100 episodes later, and we’re still journeying through self-realization. In this episode, I take a deep dive into what it truly means to live authentically. We explore the different layers of self, the courage it takes to be honest with who you are, and the quiet beauty of seeing yourself not as a finished product, but as someone you're continually learning to understand. This episode is a soft landing, a gentle comforting call for reflection and growth. Thank you for being on this journey with me. See you in Season 3.

“The story you tell yourself is either your biggest limitation or your greatest breakthrough." - Tony Robbins
In today’s episode, we dive into the power of your subconscious mind and how the words you use about yourself, others, and life shape your reality. Are you constantly calling yourself lazy, always late, or hard to love? Do you label situations as impossible or relationships as difficult? It’s time to rewrite those narratives. Let’s explore how shifting your inner dialogue can create new outcomes, open doors, and pull you closer to the version of success you truly desire.

In this episode, we dive into the hard questions about love, growth, and identity. Is it normal to outgrow someone you love? We’ll talk about reconnecting with your values but most importantly, we’ll explore this question: What do you want to be remembered for?

This 10-minute reality check is here to reframe your beliefs about who you are and your place in the world. In today’s dose of tough love, I’m serving up the hard truths you might not want to hear, but absolutely need to. I talk about why the world owes you nothing, and how, in fact, you owe the world. Why there’s no need for competition when you’re walking in your lane because there’s enough room for everyone to thrive. And let’s not forget: success is attracted to those who are success-conscious. So ask yourself, are you still scared of hearing no? I hope not!

In this Q&A episode, I dive into your most pressing questions - navigating feelings of being left behind, dealing with comparison, and learning to trust your life’s timing. We’ll also talk about setting healthy boundaries in friendships, showing up fully (and healthily) in your relationships, trusting yourself more, and breaking free from overthinking and fear of failure. This is your reminder that you’re not alone, and you have what it takes to move forward confidently.

In this episode, I share 3 powerful gems you may need to hear: you’re exactly where you’re meant to be, your value is not up for negotiation so you don’t need to shrink to be accepted, and a reminder to give you the freedom to live boldly, be authentic, and pursue your dreams unapologetically.

You’ve heard it before, and that’s exactly the problem. Sometimes, life doesn’t give us new messages, it repeats the same ones until we finally listen. In this episode, we’re digging into the uncomfortable truth: the reason you’re still stuck might not be confusion. It might be avoidance. You think you’re paying attention, but are you really listening? If you keep finding yourself in the same place, facing the same lesson over and over again, this one’s for you.

How do you define what’s truly for you? What does “good” or “healthy” actually mean in your life? And who sets the standard for what you accept, pursue, or allow? In this episode, I invite you to pause and reflect: Are you living by your own definition of what’s good for you or by someone else’s? This is your reminder to reclaim your standard and start living with intention.

In this episode, I talk about how to discern whether something is truly for you or not. Just because it’s hard doesn’t mean you should give up — but not every difficult path is yours to take. I share practical ways to gain clarity, trust your inner wisdom, and how sometimes, the answer only comes after you start.

You’re not indecisive, you’re just afraid. In this episode, I talk about why action beats overthinking, and how failure is just feedback — but only if you do something with it. You’ll hear why waiting for certainty slows you down, and how making quick, aligned decisions helps you bounce back faster and grow stronger. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, delaying a move, or overthinking your next step, this one’s for you.

This episode is a really special one for me, not just because it’s a prelude to the "From Dreaming to Doing" webinar happening on May 12th, but because I’m joined by someone who has shaped my life in more ways than I can count.
Today, I sit down with my dad, Engr. Barry Esimone, to talk about his entrepreneurial journey - from having nothing, to dreaming boldly, to living out that dream with excellence. He shares timeless wisdom on vision, grit, and doing the work, and I promise you… this is one episode you would thoroughly enjoy.

Not everyone will like you, and that’s okay. This episode is your reminder that you don’t have to shrink, shift, or seek approval to feel valid. Some decisions only need your clarity. We’re talking self-trust, quiet confidence, and celebrating wins, yours and others’, with intention. Take what you need.

The future isn’t scary, it is unwritten. In this episode, we explore the powerful relationship between fear and faith—two sides of the same coin. You’ll learn why fear is often just a thought about a future that hasn’t happened, and how to intentionally choose faith instead. It’s time to flip the coin, build your faith muscle, and rewrite the soundtrack in your head.

How far is too far? In this episode, we dive into the difference between your stretch zone - where growth happens, and your stress zone - where burnout begins. Pushing yourself is essential, but knowing when you’ve crossed the line into overwhelm is just as important. We’ll explore how to challenge yourself without overextending, how to expand your capacity for growth, and practical strategies to avoid burnout while still leveling up in life.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of giving ourselves and others grace. Everyone is doing the best they can with the resources they have available at the moment. Instead of living in regret, this is your reminder to show yourself compassion and focus on doing better with the new knowledge you now have. Grace is the bridge between where we were and where we're headed.

A special birthday episode where I sit down with you to reflect on what it truly means to move with intention and celebrate ourselves unapologetically. This year, we’re doing things differently! I dive into the power of making things personal, betting on yourself, and not waiting for the ‘perfect’ moment. We’re embracing change, pivoting when needed, and stepping fully into our evolution. Whether you're facing rejection, uncertainty, or just ready to step into something new, this is your sign to take the leap and own your power.

This episode challenges you to reclaim control over your choices. Your why is your driving force, the reason behind your goals. But when you focus on proving things to others, you give them the power over your decisions. This is your reminder to live for you. To chase your goals because they matter to you, not to prove anyone wrong.
