Growing Minds

One of my favorites to record so far! Everyone has their magic tips to have a "balanced" life... but I believe mine are the realest, most practical, and leave the most room for error (because we all know life's FULL of that). Not only will this episode ground you, but I think it will make you feel good about yourself, too. (I also reveal some sneaky good news about our life!) 

Welcome to the new weekly upload! And this one is packed FULL! I take my first crack at guiding a meditation for you... and I think I actually did a decent job! You'll hear a mindful-noting meditation and a compassion meditation, which you can do in the same sitting or break them up into two. Don't hesitate to come back to this episode at any time! My hope is that you'll walk away from this episode with a tool to use in the future and with a warm feeling of calm. 

You asked for it, you got it! This episode brings you some tips, tricks, and personal parables on how to be a decent housemate during these crazy times. None of it is rocket science, and believe me, I'm no expert! It's better to be aware and considerate rather than mindless and mean. Listening to this one will bring you some laughs, some human connection, and some helpful ideas. 

Releasing episodes weekly during isolation to keep your mind growing (and frankly, to keep mine growing, too). 

In this episode, I address the crazy concerns this world is currently facing. During this time, we are going to feel so many things. Guess what friends? Whatever you're feeling is okay. Allow yourself to laugh during these times! Allow yourself to cry. Care for yourself even better. Let go of expectations of self & others. Listening to this episode will bring you reassurance, peace-of-mind, and a story about me sobbing & smiling all in the same 10 minutes. Love you all!

In effort for a smooth transition, I decided to talk about movement in episode four! I'm not too sure our human bodies were made to sit still all day, even though all I ever feel like doing is watching TV! Here's a few of the simplest things I've done to manage to get off of the couch semi-regularly. This episode will bring you probably way too much rambling about my life and some really useful tips for yours!

I think too many times we forget that our body can run our minds without us even knowing! This one's all about listening to the signs your body gives you. We need to nourish it, love it, praise it, and soothe it. When your friend starts crying, you wouldn't just stand there! So let's not do that when our body cries for help, either. This episode's bringing you some very awkward truths and a very seductive commercial about a lemon.

Episode number two brings you an inspiring personal story, a cringy guided meditation, and more! In this one, I open up a little bit about my journey, and I empower you to overcome the flaws of yours! Nobody's perfect. We are all just doin' our best in life. This crazy little concept called mindfulness can probably help you do yours better! This one will bring you some motivation, giggles, and hope.

Dan Harris - 10% Happier

The first episode of the second season is all about...YOU! How do we navigate personal growth without knowing a little bit about ourselves as individuals first?! Oh, right. It would be really hard... So here I am bringing you my dorky approach to finding out what works for you - not everybody else. This episode will make you laugh, cringe, and feel a little more confident in who you are.

Get a feel for the new and improved Growing Minds podcast! In this short episode, I share the mission and vision for this season. I'll be speaking on topics like: gratitude, boundaries, movement, mindfulness, and more! These topics are so near and dear to my heart. I can't WAIT to get started. *Cue the funky music*

It's the final episode of season 1! This one took the longest to put together because I sifted through all of the episodes to bring you 10 of my favorite moments! This school year was quite a wild-ride, and I met so many amazing people along the way. The knowledge, humor, and experience coming from my guests was unreal. They all opened their hearts to us, and I'm forever grateful. Take a listen! I PROMISE you will feel joyful, reassured, and inspired.
