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 109: The PB&J Hiring Method: How to Actually Find the Right People
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if hiring the wrong person isn’t just costing you money… but your energy, your time, and your ability to breathe in your own business?
In this episode, we’re rethinking hiring entirely. Because it’s not about filling roles—it’s about finding the right people. The ones who don’t just check boxes, but actually support your life and expand your capacity.
Through a deeply personal story (and a hiring fail you won’t forget), this episode walks you through a different way to approach hiring—one that prioritizes alignment, energy, and long-term success over urgency and resumes.
If you’ve ever hired too quickly, held onto the wrong person too long, or questioned your instincts… this conversation will shift how you think about building your team.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why hiring out of urgency almost always backfires
- The “quarterback” concept and why you need one in your business
- The PB&J framework for finding the right fit
- The two most important hiring filters (that most people ignore)
- Why resumes don’t tell you what actually matters
- How to test before you commit to a hire
- The red flags you shouldn’t talk yourself out of
- When the problem isn’t hiring… it’s clarity
- Why letting go of the wrong people is part of hiring the right ones
