Summary

Ever feel like you're stuck in molasses with zero motivation, energy, or sparkle? Me too, friend. Let’s talk about how to get out of a slump

In this episode of Love, Happiness, and Success, we’re diving deep into that “meh” space we all land in from time to time. Maybe your house is a mess, your energy is flatlined, and your dinner for the third night in a row is fried takeout. Here’s the thing, slumps happen. And they are 100% resolvable.

I’ll be unpacking why these slumps sneak in, what they really mean, and most importantly—how to actually get out of them. I’m sharing science-backed strategies, personal stories, and the little mindset and habit shifts that truly move the needle.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have your very own slump-busting plan—and you’ll know exactly where to start, whether you need a mindset shift, a behavior reboot, or both. 

Timestamps:
00:00 — Slumps are normal (but let’s not stay there)
06:18 — How to spot your personal “uh-oh” signs
10:32 — Slump vs. Depression: What you really need to know
24:44 — Why slumps happen: burnout, transitions, and mystery fogs
31:55 — Lifestyle habits that quietly wreck your vibe
33:17 — Why trying to “feel better” first doesn’t work
34:24 — What to do instead (this changes everything)
42:51 — Create your personalized slump-busting strategy
52:28 — Quick wins: tiny shifts that make a big impact
57:54 — Your next steps to get back to YOU

If you’re ready for a real, lasting reset—come join me and my amazing team in the Clarity & Confidence Coaching Program. This is where the magic happens. Together, we’ll help you reconnect with your sense of purpose, build habits that actually support the life you want, and shift the unhelpful thoughts that have been keeping you stuck. It’s not about a temporary mood boost—it’s about creating true, sustainable transformation from the inside out.

Schedule your free consultation now and let’s start building your breakthrough together.

And, I’d love for us to stay connected! Each week, I drop a new podcast episode and share resources to help you create love, happiness, and success in your life. I also go live every Thursday on Instagram and Youtube to talk about the topic of the week and answer all of your questions. So check out the full podcast episode and join me on Thursday at 12pm MT / 2pm EST. I’d be so glad to see you!
