Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Hi Reader, This summer I spent 10 days in Mexico City with Dr. Glenn and Phyllis. We spoke at conferences, met with business leaders, and worked with one of our certified coaches—Jonathan Hernandez. Jonathan was also our translator. And let me tell you… WHOA. I was already managing nerves around presenting in another country, but Jonathan’s brain was doing double the work—listening, translating, delivering—in real time. I left in awe of...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Hi Reader, Wes used to say he wasn’t emotional. Not in an avoidant way- he genuinely didn’t think emotions played a role in how he showed up.

He’s chasing joy.Like- real, soul-filling, fully alive kind of joy. In this week’s podcast episode, Wes and I...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Hi Reader, I know. It’s been a minute. Four weeks since I’ve sent a newsletter—and I’ve missed you. Honestly? I’ve had a little writer’s block. Not because I didn’t have anything to say (ohhh, there’s so much), but because I didn’t know how to jump back in. How do you sum up a summer like this? But here’s what I’ve learned: you don’t have to say everything perfectly. You just have to show up. So… hi. I’m here. And I want to catch you up...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Reader, I’ve spent so much of my life in my head.Thinking through everything.Strategizing. Rationalizing.Even trying to logic my way through pain. But over the past few years, I’ve realized something profound: My body always knew first. Before I had words, before I could identify the emotion- my body was already sending the signal. I can even look back to moments where I had a gut instinct and I didn't listen. Whew- then I was so mad at...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Reader, I’ve spent a lot of my life waiting. Waiting to feel ready.Waiting to know for sure.Waiting until I had every answer, every resource, every “green light.” But the truth? Clarity never came from waiting. It came from doing.

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Reader, I’ve spent so much of my life ignoring my body. Pushing past the fatigue. Dismissing the tension. Treating it like a machine that just needed to keep going. I never thought of my body as something to listen to- let alone honor or thank. It was just… there. Dragged along for the ride. But one thing Bridgett Blood shares in this week’s episode has stuck with me:“My body knows before my brain does.” She talks about how she’s learned...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Reader, I found it an hour before going on stage.A lump. I was about to speak at a dream event, with another two full days of back-to-back events ahead of me, including two presentations.And I made the split-second decision…Just ignore it. There was nothing I could do about it in that moment, right? But the fear sat heavy in my chest like a weight.And I told no one. (Sorry, Mom! You found out this way 🙈) The first day, I was able to talk...

Your Connection Guide This Week in the Connection Codes Reader, This week’s podcast is a BIG one. Because I got to sit down with someone I’ve admired for years—Vanessa Marin, licensed sex therapist, New York Times bestselling author, and co-host of the hit podcast Pillow Talks. I have admired her boldness in sharing on a topic that has long been considered "taboo." She is busting the box wide open and leaves no topic off limits. She and her husband, Xander, have been showing up on Instagram...
