  • Episode 29: Humans Have Emotions and We're CRUSHING It!

    Join me in today's episode where we talk about mindset and emotions! As humans, we are blessed with this beautiful thing called emotions, and if we are not careful they will take over and not always for the best. I talk about how I have been struggling lately and what I personally have been doing to navigate these feelings.

  • [Hike Talk] Episode 28: What Happens in Vegas, Does NOT Stay in Vegas

    Come with me today while I talk about my trip to Vegas - I am breaking the Golden Rule. What happens in Vegas is NOT Staying in Vegas. It is so crazy how people that you know for such a short amount of time can truly touch your life, and today I am talking about my encounters with one of those people. Someone who I knew for 30 minutes but inspired me to start my Podcast and follow my dreams. We have all met that person and possibly even been that person to someone else!

    Let's talk about getting into your head and self doubt, so many of us experience this on a daily basis [myself included!].
