  • 2. Start Messy, Stay Wild: 5 Ways to Do the Fk'n Thing
    Jan 23 2025
    Welcome to the second episode of Unapologetically Wild! In this episode, we’re getting into what it really means to "do the fk'n thing"—not with fearlessness or a perfectly laid-out plan, but by showing up messy, scared, and uncertain, and taking action anyway. I share my personal journey of leaving a stable career, buying an RV (without a clue how to use it), and proving to myself what’s possible when you trust your gut and start taking bold steps -- but to be wild, you don't need to do all that! I share all about the mental traps that keep us stuck—like perfectionism, fear of judgment, and waiting to feel “ready”—and break them down with 5 actionable strategies to help you take the first step toward the life you want. Spoiler alert: Confidence doesn’t come before action—it comes from it. Plus, hear about the science of fear, how to flip the script when self-doubt creeps in, and why your future self will thank you for making bold moves today. In this episode:
    • Why waiting for “ready” is keeping you stuck—and how to move forward anyway.
    • How to take micro shifts instead of overwhelming leaps.
    • The power of asking, “What’s the worst that could happen?”
    • Why clarity comes from doing, not planning.
    • How to reframe fear and focus on what’s possible.
    Take Action: Make your “badass list.” Write down all the bold, amazing things you’ve already done and keep it handy for moments of doubt. Resources mentioned: Mind Magic by James Doty Connect with me:

  • 1. Living Unapologetically Wild: How My Journey Began
    Jan 23 2025
    Welcome to the very first episode of Unapologetically Wild! Today’s episode is extra special as I launch this podcast on what would have been my dad’s 85th birthday. He taught me to live unapologetically wild, to trust myself, and to figure life out by doing—not waiting. In this episode, I’m sharing the moments, lessons, and leaps that led me here. From learning how to change a tire on I-95 at 16 to quitting a 13-year nursing career to live life on my terms, my journey has been anything but conventional. Through all the twists and turns, the fears and failures, I’ve learned that you don’t need the perfect plan to create a life you love—you just need to be willing to take the first step. If you’ve ever felt stuck, scared, or unsure about your next move, you’re in the right place. In this episode:
    • How my dad inspired the Unapologetically Wild mindset.
    • The value of figuring life out by doing—not waiting.
    • Why taking action (even when scared) is the key to growth.
    • How I left nursing, bought an RV, and started a business from scratch.
    • Why living unapologetically wild doesn’t require a grand leap—it can start with small steps.
    Take Action: What’s one small step you can take today toward the life you want? It doesn’t have to be perfect or planned—just start!
