Trying Times

Making decisions can be tough, but at the same time, life can get a little tough too. Things are ever changing and when you're at a crossroads and have to make a decision of some sort, it can feel impossible. On the other hand, we are faced with many options and choices each and every day. So...this episode is all about decision fatigue and how this effects our lives on a regular basis.

Hope you enjoy :)

This one's inspired mostly by the idea of Valentine's day and what that "should" conventionally look like. I also sprinkle in some things I love to indulge in when it comes to self care, and self love. Hope you enjoy :)

Every time the holidays roll around, I take a moment to reflect on the year and how things really went. It can be something that feels uplifting, or maybe not at all and actually leaves me feeling lousy, but it’s worth doing nonetheless. I’m learning that regardless of how it goes, I deserve to learn more about myself throughout it all and treat myself along the way. 

Hope you enjoy :)

The days feel shorter and a whole lot darker. And once Halloween ends, it feels like the longest stretch to get to Christmas. That’s the episode, that’s what we chat about in this one (and of course some tips to help make this point in time go by a little easier)

Hope you enjoy :)

The title says it all. I’m a fan of spooky season, and all the things that come with it, mostly lol. In this one I share a bit about why I love Halloween so much, my ideal cozy and spooky night and how I’ll be spending it this year.

Hope you enjoy :)

The concepts of self expression and acceptance are those that a lot of us strive to grow in, but getting there is definitely not a smooth road. I wanted to talk about this with someone I’ve known for about half of my life, someone who’s always been a source of acceptance and courage in my life and many others, so meet my best friend Sam. Together we take a trip down memory lane and chat about the process of learning to express and accept yourself. 

Hope you enjoy :)

I should start by saying that I typically don’t like anything super scary….but I’ve recently gotten into psychological thrillers (which some could argue is the scariest thing ever). Do I find it unsettling at times? Yes. But do I continue to read them anyways? Yup. Anyways, this one is a finale to a mini series all about books I’ve read recently and what I enjoyed about them most.

Hope you enjoy :)

Okay so, following the episode before this one (that was introducing a mini series about some books and genres I’ve really enjoyed in the last year or so) I talked about Memoirs and some that I’ve really liked reading. This episode though…it’s all about romcoms. If you’re a fan of this genre, stay tuned.

Hope you enjoy :)
