Shifting Into a New Season: Being More Intentional & Planning
Wednesday Nov 10, 2021
Wednesday Nov 10, 2021
Surprise! Bonus episode this week!
Do you ever have a shitty day that kind of wakes you up or shakes you into being like, I need things to change? Or maybe I'll blame it on Daylight Savings shorter days make everything worse too. Whatever it may have been, a chaotic combo has made me realize I need a SHIFT.
Shifting into a new season literally (winter is coming :( ) but also, figuratively. I NEED to be more intentional in many different aspects. With my time, with PLANNING, and with living life in general.
This episode is all about that shift from Sunday when I made the realization until today when I had a really good full day of filling up my cup and making me feel good.
I got home from my adventure and wanted to record about it.
And sending love to anyone else struggling lately.

Loss of My Dog Angel & Grieving
Wednesday Sep 08, 2021
Wednesday Sep 08, 2021
This episode was a hard one. Very emotional and had to stop recording several times to wipe my tears.
I talk all about the loss of my 16 year old dog, Angel, who was my soulmate, my best friend, and so much more than just a dog. She was my baby and I can't even put into words how much she meant to me.
I talk about our journey, her health battles, "preparing myself" for her passing as she grew an old age, how we made her last few days special, and how I was afterwards in my grief journey.
This episode was difficult to record and face and I have been putting it off for a while now. She passed away at the end of July in 2020. It is still hard for me to talk about and I miss her every single day.
I hope this episode helps you with any loss you may have had or may have in the future.
I talk about hard and emotional and real things because I want to let people know they are not alone and people understand them and are there to listen and support them. To talk about grief because it is hard and difficult and unique to each person and to each of their losses.
This is the hardest thing I've ever dealt with. Prepare for tears, love pouring out of me, and all that.
Thank you for letting me share this experience and relationship with you.
