The Motivation Burrito episodes

  • Episode 52: Weather the Storm
    This episode is a kind of poetic insight to the madness of this year. Some of us have weathered some crazy storms. We've endured our darkest days, even when the storm has felt never-ending and massively overwhelming.
    If you're like me, it felt like you left everything behind. You walked into the storm brave and confident, and then realized, you have no jacket, no umbrella. You're vulnerable, you're exposed, you're unprotected.
    The question becomes, do you move forward in faith? Or do you move forward in fear?

  • Episode 50: Grief and Cycles
    I've decided to take a week, maybe two to take time for my mental and emotional health. In this episode, I share how the grief that has been felt in this year finally came to a head. The last few days I've spent a lot of time crying and releasing a ton of emotions. So I'll be taking time to integrate these feelings and tap into that deeper vulnerability. Stay well everyone, be back soon!

  • Episode 49: A Year in Reflection
    This year has been quite a crazy year. Today, I turn 33 and if I could stop time, I honestly would. As I reflect on the last couple of months, I really felt like there's still something missing. While social media will remind everyone of my birthday, I find myself wondering more about the genuine connections vs the quantity of comments I'll receive. So here's an emotional rant of sorts lol.

  • Episode 48: Election Anxiety
    It's Election Week and all throughout social media I've seen a lot of people talk about Election Anxiety and fears surrounding what is to potentially come. I almost didn't record this because there's already enough opinions floating on the internet, but I did want to acknowledge the anxiety is real, and it's ok to take the time and space needed to ensure your mental health and safety. Stay well my avocados!

  • Episode 47: Stripped Down: My Instagram Series
    I decided to record an episode about the Instagram series I did called Stripped Down. There were things I wanted to share and say but didn't because I felt like people wouldn't read it. And yet, I recorded it anyway. So here's me, stripping down the layers. To be seen, to be heard, to be loved.

  • Episode 45: Belief Wars, Branding and Be-ers (not Beers) with Katherine Elizabeth

    I am super excited to have Katherine Elizabeth on this overdue episode. Katherine is the person behind the awesome logo and branding of The Motivation Burrito and has given life to what was a crazy idea. She captured the essence of me, of this podcast and she's just so EPIC. Not only that, but in true Burrito styles, she shares how during our time together, we underwent a process of shifting and "belief wars". Did I mention, she's EPIC?

  • Episode 44: Resistance

    After talking about this topic on and off for a few episodes, I finally dug deep into the topic and sat with my own resistance. Especially since I hit a wall last week and was unable to record Friday's episode. By taking the time and space needed to do this, I finally came up with 4 ways to start moving past the resistance. Keep in mind, this is just a starting point, but having the awareness and having a place to start is better than being stuck! If any of these work for you, please let me know!

  • Episode 43: Pleasure and Pain: FOOD
    If you haven't figured it out by now, I have a wild love for tacos and burritos. I had this crazy thought that maybe I should do a boudoir shoot but like with food. Foodoir. Except there's already a definition for foodoir and it's not that!!! How disappointing! Still, I talk about my genius idea and how Foodoir Photography needs to be a thing.

  • Episode 42: Tonight We W(h)ine!

    A couple of years ago, I had this idea for a book that I was going to call Tonight We W(h)ine. In this gem of a book would be a wine pairing for each mood, situation or whatever was going on in our lives. The subtitle was just as great: Unbelievably True Stories About Life: Best Served with a Drink or Three. But since I never had the time or did the research necessary for this book, I decided to dive into what wines would go best with the Shit Storm of Emotions I've been feeling! Enjoy!
