Welcome back to another episode where we dive deep into the excitement of attending the Jonas Brothers concert, the nostalgia of Disney Channel shows, and the thrill of music festivals.

Join us as Steph, our special guest, shares her experiences and memories of going to concerts and the magic of being up close to the stage. Whether you're a Jonas Brothers superfan, a concert enthusiast, or just love a good chit-chat, this episode is packed with stories and laughter.

Welcome back to another candid episode where I'm talking about the real struggles of consistency and vulnerability. Building on our previous conversation, this week's episode is all about dreams, passions in flux, and grappling with the fear of falling short of expectations. I've come to understand that there's no universal formula for success, and I'm fully embracing the beautiful chaos of growth.

Remember Kylie Jenner's "realizing stuff" quote? That's the theme of this year – realizing things, making strides. Now, let's talk business. Photography, branding, education – my creative journey. Evolving, finding balance – it's been a process.

Entrepreneurial success isn't linear. I'm sharing my real-time journey, the ups, and the downs. It's not easy, and that's okay. Take Selena Gomez as an example – multi-passionate pursuits are valid. She's proof that we can be multi-faceted beings, pursuing different passions. Your journey doesn't have to be one-way traffic.

I also dive into pop culture. "The Summer I Turned Pretty" – Team Conrad or Team Jeremiah? I've got thoughts.

DM me your thoughts and opinions. Vulnerability is our strength on this journey. Stay tuned for the next episode – who knows where it'll take us? Keep realizing stuff, babe!

I unintentionally took a summer break, but I'm back and ready to spill the "tea" on where I've been, what's been going on, and what's ahead. Just like Kylie Jenner once said, "I feel like every year has a new energy. And I feel like this year is really about, like, the year of just realizing stuff. And everyone around me we're just like realizing things." Like that's literally me hahaha

From juggling my photography business to managing my education account, it's been a wild ride of realizing things. I'll let you in on how my photography brand went through a major transformation, from conforming to my own artistic path to finding my groove in a new city. Plus, I share how I realized that simplifying my content creation was the key to finding balance.

I also dive into the book that sparked a perspective shift in me and how I'm embracing new beginnings. And, of course, we chat about some binge-worthy reality TV and the challenges of showing up after a break.

In this episode, I am going to give you a juicy update on my personal growth journey, specifically my experience with my own version of the 75 Hard Challenge. So, here's the deal - I haven't finished the challenge yet, but girl, let me tell you, I've been making some epic progress with my own set of rules, and I am so excited to share all the deets with you!

I'll spill the tea on how my version of the challenge has been transforming me both physically and mentally, and how I've been able to customize the challenge to suit my own unique needs and goals. I'll also let you in on some of my favorite aspects of the challenge, such as the emphasis on self-discipline and consistency.

Next, I'm diving deep into the topic of subconscious reprogramming, and how I've been using it to shift some of the negative thought patterns that have been holding me back. Trust me, babes, this is some next-level stuff. I'll share some of the techniques that have been working for me, and how I've been weaving them into my daily routine.

And let's not forget about my new planner! I am absolutely obsessed with this baby, and it's been a total game-changer in helping me stay organized and focused. I'll spill the deets on all the features that have been super helpful to me, and how it's been contributing to my progress with the challenge.

Lastly, we're tackling the concept of resistance, and how I've been pushing past it on my personal growth journey. I'll talk about some of the common forms of resistance that I've faced, and how I've been able to power through them to keep making progress towards my goals. Overall, this episode is packed with tips and tricks for personal growth, and I'm sharing all the ways I've been incorporating the principles of the 75 Hard Challenge into my own life. So, grab your favorite drink and get ready for some major inspiration, babes!
