  • 127. Choices, Dropping the Ball & Never Enough Hours
    Dec 2 2025

    In this week’s Coffee Chat, I’m talking about something every parent, every woman, every human feels — that pressure of trying to hold all the balls, make all the choices, and somehow keep up as we head into Christmas.

    I share a moment from just this week: standing in my kitchen at 9pm, exhausted after a full day of work and training, trying to decide between dishes, a shower, or doing a puzzle with my 6-year-old… and what happened when I finally walked back out and found him fast asleep. And then what my oldest son did next 🥹

    This episode is about the real version of dropping the ball — not the Instagram version — but the human one. The version that shows love in unexpected places, the version that reminds us we can’t do everything, and the version that frees us from the myth of “balance.”

    If you’re feeling stretched thin, guilty, overwhelmed, or like there are never enough hours in the day… this one’s for you. You are not failing. You’re just in a full season, and you’re doing better than you think.

    Grab your coffee, take a breath, and join me for a gentle reminder that the balls you’re dropping aren’t the ones that matter most 🤍

  • 126. The Comparison Season
    Nov 25 2025

    In this Coffee Chat, I’m diving into something that comes up every year around this time: comparison. From body image to Christmas plans to what everyone else’s family, life, or business seems to be doing — it can feel like we’re constantly measuring ourselves against other people’s highlight reels.

    I share why comparison actually spikes during this season (spoiler: it’s biology, not a personal flaw), how stress and social media amplify it, and even how I’ve felt it myself recently comparing my own food brand to others.

    This episode is a gentle, honest reminder that comparison isn’t a verdict — it’s a signal. And when it shows up, there’s a kinder, more grounded way to respond.

    Grab your coffee and settle in with me for a little perspective reset.

  • 125. The Gluten-Free Myth We Need to Stop Believing
    Nov 18 2025

    In this quick Coffee Chat, I’m breaking down one of the biggest nutrition myths I still hear all the time: that “gluten-free means healthy.”

    I also share more of my own personal gluten journey where the DJK products really took flight before I even knew it plus what's next for DJK HQ - it's a big week here!

    Grab your coffee, take a breath, and tune in for a tiny reset with me 🤎
