    Mar 20 2026

    Why do interruptions feel so frustrating—and what if they’re actually the point?

    In this episode of The Way Forward, I explore how unexpected interruptions in life can shape growth, perspective, and resilience. Instead of resisting life’s disruptions, what happens when we learn to embrace them?

    If you’ve ever felt thrown off by things not going according to plan, this episode will challenge how you see control, timing, and purpose

  • S8E4: Shut Up Old Yeller!
    Feb 26 2026

    In this episode of Better Moody, I talk about anger — the kind that doesn’t look dramatic at first. The kind that builds quietly under responsibility, exhaustion, stress, and emotional burnout.


    I exploded.


    And underneath that explosion wasn’t rage. It was pressure. It was holding too much. It was trying to be strong for too long.


    We’re talking about what anger is really protecting, why high-functioning people still snap, and why those brief moments of “I think I’m going to be okay” can feel temporary when you’re emotionally overwhelmed.


    If you’ve ever yelled and then felt ashamed… if you feel capable but secretly fragile… if you’re tired of pretending you’re fine — this episode is for you.


    This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being honest.


    Let’s talk about stress, emotional regulation, burnout, and what happens when the sun peeks through the shadows — even if just for a moment.

  • S8E3: Riding the PT High
    Feb 12 2026

    Fresh off brigade PT and riding that physical-exertion high, I’m checking in with a real-life update. Between TDYs, nonstop movement, and learning new roles at work, life has been moving fast — but momentum is momentum.


    In this episode I talk about carving out time for music projects, planning upcoming releases, parenting reflections (including watching confidence grow and shift in my kids), and preparing to hold the line through a busy transition period. It’s less storytelling today and more grounding — a reminder that progress sometimes looks like motion, organization, and showing up even when everything is happening at once.


    This is an honest pulse check from the middle of it all — energized, grateful, and moving forward.


    This is Better Moody.

    This is The Way Forward.

  • S8E2: The Best-Laid Plans and Grocery Bag Surprises
    Feb 5 2026

    In this episode, we’re talking about plans that unravel, family that tests us, and how to find joy in the chaos between everyday responsibilities. From early morning dog scrimmages to parenting lessons, unexpected detours, and reflections on what it really means to move forward, this conversation explores resilience, humor, and growth in real life.

    We dig into themes of mindset, perspective, and turning obligations into moments of meaning — while sharing candid stories about motherhood, responsibility, and embracing life as it unfolds (even when it doesn’t go according to plan).

    Stay tuned through the episode for a special bonus teaser from the upcoming album Beautiful Inclusions, releasing this July.

    If you enjoy authentic storytelling, personal growth insights, relatable family experiences, and motivational reflection, this episode is for you.

  • S8E1: Don’t Drop the Ball — Why Group Projects Lied to Us
    Feb 3 2026

    This episode is about what happens when teamwork fails and how we carry the consequences — even when we did our part.

    Life isn't always what is expected but we can manage expectations. I'm not sure if that means love the dirty house as is but maybe there is room to avoid a panic attack when it is dirty :)

    Keep your big balls in the air lol. Adult responsibly!
