⚠️ Note: This is a legacy episode from the Intentional Documentary® era, shared with full transparency and real-time reflection.

It holds up for anyone navigating big life shifts with a desire to protect what matters.

...

A hospital intake call asked, “How do you cope with stress?”

My off-the-cuff answer: “I look at what’s happening and take one step forward.”

This sparked a deeper reflection on what that actually looks like when life gets full and uncertain.

This solo episode is from a past season of my work, recorded just before surgery, while launching a project, managing parenting stress, and facing financial pressure. 

Whether you’re building a business or just trying to stay steady during a demanding season, there’s something here for you.

In this episode:

  • 5 stress-reducing thought-exercises (with questions to journal or ponder) — these helped me loosen the grip of anxiety and control, stay grounded in truth, and find next steps. 
  • How I protected my business during personal upheaval
  • The difference between facts vs. feelings
  • Practical ways I simplified launches, planning, and communication
  • A behind-the-scenes look at my life during a stressful transition
