    Let’s Get Uncomfortable: The Advantage of Discomfort

    My new favorite topic is discomfort tolerance, so let me talk you into doing hard things on purpose. I’m catching you up on: * Anxiety over the first solo podcast airing * Working through resistance when it comes up * Finishing (and enjoying?) some brand work * Making social media fun again? * A hot take on new build houses * Accepting my unfortunate circumstances re:sleep * Letting go of certain habits * Am I teetering on overfunctioning? And then there’s the juicy stuff: getting out of you comfort zone! I want to shout it from the rooftops honestly. Have a listen to hear my TedTalk in favor of discomfort.

    A New Era + Processing Change

    It’s a new era and I’m talking about my part of the transition to a solo podcast, which was full of feelings! I’m covering: * My honest thoughts and feelings when Anna decided to leave the podcast * Why I chose to keep the pod going solo * How “capacity” as my word of the year has been spot-on * What my summer looked like with the podcast transition * The logistics of a new format * Being accountable to myself * Finally accepting that this is work and acting like it * Exciting new things that are coming together This was a raw one, but I don’t think I’m capable of being anything but honest! I’m so excited with where things are heading and so grateful to Anna for starting this crazy train with me. And thanks to you for growing along with me! Some episodes you may have missed….

    The One Where Everything Changes

    After so many episodes, so many stories, and so many Sunday recording sessions, I am closing this chapter of my time on likehearted - it’s extremely bittersweet. To everyone who listened, sent messages, shared episodes with a friend, or came on to be interviewed or guest host - thank you! This show allowed me to grow in ways I didn't expect, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally, and I'll always be thankful for that. But if there's one thing I keep coming back to as I look back on this whole experience, it's my friendship with Bracey. We were already friends before the podcast, but this journey brought us so much closer, and that's something I will carry with me long after this last episode airs. That's the kind of magic this show is really about. I can’t wait to keep listening. 💛 Love, Anna Links: * Subscribe: likehearted.substack.com * Instagram: @likeheartedpod Some episodes you may have missed…. Here’s some good ones from the archives!

    Bracey is debuting her astrological knowledge by reading Anna’s birth chart! In this episode: * Bracey walks through how she reads a chart, including the pieces that often get left out of pop-astrology takes — aspects, aspect patterns, and how they add nuance beyond just “sign” and “house” * A full reading of Anna’s chart, touching on her core placements and what they reveal about her identity, emotional world, and relationships * How some of Anna’s placements connect to real patterns in her life — from people-pleasing tendencies to how she processes conflict and disappointment * A conversation about the balance between self and others, and where Anna’s chart points to growth * A fun detour into the different branches of astrology (psychological, electional, medical) * Why “easy” placements aren’t always the most useful, and how challenging aspects can sharpen personal growth Links & Resources: * Want a reading of your own?

    Creative Questions & Mid-Year Check-in

    In this episode Anna walks in with a literal homework assignment — her supervisor handed her seven reflection questions and said "sit with these," which is therapist-speak for "this is going to wreck you a little." They also get into a mid-year check-in (HOW are we already halfway?) of their own goals list and discuss what has changed, what hopes still exist, and what has been quietly abandoned. What we got into SO MANY TANGENTS. The girls love to chat. 🕳️ The missing-from-your-life question. Turns out neither of them was ready for how fast the answer came. 🍯 Craving vs. actually wanting. The difference between what sounds good on a vision board and what your nervous system is begging for. 🎯 The workshop-that-exceeds-expectations fantasy. What we’d actually walk away wanting — spoiler, it’s not a certificate. Tell us how the first half of your year is going! Seriously. We want to know.
