    26: Self-Love Isn’t Selfish: Why It’s the Foundation of Every Relationship

    Most women are taught early that love comes when we give—and approval comes when we sacrifice. Helpful, strong, selfless… but quietly punished for being needy, honest, or tired. That pattern doesn’t disappear—it follows us into adulthood, leaving us exhausted, overgiving, and disconnected from ourselves. In this episode, we’ll explore:  💛 Why self-abandonment is survival, not love, and how it leads to burnout  💛 The hidden ways a lack of self-love affects your relationships  💛 Practical, grown-woman ways to honor yourself: rest without guilt, say no without explaining, and choose ease over proving  💛 A personal story of choosing yourself—and how it transformed my relationships  Plus, a guided pause to reflect on what you’ve been tolerating that costs your peace. If you’ve ever felt unseen, overextended, or like you’re carrying too much alone—this episode is for you. Stop leaving yourself. Start listening to your intuition. ✨Pour yourself a cup of Java take a deep breath, and tune in for a sip of Joy! Don’t forget to subscribe for more self-care and wellness insights! ...

    21. Glow into the New Year — Setting Aligned Intentions, Not Resolutions

    In this 4th and final Reflect & Renew December mini-series episode we explore how the new year is approaching, and with it comes the pressure to set resolutions that often fizzle by February. In this episode of Java & Joy, we’re flipping the script: instead of chasing resolutions, we focus on intentions that truly stick. Join me as we explore how to:  • Understand why resolutions fade and intentions last  • Identify your core desired feelings to guide your year  • Walk through a gentle, guided exercise: “My Vision for the Year Ahead”  • Anchor your goals with beauty + mindset rituals that support your growth  Remember: you’re allowed to evolve gently. Let’s set intentions that nourish your mind, body, and soul — and start 2026 glowing from the inside out. ?S to ask yourself before 2026 to set INTENTIONS NOT GOALS! ✨ “What do I want to experience more of this year?” Joy? Fun? Rest? Fulfillment? Connection? ✨ “What areas of my life feel ready for expansion?” Career, health, creativity, relationships, spirituality, confidence? ✨ “What am I ready to release?” Old habits, fears, beliefs, obligations, patterns? ✨ “What is one thing my future self would thank me for doing?” ✨ “What am I craving more than anything right now?” Let whatever rises… rise. This is your CORE speaking. Use your answers to create your INTENTIONS for 2026 Write Your 2026 Intentional Statement “This year, I intend to live with (core feelings), make choices that support (desire), welcome (new experiences), and release (old patterns).
