It doesn’t make you disloyal or a bad friend, and you shouldn’t feel guilty about ending an old friendship that no longer serves you. So, how do you know you’ve outgrown a friend?

    If you’ve been following me for a while, you know my struggles with weight loss.

    92: From A T-Shirt To MultiMillion Dollar Business ft Kalilah Wright

    Kalilah Wright is a designer and graduate architect. She started her first business at 12 years old when she created a “cool club” at school and charged kids a membership fee of $0.35 a week. Of course, at the time she had no idea that she would venture into being a businesswoman and entrepreneur. Kalilah is the founder of T-Shirt company “Mess in a Bottle” which allows you to say what you want without ever having to say anything at all. Mess in a Bottle is an expressive brand, and it allows an individual to be outspoken and vocal by wearing their message.

    90: 6 Hobbies That Can Give You an Immediate Happiness Boost

    There’s something magical about this time of year!  I love fall, but after the initial excitement of pumpkin-flavored drinks and sweater weather wears off, the shorter days and chilly temperatures can leave me feeling physically and mentally drained. If this is the case for you, too, you’re not alone. As the season changes, it’s natural for our moods to shift too. Experts have confirmed that a decrease in daylight can affect our sleep, energy levels, and social ability. While it’s essential to take steps to protect your mental health all year round, the change in seasons may require extra support. We need to be proactive to prevent the fall and winter blues from setting in.  This year, I’ve decided to make a commitment to protect my mental health by picking up new hobbies that support me in a positive way.  Today I want to talk with you about some of the hobbies I plan to take on and I’ve thrown in a few hobbies that I personally won’t be doing but I do think they will be great for you.    TIME STAMPS [02:41] Cooking new soups [04:09] Calligraphy can help boost your happiness [08:23] Why I’m getting back into photography [13:55] Beat your face sis [22:55] Meet my plant babies [34:50] Journaling  Support for the Look On The Bright Side Podcast comes from:  Jessie Monroe Nail Care:  Visit JessieMonroeNailCare.com and save 20% on your entire order (excluding bundles) with code BrightSide20Resources Mentioned in the episode Show Notes (here) PLANTS Apartment Therapy ft The Plant Doctor (watch)Planterina (watch)Christopher Griffin the @PlantKweenMAKEUP Jackie Aina (watch)BeatFace Honey (watch)Destiny Godley (watch)Don't forget to watch the video podcast on  Patreon and visit my blog for additional resources.

    89: Is Getting Less Sleep #Goals?

    Many of us know that we feel better after “a good night’s sleep” and more grumpy or foggy if sleep deprived. And there is now robust evidence similarly supporting that sleep is critical to not only our physical health but also our mental health.
