106 - Why Small Steps Matter24 sept. 202500:15:35

We live in a culture obsessed with big leaps and overnight success. But real transformation doesn’t come from dramatic shifts.

That’s because: Small steps are not a consolation prize. They’re the bridge between stuckness and possibility.

In this episode, we explore why small steps matter and how they create the foundation for meaningful, sustainable change.

Tune in, then join me in Resourced — a 12-week journey to reclaim your pace, power, and relationships through nervous system re-patterning. We begin September 30th. I hope you’ll be with us.

Have you ever wondered what might happen if you abandoned the endless expectations and tasks on your to-do list?

When we’re in a situation that feels bad, being able to find nuance and a sense of empowerment is so important.

090 - Resourced: How to Cultivate Nervous System Resilience05 nov. 202400:27:52

This week on Threshold Moments we’re doing something a little different.

Instead of releasing a heartfelt interview with a brilliant, soul-centered guest, I’m sharing my own story and offering an introduction to the life-changing work of healing your nervous system.

For the first time, I’m speaking about how a painful back injury led me on a powerful healing journey toward doing so. much. less.

Eventually that guided me toward mind-body-spirit integration through yoga. And I built a very successful business… that I eventually dismantled as I moved through the sleepless portal of becoming a mother.

Now I'm excited to share my story and offer my first nervous system healing program.

I hope you’ll listen to this episode and stick around for our full fall series about nervous system resilience. Then join me in Resourced, my four-month program that begins in January. I can’t wait to support you in 2025.
