Welcome to the Rebel Buddhist™ Podcast, where I help you free your mind so you can free your life. This podcast is for the rebellious ones. The wild people. I share my stories and what I’ve learned about being a rebel soul who wants to tame her mind…but not her life. It’s led to plenty of adventures and misadventures. I’ve learned tons of tools that combine Buddhist psychology, real-world mindfulness, cognitive coaching, and modern brain science – sort of like if Buddhism and science had a love child. I want to share them with you as we walk this path together. I’m not sharing this as a dharma teacher, but as a fellow practitioner with some street cred. Welcome to my world.

This is a replay of one of my favorite episodes, because if you’re anything like me and you have a tendency toward some major FOMO with a dash of perfectionism, you can spend some serious energy debating all the options for any decision that comes your way. And we have a lot of decisions to make this time of year!
This week we’re diving into the difference between intellectually understanding concepts and knowing them in our BONES. We’ll talk about how we can find true realization on our own path, and the importance of applying it to the real world. We’ll also explore one of the trickiest parts of this all: being radically honest with ourselves about how embodied our wisdom really is.
This coming weekend is the anniversary of my mom’s passing from this life. I have a lot of grief around our relationship in the last couple years of her life.I was impatient and bitchy, sleep deprived and in the throes of postpartum depression, while also getting my doctoral degree and going a shitton of solo parenting.
This week is for those of us who feel a sense of grief that we may have started our spiritual journey “too late.” Who feel we’re way late to the party. I’m going to help you rethink that by showing you why right now is the perfect time for you to begin your path. We’ll also be busting a few myths about what we often think our path should look like, versus what it really is.
This week we’ll talk about what’s possible when we drop our stories. We’ll ask ourselves, “Is this STILL a story that applies to me?” and “Who am I without my story?” We’ll revel in what freedom from the past feels like, how redefining personal narratives can impact the collective, and how this is especially relevant in these times.
This week we’re going to explore what we can do as individuals and as a community when we feel ungrounded during uncertain times. I’ll give you an important first step toward healing and action, lessons from 4000+ year-old trees, and reminders that help keep the spark of hope alive and well. We’ll zoom in and out to make current events more manageable within our hearts, minds, and spirits.
