Episode #37: 10 Lessons for a Happier and more Successful Life I Wish I’d Learned Sooner

About the Episode:

Every year around my birthday, I pause to reflect. Not to judge. But to listen to what life has actually taught me.

In this episode, I share the 10 lessons that shaped me most this year. Lessons drawn from leadership, motherhood, entrepreneurship, nervous system work, intuition, and reconnecting with my ancestry.

Inside, I explore:

• Why purpose doesn’t need to be big, public, or impressive
• How repeated life patterns are invitations, not punishments
• What nervous system regulation has taught me about leadership and expansion
• Why receiving is just as important as giving
• How to walk toward growth even when fear is loud

These are not abstract ideas or feel-good quotes.
They are lived truths that changed how I lead, how I serve, and how I live.

My hope is that one or two of these lessons land exactly where you need them.
And that they support you in creating a more grounded, aligned, and fulfilling year ahead.

Let’s dive in.
