In this episode, I chat with Nicole Middendorf, wealth advisor and certified divorced financial analyst, CEO of Prosperwell Financial in Minnetonka Minnesota, public speaker, coach, author of five books, mother of two children, and domestic abuse survivor.

Nicole and I share discussions on the impact of doing scary things, navigating life changing events, and how absolutely amazing solo travel for women can be.

Nicole talks about her "Live It List" and how it has shaped her philosophy on life and her ability to go from simply surviving life to thriving. "Every time you do something new, big or small, it gives you more resilience, more confidence." Nicole also reminds us that it is okay to want - and live the life you desire.

In this episode, I reflect on the constant cycles of change that life brings and how those shifts have been showing up in my own world lately. Between moving, parenting, building a new life, and saying goodbye to the old one, I’ve been riding the waves of transition—sometimes feeling grounded, and sometimes completely overwhelmed.

One thing I’ve learned is how powerful the quiet moments are. They’re often the only time emotions we’ve tucked away finally surface—grief, fear, uncertainty—but also clarity, creativity, and hope. A short drive or a slow walk in the park can suddenly become the space where big realizations happen. That’s where healing begins. That’s where new visions start to take shape.

This episode is about letting yourself feel it all—honoring the grief that comes with change, but also welcoming the optimism of new beginnings. It’s about being present, building a life of intention, and demonstrating what resilience really looks like. Because healing doesn’t happen in the chaos. It happens in the quiet.

The conversation delves into the significance of joy, the role of fear in personal growth, and the necessity of self-reflection and forgiveness in the healing process.
