In today's episode I unpack the value of syncing your life to your menstrual cycle! I believe that society is made with a very masculine focus. We live in systems that often don't honor the cyclical nature of women. Many of us are unaware that our menstrual cycle has four different phases with different hormone levels in each one. Syncing your life to your menstrual cycle helps your body work with and not against your body in each phase. This topic is so important because many of the health issues women experience is linked to hormonal imbalance. Tune in to hear all about it!

In today's episode I discuss the fact that faith without works is dead. Understanding + valuing your faith in knowing things will fall into place favorably is great, but it's equally important to understand and acknowledge the work you have to put in.

Let's talk about how to increase the consistency surrounding it!

In today's episode I discuss the importance of strengthening your digital boundaries! In my eyes digital spaces are a double-edged sword.

Digital spaces have power and require the proper boundaries. Tune in to discuss what this looks like!

In today's episode I discuss the importance of not remaining hostage to an identity. Identity can be defined as, the qualities, beliefs, personality traits, and distinguishing character of an individual.

In today’s episode I discuss the importance of understanding and valuing gentle self-accountability. I believe in this life there are many seasons that call for us to take an honest look at ourselves and asses the ways we're standing in our own way, creating a roadblock, repeating a cycle, and more. At times it can be easy for us to see how external factors contribute, but it can be difficult for us to verbalize our own contribution. Tune in to hear me discuss this in relation to all aspects of life, and why I find this to be important!

In today’s episode I discuss the importance of valuing faith over fear. In life we will go through many seasons, in some seasons we won’t know what’s next or what we’re doing. We’ll face harships, experience discomfort, loss, and more. Life comes with its highs + lows, and in our lows we can find ourselves clinging to fear. This isn’t beneficial because fear is unreliable, fear can arise from existent and non-existent threats. Our faith is a constant reliable source that we can turn to. Tune into hear what I have to say about this!

Tune in to hear me cover what this hyper-fixation may look like, harmful trends, and how we can seek to change that hyper-fixation by implementing healthy balance!

In today’s episode I discuss the aspects that encompass a healthy relationship. When I say the word relationship I’m not centering on romantic relationships, I'm focusing on all close relationships. I believe far too many people grow up in homes where healthy relationships are never displayed. In addition, many people don’t have good/healthy experiences in relationships, and have unlearning that needs to take place. This topic holds so much importance because the people we develop close relationships with have a large influence on our life. It’s important we actively seek and create healthy relationships. Tune in to hear me unpack the foundation for a healthy relationship!
