Dear Diary- The Self Love Podcast

The stories we tell ourselves provide an insight into our subconscious minds: our fears, desires and ambitions. When we reflect on these stories, we can learn more about ourselves – what our values are, what we view as meaningful and important. Many of the stories that we've told ourselves for most of our lives are stories that once served us and kept us feeling 'safe" but no longer do.  You’...

Sometimes healing doesn't look like big breakthroughs and revelations. Sometimes it looks like small and repeated moments of self awareness and getting beneath every doubt, every worry, every insecurity, every hurt, every trigger every negative belief or emotion until you reach the cause or until you finally realize what belongs to you and what doesn't.   Shedding your layers is the beginning...

Im finding out more and more that the entire experience of this self love, growth & healing journey is all about remembering who you are & why you're here.

Does it ever feel like your life is passing you by? Like each moment is slipping away from you? Or maybe that you are wasting these precious moments being depressed or doubtful about the past or anxious and fearful about the future? Almost like you're living on auto pilot — going through the motions but not actually being present in the moment with thats alive inside of you or whats happening righ...

My go to strategy for when life is getting the best of me and I want to release or make sense of whats going inside of my mind. Taking the chaos that is inside of my head and reframing it into a different perspective. Allowing me to release what is looping in my brain and gain some peace or clarity. This is my experience with why Brain Dump Sessions are such an important part of my self love &...

I've learned along the way that the more tools I have in my self care box, the better. Meditation and Breathwork were hard for me in the beginning, but im so happy that I pushed through and now they are part of my daily routine and have helped me in so many ways. I wanted to be fully transparent on this episode because I know that these tools aren't for everyone, but perhaps...if you could push th...

Imagine if you could live life focusing a little more on what brings you happiness, peace & joy. Instead of worrying about what everyone else needs/thinks/wants. What if you could set some of those obligations aside, start saying no to some things that didn't feel good, and actually start pouring love and attention into you? In this episode, I want to give you permission to choose you, come ba...

When is the last time that you checked in with yourself? I mean actually checked in with what's alive inside of your body, your soul, your emotions, your being? We are so busy as moms, women, humans and we often forget ourselves. This is my Self Love Check In process that I do with myself daily, if not multiple times a day. I cannot show up in this world the way I want to as a mother, as a busines...

We've all experienced doubt in one way or another, and sometimes it gets so BIG that it keeps us from living in our purpose. So in this vulnerable episode I chat about how I've experience doubt on this journey, and how I've learned to have a 'relationship' with it. Allowing the doubt to show me the way instead of holding me back. Finding the truth and the answers that you are seeking inside of the...

You are not your thoughts. Self Awareness is the ability to shut off the mind, and get back into your body and witness what's alive inside of you now. Letting go of the pressure, anxiety and fear that the mind gives you. Silencing out that noise and coming back to YOU. Self-awareness has the potential to bring peace to nearly every experience you have, using it as a tool and a daily practice that...

Mom guilt. We've all felt it, the idea that you're not doing enough as a parent. It's that haunting feeling that can sometimes keep us up at night. Its the gut wrenching, heart aching inkling that often hits us like a ton of bricks and feels like there's no way out of it. In this episode, I share some of my wins and losses in the epic battle of mom guilt. The nudge to start putting yourself and yo...

Let me tell you a little story about the current situation of my life. Once you embark on your growth and healing journey, there is no turning back. Unlearning everything that you once believed, feeling your feelings, peeling back layers upon layers of who you've always been. Only to discover who you were actually meant to be, then realizing that those layers are never ending. Whew. Its messy...

This episode title speaks for itself. If you've been putting off something that you've been wanting to do, get out of your head. Tap into why you want to do it in the first place. Release any negative beliefs or unworthiness that it 'isn't' for you and Just Do The Damn Thing. If you desire it, its already yours. You just have to become the person who wants it bad enough.  XO, AMANDA Continue...

Join me as I process in awe, an opportunity that I recently manifested.  Its incredible what happens when we make the decision that we want more out of our lives and begin the healing journey to start loving ourselves unconditionally.  The power that we possess, as you start to embody the person that you've always meant to become, is endless. I choose POSSIBILITY as my word for 2022 and...
