    20. Lazy? Unproductive? Stuck? How to Love Your Lowest Self

    If you struggle with changing your life, today’s episode is for you. Maybe you want to get in shape, change careers, leave (or find) a relationship. Maybe you want a clean house or a well-behaved child or to actually finish writing that book. You might tell people that these are things you want, you might even snip out pictures and put them on a vision board or write about them in a journal - but are you acting like someone who wants that thing? Are you sacrificing your chillaxing time to meal prep, or dealing with the discomfort of giving your kid consequences? Are you waking up early to type that manuscript, or going out on awkward dates to try and find that relationship? No? If you’re not, do you feel like crap about this? Do you sit with not just the weight of an unachieved life, but also the shame of knowing that you SHOULD be doing that thing, or being that person, but you’re just NOT? If you’re in a space where you’re executing goals and changing the landscape of your life – rock on. Those seasons are incredible. But ya know what other seasons are incredible? The ones where we meet ourselves exactly where we’re at. The seasons where we decide we’re not gonna hate ourselves for NOT being productive, brave, or ambitious. How do we actually do that? Listen to today’s episode to find out.

    19. How to Feel Good Enough About 2020

    As we reach the end of 2020, here are some ideas for how to feel “good enough” about one of the most difficult years most of us have ever experienced. What I mean is... Did you get out of shape? Not follow through on things you thought you might? Did you fall short in some friendships, or self-work, or ventures you had planned? You’re not alone. It’s enough to have merely survived. Enough “shoulding” about what you did or didn’t do - time to make peace with 2020 and let go. Whether you achieved your wildest dreams in 2020 or you barely washed your hair, this episode covers how to feel “enough” about the year we are leaving in order to embrace the new year and all that it will bring.

    18. How the Road to a Great Life is Paved with Shitty First Steps

    People often say they want great things in their life. But if you’re not willing to be bad at something, take imperfect steps, and patch together a “good enough” idea while your magnum opus accumulates with experience, you might not ever get your greatness out into the world. If you’re not willing to make bad art, you might not get to your great art. If you’re not willing to go on imperfect dates, you might not find that partner they were leading to. Today’s episode is a guide to taking “shitty” steps that lead to the great life you desire. We draw on wisdom from the great patron saints of creating and living while imperfect: Anne Lamott, Julia Cameron, and others who believe the road to your dreams is paved with typos, confusion, and sometimes s****y, embarrassing, perfectly imperfect awkward steps. If you’re ready to get unstuck and take some exciting and imperfect steps, I encourage you to listen to today’s episode.

    17. How a Foundation of Trust Can Guide You Through Life

    It’s time to build a solid foundation. As we all grapple with an ongoing pandemic, deep grief at the normalcy we’ve lost, wildfires, climate events, a political climate that can make anyone wanna crawl under a rock, and then just everyday life on top of it, feeling shaky is pretty understandable. That’s why this week we’re going to talk about how to be guided by a sturdy foundation, no matter what is happening in life. Rather than acting from fear, scarcity, and the frantic idea that you need to be somewhere you’re not, we’re going to discuss how to reach toward an inner well of steadiness. If you want less fear, uncertainty, and insecurity, and are ready for MORE trust, peace, and reliance on your own power, I encourage you to listen to today’s episode.

    16. How to Leap into Action Toward Your Dreams

    Changing your life isn’t just deciding what you want and making plans – it’s moving toward your dream imperfectly and full of fear. Leaping is taking action that risks something - like (gasp!) your pride. But how do we actually do that? If you’ve ever wondered how to move from the thinking and planning stage toward action that changes things, today’s episode is for you. We’ll talk about what’s standing between you and the changes you want to make, as well as what you can do to leap toward that life today. And since it *is* the night before my birthday and all, I’m also asking you for a little favor. This favor involves you taking some exciting leaps into action yourself. Are you game to help me ring in my 36th year? That’s what I thought. Check out today’s episode and - if you really want to amp up the birthday celebration for me - please rate and leave a review of the show if you like what you hear.

    15. Handling Criticism and Confrontation (Bonus Art of Social Media Exercise)

    If you’re alive long enough, you’re going to be criticized. And if you dare to share an opinion (or vulnerable part of yourself) on social media, you might even meet some trolls. So how do we prevent ourselves from shrinking in the face of conflict? How do we meet criticism with grace, perseverance, and the grit necessary to live a big and juicy life? Today’s episode is for you if you’ve ever struggled with confrontation, worried about other people’s differing opinions, or found yourself tied up in knots watching other people get trolled online. The way we show up matters, and learning how to navigate conflict and criticism (whether on social media or in regular life) can make all the difference.

    14. How to Handle Being Triggered on Social Media and Life - (Bonus) Art of Social Media Exercise

    Do you have one of those people who just grinds your gears? When scrolling social media (or going through life) is there someone who just BUGS you? Maybe it’s a friend from high school who’s always humble bragging about her perfect life – maybe it’s your cousin’s husband who makes ignorant comments like it’s his job. Is it a famous person who annoys you? Or maybe all the selfies, fake news, trolling, victimhood? What grinds your gears? Who gets your goat? And are you ready to let them show you the way to living YOUR most authentic life? This week I’ll be talking about someone who bugs me: someone I follow who makes me feel jealous, insecure, and pretty much all the feelings that make me wanna crawl under a rock and apologize for ever daring to play big. Sound dramatic? Well, allow my human brain to be an example for how the people who “trigger” us in big (and small) ways can actually be flashing red lights to our own healing, and therefore road maps to our beautiful lives. If you’re ready to start feeling better about not just social media but life, check out today’s episode. And if this is helpful to you, come join the maiden voyage (first ever run!) of my Art of Social Media course that launches on August 10th. I’m offering it at a discount for a limited time and we’re already cultivating a pretty rad and supportive community– chock full of people who are done feeling overwhelmed, triggered, anxious, and angry when logging off, and ready to feel connected, supported, alive, centered, and authentic. Because when we realize that our online life is simply a microcosm of our “real” life, we alchemize the awareness and power needed to live the life that we really want. Ready?

    13. Stop Unnecessary Suffering by Learning the Difference Between Clean and Dirty Pain

    “Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional,” or so the trusty old saying goes. But wait, is that actually right? The definition of suffering is simply “undergoing pain or hardship.” And if you’re showing up to life (“in the arena” as Brene Brown often talks about) you’re gonna get your butt kicked by pain once in a while. Pain is the flip side to the exhilarating joys and deep love of a truthful life. It’s rough, but we’re supposed to feel it. But where is the line between the pain of a fully experienced life, and unnecessary suffering? How do we know if we’re spinning in rumination versus recognizing difficult circumstances? Allow me to introduce you to the concept of “clean and dirty pain” – and how it can change your life. Turns out that not all suffering is created equal, and we humans have the ability to experience “clean” pain (the truthful reality of difficulties in life) and stop suffering from “dirty” pain (a pain that our beautiful brains bring on unnecessarily - a dirty pain that inhibits us from experiencing joy, peace, and connection.) If you’re ready to suffer less and enjoy your wild and precious life more, this episode is for you. Here are some simple and actionable steps that will allow you to stop suffering unnecessarily TODAY. Keep going, my loves, Melissa Please subscribe, rate, and review if you enjoyed today's show.
