February 07, 2023 30. dry january is over... now what? why "sober months" don't work for me
This week's episode offers an opportunity for you to check in with yourself - how did dry January go for you? Did you succeed through the whole 30 days? Did you even attempt it in the first place? Now what do you do? Which side are you on - are you headed back into binge drinking or are you going to continue the ride of moderation / abstinence? There's such a big spectrum when it comes to what happens after periods of willpowered sobriety. I happen to live on the extreme side of the spectrum where the personal motivation and 100% reliance on my own inner discipline didn't work for me when it came to sobriety... and neither did moderation. If you can relate or you know someone who might, this episode is for you.

January 24, 2023 29. is it my anxious attachment or are we just not compatible? why i hate dating advice on social media
It's been a menty b type of week... or should I say chapter of life. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what's been upsetting me the most, I honestly think it's my addict brain trying to create a new mess for me to cleanup now that I have a stable foundation to stand on. I've made all these huge changes within the last two years - getting sober, moving to Colorado, starting a podcast, dating again... my brain thrives off of the big, the new, the shiny. But now that LIFE feels somewhat stable, now that I'm not moving again or switching jobs or in a relationship, I'M like now what?
It's so hard for me to find peace in the mundaneness of day to day. When there's nothing big to plan for or look forward to, I feel lost. This episode really highlights the way my true ADHD brain works lol. I jump from topic to topic like crazy, but if your brain has a hard time focusing on one thing at a time like mine does, this is the perfect episode for you :')
One of the main points discussed is how overwhelmed I am with trying to take all of the dating advice I see on social media & execute it all perfectly. It is so f*cking hard to be vulnerable and show all sides of me to someone while also maintaining healthy detachment. Like how TF are we supposed to let our guard down, let someone into our hearts and not be completely gutted when you find out you don't align as much as you thought you did AFTER you've already fallen for them?
That's the best I can do to sum up this episode, just know there's SO much more truth, vulnerability, and authenticity on the inside.
Love you all, mean it.

January 11, 2023 28. what in the mercury retrograde is going on? blocking exes & feeling stuck
Alright imma say it.. f*ck the haters who make fun of the retrogrades & moon cycles because this shit is reaalllll. The girls that get it, get it. I forgot to ground us & give an angel number this week, blame it on the retrograde LMAO - but for real, I've been feeling extra foggy and confused lately. In this episode, I talk about what mercury in retrograde means for us / what you might be experiencing, and how to work WITH the energy instead of fight against it. I also explain the full moon in cancer we had last week and how that energy might be affecting our moods, motivation, etc. Of course I give you my recent relationship tea about exes coming back around, how I feel about blocking exes (it's truly a hobby), but also what I've learned from rekindling a connection with a guy that I had blocked. DIssociating by blocking is necessary MOST OF THE TIME for me to protect my heart, but realizing how it hurts the person on the receiving end has made me put my blocking hobby into question... gotta listen to get all the deets ;)

Eeekkkk welcome my third special guest, Elena Smale, your self love healing hype girl! Elena helps women learn how to love & accept themselves unconditionally. In this episode we get honest and talk about the hard things - like faking orgasms, having sex when you want to say no, accepting that we never “fully heal”, understanding that who we are is what we attract, and A LOT more wisdom.
There is SO MUCH GOLD in this episode, it would be a disservice to skip this one.

September 27, 2022 23. daily routines, rituals & the art of self acceptance
Self love, body love, daily routines & rituals that I do (or don’t do), meal ideas, ALL THE THANGS!
Kicked off this episode with a lil life update on how I’ve been giving my power away the last couple months - let’s just say I got lost in the sauce…
For me, self love & staying consistent with a solid routine started very small. It started with self acceptance, it started with focusing on one habit change at a time. It started with me speaking the fucked up thoughts I had in my head out loud, one thought at a time.
I wish I could give you all the answers on how to get to where you dream of being - mind, body, and soul, but I can’t. There will never be a podcast, a book, an instagram post, or any advice that can give you the key to long lasting growth. It takes accountability and commitment to the work.
You deserve to receive love and support. I hope this podcast offers you a glimpse of that.
