What lights you up - and what have you stopped making space for?

For years as a journalist, I had a front-row seat to extraordinary lives, lifting the lid on what made other people shine. Making people feel seen comes naturally to me. Seeing myself? Not so much.

When life knocked the stuffing out of me, survival mode showed up as me disappearing. My world got very small, and so did I. But my story isn't over. I am done just existing.

The Nerve of You is me coming out of hiding and having the nerve to find my voice at 56. It’s a playful experiment. It could be messy, it could be raw, it could be exactly the tonic you need and it’s very likely to be random as the real me returns and the jitters wear off. As long as I’m enjoying the process and feeling alive, that’s hitting the jackpot.

Perfectionism isn't invited, but you are. Join me in making space for what lights you up and makes you feel fully alive.

On this show, we’re exploring:

\n
Curiosity over Perfection: Learning to play, experiment, and come out of hiding
\n
\n
Identity: Owning the truth that there’s nothing wrong with you (except your thinking that there is)
\n
\n
Nervous System Supports: Creative ways to build new responses and cultivate an inner ease as you become visible
\n
\n
The Magic of Fascia Release: Melting holding patterns in the body to create physical, mental, and emotional space
\n
\n
Plant-Fueled Living: Delicious plant-based meals, treats made with natural sugars and DIY skincare your body loves
\n

So, if you’re ready to set your Supporting Role Oscar down and make space for you and all your fabulous idiosyncrasies, you’re in the right place.
