  • 18. finding 'your person' (you deserve better)

    'Nuff said. This is your sign to set your standards high. Know you are worth so much more than how a guy treats you. Know you deserve all of the commitment, reciprocal energy, and priority in the world. Know you are worth that kind of love. Tune in for this season's romance episode (it was inevitable). Today, I chat about my latest dating shenanigans, including how I put my foot down with a guy who didn't respect me enough to be with me, and about what I took away from the experience.

  • 16. building healthy friendships + setting boundaries

    Transitioning into a new era of your life (for me, young adulthood) entails redefining who you are, what makes you happy, and what your goals and priorities are. With all of this comes figuring out who you want to surround yourself with and what kind of energy you let into your life. In this episode, I talk about how I'm living the same life but so incredibly differently: I'm back at university in Edinburgh, where I once fell victim to immense amounts of peer pressure, FOMO, comparison, and judgment; I did not have a strong sense of self, nor was I able to properly set up my boundaries. Let's walk through how I overcame all of that, so you can figure out how to build yourself a healthy set of relationships, as is key to living the life of your dreams.

  • 14. financial wellness: conquering the budgeting scaries + uncovering my saving hacks

    Controversial opinion right now, but... staying dululu is not the sululu when it comes to your finances. I've had some big spends this week which brought me to sharing my thoughts on how I organise my finances as a student, and how I stay within budget despite living a wellness lifestyle. You can be 'that girl' without going broke. Tune in this week to find out how!

  • 13. your guide to becoming ‘that girl’: building resilience + embodying the growth mindset

    Besties, I missed you! I am so glad I was able to section off some time to release an episode, even if it's a little shorter this week. I noticed just how much of a community the Glow Up Gang is blossoming into, in that I definitely found myself craving that little dose of girl time. Episode 13 is more concise than usual, as I delineate the role that both resilience and the growth mindset play in manifesting the life of your dreams. This is your guide to becoming 'that girl', featuring the following: my fresh take on what resilience means and how to implement it in your life + a simple recap of the growth mindset in the context of the podcast's theme ["reframing the law of attraction"].

  • 11. entering a new era + embracing the epiphany of change

    Welcome BACK Glow Up Gang! Now isn't it so fitting that this podcast is themed around glowing up?? I am so excited to have you guys back on board for Season 2, which follows me on my own tumultuous young adult journey, filled (of course) with multitudes of change. In this episode, I talk about what it means to enter a new era, and how to fully embrace change. Together, we underscore the four facets of change: it is constant, it is gradual, it is empowering, and it is inevitably what makes life worth living. Follow along for the only therapy session you'll ever need (I'm just kidding guys: real therapy is so important and I need it too).
