    how i went from a hedonist to a holistic hedonist

    this week i’m getting really reflective and sharing an aha moment i had about the biggest shift in my life. i walk you through what a typical saturday looked like for me in my early twenties (hungover, high, mcdonald’s app coupons, tequila shots before heading out again) and how i realized the motivation underneath it has never actually changed. i’ve always been a hedonist who believes pleasure is the point of being human. what changed is that i went from chasing pleasure at all cost to being what i call a holistic hedonist, someone who pursues joy with long term sustainability at the center. i talk about the habits that laid the foundation for this season of my life, why the relationship i have with myself matters so much, and the pleasure list i made that i can pull from any day i need it. this is just my story, not a how-to, and i hope something in it makes you feel a little less alone in your own rebuilding. follow along instagram: @habitualpodtiktok: @habitualpodcastyoutube: @habitualpodcast newsletter: habitual-podcast.com keywords holistic hedonism, hedonism, what is hedonism, holistic hedonist, pleasure and joy, how to find joy, how to make joy a habit, pleasure list, joy list, personal growth journey, healing journey, rebuilding your life, starting over in your twenties, life after partying, quitting drinking, quitting weed, sober lifestyle, sober curious, sober living, natural dopamine, how to feel good without substances, relationship with yourself, self love, spending time alone, sitting with yourself, emotional wellbeing, movement for mental health, building healthy habits, lifestyle change, deconditioning, habitual podcast, personal growth podcast, self improvement podcast, women’s wellness podcast

    5 micro morning habits that changed my life

    welcome back to habitual. this week i’m sharing the five micro morning habits that are my absolute non-negotiables, the ones that have genuinely changed how my days feel. nothing crazy here, no 5am wake ups and no mystery concoctions, just tiny things you can stack onto your existing morning. i’m talking about gratitude the second your alarm goes off, warm water within the first ten minutes, eating before you have any caffeine (this one has done so much for my anxiety), a protein heavy breakfast, and moving your body in the silliest, easiest way possible. i also get into why each one works, from your brain waves in the morning to why breakfast matters more than we think. small changes really do add up to big ones, and this is proof. also, the habitual newsletter just launched, so make sure you sign up! follow & listen instagram: @habitualpodtiktok: @habitualpodcastyoutube: @habitualpodcastnewsletter and website: habitual-podcast.com keywords micro morning habits, morning routine for anxiety, healthy morning routine, morning habits that changed my life, gratitude practice morning, drink warm water in the morning, eat before caffeine, caffeine and anxiety, high protein breakfast, why breakfast is important, habit stacking, easy morning routine, morning routine for beginners, non negotiable morning habits, dancing in the morning, morning movement, nervous system regulation, lymphatic drainage morning, morning routine no 5am, self improvement podcast

    storytime: my first half marathon (and 3 things i wish i knew)

    welcome back to habitual. this past sunday i ran my first ever half marathon, it was not what i expected, and i’m recording this while it’s still fresh so i can process it with you. i signed up one week before the race, trained on flat ground, and then found out what 1300 feet of elevation gain actually feels like. in this episode i’m sharing everything i wish i knew before race day, from underestimating the hills to not having a running playlist, the signs, cowbells, and strangers that made it special, and the moment a woman dancing on a hill changed my whole perspective. follow & listeninstagram: @habitualpodtiktok: @habitualpodcastyoutube: @habitualpodcast keywords first half marathon recap, half marathon tips for beginners, things i wish i knew before my first half marathon, elevation gain running, running hills for beginners, half marathon training, how to run a half marathon, first race experience, running for beginners, zone 2 running, race day tips, running playlist, doing hard things, getting out of your comfort zone, running motivation, half marathon with one week of training, running mental health, beginner runner podcast, self improvement podcast, find joy in the struggle

    embracing silliness as a form of self care

    welcome back to habitual. i had a rough start to my morning today, lots of anxiety and brain fog, so i did the thing that always helps and had a full blown solo dance party in my living room. and it worked so fast that i had to come talk to you about it. this episode is about why dancing it out is one of the most underrated coping mechanisms for anxiety and depression, the exact songs i turn to depending on how bad it's gotten, why we need more silliness and play in our lives, and why i'm realizing i've been taking everything way too seriously lately, including my upcoming half marathon this weekend. plus my daily delight at the end, as always. follow & listeninstagram: @habitualpodtiktok: @habitualpodcastyoutube: @habitualpodcast keywords how to cope with anxiety, dancing for anxiety relief, movement is medicine, nervous system regulation, vagus nerve stimulation, anxiety coping mechanisms, how to stop overthinking, importance of play as an adult, self care routine, mental health podcast, anxiety relief tips, grounding techniques, how to be less serious, radical silliness, dance therapy, anxiety and depression coping, mind body connection, daily delight, self improvement podcast, gratitude practice
