I didn't plan to go here today. I sat down to meditate and a leaf blower started wailing outside my window. And somehow, that leaf blower became the gateway to the most vulnerable story I've ever told on this show.

In this reflection:

✨ The leaf blower meditation moment that created a breakthrough

✨ My dark night of the soul in 2020 and the love I lost to a mental health crisis

✨ Why running toward agitation instead of away from it dissolves everything

✨ The aligned abundance journaling that had me ugly crying at my desk

✨ A guided vision of the life that is already waiting for you on the other side

This episode is a transmission. I went to the darkest places I've ever been in this one and came out the other side into a vision so clear and so beautiful it made me weep. The 2020 version of me could not have imagined sitting here feeling this free.

If you are in your dark night right now, this one is for you. Go deeper into it. The portal is there.

Drop a comment and tell me what came up for you. I'd love to hear from you.

I'm back. After nearly a year away, I sat down, meditated for 30 minutes, and recorded whatever came through, just like I always have. And wow, did a lot come through!

In this reflection:

✨ Why I disappeared and what "the forest" of inner work actually looked like

✨ The $50K salesman story that explains the glass ceiling on my nervous system

✨ How I healed an unhealthy relationship I was too embarrassed to even look at

✨ Why reducing inputs is the only way to increase your outputs

✨ How The Board Walks went from 2 cities to 14 (and where we're going!)

This past year was an initiation. Deep inner work, shadow integration, forgiveness practices in the bathtub, nervous system resets. I stepped down from hosting the walks in July 2025. I went off social media entirely. I gave myself the space I'd been refusing to give myself my entire life.

And I came into 2026 like a ROCKET.

The walks are now in 14 cities. The Friday Debrief newsletter has thousands of readers. The Board is being built. And I feel more like myself than I ever have.

If you're in the forest right now, keep going. This one's for you.

Drop a comment and tell me where you are in your journey. I'd love to hear from you.

Y'all, I am SO lit up right now. The momentum around bringing The Board Walks to more cities has been absolutely insane, and I had to catch you up on everything that's happened since I sent those 40 emails at 8pm on a Saturday night.

In this episode, I'm sharing all the juicy updates from my host interviews and the cities that are about to launch - including some wild synchronicities that have me completely shook.

Here's what we're diving into:

✨✨ Why seeing other people do "inspired by" walk events lit a fire under me to move faster

✨ How frustration became my biggest motivator (and why that's actually genius)

✨ The dad of five boys in Denver who reminded me I'm building something truly special

✨ The lawyer in Virginia Beach who had me talking for an hour instead of 20 minutes

✨ The NYC energy that has me getting 10-15 applications from one city alone

✨ The Lisbon host who's already hosted MORE walks than me (200+!)

I'm also getting vulnerable about the weird competitive feelings I had when people started copying my format, how Cam's advice about being "fully expressed" changed my perspective, and why I'm basically assembling The Avengers of walk hosts.

If you're someone who gets frustrated seeing others do what you wish you were doing, this episode will give you the kick in the pants you need to get moving on your own mission.

Listen if you're ready to turn your frustration into fuel and finally stop dragging your feet on the thing you know you're meant to do.
