The Honest Truth

Happy Wednesday honest tribe! I can't believe that we're already on part 3 of our anxiety series. Like we mentioned last episode, May is Mental Health Month so this series could not have come at a better time. Today on this episode of The Honest Truth, we're digging into situational anxiety, our personal experiences with it, the things that have helped us and the things that we continue to practice daily. This type of anxiety is one that Harr & I can really identify with, so if you yourself have experience with situational anxiety, we hear you, we feel you, and we are absolutely here for you. No matter what type of anxiety you can identify with, it is something that you will always carry with you. Just remember to always be gentle on yourself, control what YOU can control & listen to your emotions.

"We repeat what we don't repair".

Yo... Did Y'all know May is Mental Health Awareness Month? Initially, when we started this series we honestly had no idea until this episode (part 2), but I am SO glad we are dropping this series in a month that is so laser-focused on bringing awareness to topics such as this. First and foremost, social anxiety should not be confused as "shyness". Yes, this may be a characteristic that one has that is living with this disorder, but that is not even close to what this disorder encompasses. Today on this episode of The Honest Truth, we dig into what social anxiety is, our personal experiences with it, the things that can cause it, and a couple of things that we believe will help you if you yourself are one that suffers from this type of anxiety.

Happy Wednesday Tribe!

Welcome to our anxiety series, Honest Tribe! We are so excited to dig into this series with you all as we both hold this topic very near and dear to our hearts. Like many of you, Harr & I have experienced (& still experience) anxiety. What's beautiful about this not so beautiful disorder, is that many of us can identify with it, and stand by one another when it comes to this topic. In part one of this series, we are really just scraping the surface and laying down the foundation on what's to come. Today we touch on some of the causes, our personal experiences and the types of anxiety that we are going to cover throughout the series. These are types that not only we can we identify with, but that you can identify with too.

"Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but trying to control it".

Happy Wednesday Y'all! Welcome to our first official episode as Harriette & Mykinnon. By "first" episode I mean no intro, no "guest", we are finally really getting into it! So buckle up. On today's episode of The Honest Truth, we're talking about letting go of your perfectionism. We're breaking this down for you into two major categories: demanding it from yourself & demanding it from others. In order to even scratch the surface of this, you're going to have to start practicing one thing... stop comparing yourself to others. Once you stop demanding perfection from yourself, the rest will follow.

Welcome back Honest Tribe! I am so excited to announce my new partner, Ms. Harriette Thompson, aka my bestie for over a decade. If you've tuned into our last couple of episodes, you'll be a little familiar with what she's about as I've had her on as a guest. What's most exciting is now you'll realllllly get a sense of what type of women she is, and I can't wait for you all to hear her voice. On today's episode, we're using it as kind of an introductory on what's to come with this podcast, and our main mission. We hope you're just as excited as we are to begin this journey!

Happy Sunday, Honest Tribe! I hope you all had a great weekend. I know y' all aren't used to hearing from us on Sunday's, but we wanted to share an important message with you all. In today's episode of The Honest Truth, as hard as it is to say, this will be Jenna's last episode. And before y' all start to speculate NO, we are not breaking up, we are still sisters and support one another, no matter what. Throughout our episodes, Jen & I have said countlessly how for many things, the beginning of the equation begins with you. You have to fill up your own tank. You have to constantly practice self-care and self-love, always. This is exactly what Jen is going to do. In this episode, she digs into what season she is in her life right now, and how more than ever, it's time for her to really fill up her own tank. It's not a goodbye, it's a see you later, sis.

Wednesday, we're back! By "we" I mean Harriette (@harrweavekilla) & I. Yes, y' all... she is BACK for another episode, spitting that fire. I know a lot of you have heard me say, "life is too short to spend it with shitty people". Today, we're digging into just that. On today's episode of The Honest Truth, we're talking about how to identify toxic people in your life, how to in fact accept that he or she is toxic, and finally... how to actually Cut. Them. Out (insert clapping emoji). YOU are the CEO of your own life. You have the power to chose who you surround yourself with. It's time to say goodbye to all things toxic, because sis (or sir), life is too damn short.

Welcome back Honest Tribe! We are so excited for this weeks episode featuring one of our sisters, Ms. Harriette Thompson (@harrweavekilla - Nah this is not 2chainz). Today we are digging into one of my favorite topics (because y'all know one of my favorite sayings is "empowered women, empower women") -- WOMEN AND CAREERS. This is major, & I'm going to need all y'all to sit down, listen up & take some notes. My biggest fear is women putting themselves in a box. Don't limit yourself to one thing & please don't forget to show up for yourself. Harriette & I dig into our career paths thus far in our lives, the steps we took to get to where we are and some of our tips when it comes to jumping into your career.

To answer the question no, no surrendering is NOT the same thing as giving up! The thing is, is if you're not familiar with the act of surrendering, then you may not be able to recognize that. Today we're wrapping up our surrender series and we're finishing it off with a bang. On today's episode of The Honest Truth, we're looping it all around, packing it up, and delivering it to you with a bow on top! We're digging into the difference between giving up versus surrendering, the importance of not forcing a path but rather letting it unfold to you, and what our hope is for you, from this series. We hope you enjoyed this series just as much as we did recording it!

We are back with part THREE of our Surrender Series, Y'all. On today's episode of The Honest Truth we're digging into "the plan". You know, that thing that we all envision and then when it doesn't go our way (because let's be honest it won't), we feel like our world has been turned upside down! How many of you have been there, or better yet are there? As you've listened throughout our episodes, we have both experienced so much in our 20's, and I promise you none of it was what we had in our plan. Today we're digging into why it's so important to surrender when it comes to your plan, and the benefits you can gain in doing it.
