    • Moments where I connected to an older version of me
    • My realization that healing doesn't always mean staying safe

  • 55. Things That Actually Help

    In today’s insight episode, I talk about the small, ordinary things that help me feel human again, especially on days when everything feels a little heavy or disconnected.

    In this episode, I share:

    The simple, everyday things that help me feel more grounded

    Why small comforts matter more than big breakthroughs

    How to permit yourself to choose ease

    The difference between regulation and self-improvement

    A gentle reminder that you don’t have to do more to be enough

  • 54. Discovering Your Gift & Truly Accepting Yourself

    In today’s insight episode, I talk about discovering your gift and your purpose. Not by becoming someone else, but by finally accepting who you already are. I share the story of how I discovered mine, the moments that led me toward self-acceptance, and how your deepest sensitivities and quirks often hold the key to why you’re here.

    In this episode, I share:

    • How I found my own gift
    • Why comparing yourself blocks you from discovering your purpose
    • How self-acceptance leads to clarity
    • Practical ways to recognize your natural gifts
    • Why your purpose never requires you to abandon who you are

    Journal prompts of the week:

    1. What parts of you have been here all along, the traits, interests, habits, and sensitivities you have always had, and what do they reveal about your natural gift?
    2. What do I naturally do that other people come to me for?

  • 51. Trusting Yourself Through Anxiety: Working With Your Mind, Not Against It

    Our brains lie to us. Not because they hate us, but because they love us and want to protect us. That’s why intrusive thoughts and scary feelings appear. It's our brain’s way of keeping us safe from the things we don’t understand. But that doesn’t mean we have to let them control us.

    In this insight episode, I explore:

    • My experience with OCD and intrusive thoughts, especially in my romantic relationship (ROCD)
    • How to stop letting anxiety control you through self-compassion
    • How to work with your unconscious brain, not against it
    • Why an off-day isn’t a setback, and how to find peace again when your mind feels like your enemy
    • Social media, fear mongering, how to tell the difference between anxiety & intuition

    Journal prompt of the week:

    In what ways have I already proven that I can trust myself again?

  • 50. Why You Overshare & How to Stop Doing it When You Have Anxiety

    I have always been someone who overshares. This is a trait I have come to love about myself, but there are times when oversharing is unnecessary and causes me an immense amount of distress and anxiety. This episode is for those times. In today's insight episode, I discuss oversharing - why we do it, how to stop doing it, and how trauma and anxiety can play a role in it.

    In this episode, I discuss:

    • Three common reasons people tend to overshare.
    • My own personal experience with oversharing.
    • Coping mechanisms & strategies to become more intentional with what we share.

    Journal prompt of the week:

    Ask yourself: What are some things I wish others knew about me, and how can I share those things more intentionally?
