More Peace (Please!) Episode 9 – Finding Peace in Community (with Yogi Tochi)
How do *you* define friendship?
Who are you building with?
And what does your ideal community *really* look like?
In this episode of *More Peace (Please!)*, I’m joined by the radiant and thoughtful @yogi.tochi (instagram.com/yogi.tochi) for a heartfelt conversation on connection, belonging, and what it truly means to find peace in community.
Together, we explore:
✨ The unexpected beauty that can be found inside fear
✨ The difference between friendship and community—and why both matter
✨ Why we’re not here for gossip, cliques, or mean girl energy
✨ How to invite more depth and safety into your relationships
So text your bestie, light a candle, and let this be your invitation to reflect on who’s in your corner—and how you’re showing up for them, too.
Let’s build peace, together. 💛

![10. Girl, Heal Before You Crash Out Again. Finding Peace in the Uncomfortable Parts of Healing
Welcome to double digits! I cant believe were already on Episode 10 of More Peace (Please!)—thank you so much for being here. 🌿
This week, I’ve been in deep observation mode. Life has reminded me that healing isn’t always soft, trendy, or Instagram-worthy. Sometimes, healing means sitting in discomfort. Sometimes, it means facing the parts of ourselves we’ve tried to bypass with good vibes, green juice, and journaling.
In this episode, I’m reflecting on:
✨What happens when we age but don’t emotionally mature
✨Why wellness isn’t a trend, and how to spot when it’s being used as one
✨The power of emotional honesty in community and relationships
✨ And why—in this day and age—you can’t really be a hot girl if you’re not healing 💅🏽
We also get into:
✨How we love as a reflection of how much we’ve healed
✨The importance of mentorship and soft accountability
✨Why healed communities grow us better than any solo practice ever could
✨Learning to catch when youre trying too hard to be someone you’re not
This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt stuck in their healing journey, or unsure what the next step even looks like. Spoiler alert: its not more perfection—it’s more presence.
✨ So grab your tea, your journal, and let’s talk about healing that’s honest, unfiltered, and actually transformative.

![12. NEVER attach your self worth to a no - Finding Peace in Failed Plans (Part 2)
More Peace (Please!) Episode 12 - Finding Peace in Failed Plans (Part 2)
I’m joined by the brilliant Kacee M. King, a powerhouse in finance, education, and healing-centered leadership, for a heart-centered conversation on finding peace in failed plans.
From the lessons of a failed marriage to the freedom that comes with release, Kacee reminds us that peace isn’t found in perfection—it’s found in trust.
Together, we explore:
✨ Why striving doesn’t equal peace
✨ What failure can teach us about timing and self-compassion
✨ How rock bottom can become holy ground
✨ And why your goals don’t define your worth—your growth does.
We also talk about shifting from ego-driven planning to intention-led living, and how choosing peace sometimes means choosing to let go.
This one is for anyone feeling behind, uncertain, or like the plan isn’t panning out. There is still peace. There is still a purpose. And there is so much more ahead.
Listen now, and as always, ask yourself for more peace, please.
