EPISODE 20 and the end of my first season is HERE! It has meant the world to me for every person who tuned into this last season. We've discussed some vulnerable, HARD, and real topics and we've laughed, cried and learned so much. My whole purpose with this podcast is to help every person who tunes in feel more worthy, more normal and gain so much inspiration by learning of others' resilience. I hope this podcast has left you feeling AMAZING. You all inspire me every day and this has been my way to "give back" and talk about important things.  I love you, i see you, you're important and I can't wait to chat more in SEASON TWO! Stay tuned! 

GUYS! You know how sometimes you have a conversation with someone and you can feel your views and your outlook shift? You leave the conversation feeling like a better version of yourself? This episode is exactly that. Sports Broadcaster for the Philadelphia Eagles and full-time fitness instructor Ella DiGiovanni discusses living with an auto-immune disease, chronic pain and STILL living each day to it's fullest and showing up for yourself however you can. This conversation is beyond vulnerable and real, it's a must-listen! I know you'll be as inspired to Power Through Pain as me, enjoy and have a great week! 

Welcome back for episode 18! In this episode I have the privilege to interview one of my closest friends on staying optimistic, going with the flow and surrendering to life's twist and turns, especially when life gets hard. This last November, Kate had a terrible headache and took some ibuprofen along with laying down to take a nap. What she didn't know was that she, at 27 years old with no medical history of anything concerning, was having a brain bleed. After being rushed to the hospital and undergoing scans, it was later discovered that the life-threatening bleed was due to an underlying cause: an AVM (Arteriovenous Malformation). We discuss how Kate has not only survived her ruptured AVM, but how she continues to heal and LIVE.  Prepare to feel insanely inspired and in awe of what Kate urges us all to remember: that YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS! 

Hey ya'll! This is a quickie where I chat about a few things I've been into lately! We talk about Cyclical Living, Human Design, seasonal eating and some products! I hope you love this quick episode and get some new ideas + inspiration from it! Have a beautiful and "aligned" week ;)

Hello and welcome back to episode 15! This episode is just a direct extension of me and who I am: I'm insanely passionate about people following their authentic path and doing what lights them up. Therefore, this episode really serves the purpose of this podcast!

It's all about finding your WHY and getting through the obstacles and burn-out to stay consistently authentic and keep SHOWING UP as you.

Hi there and welcome to episode 14! If you're listening to this episode and hear repeated loud noises, it's my dog Winston throwing a party in the background with one of his bones because he knows I am working on my passion project (lollll). But really, I took away his bones sometime mid episode to stop the annoying noise. ANYWAYS: this episode is about some of the things I personally have found pivotal to implement in my routine in order to feel my best!

WELCOME back to Episode 13! This episode made me so happy to bring to the podcast because I admire so many things about Brandi and her genuine gift of bringing women together and advocating for women's wellness, no matter your shape, demographic, size or income level. We talk starting a business, walking away from corporate life, following your intuition, and why it's so important to highlight safe spaces within our communities for women. When Brandi began her hiking groups, she intended to create a space for women of color to hike together in a place they may not have knew existed within their own city: The Wissahickon. But then, something magical happened: women of all colors, ages and neighborhoods began joining in on her hikes. In the name of healing and wellness, you can join this beautiful growing community on their weekly hikes, events and retreats (link below) and listen in on this beautiful, creative and courageous journey Brandi is taking to keep showing up for her hunnies!

Welcome to Episode 12 of this wellness journey! Today we talk about something that isn't often discussed when talking about recovery and sobriety: partnership when your partner isn't in recovery. In this episode we talk to Harry Cunnane, co-author of Under Our Roof: A Son's Battle for Recovery, A Mother's Battle for Her Son about his exceptionally well-written and vulnerably honest memoir on recovery and meeting his now wife, Juliet! We talk to this couple about marriage, parenting, and what makes it all work. We also discuss the ins and outs of wellness for these two, and why friendship and honesty just may be the most important aspects of a successful relationship. Let's get into it! Join us on our conversation with this beautiful "power" couple and two wonderful individuals.

It's HERE! Episode 11 where I get to interview one of my good friends who also happens to be my favorite local instagram influencer/blogger: Jasmine Nguyen! (@jasminewiin). If you're interested in or are already a nurse, I highly recommend following along on her instagram or on her blog where she dishes her favorite nursing tips and information to guide other fellow nurses and healthcare providers alike! Her wellness tips and overall content on her instagram is what I'm HERE FOR. I love her realness, authenticity, kindness and the yummy recipes and drinks she concocts! I am such a believer in cultivating your own "feed" (since, let's be honest, we spend so much time scrolling these days or on our phones in general) full of positive and inspiring things YOU like to look at (NOT things that make you feel bad or aren't the most positive), and Jasmine is someone I genuinely feel motivated and inspired by regularly: so to have her on this podcast was a true honor! Tune in to talk all things wellness, nursing, and what it's like to juggle a full-time job, be a part-time student AND have a full-time instagram business! Let's go.
