#224: "Hot Girl Summer" is a phrase that became popular over the years and often emphasizes on living your best life, looking and feeling your best, and most likely, doing all of that while being single. But just like any season, it's just an energetic shift that you need to tap into and on this episode, Emily shares what she's focused on in this upcoming season of life and how she's choosing to focus on 2-3 specific areas of life, instead of being focused on silly nuances.

How can you make progress in what's important to you and maybe not have a set decision on whether you're going to be single or not?

After all, shouldn't you always be living your "hot best life", regardless of season?

#223: The irony in getting what you want is an absolute paradox--because it involves letting go of the desire itself. What most of us don't realize is that the more we want something, the more we create resistance and friction to get it. We are subconsciously telling ourselves that we don't have it and as a result, we approach it from a feeling of scarcity and fear.

This concept applies in all areas of life; from romantic relationships (especially the early phase), professional work, personal goals, etc. Emily shares on this solo episode how she has used the Hawkins Scale of Consciousness to become aware of the frequency she operates at on a daily basis and how she can continue to rise to show up at a higher vibration and attract those in the same frequency into her life. Tune in to hear Emily's findings over the past few months and the differences she has seen with tapping into her level of consciousness.

#219: For many years, Emily had this "3 bucket theory" when it came to financial security and balance. These three buckets are the following: Your own wealth, Partner's wealth, and Family wealth. If you get lucky in life, you'll have all three. But the most important key to know in this "3 bucket approach"? The most reliable bucket is YOUR OWN.

This concept and thought process came about as Emily observed in her upbringing and young adult years the way it impacted women's lives when women over-relied on their male partner to provide a certain lifestyle or material goods, instead of focusing on ways they can have that life "with or without that man".

While your bucket is the most important and the most reliable, it doesn't hurt to have 2 or 3 of the buckets (if you're lucky). Tune in to this solo episode to hear Emily's thought process and sweet spot in financial independence and securing the other buckets.

Emily dives into her personal version of an adulting "life hack" where she shares her approach and reflection on how she shifted from early to mid 20s and other specific hacks like how she sometimes travels for free through points earned from credit cards.

#216: On this raw talk segment, Emily brings back Natalie Barbu, Founder & CEO of Rella and YouTube creator, to the podcast. Instead of diving into similar topics like past conversations, such as entrepreneurial journeys and building their businesses, Natalie and Emily sit down to have an open chat (just like they usually do at dinner) about their current thoughts on dating, relationships, friendships, and much more.

Topics discussed:

• How to recognize when you're self-sabotaging and creating stories in your head about something that isn't true
• Removing jealousy from relationships
• The grief of losing a best friend and partner after a relationship
• How to be open and honest in the dating phase without playing games
• Whether Natalie and Emily think if a guy "likes other girls' photos" on social media matters
• Respectfully telling a guy when you're not interested instead of "ghosting"
• Overcoming past hurt, such as cheating in former relationship
• How to make the "first move" as a woman, while also maintaining the standard of having the guy court you and "pursue" his interest in you

#215: We are the average of the five people we surround ourselves with most - and that includes the people we go to when seeking advice or feedback.

Have you ever reflected on who you are seeking feedback from? Do these people help you rationalize the thought process and balance it with your emotions? Do these people always side with you, giving you confirmation bias? Or do they help you think outside of the box and look at a situation from a different angle?

It's so important to be mindful of who we are going to for feedback (not necessarily advice) and Emily dives into three questions you can ask yourself before considering who you should go to for outside feedback.
