It's easy to feel overwhelmed and frustrated when your plans don't unfold the way you expected. But deviation from the original path may actually be the best thing to happen for you! Instead of seeing obstacles as signs to give up or sink into a victim mentality, view them as an opportunity to step into your creative potential. Even in the face of extreme adversity, you get to choose whether your...

Most of us are guilty of over-apologizing for things that aren't really our responsibility at some point. Unfortunately, chronically apologizing can make you feel less confident and dim your inner magnetic radiance. In this episode of The Wellness Wave podcast, we explore how over-apologizing might be hindering your success and how you developed this destructive habit in the first place. The good...

Are you an addict? Your first instinct might be to say no, but I bet as soon as your phone dings your eyes are darting to it faster than you can consciously process it. You habitually grab your devices and spend hours a day scrolling. Social media is a WONDERFUL tool. I've found a way to express myself, connect with like-minded individuals, and even meet my partner of 4 years. But when does this d...

I turn 25 next month and it's my 25th podcast episode, which is wild to think about. What better way to celebrate than bringing The Wellness Wave onto YouTube? Let's chat about some hard truths of topics from acc...

We're constantly seeing content about becoming "that girl" across Pinterest, Instagram, and YouTube, but I personally feel I've reached a point of evolving past that. I'll be 25 in August (where are my Leo babies at?), and I feel that I've been transitioning into womanhood. In this episode, I share what that means to me. That woman is aware and present. She takes responsibility for her actions. Ho...

Ahhhh summer! The vibes this season are coastal Grandma meets chic cowboy, and I am here for it. This time of the year we're getting excited for our vacation plans, afternoons lounging by the pool, late nights in deep conversation with crickets chirping in the background, giant bowls of fresh fruit, and living in a bikini and baggy cutoff shorts. I'm living for it! At the same time, a lot of peopl...

Life has gotten a bit chaotic for me lately. I can't complain because it's all good things! However, I'm realizing a few things: I definitely spent the past few years recovering from a bad case of burnout. When life gets busy is when it's more important than ever to take care of yourself. The fundamentals - sleep, water, and nutrition - really make all the difference. In this episode, I dive into...

I'm fired up about this multi-part series because we're diving deep into the concepts this podcast was fundamentally inspired by: the cycles of life and how honoring these rhythms is the true key to wellness. Nearly everything in nature operates in some type of cyclical or wavelike pattern, and we as human beings are no exception. Learn how to biohack your highs and lows as we explore cycles from...

Do you want to know the secret to a HEALTHY and THRIVING life?! Having fun! When we take everything too seriously, we put pressure on our circumstances in a way that takes away our sense of safety rather than giving us a dose of healthy stress that turns us into DIAMONDS!For the majority of us, our basic survival needs are met. This can lead to boredom, which can lead to us actively seeking out st...

It's the season of love, baby, so we're chatting all things self-love and self-worth. It is so important to cultivate a healthy relationship with yourself through self-pleasure, connecting with your inner world, and taking yourself on dates. If you can't get to know yourself, you can't jump into getting to know others to your full potential. I also talk about why it's essential to view our emotion...

Why do we struggle so deeply to stick to our routines and stay consistent with the systems we set to achieve our goals? At the core, it's because we lack self-respect. We don't believe we are truly worthy of achieving our goals, so we fail to be a parent to our wounded inner child. From subconscious programming and trauma we've acquired throughout our lives, we might fall victim to limiting belief...

As the initial new year buzz wears off, I'm here to re-energize you with my personal ins and outs for 2023.

The mold is too small for you to expand to your full potential, so you need a change. You might want to escape your current matrix, but without a clear vision of where you want to land once you exit, you may end up somew...

Let's be honest- following your dreams is f'ing scary, even with the right mindset. But are you using escapism to avoid disappointment from not making your dreams a reality? Whether you want to start a business, get into a new career, start a family, or move across the country, you are more than capable of bringing your manifestations to life. The only person holding you back is yourself. In this...

In the modern era of Amazon Prime and the iPhone, our willpower is being challenged to the max.
