    In this episode, we open up about our real feelings toward being in a digital world and how it can seem so connected, yet so disconnected at the same time. We discuss how living in this new era feels like it has plagued us with an unstoppable addiction, being glued to our phones. We talk about how it can seem impossible to step away, even if we try. We open up about how we attempt to navigate the immense feelings of loneliness, self-doubt, and disconnection that come with this new-age "addiction."

    Ep. 12 of Getting DeepAF: Our Journey with Alcohol- How to Step into a Better Version of Yourself

    In this episode, we share our personal journeys with alcohol. We reflect on how drinking once played a major role in our social lives and identities, driven by peer pressure and the desire for social acceptance. Over time, we both experienced negative effects such as fatigue, anxiety, and feeling stuck, which led us to reconsider our habits. Our decision to cut back stemmed from a desire for better health, improved mental clarity, and more meaningful connections. We openly discuss the challenges we faced by stepping away from alcohol for a period of time, including the struggle to redefine fun without drinking. No one talks about this enough... Rather than being a lecture, we invite you to listen to our personal stories as we reflect on our own relationship with alcohol. We just want those who may be experiencing these thoughts and feelings to know that they are not alone. It took us a lot of time to get to where we are now by understanding happiness truly comes from aligning with what genuinely nourishes your mind, body, and soul.  Never hesitate to reach out to us. We are only a dm, text, or call away! Sending lots of love this Wednesday!

    Ep. 11 of Getting DeepAF: How to Shift from Negative to Positive Self Talk

    In this podcast episode, we talk about the power of self-talk and how shifting from negative to positive inner dialogue can transform your mindset. We explore how therapy can help you uncover your own answers, rather than relying solely on external advice. We also discuss journaling as a powerful tool for gaining clarity, sharing helpful prompts and techniques like gratitude lists and stream-of-consciousness writing. Additionally, we dive into the importance of language, highlighting how small shifts—like saying "I’m having anxious thoughts" instead of "I’m anxious"—can make a big difference. Finally, we talk about meditation as a way to sit with uncertainty and connect with your inner wisdom. By combining these practices, you can build self-trust and discover that the answers you’re seeking are already within you.
