  • EP: 63 Creeps & a New Seat

    On this episode of On the Bright Side, I chat about the latest of my silly stories, a creep encounterment on the airplane (T&P’s to them ), and the reminder that a seat at a new table is waiting for you. Consider today’s episode a little bit of both - silly yet motivational ( and relatable) aka Caroline coded. Happy listening!!!!

  • EP 62: Thomas Rhett, Dumpster Diving & Barefoot Loyalty

    This week’s episode has me written all over it. From dumpster diving for my phone, to doing social media for Thomas Rhett, to hosting my first OTBS event: Wake Up to Wellness. I truly live so many lives. I chat about how these pinch me moments came to be, the left field comments I’ve been getting as of late and what real friendship looks like - like going barefoot in bars and casinos because someone’s shoe broke (Brooke, your people RIDE for you).  Oh, and a few other funny things that you’ll just have to hear about. I DON’T CARE. It’s chaotic, it’s funny, it’s very me. HAPPY LISTENING HEHEH

  • EP 61: LET IT BREAK BEFORE IT BENDS YOU

    One thing I love about these episodes is that I get to mix humor with real life. On this episode of On the Bright Side, I’m talking about how sometimes we need to break instead of constantly bending just to please other people, because the more we bend, the more we lose ourselves in the process. And honestly, is it even burning a bridge when we break … or are we just clearing a path for something new? But of course, before we get into all that deep stuff, I’ve got to talk about pop culture, my silly opinions, and what’s been going on in life lately. OH and of course On the Bright Side's FIRST event: Wake Up To Wellness!!! Love Y'ALL!!

  • EP 60: First Year Out and Post Grad Looks Like This?

    If you told me this is what my life would look like one year post-grad, I would've said you're CRAZY!! A lot of unexpected...both good and bad. But that's the beauty of post-grad: you jump off the deep end for the first time in your life and are told to find your path and purpose...it's hard, but it's also amazing.

    So, now being one year post-grad, let's chat, because whether you just graduated or are four years post-college, I think we can all relate to this and may even need to hear it: it's okay if you feel behind, if life moved in a different direction than you expected. It's okay to be living at home, or to move away and want to come back. It's all a part of life, and it's not talked about enough... so of course, what are we going to do? Talk about it.

    Love y'all! Happy listening & congrats grads!!!

  • EP 59: Don't let Your Anxiety Drive ( or me talk this much)

    This week, I’m back from a Wilmington trip that basically made me remember how much I love the South. My content popped off (normalize tooting your own horn), and yes, I did put the car in neutral mid-drive, but passenger princess duties were still served. From sunrise swims to pre travel anxiety, I’m recapping the week, and how we can't let anxiety get in the way.

    Anxiety can be loud... but so can I. So let's CHAT!! This ones for the overthinkers, cancelers, and worriers: you're not broken. You're just letting anxiety steer more than it should — and we’re done with that!!

  • EP 58: Deinfluencing You From Toxic Social Media Advice

    We've all heard the advice: "If he wanted to, he would," "You have to hustle 24/7 to succeed," and "Never change for anyone." On the surface, they sound empowering, but when you dig a little deeper, you start to wonder: are these ideals really lifting us up, or quietly wearing us down?Because here's the truth: you don’t need a $100 skincare routine to practice self-care, and success isn’t a badge earned by exhaustion. So what happens when "inspirational" advice turns toxic? Let's chat!!

  • EP 57: I Wouldn't Wish My Past Week on My Worst Enemy!!!

    Luke Combs was right, when it rains it does pour...but that rain helped me to see life more clearly...so I'm taking it as a win. Last week was no walk in the park, but we made it to the next week, and so naturally I'm going to make fun of it now. OH WAS IT A WHIRLWIND!!! Because yes, it's called on the Bright Side but not every part of life has to be celebrated as a win, and some weeks we just need to laugh and say Thank GOD that weeks over ( and this was one of those).

  • EP 56: Don't "When" Your Life Away

    On this episode of OTBS, I talk about how important it is that we live our life in the now, and not the when. Because before we know it  time will pass, opportunities will fade, and someday may turn into never. SO WE’RE TAKING BABY STEPS TO THAT!!! But because I am the most unserious person, I do this episode in a silly way…because life isn’t that serious!!! So let’s just chat about life, this idea and the fact that Coachella sounds like my literal exposure therapy and my target is broken.  Happy listening!!!!

  • EP 55: Your Personality is a Privilege!!!!

    Your personality is a privilege to be around and if people don’t see that, then there’s the damn door. On this episode of On the Bright Side, I’m diving into the importance of sharing your personality with the people who truly appreciate it. Oh, you think I’m quiet? I’m not. Like at all. You either lost the privilege of my personality or just haven’t earned it yet. 

    Too often, we fall into the trap of people-pleasing, overcompensating when someone doesn’t like us, and showing even more of ourselves in hopes of changing their minds. But why?

    Okay, let’s CHATTTTT!
