  • How to Make Progress
    Sep 18 2025

    Welcome to another episode of The Gathering Room! This week I’m broadcasting from a co-working space, thanks to ongoing house repairs at our new home. But my less-than-ship-shape house is possibly the perfect metaphor for the topic we’re diving into today: the idea that “progress” might not always look or feel like we (or others) expect it to. In fact, progress is making us, not the other way around. If you suffer from the idea that you aren't making enough progress, you won't want to miss this one!

  • A Compass Doesn’t Draw Maps
    Sep 11 2025

    Have you ever felt pulled toward something new without knowing exactly why…when there seems to be no logical reason for it?

    In this episode of The Gathering Room podcast, I share all about my family’s recent wild adventure of leaving behind the home we all loved and moving to upstate New York, guided only by the pull of our inner compasses (and a series of delightful coincidences).

    It's an exploration of how true freedom comes from daring to "wayfind" by following what makes us feel most free. Join me!

  • The Uses of Adversity
    Aug 14 2025

    On this slightly (or very?) “woo-woo” episode of The Gathering Room, I share how leaving our beloved home for one that needs a sledgehammer has shaken my normally steady joy... Throughout this difficult time, I’ve received some loving guidance that’s helped me sit with the pain so it can ripen into sweetness—and I’m feeling so much better. Tune in to hear more!

  • How to Fly
    Aug 7 2025

    Welcome to The Gathering Room, beloveds! In this episode, we’re going to talk about flying—both in the literal sense and as a metaphor for living our wildest dreams.

    I also answer listener questions about how to strengthen your metaphorical flying muscles, follow the pull of your intuition, and embrace life’s magic. I also guide you through a meditation to focus on the truest identity you have: wildly alive, loving, excited, compassionate, gentle, and fearless. Join me!

  • When You Can't Let It Go
    Jul 31 2025

    Have you ever tried to “let it go,” only to find that you can’t? That’s because whatever you're struggling with—sadness, fear, anxiety, rage—you don’t have it. It has you. On Episode 215: When You Can’t Let it Go of The Gathering Room, I talk about how to sit with those difficult emotions and just let them stay—and why this is one of the most powerful, transformative things we can do. Join me!

  • How to Keep the Faith
    Jul 24 2025

    Faith isn’t something outside you—it’s a muscle you build from within. If you’ve been depending on outside voices or practices to feel okay during these daunting times, I invite you to return home to your own inner knowing. On this episode of The Gathering Room, we’ll quiet the noise, find our stillness, and surrender into the consciousness that holds us always. Join me!

  • Listen Again: Clear Mind, Quiet Heart
    Jul 17 2025

    As I’m sure you’re keenly aware, people are extremely divided these days. From our politics, to our attitudes, to our ways of speaking about others, we are growing more and more polarized—and mutually destructive.

    On this episode of Listen Again: The Gathering Room podcast, I’m talking about how upset many of us feel, why that upset is not always coming from a place we can trust, and what we can do about it.
