    Episode 3: A Better Version of You – Confidence & Golden Globes Red Carpet

    We’re finding our footing as the show transitions into a more intentional, segmented format. Gloria reflects on the shift from the concise debut to the more free-flow second episode and follows up on last week's "simple joy" homework with a personal revelation about natural beauty maintenance. We dive deep into how real confidence is a muscle that requires regular maintenance and how it dictates the standards we set for our image. Plus, we take a look at the Golden Globes red carpet and introduce "The Watchlist"—a new community assignment designed to be fun, manageable, and easy to fit into your schedule. Key Takeaways Confidence is a Muscle: Confidence isn't a talent you are born with; it requires regular routine maintenance and pouring into yourself to create a loving relationship with who you are.The Foundation of Kindness: True confidence starts with being kind to yourself. You cannot build a healthy relationship with yourself on a foundation of negativity or constant self-criticism.The Look Good, Feel Good Resonance: Caring for your appearance is an act of self-care and an indication of your intentionality. When you respect yourself, you naturally want to appear polished because it resonates from within.The Power of Articulation: Reflecting on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s "I Have a Dream" speech highlights the vital importance of being able to clearly communicate and articulate ideas to bring like-minded people together.

    Episode 1: Quit, Sit, Commit – A New Mindset for 2026

    Happy 2026! We are officially kicking off Good Vibes & Deep Dives with a mindset refresh. If you are already looking at your New Year’s resolutions and feeling stressed, this episode is for you. Instead of a traditional 2025 recap, Gloria shares the three essential rules she’s carrying into the new year. Inspired by Oliver Burkeman’s best-selling book Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, we’re ditching the toxic productivity advice and embracing a new framework: Quit, Sit, and Commit. Tune in to learn why "strategic underachievement" might be the healthiest choice you make this week, and how realizing you are "cosmically insignificant" can actually set you free. Key Takeaways The Efficiency Trap: Why getting better at processing your work just leads to more work (and how to stop the cycle)Rule #1: QUIT (Strategic Underachievement) – The art of deciding in advance what you are going to fail at, so you can succeed where it countsRule #2: SIT (Staying on the Bus) – How to strengthen your "patience muscle" and surrender to the speed of reality without giving upRule #3: COMMIT (Cosmic Insignificance Therapy) – Why the universe doesn't care about your five-year plan and why that is the most liberating news you’ll hear all dayThis Week’s Advice: Practice “quitting” by picking one area of your life to be 'bad at' and tell yourself, “I choose what matters and I quit the rest” whenever you feel guilty about not getting everything done Resources Mentioned Book: Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver BurkemanBook: Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative by Austin Kleon Connect With Us Website: GoodVibesDeepDives.com
