Encore: There is a Season
20d ago
There’s a famous song by The Byrds called Turn! Turn! Turn! that speaks to the changing seasons of our lives. The lyrics remind us: “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.” While it’s natural to focus on times of growth and positivity, it’s equally important to honor the seasons of difficulty and loss. In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we’ll explore the benefits of fully experiencing each season, whether joyful or painful, and how doing so can help us gain deeper insights into ourselves and strengthen the resilience we need to move through life.

The Things We Can’t Rush
2mo ago
In a culture that values speed and constant forward movement, patience can feel frustrating, uncomfortable, and even counterproductive. Yet many of the things we value most, such as healing, growth, relationships, and meaningful change, can't be rushed. In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we'll explore why patience can be so challenging, why cultivating it matters, and what we gain when we stop trying to force progress and instead learn to trust the process.
The Stories We Keep Editing
3mo ago
Humans are natural storytellers. For centuries, we’ve used stories to pass down wisdom, share experiences, and make sense of the world around us. But we also tell stories about ourselves, about who we are, what matters to us, and how we want to be seen. In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we explore storytelling as identity and how the stories we tell, edit, repeat, and hide influence the way we see ourselves and connect with others.
Encore: When Experience Becomes Insight
4mo ago
Not every experience feels meaningful in the moment. Some feel messy, others feel frustrating, and some feel hard. Over time, those same moments often become the ones that shape us most and expand the way we see ourselves. What if our experiences - good, bad, or otherwise - have something to show us about who we are? In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we explore why the moments we struggle with often have the most to teach us and how self-reflection can turn our experiences into insight.

What Actually Matters

Many of us spend years focused on achievement - building careers, pursuing goals, and trying t o prove ourselves. But at some point, the question begins to shift from “What can I accomplish?” to “What actually matters?”On this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we explore the different seasons of life, the early experiences that shape who we become, and how meaning grows through connection, purpose, and the choices we make about what truly matters.
Beginner's Mindset
6mo ago
A beginner’s mindset, called shoshin in Zen Buddhism, is about approaching life with openness and curiosity. In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we explore what it means to reclaim a beginner’s mindset not as a philosophy, but as a practice. We talk about what it costs us when we stop being curious, and how choosing to be a beginner again can lead to growth, self-awareness, and creativity.
Little Wins
7mo ago
When we are chasing big dreams and long-term goals, progress can feel invisible unless it’s bold, flashy, or final. We keep our eyes on the prize, telling ourselves we’ll feel satisfied once we get there. But along the way, we often miss the moments that are actually building momentum, the small-but-meaningful milestones that quietly add up to something bigger. In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we explore why recognizing and celebrating the little wins matters and how these moments quietly build confidence and resilience over time.

In this episode of Get Big Out Loud, we’ll explore what happens after success and share ideas for navigating the space between achievement and whatever comes next.
