Ep. #267: Breaking Free from Robot Mode

Mar 12, 2025

Ever feel like you're just going through the motions—wake up, get things done, repeat—without really feeling present in your own life? That’s what I call Robot Mode, and trust me, you’re not alone.

In this episode, we’re talking about why we slip into auto-pilot (spoiler: your nervous system is doing its job, but maybe a little too well). We’ll break down the fight, flight, or freeze response and explore simple, doable ways to regulate your nervous system so you can feel more in control and alive in your daily life.

And if you’re ready for a deeper dive, join me for April’s Year of You workshop at bflycoaching.com, where we’ll unpack even more powerful tools to help you reconnect with yourself.

Let’s break free from Robot Mode—together.

Ep. #266: Emotions Are Messengers: How to Listen and Process Them

Mar 05, 2025

Emotions aren’t just random waves of chaos trying to ruin your day—they’re messengers, trying to tell you something important. But are you actually listening? In this episode, we’re diving into the truth about emotions, why we feel them so intensely, and how to stop drowning in what I call "puddle emotions." These are the feelings that keep us stuck, spiraling, or overwhelmed—like guilt, fear, or self-doubt—when we don’t know how to process them.

I’ll walk you through how to recognize these emotional messengers, decode what they’re trying to tell you, and most importantly, take your power back. Because you are not your emotions—you are the one experiencing them. And when you learn how to work with them instead of against them, that’s where true emotional freedom begins.

Tune in for a real, relatable conversation on how to stop letting emotions control you and start using them as the powerful guides they’re meant to be.

Feb 26, 2025

Ep. #264: Feeling Burnout?

Feb 19, 2025

Ever feel like you're running on empty, but life keeps demanding more? Burnout is real, and it doesn’t just happen from overworking—it sneaks in when we ignore our own needs, push past our limits, and forget to refill our own cup.

I’m breaking down the signs of burnout, why it happens, and the best ways to prevent it before you hit a wall. From setting boundaries to prioritizing rest without guilt, I’ll share practical tips to help you recharge and stay aligned with what truly matters. Because thriving isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what fuels you.

Ep. #263: How to Take it to the Next Level

Feb 12, 2025

Life coaching isn’t about someone telling you what to do—it’s about having a trusted guide who helps you uncover your own answers, break through mental roadblocks, and step into the life you truly want. Think of it like having a personal strategist for your growth, someone who sees your potential even when you don’t, and gives you the tools to tap into your own power.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just need clarity on your next steps, a coach helps you navigate life’s challenges with confidence, purpose, and direction. It’s about shifting from merely surviving to truly thriving—living intentionally instead of just going through the motions.

And the best part? You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Free consultations are available with any of our BFLY Coaches at bflycoaching.com/coaching. Because the life you want isn’t as far away as it seems—you just need the right support to get there.

Ep. #262: How Confirmation Bias is Derailing Your Best Life

Feb 05, 2025

Your brain is wired to seek out evidence that confirms what you already believe, whether it’s “I’m not good enough,” “Success isn’t for me,” or “Mondays are the worst.” And guess what? It’ll find proof everywhere. But here’s the kicker—just because you believe it doesn’t mean it’s true.

This week on Creating Her Best Life Now, we’re diving deep into how this sneaky mental habit could be holding you back—and, more importantly, how to break free from it.

Ep. #261: Indifferency and Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again

Jan 29, 2025

Ever feel like you're living the same day over and over again? Like you're stuck in some weird, soul-sucking loop of “meh” and “whatever”? Yeah, we’ve all been there. Indifference and complacency sneak in like uninvited houseguests, making themselves comfortable while you’re too exhausted to kick them out.

In this episode, we’re getting real about that numbing autopilot mode—why we fall into it, how it tricks us into thinking we’re “fine,” and, most importantly, how to break the cycle. Because let’s be honest, “fine” is just a polite way of saying “I’ve settled.”

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to shake things up, this is it. It’s time to stop pressing repeat on a life you don’t love and start making moves toward something better. Let’s get into it!

Ep. #260 - How to Create Evidence to Change Your Thinking

Jan 23, 2025

You know those sneaky little thoughts that tell you,

“You’re not good enough,”

“You’ll never figure it out,” or “Who do you think you are?”

Yeah, we’re calling those out today.

In this episode, we’re breaking down how to stop letting those limiting beliefs run the show. It’s not about magically thinking positive—it’s about proving to yourself that those thoughts are flat-out wrong. We’ll talk about simple ways to create real, everyday evidence that can help you shift your mindset and start believing something new about yourself.

Because let’s be honest—your brain loves to cling to old stories, even when they don’t serve you anymore. But you’ve got the power to rewrite them. So grab your coffee (or wine—we don’t judge), settle in, and let’s get real about flipping the script in your head.

This is your sign to start believing in the BOSS you really are.

Ep. #258: Creating Your Best Life​

Jan 08, 2025

In this episode, I’m diving into what it really means to begin. Spoiler alert: it’s not about having everything perfectly planned or knowing exactly where you’re going. It’s about taking the next step, even when the path feels unclear.

We’ll talk about the power of rewriting your story—letting go of the narratives that no longer serve you and replacing them with ones that align with the life you truly want to create. I’ll also share how your thoughts shape your beliefs and why those beliefs dictate how you show up, what actions you take, and, yes, what dreams you might be holding yourself back from.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’re waiting for the “perfect moment,” this episode is your nudge to start right where you are. Let’s get moving—because your best life isn’t waiting for you to figure it all out; it’s waiting for you to take the first step.
