Sharing your story doesn’t need to mean publishing. It can mean sharing with a therapist or a spouse or a supportive friend. But sharing our stories is almost as important as writing them. And if you do want to publish, in this episode I’ll share a few things to keep in mind.

Sharing your story doesn’t need to mean publishing. It can mean sharing with a therapist or a spouse or a supportive friend. But sharing our stories is almost as important as writing them. And if you do want to publish, in this episode I’ll share a few things to keep in mind.

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.

I used to think celebrating myself was self-centered. Self-aggrandizing. 

A waste of time at best. 

An overextension of the ego at worst. If someone else wanted to celebrate me, I would let it happen. But letting it in was a whole different story.

When it came to celebrating myself, it used to be a non-starter. 

But I changed my mind and I want to tell you about it.

Here’s Why You Should Celebrate Yourself

The dominant cultural narrative says that truth lies in data, rational thinking and logic. 

And so when we set out to heal, we think we need to alter the thoughts, reframe the story, and get the mind under control (and for a while this may even work). 

But then there comes a point where the body begins to disagree with the mind. 

The body doesn’t care about “right” answers.

The body doesn’t care how you’re “supposed” to feel. 

The body is unconvinced and unconcerned with positive affirmations. 

The body has one objective and one objective only: to express what is inside. What’s true. 

And a repressed body will eventually get louder. Much louder. 

Are you willing to listen to the truth of the body?

In today's episode, I cover my reflections on the Lindsay Clancy trial. 

Why has this tragic case captured the attention of women (and mothers) everywhere? 

What does this case have to show us about how we treat women / mothers in our culture? 

What do mothers and artists have in common? 

How can artists (and mothers) get the support they need and deserve so they can continue bringing life and beauty to this world? 

I explore all of this and more.
