[Life Intended] What’s Going Right?


Hello Reader,

I'm keeping it short today - the newsletter, this week's podcast episode, my to-do list - everything. We all have enough to do this week, right?!

So, here's a message I feel is both timely and timeless...

What if this holiday season, instead of getting caught up in stress and to-dos, you focused on gratitude?

Not the surface-level or transactional kind we tend to mention around the Thanksgiving table—but deep, intentional gratitude that changes how you see the world.

Gratitude isn't just a fleeting feeling; it's a mindset that can shift our focus from scarcity to abundance.

By intentionally recognizing the good in our lives, we can enhance our mental and emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and build resilience.

Imagine waking up each day and noticing what’s good instead of what’s lacking.

That’s the power of a gratitude practice and what my episode this week is about.

If you don't have a regular gratitude practice, here are a few easy ideas to get started:

  • Pause for Perspective: In moments of stress, ask yourself, “What’s going right?”
  • Gratitude Walks: Use your morning stroll or coffee break to reflect on simple things you truly appreciate. (Get super specific here!)
  • Celebrate Wins: At the end of each day, write down one thing that happened that you’re proud of or happy about.

This holiday season, I challenge you to embrace a mindset of gratitude—not just as a passing thought but as a way of life.

Here’s to a season of abundance and joy,

Hi Reader, Hi friends, One year ago today, I released the very first episode of the Life Intended podcast. Honestly, I hit “publish” with more questions than answers. Would anyone listen? Would they like it? Would they feel inspired? And now, a year later with dozens of powerful conversations, thousands of downloads, and an entire community built around the idea of living more intentionally I can say: it was absolutely worth it. This podcast has changed me.It has given me the courage to own...

Hi Reader, The personal growth world can be loud. And crowded. Fix this. Heal that. Optimize everything. Read this. Listen to that. Adopt this routine. Before you know it, you’re knee-deep in a list of all the things you need to change and all the ways you need to “improve.” But here’s the shift no one talks about:You don’t need more improvement. You need more self-leadership. Here’s the difference: Self-Improvement says: “You’re broken. Let’s fix you.”Self-Leadership says: “You’re whole....

Hey Reader, Have you ever looked around at your life - the job, the schedule, the relationships - and thought:"I have so much to be grateful for…why do I feel so off?" If that’s you right now, you're not alone. A lot of women, especially high-functioning, thoughtful, get-it-done women are quietly carrying a deep, unspoken question: Who am I right now? Not the role you play at work.Not the version of you your family depends on.Not the reliable one, or the productive one, or the one who holds...
