If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in a loop of overthinking and never feeling caught up—you are so not alone. In this episode, Diane opens up about how anxiety shows up in everyday life (sometimes without us even knowing it), shares personal stories and spirals, and walks you through how she’s learning to manage it all with more awareness, boundaries, and peace.

We’ll unpack things like:

– What anxiety really feels like

– Why overwhelm keeps us from moving forward

– How meditation, energy audits, and even dance classes help

– Plus, the stuff that makes anxiety worse (hi, caffeine and people-pleasing 👋)

This is part one of a two-part series—think of it as the awareness phase. Part two is coming with more tactical tools. But for now, let’s start by getting honest about what’s really going on under the surface.

Ever wondered what really goes down on a clothing-optional cruise? In this episode, Jack and I spill all the juicy details from our first Bliss Cruise experience—yes, the one with 3,000 open-minded people, lots of naked bodies, and plenty of surprises. We talk about what it was actually like (spoiler: you’re not eating dinner next to naked strangers), how it challenged our comfort zones, and what we’d do differently next time. From logistics to lifestyle myths to funny behind-the-scenes moments, this is your backstage pass to a wild and eye-opening adventure!
