We all think and talk about what we’ll do someday, but what if that someday could start right now? If there’s a change you want to make in yourself, in your life, or an idea that you have that you want to make real … this podcast is for you. After 20 years leading and coaching innovators, Certified Coach Marie McDonald is breaking down how great change-makers think so you can do what they do and take your ideas out of your head and into the world where they belong. We’ll teach you how to stop trying to get other people to like you and your ideas, and how to be your own biggest fan instead. You’ll learn how to ditch the drama and have fun with failure, to stop taking things personally, and to get out of anxiety and into decisive action when you don’t even know how or what you’re doing yet. Marie has used this work to go from bar tender to Vice President, to create the family of her dreams, and to start a multiple six-figure business from scratch within eight months. Whether you want to change a relationship, a habit, write a book or start a movement, it starts here on The Bloom Your Mind Podcast. Find me on Instagram @the.bloom.coach to get a daily mind-bloom, and join my weekly list. See you inside!

  • Ep 168: Reverse Aging
    Apr 3 2026

    At some point in life, many of us quietly stop imagining.

    We make the big decisions—where we live, what we do for work, whether we partner or have kids—and then without realizing it… we start maintaining instead of creating.

    We stop setting bold goals.
    We stop asking who we want to become next.
    We stop imagining what’s possible.

    In this episode, we flip that pattern.

    We talk about reverse aging—a way of thinking about your life where instead of your most exciting, expansive, alive years being behind you… they are still ahead.

    Where your future is more interesting than your past.
    Where you are still becoming.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode

    • How we unconsciously “lock in” our identity after making major life decisions
    • Why stagnation happens when we stop imagining new possibilities
    • The concept of reverse aging—living as if your best days are still ahead
    • How “being ridiculous at first” helps suspend disbelief and unlock creativity
    • Why blue sky thinking is essential for innovation in your life (not just business)
    • How to re-engage your imagination to create a more expansive future
    • Questions and lenses to ask about the future to open up possibility
    • Five areas to reimagine with the lens of the best days still to come

    Let yourself be ridiculous at first.

    When you let yourself imagine again—without limits, without immediate realism—you reconnect with possibility.

    And from that place, everything opens up.

    So this week, ask yourself:
    What would my life look like if I were reverse aging?

    And then let yourself begin.

  • Ep 167: Do Less Be More
    Mar 27 2026

    Ever notice how sometimes, when you have the smallest margins and the most to do in a small period of time…for some reason that seems to be exactly when the tire is flat, the dog gets out, or you start getting that tickle in the back of your throat?

    It was one of those weeks for me; with two back to back speaking events separated by a red eye flight, when I got really sick, for the first time in years. I didn’t have time to prepare the way I normally would. I had to re-think what was most important and how to pull it all off in a way that honored the people who were counting on me. And what happened next surprised me. Less preparation, and more presence can be a really, really good thing.

    For so many of the women I coach, we’ve been socialized to believe that we need to do more, serve more, prepare more; provide more value. But what if we’ve been over-relying on doing… at the expense of being?


    What You’ll Learn in This Episode

    • Why so many of us over-prepare, overwork, and over-function as a way to prove our value
    • How the gender gap shows up in our belief we need to do more
    • The hidden belief that “I have to do more to be enough”—and how it shows up in work, leadership, and life
    • How over-preparing can actually block presence, connection, and impact
    • How our capacity increases when we understand our value is our mind, our presence and whatever we bring in the moment
    • How releasing pressure allows you to be more open, responsive, and powerful in the moment
    • How to understand your yellow zones, and make a goal to increase your comfort with doing less
    • How increasing your self-trust ripples out into every area of your life

    What if your value is already inherent—because you exist?

    When you start from that place, you show up more open, more grounded, more connected, more present to what’s actually happening - and ironically, that’s when your best work comes through.

    You are valuable because you’re you. Not because of how much you do. Not because of how well you perform. Not because of how prepared you are. When you release the need to prove, you unlock a different kind of power and capacity.

    A more grounded power. A more connected presence. A more magnetic way of moving through the world…and way more fun. So this week, experiment with doing a little less…
    And being a whole lot more.

  • Ep 166: Five Mindset Hacks That Bloom Your Love
    Mar 20 2026

    If you’ve ever thought that focusing on the good in your relationship is “cheating” or “fooling yourself,” this episode is your reset.

    Because the truth is: this is exactly what the most successful, long-lasting, deeply fulfilling relationships are built on.

    In this episode, we dive into five powerful (and yes, a little sassy) mindset shifts that will help you become the spark in your relationship. The one who brings the energy, the connection, the playfulness, and the depth—on purpose.

    Because love isn’t something you wait for.
    It’s something you create with how you think.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode

    • Why focusing on what’s working in your relationship is backed by research—and not delusion
      How your thoughts shape what you see, feel, and create in love
    • Why the most successful couples actively choose beliefs that strengthen their bond
    • How to use mindset as a tool to increase connection, attraction, and appreciation
    • Five specific, practical mindset hacks you can apply immediately to transform your relationship
    • How research supports the effort we put into mindset as the highest yielding investment we can make in our relationship.

    These five mindset shifts are simple—but they are not small.

    They change what you notice.
    They change how you feel.
    They change how you show up.
    And that changes everything in your relationship.

    You don’t need your partner to change first.
    You get to lead.

    And when you do, love expands.

    That’s what I’ve got for you this week. 💛
