The Power of The Late Bloomer w/ Lauren LoGrasso :) Nov 02, 2022

Show notes

Do you consider yourself a late bloomer? Do you beat yourself up on your journey? Condemning yourself for not moving “Quickly enough?” or taking, “Big enough steps?” Me too. But I think I’m about to stop doing that so much and I have so ideas on how you can too.

Today I want to talk about the power and beauty of being a late bloomer, why it’s okay if you take a little longer to make a move in your life/dreams and how to have more patience and grace for yourself as a creative and human.

Also- this revelation was brought to me by a...fruit tree? YES. You heard that right, honey. It's about to get weird and woo woo in here. Time to unleash. Join me in dropping the charges on yourself, learning to trust and believe in divine timing and how to invest in the art of allowing. Here we go!

200 Episodes: Lessons, Revelations & Stuff I Still Don't Get + Why Regret is a Myth & Unleashing Is an Inside Job Sep 28, 2022

Show notes

Can you believe???? My little baby (podcast) is all grown up. When I started this show all I knew was I wanted to use my voice to connect with other people and I really wanted to do that through a podcast AND that I knew repressed creativity was the cause of so much of the world's suffering and I wanted to help people unleash. What I have learned, the community I've gained and the love I've poured into this show and it has poured into me has been so much greater than what I could have anticipated. Through it I have gotten to meet some of the kindest, most talented souls in the world (you,) talk with my heroes and discover and bring myself to the table in a more authentic way than I knew possible. So today we're taking a trip down memory lane - I'm going to share some of my favorite Unleash Lessons and my top takeaways from 200 episodes.

From this, you'll learn:

-Why inspiration is great, but at the end of the day, unleashing is an Inside Job

-Why you should never let fear of making a mistake rule you

-Why going through pain is necessary sometimes in order to get the life you want

-Why maybe multi-passionate life has its drawbacks and ways to overcome them/focus for a time

-Why Planning is overrated

-The importance of consistency (and why it's hard AF for me)

-How to overcome a creative block from yourself or others with the negativity bias antidote

-How the artist alchemizes pain

-Why let go, let God really works for sensitive souls trying to achieve a dream

-How Morning Pages have saved my life (and my gentle plea that you try them, too)

-Why ageism is BS -creativity does NOT have an age limit

-Why regret is a myth

-Why just because something is more popular, doesn't mean it's better

AND MORE!

Show notes

Do you feel overly attached to outcomes? Do you struggle to tolerate discomfort and, because of this, often give up? Are you struggling to find your purpose and the ‘why’ underneath what you want? Then, honeybuns, you are in the right place!

Today, I’m sharing some revelations that have been on my mind in the past few weeks having to do with the importance of tolerating disappointment, finding a why that's healthy for you and balancing your desire for greatness with the knowledge that who you are is the best thing about you.

From this episode, You'll Learn:

The importance of developing tolerance for discomfort
Why I've realized I don’t need to be a monk and I don’t need to be a capitalist drone (And WTF that means in practice haha)
How to combine your inner-worth with your dreams
Why the message you want to bring forth matters more than the way you bring it forth
Why it's best to wait to pursue something until you can find a why that is healthy for you.
The power of remembering how many people are rooting for you
Sometimes the key to feeling more yourself and just getting back to doing what you love with good people
Unadulterated joy and passion still rise to the top - IE The Corn Song!
