You know what's freaking empowering to say?! That stress CAN be managed 🙌

Just like anyone, we both have our own shit but through the years have found tricks that help ease our minds, and ground us when we feel like we're spiraling.

Basically, this is just your daily reminder to take a big, deep breath! 

Carry these tools with you, and remind yourself that's it's all gonna be okay!

So let's get cozy, and come hang with us- you got this, Boo!

Welcome Back!

Because we can’t physically go to a club, you’re invited to our ours virtually!

We talk more about our mediation practices and coping skills than cocktails and dancing on the bar…but we promise it’s still fun.

Did we just say that?! 

Trust us when we say that you are not alone in feeling burnt out, anxious, and ready to feel a sense of normalcy. We're right there with you while we ride this out together.

Always remember, you are far more resilient than you can even imagine, but if you are just straight up having a tough time - we are here for you!

So grab your beverage of choice, and come hang with us!

Welcome Back!

I think we can all agree Nurses are the real MVPs, and this world would absolutely suck without their care, compassion, and selfless nature.

What Mon has witnessed and experienced is truly one of the backbones of why Girls Gone Woke came to be.  

She covers how she learned to navigate juggling normal life vs life in the ER, working through a pandemic, burnout, and most importantly, coping strategies to make sure the trauma that she sees at work is handled in a manner that will allow her to let go of all that is taken on.

I am personally dealing with a chronic disease; Moni treats them, and after seeing so many traumatic situations in the ER, we realized it’s so much deeper than putting a bandaid over a wound. 

It’s truly about getting to the root of the problem first. 

If you know a nurse, or are a nurse - first of all thank you for all you do - we see you! Secondly, take a listen, and please share. Life is so much better when you know you’re not alone.

Did I say nurses freaking rock?! Or do nurses freaking ROCK.

Have a wonderful week going forward, friends!

First off, if you're new to our channel - Welcome to our cozy little space on the Internet. 

We realized we have some new faces around here, so let us start out by saying - Hey, Boo! 

We're two lifelong besties who are on a mission to live more presently, dig a little deeper and give this thing called life all we've got. 

We've learned along the way that being a human-being can be messy, which is why at GGW we're here to uplift, keep it real, and share the knowledge we've learned on our own self-awareness journeys. 

With that being said, join us this Sunday as we keep things light by playing a little fun "This or That" self-love edition. 

Come often, and stay awhile because we absolutely LOVE having you here.  

Here's to a kick ass week ahead, and a community that F*ing rocks.

Okay, we've all heard the sentiment "faith over fear" but damn it can be hard to put our money where our mouth is.

We talk about our wake up calls, how being more aware of our fears helps us to let them go, and what faith means to us.

This topic is such a beautiful, and abstract one because faith is so deeply personal to our lives, and individual stories. Just know whatever you believe in, or whatever brings purpose and fulfillment to your life - we are here for! 

The game changer, and the common thread that we have come to the realize is that having faith for us is truly about trusting the process for our life, and whoa have we found comfort there.

Sending you deep breaths, and all the peace this Sunday as we navigate through all the ups and downs together.

P.S. we missed you!

Hey GGW friends!

Fears. We all have them, but it seems like this is a topic that we rarely talk about in terms of where they come from, or what we do to help cope with them.

It’s vulnerability at it’s deepest level as the root cause of fear are all feelings that we as human beings try and avoid, such as: loneliness, shame or lack of control. 

We’re both getting up close and personal with our own fears, and hope that by talking about them - we can bring comfort to you.

Here’s to normalizing the vulnerability that comes with them, because whoa is that shit real. 

Thanks again for hanging with us, and a big cheers for a new week ahead

In honor of #nationaldiabetesawarenessmonth this week Monny interviewed me on what my experience has been like living with Juvenile Diabetes. 

Yes, we cover the #beteslife but we actually found that there are SO many parallels that could benefit you no matter where you are in your own life journey. 

We talk about the ways in which we cope with our own struggles, and how we move through them when they come our way. 

Whatever battle it is you are facing, we hope this episode meets you wherever you are, and reminds you that you are never alone. 

We got you, boo!

Welcome back! Join us this Sunday as we share some more tidbits on how to get the f*ck out of unhealthy relationships.  

We have had our fair share of unhealthy relationships in the past (clearly, as this relationship topic had to get divided up into three episodes 😅), so we thought we'd share some more tips we learned along the way to let go of the wrong guys.  We cover how to let go of narcissists, lessons we learned, and how to start valuing yourself so you can attract better. 

We truly hope you find the courage to let go of all toxic people in your life and know that you are worthy of people who uplift you and treat you right. Sending you love and happiness for today and this week ahead. 

See you next Sunday!

Welcome back to GGW, and whoa what a week it’s been!

There’s no better time than now to chat about what it’s like to be an empath during this rollercoaster ride of 2020.

We both know too well what it’s like to take on others energy as our own, to be a confidant to many, and to live in a world where others may deem us as “highly sensitive.”

Is this you, too? If so, welcome to one of the greatest gifts you can have, but it’s also a gift that requires self-reflection, the ability to let go, and the awareness to know when it's time to set some healthy boundaries.

We’re keeping this episode nice and light as we send all of our own healing energy your way.  Trust us when we say after this long and emotional week these reminders may be just what you’re looking for.

P.S. “The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds." — Dalai Lama.
