Ironically Serious

In this episode, I'm joined by an incredibly educated spiritual mentor and breathwork practitioner, Alyse Bacine. She specializes in helping women drastically and miraculously change their lives for the better and has over a decade of experience in the mental health field, including a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and certifications in both Social Emotional Learning and Mindfulness Practice. Not to mention over 20 years of experience in breathwork and healing.!! Alyse and I dive into topics surrounding forms of healing, breathwork, and how to tap into mental health resources. Alyse shares her extensive knowledge of trauma and ways we can understand how to identify and heal trauma. Questions like, "What is trauma," "What types are there,"  and "How can we start identifying what types of traumas we’ve been through," will be answered in this episode. Lastly, Alyse shares more of her own path with healing/spirituality and what led her to work in this field.

You know I always keep things real, so I need to apologize for my (unexpected) month-long hiatus from the podcast. The good news? I'm not going anywhere. In this solo dolo eppy, I share where I've been these past 4 weeks and why you haven't heard from me. Spoiler: it's not as dramatic as you think. I just needed a moment of clarity, ok? I get honest and real about my vision for this brand and what you can expect in this new era of Ironically Serious.  And since you haven't heard from my unhinged self in a while, I give a little life update on life without alcohol, personality trait overhauls, and where my head has been lately with realigning my life.

Basically, I missed you <3

I'm joined by Eva Couto for an episode with some seriously honest girl talk (and I'm living for it). Eva is a Brand Designer & Strategist who helps badass businesses stand out with bold, strategic & 100% unique branding. She's born, raised, and based in Porto, Portugal–we dive into her upbringing in Portugal and what life was like in a catholic private school. Eva shares how she grew up with security but her mental health was eventually rocked after an abusive experience with her college boyfriend. While discovering herself after her breakup, Eva becomes the Tinder queen!!! In true TayTay fashion, we do a Tinder Q&A. I won't spoil it but it includes her worst Tinder date, steamy tent sex, and craziest public hookup. Eva's down-to-earth, no-filter outlook on life will have you saying, "GIRL, SAME."

Slow clap for Dry January. I can't believe I did it! If you've been following along, you know how important this commitment was for me–so I break down my experience with Dry January in this episode. I get honest about my relationship with alcohol and why I wanted to explore sobriety. I share some of the wild revelations, physical and mental manifestations, and overall clarity I've received from giving up alcohol for 35 days. Other than the physical benefits (which we all know about), I share some of the mental, emotional, and relationship-level transformations I've experienced and how it has majorly impacted every arena of my life.

If you are currently exploring options of sobriety or want to discipline yourself with a challenging detox of sorts, this episode will give you the encouragement to GO for it!!

If you are currently experiencing problems with alcohol addiction, you are NOT alone and there are solutions. Click here to visit the registered AA website for resources and to connect with a chapter near you. There's no shame in getting help, sis.

Today I’m chatting with Diana Jakubcova – the founder of Deeply Rooted Studio, a branding and consultancy firm that serves female founders worldwide. Diana left her home in Slovakia at 17 and has lived a digital nomad life ever since. We first dive into her journey and how entrepreneurship has morphed for her over the years.  After graduating from Fashion Design & Business in Denmark, she shares how she and her partner built multiple, successful online brands which led her to discover branding and design as her passion. She shares about her time living in Bali, which leads us down a rabbit hole of subconscious healing, spirituality, and Diana's experience with hypnotherapy. We explore how self-awareness and understanding of patterns/behaviors can affect our businesses!

A business eppy?! WHO AM I?! Today I'm bringing you a much-requested discussion on virtual assistance. WTF is it? Why did I start a VA Business back in 2019? Is it worth it? I answer all of these questions and go into detail about how the virtual assistance industry changed my life. Your mind will be blown when you hear just how many VA opportunities there are in 2023. From the risks of switching careers to the honest truth about diving headfirst into the virtual assistance world, I share the most important thing you need to do before starting your business and the confidence you need to do it.

I'm back girlies for another big-sis pep talk!! I start the episode with some applicable tips for pitching yourself and mindset shifts to gain confidence in speaking your name in a room full of opportunity. I give you the push you need to put yourself out there and go for your big dreams. Switching gears, I open up about a recent dialogue I've been having about prioritizing yourself first. It's easy to put ourselves last, but I share the importance of serving your mental and physical health so you can love others deeper and be the best version of yourself. Sorry in advance for royally cursing you by bringing up the topic of rat kings (literally the most disgusting thing in the world). I share some of the small, personal changes I've made in my daily life to build a better me and push you to do the same.

I am BACK for the first solo episode of 2023, and for the first time ever... sober. Trust me, I'm shocked too. In this eppy, I share my desires and outlook for 2023 and how sobriety has never looked better. I admit some embarrassing qualities about myself that I'm hoping to change this year and finally step into my healthy girl era. I talk about all things health, wellness, body image, and being kind to yourself. I share my own struggles with self-image and how the last few months of 2022 left me ready to make big changes in my life. If you feel like you need a big sis push to go after your goals, love yourself deeper, and strive for excellence, this episode is for you.
