 🖤 Trusting your voice long before it’s validated This episode isn’t about the finish line. It’s about the unsure, I’m-still-figuring-it-out messy middle...the unraveling and the remembering. If you’ve ever wondered whether your story matters (spoiler: it does)—this one’s for you.
