EPISODE LXIV: BE YOURSELF OR BE CRAZY

I take about how unauthenticity can lead to so many problems.  It can make you question yourself, if you're doing everything right, am I here to do what I am supposed to do, why is this happening to me?  Owning yourself and being who you are is just one of the things you can do to become stronger, wiser, and happier.

THE RITUAL AND THE ROUTINE

 When I was in Arizona at the Civana resort, which is one of the best I have ever been to, if you haven't read my earlier post, we did something pretty cool. At 8am, we had an intention ceremony and 6pm or so, we did a gratitude ceremony. These were wonderful ideas and even though my day didn't end at that time, it was a good way to recap what happened that day. So since then, I have been trying hard to keep up with these two items and writing them in my journal. (read more)

EPISODE LXIII: IF THEY DON'T YOU DO

We give people all of us, especially when we believe we are close with them.  Whether it's someone you're interested in, a "good" friend, a prospective romantic relationship, or family member; there are times we feel like they aren't with us.  They don't appreciate us, and it is so hard to stop ourselves from chasing people down and convincing them we care about them.  So I just talk about learning how to let go of them and hold onto you with lots of grace and self love.

EPISODE LXII: RELAPSING INTO GREATNESS

 Sometimes we fall down, and we then get back up.  This could mean mental illness, addiction, eating disorders, etc.  The thing is we have the chance to make a great comeback and be victorious.  I talk about my own slip this past week and I get into many of these different items.  It isn't about the loss.  It is how you respond.
