A Big Announcement!

You don't want to miss this...

Hi Friend,

I’m going to cut right to the chase…

I have launched a new podcast, Successful and Stuck!

This show is for the people who have achieved quite a bit of success and look like you have it all together on the outside but don’t feel that way on the inside. Perhaps you feel this way despite going to therapy, reading every self-help book you can get your hands on, and listening to all of the personal development podcasts.

This is the show I needed 10+ years ago when I was at the height of a career that I loved, regularly doing Ironman triathlons, serving on nonprofit boards, and enjoying life… except for the fact that there were days when I couldn’t get off the couch due to crippling anxiety. I would often have trouble falling asleep, tossing and turning thinking about work. I’d get debilitating migraines that nobody could explain. I couldn’t hold down a relationship to save my life, and all of this was happening while I was going to therapy twice a week.

I was putting in the effort and doing everything “right,” so why the hell was all of this happening?

It would be many years before I got to the bottom of it, and I had no idea that all of the answers were following me everywhere I went. I just didn’t know how to decode them.

The answers were always there, because they were stored in my nervous system.

You see, the anxiety, the sleeplessness, the migraines, the relationship problems, all of it was a result of my nervous system being deeply dysregulated from growing up with an alcoholic parent, constant conflict in my home, and sexual abuse from a neighbor. No amount of talking about it was ever going to fix it.

The best part is that I have since learned that nothing needed to be fixed. My nervous system was functioning perfectly in order to keep me safe (so is yours). However, it had been shaped in ways that were keeping me stuck and unable to live the bigger, bolder life I knew deep down was possible for me.

What I needed in order to listen to my system and decode it was simply to learn the language of “somatic.” Finding my first somatic practitioner changed everything, including my career. I went on to get trauma-trained in Somatic Experiencing and now I regularly guide high achieving leaders and entrepreneurs in balancing professional success and personal wellbeing.

That’s what Successful and Stuck is all about, bringing you the wisdom, stories, tools, and expertise that will help you navigate the deeper signals your nervous system is sending you so that you can live that bigger, bolder life that you desire.
