  • 58. What No One Tells You About Being in Your Twenties
    Jul 28 2024

    Some things I am learning:

    1. How to normalize the flux of knowing, then not knowing, and realizing that you never really knew anything at all.
    2. How to accept the wavering feelings of complete clear-hearted confidence followed by the indescribable uncertainty + fear of "am i doing anything right"
    3. The bliss and simplicity of the inevitable rediscovery of our childhood self as the pathway to all that we are and all that we will become.
    4. That we heal not to deal with our pain, but to learn how to accept our joy.

    + All the rest in this episode.

  • 57. Healing the Wounded Feminine + Masculine: Balancing Energy while Moving from the Heart, Finding Safe Spaces, & Embracing Community with Sian Camile (Author + host of Apricity)
    Jul 21 2024

    Today's episode is a conversation with a girl after my own heart, Sian Camile.

    Sian is a beautiful, soulful woman who truly leads with love and creates spaces for creativity to flourish.

    Her presence is comforting and connected & the wisdom of her insights feel like a soothing balm for the soul.

    In this episode, we talk about

    • The Divine Energies: Masculine & Feminine (+ How they're Differentiated from Gender)
    • Symptoms of The Wounded Feminine
    • Healing the Heart + Moving from Love
    • Balancing the Dualities: Light + Dark
    • Nuances of Womanhood, Dating, and Breakups
    • How Sian curates and creates community for other people through her Writing Workshops
    • Her perspective on vulnerability as a superpower and how breaking the barrier to allowing oneself to be seen is the key to bonding + relational connectivity with others
    • Conscious living in your 20's: Finding Your Community


    Whether it's the similarities we share in both being writers, podcast hosts, or having Water, Air, and Earth in our big three (Sian: Cap Sun, Gemini Rising, Cancer Moon / Me: Pisces Sun, Virgo Rising, Aquarius Moon), this episode is an embodiment of Sian & I's kindred spirits.

    Enjoy <3

  • 56. Conquering Procrastination & Perfectionism: Mastering Self-Discipline with Softness
    Jul 14 2024
    Productivity that feels nourishing is rare these days. When quantity out-rules quality, we feel burnt out by the pressure to produce. The tendency to put things off, look to our left and see something "better," and silently stay in our chamber of consumption, rather than creation is far too pervasive in today's age.So, how do we actually equip ourselves to separate what we want to do from what we "have" to do, create from a place of empowerment, and share our magic with the world? How do we resist the hustle-culture that leads to burnout while also being honest with ourselves about if we're showing up in a way that aligns with our highest self?On this episode, we take a look at the psychology of perfectionism and discuss ways to overcome the subconscious beliefs and patterns that keep us frozen. Through actionable steps and a mindset shift, we can slowly take aligned action in the every day to set our own standard for success, and silence the inner critic.(A very fun exercise is included to identify this voice + overcome it!!)CHAPTERS:0:00 - 5:35 - Introduction & Episode overview 5:35: The (Unholy) Trinity: Perfectionism, Self-Sabotage, & Procrastination7:45: Personifying our Limiting Beliefs (Ft.
