What If Your Greatest Transformation Begins the Moment You Wake Up?

That’s a question I live into every single day.

Because I believe it does.

Every morning, before my feet hit the floor, I remind myself: This is Day One. A fresh opportunity to meet life with presence, purpose, and love. And in this latest episode of the Love & Life Elevated podcast, I had the beautiful honor of exploring exactly what that means—with my favorite person on the planet, Dr. Debra.

This wasn’t just a conversation—it was a soul-aligned moment. A chance to reflect on the practices, the struggles, and the awakenings that inspired my new book, DIEM: The Art of Every Day.

Together, Debra and I dive into how daily rituals can become spiritual revolutions, how rhythm isn’t just biological—it’s sacred, and how radical self-love is the foundation for everything good in life.

Here’s a taste of what we unpack together:

We talk about…

  • The morning rituals that have carried me through dark seasons and into the light

  • Why aligning with your natural rhythm is a spiritual practice (yes, there’s science too)

  • Cold plunges and other sacred discomforts that teach us courage and compassion

  • The real story behind my “Day One” mantra—and how it saved my life

  • How we can love ourselves forward, even when it’s messy, even when it’s hard

Whether you’re feeling stuck, inspired, exhausted, or ready for a breakthrough—this conversation is for you.

Because I truly believe the art of your every day holds the key to your extraordinary life.

So, if you’re ready to elevate—let’s go. Let’s grow. Together.
