The French Braid Effect – Braiding the Past into Your Present

EPISODE 56:
Ever notice how a simple ritual can be something that transports you?  To another time, another version of yourself, or even a different way of thinking? In this episode, we explore The French Braid Effect— which I created from the small, grounding habit I do each night. I will expand on the idea that we can all find that ‘something’ that reconnects us to comfort, care, and growth. I’ll share how this nightly ritual reminds me of being nurtured as a child and how we can all find simple, meaningful practices that bring us back to a place of openness, kindness, and self-discovery. Tune in to uncover the power of everyday moments in shaping who we are and who we’re becoming.

Of course I go even deeper, but you have to jump into the episode for that part! 😉

Stuck on Repeat: The Hidden Messages in Music

EPISODE 55:
When the Universe or higher power sends a song, I listen…sometimes on repeat. Do you ever have an earworm just playing over and over in your head and you don’t know why? In this episode I not only tap into the power of music in my life, but also how I find meaning and confirmation within it.

We know our words are powerful, so when it’s in music form and highly vibrational…it’s even more so. Are you extracting the nods of confirmation from the world around you? What about taking time to hear a powerful message the music you are listening to is giving?

I invite you to listen and explore how you use music in your every day life to move you and soothe you. Rock on my friends!

Called to More: Why I Believe in You (and Why You Should Too)

EPISODE 54:
What if the only thing standing between you and the life you feel called to… is simply starting? In this episode, I dive into what it really means to show up—even when the path isn’t clear, the timing isn’t perfect, and self-doubt is loud. I share parts of my own journey of stepping into something bigger before I fully understood where it was leading, and how that trust has shaped everything.

This episode is a loving push and a powerful reminder: I don’t just believe you’re capable of something bold—I know you are. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, a dream, or a version of yourself that’s ready to come alive, this one’s for you. Let’s get into the magic of beginning… right where you are.

Unmute Yourself: Advocating for the Life You Deserve

EPISODE 53:
That still small voice sometimes turns into a scream when we feel we are living in a supportive role in our lives (or even just a piece of it) instead of the star. This can rip our self esteem right down the drain, create unnecessary stress, and ultimately lead us down paths we never would want to go down if we were being honest with ourselves. In this episode of Taking Flight, I share an candid story about having to stand in my own voice through a troubled time. Come remind yourself of just how important it is to tap into your views, thoughts, and beliefs, and RAISE THAT VOICE HIGH! What are you selling yourself short in within your life or business? I promise you, it’s time for that to stop and this episode is sure to remind you of who the heck you are!

Toxic Who? Let’s Talk True Positivity

EPISODE 52:
Digging into the reality of what having a positive mindset is actually made up of, this episode takes a tour of where positivity actually stems from. Not only will we touch base on what creates a lighthearted look into life, I also talk through some of the ways I invite positive thinking into my world and my daily life. Let’s dive into how anxiety, frustration, overwhelm, and more can be affected by or helped with daily routines, setting the tone for yourself, and other helpful ways to create more fluidity in your life.

Owning Your Darn Self

EPISODE 51:
Do you have a personal mission statement that helps you step into who you are in your life, relationships, and experiences? If not, it’s a wonderful tool to have and that is one small piece of owning ourselves we touch on in this episode. Taking some time to truly understand who we are, what makes us tick, and how we operate can be a game changer. So this episode gives food for thought on how to more tactically make choices that serve your highest self.

We touch on perception of others (and ones self), body awareness, creating healthy habits, and so much more. So come along and step into your power and create some takeaways to really become the version of yourself you have been looking and yearning for. When we know better and more importantly, understand better…we do better. For ourselves, for others, and for the collective!

Expanding Your Perspective

EPISODE 50:
Seeing things as one sided or very ‘black & white’ in life can really keep us thinking and feeling narrow minded. What if we can build our minds up to stretch and see more sides to every story, let go of ‘one way thinking’ and simply embrace our experiences more fully? We can!

In this episode I dive into the idea of duality – being able to feel and experience more than one emotion, thought, etc. at the same time. Not only do we tap into what that means, but we also create conversation on how to become better at doing it to free up frustration, anxiety, and other negative emotions that don’t serve us when felt long term. Dive in with me as I talk through how to expand your self awareness on how you perceive people, experiences, and life in general and start releasing what no longer serves you.

Embracing Yourself & Finding Self Love

EPISODE 47:
Taking Flight is baaaaack and ready to go steady!! Not only will the same, heartfelt conversations be right here on the podcast, we are expanding to YOUTUBE. You heard that right! I can’t wait to connect with you all again and begin lighting up all of the community.

In this episode, I welcome us back to the safe haven that is Taking Flight, talk about what to expect from episodes moving forward, and dive a little into the beautiful topic of taking some time to dive deep into what you really need in this season.

Allowing for space within yourself and your energy can really help us to ground down into our vision, but even more importantly, our needs. So in today’s episode I implore you to do just that with some tactical ways to get quiet and go within, which can feel hard, but we’re doing it!
