301. How to Create the Next 90 Days of Your Dreams (Without Hustle or Burnout) Jul 08, 2025

Show notes

Hey sweet friends—today’s episode is truly something special. I’m inviting you behind the scenes into a deeply personal practice that has shaped some of the most meaningful seasons of my life. ✨

It’s a simple tool I’ve used for years, but have never shared like this before—Dream Journaling.

This isn’t about writing to-do lists or hustling your way through life. This is about tapping into the desires God has placed on your heart and writing your life into being—from a place of peace, joy, purpose, and love. Whether you’re stepping into a season of rest or dreaming up a new chapter, this episode will walk you through how to dream on paper in a way that actually transforms your days.

If you’re ready to create a magical 90 days (yes, even with a full schedule or time off!), this one's for you. 💛

What dream journaling is and why it’s different from goal setting
How to access your “future self” now—and write from that place
Why journaling from desire (not pressure) is so powerful
The four dream journaling prompts to kickstart your next season
How to anchor into the emotional energy you want—before the outcome

📓 Dream Journaling Prompts from the Episode:

What do I truly desire?
How do I want to feel as I move through this season?
What would it look like if it already happened?
What truth do I need to remember?

💡Whether you’re navigating transitions, planning a big life moment, or just want to live with more intention and creativity, dream journaling could be the tool you never knew you needed.

Let’s create our next 90 days on purpose—together. And stay tuned for the upcoming mini-course where I’ll show you exactly how I use this tool in real life! 💕

Show notes

Hi, dear ones!

We’re coming off the most magical weekend at Love is Magic—my heart is full to bursting and my soul is stirred. In this episode, I’m bringing you behind the scenes of the event, the stories that made me weep all the way home, and the invitation that’s on my heart for all of us: What’s your next level of growth?

Whether it’s in your health, your relationships, your spiritual life, your impact, or your rest (yes, that counts too!), I believe you were made for growth. But here’s the thing—real transformation often feels like a death to the old you. And it can be so easy to resist it. I know—I’ve been there. But the moment we say yes to that next level… The ripple effects are beautiful.

Let’s talk about:

The power of intention and how it literally slows down time
Why personal responsibility is the most loving thing you can offer yourself
How to mark and honor life’s sacred moments (even your 25th anniversary on a jet ski!)
Why unused potential isn’t benign—and what to do about it

And of course, I’ll share why this summer might just be my most intentional season yet—and how you can join me in making this your most magical 90 days too.

297. Your Most Magical 90 Days Are Waiting! Jun 24, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever felt the rumblings of a new season stirring in your soul… but also found yourself resisting it because, well, life is already “good”? In this solo episode, Dr. Edie shares what it looks like to say yes to a season of reinvention—not from hustle or burnout, but from rest, joy, and deep, soul-level desire.

This week, I’m pulling back the curtain on something stirring in my heart: the beginning of a brand new season of growth, reinvention, and healing. And not the kind born from hustle—but from love, rest, and desire.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve felt God inviting me to live from a new place of overflow. I’m reimagining my health, my rhythms, my leadership, and even my rest. And it’s leading me into what I truly believe will be the most magical 90 days of my life so far.

✨ Inside the episode, I’m sharing:

What finally made me say “yes” to a new season—even when life was already good
How I’m planning to create more while doing less
Why I believe mindset is only part of the picture—and what it means to actually embody transformation
My personal 90-day goals (and how you can come along with me behind the scenes!)

If you’ve been feeling a nudge that it’s time for a shift—maybe a quiet whisper that you haven’t even scratched the surface of the life you’re meant to live—I hope this episode meets you right where you are.

293. The #1 Thing I Love About Midlife (And Why It’s the Perfect Time to Reinvent Yourself) Jun 10, 2025

Show notes

We are getting real about something no one talks about enough: freedom in midlife. It’s the gift we all think we want—more time, fewer responsibilities, a quieter house—but once it arrives, it often feels disorienting… even disappointing. Why?

Because freedom without intention can feel like a prison.But freedom with vision? That’s where the magic is.

This episode is a powerful invitation to wake up to the life you’ve been given. To stop drifting. To stop filling your days with things that don’t truly matter to you. And to choose, on purpose, what this season of your life will be about.

You’ll hear:

A wild story from Edie’s childhood that shaped how she sees invisible prisons
What to do if you feel lost or restless in midlife
How to lead yourself with joy, vision, and energy
Why self-leadership is the path to freedom (not the absence of responsibility)
