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 108: When Your Why Changes: A Letter Writing Ritual for You in Transition
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if your why isn't meant to last forever?
If you feels like the purpose that once drove you no longer fits, this episode is for you.
Dot shares why your why is seasonal, not permanent, and walks you through a simple letter-writing ritual to reconnect with what you actually want your life to feel like right now.
In this episode:
- Why your why should feel like oxygen, not pressure
- What happens to purpose after trauma or major life shifts
- A letter-writing template to help you find clarity
- Dot reads her own personal "why letter" out loud
Write the Letter Template
Let it be messy. Let it be honest.
Dear Me,
This is your why… for now.
Right now, you are building this life because…
You desire…
You are no longer available for…
You are choosing…
This matters because…
Even on the hard days, remember…
Love,
Me
