In this episode Leigh pretends to be a motivational speaker and uses big girl words to explain how important it is to romanticize the journey of life and to recognize how much you have grown. She talks about how fear and jealousy are connected and can be expressed in many forms, as well as advice on falling in love with the bad, good and awkward moments. This episode is a dedication to 2022 and all the progress we have made.

Why is there a negative connotation around the word failure? Why do mistakes make us feel like we are headed in the wrong direction? The answer is.. I don't know.  Mistakes and failures are all things we have been trained to avoid. This mindset keeps us trapped in our comfort zones and prevents us from exploring and trying new things. I believe failure is an asset, mistakes are my new best friend and set backs aren't real. This episode is meant to eliminate the idea that we need to be perfect and to give our inner people pleaser a break.

School takes a toll on our mindsets and mental health.... In this episode Leigh talks about her struggles with staying "positive" and "negative" and addresses the fact that neither one is better than the other. It's important to have a little bit of both to stay mentally healthy. She also talks about her trouble with swearing throughout the years and how she feels it gives off a bad vibe, but in the end they are just words we use to express ourselves. School is rough (to say the least) and its important to make sure we 
are checking in with ourselves and focusing on our mindset, mood and feelings.

UGH this week has been stressful…In this episode Leigh talks about the dangers of overbooking and how to navigate the lows in life. This is basically a life dump episode where Leigh talks about how she is going to try and get back into her old habits and focus more on her mental health again. Especially with the new school year and double the homework It’s easier to get stressed and anxious, but It’s important to remember that YOU GOT THIS. There are always lows and highs in life. Learning to navigate the lows in life now, helps you prepare for ones in the future.

In this episode Leigh shares her biggest workout tips and how you can start setting goals and sticking to new routines. She talks about her difficulty with staying motivated and how she can feel insecure and nervous. She mentions apps that have helped her and what she is currently doing to stay healthy. 

BEST WORKOUT APPS:

#1 Nike Training Club: fitness
- I love this app because it has literally every type of workout on it from yoga, to endurance, strength and mobility training. It also gives you rewards and achievements to help hype yourself up!! It also shows you what days you did a workout and how much time you have spent on the app. 

#2 Nike Run Club: Running Coach
- I SWEAR BY THIS APP, I did the guided 30 minute run with Megan Thee Stallion and it was the longest I've ran with-ought stopping. I loved it so much and it tracks your pace, lets you listen to music, and at the end it pulls up google maps and literally shoes you where you ran so you can see.

SORRY GUYS-
made a mistake on this episode...
 
..when me and parker talk about dream places to live we talk about California, I ended up saying that Northern California is less populated LOL I didn't mean for it to come across like that because I do know there are populated cities... I was trying to compare the few rural places that can be found in Northern California to the big cities like LA that are closer to the south ( sorry about that haha )

In this episode Leigh gives you her tips on money management, and reminds you of the importance of saving and spending your money responsibly. She talks about getting a job and creating a savings account. She also talks about how you can find jobs that can help you prepare for your dream career!

Extra Advice:

1. If you haven't already gotten a job and you are looking to apply somewhere. You will need to get working papers from your school. All you need to do is go to the main office and ask for them, you will need to fill out some quick paperwork but then they will give you a slip that gives you permission as a student to work anywhere! Then, all you need to do is hand it in at your job interview. When I applied for my job bussing tables. I just walked in and asked for a job application form. All you do is fill it in and then wait for their response. ( YOU GOT THIS!!)   (ps: its pretty easy and straight forward)

2. In terms of savings it's important to take money out of your paycheck into saving once a week. Even if you add only 20 bucks a week you are still getting into the habit of putting money away and TRUST ME your future self will thank you. If you are in high school or even middle school you can start saving for things like; a car, college expenses, gas money, you're first apartment etc. Also remember to never, never, never take money out of your saving to spend on something random..it will just get you in the habit of withdrawing money and you don't want to do that, save up for your future self and don't take money out!!!

3. Also remember that just because you have the cash to spend doesn't mean you should/need to spend it. It's a good idea to be money conscious and spend money on things you truly love and that mean something to you. Make sure to check prices and think about your purchases. ask yourself: Is this something I'm going to use? Is this overpriced? Is this a sustainable product? ( sorry this sounds like its straight from a text book or something..) BUT IM SERIOUS you don't wanna spend a lot of money on something that's not gonna last or something you won't really use. 

4.  Don't overthink it! Have fun with your money, you earned it!! go get that basic white girl flannel and pumpkin spiced latte (hehe)
