In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something I wrestle with regularly — impatience and the need to control outcomes.

When I decide I want something, I want it done immediately. And when progress feels slow, I feel anxious, behind, and frustrated. I share how I realized that my impatience is often anxiety in disguise — especially after seasons of life that felt out of control.

This year, I chose the word “steady” as my theme. Not slow. Not passive. But consistent without panicking.

In this episode, I share:
• Why control can feel like safety
• How productivity can become fear in motion
• The burnout that comes from forcing timelines
• What it really means to “release the stopwatch”

If you’ve been feeling behind or trying to rush your progress, this conversation is for you.

We’re not late. We’re not behind.
We’re exactly where we need to be.

Maybe we can trust that together.

In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something I know many of us struggle with — second guessing ourselves after a decision has already been made.

I share personal stories about decisions that carried enormous emotional weight in my life — from financial choices in my marriage, to putting my beloved dog Yogi to sleep, to a painful decision involving my late husband that I questioned for a long time afterward.

Second guessing doesn’t mean we’re weak or bad at making decisions. Often, it’s a learned response — especially for women who have carried emotional responsibility for others. We anticipate reactions. We try to prevent fallout. We crave certainty.

If you’ve been replaying a decision in your mind lately, this conversation is for you.

Remember — you made the best decision you could with the information you had at the time.

Maybe you can trust yourself more than you think.

Have you ever felt stuck — not at rock bottom, not falling apart — just waiting?

In this episode, I talk about why so many of us stay stuck even when we want change. I share a personal story about a time in my life when I knew I wanted something different, but had no clarity, no direction, and no idea what my next step should be.

I waited for the right time.
I waited for certainty.
I waited for someone to tell me what to do.

What I eventually learned is this: clarity doesn’t come first — movement does.

In this episode, I sit down with Laurie James — author, somatic practitioner, and host of the Confessions of a Free Bird podcast — for an honest conversation about divorce, caregiving, trauma, and what happens when the body carries what the mind tries to ignore.

Laurie shares the moment she knew she had to leave her marriage, why it took more than one attempt, and how years of stress, responsibility, and unprocessed trauma eventually showed up as serious physical illness. We talk about how trauma lives in the nervous system, why “little” traumas matter, and how somatic work helps the body complete what it never got to finish.

We also explore rest, guilt, freedom later in life, dating after divorce, and what healing can look like when you stop forcing yourself to push through.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, exhausted by holding everything together, or confused by reactions you can’t explain — this conversation is for you.

For a long time, I believed something outside of me needed to change before my life could change.

More money. Better timing. Less stress. Someone else stepping up.
I didn’t realize that belief was keeping me stuck.

In this episode, I talk about the slow, quiet realization that nothing was going to change unless I changed — not through action at first, but through awareness. Awareness of my thoughts. My stories. The things I was avoiding. And the responsibility I was afraid to take.

I share a deeply personal story about money, shame, and the moment I stopped waiting for a miracle and started facing the truth — even without a plan.

This conversation isn’t about fixing your life or taking massive action.
It’s about noticing.
Getting honest.
And realizing you have more power than you think.

The moment you realize nothing will change unless you change isn’t the moment everything shifts - but it is the moment anything becomes possible.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, this episode is for you.

I talk about why so many of us wait for clarity before taking action — and how that belief keeps us frozen. I share what finally helped me move forward when I didn’t know what I wanted, where I was going, or how to get there.

In this episode, I break it down simply:
Take responsibility for one piece of your life.
Question the thoughts that keep telling you it’s too late or too hard.
And take one small action — just one.

You don’t need a plan. You don’t need certainty. You don’t need to change everything.
You just need to begin.

If you’ve been waiting for the “right time,” I hope this conversation helps you realize that the power to start has been yours all along.

Not maybe you can.
Yes, you can. ✨

For a long time, I believed my life was already decided.

I thought my age, my responsibilities, and my circumstances meant this was just the way things were — and there was nothing I could do about it. I wasn’t miserable, but I was exhausted, burnt out, and quietly resigned.

In this episode, I share the moment that changed everything for me — not overnight, but at the core. As I approached 50, a simple question forced me to take an honest look at the story I was telling myself and the belief that it was “too late.”

We talk about caregiving, comparison, burnout, belief, and why change doesn’t start with a plan — it starts with the decision to question the story you’ve been living in.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or convinced that it’s too late for you, I want you to hear this:

The day I realized I could change my life wasn’t the day everything changed.
But it was the day anything became possible.

And the same can be true for you.

This episode was recorded on Christmas morning — a moment I didn’t plan, but one that felt necessary.

As the year comes to a close, I found myself reflecting not on productivity or accomplishments, but on something much deeper: personal growth. The kind you don’t notice while you’re in it.

After finishing a journal, I decided to read the very first entry — and what I found stopped me in my tracks. It reminded me how much time I used to spend worrying, settling, and believing every thought I had. And it showed me how far I’ve come without even realizing it.

In this episode, I talk about grief, reflection, awareness, and why growth often stays invisible until we pause long enough to look back. If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t “do enough” this year, this conversation is for you.

Maybe the most important thing isn’t what comes next —
but noticing how far you’ve already come.
