The Power of Oxygen 1st
When my son was little, I was a single mom who was doing it all alone. I was putting everyone else first and my own needs last. To everyone around me, I was successful but little did they know that my success was tied to pushing, stressing, sleepless nights and early morning workouts pushing my body and my limits to the extreme. Until one day I was flying alone and nearly crashed an airplane and I realized that I needed to take care of my own needs first before anyone else. You see, when you’re a pilot, if you have any issues in the plane, you put on your oxygen mask 1st, not your passengers. They need you to land the plane.
This podcast is all about this journey to healing, to getting clear on the desires of your heart… and stepping into them with courage while leaning into, asking for and receiving support. I hope you feel inspired to do less, to follow your passions and infuse them into your daily life and truly claim the life you were meant to live: a life filled to the brim with epic ADVENTURE.

Ep 106: Aligned Support Changes Everything: Why Business Owners Need Support to Grow Their Business
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the key to growing your business isn’t working harder… but protecting your energy?
In this episode we explore the powerful connection between support, personal vitality, and sustainable leadership. Many entrepreneurs believe success requires constant hustle, but the truth is that your creativity, clarity, and leadership capacity expand when you are nourished, not depleted.
If you’ve ever struggled with hiring help, delegating, or asking for support in your business or personal life, this episode will challenge your assumptions and offer a healthier way forward.
Because thriving businesses aren’t built on burnout, they’re built on oxygen.
In this episode:
• Why protecting your personal energy improves leadership and decision-making
• The hidden cost of operating without enough support
• How misaligned support creates friction while aligned support creates flow
• Why passions and creative hobbies actually fuel business success
• The common hiring mistakes entrepreneurs make when bringing on help
• How to shift limiting beliefs around hiring, delegation, and support
