A Soft Place to Land

This week, your no-BS big sis Marizsa and I talk about the messy, non-linear process of self-trust—what it actually takes to evolve and how to not let past versions keep you stuck.

we chat:

• Why documenting your journey matters—not for an audience, but for your past and future self.
• Sitting with discomfort instead of running from it and why outgrowing yourself will always feel a little awkward.
• Learning to separate your dreams, thoughts, and path from the noise of what you’ve absorbed from others.
• The underrated power of small promises—how the tiniest commitments can rewire your relationship with yourself.
• Looking at your past selves with compassion instead of cringe—understand that every version of you existed for a reason.
• The balance between discipline and grace—staying committed without beating yourself up when you slip.

At the end of the day, life is an experiment. The goal isn’t perfection, it’s curiosity—staying open, tuning into your inner voice, and taking the next small step forward.

In the second half of this 2-part episode, Elsa and I unpack about what it really means to embrace your weirdness and how that can change everything—the way you move through the world, how you connect with people, and learn to stop holding yourself back from life...

We get into:

❀ How Elsa realized she didn’t care what people thought anymore and the way that shifted her anxiety.

❀ Focusing on small, daily changes instead of fixating on long-term progress and final results.

❀ How stepping outside your comfort zone—whether that’s dancing in your room or talking to strangers— always opens up more opportunities for connection and connecting to life.

❀ That injuries, setbacks, and challenges can be blessings in disguise that force you to slow down and listen to yourself.

This is an open conversation about showing up fully, taking up space, and letting go of the fear of being seen.

If you've ever held yourself back because of what others might think, this one's for you. ·ﾟ* ✧ ·ﾟ

In the first half of this two part episode, I sit down with elsa— who just moved from the UK to Australia to chase the sun and live her soul’s desire. We talk about what it really means to live yourlil self’s dream and how to navigate the big emotions that come with taking a leap into the unknown.

What We Get Into:

☆Your old life willalways be there—so why not go after what you want?
☆ How solo time, journaling, and self-healing habits help you meet yourself deeper.
☆How to use your morning routine to ground yourself for the day.
☆ Mind dumps & journaling prompts to process your thoughts and fears.
☆ The real work of self-love: forgiving yourself over and over again.
☆ Owning your intuition, your inner voice, and your witchy magic.

Elsa reminds us that even when homesickness or self-doubt creep in, you’re still living the dream your younger self once wished for. Give yourself grace. Accept yourself where you are. And know that you arealways growing.

We dive into the courage it takes to create, how experimentation fuels self-discovery, and why tuning into your feelings and surroundings is the ultimate spark for inspiration.

Whether you’re starting drafts, finding your creative community, or learning to radically accept yourself, this conversation is your invitation that creativity is yours for the taking.

it's that open awareness that offers acceptance to unfold.

Reflecting on 2024, the themes of personal growth, facing inner demons, and the importance of emotional processing are what shaped my year.

I share my journey of acknowledging people-pleasing tendencies, setting boundaries, and learning to accept and love myself through the spectrum of emotions. Vulnerably facing and validating the coping mechanisms no longer serving me.

As we begin 2025, I'm committing to embracing nature's cycles, letting go of guilt and shame, and standing my ground with a renewed sense of compassion, love, and emotional intelligence...

cheers my friends, to being well this new year <3

it has more to do with appreciating what's in front of your eyes; nature, your people, simple pleasures.

Alyx and I are back on the big island of hawaii, having our morning cacao and chatting about the power we hold in changing our perspective and training our brains to appreciate the small things as the big things.

serendipitous timing brought Awa and I together for dinner together one night and after a few joints and some philosophical questions later,, decided to record and share our discoveries on an episode ...

key points: 

~ be more concerned about how you see yourself. 

~ learn how to receive from others; in relationships, with your partner, at work. you deserve to be taken care of. 

~ lean into vulnerability because, well, that is the journey that is life, right? 

~ don't be afraid to share the depths of who you are **with the right people who deserve you.

~ (!!) and before you do that, ask yourself with a pen and journal; who are you? really?? without the expectations and labels... ponder it with a lot of love.

love YOU, mean it. (◡‿◡✿)

a friendly reminder, breakdowns will always usher in a breakthrough. So, after being forced to feel through it this week, I’ve come to these conclusions… 

If you too don’t know how to act these days, it’s okay to not be okay. you’re not ‘weak’ for feeling anything you’re feeling.

love you, mean it.
