Your body is always talking to you, can you hear it? This week we learn how to use neuro-science based techniques to discover our bodies unique language and strengthen our understanding of the mind body connection. Learn to regulate your nervous system to enhance your relationships with others, and with yourself, by becoming the version of you capable of responding over reacting.

Your body is always with you, but it is always WITH you. Is it always taken into consideration, are you always aware? You can walk, and then you can WALK. with your feet grounded and your chest expanded. You can speak and then you can SPEAK from the heart and from the soul. You can listen, and then you can LISTEN. Feeling the experience in your own body, animating it, making it more colorful. You can exist and then you can exist. Our bodies come with us wherever we go, treat it like you want it to be there!

I share my own experience as well as provide extensive insight into why we do the things that we do, how it shows up in our psychology and our relationships.

We’ll explore how our past wounds can make us reject the good things in life and cling to negative experiences. I'll share my journey of self-understanding and the importance of allowing others to know us by first knowing ourselves.

We'll also discuss the impact of our childhood experiences on our ability to live authentically and the challenge of letting go of outdated self-perceptions. By examining these deep-seated fears, we can start to open ourselves up to new connections and experiences, allowing love and light to enter our lives.

Let’s explore how presence is the gateway to intimacy and the acceptance of love. We’ll discuss the importance of living in our own magic, the power of self-love, and how to navigate the fear of being seen.

Are you a Hot Girl with Seasonal Depression? Me too girl. That's why this week we are talking about how we can get out of the slump and despair that is seasonal affective disorder and enjoy the winter season. In this episode, I give you affordable, and realistic tips for surviving the season that have worked for me and many others!

Have you ever found yourself feeling unmotivated? Do you find yourself feeling; tired, annoyed, stressed, and numb? You might be experiencing a rut. We have all expereinced lows in our lives that seem impossible to get out of. Trust me when I say, I have and had to pull myself out of it many times. Fortunately, I've learned a thing or two along the way and can help you regain your motivation and find your way out of your own rut.

How to get out of a rut:

1. Acknowledge that you're in a rut

2. Journal - get introspective: What in my life might be causing this?

3. Create Lists - small action items, celebrate small wins often!

4. Get Inspired - you're the main character!

5. Be gentle with yourself!

In What Area(s) Of Your Life Do You Feel The Most Fufilled?

Is Delulu really the Solulu? Pyschology would say...yes! There are many theories in psychology that back the reasoning behind why it can be good to be delusional. Being delusional doesn't necessarily mean living in denial, and can actually be used as a tool to help us accomplish everything that we dream of and desire. Ideally, we want to embody a version of ourselves who can see the challenges but hold a knowing that we can find the solutions and not feel intimidated by circumstances. We will reponed out of a new belief system in a mature and stable way:

There are many psychological reasons that prove being delusional works:

1. Self fulfilling prophecy - We are likely to experience that which we believe to be true about ourselves, our circumstances, and others.

2. The reticular activating system - Our brains own, "filter", which allows us to focus on what it is that we assume to be true or present in our reality.

3. The Cognitive Triangle - Thoughts/beliefs affect Emotions/feelings which affect Actions/behaviors.

Next time you find yourself facing an undesireable circumsatnce or a situation that the current version of you dosent believe they are able to fix or participate in, ask yourself what beliefs you need to change to be able to deal with this circumstance or participate in this disired expereince. Ask yourself, what is the version of you who already has this? What is the version of you who knows the solution?

*THIS WEEKS JOURNAL PROMPT*

What limiting beliefs are holding you back from reaching your potential?

Love you all so, so much! Talk to you next week!

Are you waiting for your life to happen? I've been there too. I've been in a place where I felt in a "waiting stage" after graduating college. I felt like I didn't have direction for my life anymore and I was constantly asking myself, "Now What?" This created a cycle of stress and depression. Now, I've come out on the other side and I am here to help you do the same!

Feeling Directionless and in a "holding state" after a major life change, whatever that may be, is completely normal. We've been programed throughout most of our lives through school and work to be conditioned to work within a certain structure to achieve success. When we leave that structure, we can feel lost and identity-less.

Its important to know that you don't need to have it all figured out now, you don't need to know what your next steps are. You don't need to be achieving everything now - even though its unfortunately pushed onto us in our 20s.

Lets reframe this "lull' time in our lives by taking advantage of this time:

1. Celebrate your success and how far you've come!

2. Re-discover what you love!

3. Find your identity without the constraints of school, work, or other people.

4. Be selfish with your self love and self discovery.

5. Find Your Inspiration in life and in those who inspire you.

6. Take time to REST!

This weeks journal prompts:

1. What would you do if money wasn't a factor?

2. Who would you be if no one was watching?

3. What are three hobbies that you want to try?

4. BONUS!!! Try making a vision board !!!! :)

Do you have trouble setting healthy boundaries in relationships? Me too, sis. This week we talk about boundaries, what they are, how they've been skewed in pop culture, how we can set our own healthy boundaries, and what to do if someone disrespects those boundaries. We discuss boundaries vs. controlling behavior as well as weaponized psychology, therapy-talk, and the drama with boundary man Jonah Hill and his ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady.

Healthy Boundaries look like:

- Setting boundaries in relation to yourself and your actions and not in a way to control others behavior

- Using "I" statements to share how you feel

- Stating boundaries early on and in a calm, clear, and respectful way

- Preparing before hand

- Allowing for the potential of flexibility and compromise, without compromising your own values and needs

Hey Baddies, this week were discussing the psychology of Burn Out and Hustle Culture and how it effects us in our personal, professional, and daily lives. We dive deep into how as a capitalistic society, we've created a toxic culture surrounding being over worked, and how we can take preventative measures to avoid burn out through self care and mindset shifts.

Hey Y'all! Join me as we talk about the psychology behind jealousy, envy, self-doubt and comparison, and how we can finally free ourselves from these toxic habits. It's important to remember that there is room for everyone to shine and that there really is no competition, when it has always been you vs. your mindset and who you were yesterday.
