UNFILTERED

In this episode I talk all about Imposter Syndrome and my struggles with it. I talk about how I struggled my freshman year, always doubting my intellect. Telling myself I wasn’t good enough, or smart enough … imagine if I put that energy into lifting myself up? I hope this episode can remind you that you deserve everything that happens to you. Be your own hype man, give yourself the love and grace you deserve. You have earned it. Heres the truth about imposter syndrome: it is just anxiety, and negative self talk … how can you think you’re great at anything if you don’t try?If you never start? If you constantly doubt yourself?

You are not an imposter, you’re just getting started :)

Hello Loves! 

I hope you are all doing well. I don't know about anyone else, but the last couple months, I have felt like. I kind of lost my groove, anyone else? Luckily for me, last week I for the first time in a while felt like ... I GOT THIS! Super fitting because this episode is all about being the BEST you! Living a life that aligns with your core values and builds HABITS. I am joined by the incredible Veronika Abrams that gives us all all the deets! She is so insightful, passionate, and knowledgable about her work. 

Whatever you are going through, I hope this episode gives you the motivation you need to accomplish your goals today, tomorrow or even next month. Rooting for you!

Hi Squad! 

Wow, this one was SO fun to make. Please enjoy coffee induced Hale, and let me know what you thing ;) No, but honestly, maybe a large expresso coffee at 10 pm is not the moves #whatdoesn'tkillyoumakesyoustronger! In this episode I answer anything and everything and while there aren't too many questions, I still think it was so much fun. Listen as a I talk for 2 minutes about the smoothie bowl I order. I know the world can seem hard and heavy so I hope this brightened your day/week/month up a little bit. As always, I'm thankful for each and every one of you.

Hi lovelies, 

Okay, this one is GOOD.  I am joined by the king, David Garnick. David, my dear friend and inspiration, bestows on us SO much wisdom. He talks about what Pride means to him, and ways you can still celebrate it, even amidst a pandemic. Then we discuss his coming out "story," and David gives recommendations on how to be honest and find your true self, while keeping your safety first and foremost. He also talks about ways you can become involved in your community, and his incredible summer plans. The positivity is literally radiating from this episode. I hope anyone and everyone is inspired to celebrate, advocate, or donate. Some resources:

Hi Lovies, 

In this episode I talk about how to get your "summer body," but with a twist ... I mean did you expect anything else? I discuss the importance of just moving your body, in whichever way feels right. Whether that be running, lifting, or just WALKING. I also explain that everyones healthy looks different, strong is beautiful, never forget that. It feels odd to return back to the normal content I had planned prior to the events that have been happening in our country. There is so much work to be done, and I hope this episode in come across as if I am disregarding that. Please do your research and look into the links in my bio. As always continuously educating ourselves is hard and heavy, but so necessary! Continue to amplify black voices, and let me know if you need any podcast recs. Thinking of everyone during these times. 

All my love, 

Hale

Hi Everyone, 

I hope you are okay ( doing well seems like a luxury, that I know many of us do not have right now). I knew I had to create an episode on Black Lives Matter, it was a fact not a desire. Regardless of how big or small your platform is, you must speak up about injustices that plague so many individuals. I know this episode is not nearly enough, I tried to say so much, but there is still so much to be said. I ask you to stay until the end, the last 40 minutes are other personal accounts from some of my black friends. The stories are moving and so personal, please listen fully and attentively. In the last two weeks so much has been learned, and done, keep this momentum going. Never stop, returning back to our "normal" is no longer an option, it never was. 

I am sending all my love, and more than that my prayers for a better world. I can feel it coming. 

Take care of yourselfs.

xx, 

Hale

Hi Lovies, 

This episode is all about my freshman year! I talk about all the struggles and successes you encounter in your first year. I hope this episode reminds you that not everyone is "thriving" when they go to college, in fact, to have that mindset becomes really defeating and overbearing! Do the best you can, be genuine, and have fun! Reminder that social media is a highlight real, and people are struggling even if they don't say it. As always, I feel so lucky to have this platform and talk about issues no one else wants to. 

I also wanted to say, I filmed this before George Floyd was murdered and for those reasons I do not really bring light to that tragedy. However, with everything going on I wanted to remind people to take action ( sign petitions, speak out, text numbers), and take care of yourselves. 

Have the best weekend you can.

Hi Lovies, 

In this episode I am joined by my bestie, Alicia Newman. This episode is all about running and how important it is to FUEL yourself. Seriously, a body can’t run on no energy. We talk about our experience with cross country and how even though someone might seem like they have the “perfect body”, everyone is struggling with something! Alicia has a lot of insight and she is even running in college #gobison! I hope this episode can help anyone who is struggling with body issues specifically within sports. Remember, your car can’t run without any gasoline. Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Lovies, 

Wow, we got a long episode today. In today's episode I talk all about high school. The good, the bad and the finsta fights .... just kidding (ahahha not really though). Whether you are in high school, just graduated or about to start it, I hope this episode can give you some helpful hints. My high school years were some of the best four years of my life, but also the hardest, and I don't want to hide that. I am so proud of whoo the person I was at 14,  turned out to be at 18 and I contribute a lot of that to all the lessons I learned throughout those four years. Wherever you are, whatever you're doing I'm sending you lots of love!

Hi Loves! 

I hope you all had a wonderful week, and if you are a student, that your finals season is wrapping up! In this episode I talk about why people always feel like they are sick at school. While taking care of yourself physically is SUPER important, so is taking care of your mental health. I share my experiences with constantly feeling super sick first semester, and what the REAL underlying cause of it was. I hope this episode can you give you some tips and tricks to return to school healthy and stay that way! Have a great weekend, and take care of yourselves.
