In today’s episode, I’m diving into dopamine, addiction, and the overstimulation we’re all living in, from endless scrolling and shopping to food, alcohol, and constant consumption. After reading dopamine nation, I break down why these habits are so hard to quit, how dopamine crashes actually work, and why “dopamine detoxes” have become so trendy lately.We also talk about consumerism, shopping addiction, screen time, and the small systems I use to reduce overstimulation and feel more present in my daily life. in the second half, I get into a bigger cultural conversation: is wellness being “trendy” actually a bad thing? I unpack the idea that health, fitness, Pilates, and not drinking are part of a conservative pipeline, look at real data around declining alcohol consumption, and share my honest take on whether prioritizing your health is something we should ever feel weird about.This episode is for anyone who feels overstimulated, bored, addicted to their phone, overwhelmed by modern life, or confused about wellness trends, and wants to be more intentional, grounded, and aligned moving forward.Book mentioned, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence by Dr Anna Lembke https://amzn.to/3MlEBT5Why Gen Z Is Drinking Less https://time.com/7203140/gen-z-drinking-less-alcohol/ Get a free 10 travel of 850+ travel manuka honey sticks ($30) value with my code STELLA !! https://manukora.com/STELLA enjoy & dont forget to tweet/ig story me a screenshot of you listening!MY NEW WEBSITE!!

Everyone keeps saying 2026 is the new 2016, and instead of romanticizing the past, I wanted to talk about how we can actually use the last decade to create the best era of our lives moving forward.In this episode, I’m breaking down the biggest lesson I’ve learned since 2016: taking action beats overthinking every single time. We’re talking about confidence, discipline, people-pleasing, self-trust, gym anxiety, wellness, and why playing it safe is usually the thing holding you back the most.I also share mindset shifts from the book Relentless by Tim Grover, how successful people think differently, and why becoming your best self requires being willing to feel awkward, uncomfortable, and misunderstood...at least at first.If you’re feeling stuck, behind, or like you know you’re meant for more but keep hesitating, this episode is for you.✨ subscribe for weekly episodes about wellness, confidence, discipline, and becoming your best self✨ comment your biggest takeaway, i wanna hear it!!✨Get 10 free meals and free breakfast for life from HelloFresh with code HF-0449 https://www.filify.co/SHBn0 ✨ Get a free 10 travel of 850+ travel manuka honey sticks ($30) value with code STELLA https://manukora.com/STELLAEnjoy & dont forget to tweet/ig story me a screenshot of you listening!MY NEW WEBSITE!!

Hey yall, HAPPY NEW YEAR!! In this first episode of 2026, I’m talking all about how to actually reset for the new year without feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or behind. New Year’s resolutions can bring motivation, but they can also bring stress, pressure, and perfectionism, especially if you feel like you “should’ve done more” last year.In this episode, I share my approach to setting goals in 2026 by starting with an ideal vision, focusing on one habit at a time, and building momentum instead of trying to change everything at once. I break down why New Year’s resolutions fail, how to make goals feel sustainable, and how to enjoy the process instead of rushing to the outcome.I also give a full update on what’s been working for me in the gym — from training to failure, simplifying my workouts, improving my cardio, and overcoming gym anxiety, plus realistic wellness habits that support both physical and mental health during winter.We also talk about:✨How to stay motivated in January without burning out✨Why winter is for building habits, not perfection✨My current gym split, training style, and mindset shifts✨Cardio, steps, supplements, and grocery habits that support consistency✨How to handle crushes without losing your focus or energyIf you’re looking for a realistic New Year reset, fitness motivation, or a grounded mindset shift to start 2026 strong, this episode is for you.✨ Let me know what habit you’re focusing on this January and what you want more of this year.enjoy & dont forget to tweet/ig story me a screenshot of you listening!Preworkout I currently take: https://amzn.to/4jwPjT1Creatine I currently take: https://amzn.to/4jvbYPtGet $1000 off the health coach certification program I'm doing with promo code STELLACOACHING https://www.shareasale.com/u.cfm?d=1281553&m=96296&u=103026300:00 welcome to 2026 + the pressure of new year energy01:12 why new year motivation feels overwhelming02:13 imagining your ideal life + how you actually want to feel03:45 why everything in your life affects everything else04:36 why most new year’s resolutions fail05:38 how to choose one focus instead of doing too much06:53 realistic january goals that actually stick07:58 why movement (even imperfect) matters more than motivation09:10 why january is about foundation, not instant results10:22 my gym journey + why consistency didn’t always look perfect11:30 how i structure my workouts now12:58 training to failure + doing less but better workouts13:51 why slowing down movements changed my results15:10 creatine, pre-workout, and what actually helped16:32 cardio, steps, and why it won’t ruin your gains18:14 how to get over gym anxiety as a woman19:45 grocery resets, freezer staples, and winter wellness21:15 supplements, vitamin d, and seasonal mental health22:49 how to handle a crush without losing your focus24:30 why crushes should fuel you, not distract you26:15 dating boundaries + not giving men the upper hand27:24 final thoughts on discipline, confidence, and locking in28:10 what i want you to focus on this january28:55 closing thoughts + what’s coming next on the podcast#StellaRaePodcast

Hey yall!! This is the final podcast episode of 2025, and I wanted to end the year on a real, grounded, locked-in note...not toxic positivity, not victim mentality, just honesty.In this episode, I talk about what it actually means to end the year strong, how I’m shifting into a locked-in baddie mindset for 2026, and why feeling stuck, unmotivated, or off-track isn’t random, it’s usually a sign you’re out of alignment with your why.We get into:✨Why life is supposed to feel uncomfortable when you’re not aligned✨How connecting to your ideal self changes everything✨The difference between “I should” habits vs. habits that actually stick✨Taking accountability without shaming yourself✨Dating, discernment, red flags, and choosing better for yourself✨Why staying in a victim mindset keeps you stuck✨How your algorithms, media, and habits shape your mindset✨A reflection exercise that completely shifted how I view the last 10 years✨Why memories, risks, and saying yes matter more than routines aloneThis episode is for anyone who wants to go into 2026 clear, empowered, and intentional, not repeating the same year again. If you’re ready to lock in, reflect, and take responsibility for the life you’re building, this one’s for you.✨ Follow the podcast, subscribe, and get ready.

Lately I’ve been reflecting on my own experiences, and I know I’m not the only one who’s ever felt like, “Wait… did I just lose my confidence?” We discredit our growth so easily, especially when facing the unknown or getting closer to 30.I talk about the importance of self-trust, keeping promises to yourself, and being kinder to yourself as you keep evolving. I share how I personally deal with those moments of doubt, why moderation (even with moderation) is key, and how talking to yourself can actually calm anxiety. It’s about recognizing how far you’ve already come, owning your wins, and embracing both the “yes” and the “no” moments that help you grow.If you’ve been questioning yourself, feeling insecure, or just want to rebuild that inner confidence, this conversation is for you.enjoy & dont forget to tweet/ig story me a screenshot of you listening!MY NEW WEBSITE!!

I talk about what it’s like to outgrow friendships, realize you need to be more selective with who you give your time to, and how social media makes it way too easy to feel like you’re “behind” when you’re actually right on track.I share my own experiences trying to balance having a social life with actually working on myself, and why learning to sit with discomfort has been crucial for my growth. We get into how to figure out your ideal vision for life, the small steps you can start taking to get there, and why it’s normal to feel overwhelmed and unsure along the way.Nobody has it all figured out, we’re all just adjusting as we go. When you take time to reflect, get clear on what you actually want, and align your actions with that, things start to feel a lot less scary and a lot more exciting.

Hey yall! In this episode, I’m getting real about the pressures we face as women to hit certain milestones by a certain age, getting married, having kids, “settling down”, and how exhausting it is to feel like you’re running against a clock. I talk about why life doesn’t magically end at 25, why being single can actually be the most empowering time of your life, and why rushing into relationships or marriage just to “keep up” will never make you happy.I also get into the way social media fuels comparison, how people project their own insecurities onto you, and why it’s so important to block out the noise so you can actually enjoy where you’re at right now. We touch on the realities of parenthood (and why it’s not something to take lightly), breaking free from outdated timelines, and fully embracing your individuality.Bottom line: stop letting society convince you you’re behind, you’re not!!

I talk about what it’s actually like to let go of things that don’t serve you anymore (even when it sucks), and how choosing *you* can sometimes feel isolating AF. I share some personal stories, reflect on the power of solitude, and why quality is over quantity when it comes to connections.
