Welcome to The Lifestyle of the Weird and Interesting Podcast! Where the discussions are about topics that you would never find in a handbook of life. This podcast came about from conversations between two best friends, and through that realizing that everyone is a little bit weird in their own way - but that's also what makes each of us interesting! These are topics that we want to share with others, and "normalize" by talking about them.

    S3 EP 16 - VULNERABILITY & AUTHENTICITY

    Hello friends,Today we are discussing vulnerability and authenticity. Vulnerability and authenticity are interconnected concepts that require courage and practice. Both involve aligning internal experiences with external expressions, often challenging societal expectations. Misconceptions exist: vulnerability isn't weakness, and authenticity doesn't mean oversharing. Listening to your body, starting small, and giving yourself grace are key to developing these traits.Defining Vulnerability and Authenticity:- Vulnerability: willingness to express true emotions, thoughts, and feelings despite risks- Authenticity: alignment between inner experience and outward expression- Both concepts viewed through psychological, biological, and spiritual lenses- Vulnerability creates space for authenticity; authenticity strengthens ability to be vulnerableChallenges and Misconceptions:- Black and white thinking can hinder vulnerability and authenticity- Misconception: vulnerability is weakness (it's actually courageous)- Misconception: authenticity means sharing everything (it involves discernment)- Difficulty in listening to body signals before reaching burnout (especially for Capricorns)Resources:- Brene Brown BooksJournal prompt: If I weren't afraid of judgement, what would I do or say?Crystal: "I would be more loud about my thoughts, feelings, opinions, and morals."Sheena: "I would share more of my raw emotions and unedited thoughts, which would look a lot like a hot take"If you want to be part of the conversation, write to us at weirdlifestylepod@gmail.comPlease rate, review, and share the podcast with your friends to spread the word! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️You can follow us on Instagram!

    S3 EP 15 - GENEALOGY AND ANCESTRAL WORK PART TWO FT. BRANDI P.

    Hi friends,Today we discuss ancestral healing and family lineage work with our guest Brandi Packer. Ancestral healing involves addressing genetic patterns passed down through generations that can manifest in behaviors, relationships, and communication styles. The work requires introspection, vulnerability, and a willingness to change ingrained patterns, but can lead to deeper, more fulfilling relationships and personal growth. Community support and outside perspectives are crucial for this challenging but rewarding process of healing generational trauma.Brandi's Instagram and linktree Brandi's Website If you want to be part of the conversation, write to us at weirdlifestylepod@gmail.comPlease rate, review, and share the podcast with your friends to spread the word! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️You can follow us on Instagram!

Manifestation involves aligning emotions and thoughts with desired outcomes. Various methods exist: scripting, visualization, gratitude practice, affirmations, vision boards.

    S3 EP 12: A 2025 FOLLOW UP TO S2 EP 1 - TAROT CARD OF THE YEAR, ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTIONS, AND GOALS

    Hello friends!Today we are taking a trip down memory lane to discuss what came true and what changed from last season's episode: S2 EP 1 - TAROT CARD OF THE YEAR, ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTIONS, AND GOALS (you can listen here).Both of us experienced significant personal challenges and growth in 2024, aligning with our tarot cards of the year (Crystal: Wheel of Fortune and Sheena: the Devil) and astrological transits. 2024 was characterized by emotional intensity, self-reflection, and transformative experiences for us both. We experienced health issues, career changes, and relationship dynamics that played major roles in shaping events last year. What we learned from these transits and life experiences is the importance of slowing down, being intentional, and valuing personal connections.If you want to be part of the conversation, write to us at weirdlifestylepod@gmail.comPlease rate, review, and share the podcast with your friends to spread the word! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️You can follow us on Instagram!
