Make Your Damn Bed

Latest Episodes:

Day 189 || Opinions Optional Aug 13, 2021

Show notes

Having an opinion about everything isn’t necessary all the time. Sometimes, we may just want to listen. Sometimes we are around people we don’t feel super comfortable sharing our opinions around, sometimes we may not have an opinion on the subject at all - it doesn’t matter what the reason - as long as we understand that it’s not our job to entertain, educate, or inform anyone of anything when we don’t want to.

Day 188 || Delayed > Instant Gratification Aug 12, 2021

Show notes

Take advantage of the times when your energy is looking to serve a future you, as opposed to the now you - by leaning into the moments when you can delay your reward and create a longer window of enjoyment, peace and bliss for yourself.

Find what feels good not only in the moment - but in the long term as well.

Day 187 || Resource Protections Aug 11, 2021

Show notes

The system is programmed to steal your resources just as it is programmed to steal the earth’s resources. They’re fracking you for labor and consumerism.

Start by protecting your own resources. Your energetic, creative, intellectual, conversational, financial, emotional, physical resources are all incredibly valuable just like your time - and all of those resources deserved to be treated as such.

Day 186 || Self Advocate Aug 10, 2021

Show notes

Avoiding communication is one of the fastest ways to feel isolated in a room full of people. Bring yourself closer to the people in your life, by being honest with them and respecting them enough to trust them with knowing what is on your mind.

Day 185 || Conversational Interviews Aug 09, 2021

Show notes

You’re a good human regardless of if you’ve charmed the socks off of everyone around you or not. Stop exhausting yourself and those around you with this unspoken pressure to be the star of every experience. You can step up and ask questions - but if it’s not comfortable for either party - what is the damned point?

Day 184 || See a Need Fill a Need Aug 08, 2021

Show notes

If you have the energy - don’t be afraid to step up and fill needs before they need to be filled as long as you remember that it’s not your responsibility to be useful all of the time or ever, honestly. Instead of thinking you always have to be of use, allow yourself to simply be - and remember your worth remains unflinching - even when you aren’t the one to save the damned day.

Day 183 || Grownup Baby Knows No Better Aug 07, 2021

Show notes

Just like a baby’s cry - we may not initially know what need needs tending to but the more we learn about an individual the more we may understand about their cries and appropriately be able to decipher between them. That said, it’s not our job to pick up for everyone else. The only person you are responsible for is yourself. Being the caretaker for everyone around you is not only taxing, but impossible. Knowing that everyone just wants to be seen but it’s not your job to ensure they feel seen is a fine balance that takes practice. With time it’ll get easier. But if you’re ever irritated with someone or confused on why a grown up is behaving in the way that they are - it typically comes from a place of lack and fear. If they didn’t feel so unheard - maybe they wouldn’t be so loud about it.

Day 182 || Giant Babies in Grown Up Costumes Aug 06, 2021

Show notes

Even those people you truly believe have their shit together - don’t. Everyone is simply trying their best and there are certain things that every single human struggles with. No exceptions. Sure, some people have advantages that have set them ahead. Some people have good role models to show them the way. Some people have more time, money, and resources to get them ahead. But even still, with every fucking advantage known to man, people struggle with life. 99% of us are faking it at some capacity and some of us have successfully convinced ourselves that we’re really doing it - but in reality - our society is complicated. Getting it all done all the time and still staying mentally stable is nearly impossible without help. The fact of the matter is - we’re all just pretending because that’s what we're taught to do.

Day 181 || Create the Dream Aug 05, 2021

Show notes

If all you want to do on vacation is eat sleep and read - start doing that shit now instead of waiting to spend all your money on that trip to Bali where youre gonna end up doing the same shit. I have talked about the importance of finding the vacation in your day to day but now I am encouraging you to create it.

Day 180 || Human Detox Aug 04, 2021

Show notes

When was the last time you detoxified your energy from other humans? When was the last time you went into the woods or the beach or the lake or the park all by your damn self? When was the last time you were in charge of all of your decisions? When was the last time you were in control and actually TOOK control with your best interest at heart?
