Desti Domesticated

In  this episode I explain where my love of Bulbasaur and Pokemon comes from

In this episode I discuss the opportunities that the universe has provided me with and the choices I have to make in order to make the best out of them. This episode is about taking accountability over the decisions you make in life and how sometimes there's no clear answer on what is the wrong or right path

In this episode we touch on grief and the guilt that can sometimes be associated with losing someone close to you. I had the question "how long do we grieve after losing someone or something?" it is a question that I am still waiting to discover the answer to. I have only lost a few people and animals in my life but I find that even then their lives touch me often, even now.

In this episode I talk about some of the dreams I had when I was younger and talk about just how different they are compared to my dreams and goals now. It's funny looking back on the things we wanted to accomplish and see how different or similar they are to the way we think now. 

In this episode we discuss whether or not poc women are as desired as other women. Growing up in a world where Black women were never seen as a standard of beauty was heartbreaking and confusing but why? We are beautiful people who also deserve to be the vision of beauty. I also throw in a little advice about relationships and my personal experiences. Remember ladies we don't need to beg or ask for the attention of any man no matter the race!! except maybe Ross, HEY!!!!

In this episode we discuss the two books that I recently finished reading and touch on the common theme between them...girlhood. There are good things and bad things that we experience in girlhood and being able to read about how similar we can be even with living in different circumstances was so cool. It's always nice to have these episodes where I get to share the things I love with you!

In this episode we tackle the complicated question that is "love or codependency" as someone who was in a codependent relationship blindly for years it was really difficult for me to come to the conclusion that maybe it wasn't ever love. Sometimes we are so stuck believing that we cannot function with a relationship that we don't take that step back to properly analyze the situation. I am not an expert just a girl who has lived through the topics I discuss and learn as I go!

The world can be a harsh place, a place where we face the backlash of not fitting societies standard of beauty but why do we add on to this pressure by bullying ourselves along with them? In todays episode I wanted to turn it over to being a chubby woman in America and sadly what sorta negativity that holds. We have to understand that our value as people comes far beyond the way we are built 

there can be comfort in cartoons...

Have you ever worked somewhere that left you feeling completely different about certain views? After working in childcare there are a couple things that I swore that I would do differently for my kids.
