  • A Rose by Any Other Name Is…a Dahlia?
    Are you in “limbo” because you have released the old version of yourself without fully stepping into the new version? Do the stories you’re telling about yourself feel true? Or are there old beliefs that no longer resonate? Stories that you want to release and move away from? This is a VERY vulnerable conversation about how I got out of the “hallway of hell” and stepped into my Highest Self. https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw

  • “Mistakes”
    What is your relationship with Mistakes?
    Do they feel scary? Permanent?
    Do you allow yourself to make mistakes? Are you misidentifying CHANGE as a mistake? In this week’s episode, I invite you to inspect your relationship with mistakes and perfectionism & lean more into experimentation rather than rigidity.

  • What Are You Leaving on Your Plate?

    What are you telling the universe that you’re not interested in?


    Remember that we are CONSTANTLY communicating with the universe. Ask yourself "what am I telling the Universe that I like through my actions?"


    If the Universe looked at what we were interacting with as an indication that we wanted more of that thing- what would we be signaling that we want more of? What would the Universe think that we enjoy? What message are we sending to the Universe about what we want?


    I so often learn through my son-sometimes it feels like he teaches me more than I could ever teach him, and this week was no different. He helped me realize that the Universe assumes that what I engage with is what I like, and leave what I don't.


    In this episode I break down what message we are sending to the Universe about our desires and encourage you to get intentional. Whether you do this in as a full-on vision board, or just write down a quick list, I encourage you to be specific about what you do like and what you don't.


    And figuring out what you want is only half the battle (although it is a vital first step), the most important factor when manifesting your dream life is to send focus to those things and take actionable steps that are in alignment with the things that you want.


    Remember, "where focus goes, energy flows."


    Where has your focus been? Are you happy with the thoughts that have been sending out signals to the Universe about the kind of life that you want to live? If so, keep it up! Have a moment of gratitude to yourself for staying in alignment with your dreams.


    And if not-simply forgive yourself for getting off-track and reconnect with your purpose. Recommit to your goals. Reenergize your routines and connect back to the habits that are in alignment with that of your Highest Self.


    And remember that you are not alone on your journey. Healing can be such a lonely journey, and the isolation can feel unbearable, but it is important to remember that so many people feel exactly the way you do. I am here as a resource always, and if I don't know how to help, I am committed to finding someone who can.


    I love you always,

  • Facing the Grief
    Grieving during the holidays was definitely not what I expected—it was definitely much more difficult than I anticipated. But we did it. We made it through. (Not without kicking and screaming and numbing—but we did it nevertheless). I didn’t want this podcast to focus on grieving and sadness, but I have to be honest about where I am, so this episode is just a little update about where I am at on my journey of losing a parent, the “mistakes” I’ve made through the process, and what adjustments I am making to move forward with healthier coping mechanisms. Being patient with myself is not something that comes naturally to me, so if you’re like me, I want to encourage you to give yourself a little more space to be a human. And to remember that we can hold two emotions at once—the sadness we feel about our loss, and the inevitable happiness that we will feel again because we are still here. We are still moving forward, and I think we are actually honoring our loved ones by not giving up, but continuing to find joy in the moments that we can. I love you all so much, and I’m always here for you. You are not alone. xo, dahlia

  • A Year in the Life
    As I looked back through my year, I wanted to give as much focus (if not more) to the good times as I did the “bad.” And as difficult as this year was, I had so many positive aspects to focus on. I give a difficult update that I have been avoiding sharing, but I didn’t want it to be the focus of the episode—not this one at least. And I want to thank all of you for being so supportive. I am really grateful for everything that has happened this year, the easy and the hard. If you are struggling and need to talk, please always feel free to reach out, and if I can’t help, I’ll find someone who can. All the love, dahlia https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw

  • If My Dream Life Was a Snake, It Would’ve Bitten Me
    This week’s episode covers a wide range of emotions as I update you on the good and bad of what’s been going on with me lately—but the overall theme that I want you guys to take from this episode is that when we focus on the good, it carries us through the difficulties that we are facing. I want to give a little trigger warning here, because I do discuss some pretty heavy topics, but again—I want the focus to be on the idea that our dream life could be happening RIGHT NOW and if we don’t tune into it, we could miss it. I want to thank all of you guys for your continued support as I navigate this difficult time in my life. And I want to really emphasize that despite it being one of the hardest things I have ever gone through, I have also been overwhelmed by the beauty of my life. I have made the decision to ACTIVELY focus on the positive and the beauty, but also remind you that it’s okay if you are going through something right now that feels too heavy to see the bright side. Grief is such a roller coaster of emotions, and I have definitely had really dark days where it doesn’t feel like I have anything to be joyful about; but again I want to encourage you to find even the smallest flicker of joy and send all of your energy and awareness to that and allow yourself to be amazed by how your life will change. I am sending you all so much love and gratitude. Always remember that you are not alone, and I want to build a community of support & I know that starts with me.

  • Vulnerability: Binge or Cringe

    Being vulnerable may seem like my strong suit—but this episode gives an example of how and why I struggle to open up to the people in my life. Being open is terrifying. We run the risk of being hurt; but this episode covers why it’s important to open up EVEN IF we get hurt. And it's not only about opening up once—but staying open even after we get hurt.

  • Dedication vs. Commitment
    This week’s episode is about the difference between dedication and commitment. The two words are relatively synonymous, however there’s one small distinction—passion. When passion is involved, you will find yourself coming back to something regardless of how difficult it is. We do things not out of obligation, but out of inspiration. I encourage you to check in with your commitments & decide if you want to rededicate yourself to them. Maybe you took a break, and that is OKAY—but love and passion for that thing, that task, is going to be what keeps bringing you back; and I encourage you to revisit that thing you have put on the back burner and make it a priority once again. As always I love you guys so much! https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw

    What are my beliefs? Where did they come from? Are they serving me? And what would I like my beliefs around love to look like moving forward?
