Live By Design Podcast | Ditch Overwhelm, Take Imperfect Action, & Pursue Your Goals With Confidence
You’re listening to the Live By Design Podcast, the show where I help you set, track, and achieve your personal goals with soul with confidence and clarity. Together we'll transform from feeling stuck and overwhelmed to navigating life with confidence, clarity, and purpose through my signature process - The Live By Design Blueprint.
Because YOU are the architect of your extraordinary life!
If you’ve ever found yourself feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or like you’re spinning your wheels, you’re not alone. And if you’re reading this, chances are you have a desire on your heart for more.
More empowerment. Confidence. Purpose. Joy. Delight. Resilience. Self-love!
And if you’re looking for someone to guide you to meaningful, lasting change then you’ve come to the right place!
I believe that small, sustainable habits repeated over time will dramatically change how you feel as you move through your day. And you know the saying, how you spend your day is how you spend your life - so let’s be intentional with our day-to-day habits and routines and craft our lives by design.
In this podcast, we explore powerful habits, mindset shifts, goals with soul, self awareness and lifelong learning, all while cultivating joy and practicing gratitude.
If you’re ready to make yourself a priority again, adopt the lens of positivity, cultivate a growth mindset, and accept you have the agency to create the life you dream of - then you’ve found your people.

The Emotional Cycle of Change: How to Best Move Through "The Valley of Despair" and Towards Success
“Change is uncomfortable. It’s helpful to understand the process we go through emotionally when we are faced with change so we won’t be derailed by it.”
- Excerpt from The 12 Week Year -
Today we’re diving into the five emotions we all experience when implementing change. They’re what makes up the EMOC (emotional cycle of change), and they go like this:
⭐ Uninformed Optimism
⭐ Informed Pessimism
⭐ The Valley of Despair
⭐ Informed Optimism
⭐ Success
The third experience, known as the Valley of Despair, is our main focus during this mini podcast episode. Because I would argue that if you’re aware that this feeling will occur when making shifts in your own life, then you’ll be more likely to stick with it and see the new habit, skill, or change through to the end.
So if you’re ready to have a plan in place for when things get challenging (and they will!) then pop in those ear buds and let's get motivated to stay the course together.
