  • Childfree by Circumstance - Grief, Healing, and Finding Joy in Plan B with Healing Roots Together
    Dec 22 2025

    What does it really mean to be childfree by circumstance - and how do you grieve the life you thought you would have while still creating one that feels meaningful and joyful?

    In this episode, I’m joined by Adriana Rodriguez-Baptiste and Caroline Bloss from Healing Roots Together, a support community for women who are childfree by circumstance and navigating life after infertility, pregnancy loss, or unexpected childlessness.

    We talk openly about the grief that doesn’t have a timeline, the identity shifts that come with letting go of Plan A, and how to find purpose, connection, and joy in a life that looks different than expected. Adriana and Caroline share how mindfulness, community support, and intentional healing practices can help women move from survival mode to actually thriving.

    If you are childfree by circumstance, struggling with unresolved grief, or trying to figure out who you are after infertility, this conversation will help you feel less alone and more grounded in what comes next.

    Topics we cover:

    1. What it means to be childfree by circumstance
    2. Grieving the loss of motherhood and Plan A
    3. Finding joy and meaning in Plan B
    4. Mindfulness tools to support healing after infertility
    5. Why community and support groups matter
    6. How Healing Roots Together helps women thrive after loss

    This episode is for women who want to honor their grief without letting it define their future.

  • Relationship Patterns, Self Confidence, and the Power of Detachment with Sabrina Bendory
    Dec 8 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with relationship expert and writer Sabrina Bendory for a grounded conversation about self worth, self confidence, dating patterns, mindset shifts and the power of detachment. We explore why detachment is not about caring less, but about reconnecting with yourself so you can show up aligned, clear, and secure in every type of relationship.

    Sabrina shares the psychology behind repeated patterns, why so many women chase the wrong partners, and how mindset work helps you rebuild your foundation from the inside out. We talk about the mindset shifts needed to choose yourself in any context, whether you’re dating, healing, or redefining what you will and will not accept in your life.

    We also speak directly to women who are in a bad relationship but scared to leave or starting over, offering practical guidance and supportive reframes that help you find clarity, inner grounding, and the courage to take the next step when you’re ready.

    If you’ve been stuck in cycles, struggling with your self worth, or afraid to walk away from something that no longer feels aligned, this episode will help you step into a more empowered, grounded version of yourself and create the love and life you truly deserve.
