In this episode, I talk about living in fear. We limit ourselves to our truest potential, just from our thoughts. We've already planned out everything that can possibly go wrong, just from our thoughts. Fear is what keeps us from accomplishing our goals and more. By being part of a community, we have support, encouragement, and feel connected with like-minded people. It's important to surround yourself with people of the same interests. This podcast is a form of community. Thank you to everyone who supports and listens.

Mental Health is important because it affects everything. In this episode, it is encouraged to use the power of your voice. I am bringing awareness. I am using my voice. Mental Health Awareness Month should be focused on more than just 1 month. It should be a continuous act of learning, sharing, growing, and most importantly being aware. You never know who needs to hear your story.

In this episode, not only do our experiences shape the person we become, but our experiences teach us lessons. Every lesson is a wake-up call. However, it's usually the traumatic lessons that we remember most. Relax and take a moment to understand the lessons being taught. This is your wake-up call.

In this episode, I quickly share how we all experience anxiety. It is encouraged to address your anxiety and not let it control you. Of course, everything is easier said than done which is why it is important to find what causes your anxiety and when does your anxiety typically occur. It's important to notice when you feel less anxious, and when do you feel most in control? This is a difficult subject to address because everyone's level of anxiety is different. Your anxiety is valid and matters.

In this episode, I talk about the different phases of body image we all experience and go through. Most people refer back to their high school days (known as the 'glory days') because that is when we may have looked our best, or for some is when we looked our worst. Leading into adulthood is when we start to find ways to enhance our body, love our body, or become careless of our body. Body image is more than just size. Body image is a reflection of what we see in the mirror and we must value our body image.
