This week, I sat down with one of my favorite people! Tay AKA mrfrequentflyermiles (on IG).

I hope you guys enjoy and be sure to come back for part two! Thank you for being here. TikTok creator I Mention: @juixxe Tay's YouTube:  @Motivatio...

With getting closer to the end of my graduate program (humble flex fr) I find myself with higher levels of anxiety about being done. I've found myself wanting to take more or longer breaks in an attempt to push off the inevitable of graduating. When I started this program, I told myself I have the duration of the program to "fix" myself and my own mental health status. But life had o...

April went by so fast I didn't even finish blinking!! But I had some wonderful highlights this past month also so I wanted to share those. Bands mentioned: Our Last Night Bad Omens Sleep Token Thank you for being here. www.becomingmiriam.com IG: becomingmiriampodcast Producer IG: dorayproduction

Story time about how I got a (thankfully) not so bad flat tire that led to a debilitating panic attack where I sat in my car for an hour before being able to do anything.... (-__-) LOL and then lets explore some bigger issues that are clearly present here. Thank you for being here. www.becomingmiriam.com IG: @ becomingmiriampodcast Producer IG: @ dorayproductions

Something I have struggled with for a long time is my personal views and definitions of "good" or "close" relationships. I am constantly finding myself feeling let down or lonely because I do not have relationships that meet the mental standard or expectations I feel they're supposed to meet. Ultimately, I know these are my own faults and that I need to re-write these ideas...

We have our first guest on the podcast this season!! Jesus felt like the perfect fit to start off with bringing guests back on the podcast. Hope you enjoy this weeks discussion about our friendship, his podcast journey, his mental health, his podcast, and more! Can't wait to bring him back on and to have more guests on the podcast soon! Thanks for being here. Stay in touch: IG: @ becomingmiria...

Let's recap some of my favorite highlights from the first quarter of 2024! Throwing some positivity back into the podcast is important so y'all know I'm not only this sad depressed person LOL. In regard to my actual quarter goals, I've failed! But thats the beauty of having a fresh start now in quarter two! Thank you for being here. www.becomingmiriam.com IG: @ becomingmiriampodcas...

I'm feeling like therapy is not working for me right now and I'm thinking it might be time to break up with my therapist again. Let's explore why.. The reality is that I am not doing as well as I pretend to be doing. I've become a really dark person, it's exhausting! I am constantly outside of my window of tolerance. Thank you for being here.

Welcoming to the Becoming Miriam Podcast Season Three! Forreal this time! lol When this collab was first brought up in a chat with Jesus (my producer and friend) I found myself hesitating and filled with fear that he would regret wanting to work with me, that I would let him down and it would just be better to not even try. And that lead to the reflection that I do that in all areas of my life. I...

Honestly after listening to this I hate it I felt so awkward and uncomfortable talking for some reason 😂 but oh well let's share my thoughts and headspace right now.

Happy 2024! To kick off the new year and what I'm calling Season Three of the Becoming Miriam Podcast, I wanted to share how my new year went and were my mind is at during new year season. Spoiler, its not pretty lol. I've also made the decision that during this year I'm going to try to push myself to talk more about how I feel, deal, and manage grief within my life. After all, this is...

I know this year has been all over the place for me, especially here on the podcast. It truly feels like I lived so many different lifetimes this year. It is crazy how much happened this year. The first half of this year was a completely different universe compared to the second half for sure. From people coming back into my life, losing more loved ones, having no hope for anything, to deciding to...

Let me be clear, I'm venting here about my feelings of overwhelm but they are the good kind of overwhelm! I'm not trying to come off as complaining that I have too much to do. I WANT to do all these things and more! But as we've learned together, I got damn ADHD and my executive functioning is trash! So I struggle with being able to organize and plan and execute a routine that would al...

I wanted to jump back into the podcast and start with a general overview of what I've been up to this summer! BTW, I think my fan is on its last leg! Sorry if you can hear it struggling toward the end LOL I should have turned it off but it was too freaking hot so I needed it! Thanks for listening! Talk soon New cosplay IG: dressupdarlingmiri

ehh just here to celebrate my 29th birthday LOL

I've literally uploaded this three times how annoying! Video pods are back! Well at least for this week LOL. I'm slowly working on setting myself up for success with a podcast set up to hopefully help me with consistency. But keep your expectations low here.

I guess this ended up just being a full detailed recap of my first anime convention! It was a huge success and brought so much joy to me. Can't wait for more!

Another insightful therapy session I wanted to share this week. I was able to identify my main thread being relationships as a common struggle I have in all aspects of my life. I know I struggled in this area but I wasn't aware of just how major this influenced me. It was actually really sad to sit back and realize I don't really feel safe in any relationship in my life. Really good sessio...

I miss her everyday.

First 'Therapy Thoughts' of what I'm calling season two of the podcast. I actually really like this recap as I think it was an important session. Today was my first therapy session since finding out of my close friend Denisa's passing. It was a hard session of course, but I think it was important and will be impactful as I continue down this journey of growth, healing, and becoming. It's difficult...

TW: Cancer, death, loss, grief

In some happy news, I was peer pressured to get out of my house and go on a last minute adventure to Disneyland for my bestfriends birthday! I hate Disney LOL so this was me giving it another chance and it went to well (minus spraining my foot)! Somehow I survived and actually enjoyed the full day from open to close (so long!). I'm glad I forced myself to go I know it was very much needed.  M...

I wanted to share a few important updates in my life. As I've discussed before,  I've been struggling for a while now, while also angrily refusing to take steps to feel better. I wanted to stay stuck in this bad place. But it has gotten too difficult and I just know I can't keep going like this anymore. So I'm finally taking the first steps to getting better, I'm back on my ADHD medication an...

This week got a wee bit more sappy. lol But the reality is I've been struggling to accept the fact that I am moving forward and "healing" I guess. I feel guilty after having good days or fun moments.  In other news, preparations for my goddaughters quince are going on and although I may be the worlds worst godmother, I'm doing my best to be present for her.
