Four questions that cut through overwhelm, prevent resentment, and keep your business and life aligned with your actual capacity.

What if the reason you feel overwhelmed isn’t a lack of discipline, but a lack of capacity? In this powerful solo episode, I’m inviting you to lead your life like a calm, regulated CEO. Not from hustle. Not from force. But from safety, presence, and nervous system support. So many women are trying to build big lives on exhausted systems, then wondering why everything feels hard. Today, I’m breaking down the shifts that help you expand your capacity, regulate your nervous system, and lead yourself with clarity and power.You’ll learn what capacity actually is and how your nervous system shapes what you can hold, the key difference between discipline and regulation, and the CEO Reset model for coming back to calm in the moments you feel overstimulated. I’ll also share the three daily rhythms that create sustainable energy, the boundaries that protect the CEO within you, and the core truths to anchor into every day, especially if you’ve been feeling snappy, scattered, touched-out, or like you’re constantly behind.Head to www.melissaambrosini.com/689 for the show notes.Join my weekly newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosini

Have you ever said yes when you meant no, held it together, and then felt flat or resentful afterward?That feeling is what I call the good girl hangover.In this episode, I share what the good girl hangover really is, why it sneaks up on so many women, and how the pattern quietly pulls you away from your truth. We explore the subtle signs you’re in a good girl season and why overgiving often feels safer than being honest.I also walk you through three simple but powerful shifts to help you step out of people-pleasing without guilt, self-judgment, or swinging into rebellion. These shifts bring you back into self-trust, clarity, and emotional safety.This conversation is a loving invitation to stop abandoning yourself to be liked and start choosing honesty instead.You don’t need to become harder. You just need to become truer.Head to www.melissaambrosini.com/687 for the show notes.Join my newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosiniGet Time Magic: www.timemagic.me

Your child’s brain is being shaped by a screen more than by you. And it’s happening in tiny moments you barely notice. The “just five minutes.” The quick reset. The quiet in the back seat. But those minutes add up. And they teach your child what comfort is. What connection is. And where to go when they feel bored, restless, lonely, or overwhelmed.In this episode, we get brutally honest about technology, children, and self-worth. We unpack what constant stimulation can do to a child’s nervous system, identity, and sense of belonging. And we talk about what builds real connection instead. I also share what it’s been like raising my children without screens, why we chose that path, and what it has taught me about boredom, creativity, presence, and trust. This isn’t about demonising technology. It’s about awareness and intention. Because our children don’t need more stimulation. They need more presence.

This meditation is an invitation to come home to who you truly are, not who you think you should be, not who the world has asked you to become, but the most grounded, expansive, loving version of you. Your highest self already exists within you; she is calm, she is clear, and she is deeply connected to her intuition and her truth. In this episode, I guide you through a gentle yet powerful meditation designed to help you embody that version of yourself right now, not someday, not when you’re “ready,” but today. This is a practice you can return to whenever you feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, and it’s especially supportive if you’re calling in more alignment, confidence, self-trust, or inner peace. Find a quiet space, get comfortable, and allow yourself to fully receive as you move through a grounding practice to settle your nervous system and arrive in the present moment, a guided visualisation to connect with your highest self and her energy, an opportunity to embody clarity, confidence, and calm at a cellular level, gentle prompts to anchor this version of you into everyday life, and a feeling of deep nourishment, alignment, and inner safety.Head to www.melissaambrosini.com/684 for the show notes.Join my newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosini

Feeling disconnected from religion… yet deeply drawn to something more? Curious about Jesus, but blocked by the language, the dogma, or past experiences? This isn’t about believing the “right” thing. It’s about remembering the truth beneath it all. In this powerful episode, I sit down with spiritual teacher and bestselling author Marianne Williamson to explore Jesus as a mystic, love as a practice, and what spiritual awakening really looks like in modern life.Marianne shares how to move beyond words like God or Jesus if they feel activating, and instead connect with the universal principles that sit at the heart of all true spirituality. We talk about the current state of the world and the inner work it’s calling us into, why living your values matters more than preaching them, and how discipline and devotion can become anchors for anxiety and emotional overwhelm. We also explore parenting by embodiment, simple daily practices to stay connected to spirit, and what inspired Marianne’s midlife awakening and latest book. If you’re yearning for deeper meaning, less fear, and a love-based way of living that feels inclusive and real, this conversation will open something inside you.Head to www.melissaambrosini.com/683 for the show notes.Join my newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosiniGet Time Magic: www.timemagic.me
