Going no contact is not a decision to be made lightly--and there may even be some alternatives to going no-contact that will bring you more peace. In today's podcast episode, I'm breaking down the 3 types of relationship scenarios where you might consider cutting off a relationship, and the 3 alternatives to going no-contact. And if you do need to go no-contact? I'm breaking down the structure of the conversation so that you know what to say (and what to avoid saying) and how to process the experience.

You know that you need to prioritize the things that matter most--and that's going to mean knowing how to say no. Sometimes you need to know how to say no to people placing demands on your time, and other times you need to know how to say no to your own resistance and temptation to quit or give up on yourself. In today's episode, I'm talking about the art of saying "no" to what doesn't light up your life, so that you can focus on what will.

When you're not living 100 percent fully alive, you feel burned out and stressed out. You don't feel like you have control over your time, the to-do list feels endless, and you lack energy to shift the course. In today's podcast episode, I'm reading aloud from my latest book, "100% Fully alive: From Burnout to Brilliance.” Listen in to hear how you can start to recognize patterns of burnout and actionable strategies to turn things around (trust me; just hearing the description of a 100 percent fully alive life is enough to get inspired around creating positive changes).

If you've ever struggled to set healthy boundaries, or you know you can set them but then you feel more stressed having set them than you did not saying anything at all, today's episode is just for you. I'm getting into setting healthy boundaries and being aware of the hidden landmines that make it harder to set and stick to your boundaries or how to avoid feeling guilty for having set a boundary, afterwards.
