Description

Do you feel like you keep adding things onto your plate that are supposed to be “good” things like a new workout routine, a side hustle, a new job, or habit, but they just leave you feeling tired and overwhelmed? If you don’t stick to the goals you set for yourself perfectly do you feel that guilt creep in more and more? And does this cause you to slip into comparison because you feel like your confidence or routines doesn’t look like the girls that seem to do and have it all on social media. There are so many pressures around us, and really- it’s almost engrained in us, to strive, strive, strive, and never be satisfied with what we have. And I know this podcast is called “The Girl Who Can” so what am I talking about here? Well, I’m here to redefine what it really means to “do it all”. You can be the girl who goes to the gym, but also the girl who can rest, the girl who can work hard, but also the girl who sets boundaries, the girl who eats healthy food, but also the girl who can eat out of satisfaction. The girl who practices gratitude, but also the girl who can cry when she had a bad day. Listen, you got one life, and there’s not one cookie-cutter way you’re supposed to live it. I’m here to help you realize what you can do with the life you have with who you are right now. I promise you, who you are right now is more than enough.

So, Hi! I’m Arissa and I’m a recovering 24/7 hustler who tried to do-it-all to reach my final destination of what I thought happiness was. Which only left me feeling anxious and exhausted. And honestly, I still check myself sometimes. I’m not perfect, and I don’t expect you to be either. On this podcast we talk a lot about strategies for self-confidence, healthy routines, and keeping realistic expectations. I am here for you and only want to see you grow into your version of the girl who can. And that girl, starts with saying “yes” I can grow and “yes” I am enough. But wait! I do have one rule around here, tryyy not to be the girl who thinks she can do this alone. Your wins are my wins, and this podcast is here to celebrate YOU.

When you're saying "yes" to something- what are you saying "no" to in return? Sometimes saying yes can come the people pleaser in you, or maybe you genuinely want to help, or maybe you don't know what you want so you just say yes because saying "no" would be mean and make things uncomfortable. In this episode we talk about exercising your skill to say no more often. And yes- its a skill.
