the for us podcast

happy sunday! today, i answer some questions from a recent insta story. its a pretty chill episode, with some good nuggets of info hidden in there. have a great week :)

in all honesty, i don't know why i haven't done an episode like this earlier!! when i'm sick, i really try to take it as a sign from my body that i need rest, sleep and hydration. but it can be hard to shift from a productive, grind mindset to one of rest and recovery. so in today's episode, i share some of my best tips on taking care of your physical and mental health while under the weather. save this episode to come back to next time sickness comes your way!!

after months of working on this, i can finally say that i have re-become the priority of my life. so many of us have this point where we come to the realization that we have lost sight of who we are or where we're going in life, and it feels like we're moving backwards. this is when we may feel ourselves losing priority in our own lives. thats where this episode comes into play. the formula that ive found to be effective in my life is this: enforcing boundaries + conscious action+ setting intention moment-to-moment= regaining priority in life. 

self doubt is something universal, something that all of us have experienced. while it is tough to overcome, it is possible to do, by acknowledging it, finding its root in your past traumas/experiences, finding a grounding technique that allows the thoughts to pass, and then practicing self-compassion. so yeah, its a lot, but each time you take these steps, you are allowing yourself to accept the past, allow the thoughts to pass in the present, and prevent self doubt in the future. 

happy 2023!! with all of this new year goal-setting, resolution-making and motivation in the air, its important to ground ourselves in our truth and remember what we truly want this next year to be like. from channeling this amazing january 1 motivation to the rest of the year to setting an umbrella theme for 2023, this episode is a fun, intentional way to start off this year. lets do 2023 right ;)

if you couldn't tell from the amount of bonus episodes this week, i've been podcasting a lot.... but that also means that there's been a lot on my mind. this episode is pretty jam packed- from romanticizing life to regaining control over our lives to how it all connects to a "reset," its safe to say that i've been doing a lot of thinking lately. expect more episodes to come!!

for some of us, the holidays can bring disappointment, especially with what's been going on with air travel and flight craziness. but as hard as disappointment can get, there is actually so much that we learn about ourselves from the emotion. from uncovering unspoken expectations to hidden intentions, disappointment is actually such a mystery-book type emotion that honestly reveals so much about us. so when we come out of processing this difficult emotion, it is important to dig deeper into where it came from and the expectations behind it.  

surprise!! its bonus episode time, and i honestly feel like this episode has been much needed. ive always talked about the importance of having a strong support system, but this episode really explains the key elements of a support system and how to refocus them and turn them into these great tools in your toolbelt of support. 

hi everyone! i'm back after a two week hiatus, and ive got to say that i've missed podcasting!! but i've decided to come back strong with a midterms/exam season episode. its pretty short and sweet, but there are some good tips in here for dealing with this stressful season aftermath and how to regain the peace and calm after a period of high stress. stay on the lookout for some bonus episodes this week ;) its good to be back!!
