  • Ep. 39: The Struggles of Anxiety: Part 1
    Anxiety is depicted in movies and tv as someone hyperventilating into a brown bag, and that’s not exactly accurate. Anxiety can look like many things for different people. It can become so disruptive in our lives. In this first part, I share for the first time what anxiety looks like for me and how I know when I need to ask for help. Please know that you’re NOT ALONE if you are struggling with your anxiety. If you need help (which is okay!), please reach out to me or a loved one, or use the suicide & crisis lifeline by calling or texting 988.

  • Ep. 38: How To Find A Job You're Happy With
    Treat your careers like men...don't settle! Today I brought a special guest, my husband Jamie, to talk about how we've pivoted in our careers to land the jobs that we're both really happy with. From poor grad students to fulfilled professionals, we chat about how we navigated leaving academia (then coming back to it) and the tips we recommend for anyone just starting out their careers or looking to move into a different path. Plus, you get to learn more about what we do in our jobs!

  • Ep. 37: Finding Your Black Hole

    No, I don't mean your a-hole, as much as I love a good poop pun! I'm talking about the activities and people that suck the time and energy out of your life. If you're working towards a goal and you see that you're not making much progress, there's probably a (few) black hole in your life. How do you know?  Well when you feel like you haven't done much, but time has still passed, that's a black hole! Today we chat about finding your black hole and what to do once you've found it.

  • Ep. 36: To Open the Childhood Wound or Not

    For anyone who has lived through childhood trauma, as an adult you may find yourself still dealing with someone that happened YEARS ago. As I've gone through therapy and milestones in my life, I'm come to a point where I'm asking myself "Do I want to open this old wound to heal or let it be?" It's a tough question that doesn't have a right or wrong answer. There's several things and people to consider so these decisions are never to be taken lightly. But what do we do as someone who is trying to heal? Let's talk about this shit.

  • Ep. 35: Shitting Yourself With Excitement
    When was the last time you were so excited or nervous that you felt you might shit yourself? Probably not yesterday. Humans for the most part don’t enjoy taking risks. No one wants to get rejected or get hurt, so we rarely take risks. I get it. But if nothing changes, then nothing changes. We gotta take risks in life, and today we’ll chat about how to get through that fear of risk taking. Check out more about toastmasters at www.toastmasters.org

  • Ep. 34: Having Patience During A Growth Phase

    Warning: I cry in this episode, but what's new right? lol Today we talk about the growing pains that come with leaving your comfort zone and the feeling of loneliness that might come with it. Going through a growth phase, whether it's moving to a new city or pivoting to start your own business, can be hard. But this too shall pass.

    I finally did the thing I've been shit talking that I was gonna do! Anyone else like that? You say year after year that you're going to do this project (remodel your bathroom, host a fundraiser, start a blog, etc.) but you never actually do it. Yep. Me too. But I finally did it and I'm here to share how I used these 5 steps to finally get my ass to finish my own dream project. My new website is finally live so please check it out and I would love to hear what you think (and if I missed any typos!).

  • Ep. 32: It’s Okay To Cry
    Yesterday was rough. It was 6 years since my mom passed away and I thought I would be fine. I balled my eyes out and then got upset because “it’s been 6 years” and I should be “over it.” There’s no timeline for grief. It’s okay to cry, no matter how much or how little time has passed.
