This week I discuss the differences between being complacent versus being content. Can you be happy to the point where you don’t notice that you are being complacent? What does complacent look like and can you avoid it? I will give some signs to look out for so you can self-reflect and live a spicy meaningful life . Let's get to it! 

Do you hear that? Yes that's Valentine's days approaching. On this week's episode I talk about how this holiday should be about expressing love for one another whether it be romantic or not. I also talk about how it's ok to cancel the holiday all together (without being a Valentine's Grinch)  if it's not your vibe. 

This week I talk about the one-sided internal narrative we have in our heads and how these stories we tell ourselves hinder us from living our lives. I give you tips on how to shift your mindset from negative to positive and how to be self aware that the stories we tell ourselves are just that- stories, not facts.
