Oh Hey Amanda!

Sometimes we go through seasons where we need to receive energy from other things, instead of using our energy. Whether it’s sitting outside, meditating, or listening to music. The art of doing nothing and allowing the divine energy work it’s magic! Come share this episode with me on instagram!

Catch up episode. Currently challenging myself to realign. Falling out of self care routines is easy, it’s getting back into the swing of things that is hard. Also, after I uploaded I realized I said, “pravana mat”, which is wrong lol. Sometimes words happen before the brain works. It’s a pranamat. Here is one similar to mine!

This episode is a melting pot of different topics. I’m back in the saddle from our two week interview extravaganza. Talking about prioritizing your happy and unexpected things that pop up. As well as, knowing when to cut out all the white noise that is preventing your happiness and success.

How often have you felt like a hamster wheel that keeps spinning? You get in this headspace where all of the things you used to rely to keep you sane feel like a chore.

Boy if that is not the trigger word for quarantine, I don't know what is. This episode I discuss acknowledging loneliness, unhealthy/healthy egos, and, oh yeah, the space time continuum from Back To The Future (it is the scene from the second movie). Ya know, the usual. I try to always keep you on your toes! Here is the article I mentioned in this episode. 

My goal this week is to normalize when I need something more. More me time. More meditation. More reading. Society likes to tell us that when we need more that some how defines who we are when the reality is it makes us human. Here is the Reba link! You’ll be singing it all day. You’re welcome. https://youtu.be/kZNvjmXM7eg

I can tell a huge difference in my day and week when I include meditation. It can be a struggle to stay silent for 3 minutes. Even when 3 minutes doesn't sound like that long.

HAPPY SEASON 3 Many times our ego will tell us that we don't have the opportunity to accomplish something because we don't have the credentials to do so. When the reality is, we have everything we need! We have the motivation and ability to learn something new. To take a new chance on something we truly desire. We have to take the first step or those dreams will never come true. This episode talks about ego, how I overcame this thought when starting my podcast, and how I've been implementing a new morning routine. 

This episode is a discussion on racism and white privilege. I will no longer not speak up when I think I don't have a foot in the game. When something is inhumane and wrong, we should all stand up regardless of how big or small we think our voice is. I'm learning and listening to the amazing black people that are lifting their voices. I'm standing up for what is right. Everyone has a right to their own opinion and this is mine.

This word can be tough to get use to. We have to step into vulnerability in order to grow and be successful. In vulnerability, lies abundance and creativity.
