More Mimi

Episode number 14 more silence I have a problem with silence with spending time is it with giving people it with society silence on important issues so today we will talk about silence.

What it means, how my ego interprets it's, what the benefits of silence are, what negative silence is, and then the connection that swimming has with all of this .

Today I'm talking about all of the tips. Meal tips transitioning kids tips tech clean out tips. All the important things like If you are eating soup on a 90° day you are a monster, there's just no way around it. So let me help you transition your soup nights to salad nights. Also add some tatziki sauce.

Right now you might need a reminder that things that are going good can quickly change when the season changes, and that doesn't make them bad. It just makes them seasonal. Lean into it.

I also have some rock solid tech clean out tips for you such as how to stay on top of your pictures, figuring out what to listen to in this season by creating some spring category playlists and how to clear out those apps that you never open. Thanks for being here with me on More Mimi!

Turns out I'm not perfect but I have found the perfect avocado toast. you're welcome

We've been here for a year, so I'm thinking back on a year in flex

When I was One,

I had just begun.

When I was Two,

I was nearly new.

When I was Three

I was hardly me.

When I was Four,

I was not much more.

When I was Five,

I was just alive.

But now I am Six,

I'm as clever as clever,

So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever -A.A. Milne --I can't talk about My sweet babies birthday without thinking about adoption and what led us to this place. Today I am sharing about that process and reflecting on the hurt and beauty in it all.

It's time to talk about confirmation bias, Richard Rohr & dr. Seuss

Instead of judging my beginning over others most successful points I'm here to show you my progress, my mind traps that I'm getting through and the joyfulness of being new To something.

I'm breaking down our bedtime routine and I'm also having a bit of a breakdown. Learning to parent and be a person through toddler tantrum's at night time and giving you my best lullabies. I also talk about the pandemic and what it means to be sick in the time of Covid and also why am frustrated with people looking out for me.

Hi friends thanks for being here! This is a podcast about me for you.! My goal is to surprise you with joy, normalize your doubts, and leave you feeling functional in this bizarre world we live in. Today I am somewhat apprehensively talking to you about cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a chronic, terminal genetic disease which I have! Whoohoo! I actually struggle to share about CF because I feel sometimes like I'm not CF enough to talk about CF. This idea is somewhat luda (cris) as I have had CF for 33 years and have experienced many different facets of it and it affects my day-to-day life. But CF is a disease that affects everyone differently and because of that I have never fully got in my footing to feel comfortable sharing my journey Not wanting people on the outside to equate my experience as the norm. I also can I have a tendency to wanna go ostrich on my disease and pretend like not talking about it will mean that it affects me less which is also not true. So I'm cracking the gate a little bit and talking to you. I'm also chatting to you about books that I'm reading and what they are helping me examine in my own life right now. Off the top of my head I wish I worked in public health and also was a showgirl in the 1930s so my pursuits are varied. But right now wintering by Katherine May is giving me a lot of life and affirming that in this season it is OK to be out of sync with what summer Mimi would be doing. Lastly I just want to go over parenting and what a mindnumbing experience it can be to manage a 2 1/2-year-old feelings. I realize lately that most of what I am called to do is just manage my own chill in the face of absolutely unreasonable and illogical emotions that are being hurled at me in the form of cries. I hope this segment can Hope you feel like your crazy is actually normal. Thanks so much for tuning in. Please don't forget to subscribe and leave a review if you can!

Oh hi there , It's a podcast about me for you! My goal is to surprise you with joy normalize your doubts and leave you feeling functional in this bizarre world we live in. Today I'm talking about silly joy and by silly Joy I mean ridiculous "holidays" that you can celebrate, such as national bubble gum day, and don't Cry over spilled milk day. I'm also talking about black history month and why I am so excited to learn, dismantle, relearn and continue to understand the narratives of history that have been ignored in the mainstream. Black history isn't just about this one month but it is a great reason to take a deep dive and explore topics and themes you're curious about. I also share with you this new idea of aesthetic force in my life; brought to me courtesy of queen Bréne Brown and Dr. Sarah Lewis. I share with you how a simple children's book, Corduroy, had a profound aesthetic force influence in my life. Lastly, I'm so excited to talk about this resource I've Recently found. Bookmarks from Netflix a series of authors reading (sometimes) their children's stories. There is an entire collection called Representation Matters and it's definitely worth tuning into.
