    Nov 11 2025

    In this episode, we explore:


    • How The Joy Method™ supports calm and clarity in motherhood
    • Letting go of “perfect” and finding peace in the present
    • Motherhood as sacred, world-changing work
    • Simple daily tools to bring yourself back to joy

  • 29. Homecoming Series, Part 4: A Decade of Sobriety — 10 Lessons for Joyful Living
    Sep 23 2025

    Ten years sober. A whole decade of lessons, growth, and coming back home to myself. 🎉 In this episode, I’m celebrating this milestone by sharing the 10 biggest ah-ha’s from my sobriety journey.


    This isn’t a polished recovery story. It’s the messy middles, the radical self-compassion, the surprising power of boundaries — and how choosing not to numb became the doorway to Joy.


    Because here’s the truth: it’s not just about addiction. It’s about the courage to feel.


    ✨ In this episode, I share about:

    • 10 lessons from a decade of sobriety
    • Breaking free from self-punishment
    • Turning shame into a catalyst for change
    • Boundaries as an act of self-love
    • Befriending yourself (imperfections included)
    • Daily practices that anchor you back to alignment
    • And the reminder that your real “home” is yourself
