Claw Clip Boy Storytime pt 4 | Leaving Toxic Love Nov 01, 2024

Show notes

The sentence that broke my heart was "How can ab*se be so gentle?"

As funny as all of this is 2 years later, I really am so proud of myself for leaving and healing bc this whole situation left me feeling like a shell of myself.

If you are experiencing something similar, I know first hand that it can go from "haha silly funny" to "this actually really hurts" SO fast.

It is NOT ok for someone to make you feel less than or insane even if you don't want a committed relationship.

You deserve respect and love that helps you fall in love with yourself even from a simple fling (aka from ANYONE in your life)

But at least we got the best claw clips out of this!! & wherever you are, I'm cheering you on

Claw Clip Boy Storytime pt 3 | A Narcissists View on Femininity Oct 14, 2024

Show notes

who knew my situationship would lead to a literal dissertation on the patriarchy.

but two VERY important things to note for this episode: if you are experiencing a similar situation, please know I understand how hard it is to leave but that it will genuinely never get better.

And two, you are meant for so much more than a life of sitting still and being "protected and provided for".

You absolutely deserve to be cherished, protected, spoiled, the whole 9 yards AND you don't need to do anything to earn that AND you can make something of your life without discrediting your 'worthiness' of being taken care of.

You can be powerful and nurtured.

LOVE U (go break up w your situationship <3)

Navigating Road Blocks & Career Shifts Sep 10, 2024

Show notes

Roadblocks happen FOR you. That feeling of uncertainty is trying to tell you something. It's trying to get you unsettled enough to ask questions and figure out what really is aligned with you. Roadblocks are the sign that you're growing.

I'm at a roadblock right now. It's something I can feel sitting uneasy in my chest. I can sense something shifting and I don't know where in the world it's going, but I know I'm probably supposed to go with it.

Figuring out what you want and how to get there is the question all of us are constantly asking- including me. So come along as I chat out my current mindset and make some cool breakthroughs when it comes to figuring out how to figure out what I want.

Let's dive right in :)

22 Things I've Learned by 22 Sep 01, 2024

Show notes

Your Virgo queen is speaking and she's got a LOT to say

This year has been unreal. I've learned so much, I've discovered so much about myself and I can easily say this has been one of the best years of my life. It's been such a rewarding year of being intentional with my energy and immersing myself in new ideas & concepts. I can't wait to yap it all to you in the next hour and half

So let's get right into it

Victim to Victor | Coming Out of Fight or Flight Jul 18, 2024

Show notes

Today we're diving into my favorite Nervous System Regulation techniques (NSR) to help you get to where you want to go by tapping into the feelings in your body.

When your body is stuck in a fight or flight response, your energy is being directed to solving a 'threat' instead of allowing you to create a life that you want. There's no time for arts and crafts when the troops are at war, so how do we bring these precious resources back home? With nervous system regulation. Sitting with yourself, calming yourself down, feeling what you need to feel, and giving yourself space to correct limiting beliefs & move forward.

My favorite techniques that we go over in the episode:

- Breath work (Box Breathing, Wim Hof)

- EFT Tapping

- Somatic Shaking

- Yoga

- Humming

- Body Awareness Meditation

Pt. 2 How To Make Affirmations Work For You | Law of Attraction Jun 04, 2024

Show notes

Where your focus goes, energy flows. Where are you focusing? The universe is literally always listening to your thoughts so first step, STOP COMPLAINING. We didn't come to this weird little world to be annoyed, pissed off, or to dread every single day that we wake up. We're here to explore, learn, love, be loved, be happy, have fun, and TRUST. So much of this comes down to just some mf trust. When you focus on the things that are going wrong over and over again, you're going to get more of that. And when you focus on how lovable, kind, and successful you are, that's exactly what you're going to get. I was listening to Abraham Hicks more this week and there was one self love episode that really really hit me(I'll link it below don't you worry). I was already going to speak about affirmations, but this just added another amazing layer on top. This was such a fun episode to record. Don't we all need a reminder from time to time that it's not necessary to constantly correct or be hard on ourselves? That we are still good even if we're in bed all day and can't seem to "get it together"? Even if you don't watch thru the whole video, at least read this part. The universe (God, Source, whatever you wanna call it) doesn't give a hoot if you get out of bed or run as hard as you can. You are loved anyways. Entirely, fully, no questions asked, you are good. You are the embodiment of love.

The Mindset Shift That's Changing My Life | How my "Manifesting" Journey is Going May 21, 2024

Show notes

The hardest part about "manifesting" is knowing where to start. If you let yourself get caught up in the 'how' you'll never learn to trust yourself. Because this is literally what we were made for as humans.

You can't wake up and NOT manifest- you're doing it 24/7.

That's the catch, there is no start and there is no end. This process is just about learning how to guide your energy in the direction that brings you everything you've ever wanted (aka just being happy) instead of living in the same patterns that have made your life suck I've broken down what I've learned into 4 steps that we will dive into every week. We will go over resources, application, self concept work, nervous system regulation, and a crap ton more (but in a way that makes it seem not so out there, because it's really not. It's all right there in your head) Then, after the 4 weeks of laying it all out, I'm releasing a Self Concept Course that you can hop in if you want to know how to come at this on day-to-day basis. It'll be the guide that I wish I had when I started this journey At the beginning of the year I told myself I would do whatever it took to stop reaching this intense feeling of burnout and the feeling of fighting tooth and nail just to survive. I wanted SO much more out of life and right now, I'm finding that. This episode is just skimming the surface of everything I've learned from submersing myself in books, podcasts, journaling, and application that has made me feel more alive than I thought possible Todays episode is just the explanation of the next month to get your head in the game (big girl pants=on) I can't freaking wait to get started! Genuinely the most life changing journey that I'm hyped to share with you
