Regardless of how you 'feel' about birthdays. Our birthdays are meant to celebrate another year of living. The negative mindset we all secretly have is thinking, we're not where we want to be at this age. Most people use this specific day as a reflection and summary of their entire year. In this episode, I share the positives of how I use a highlighted topic to summarize my year. Let us celebrate together.

In this episode, we're going to talk about the importance of smalls wins. It's the little things that matter. Small wins add up to our biggest accomplishments. They may seem small to you but they're so much bigger than you think. It's time we learn how to acknowledge our small wins.

In this episode, I talk about a society living in a hustle culture mentality. We're always thinking about the next thing and never allowing our minds to rest. The hustle culture neglects rest and we think of rest as a privilege. It has blinded many of us to think we can do it all. The hustle culture should not be glamorized the way it is.

Aside from school, I realize I need structure in my life. Don't we all? In this episode, I share with you my social media addiction, and how I replace that with being creative. Planning, creating, presenting, and using my voice is how I create. Also sharing an update on graduate school.

Mental Health check-ins are a must. In this episode, I share graduate school life, future counseling services, and unexpected days ahead. It's okay to feel emotions that make you feel sad, overwhelmed, and anxious about the future. You are not alone.

Self-care isn't selfish. Let's be honest, self-care is very important but most of us neglect our self-care routines. In this episode, I share my simple morning and night routine that makes me feel like I have my life together. Everyone's routine is different, so I am hoping you find a routine that works best for you. Taking care of yourself isn't selfish, it's necessary.

In this episode, I talk about diet pills and working out 5 days per week. Do you relate to eating junk food and later "working it off"? This was me prior to 2020. Today I now have a healthy relationship with food. My simple healthy eating habits have given me more than weight loss, 21 lbs. down, 21 inches off. Small habits lead to big changes. 

Society is finally opening up again. Although certain things won't be back to 'normal' again. It's still important to embrace this new change and enjoy the little things coming your way. Not everyone has the luxury of having a safe space at home. Some of us are ready to go out and spend time with friends and loved ones. People are ready to travel, explore, and do fun things again. Moving forward, whatever is best for your mental health, do that. Even if it means taking a bit longer to adjust to the 'new norm' society.
