We’ve been sold a lie that confidence means being comfortable all the time. It doesn’t. Life guarantees pain – avoiding it is what creates the suffering.
In this video, I talk about why doing the hard things, feeling your feelings, grieving what you thought life would be, and letting yourself be seen (even when it’s scary) is actually the ...

Blushing doesn’t disqualify you from confidence. In this video, I’m breaking down why confidence has nothing to do with the color of your face and everything to do with self-trust, nervous system safety, and the people you surround yourself with.

I’ll share how shifting your focus outward, building micro-bravery, and finding safe rela...

If you’ve ever flushed the second someone else starts turning red, you’re not crazy and you’re definitely not alone. This video breaks down sympathy blushing, why your nervous system mirrors other people, and how your mind can create physical reactions out of thin air.

If you get red, blotchy, or patchy skin the second you step into the sun or move from cold to warm air, you’re not imagining it. In this video, I break down why some of us react so fast to sunlight and temperature changes, what might actually be happening underneath the surface, and how to talk to your doctor if you want answers or relief.

Authority can be one of the biggest triggers for blushing, freezing, or shrinking. In this video, I’m breaking down why authority figures activate your fight-or-flight response, the beliefs underneath that reaction, and how exposure work can retrain your nervous system so you stop feeling powerless in those moments.

Have you ever noticed your face flushing, breaking out in hives, or turning red right before your period? It might not just be stress or anxiety — your hormones could be involved.

In this video, I’m sharing what I recently learned about Autoimmune Progesterone Dermatitis (APD) — a rare but fascinating condition where the body becomes sensitive to its own hormone, progesterone. We’ll explore what it is, why it...

Have you ever known you were made for more — to speak, to shine, to be seen — but still found yourself shrinking the moment attention turned your way because of blushing?

That tug-of-war inside you is called cognitive dissonance.

In this video, I’m sharing how cognitive dissonance showed up in my own journey with blushing, hiding, and silencing my voice, and why that internal discomfort was actually ...

Six years ago, I was thriving in my corporate career—but secretly battling erythrophobia, the fear of blushing. My husband knew. No one else did. The first time I ever told someone was on an airplane, mid-flight, when I finally opened up to a co-worker I trusted. I expected judgment. Instead, she shrugged and said she’d noticed it before but never thought anything about it. That moment changed everything.

You’ll learn:

*The science behind your body’s redness ...

It’s been six years since I started Blushing Phoenix — a channel that began with my desperate search for answers about chronic blushing and erythrophobia (the fear of blushing or turning red in front of others). 

Back in November 2019, I thought my blushing was hormonal. I experimented with birth control, learned about progesterone, tried propranolol, and spent years untangling how my body, emotions, and beli...

When my daughter was little, she watched a cartoon called Wonder Pets. In the Christmas episode, Ming-Ming breaks Tuck’s snow globe and says she’s sorry — but Tuck’s response stuck with me: “Sorry won’t fix it.”

That line hit deeper than I expected. Because while I believe in heartfelt apologies, sometimes sorry just doesn’t fix it. Words can soothe, but they can’t always repair what’s been broken.

I...

What if the version of you that’s been holding you back isn’t your “inner child” - but an older version that learned to survive a certain season?

For me, it wasn’t 8-year-old April… it was 35-year-old pandemic April.
She helped me cope, create safety, and find meaning during one of the hardest collective moments we’ve lived through. But now, she can’t come with me.

Sometimes the resistance we feel isn’t about the circumstances around us – it’s about the version of ourselves we’re still living from.

In this video, I share how I realized that parts of me – 8-year-old April, 35-year-old April – were still trying to protect me. Their intentions were good, but their rules and fears were actually keeping me stuck. By recognizing and lovingly releasing those old versions, I’m ...

Sometimes the dream feels heavy. You’re doing the work, but nobody’s clapping, nobody’s noticing. Or you haven't even started. You're plagued with ideas and vision and you feel the pressure of running out of time. 

Other times, the dream is real but the timing isn’t right -  and peace comes when you stop forcing it. 

This video is about knowing the difference. Do you keep going, even when n...

Are your friendships helping you grow — or holding you back?

In this video, I share what I call a “Friendventory” — an honest look at the people in your circle and whether they truly support the life you’re building. We’ll talk about:

Friends (and even family) who resist your growth because it challenges their role in your life

Energy vampires and the toll they take on your goals

Wh...

We’ve all been taught to shrink in the presence of authority - at the doctor’s office, at work, or around leaders - without even realizing it. 

In this video, I explore how conditioning shaped these patterns, why our nervous system defaults to compliance, and how we can rise above it. 

This isn’t about shaming the inner child who kept us safe - it’s about honoring that part of us and choosing a new w...
