Healing Through the Heavy

Send us Fan Mail You've probably heard the term "have faith" many times in your life. For me, as a kid I always contributed that too having faith in God, the problem was, I never felt the presence of "God" like I was told I should. Thankfully, as I got older. I realized that it never had anything to do with God themselves, but it was more an internal feeling you need to ha...

Send us Fan Mail I've been MIA. Life's been moving and grooving and I've once again made a small shift in my life. I've been trying to find a healthy middle ground of doing the things I like while also staying focused and working towards a bigger future. Overall, I felt a good life update was due and maybe some encouragement to show yourself grace along the ups and downs we all...

Send us Fan Mail Relationships with our families can be complex, to say the least. I've learned there's a few ways families face conflict and that's to either have big fights or avoid the conflict all together. I, myself am an expert at doing it the wrong way and having to learn that If i ever want to have a healthy dynamic, its going to take some strong intention on my part. We&apo...

Send us Fan Mail We ALL have character flaws, its inevitable. Some are more tolerable than others, both within ourselves and those we spend time with but lately, a character flaw within me has me feeling more discomfort with myself than what I feel comfortable with. So you know that means we have to talk about it and that's the first step towards correcting it. Lets get into it.

Send us Fan Mail I saw the barbie movie, and boy.. it was deeper than I anticipated. As with many things, It got me thinking about how conditioned we all are to be the most perfect version of ourselves and how damaging that is in the long run. As women we carry so much of a heavy load and it gets heavier when we don't allow ourselves to just be human., but we are working towards progress not...

Send us Fan Mail Anger is a complicated emotion to let ourselves feel. I believe for most its a primary emotion above many others such as disappointment, sadness, disgust, confusion, etc. It can make us feel out of control but also feel like its what we must resort to, in order to be heard. Regardless of how much healing we do, anger will always be there in some capacity. I'm always hoping to...

Send us Fan Mail Change is weird, sometimes its feels so right but most the time you meet yourself with uncertainty and wondering if its going to be for the better or will things change you might not be prepared for. I love making necessary changes in my life but it doesn't stop me from over analyzing everything during the process haha. 

Send us Fan Mail All my life I've thought very highly of myself and the brightness of my future but I've always battled against a very harsh imposter syndrome and it's left me in a constant state of feeling stuck. I believe in myself enough but no longer having the person that instilled the high confidence in me really leaves me questioning who I really am and at times my worth to m...

Send us Fan Mail I'm a people person. I love talking to people, being around people, and I especially love getting to know people but it does have what can feel like a disadvantage at times. That disadvantage being I tend to absorb more energy than I have the bandwidth to handle. Over the years i've grown to really know myself internally so I can recognize when I need to take time to get...

Send us Fan Mail Transitioning into a new version of yourself is a challenge in itself. It's especially challenging when you don't allow yourself to appreciate the past version of you that helped you grow. Taking time to reflect on pieces of you that you no longer wish to carry and those that you hope to stay with you is an important part of your healing journey and should be done with i...

Send us Fan Mail I'm a HUGE believer in what we listen/watch/consume matters so therefore I try to avoid things that I feel will only attract negative energies. Ryan on the other hand doesn't quite think its that serious, so of course we had to discuss it, followed up with one of the eeriest moments of my life! 

Send us Fan Mail Everyday our patience is being tested. Some times we have the bandwidth to handle life's annoyances and sometimes we do not. For me, that's when I try to bring myself center and practice mindfulness, which looks different for everyone. Episode 35 lets talk about the power of being mindfully patient.

Send us Fan Mail I'm a believer in brutal honesty but sometimes its just that.. brutal. So instead of looking at a situation and thinking "this person could use some brutal honesty" I've learned to start leaning into compassionate honesty.  Giving people honesty because we ALL need it, but also doing it from a place of compassion cause maybe that person just doesn't see it...

Send us Fan Mail Happy birthday to me! I'm entering year 29 and I feel as though i've lived so many different lives already. I knew it was only fitting that I offer some life lessons that I've hard to learned over my lifetime. Some you may have heard before, others I've really had to dig deep to find, but all I'm sure will offer value.  Lets get into it.

Send us Fan Mail I love the progress we're making the world, I think its long over due and much needed. My issue is, were lacking the grace to others who might just need more time catch up. On top of the normalizing and romanticizing real life struggle and real life disorders to the point that we've been desensitized to them.  We assume that every struggle can be related to our lives and...

Send us Fan Mail We've already discussed how hard being a mom is but something that isn't discussed often is how challenging it can be when you still have old wounds to heal. Unfortunately, I was faced with the biggest wound I have to still heal in myself recently and it shined a big light on an already uphill battle I face with myself and with being a mom. In episode 31 we will discuss...

Send us Fan Mail I made it. I took my tolerance break and learned a few things. Most importantly I learned that I am the one in control, I have the power to do anything I set my mind too and I needed that reminder which is what i'm most appreciate of. Lets discuss how the last 30 days went. 

Send us Fan Mail Shame is an emotion that consumes us more than we know. Shame also has the ability to dibalitate us, to make us freeze, to make us not want to move forward so we continue the cycle of what made us feel ashamed to begin with. We see it everyday in addictions, eating disorders, careers, relationships, etc. Shame isn't a feeling that you will one day drop and never feel again, b...

We op...

Send us Fan Mail We've made it to episode 25, So exciting!! In this episode I felt it was important to bring awareness to that fact that you're stronger than you think. We're all stronger than we give ourselves credit for. Things can seem so hazy at times that we tend to lose trust in the natural resilience we all have just waiting to be tested out. Playing it safe isn't always...

Send us Fan Mail A warm welcome to the love of my life, Ryan. Ryan and I open up about our relationship and how we've managed to grow together in the 5 1/2 years we've been together. We discuss the importance of facing conflict in your relationship, why you should do pave your own path  and do things how you seem fit, and how to always come back to each other when things get rocky. 

Send us Fan Mail Since I was 13 years old I've depended on marijuana to see me through my hard times and it has. I've never looked at it as a bad thing and I still don't but the problem I face with myself is that I don't really know my full complete self without it.  So I just decided If I wanted to step into a higher version of myself some changes to be made. I don't know...

This conversation was the beginning of hopefully many more and will offer comfort in knowing that you don't have to have all the answers but maybe just a little trust.  

Send us Fan Mail My intentions with HTTH has always been to share my truth and my voice as well as give a platform to those who want to share their heaviness and heal on their own journeys. I've sat down and thought of some things that I felt would really help me understand someone more in depth and decided to answer those questions first, honestly.
