We all hope our story has a happy ending. So what do we do when our story ends in tragedy? How do you write a hopeful story when you don’t get the outcome you were expecting? In this episode, I share with you a difficult set of circumstances I’ve been navigating, and how I have made peace with an “ending” I didn’t choose.

We all hope our story has a happy ending. So what do we do when our story ends in tragedy? How do you write a hopeful story when you don’t get the outcome you were expecting? In this episode, I share with you a difficult set of circumstances I’ve been navigating, and how I have made peace with an “ending” I didn’t choose.

We are all creating the stories of our lives each day. Sometimes it’s hard to believe in a happy ending when were in the middle of chaos – or to understand the transformation we are undergoing when we're being tested over and over again – but I believe we are all here to learn, grow, and discover more of who we are in this life and I want to help you do exactly that. Let’s uncover the meaning of our stories together. The stories we tell ourselves about our life matter – and only we have the power to edit, upgrade or re-write them altogether. Only we have the power to become the hero we want to be. Only we can change the narrative of the story we’re telling ourselves. If we’re sick of being the “girl who got dumped” or the “guy who lost his job” or the “villlan,” the “helper”, etc — what choice do we have? We get creative and we write a new story. As a bestselling author, I’ve learned the principals that make stories tick and I've taken many of my life stories and put them to paper. What I have learned is that stories have a lot to teach us about what matters in life; and that one of the most powerful things you can do to heal is to face your story head-on. To co-create the ending. To uncover the thread that holds the whole thing together. To become the hero you would want to see on the screen. I’ve taught many others how to do this and I want to share these insights with you, too. Everyone wants to make meaning of their story (me included) and it’s never too late. You can become a completely new person with a whole new story in just a few short years. So let’s go on this journey together. Come with me as we explore how to become our authentic selves and live our true stories. We’ll explore personal growth, self-help, psychology, spirituality, and so much more. It’s never too late to rewrite your story.

When Your Story Ends In Tragedy…

What if the one thing you’re avoiding is the single thing that could get you unstuck? 

In this episode, I admit that I’ve been feeling creatively stuck lately and wondering if I’ll ever get out of this rut.

The truth is I’ve been feeling frustrated, flat and under-inspired. 

I haven’t been writing much of anything. 

I was starting to wonder (after 6 years of struggling) if I was going to be behind this block forever. That’s when the insight for today’s episode came to me. 

Maybe the way out is through the one thing you least want to do. 

Which isn’t about doing something as much as it is about allowing what is to be what is.

Maybe your pain is a portal.

If you didn’t listen to my episode a few weeks ago about how the worst people in the world sometimes have the most confidence—this week I’m revisiting the topic. 

This time, I’m coming in hot with some real-world examples of how my four and five year old kids taught me about confidence. 

While watching my preschoolers have the quintessential childhood experience of learning to ride a two-wheeled bike, I simultaneously learned about human nature, my own nature, and was reminded where confidence actually comes from.

If you struggle with confidence sometimes like I do, first of all—you’re normal. Second of all, I hope you’ll enjoy these reflections on why confidence matters and what we can do to cultivate confidence everyday.

You are not a problem to solve. 

Your life is not a problem to solve. 

Your body is not a problem to solve. 

It’s easy to lose track of that. 

It’s easy to get stuck in a loop of endless problem-solving, thinking that if you can just think harder, work harder, be smarter, or chase down the right information, you might finally feel at peace in your own life. 

But has that ever worked for you? 

What if your life is speaking to you, right here, right now? 

The question is: are you listening? Are you really hearing what your life is trying to say?
