Another one in the books! This is a solo episode where we Do the kind thing because we don’t know! We don’t know someone’s struggle(s), we don’t know someone’s history, we don’t know the how of someone’s situation and sometimes all we have to do is be kind. Be empathetic. Be understanding and still choose kindness. It usually costs nothing to be kind and even when it does, if you–even if I–have it to give, let’s give it. The world would be such a better place when we all remember that we all need somebody, we all need an act of kindness because we all have bad or off days. Life does not hold punches, she does her thing when she wants to and sometimes we end up in circumstances we didn’t foresee and now we are the person that needs an olive branch. We are the person seeking solace and not judgement. I really hope you were able to grab a gem or two in this episode, but if nothing else I hoped you enjoyed the good vibes!

And the season is off to a great start with this second episode! I will forever say this: connecting with my people and editing this one reminded me again why I do this podcast. I get the honor of connecting with my girl Tanisha about the Beauty of Aging. Her and I already said we knew this episode was going to be a banger but I don’t think EYE realized how needed it and FIRE it would be. The gems dropped in this episode?! Pleassseeee be sitting down ready to catch them! The honesty and vulnerability in this episode I hope touches a listener and lets them know AGING is beautiful and every day is a gift for us to do better. As I always say, I hope you all are able to catch a gem or two, and if nothing else, enjoy the vibes.

Season NINE is officially upon us and I am SO excited for this season, family! There’s so many things that I hope I will be able to share with you guys through our usual honest conversation and good vibes! I am shaking the HonestlyHelen podcast up just a bit with a new segment (name TBD) and less guests which I get into in this introductory episode for Season Nine. All in all, I am so excited to be back recording and looking forward to the new season! As always, I hope you were able to pick up a gem or two, and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes. Until the next episode!

So thankful I am the host of my own podcast & can make last minute pivots about topics. I had a topic planned and then I saw something that shifted my entire focus and I decided *boop*, new topic, in that moment! On this episode of talking life honestly, we are talking about being grounded. Life is always throwing a curveball at us and the more we understand ourselves, the more confident we feel in the decisions we have to make, and even ones we don't feel so confident in making, there's an understanding in that. I really was in a flow this episode and for it to be random validated myself which in itself was a full circle moment for the episode! As always, I hoped you were able to snag a gem or two, and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes.

DISCLAIMER: HUMAN EPISODE. Listen at your own risk, LOL.

This episode is everywhere and in the same place, at the same time. Thank you in advance for deciding to listen. <3. Nonethelesss, I hope you were able to still gather a gem or two and if nothing else, able to appreciate the honesty of the vibe in this episode.

Another one in the books and you know what? I may be getting the hang of solo hosting, I’m not hating it as much. On today’s episode I talk about the way we show our change is through actions, and not just actions, consistent actions. The human experience is so vast that I doubt we are even remotely close to understanding how to really exist as efficiently as we could because we place limits on ourselves. We think too much about how the world perceives us versus how we perceive ourselves and how that impacts the way we experience life. Change is challenging. Change can be hard. Change has no bounds; it is not constrained by time, only our mindset. As always, I hope you were able to pick up a gem or two this episode, and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes!

Another Monday, another episode! Whew, is it just me or is time flying like there is no time for anything?! Aye! Nonetheless, time or not enough time, on this episode of Talking Life Honestly, we talk showing up! There was an incident that happened that made me just think of how we show up as people. How does how we show up impact where we show up? What does it look like when no-one is watching? When is everyone? The message is always the same for me: show up authentically and show up for you. As always, I hope you were able to pick a gem or two from this episode and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes!

Can I just say, these solo dolo episodes are a different type of recording for sure haha. I promise I am still having guests, just adjusting when I don’t. Nonetheless, in this episode I talk about life expectations from a general lens. As a woman who has some seasoning to her now, I can say one of the things about life is that expectations can get us in trouble. Especially if we aren’t clear about certain things out loud or with ourselves. Not many of us are mind-readers, and I would argue even mind readers don’t always read other people’s expectations clearly. I challenge you to understand your own expectations with yourself before having such high ones with others. As always though, I hope you enjoyed the conversation, and if nothing else, picked up a gem or two!

Digital Boundaries! Have you heard of it? Do you have any? This world is even crazier than it was before and it's being recorded in real time more than ever. Which means we have access to some pretty intense media and how we choose to consume that media is important. What you choose to watch every day with endless scrolling impacts the way you think which impacts the way you show up and we know that has an impact for sure. Being mindful of the quality of your algorithm or timeline is just as important as the quality of people you allow in your life as a whole. As always, I hope you were able to pick up a gem or two and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes.

I promise I am not playing in y’alls faces with these episodes 😩. February was an adventurous month and then March was here…and time got away from me; so instead of allowing stressing about the late-ness, I embraced it...and maybe a little too long, apologies. Nonetheless, BACK and with the same honest energy and wanted to share some insights or epiphanies as one may call them during my absence. I hope you were able to gather a gem or two, and if nothing else, enjoyed the vibes.
