    Why is it that we keep looking for validation from others—whether it's in our careers, our relationships, or even how we look—hoping it’ll finally make us feel worthy? And yet, it feels like filling a bucket with a hole at the bottom, doesn’t it?

    Today we’re talking about why this “not good enough” feeling keeps showing up, how our endless search for external approval fuels it, and, most importantly, how you can break free from the prison of your own making..

    Oct 16 2024

  • Getting a Handle on Emotional Eating
    Oct 3 2024

    Have you ever found yourself reaching for that extra snack, binge-watching TV, or avoiding exercise, and wondering, “Why am I doing this?” You know these behaviors aren’t helping, but somehow, you can’t stop. A lot of the time the real reason behind all of this is that you’re avoiding your feelings. And not just avoiding them—maybe you’re so good at it, you don’t even know what you’re feeling anymore.

    Ever wonder what would happen if you actually allowed yourself to feel those feelings instead of pushing them away? What if they’re not something to fear but instead, messengers with something important to tell you?

    Today we’ll cover why we’re so quick to bury our emotions, how avoiding them can lead to self-destructive habits, and most importantly, how to start seeing feelings as benevolent messengers guiding us toward what we truly need.

    So, are you ready to face those feelings and finally find freedom from those familiar frustrations?

    Aw yeah, let’s go!
