THE PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT MORE THAN THE STATUS QUO

The Sovereign Mind

You want a life you love. And you just know there's got to be a better way.

But what we've been taught in school and in life has often fueled a scarcity mindset, living in constant stress and overwhelm, and staying safe and small.

But what if I told you it doesn't have to be that way? What if your dream life is closer than you think? Getting what you truly want is possible. I'll teach you scientific and evidence-based approaches on how to master your brilliant mind. I'll share my best strategies and tools to help you stay focused on what's most important to you so you can truly enjoy life. 

Throw in some roll-up-your-sleeves moxie and inspiration from a feisty red-headed coach, writer, and researcher . . . and you've got yourself weekly conversations that will leave you ready to take action and believing that a well-managed mind and bolder goals are possible.

“The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.” ~ Steve Jobs
