- They're Not The One | Anxious vs. Avoidant AttachmentWow, it has been a MINUTE. I have been trying to process my emotions in a healthier way. I am so used to just pouring my soul that I lost sight of my own private moments to myself. Sometimes we have to hold things sacredly, against our chests, and just be. I have spent this time getting to the root causes as to why I keep making the same decisions, mistakes... realizing that I have a part in my growth and in my downfall. I hope whoever is listening to this that you eventually get to a place of healing, a space in which you can forgive yourself. You are not a victim of circumstances - you ARE a survivor of everything. If you feel small, anxious, tired, unmotivated - I hope this finds you when you need it and sparks a little hope that things do progress and get better.
You deserve a love that is within you and outside of you.
You deserve someone who sees you and protects you.
You deserve someone who goes the extra mile to make sure you never have to second guess their intentions.
You deserve someone who would rather take your pain away and not cause it.
You deserve good things and good things are coming.
From one anxious girl to another - we got this.
Love you, mean it.

33 min - Breaking Up On Valentine's Day | Story Time
This is for all the girls who were terribly disappointed on Valentine’s Day - just know you’re worth it and he’s a god damn LOSER.
I just officially ended things on Valentine's Day with the guy I was dating. I THOUGHT I would be worthy of receiving a rose petal at the very least but all I got was a shrug and a whole lot of nothing. SO, sit back, relax & listen to the terrible misfortune of another failed relationship by yours truly. Proud of myself that there are ZERO tears in this episode only giggles and feminine rage. Also, men, boys… whatever the fuck you are.. do better. And grow the fuck up, because women like me are all set. It’s pathetic. I’m in my hating men era, emotional availability is unfounded, and we are fully unhinged.
Love you, mean it.
xoxo

Love you, mean it.

56 min - Dating Wrapped 2023
I'm doing that TikTok trend where we talk about all the guys we've dated this year. Honestly, it's super therapeutic and funny to talk about the highs and lows of dating in your 30s. The people who I thought were so amazing, ended up being the worst. So cheers, to another year. If this year was unkind to you I hope 2024 is a bit brighter and I'll see you next year.
Love you, mean it.

48 min - Single & Childless During The Holidays
It’s the most wonderful time of the year - is it though? Some of us are basking in absolute happiness, while others are hanging on by a thread. Let's discuss why babies make me cry, what it’s really like being single during the holidays, being left empty handed in the dating world, waiting games, validity in your bitter bitch era, and fears to share with your therapist.

52 min - A Flat A$$ & A Flat FACE
The restaurant industry is COLD… I recently had to deal with yet another mean girl. But this time? BABY we are taking the HIGH road! I document a real fight that occurred between a mentally unstable, ex-coworker and I. This is a reminder to be nicer to each other - but also TAKE NO SHIT. You can be the star shining bright, don’t ever give someone the power to make you feel inferior to them. I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving & a healthy/safe time! & I hope this was a great giggle for you!

53 min - Binging, Starving & Everything In Between | Food Control & Disorders
TW: We will be discussing food disorders (bulimia, anorexia & binging).
Food issues and disorders can be really tricky. Where do they come from? Why do some of us restrict, while others might binge? Is it possible to have issues with both? I take you inside the mind of someone who uses food as a form of control. But where does it stem from? Is there hope for recovery? And when should I be asking for help?
If you are struggling and feel like you may need help please reach out to a professional for assistance. If you feel alone in this struggle my DMs are always open. I am not a medical professional - this episode was created to shed light on the shame that surrounds people struggling.
There is hope for you - you just need to ask for help.
Much Love,
c.
