Space with Case

On the release date of this episode, I'll be on my way to Australia!  I talk about how excited I am but also how overwhelming and stressful things can be before moving abroad... there's a lot to do and wrap up. I'm trying to enjoy and appreciate these last moments of how my life is right now: family gatherings, mountain views, my writing group, living with my brother and our little kitty, and havi...

Welcome back, my darlings!

In today's episode, I talk about the magical time before a trip when there is excitement in the air. I'm packing all my cute outfits... even though I practically live in my yoga pants at home. I'm convinced that travel pushes us to be better, cuter versions of ourselves. Travel changes us, and even the act of preparing for travel is special because we know we're not going to come back as the same...

A lot can change in a short amount of time, and that has certainly been my experience this past week. They say when it rains it pours, and this week it has been pouring... but in the best way! I share some updates on my writing, a new yoga teaching opportunity in an exciting new location, and a possible remote job. All of these things are fitting so well together, and I can really start to envisio...

*Very precious introduction from Void - kitty & newest housemate* In todays podcast, I start out with some life updates. I talk about this fascinating idea of 6 degrees of separation which is the idea we're connected to all other people through 6 or less social connections. Lately, I've been reaching out to people to connect and ask questions, and it's led to some inspiring conversations. I talk a...

I'm excited to welcome you to the 20th EPISODE of Space with Case!! Thank you all for being here and for listening each week.

Today's episode is a follow-up/continuation of last weeks podcast on internalized capitalism and self-worth. I was inspired by several conversations (with you all) after last weeks episode, and I wanted to share some of those conversations and perspectives today. We talk about how parents can unknowingly exacerbate this voice of internalized capitalism and we explore how the work life balance of d...

In today's episode, I open with a short meditation and then I dive right into exploring the idea of internalized capitalism and how it relates to worthiness. When we internalize capitalism, our self-worth is connected to what we do and what we produce and not who we are at the core of our being. Have you ever felt guilty for resting? Have you ever prioritized work over well-being? Have you ever fe...

There are SO many powerful and badass females shining on the world stage right now, and I love it. Recently, I've been inspired by Taylor Swift, the Barbie movie AND one of my best friends... MADDIE! She recently opened a boutique hotel in Guatemala, and she shares her experience of this dream coming to fruition after several years. I love hearing her perspective as a new female entrepreneur. We a...

In today's podcast, I open with a short meditation, so I invite you to take a moment to close your eyes and ground with me if you're in a space to do that.

After an intense, life changing experience, like a retreat, ther...

I'm so happy you're here, and I'm happy to be back on the pod as well (after a 2 month break for summer travels and relaxing).  In today's episode, I rewind a little bit and share some travel stories from the first part of my Europe trip in Italy and Spain. This includes a very stressful trip to the Denver airport, the joy of wandering around Florence wi...

I'm preparing for a month of travel, so in today's episode I talk about the excitement and anticipation I'm feeling as I get ready to return to Europe! There's so many juicy feelings that accompany international travel- wildness, freedom, the bliss of waking up in a new city with no plans. I can't wait for that. However, I also share about a recent trip to Denver and how I felt a bit uncomfortable...

I am turning 32 this week, and I've been reflecting a lot on the past year- the things I've learned and enjoyed and the hard lessons in life, love, and change. In today's episode, I share 10 insights from my 31st year of life. Like, always have conversations with strangers- you never know who will change your life or become one of your closest companion. Change is slow and messy. Back up your comp...

Welcome back to Space with Case! It's been a couple weeks since I released an episode, and I'll tell you all about why that is. But first, I start off by taking a little moment to breathe and ground. I share about everything that's been going on in my world including getting sick, family events, computer crashing. I'm also working full time again for the first time in a long time , and I talk abou...

Last week, I officially finished my UX Design course, which is very exciting! But today I dive into some of the challenges that have come up around this big transition, like imposter syndrome and doubting myself and my decisions. I share a few insights from a recent coaching session that helped me to feel more comforatble and inspired about this next step- for example, how there's no harm in askin...

In today's episode, I am joined by one of my best friends... Jess!! We talk about.. MILLENNIALS!

We share about our own struggles with money and share facts and statistics about why so many milennials are struggling:...

This is a big week! Spring is now officially here. It's a great time for new beginnings. I talk about the ending of my UX design program and beginning what feels like a new phase of my life with a new career path. I look back to a week ago and to a year ago. So much can change in a year, and yet, change is a slow process. I feel like it took a long time to get where I am right now. Being intention...

When I sat down to record today's episode, I had just gotten back from a walk. I'm reminded how something as simple as getting outside in the fresh air can change your whole mood. (It's been a long and cold winter in Colorado, and today was the first day it felt like spring.) I talk about things you can do to feel like yourself again. My personal favorites are a hot baths, organizing my space, jou...

In today's episode I share about my weekend in the mountains with a Camino friend who is here in Colorado visiting from Scotland! We became really fast friends on the Camino, so I share the story of how we met. I end up sharing a couple other Camino stories around friendship including... a birthday story and a story about the end of the Camino that came with a moment of realization. I'm especially...

In this unscripted episode, I ask YOU some questions… What have you been dreaming about? What have you been longing for? What have you said yes to? What have you said no to? And are those responses in alignment with what you really want? I share some exciting news about something that was a big YES for me recently... and how when we say yes to the right things, the universe reminds us that we're o...

Today's episode is all about my former students. The very first class I taught 10 years ago in Thailand just graduated high school, so I was inspired to reflect on my years in the classroom. I share my favorite funny stories and talk about how much joy I experienced in the classroom. I also talk about difficult events that affected my first class in Mexico, like the death of a student, femicide, a...

Today's episode is fun and lighthearted. I have my FIRST guests on the show- 2 of my besties! Our conversation is a celebration of Valentines week, Galentines, friendship, and love in all its forms. We talk about how our friendship has evolved, and we deep dive into questions like… what happens to the love we felt for someone we're not with anymore? We talk about red flags, green flags, and gratit...

This episode is all about the ebb and flow of life. It's about surrendering and resting when we need to. There are weeks when we are deep in creation, and we feel called to share things with the world. Other times, we feel tired and low. Both phases are equally valuable.  I talk about the cycles of nature and in particular the moon. I've been inspired by The Moon Book . I share a bit about each ph...

Where is home?  That's always been a complicated question for me. I feel like I've been searching for "home" for a long time. I talk about some of the places I've lived that have and haven't felt like home. Can home be a physical place or is it more than that? I share some responses from my poll on Instagram. I also talk about a place I've been dreaming about living.  I'd love to know... where is...
