Ahhh. And just like that, we are halfway through 2023. It’s the perfect time to check back in with those New Year Resolutions goals you made at the top of the year.
But..self reflection can sometimes be uncomfortable because it forces you to sit with yourself, your thoughts, and to hold yourself accountable. But maybe it’ll become a bit easier if you hear Gloria Nkoyo doing it. It’s her hope that this episode encourages you to pat yourself on the shoulder for how far you’ve come, and assess what steps you still need to take.

Okay so boom. You have this thing that has been your passion ever since you can remember. You’ve invested pretty much your entire life to engage in this thing you love. You put in blood, sweat, and tears. Day in and day out. But it’s okay (at first), because you absolutely love it! And to top it off, you’ve grown a family with those who share the same passion as well. But all of a sudden, out of nowhere, you become numb to this very thing you once loved. That numbness quickly turns into a major ick and you just want to be separated from that thing all together.
But wait…what actually happened? Did you do something wrong? Did you miss something? Were there other factors involved?
D’Nia Freeman opens up about her experience with this and she calls it: BURNOUT. What exactly is burnout and will you love that thing ever come back? Listen to this episode to hear what D'Nia did and is currently doing to overcome this daunting feeling.

Starting over has always had a negative connotation to it. And with the unrealistic pressure to know everything in your 20’s, the thought of starting over in your 30’s seems just unbearable. But what if finally choosing you and starting afresh is the very thing that saves your life…literally. Pivoting has it’s happy moments, but it also comes with fear and, what seems like, the never-ending temptation to go back. So, how does one keep moving forward?

In this episode, Ellie talks about her traumatic childhood, abusive relationships, and the escape that changed everything for her.

So how do you stay afloat in a world like this?
