A little bit abt me⭐️ Hi i’m Rachel, i’m 21 and I grew up in Massachusetts. I started this podcast after dropping out of college in 2022. I didn’t know what I wanted to do w my life- and that’s when I learned I didn’t have to know. I started taking my life day-by-day. Working, exploring, solo-adventuring, and realizing that life isn’t abt the end goal but about how you spend your days. I use this podcast to share my thoughts, experiences, adventures, and wisdom. I hope you follow along and find some inspiration along the way 🤭👭 [All socials @curiositywrachel]

    Short and sweet reminder

    Here’s a short, and raw, episode. There’s a couple long pauses in there where I stopped to think. These are all thoughts flowing out of me as I walk and look at the clouds, trees, and the soil beneath my feet. Takeaways: How you live is your choice! The energy you bring to the day is your choice! Are you excited for opportunities that can came when u least expect them? Do you look for love and inspiration? Do you move through the day with an open heart and open mind?

    Labels keep us small

    I don’t like labels, and here’s why… ​ They don’t allow for our natural change and growth​ Labels create judgment​ They keep us in a specific box​ They’re unnecessary!!!

    This is your one job

    This episode is all about staying open through everything that life throws at us. I have had many moments in my life where all I wanted to do was isolate. I had so many thoughts telling me that I had to hide myself, and many times I listened to them. But this episode is all about the importance of staying open even when everything is telling you to close. Not isolating, not hiding, not changing, but being yourself even when you have thoughts that tell you the opposite. Pushing through those thoughts, and staying open is the most important choice we can make. It doesn’t feel like a choice at times, but knowing that your job is to stay open no matter what, can help you stay open even when everything in your head is telling you to close. Small or big, things will always happen throughout your day that may cause you to automatically close. There will never be a time when you can stop these situations from happening. What you can do, is open up when you notice yourself closing. When you notice the thoughts telling you to hide yourself, to match the energy of those around you, the thoughts that you’re not enough or being too much; you don’t change. You stay the same. You stay you. Because that is your job. Not giving up on yourself, not letting yourself isolate even when you feel like that’s your only option. Things won’t always go your way, people won’t always reciprocate the energy, but you don’t change because of these things. You always have a right to take up space, to show your personality, to simply be you regardless of other people.

    Let’s talk therapy w/ Kayla Clark

    In this episode, we’ll be discussing all things therapy with therapist Kayla Clark from Be Well Counseling. I’m confident that whether you’re in therapy or not- you will get a lot from this episode. We’ll talk about Kaylas schooling in becoming a therapist, different therapy modalities, life advice, navigating tough discussions, using ChatGPT for advice, the difference between “knowing” and “doing” + so much more!!! This episode is definitely one of my favorites and felt so special to record. I genuinely had so many “woah” moments where I felt my mind opening and got the chills. Thank you Kayla for creating this episode with me! Check out Kayla at BeWellCounselingCo.com. Lastly… if you’d like to hear more from Kayla, leave some questions to be answered in a future episode…🤭

    Turning dreams into reality

    Hiiiii!!!! This past month I have uncovered new fears and realizations. In recording this episode, I used it as a place for me to reflect on how I’ve been detaching from my life recently. In the past 6 weeks I have been doing a program with Vanessa Fontana, the host of Figuring Sh!t Out. This program has been very insightful, and it brought up a lot of fears I haven’t wanted to face. Throughout this episode I discuss these fears, my detachment in the past month, and how I am reclaiming my power & aligning myself. I end this episode off with words that Vanessa shared with me- on how we create our dream lives not by figuring out “how” but through living in alignment. In order to create the life we want, or the life we see for ourselves, we can’t force it and try and figure it out. Because in doing that, you are coming from a fear based mindset. The life you see for yourself is not out of fear, so you cannot get there from a place of fear/urgency. Instead, start aligning yourself in your current life. Trust that you will get to where you want to be, and allow yourself to feel safe where you are.

    Confidence already exists inside you; here’s how to feel it

    First things first, you already have confidence deep inside of you. The issue is not attaining confidence, it’s about allowing it and expressing it. Since it’s already there- there’s nothing you have to do to gain it. The way to express and feel your own confidence is by 1. Taking care of yourself -treating yourself the way you would your own child 2. Stopping the negative stories you repeat about yourself -no more jokes abt ur looks or negative self-talk, you will never be able to see who you are if you have negative beliefs that cloud your vision 3.Knowing you are worthy by simply existing, and knowing you are enough for the same reason -there’s nothing to prove, you are worthy just by living, and you have the right to take up space as you are

    Change your thoughts, change your life

    Your thoughts are not you. You are the observer of these thoughts, which means that you don’t have to identify with any of them. You can allow them to pass through your mind. These thoughts are always judging, labeling, and making up stories. But they are not you, so you don’t have to listen to them. By knowing they’re always going to be there, but that it’s not you, you can let them pass without attaching to them. This way, you can experience things as they are- without judging them or deciding if they are “good” or “bad.” When you notice yourself having a negative thought, you can remind yourself that’s not YOU. And if you want, you can even replace the thought with something positive because you are in control. Don’t let the thoughts take control of your life, remember that they are there but they don’t have power if you don’t let them. So, yes thoughts will always come, but they don’t have to affect you if you learn to watch them pass without letting them define you or a situation.
