As You Are

From concert crowds to the cute things humans do, today's episode is filled with gentle reminders that as we pause to notice the tiny ways that humanity is good, our view of the good will only expand. We hope that this conversation can offer you rest in remembering what continues to be true: there is good in the world, and not only is it worth fighting for - you are also an essential part of it.

A grounding gift from us to you. We love you!

As we each navigate the rapidly shifting circumstances in 2020, we all have moments of "why do I feel this way?! What is happening?!" In this episode, we break down the what and why by taking a journey through the stages of grief, providing a little context (and validation!) to the individual and collective experiences happening this year.

"Grief is in two parts. The first is loss. The second is the remaking of life." - Anne Roiphe

Two months ago, we sat down together and recorded this episode, not knowing what was soon to come. In the midst of this pandemic, we hope our conversation can bring a little light to the darkness and remind you, as always, that wherever you are, however you may be feeling, you are enough - exactly as you are. We love you!

You can sit with us! In this episode, we break down the barriers or mental blocks we can build against belonging. As we dispel limiting beliefs or fears that hold us back from showing up with true authenticity, we focus on the most important aspect of belonging - belonging first to ourselves.

In our season two opener, we're talking all about rest! Join us as we discuss the whys behind continual burnout, resistance to rest, and the different types of effective rest we can practice to feel truly filled.

Join us for our season one finale as we discuss the changing seasons of life! In this episode, we break down how we can find purpose and presence in every season, no matter how it looks. (We also offer about a million thank yous for sharing this season with us, and if you’re reading this, please take at least a million more). We love you and can’t wait to share more together in season two! 

No judgment, but we’ve all been judgy, right? In this episode, we tackle the unfortunately universal experience of misunderstanding and judgment - both the giving and receiving - and how we can better engage with authentic empathy and understanding. Join us as we discuss ways to better learn each other’s stories, honor other paths, and ultimately love and accept each individual as they are, no matter where they’re walking.

Join us this week in our very first bonus episode - a meditation guided by our co-host, Shelby. Whether you are a seasoned pro or have yet to try meditation out, this practice is here to help you come back to yourself and return home to the intuition and self acceptance that already lives inside of you.

 Join us as we sit down for a conversation with Jenny Cooper of Broken to Beautiful - a powerhouse of love and light whose message to the world is that your brokenness can be made beautiful. Through speaking, leading Kintsugi workshops, and much more, Jenny is on a mission to share vulnerably, connect deeply, and remind women of their inherent worth.

We know that vulnerability creates connection, and what's more vulnerable than asking for, accepting, or offering help? In this episode, we break down the fears, stigmas, and incredible importance of each of these actions - exploring how together, they create the cornerstone of any meaningful connection in life.

Life can get really overwhelming, and when it does, sometimes our knee-jerk reaction is to numb out with quick fixes that don't actually fix much. (Ever fallen down a black hole of Buzzfeed videos? Maybe gotten swept away in a two-minute turned two-hour Instagram scroll? Or, maybe even been tempted to cut panic-bangs thinking they'd solve everything?! You're in good company, friend. We've ALL been there!) Join us as we talk through five practical ways to get intentional and find more peace and presence in our everyday lives, no matter how stressful our season.

Having a vision of what you want to achieve in life is key, and goals are the best way to get there. However, as we’ve all experienced, not all goals stick or stay with us - some have us falling off the wagon again and again. In this episode, we examine the WHY of the goals we set and how we can set more realistic, successful, and compassionate goals to create the life we want.
