We are so overwhelmed by the amount of options we have that we end up choosing none. Its okay to start over or start later. In this podcast episode we will talk about the anxieties and ways to beat said feelings so you do not let your fig tree rot.

Welcome to another episode of With the Waves, in this episode I talk about how we are made up of people all around us but that shouldn't stop us from becoming who we want to be. Don't allow other people influence the person you want to become. Be comfortable in the uncomfortable or else you won't grow. Enjoy!

In this episode, I’m opening up about why I needed to take a little time off—and how toxic positivity showed up in my life in ways I didn’t expect. You know those moments when people say “just stay positive” or “look on the bright side” when all you really need is space to feel what you’re feeling? Yeah, that.I’m learning that it’s okay to feel everything—the joy, the sadness, the messiness in between. And I want to talk about it. Because pretending everything’s fine all the time isn’t strength—it’s exhausting.If you’ve ever felt pressure to stay upbeat when your world feels heavy, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about why feeling your emotions (all of them!) is not only okay—it’s necessary.

In your 20s, life can feel like a whirlwind of possibilities, expectations, and uncertainty. This is where intention becomes your greatest tool. Living with intention means making conscious choices that align with your values, rather than simply going with the flow or following what others expect. It’s about setting a direction for your life—whether in your career, relationships, or personal growth—and taking small, deliberate steps to move toward it. Without intention, it’s easy to drift, chasing temporary validation instead of lasting fulfillment. In this episode, we’ll dive into why intention is essential, how to cultivate it daily, and practical ways to shape your 20s into a decade of purpose, growth, and meaning.

If you are listening to this podcast you probably have found yourself, self sabotaging to protect yourself. From what? It's better to know you tried then to not try at all, move, explore, adapt life is meant to be lived. In this episode I talk about how i self reject in the work field, relationships, and within myself.

Hey With the Waves listeners, in this episode I talk about how at a certain point we feel overwhelmed with oppurtunities, for example right now I have so many paths I can take in life yet I'm stuck in the same position.
