  • Breaking Generational Trauma; Learn to Be Kind

    You are what you choose. You can defy the past, you can become what you decide to be. So many of us relive old patterns of behaviour but may we find the strength to break the cycle.

    "When we find the courage to look long enough into the eyes of our demons, they dissolve into crying children, just asking us to set them free.

    Please don't allow the heaviness of what holds you to dissuade you from beliving in the vision that calls you. Please do not assume that your fear is a finality, a sign of impossibility. Please do not think that just because it is hard, or will take time, or feels far off right now, that you will not one day arrive.

    One day, everything you fear will never come will be right in front of your eyes. " -Brianna Weist

  • Social Media Oversimplifies Love

    Hello my beautiful angels, welcome back to the pod! I am chatting all things love and relationships related in this episode, talking specifically about how I find social media oversimplifies and romanticizes love and relationships, and that it often fails to portray the messiness and uniqueness of love. Don't let someone else's prerogative overshadows your own inner guidance and narrative. There is no one fits all recipe and everyone's view on and approach to love is so different, it ultimately comes down to doing what's right for you and in your best interest.
