taking breaks is essential to your mental and creative process, hence I took a month off lmao. but stumbling upon a video prior to filming this episode I wanted to discuss it here. speaking about the art of starting now rather later. the importance of being aware that yo have a creative spark in you that needs to be released rather pushed under the rug because you'll 'get into it later when you have time' girllll thats a dangerous game. time will continue to go on and you'll keep holding onto that thought, but whilst you're waiting... you'll see someone else has taken your spot or achieved more. not that you are in competition with anyone but yourself, but we both know that'll harm your ego... so you know xoxo get to work!

people have different approaches to their mentally exhausting day or week. are you the type to thug it out by working countless jobs and hours as well as hitting new goals in the gym everyday as a distraction from sitting with your thoughts and allowing yourself to be vulnerable? having a time and a quiet zone to reflect is essential to discovering inner peace, this doesn't necessarily mean a room lol, the gym could be someones hideaway and getaway, night drives could be someone else's form of expression and sanity. it all stems, just make sure everything is in moderation and you have a perfect balance. you'll be okay lovely.

surrounding yourself with great company and a great social media feed can sometimes lead to you having negative thoughts of comparison, to which you'll start to devalue your blessings that you take for granted.being able to accept the fact that what works for others and what others get may not have the same reception towards you is a skill you need to master and a thing you need to appreciate. its okay if all your friends reach a certain goal in life and you're behind. everything has a purpose and a reason, head over to one of my episodes where I speak about the beauty of delays and goals in life for more on that. accepting that disappointments is okay will lead you to have a proper breathe in and breathe out moment where you won't be bothered or be in despair when you do face moments of disappointment.

when one thing turns south, we tend to wallow and sit in the disbelief, frustration and annoyance. but that in itself consumes our energy far more than it should. instead sit and appreciate what once was and what it could've been, let yourself feel those feelings but then pick yourself up and go. do not sit and wait any longer as if that's going to change the outcome. have the 'it is what it is' approach and keep it moving.
