In this episode, I sit down with the insightful Jerry Colonna to explore inner transformation, radical self-inquiry, and the power of self-compassion. Together, we dive into how true reinvention begins from within, often sparked by moments of personal suffering, and how recognizing our role in our own discomfort can lead to profound growth.

Jerry shares his wisdom on the crucial distinction between guilt and remorse, encouraging a compassionate lens for self-reflection. We also unpack how ancestral influences shape our behaviors and emotions, highlighting the importance of understanding our past with empathy rather than blame. Throughout our conversation, Jerry emphasizes that radical self-inquiry is essential not only for personal healing but also for effective, empathetic leadership.

If you’re ready to peel back the layers, embrace all parts of yourself, and lead with empathy—whether in your personal life or at work—this episode offers deep insights to guide your journey.

Are you ready for a reinvention? To uncover a more authentic, fulfilled version of yourself?

In this special episode I'm recording on my 49th birthrday, I’m reflecting on a transformative year of personal and professional reinvention. From navigating self-doubt to chasing audacious goals, I’m sharing 10 powerful lessons I’ve learned this year — and how they can inspire your transformation.

I explore how change unfolds gradually (until it doesn’t), the surprising risks of staying stagnant, and how taking action—even small steps—can build the confidence you need to dream big.

And I dive into why you don’t need to try and get rid of self-doubt, why your future is more important than your post, and how your mindset shapes your reality.

Reinvention is not about becoming someone new. It’s about becoming more of who you are.

Isn’t it time you spread your wings?

In this solo episode of my Tea with Nataly series, I explore the transformative power of making decisions from a place of hope rather than fear. Using a real-life case study of Anna, a nonprofit leader facing a pivotal career decision, I uncover how hope can open us up to expansive thinking and new possibilities, while fear tends to narrow our focus and highlight obstacles.

I share three powerful inner checks to help you assess your mindset when making decisions: Are you feeling expansive or constricted? Are you focused on possibilities or obstacles? And are you aligned with your purpose or caught up in ego?

We’ll dive into how a hopeful mindset isn’t just wishful thinking—it’s about believing in possibilities, aligning with your authentic self, and taking intentional steps toward your goals. If you’ve ever struggled to make a choice that feels both meaningful and true to who you are, this episode will guide you toward decisions that honor your values and potential.
