STUDENTS, DO WE HAVE A SHOW, A LESSON, FOR YOU TODAY. ON THIS EPISODE, FITNESS ENTHUSIAST, ALLY VANSCHAIK, COMES ON TO TALK TO US ABOUT SO. MANY. THINGS. WE START WITH FITNESS, HOW SHE GOT STARTED, HOW SHE FIGURED OUT WHAT TO DO, AND HOW SHE USES FITNESS AS A TOOL TO INCREASE HER SELF CONFIDENCE AND MENTAL HEALTH. SHE IS SO METHODICAL WITH PROPER FORM, WE START TALKING ABOUT PHYSIOLOGY. WE DISCUSS BODY POSITIVITY AND BEING COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT IN YOUR BODY WHILE ALSO BEING HEALTHY. OH GOD, WE TALK ALOT ABOUT LURKING FOR INSPIRATION ON SOCIAL MEDIA IN POSITIVE, INSPIRING WAYS, OPPOSED TO COMPARING OURSELVES TO OTHERS. 

THE CLIMAX OF THE STORY IS WHEN ALLY GETS INTO CONSCIOUS EATING. CONSCIOUS EATING IS HER WAY OF INCORPORATING MINDFUL AND INTUITIVE EATING HABITS AS HER "DIET." DONT GET ME STARTED, DIET SPELLS DIE AND WE TELL YOU HOW TO HAVE A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD & FITNESS WHILE LOSING WEIGHT AND ACTUALLY BEING HAPPY. 

WE CAN'T FORGET TO THANK THE HATERS. ALLY TALKS ABOUT HER OWN EXPERIENCE DEALING WITH HATERS AND FINDING HER WAY TO EMBRACE HERSELF. I ACTUALLY READ IN MY BOOK TODAY THAT A CHARACTER NEVER TAKES ACTION UNLESS CHALLENGED. SO SERIOUSLY, WE NEED TO THANK OUR HATERS AND PROBLEMS BECAUSE THEY GIVE US THE MOTIVATION TO TAKE ACTION.

IN RESOLUTION - NEVER LOOSE YOUR COOL. ALL OF THE THINGS THAT YOU YOU ARE WHAT MAKE YOU COOL. NEVER FORGET THAT.

Welcome back to Skip Class Still Pass. In today's episode, I sat down to talk with my favorite teacher from high school, Ms. Rizzi. She is more than a teacher, she is a great friend who has supported my vision since basically day one. We recorded this episode in September of 2020, which was suicide awareness month. In the episode, we talk about the documentary, The Social Dilemma, and how social media is impacting the younger generation's mental health. We discuss how schools could help students be better prepared for "life." We really bounce from memory to memory talking about Ms. Rizzi's life growing up in the '90s and attending fashion school at FIT. She also shares the lessons she wishes she knew when she was younger. We talk about having an open-minded attitude, being too hard on yourself, saving your money, staying aware of social media, and faking it till you make it. I hope you guys enjoy x

STUDENTS, TODAY I COME TO YOU TO DISCLOSE SOME PERSONAL INFORMATION. I SACRIFICE MY PRIVACY TO GIVE YOU THE ADVICE AND LAUGHTER YOU NEED TO FEEL CONFIDENT IN YOUR OWN LIFE. WE START OFF BY CONQUERING OUR FEARS WITH BELIEFS THAT WE CARRY THROUGH OUR LIVES. SOCIAL MEDIA HAS CHANGED THE GAME AS FAR AS COMMUNICATION GOES, AND TODAY WE REALLY FOCUS IN ON SNAPCHAT. I EXPOSE THAT PEOPLE ARE OFTEN INEXPERIENCED, WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE NO REASON TO FEEL INTIMIDATED OR COMPARE OURSELVES TO OTHERS. AT THE END OF THE DAY WE ARE ALL LOOKING FOR SOMETHING SIMILAR, SO ALLOW YOU TO HELP YOU FIND YOUR SOMEONE <3 HAPPY EARLY VALENTINES DAY LOVE U ALL XXXX

In today's episode, I finally got out of bed to talk about some very important subjects. One of the main points of the episode is to ensure that we learn from our past experiences to be better moving forward. There is no handbook on how to be good at life, only our knowledge from our experiences. I talk about what it's like as a kid discovering mental illness in a world where we don't know what we're dealing with. At this point I'm basically in a relationship with Tik Tok because I spent way too much time with it, It knows me better than I know myself, and we basically fall asleep together every night. I talk about a lot of the positives of Tik Tok, including how mental health knowledge can be spread by people with different experiences worldwide. I may have had a slight panic attack but I kept in the footage to show first hand, we can control our minds and thoughts. I talk about some mistakes I've made with friends in the past so that we can use my experiences to have better relationships in the future. Like I talk about in the episode, I've wasted so much time worrying about sh*t that doesn't matter and I don't want you to do the same. Be sure to listen to save your time and age like fine wine. LMAO for real there is some good advice in here somewhere.

In today's class, I invite on my three little cousins. Lindsay is a freshman right now (COVID FALL 2020) so we talk about her experience starting school at such a weird time. We talk about what it's like interacting with teachers through hybrid/online schooling. We go off on some tangents about how disrespectful students can be to their teacher and other classmates.  Samantha and Danielle are twins and sophomores in college. Samantha interrupts multiple times, while Danielle comes in to takeover the Intro, Ad, and the conclusion. It's a little long but we're worth it, this is a family fiasco you don't want to miss. Listen all the way to the end to win a free prize!

ON SCSP, IT IS MY DUTY, TO BE HONEST. I RECORDED THIS EPISODE WITH MICHELLE ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE SHE TOLD ME SHE NO LONGER WANTED TO BE FRIENDS. AFTER THAT HAPPENED I CHANGED THE DESCRIPTION TO SOME PETTY SHIT. 

IT'S ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER AND I SPOKE TO MICHELLE TODAY. I FELT I WANTED TO WRITE SOMETHING BETTER, A BIT KINDER TO REFLECT OUR FRIENDSHIP. 

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON. WE MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND, NOT LIKE IT, BUT IT'S TRUE. WHILE IT HURT THINKING I LOST A LIFELONG FRIEND, IT NEEDED TO HAPPEN. IT FORCED ME TO LEVEL UP AND BE THERE FOR MYSELF. MICHELLE SHARED WITH ME TODAY THAT SHE HAS ALSO LEARNED AND GROWN ALOT IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS. LITERALLY EVERY EXPERIENCE WE HAVE IN LIFE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN. 

FRIENDS FIGHT. IT SUCKS. I HATE TO FORGIVE BUT I HAVE GOTTEN SOOO MUCH BETTER AT IT. I WOULD PUT THAT IN CAPS BUT THIS WHOLE THING IS IN CAPS. IT'S NOT THAT I HATE TO FORGIVE, ITS WHEN SOMEONE HURTS ME I DONT WANT TO GIVE THEM THE CHANCE TO DO IT AGAIN. BUT IF IM BEING HONEST, I HAVE ANOTHER FRIENDSHIP THAT WE HAVE FOUGHT AND FORGIVEN EACHOTHER, AND WE ARE SO MUCH CLOSER BECAUSE OF IT. 

IM A SCORPIO SO IT PAINS ME TO ADMIT IT, BUT TIME DOES HEAL WOUNDS. ALSO, A RATIONAL MATURE ADULT UNDERSTANDS ITS BETTER FOR OUR OWN MIND, CLARITY, HEALTH, ENERGY, FOR US TO LET GO AND NOT HOLD ANGER OR RESENTMENT IN OUR HEARTS. 

THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE "INCIDENT" WITH MICHELLE, I KEPT TELLING MYSELF, EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND I NEEDED TO LEARN FROM THIS EXPERIENCE TO BE BETTER AND DO BETTER. IT HELPED ME SO MUCH, SO HOPEFULLY ONE DAY WHEN YOU NEED TO BE REMINDED, THAT HELPS YOU. 

ALL THE BEST <3

Welcome to Skip Class Still Pass, the podcast where we talk about all the things they don't talk about in school. We are here for the graduate, dropout and those currently suffering. I'm your host, or the guidance counselor you've never had, Nikki Bari.

Today's class is Physical Education. I invited on my friend from college, a 23-year-old grad student, Ellin Gurvitch. We discuss how Ellin first started her healthy lifestyle and how she maintained it throughout college. We talk about two things that students don't take seriously but are two things that could seriously help you, sleeping and reading. We indulge in positive self-talk strategies and more. 

If you are looking to laugh and better yourself, at the same time, this episode is for you, enjoy! x
