the for us podcast

we all have those weeks where life gets slightly more busy- but these five tips have really helped me to move through these crazy days a little bit better:

1. tuning into the present

2. doing smaller tasks ahead of time to maximize time during the week

3. planning ahead- whether by week, day, or even hour by hour

4. adopting a go-w/-the-flow mindset

5. reflecting on your day each night

life is one big balancing act, and today's epi focuses on how we balance all of the roles we play in life. whether familial, platonic, romantic or professional, the fact is that we play lots of different roles in day-to-day life. and in all of the relationships that we're balancing, it can be hard to truly show up as ourselves in all of these different relationships. !!one of the biggest takeaways from today's epi is that showing up as ourselves looks different in every relationship/role!! this is something that i've been working on a lot and am still working on, but i hope this epi serves as a gentle reminder to take a look at the relationships/role you play in life and what it means to show up as yourself in each of them.

rest. what a word. its one of those things that we hear so much about: "just rest" "rest properly" "rest and reset". we're told that its so important, but what is it? rest, as an action, is so important, whatever that looks like for you, whether it be extra sleep, unwinding, or any other practice. but equally important is your mindset. if your mind is racing, thinking about work, stress, and all the crazy things going on in life, is it really rest? in today's epi, i talk about how i've been rethinking rest and how important this rest mindset has been for my overall well-being.

i've done past episodes on building a morning routine, but not anything particular about an evening routine, and i felt like its been an episode i've been needing to do. so in this episode, i talk about specific components that you can use to build your ideal evening routine, including timeframe/schedule, putting away electronics, body and mind practices and setting a bedtime. my evening routine has been something that i've found so crucial to my overall well-being lately, so i hope this helps you to build your own!

as teens, identity is a question that is often on our minds. but regardless of your age, it is an important topic to think about, especially self-perception and how that is truly reflected in our day-to-day interactions. in this episode, i dive deep into the question of identity and how self-perception is the key to unlocking a lot of our potential to be the best versions of ourselves. i encourage you to have the hard conversation with yourself about this idea of identity and self-perception, and to reflect on how you can better your relationship with yourself.
