  • Ep. 94 - “How to Blow Up Your Life” with Sara Stansberry
    Mar 17 2026
    This week, I’m having a conversation with Sara Stansberry, writer, podcaster, life coach, and mother who found her true self after blowing up her life.If you’ve ever felt like you’re not living the life you’re meant to, you’ll relate to her story. Maybe you're in an unhappy job or career. Maybe you feel like you’re living in the wrong place. Maybe you’ve had to walk away from your family of origin.I hope Sara’s story inspires you, encourages you, and helps you feel less alone in the hard thing you’re going through. More than anything, I hope this conversation gives you the strength you need to move forward with a really hard decision in your life, whatever it may be. Perhaps Sara can be a source of support should you decide you want a little help. I’m sure she’d love to help!******Show NotesFind Sara here:Her websiteHer Substack, How To Blow Up Your LifeIG @SaraStansberryFB @SaraStansberryTikTok @SaraStansberryOnsite Workshops infoOnsite blogSuggested podcast this weekThe OCD Confessional with Alicia Hill and Liam Martin******Follow Hallie on socials:IG @theawedlife and @hallie_sawyerThreads: @Hallie_SawyerTikTok: @theAWEdLifeWatchall the podcast episodes here: YouTube: @Hallie_Sawyer******Subscribe to my Substackfor my monthly newsletter, updates, weekly essays, to support the podcast, or to join our private AWEd AF community.******The AWEd Life podcast is supported by:IONIntelligence of Nature Gut Support: Defend from toxins, support healthy digestion, and boost immune functionPERFECT AMINO™ is composed of pure essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in a form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized, but without the caloric impact and without breaking a fast.

  • Ep. 93 - Taking on 2026 Like a Long, Beautiful Hike
    Feb 24 2026

    I sat down at the beginning of the year and examined how I wanted to feel this year. What I kept going back to was a gorgeous hike I’d done last fall and realized I wanted to recreate exactly how I felt on that hike.

    I think it may be the way I want to live the rest of my life, actually. Take a listen and see if you agree.

    As always, thank you for being here and for sharing these episodes with your friends. It means the world!

    SHOW NOTES:

    Hikes I mentioned

    My first hike ever was the Ute Trail We made it as far as the rock in this picture. LOL

    The hike we did last fall: Mount Yale trail via Denny Creek trailhead just west of Buena Vista, Colorado. We only went up a couple of miles before turning around. This is a 14er if you want to give it a go!

  • Ep. 91 - What HRV Is and Why I’m Using It As a True Measurement of My Health
    Jan 13 2026
    t's been a couple of months since I've been paying attention to a new health measurement, HRV, which stands for Heart Rate Variability. The reason I'm paying attention to it is because HRV reflects my nervous system's adaptability and how well I respond to stressors, both physical and mental. It just may be the truest measure of my health because if my nervous system isn't resilient, my body won't be either.

  • Ep. 89 - The Importance of Self-Expression Through Creativity and The Lifeline It Offers
    Nov 11 2025

    I wholeheartedly believe we are all creative beings, just in different ways. Some people paint, some write, some design gardens, and some design buildings.

    Creativity is what helps us fully express ourselves, all with some serious side benefits like reducing stress and anxiety. Yes, please.

    Today, I’m sharing my own story of how I “found” my creativity, what it’s done for me, and what it can do for you.

    Expressing ourselves through our creativity will never be time or effort wasted, I promise you.

    SHOW NOTES:

    Episode 1 of the podcast where I give a recap of how I got “here”.

    Episode 61 where I talk about feeling unsupported, which you may resonate with if you are pursuing a creative endeavor

  • Ep. 88 - Rebuilding Her Life, with Mallory Andrews
    Nov 4 2025

    Wow. Mallory and I had the best chat about the deconstruction and reconstruction of herself, her marriage, her religion, and so much more.

    She’s rebuilding her life in a way she’s always wanted and such a great example of what can happen when we choose ourselves.

    I hope you find her story as relatable and inspiring as I do.
