Mindful and Aware

All of my 30+ previously published podcast episodes have magically vanished from the face of the earth & this episode is a depiction of how I’m handling the experience with intention, peace, & power, & how you can move through unforeseen, frustrating, or upsetting experiences with the same energy.

Let’s chat about the difference between feeling & living how we think we are supposed to & feeling & living in alignment with our highest self, the version of us who doesn’t live for others.

This conversation dives into Social Learning Theory & how other people’s behaviors & emotional reactions can shape how we automatically feel about & respond to our personal life experiences. We also focus on the importance of coming back to yourself when making decisions rather than using other people’s advice to lead the path you are taking.

Learn how to live more intentionally & in alignment with your intuition/inner knowing. The answers are within you & you are capable of reaching them. You do not need to be told what to do about your life. You just need to come home & truly acknowledge, understand, & listen to yourself.

TAKE WHAT RESONATES & ALWAYS LIVE FOR YOU

Feeling stressed & need a moment to pause & come back to yourself?

Schedule a 1:1 mindfulness session for 30min or 60min!

Do you feel like you are meant for more & unsure where to start to create your dream life?

Schedule a 1:1 visualization & intention-setting session to connect with your higher self, reframe self-beliefs, & step into the life you deserve <3

Check out group mindfulness & visualization sessions at livemindfulandaware.com!

This is a 20min guided body scan meditation to acknowledge & release any tension or heaviness you may be carrying, as well as recharge your divine energy. This session also includes intentional breathwork & an energy-cleansing visualization. At the end, there will be reflective journaling & intention-setting prompts to deepen your experience.

There is no music behind this meditation to encourage full awareness of your mind, body, & personal energetic field.

Take what resonates, leave what doesn't

Make this space yours & live for you

Enjoy!! <33

for the ones who are shocked when things go their way in life. it's not a coincidence-- it's what you deserve.

this is a chat that shines a light on the power of our subconscious mind & habitual ways of thinking, feeling, & seeing ourselves & life.

learn how to reframe your negative self-talk & train your brain to find safety in feeling good rather than constantly preparing for the worst.

take your foot off the gas & allow yourself to enjoy all the good happening now, without bringing in irrelevant information that will ruin what is good right now.

say yes to yourself more often & watch what happens

listen to this if you find yourself almost getting something for yourself, like flowers, coffee, decor, a new shirt, a new book, etc., then deciding against it because "there's no reason", "I don't need it", or "It's a waste of money"

give yourself permission to RECEIVE

say YES

While writing out the description for this conversation, I had just finished it & felt very good about it. Then, suddenly, my laptop glitched & the entire thing disappeared. Immediately, I grunted & felt angry & annoyed that this happened. THEN, I PAUSED & LAUGHED TO MYSELF BECAUSE WOW, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS EPISODE IS ABOUT.

Minor inconveniences do not need to rule your life. You get to decide what experiences & people deserve your energy.

Learn to be hashtag Mindful & Aware in each moment that something immediately angers, annoys, or upsets you. Pause, observe, then intentionally choose how you want to respond, how much energy you want to give it, & how you want it to impact you.

Often, we give far more attention & energy to the little things that really don't require any more than 2 seconds of our time & energy.

Listen to this when that stranger annoys you, or that situation (that does not impact your life or goals at all) makes you mad.

Cheers to living mindfully, with full awareness, & intentionally <3

When we begin getting to know someone, we may suddenly start to constantly think about what they are up to, why they aren't texting back, or we may create a certain idea of them in our heads that we want them to be. This may lead to us getting hurt, upset, disappointed, or freaking out over how this person is living their life. Maybe they post something that makes you overthink your place in their life or their intentions with you. Maybe you see them do something with their life that makes you question how you will fit in with their life. Maybe you're wondering, "why aren't they thinking about me??".

In a way, we wish to have control over how this person treats us, how they view us, and their intentions with us. In essence, we wish to have control over this person. We want our ideas and assumptions about them to be true, and when they do not match these visions, we are confused, upset, sad, or hurt.

And what did they actually do except live their life?

This one goes out to the overthinkers, the ones who are always trying to be one step ahead, and the ones who, when they meet a potential romantic partner, fall head over heels almost instantly.

Shoutout to you. Sending you all my love and support <3

First things first, this podcast episode is not about optimism. It is about self-recognition, self-trust, compassion, & understanding yourself.

Listen to this when you are on a journey to reach a certain goal or create a certain vision of life, yourself, a project, etc., & you are now unmotivated. All that hope, excitement, & clarity you had at the beginning is now fading.

Open up to this space of self-love, celebration, grace, & self-connection. Take this opportunity to stand up to those negative thoughts that say, "I am not doing enough" or "I am working so hard & have gotten nowhere". This is your time to observe & acknowledge all the steps you have taken to get to where you are now. All those obstacles, challenges, or versions of you that had to be present in order for you to be who you are now.

Allow yourself this chance to come home to yourself. Give yourself permission to pause & notice how high you are standing on this staircase to your goal or vision. This conversation is for you.

If you enjoyed this, send this to someone you are proud of!!

This pod is about those moments when we don’t feel like ourselves—when the people we’re around, the environment we’re in, or everything happening in our heads influences how we show up. Instead of beating ourselves up for those moments, let's chat about why they can actually be opportunities to learn more about who we are.

I talk about perfectionism, self-compassion, outside influence, boundaries, and the little ways we can start embodying more of the version of ourselves that feels authentic—even when we’re surrounded by other people.

And if you’ve ever regretted a moment where you felt like you weren’t yourself, I hope this episode reminds you that you can learn from it without judging yourself for it. Sometimes getting a little lost is how we learn our way back to what feels true :)

When you get off track from your goals, it can be easy to convince yourself that you’ve failed.

You miss a few days of your routine. Life gets busy. You get distracted, go on vacation, stay up late with friends, or simply stop doing the things you promised yourself you would do. Suddenly, you feel like you’ve lost all your progress and have to start over.

But getting off track doesn’t mean you’ve failed.

Sometimes life takes us on little side quests — and that’s okay.

You’re allowed to live your life. You’re allowed to pause. You’re allowed to have days that don’t look like the vision you had for yourself.

What matters is that you remember you can always come back.

Getting off track is not the end of the journey. The path is still there. And whenever you’re ready, you can always hop back on.

This is your reminder that you’re not a failure, you’re human — and you’re always allowed to hop back on the path to your desired reality.
