  • Sarah Smiles | How to Start Journaling

    Journaling is one of those things that seems like a made up thing that only people in rom-coms do... however if I had to pick a genre of movie that correlates to my life I would definitely say it parallels a rom-com. Which is likely why I have been journaling for a majority of my life. I can not think of a single point in my life where I did not have a journal in my nightstand. In this episode I talk about how I got into journaling, how I structure my entries and my tips/advice on how get started journaling.

    I am still not drinking and that's raised a lot of questions and concerns from my fellow 20-somethings. I mean I get it- we're in our 20's and were supposed to go out and get drunk and make stupid choices. Buuuuuttttttttt...... Let me be the first to admit that I don't need alcohol to make stupid decisions. Nor do I need alcohol as a "social lubricant," and maybe you don't either. In this episode I talk about why I CHOSE TO quit, how it affected my social life, and how its impacted me personally.
