  • #104 - BuJo by the Sea – A 6-Week Summer Journal Challenge
    Jul 19 2025

    Send me a Text Message.

    Clarity, confidence, and calm… one bullet at a time.

    Summer tends to shake things up — especially if you’ve got kids at home, your routine is out the window, or you’re simply craving a break from the usual hustle. That’s why I’m hosting a gentle 6-week journaling challenge, right inside the Ja, Wol Community.

    BuJo by the Sea is a relaxed, Bullet Journal–inspired journey.
    Each day, from July 19 to August 30, you’ll get one simple prompt to help you:

    • Set an intention
    • Reflect on a mindful journaling question
    • Choose one priority
    • Log what happens with the original Bullet Journal bullets (• – ○ =)

    You don’t need anything fancy. Just a notebook, a pen, and a few minutes a day.
    This is a lovely way to experiment with the practice if you’re new to Bullet Journaling — or to return to it with fresh eyes if you’ve drifted away.

    You can join for free — in our own Ja, Wol Community private BuJo by the Sea space.

    Let’s move slowly together this summer.
    I’ll be there, journaling right alongside you.

    SUMMARY

    In this mostly unscripted episode, I share how Bullet Journaling helped me move from burnout to clarity. Before it became a tool in my business, it was a lifeline in my personal life. This is not a tutorial—it’s a story of how I found my footing again, and why I still use this method today. And I announce an exciting challenge I'm working on!

  • #101 - “My Deepest, Darkest Limiting Belief: I Can’t Help Others if My Business Isn’t Thriving”
    Jun 9 2025

    Send me a Text Message.

    In this super honest solo episode, I unpack a limiting belief that’s followed me for years: “I can’t help others with their business if mine isn’t thriving.” As I deepen my coaching journey and reflect on what true success means, I’m realizing how deeply ingrained this belief is—and how untrue it actually is. I share the honest behind-the-scenes of my work, money mindset, slow growth, and how I’m redefining success to align with values over volume. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not “far enough” to help others, this episode is for you.

  • #99 - Launch - Sharing your work with connection, not pressure
    May 10 2025

    Send me a Text Message.

    SUMMARY

    In this episode, we dive into the final step of the Ja, Wol framework—Launch. Sharing your work with the world can feel scary, vulnerable, and overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Launching isn’t about hype or hustle; it’s about connection and care. I talk about why launching feels so hard (especially for neurodivergent brains), how to rethink launching as a slow rhythm instead of a one-time event, and ways to share your work more gently and joyfully. If you’ve been holding back on putting your work into the world, this episode is your invitation to rethink how launching can feel.

  • #97 - Wayfinding – Rediscovering Your Why – How to reconnect with your purpose when your business starts to drift
    Apr 17 2025

    Send me a Text Message.

    SUMMARY

    When your business starts to feel off, it’s often a sign that you’ve drifted from your “why.” In this thoughtful and gently playful episode, I talk about reconnecting with your purpose—what lights you up, what matters to you, and why you started in the first place.

    Whether you’re feeling stuck in the daily swirl or just getting started with your business, this episode is your invitation to pause, reflect, and get back in touch with what makes your work feel meaningful. This is the first in a special series based on my Wayfind–Organise–Launch framework.
