Becoming YOU Podcast

Consistency When Life Gets Busy | How I Keep Showing Up

Have you ever had something you really love doing, but life got so busy that you struggled to keep up?

That’s been me with this podcast.

In this episode, I’m sharing why I don’t want to give up on something I genuinely love, even while building my business, navigating a busy season, and trying to stay consistent with everything else.

I’m also sharing some of the things that have helped me keep going, from choosing discipline over motivation to batch creating, scheduling, setting reminders, and learning to prioritise what actually matters.

And as always, I’m sharing what has worked for me, while encouraging you to find what works for you too.

Shana Tova, lovely. 🤍

As we've entered a new Jewish year, I thought it would be a good time to pause and check in.

What is one thing you’re choosing to work on this year as you continue becoming the person you want to be?

In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve been learning about Emunah and Bitachon, especially trusting Hashem when I don’t know exactly how things will work out.

Sometimes we trust Hashem and still have those “what if?” thoughts.

What if it doesn’t work out?
What if it takes longer than expected?
What if it doesn’t happen according to my timeline? Then in G-d's timeline.

I’m learning to find certainty in Hashem rather than in perfect circumstances.

Do my part. Take the next step. Pray. Keep moving. And leave the rest with Hashem.

So, what is ONE thing you’re working on this year?

Maybe it’s your relationship with Hashem, your finances, confidence, relationships, rest, or simply learning to trust more.

Whatever it is, I hope this episode reminds you that you don’t need to have everything figured out before taking the next step.

May this new year bring you much bracha, simcha, peace, growth, and parnassah, and may Hashem guide you through every step of your becoming.

If you're a young Jewish woman thinking about love, dating, marriage, and your future... when is the "right" time to start your search?

And what should you actually be doing now?

This episode is a continuation of my previous Q&A, where I answer questions about relationships, love, marriage, dating, age, values, and preparing yourself for the future.

I share what I've been learning throughout my own journey toward becoming halakhically Jewish, including some of what I've learned about Jewish dating, dating with marriage in mind, Shomer Negiah, knowing your values, and being intentional about the kind of home and relationship you hope to build one day.

But this isn't me saying, "You must do things exactly this way."

I'm sharing what I've learned and what has helped me think differently about relationships, especially when the world around us can make love, dating, heartbreak, and marriage feel confusing or frightening.

My biggest message? You don't have to rush.

Use this season of your life to know yourself, build your character, understand your values, develop your livelihood, grow closer to Hashem, and become that woman you want to be.

When the right time comes, you can approach Jewish dating with intention and faith rather than fear.

For more information about Jewish dating and relationships, I also mentioned JewishWomen.org in the episode as a resource for learning more.

And if you have a question you'd like me to answer in a future episode, send it through my links. I'd love to hear from you. 🤍

What does it actually mean to discover your purpose?

And how do you figure out what Hashem has gifted you with, especially when you're still young and trying to understand yourself, your future, and where you're going?

In this episode, I answer a series of questions from a young Jewish woman about discovering your purpose, identifying your natural gifts and talents from Hashem, setting meaningful goals, and becoming successful in life.

I share some of the things that have personally helped me understand myself better, recognize the things I naturally gravitate toward, and take small steps toward the person I want to become.

This is not me saying I have everything figured out. I'm still becoming, too. 🤍

I'm simply sharing what I've learned so far and what I hope can help someone else who might be asking the same questions.

If you're a Jewish teenager or young woman wondering, "What am I here to do?" "What am I actually good at?", or "How do I even begin?", I hope this conversation gives you somewhere to start.

I'd also love to hear your thoughts after listening. 🤍

Friendships change. And that's okay.

Sometimes they become stronger.
Sometimes they become quieter.
And sometimes... we simply outgrow them.

In today's episode, I'm sharing a very personal story about one of the hardest boundaries I've ever had to set.

I didn't walk away because I hated the person. I walked away because I had reached a point where I needed to respect myself, honour the boundaries I had communicated, and trust that choosing peace was the right thing to do.

I talk about:

🤍 How to recognize when a friendship no longer feels healthy

🤍 Why repeatedly ignored boundaries matter

🤍 Letting go gently instead of holding onto resentment

🤍 Choosing self-respect without creating unnecessary drama

🤍 Trusting Hashem when making difficult decisions

This isn't an episode encouraging you to cut people off.

It's simply an invitation to reflect on the relationships in your life and ask whether they're helping you become the person you're trying to be.

Sometimes the most loving thing you can do—for yourself and for someone else—is to walk away with kindness instead of bitterness.

💬 I'd love to hear from you:

Have you ever outgrown a friendship? What helped you navigate it with such grace?

See you in two weeks, lovely. 🤍

Have you ever looked back and realized a dream you once cared so deeply about has slowly faded into the background?

I have felt that way too,

It's awful, but it doesn't have to be for long...

In this episode, I share a few personal dreams I almost let disappear, the Jewish stories and teachings that encouraged me to keep believing, and why I've decided to pursue those dreams again instead of letting them quietly die.

We also talk about:

✨ Revisiting forgotten dreams

✨ Why fear isn't a sign to stop

✨ Taking small, courageous steps instead of waiting for perfect timing

✨ Trusting Hashem while doing your part

✨ Finding mentors, guidance, and community along the journey

If you've been feeling discouraged, stuck, or like you're running out of time, I hope this conversation reminds you that your dream is still worth fighting for.

One small step today is better than waiting another year.

💜 I'd love to know:

What's one dream you've decided not to give up on?

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

In this episode, I'm sharing my personal review of three of the most impactful books I've read so far this year.

These books challenged me, comforted me, and helped me better understand myself, relationships, boundaries, self-sabotage, healing, and personal growth.

The books featured are:

✨ The Mountain Is You — Brianna Wiest

✨ Set Boundaries, Find Peace — Nedra Glover Tawwab

✨ Attached — Dr. Amir Levine & Rachel Heller

This isn't a professional review—just an honest conversation about the lessons I took away from each book and how they've influenced my own journey of becoming.

If you're interested in self-growth, healthier relationships, emotional healing, confidence, boundaries, and understanding yourself better, I think you'll enjoy this one.

In this episode, I share some of the simple tools, habits, and routines that help me stay focused in work, life, and my day-to-day routine.

From using apps like Opal to creating to-do lists, writing things down in notebooks, putting reminders on my wall, listening to music, and building a gentle morning routine — this is a realistic conversation about productivity without pressure.

Not “hustle culture.”
Just small systems that help me stay grounded, focused, and intentional 🤍

Rest Is Not Laziness (Learning to Slow Down)

In this episode, we talk about the guilt many of us feel when we rest, slow down, or pause.

I share reflections on burnout, purpose, and why constantly pushing yourself can sometimes pull you further away from the life you’re trying to build.

Through a gentle faith-centered lens, this episode is your reminder that rest is not weakness, laziness, or failure.

Resting is a part of being productive too 🤍
