Late Night Drives

"I'm sorry" seems so simple, but causes so much pain in our lives. Sometimes, giving an apology feels like rejecting ourselves. Or we deserved one we never got. Life can feel sour when we can't figure out how to make peace with unresolved business, but as Oasis says, "Don't Look Back in Anger".

Can we hold out on making judgement calls about whether things in life are what we want or not? When we manifest or ask for things in life, the way we get them usually doesn't match the idea we had in mind. If we can let go of the original idea, our eyes open to the greatness that is reality.

The traits that I thought were "me" take effort. I have felt exhausted trying to meet my own standards, all the while shaming others for not being like me. Life has forced me into becoming the things I dislike, but in the process I am broken open to reveal my true self, and can have compassion for others in the process.

On this Halloween episode of Late Night Drives, we talk dreams and night terrors. We go over some theories of where dreams come from, what they mean, and how cool it is that we still don't have all the answers. (Not actually very spooky:) )

There is a trend in mental health pushing back against labeling many of our human experiences as trauma. Is there a line between recognizing our traumas to grow into a healthy person and over pathologizing the simple things?

I wish there was a world where we didn’t need the labels to honor our own and each other’s experiences… but that’s getting in the weeds.

Gratitude may be a practiced art, or something we happen upon, or maybe a mix of both. This episode has a fresh perspective on hard experiences- because that’s sometimes all it takes.

This week, I talk about my own heartbreak. Losing yourself in a relationship can sneak up on you, even in a healthy relationship. What can you do to find yourself again and get over painful heartbreaks?

Success is all about the grind… wait that doesn’t sound right.

The way we perceive other peoples’ achievements can make us feel worse about our own progress, and those perceptions are usually way off. The path to success doesn’t have to feel so difficult.

Manifesting can be a powerful tool to bring change into our lives, but it also comes with a lot of questions. This week, we answer some of the biggies- am I allowed to have negative thoughts, do I need to keep thinking about it for it to come true, what if deep down I don’t believe I deserve it?

PS. you do deserve it.

You’ve been riding the wave of synchronicities, trusting your gut, and having gratitude even in the low times. Then suddenly, when you need redirection, it all goes silent. Where is all that character growth, where are the messages? Maybe you feel like you’ve taken massive steps back.

In this episode, we talk about some signs that you’re going through a new kind of change. Knowing the signals can help you to feel less panicked in the waiting, to have hope when you suspect you’ve been abandoned by source.
