How to Stop Overthinking Everything (and What to do Instead)

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 12:00:41 +0000

This is the first episode in a short 4-part series about the most common ways high achievers get in their own way.

In this episode, we tackle overthinking:

what it is
why we do it
examples of how it shows up
the costs of overthinking
what to do instead

In the subsequent three episodes, we'll tackle the similarly frustrating protective patterns of perfectionism, people pleasing, and imposter syndrome.

If this episode hits home, please know that you're not alone. There are many of us out here! Share it with a friend to remind them that they too are not alone. This is a very common unhelpful tendency (aka a protective pattern), and one that we can absolutely shift with practice.

Why Getting Triggered is Good Thing (and What to do When it Happens)

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 08:10:05 +0000

Instead of resisting our triggers, we can learn to embrace (and even love) them!

Here's what I've learned from my own experience of ignoring and judging myself for my triggers for years (spoiler alert: it just made things worse) and ultimately how I finally shifted my approach and trained myself to reframe them as a good thing and turn them into opportunities for growth and healing.

Ambition Without Burnout

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 18:36:22 +0000

As I see with so many of my high achieving clients, ambition often leads to burnout.

In this episode, I offer a different approach. One that still allows you to strive for excellence and passionately pursue your goals, but in a much more grounded and mindful way.

Tune in to see which of these 5 tips resonates most for you.

Why and how transformation can happen so quickly

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 22:50:49 +0000

This week I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing a glimpse into how I facilitate transformation in my clients. They get great - and lasting - results, and often very quickly.

Much of that is thanks to a simple framework I use that helps them heal their relationship with themselves, find clarity on who they are and what they want, and take consistent, aligned action toward their desires.

As they begin down that path, we work on their mindset and emotions to navigate hurdles, and sprinkle in some manifestation magic to take things up a notch.

While this is the framework I use with my high achieving clients (most of whom are already crushing it in their careers, but are seeking greater balance and fulfillment in their personal lives), it is applicable to most of us!

Feel free to use it if it resonates.

How to Stop Should-ing All Over Yourself

Thu, 14 Aug 2025 12:00:46 +0000

How often do you find yourself saying "I should"? Or doing what you're "supposed to" do?

If you're anything like me, you may have found yourself "should-ing" all over yourself repeatedly, letting external expectations and pressures guide your path.

This episode is for you if you want to let go of this very common, but very unhelpful tendency and train yourself to follow your internal guidance instead.

I turn 45 this month

Thu, 03 Jul 2025 21:00:12 +0000

My 45 birthday is July 20th! In addition to celebrating that fun milestone, here's how I'm challenging the societal narratives around aging, and how I'm choosing to approach it instead.

In this episode, we look at aging as it relates to:

health
beauty
career
romance
parenting
money

I say let's ignore the lame outdated stories about what it means to be in midlife and create our own. As I say a bunch of times in this episode, I've only just begun. We get to choose that belief anytime. Over and over again. LFG.

This week’s episode is a little different because... well, life is life-ing. Sick baby, and sick mama, but also our 9 year wedding anniversary (and Mother's Day!) #allthethings

In the meantime, I wanted to bring you a little clip from THE most downloaded episode of Oh, Hi Self! ever: the very first one I recorded with Chris.

It’s a glimpse into the kinds of conversations that define our relationship. I hope you enjoy this little snippet, and if you dig the topic, go back and give the full episode a listen.

We talk about what it means to actually live your dream life—from growing up watching LA Law in England to building a thriving law firm in San Francisco and doing meaningful, emotional work representing survivors of abuse.

You're Allowed to Change Your Mind

Thu, 10 Apr 2025 15:00:00 +0000

This week I’m diving into a mantra that has shaped my life in the best way possible:

You’re allowed to change your mind.

About anyone. About anything. At any time.

This belief has become a cornerstone in how I live, how I coach, and how I keep choosing freedom over fear. In this episode, I’m riffing on why we stay stuck in things that no longer serve us—relationships, careers, identities, even old dreams—and how we can start giving ourselves actual permission to evolve.

So many of us stay small because we’re scared—of being judged, of disappointing ourselves, of starting over. I get it. Been there. But I also know that letting yourself pivot is one of the most powerful things you can do.

Let this episode be your permission slip.

The Art of Intentional Living w. Ellen Charnley

This conversation is close to my heart. In this episode, I’m talking with my dear friend and former client Ellen Charnley, who went from high-powered executive to heart surgery survivor to Ironman athlete… and most recently, to a joy-filled early retirement.

We dive into her journey of navigating major health scares, breaking free from corporate burnout, and facing the terrifying question of “who am I without my job?”

If you’re craving more freedom, clarity, or purpose in your next chapter, Ellen’s story is packed with wisdom, humor, and the kind of real talk that might just give you permission to start choosing your life—on your own terms.

Visualization Hack

Thu, 13 Mar 2025 20:35:00 +0000

Today I’m diving into something that’s been a game-changer for me: visualization. Visualization, when done right, isn’t passive. It’s not just staring at a vision board, hoping life shifts to meet you there. It’s an active, embodied experience.

It’s about seeing, feeling, and stepping into a reality before it exists—until it becomes inevitable.

At the end, I’ll guide you through a quick exercise. Something simple. Something tangible. Something you can use today to start stepping into the future you want—before it’s even here.

Thu, 30 Jan 2025 18:00:00 +0000

Parenting has been a wild and wonderful adventure so far. The highs are higher than we ever imagined, and the challenges are real. But we’re embracing it all.

No amount of preparation could have predicted just how much we’d fall in love with Rio and with being parents.

New Year, Do You

Fri, 03 Jan 2025 04:40:00 +0000

Hello, my loves, and welcome to another episode of Oh, Hi Self! Happy New Year, y’all! 🎉 It’s officially 2025, and today, we’re diving into how to approach this new year in a way that feels aligned, authentic, and empowering.

Key Takeaways

Authenticity is the ultimate New Year’s goal—ditch societal expectations and create a life that feels good to you.
Avoid the all-or-nothing trap of traditional resolutions. Choose approaches that feel aligned and sustainable.
Whether you’re embracing a word of the year, building habits, or redefining your identity, this is your chance to craft a year that reflects your true self.

Here’s to an authentic and aligned 2025. Remember, New Year, Do You!

Ending the Year Mindfully

Thu, 19 Dec 2024 13:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to Oh, Hi Self! It’s Sandra here, reporting from the newborn vortex—land of sleep-deprived zombie humans. Baby Rio is 5 weeks old, and while life is full of snuggles and hilarious baby noises (think baby elephant meets pterodactyl), it’s been a journey of recovery, patience, and surrender.

Today, I’m sharing what life looks like right now—messy and beautiful—and diving into one of my favorite practices: ending the year mindfully. Reflecting on the past year helps us honor our experiences, celebrate progress, and learn from challenges before diving into the new year.

Here are some journaling prompts to help you reflect:

What were the main events of the year?
What themes or lessons stood out?
Which relationships mattered most, and how did they evolve?
What habits helped you grow?
What challenges did you face, and what did you learn?
Is there any lingering tension or frustration you can release?

Take a moment to pause and reflect—you deserve it.

What We Didn't Learn in School (But Should Have)

Thu, 31 Oct 2024 12:00:00 +0000

Baby is due any day now, but I was able to squeeze in another episode for ya! This topic has been on my mind for a while. Our educational system has failed us in some pretty big ways, and we've got work to do to change that.

Here are 5 of the most crucial subjects we didn't learn in school but should have, in my opinion:

1) Mindfulness

2) Emotional intelligence

3) Assertive communication

4) Personal finance

5) Sex education that is actually empowering

We need to do a much better job of equipping young adults with the actual life skills they need. Would love to hear your thoughts on this one!

Honor the Season You're In

Thu, 17 Oct 2024 12:00:00 +0000

Today we’re diving deep into a topic that’s been coming up with clients a lot recently, and that is very close to my heart right now: honoring the season you’re in.

The season I'm in right now is... being pregnant AF lol. Tune in to hear my latest pregnancy updates. I share how I’m feeling physically and mentally, and what this season is teaching me about slowing down, resting, and creating space for the new life that’s about to join us.

In this episode, we explore the power of taking the pressure off, letting go of expectations that don’t serve us, and embracing where we are right now by honoring the season that we're in.

Choosing to live this way has removed SO much of the overthinking, judgment, and second guessing that used to be a regular part of the narrative in my brain. It has created WAY more inner peace and inner calm, and has helped me reach a place where I feel grounded and confident most of the time.

Increasing Your Personal Magnetism

Thu, 21 Sep 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Developing calm, clear confidence takes time. We often allow our identities to be created for us by past experiences of trauma or conditioning. If we want to become the most magnetic versions of ourselves, we have to figure out how to fully embody the future selves we aspire to be. You’ve probably heard the phrase “fake it ‘til you make it.” I prefer, “embody it until you become it.” In this episode, I’ll show you how to do just that. By taking radical responsibility for our lives, we can become more magnetic, attracting fulfillment and success to ourselves and the people around us.

Building Fulfilling Relationships w. Chris Esquivel

Thu, 24 Aug 2023 12:42:00 +0000

In this episode, I’m joined by my husband Chris Esquivel for a conversation on what makes our relationship tick. For a long time, I was afraid of settling down. Now, I’ve learned that so much of that fear came from cultural expectations about what marriage could and should be. With mutual respect (and a lot of practice communicating), we’ve managed to keep space for the things that bring both of us to life individually, while building a secure and comforting foundation together.

Transformation from the Inside Out: Uncovering Your True Self and Reclaiming Your Power

Thu, 23 Feb 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Do you want to reclaim your own true identity and authentic power against all the roadblocks that have been put in the way? Well, in this episode, I’ll be highlighting the compelling power of transformation from the inside out and how you can find your true self.

Living from the inside out means making decisions that come from within and rejecting the pressures of society, family, media, etc. Whilst living from the outside in is how we've been conditioned and taught, but it's not helpful and can lead to feeling uninspired and lost. Living from the inside out is an act of rebellion and takes courage, but it allows us to discover our authentic voice and make choices that are right for us, and in this episode I aim to help you transform yourself from the inside out.
