Bravely Connected Podcast

Parents are the answer right now.
Not because they have it all figured out — but because when parents choose connection over isolation, everything shifts.
In this episode of the Bravely Connected Podcast, we talk about why parenting was never meant to be a solo act, how rebuilding the village protects our kids, and the small, brave ways parents can begin again — together.

You don’t need to fix every conflict to be loving.
Sometimes the most connected thing you can do is stay out of the middle.
In this episode of the Bravely Connected Podcast, we talk about triangulation—what happens when two people are in conflict and a third person gets pulled in to rescue, regulate, or take sides.
We explore how to pause, return responsibility, and resource people to face conflict directly—without losing compassion, connection, or yourself.
🎧 Listen if you’re tired of being the “fixer” and ready to lead with strength and clarity.

January can feel heavy.
Loneliness often hides behind looking fine.
In this episode, Connie shares how being understood is not the same as being known.
We talk about why happiness can’t be the goal, why people don’t want to be fixed—they want to be witnessed—and how true belonging begins within us, not in the rooms we enter.
If you’ve ever felt unseen, even in spaces where you “should” belong, this episode is for you.

Community is changing.
And honestly… it has to.
Burnout, loneliness, and quiet disengagement aren’t personal failures—they’re signals. In this episode, I share 5 predictions for what community must become in 2026 if we want people to stay, belong, and heal together.
We talk about why:
• Who stays matters more than who shows up
• Belonging is no longer a “soft” value—it’s essential infrastructure
• Smaller, place-based communities are rising
• Conflict competence will matter more than perfect programming
This isn’t about building bigger communities.
It’s about building braver, more human ones.
🎧 Listen in and tell me which one stirred something in you.

2026 doesn’t need a better version of you.
It needs a more honest one.
A more rested one.
A more self-connected one.
In this episode, I walk you through 7 things to gently leave behind—not because you failed, but because you’ve grown wise enough to let go.
We talk about:
✨ over-explaining
✨ guilt-based boundaries
✨ relationships that make you shrink
✨ confusing being needed with being valued
✨ waiting until burnout to rest
✨ carrying what was never yours
✨ and belonging that requires self-betrayal
This isn’t about becoming more.
It’s about coming home to yourself—so you can stay bravely connected to others.
