In today's podcast episode, we'll do a catch-up episode focusing on the cycles of personal development. Lay speaks about the different ways we develop in different cycles. Sometimes our life is more inward and we are focused solely on ourselves; other times, we have outward events that tend to influence how we show up for ourselves. Highlighting the differences allows us to appreciate both times especially when you are in your glow-up journey and get into the ebb and flow of life.

Note: This episode is the first to be recorded in September. I am doing the best I can to get back into posting so it may take some time to get back into the flow of content creation. I apologize for not having a consistent upload date.

In this episode, we are discussing self-trust. By definition, it is about having faith in yourself and the decisions you make regardless of the outcome. Surprisingly, this is an important aspect of self-love and intentional living, but a lesser spoken-about aspect in the wellness community. We are covering what it is, how it relates to self-love, signs that you may distrust yourself, and how it influences your journey to intentional living.

Note: This episode was pre-recorded in June. I thought these would come out in July / August but with a lot of changes happening, I had to push it back until this month. I wanted to continue the series but since then new episodes have been recorded making this the closing to the intentional living series.

After last week's episode which was focused more on letting go of what isn't in your control (the timeline of your life), this episode is more about what is your control aka choosing how you want to live your life and choosing when you want to shift to something. Lay shares her own experience with slow living and how being in the slow pacing of life gave her clarity on her next steps. Intentional living is when you live a life of choice and value and Lay shares how she knew it was time to do things differently to shift seasons. This is just the start of the mini-series of intentional living.
