Your Life Practice
by Sara Eavenson & Leah CarverWelcome to the Your Life Practice Podcast. We are Sara Eavenson and Leah Carver, two sisters who are just trying to figure out what makes life feel good. Let’s face it, life can be pretty messy and uncomfortable. But in our experience, when we reframe Life as a Practice, we get better at BEING human. Join us for the conversation each week as we ask big questions, poke holes in our own theories, laugh out loud and get inspired by life.

Living Authentically with Lani Scozzari
55m · PublishedThis was one of our favorite conversations to date. We honestly kept getting goosebumps throughout. Lani is a wife, mother, poet, extreme marathon runner and one of our best friends.
She has just taken the big step of leaving the public school system so she can honor the calling of her soul to spend more time writing and to develop her coaching and public speaking practice. Lani is incredible at helping kids be heard and seen and helping parents to navigate healthy communication with their kids.
During the conversation we talk about:
- listening to the call of the soul.
- Showing up authentically and with integrity when life throws you a curve ball.
- Being able to stand in the messiness of it all with grace instead of shame.
All the while she shares incredibly vulnerable, real life stories in a way that feels empowering and revolutionary.
I can’t scream it loud enough - listen to this episode.

She has been exploring the interweaving of psychology and spirituality for over 20 years and is continually transformed and humbled by the process.
Kim received her undergraduate education from USC where she studied religion and psychology and discovered the world of transpersonal psychology. It was at this time Kim knew I wanted to pursue my masters degree and become a therapist. She also was introduced to the study and practice of yoga which has been a continuous presence and guiding force in her life ever since. She also knew she had a lot of life to live and needed time to discover more about herself before serving others.

After years of living in major cities and exploring many of the nooks and crannies in her own psyche she knew it was time to pursue her dream of being a therapist and began my studies at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco where she received her Masters’s Degree in Integral Counseling Psychology.

Making Difficult Decisions to honor Your truth
50m · PublishedIn this Conversation we talk with Local Celebrity Suzanne Boyd. Recently, there was an article in our local paper The Palm Beach Post called “I needed to belong to my kids.” https://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/20190512/mothers-day-suzanne-boyd-on-quitting-channel-12-i-needed-to-belong-to-my-kids
Suzanne made the decision after 20 years to retire from her career as news anchor on @CBS12 and move towards having a career that allowed her to be more present for her kids. We had a real conversation about hearing the call of the soul first as a light tap, ignoring that then louder and louder until it gets your attention. Having the courage to listen, even when that means you don’t have it all figured out.
Suzanne now runs Suzanne Boyd Productions https://suzanneboyd.com She is producing her own shows - What Your Friends Won’t Tell You( https://wyfwty.com ) with Shannon Thompson Jones, Licensed Psychotherapist and People of Palm Beach Podcast ( http://floridapodcastnetwork.com/portfolio-posts/people-of-palm-beach/ )

Kate Northrup on Doing Less
52m · PublishedSettle in for a this fabulous conversation we had with best selling author of Do Less: A Revolutionary Approach to Time and Energy Management for Busy Moms. Whether you are a mom or simply a busy woman, today’s chat was rich with information about how women like you can better know and support yourself in order to step in to your most powerful, creative, soft, intuitive, connected and gratifying life.
Are your beliefs limiting you?
23m · PublishedOn today’s episode we explore the common idea that very often in life we make choices for ourselves out of habitual thought patterns that dictate what we think we “should” do in any given situation. Rather than making decisions about what feels right for us or giving ourselves free reign to explore what it is that we actually want or need to do, instead we come up with all the excuses as to why we couldn’t shouldn’t or can’t do something - like go on a retreat, or have a truthful conversation, or ask for help or whatever the thing is for you.....
During today’s conversation Leah brings an example from her own life where she recently had an opportunity to take a week of downtime on retreat, away from her family and responsibilities. Although she was fully supported by all the family - her children included, she still had a really hard time committing due to her sense of duty to others and to her “to do” list. What we began to unpack as we chatted, is that Leah is not alone in having these self limiting beliefs. In fact we all have them and if we aren’t careful these can become the default place from which we make important decisions.
Are You a Human Being Or a Human Doing?
28m · PublishedTo BE human is to live fully in to what’s possible for you. So many of us live at the mercy of a seemingly never ending TO DO list. And we forget about what it means to BE our most present, rested, nourished, creative self. And we also forget about doing the things for ourself that allow us to be in that space of BEING.On this week’s episode of the podcast, we dive more deeply in to this idea offering solutions and our own experiences on shifting the DOING/BEING paradigm.
