    Day 21: Finding Light in Holiday Memories – 30 days, 30 episodes

    Today, I dive into the topic of holidays and the various traditions that shape our experiences. As we approach Thanksgiving and Christmas, I reflect on how my relationship with these celebrations has evolved over the years, especially in light of personal losses and changes. I share memories of cherished moments spent with my grandmother and the unique traditions we created together, from late-night gift unwrapping to family dinners at Olive Garden. However, I also acknowledge how the absence of loved ones can alter the feeling of these festive times. Ultimately, I encourage everyone to embrace what brings them joy during the holidays, whether that's continuing old traditions or creating new ones, and to remember that it's okay to feel a mix of emotions during this season. Takeaways: Holidays can evoke mixed feelings, reminding us of both joy and loss in life. Creating new traditions can help us adapt and find joy in holiday celebrations. The importance of chosen family can be as significant as blood relatives during holidays. Everyone has different attachments to holidays, shaped by personal experiences and memories. Grief can change how we perceive and celebrate holidays, often leading to new customs. Reflecting on past memories helps us appreciate present experiences, especially during festive times.

    Day 19: Feeling Down: A Real Talk on Mental Health – 30 days, 30 episodes

    On Day 19, I share the importance of acknowledging and sharing our feelings, especially during difficult times. I open up about my struggles with sleep and the emotional burden of recent grief, illustrating how these feelings can affect daily life. I highlight that it's okay to not feel great all the time and share the value of having a support system to share these feelings with. I believe verbalizing our struggles can help normalize them, making them feel more manageable. By being honest about my own challenges, I hope to encourage listeners to embrace their emotions and seek connection during tough times. Takeaways: It's important to acknowledge when you're not feeling great and share those feelings. Taking time off to care for yourself is essential for mental well-being and balance. The pressure of podcasting can lead to frustrations, but it's crucial to remember the purpose. Normalizing feelings of sadness and struggle helps us connect with others who feel the same way. Acknowledging your emotions and expressing them can alleviate the anxiety and burdens you carry. Every episode may not resonate with everyone, but each story has its audience and purpose.
