In this advice session, I respond to a listener who took a huge leap of faith — moving for love, changing jobs, leaving community behind — only to experience a painful breakup shortly after. Now she’s navigating heartbreak, broken trust, shared space, and the reality of a lease that makes it hard to fully move on.We talk about how to live peacefully when you’re still entangled, when to conserve your energy versus when to make a clean exit, and how to begin healing after everything you trusted fell apart. This episode is for anyone grieving not just a relationship, but the version of life they believed they were building.Submit here to share your story and get advice: https://forms.gle/Wx9ErvbdnQtoa36B6

This week, we’re in our fall feelings — and talking about anxiety. I also have a new segment: IN REAL LIFE, where I'll be getting honest and personal about my life and current events! In this episode, I’m unpacking what anxiety really is — not a punishment, but a form of protection. We’ll explore how it shows up in different ways, what it might be trying to tell you, and how to calm your body without shaming your mind.I’ll also share some grounding tools I use myself and with my clients to help move through anxious moments — with more awareness, compassion, and safety.Because the truth is: anxiety doesn’t mean something’s wrong with you. It just means your body is asking for peace.🕯️If this resonates, share it with someone who’s been “holding it together” lately — and come join the In My Fall Feelingsseries on Instagram at @yourbestthingpodAnd remember:If you have you, you have everything you need.

This week, I’m getting honest about loneliness — not as something to fix, but as a signal calling us back to connection.

Perfection looks shiny on the outside, but inside it’s exhausting. In this episode, I get real about the hidden pressure so many of us carry to “have it all together” — especially in our late 20s and 30s. From career pivots to timelines around love, kids, and money, the weight of perfection can sneak in and steal our joy.Together, we’ll name where this pressure comes from, break down the biggest myths about perfectionism, and reframe what ambition and success actually look like. I’ll share practical tools — journaling prompts, small habits that rebuild self-trust, and ways to practice imperfection — so you can step out of the pressure cycle and back into freedom.This is your reminder that progress will always matter more than perfection. You don’t have to get it all right to live a life that feels right. You are already your best thing.🎧 Follow me on IG: @lotsofnella🌸 Podcast IG: @yourbestthingpod🗓️ New episodes every week on Spotify + YouTube

Not everything is meant to last forever and that doesn’t mean it was a mistake. In this episode, I’m sharing why it’s okay to outgrow people, places, or paths that once felt right. Just because it ends, doesn’t mean it didn’t serve you. And why it's okay to put what serves you down for a moment then come back to it if you need to.
