Episode 185: How To Set Delusional Goals And Manifest Big Dreams in 2024
I'm not one for TikTok trends, but hear me out... A little bit of delulu might actually be the solulu. Your dream life happens by design, but most of us don't even create the space to dream of what we really want. And the purpose of manifesting and delusional thinking is to imagine our ideal reality, and then integrate that vision and the actions we need to take to get there into our subconscious beliefs and daily habits.

And the purpose of manifesting and delusional thinking is to imagine our ideal reality, and then integrate that vision and the actions we need to take to get there into our subconscious beliefs and daily habits.
This year, we’re dreaming bigger than daily water intake and step counts. We’re going all in on getting out of our comfort zone and setting goals that could truly change our lives. Because if your goals aren’t making you a little uncomfortable, they’re not fucking big enough.
So join me in shooting your moonshot in 2024, and tune in to learn about:
How being a little delulu can build resilience and alter self-efficacy and self-talk
The science behind optimism and confidence in major achievements
The importance of breaking big goals down into achievable steps
Gathering evidence for your goals and building self-belief
Vision boarding and visualization exercises for dreaming big
The power of affirmations and mantras
Surrounding yourself with supportive dreamers
After you document your epic dreams for the year, I hope you can share them with people who will support you and hold you accountable. And if you don’t have those people, share them with me. I’d love to hear your sky-high goals, so slide into my DMs and we can help each other make it happen. You got this!

Episode 150: The Quickie: How To Redefine Success And Find Your Own Path To Fulfillment
The summer of girlhood is thriving: Barbie broke a billion. Taylor Swift is stabilizing the economy. We’re doing all the things, and we’ve proven we can do it all. But should we actually have to? The #hustleculture girlboss era is mellowing out and honestly, we aren’t sad to see it go.
The summer of girlhood is thriving: Barbie broke a billion. Taylor Swift is stabilizing the economy. We’re doing all the things, and we’ve proven we can do it all. But should we actually have to? The #hustleculture girlboss era is mellowing out and honestly, we aren’t sad to see it go.
What was sold to us under the guise of empowerment has become just another benchmark no one can live up to, so it’s time we start redefining success for ourselves. Too often we see success as a zero sum game; we want a prolific career, a healthy balanced life, a happy family and a fulfilling social life, all while comparing ourselves against someone who seems to be doing it better, and it’s impossible to keep up.
There’s more than one way to succeed, and it doesn’t need to be the marriage-house-baby-corporate promotion-trajectory. We’re officially letting go of those tired narratives and rewriting the script on success, because these Barbies have had enough!
Join us as we chat about:
Less girlbossing, more balance
Dismantling societal definitions of success we’ve been taught
Pinpointing our values and passions
Learning to embrace our own unique journey
Celebrating nontraditional milestones and others’ successes
Redefining failure and cultivating a growth mindset
How visualization fits in
Self-auditing your life
The importance of avoiding comparison
