The Growth Lounge

In Episode 1/Part 2 of my conversation with Harmony, we move into one of the most tender and powerful parts of her healing journey.

Harmony shares openly about her breast explant surgery and how removing her implants brought relief to many of the chronic health issues she had been living with for years. Symptoms that were once confusing, exhausting, and misunderstood finally began to make sense.

We talk about:
• The health issues...

I couldn’t imagine a more meaningful way to launch the Women & Wellness Series for 2026 than by sitting down with Harmony.

Harmony was my very first podcast guest when I launched The Growth Lounge last year, and bringing her back for this two-part conversation feels both full circle and deeply intentional.

In Part 1 of this 2 part episode with Harmony, she opens up about the nuances of each year. How sobriety evolves, what change...

This year stretched me, shaped me, and ultimately changed me.

In this episode, I’m getting real about what it actually looked like to take my power back. Not through a new planner or another quick fix, but by getting radically honest, reflecting deeply, and rebuilding trust with myself and with God.

When my dad passed three years ago, I did what so many of us do when we don’t know what to do with pain... I stayed busy. I jumped into ...

When safety keeps you stuck, fear becomes the wall between you and your next level. In this episode, Jessica Phillips breaks down how your amygdala tricks you into believing comfort equals safety and how that false protection can hold you back from growth. She shares real stories from women at the Rooted and Rising Retreat who faced resistance, fear, and self-doubt, and what happens when you choose to walk through fear instead of a...

The Becoming Series: Coming Home to the Woman God Created You to Be

There’s a sacred messiness in the middle, that space between who you were and who you’re becoming. It’s uncomfortable, uncertain, and if we’re honest… sometimes it just feels funky.

This week inside The Growth Lounge, we’re getting practical. Because unbecoming isn’t just spiritual - it’s somatic. It’s emotional. It’s physical. And the way we move through it matters.

...

There comes a moment in every woman’s life when she whispers the words, " I can't carry this any more."

If you’ve been there, or maybe you’re sitting in that space right now, this episode is for you.

This is where my own 180 began. The day I realized that trying harder wasn’t healing me…it was hiding me.

We talk a lot about growth and purpose, but what we often skip over is the part where we have to clear the clutter. The emotional, ...

In Part 2 of my conversation with luxury stylist and transformational guide Jessica Papineau, we go beyond the wardrobe and dive into the practices, mindset shifts, and bold choices that lead to lasting transformation.

Jessica shares how everything from cold plunging to meditation and visualization has shaped her journey—and how those tools can help you shed what no longer serves you. We talk about how clothing holds frequency, why ...

In this powerful 2-part series, I sit down with the incredible Jessica Papineau, visionary founder of CSJ Styling, to uncover the story behind her mission of helping women rise into the most confident version of themselves.

From her earliest days, fashion wasn’t just clothing,it was her lifeline. Growing up in difficult conditions, style became a way for Jessica to express hope, resilience, and possibility. That thread carried her i...

Comfort feels safe, but it’s quietly dividing us. When we refuse to get uncomfortable, when we won’t sit down across from one another and have honest conversations, we lose the chance to really hear, understand, and grow together. Instead, we cling to the sound bites, highlight reels, and media clips that keep us in our corners.

In this episode, I dive into why the solution isn’t “out there” in the noise...it’s within us. It’s in ch...

There comes a moment when the noise quiets down. The house feels different, the roles you’ve held for years start to shift, and you find yourself looking in the mirror wondering… Who am I now?

In today’s episode, I’m opening up about that tender season of life where the busyness fades and what’s left is an awareness of yourself — sometimes for the first time in decades. It can feel lonely. It can feel strange. And yet, this is often...

I had a pleasure of sitting down with Sarah Fui, Sarah is a licensed trauma therapist transitioned to life and business coach.

Thirty years… wow. What a ride it’s been! In today’s special episode, Chad and I sat down to look back on three decades of love, growth, and everything in between. From those nervous first dates to walking down the aisle, from the silly little pet peeves to our favorite things about each other—we covered it all.

And because we wanted to celebrate by giving you something too, we each wrote do...

Today on The Growth Lounge, I’m joined by the incredible Gina Nichols — certified life coach, dynamic speaker, and founder of Divorce: Redefined.

After walking through the heartbreak of four divorces, raising a blended family (including four kids under five and an unexpected set of twins), and even reaching a point where she didn’t want to go on… Gina made a powerful choice: her story would not end in brokenness.

Instead, she turned ...

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 6 of The Growth Lounge!

Today we’re wrapping up the L.I.G.H.T. Method — the framework that’s been guiding us through healing, clarity, and coming home to who we truly are.

This final step? It’s the one so many of us resist.

It’s vulnerable.

And it’s everything.

T is for Take Your Seat.

Because after you’ve pulled the lid off, immersed in the middle, gotten quiet, and started to harness g...
