    Episode 16 | Find A Lovely Book with Deena ElGenaidi

    Find A Lovely Book is back! What started as a #bookclub journey for me during the pandemic has now expanded into a place where I get to also talk to some authors I love. We're celebrating the launch of DUST SETTLES NORTH by Deena ElGenaidi, a beautiful debut about two siblings navigating their mother's grief between two worlds: Egypt and the United States. I got to interview my lovely client, Deena ElGenaidi, about her writing process, our submission journey, and what we love about this book. We even talk about how Zain and Hannah navigate #selflove on their own journeys. So if you're looking for a new book to read this fall, check out our conversation and read Deena's debut!

    Episode 15 | For The Love of Flowers With Kayla Mireles

    Flowers have always been important in my self-love journey. Earlier this year I got to knock out two things from my #selflove bucket list and attended a floral arrangement class in a bookstore I hadn't been before and met the lovely Kayle Mireles who reminded me how special flowers are. From colors to traditions and the magical moments in between, we sat down and had a lovely conversation about how much we love flowers and what they can teach us in our self-love journey.

    Episode 14 | Listening To Your Body With Megan Jones

    My relationship with my body has been a huge part of my #selflovejourney. I've been exploring that more consistently with massage therapy, and I was so excited to sit down with #massagetherapist Megan Masako Jones at White Lotus Touch, to dive deeper into her own #selflove journey and also how to listen to our body more. I hope our conversation inspires you to listen to your body more. Trust me, it definitely has something to say.

    Episode 13 | Self-Love Tool: How To Work With Mercury Retrograde In Your Self-Love Journey

    Oh man, I recorded this episode at the start of Mercury Retrograde and then immediately got punched in the neck by her. Thank god I know how to work with this astrological transit because she sure knows how to remind me what I still need to face and possibly heal. I've been using astrology as a self-love tool for six years now and wanted to start a new series on the podcast where I share some of those self-love tools for possible blueprints in your own self-love journey. So guess what? Self-love class is now in session. Let me teach you how to work with Mercury Retrograde and how she can help you on your self-love journey.

    Episode 12 | Self-Love Journey Check-In: New Season, New Energy

    We're back, baby! Hello, lovely. How have you been? It's been a long time since I asked you that. 6 months, actually. Lots has happened, let's catch up. It's a new season with new energy. We're gonna be doing some self-love check-ins, what does self-love mean to me right now, and how can that help you along your own self-love journey as well. I'm excited to kick off this season. I'm going to be talking to some more lovely souls and diving deeper into topics I feel really elevate your self-love journey experience. I also have two client books launching this year and will be reviving the #findalovelybookclub to chat with them about their debuts. We've got a lot to heal and dive into, but we're also not going to forget about joy this season. I know we're all craving it, we need it–even if you don't feel like you deserve it (especially if you feel like you don't deserve it). Glad to be back, let's find a lovely life worth living.
