#372 - 10 Things I Wish I’d Known In My 20s Jul 01, 2024

Show notes

As often happens when we go through life, we learn things along the way. And sometimes we learn things that we so desperately wish we had learned earlier. Does that negate their value now? No. Is learning part of the process? Of course. But I think we can learn a lot about ourselves now by acknowledging what we have already learned. Since it’s middle of summer energy, this felt like a great time to share ten things I wish I’d known in my 20s. Let’s jump right in.

#370 The Ins and Outs of Summer Reading Jun 17, 2024

#365 - How to Have an Easier Maycember May 13, 2024

We know the feeling of Maycember. May has a similar energy to the beautiful chaos of December, but we forget it’s like that until we’re in it. I never remember how crazy May becomes until literally right now, and then it feels too late. If that’s you, this episode will help.

#364 When Life Feels Like a Fire Hose May 06, 2024

Show notes

Sometimes life feels like a fire hose, a constant stream of events or tasks or humans or needs or stimulation that wear you down, metaphorically soak you through, and create an environment where what you need keeps getting pushed to the back of the line. In those times, what do we do?

Today, I’m going to share four things to keep in mind when life feels like a fire hose (one is super duper practical, promise!).
