Sweat & Reflect
Sweat & Reflect is a podcast designed for the woman who has realized that there is purpose in her pain & that she has a voice worth using. Honestly, she's kind of sick of checking off the proverbial boxes that society expects of her (think marriage, baby & house all by 35). She is focused on finding her voice through real discussions of addiction, wellness, loss, grief, and joy. Most importantly, Sweat & Reflect will help her realize that even when life is painful, life is happening FOR her, not to her.

hi friend!
welcome back! on today's episode we're diving back in to the mental health pond - after all, it is mental health awareness month.
over the past week i've come to terms with the fact that i've had to ask for help; that i need more support than i am giving myself right now & that has been a very, very big deal for me.
as a result of asking for help, i've been met with A LOT of opinions; opinions from people whom i love & trust, but...
but here's what i'm finding, their opinions, as much as i appreciate them are based in what they think i need & even more importantly, what they believe.
do you know what i mean? you've told someone what you need & they respond with what they inadvertently need?
here's the big takeaway: their opinions should NOT affect your judgement. at the end of the day YOU know what YOU need. you can seek their counsel but their beliefs, their suggestions are not the end all be all.
you know what you need. dont' be afraid to lean into those needs & to push for what you need.
you've got this. xoxoxo
