I just got back from a trip to Morocco and Portugal. Traveling internationally during the COVID-19 pandemic has its own challenges that you may not experience when traveling domestically. From different entry requirements to new things to consider, navigating International travel during a pandemic was interesting. It is so easy to make one of these mistakes discussed in this week's episode, which could cost you money and time. That's why I wanted to share my observations, challenges, and tips for traveling internationally during COVID. Hopefully, this discussion will help you avoid making any of these mistakes during your next trip abroad.

Understanding the confusion between self-work and self-care can be the solution to why you're still feeling burnout and exhausted after doing self-care.

Self-love and self-care are hot topics. Sadly, I constantly see people mixing up self-love and self-care. It makes it real hard to incorporate these hot topics into one’s life if you don’t really understand the difference between these similar, yet different terms. I say this from my own personal experience of learning the hard way the difference between self-love and self-care.

As this week is our anniversary episode and my birthday, I wanted to gift you with the understanding of the differences between self-love, and self-care. When I was able to fully grasp the difference and understand why each is equally impactful to one’s overall wellness, that’s when I showed up differently and for the better. If this episodehelps only one person, that is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Topics discussed:
What is self-love and self-care
What are misconceptions about each
The difference between self-love and self-care
Tactical ways to foster self-love and self-care

Beyonce is more than a cultural icon or a fellow Virgo. Love her or hate her, she leads by example through her music, actions, and dollars that self-care is central to one's well-being and is more than being overly conscious of your body. If you listen closely, Queen Bey has been dropping self-care gems for years. In today’s episode of 'What Would Beyonce Do? Self-Care Edition,' we’re discussing how Beyonce deals with self-doubt, her go-to self-care activities for busy women, and her intentions for the next decade of her life.

Reiki has played a huge role in my sense of self-worth and my overall well-being. Yet it’s been one of my best-kept secrets. Not any more! Today I’m discussing everything you need to know to tap into this healing energy you didn’t know you needed in your life. What is Reiki? How does it work? Can it be done remotely or only in person? And what are my clients saying about working with me as a Karuna Reiki Master?

Mrs. Takata, a trailblazer in the Reiki community, once said, “I want Reiki to be as common as aspirin.” And that’s my mission as well. I have a deep desire to introduce this tool to as many people as possible. I also want to expand the number of practitioners by offering more classes. That's why starting in October I'll be teaching monthly Reiki I/II classes for the remainder of 2021 so that my students can learn how to use this healing energy for themselves in less than 48 hours.

For those who may think this is too woo-woo or not for them, I encourage you to shift your mindset. There are plenty of studies on the power of Reiki. It's also widely used in major hospitals like the Mayo Clinic, Stanford Medical Center, John-Hopkins Medicine, and many more well-known medical centers. Yet, sadly it's still this amazing healing secret that many in the Black and brown community have never heard of until today. Let's continue to spread the word and the healing in our community!

We live under so much stress and exhaustion because of systemic oppression and racism. Up until 2020 and the outspoken racial tension in the U.S.A., everybody was telling us this wasn't real. That was a lie.  What's worst, is when you'd seek out safe spaces to heal only to encounter that same feeling of oppression. Is decolonizing wellness the answer?

Dalia Kinsey and author of the upcoming book, Decolonizing Wellness: A QTBIPOC-Centered Guide to Escape the Diet Trap, Heal Your Self-Image, and Achieve Body Liberation, and this week's guest thinks it will help. But does it mean to decolonize wellness? And what does that look like? Join us in an open discussion on how we can begin to heal the wellness space and reclaim what is ours from a cultural and indigenous perspective.

Want to step completely into your personal power and stop questioning if you're where you “should” be?  If so, Human Design is an excellent tool to use and the next generation of self-discovery. The best way to describe Human Design is that it's like a mix of the Myers-Briggs personality test and astrology.

I wish I was an expert, but I'm not. That's why I invited two of Clubhouse’s Human Design enthusiasts, Sharon Kershner and Jessica Eguizabal to join me today. Together, they are giving a beginner’s guide on how to tap into your uniqueness using Human Design.

The Reiki precepts are a set of principles or mantras to help guide you in your daily life. And the great thing about them is that you don't have to be a Reiki practitioner to use them. Adding these to my daily self-care practice has made a difference in how I show up in the world. What's special or unique about the Reiki precepts is that there is something so spiritual and magical about saying these phrases in Japanese (and in English), which is why I wanted to share them with you.

What this practice has taught me is that it's great to have a self-care and spiritual practice. However, your healing is only as good as the energy and quality you bring to it. Using these 5 Reiki precepts has upgraded the quality and helped me strengthening my mindfulness muscles in such a major. You can get both the Japanese and English versions by going to the show notes.
