In this episode, I’m talking about something that used to run my life: time anxiety. That constant pressure of feeling like there’s never enough time in the day. The constant overwhelm of feeling like you’re “behind”.

But everything starts to shift when you start telling yourself: “I have enough time"

This episode is all about the power of that mindset shift! How changing the way we talk to ourselves about time can ease anxiety, reduce stress, and help us move through our day with more calm, clarity & trust. I’ll also share simple tools and practices to help you reframe your relationship with time.

We’ll end with a short guided meditation to ground you in this belief and remind you that you’re not behind. And you are enough.

If you’ve ever felt rushed, overwhelmed, or like there’s never enough time… this episode is for you.

In this episode, I’m diving into a lesson I learned in therapy that changed my life; understanding the difference between fitting in and belonging, & why confusing the two can leave you feeling disconnected, unseen, and misunderstood.

Inspired by insights from Brené Brown’s Atlas of the Heart and lessons from my own therapy journey, I talk about why fitting in often means abandoning yourself, and how you can start giving yourself permission to show up as your true, authentic self.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to tone yourself down, stay quiet to keep the peace, or play a version of yourself just to be liked, this episode is for you. I’m also sharing practical ways to begin reconnecting with who you really are; especially if you’ve been hiding for so long that you’re not even sure anymore.

This is about rebuilding self-trust, honouring your truth, and finding the kind of connection that doesn’t require you to perform.

The themes of the Cancer New Moon: emotional healing, inner nurturing, home, intuition, and self-protection. It's a time to come back to yourself, check in with how you're really feeling, and tend to your inner world with gentleness and care.

Today we’re getting real about what the different stages of a healing or spiritual journey can look like when it comes to socializing, partying and even drinking alcohol. Do you have to be sober to be healing? Can wellness and partying coexist? I’m sharing my perspective from my experience throughout my personal wellness journey!

My intention with this conversation is to highlight that it's possible to celebrate life and enjoy social settings without compromising your spiritual beliefs or devotion to your wellness. And why you might also go through periods of self isolation. 

Are you celebrating life? Or escaping reality? We’re getting into why this answer matters the most. And most importantly, why all parts of yourself are equally worthy of being seen, heard & felt. Your journey does not have to look like anyone elses!

In this episode, we're discussing the concept of a "healing journey" with the gentle reminder of why there is no final destination for you to reach. My intention with this episode is to encourage you to take the pressure off of yourself and recognize that self-worth should not be tied to achieving specific goals or timelines. 

This conversation serves as a reminder that healing is about awareness, self-acceptance, and coming back to prioritizing yourself throughout the ebbs and flows of life. It's NOT about reaching perfection!

In this episode, part 5 of our Nervous System Regulation Series, we explore the vital role of connection and co-regulation. We’re breaking down the science of co-regulation, how trauma & stress can lead us to isolate, and why humans are wired for connection. Most importantly, I’m sharing signs you might be self-isolating and simple, intentional ways to build more connection into your life — even when it feels hard. Self healing is powerful, but connection is often the missing link that takes your healing, health & wellness to the next level.
