  • Saying No at the Nude Beach

    Have you ever been approached by someone and it made you incredibly uncomfortable?? This happened to me at the local nude beach the other day when all I wanted to do was listen to music and read my book. My friend Abby and I discuss the power dynamics of a fully-clothed man approaching a young lady with her boobs out at the beach.


    Have any stories you want to share of when you were approached and you wanted to tell them to fuck off but didn't? Let me know! @thedujdiaries

  • Life Lately

    Some may have noticed, my mom definitely did, but I haven't posted a new episode in a few weeks! This chat with my friend Abby goes over the up and downs of my life in the last three weeks. Am I still waking up and running at 5am? Am I still single? (lol spoiler alert of course I am) Was I embarrassed in front of a bunch of NHL players? Am I moving out of the apartment I've lived in for 2.5 years?? You're going to find out!

  • Early Bird

    Somehow I have turned into an Early Bird. How did this happen? I'm not sure. What I am sure of is that I've starting running 5kms before breakfast and I like it. 

    Let me know how you sleep! Early Bird or Night Owl? Let me know! @thedujdiaries

  • People Over Places

    I've been realizing a lot more lately that people mean more than the places you are in. This week I took some time to reflect on a few moments in time where the people I was with made things a whole lot brighter. Do the people you surround yourself with make your days better?

  • It's OK to Cry at the Dentist

    It has been many, many, many, years since I had a dentist appointment. I finally got my teeth checked out and...... I cried. But that's okay! Life is hard enough, don't be ashamed of feeling your feelings and letting tears flow at the dentist. At the very least, if you do, you know now that I'm right there with you.

  • High Caffeine, Nice to Meet You

    As some listeners may already know, I am introducing coffee into my life. The effects of caffeine on me are slightly confusing in their timing and honestly, a bit inconvenient. I reminisce of caffeinated night's past and if I'll continue to do this to myself in the future. As always, thanks for listening, I'm happy you're here!

  • It's About Progress not Perfection, Baby!

    When was the last time you started to learn something new? Do you consider yourself to be a musically-inclined individual? Do you know more than one language? I've started to broaden my horizons in the world of languages and music and I am loving it, despite being a huge beginner, not knowing much about music, and can absolutely not consider myself bilingual. 


    Have any tips for learning new languages? What new hobbies have you started lately? Let me know! My Instagram is @thedujdiaries

  • Happy Anniversary, Heartbreak

    Happy Valentine's Day! Do you do anything special with your partner or loved ones on February 14th? I have always had zero expectations going into Love Day, and last year, even with no expectations, I woke up on the 15th with a hurting heart. This is the one year anniversary of me getting my heart broken and a look back on how I navigated through it all throughout the last year. 

    If you can relate or want to reach out to share stories, please do! My instagram is @thedujdiaries
