Everyone's stories are unique. Their experience, their thoughts, feelings and journeys are so different.  In this episode we talk about our relationships in the past that has led us to be who we are right now. So grab the popcorn and get to know us a little better.  Thanks to Nettson for their song instant we use in the intro and JayJen for our outro song wandering.

It is so important to have a healthy relationship with yourself. If this is missing EVERY OTHER relationship will suffer. It is from the out pore of our own relationships that we treat others. If we dislike ourselves or are frustrated with ourselves then that will be how we view others and this is not how we want to go into our relationship with others.  We talk about how to have this healthy relationship with ourselves and some ways to implement that in your day to day.   

We continue to dive into handling our emotions in healthy ways.

We share about our struggles and our successes as we have gone through this journey of life.  It's not the easiest thing in life to choose healthy and we know. 

It's easy to picture being healthy but how do we choose to be healthy?  Well, look no further because that is what we are going to talk about today. We are going to help you with some ideas and tools to create this healthy life you seek. Thanks to Nettson for their song instant we use in the intro and JayJen for our outro song wandering.  

We can all choose what we want our lives to look like. And this applies to your physical health as well. You have the ability to choose right now that your health is going to be important to you and today we dive into that concept.

Mindset is one of the pillars of a healthy life. You want to be at peace, focus on how you can develop your mind to befriend peace. Want to know love, let your mind look at love for what it is. As Bruce Lee said, 'As you think, so shall you become' It is so true that the things we focus on in life start to become our lives. If we focus on the things that suck, our lives will suck. If we can see the good in the challenging we will become good because of challenges.  In this episode we want...

How do you talk to yourself? It is incredibly important the way that you talk to yourself. Imagine you are a tower that stands 50 feet tall. With words that encourage you can build that tower taller and taller. On the flip side with words you can tear down that tower. In the past we have personally dealt with words that tear ourselves down, FROM US, and seen how destructive it is. We've grown and replaced those words with words that lift us up. From this experience we know changing the way...

We have all encountered frustration and, news flash, we will go through more of it.  This week we talk about handling frustration in healthy ways. Ways that will allow us to be at peace with how we chose to respond rather than beating ourselves up. We also share tools that will help you process through your frustration and really get to the core of what is going on.  Life doesn't have to suck because we are getting frustrated.

What is up all my peeps!  If you got asked how your relationship is with yourself how would you respond?  I've found in this world that if your relationship with yourself is unhealthy so will all your other relationships. So to remedy this Mike and I talk about how to have a healthy relationship with yourself.  Every relationship starts with how you view the person you have a relationship with. If they are someone you want to spend time with you will probably end up having a good...

Ello all!! That is a little English way of saying hello. This week we are talking about thinking in an all or nothing manner and how it can lead to no always the best outcomes. Thinking in all or nothing puts our minds into a state of extremes. When we are in these states of high stakes we encounter we put ourselves into hyper aware places and act irrationally. A little thing could be the biggest or the biggest could be the smallest.  What we aim for is a healthy in the middle approach. It...

We are what we do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. - Aristotle  Our life becomes what we habitually do every single day. Our thoughts becomes our actions, our actions become our habits and our habits become our lives.  We are just a bunch of little habits, or life practices, and by creating powerful practices in our lives we come to a place where our life is going the way that we want it to go.  Charles R. Swindoll says 'life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I...

If we think about learning we often think of it in a negative way. Books, classrooms, lectures and useless information that takes up space in our minds.  Today we talk about how learning is in every part of our lives and how important it is to look at it in healthy ways.  When we see learning as part of our lives in a good way it opens us up to look at life in all it's moments and use them as opportunities to grow and move forward. Thanks to LiQWYD for our intro song called call me and...

So often we want life to be all nice and complete. All our ducks in a row, in a nice present with a bow to tie it all together. But, as well know, this isn't life. Learning how to embrace this rather than constantly trying to make everything perfect frees us up to enjoy life rather than be on that constant hamster wheel. This weeks episode we talk about how to not just accept the process of life but to truly embrace it and enjoy it for all it's worth. It is work, that is for sure, but it...

When you think of the word failure, what is it that goes through your mind?  Is it the plague that should be avoided at all cost? Is it the motivator that keeps you stagnant? Is it the worst possible thing in life?  Failure is one of those things in our world that causes so many of us to run away from the things that would truly bring us life. It has such a powerful command over our lives, usually not in a good way. In this episode we talk about how to view failure in a different way, to...

It's hard enough to go through this world with others judging us but when we start to do it to ourselves it can feel like the world is crushing us. In this episode we focus on our judgement we direct at ourselves and how to handle it in healthy ways, aka compassionately.  If we judge ourselves and get upset at judging ourselves it can easily create this loop that goes around and around, creating a prison of feeling powerless and insecure.  To be free to be yourself you must not judge your...

Let's talk about fear!! Fear is one of those things we all can relate to in some degree. We may not all have the same fear but we all have a fear in our lives.  It is incredibly important to know about fear and how to handle it.

Just know why you are putting in the effort!  This is an off the cuff podcast where we share our ideas on whether or not we can accomplish our dreams. It's not our typical format but a beneficial episode none the less.  Thanks to LiQWYD for letting us use their song called call me for the intro. 

Let's face it, life has its times where it is so overwhelming that we want to crawl into a ball and pretend that nothing in the world exists.  It can be hard to know what to do during these times, it can be challenging to figure out how to think and how to act when life becomes too much for us to handle. That is where peace comes into play. What peace does is provide an anchor in the storm, a safety net when you are walking the balance beam. In this episode we talk about how to get to that...

We all have the good intention to reach whatever goal we are setting for ourselves. Let's say we gave ourselves a goal to go to the gym a 3 times a week. For two weeks in a row we are able to go not 3 times but 4 times. But going into the third week we can only muster up enough energy to go once. We start to feel like we are going through this same cycle of believing we can do something but then never following through with it.  What keeps us in this cycle of being super inspired then...
