touching grass
It's time to touch some grass.. I've been caught in the endless scroll cycle many times before, and breaking free from it takes more than just deleting the app. In my experience, it takes intention, strategy, and some self-honesty. In this episode, I share what’s actually helped me unplug: from...

you can let this go
Back from a short, summery break. This week I’m sharing a few things I would gently tell my younger self she’s allowed to let go of; things like constant productivity, needing to know what’s next, or dressing to look small. These are the kind of pressures we tend to carry quietly for years, until...

channeling euro summer

not hot
In this week's episode, I'm discussing what's hot...and what's not. Think: tagging airlines in angry Instagram stories and being rude to people in customer service (not hot). What does it really mean to embody “hot behavior.”? Spoiler: It has way less to do with looks and way more to do with...

faking it
I’m deep in my “drafting” era, but that doesn’t mean I’m not keeping clear on the vision I have for my life. This episode is about faking it—not to fool anyone, but to stay connected to the version of me I’m becoming. It’s a little bit delusional, a little bit intentional, and fully part of the...

reimagining community
