58 | Let yourself do the hard things, fail, and ultimately live life

It’s been a hot minute but I’m back with some observations on living a fuller life, it starts with hobbies but it’s so much more than that. I touch on some of the societal problems I’m seeing (and have experienced for myself), how to be more intentional with your time and Of course, some common themes emerge, namely that we need to be less online. Get back your creative spark and prioritize trying things out for yourself. Embrace that you may fail, that you can do hard things and delayed gratification is worth it.

57 | Finding solace through structure, why we resist routine and how it can support us

In this episode of the podcast I talk about what has been supportive and provided me with solace as I go through changes and uncertainty in life. In particular, I talk about structure, consistency, responsibility and showing up for ourselves and others. Plus, I delve into how these things can support us and why we might be resistant to it.

56 | Getting comfortable with not knowing where you're going & examining the urge to rush

In this episode of the podcast, I discuss our need to control, plan, and ultimately obsess over the future and how to make peace with the unknown. Can we accept that life is out of our control? Can we embrace not knowing every step forward? Is it OK not to know where our life is going? I’ve been through a huge life change, and have a few thoughts on how to let go of all this so you can be more accepting of yourself and the chaos that is life.

55 | Is external validation a bad thing? Examining internal vs external validation through the 3 feminine archetypes

Why do we seek external validation so much? Is it always a bad thing? Join me in this episode where I discuss how I stopped obsessing over what others think and began to stand up for myself while also honouring the feelings of others. It’s all tied into my journey from “maiden” (in the feminine archetypes) to more “mother” and perhaps it will resonate with you as well, regardless of where you are in your life.
