Our brain is the command center and our minds a powerhouse that can either be our biggest support system or at times, an unhelpful roadblock or even an enemy.

In this episode, I talk about WHY we have these unproductive thoughts or thought patterns, and HOW to effectively address and acknowledge them, while putting a stop to letting our thoughts spiral out of control.

The most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves, and these practices can help us create and build a loving relationship with all parts of us so that we no longer allow unconscious beliefs or patterns to drive our conscious actions.

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will rule your life and you will call it Fate.” - Carl Jung

Our perception of self, the external world, and our place in it is the most critical part of living a life we desire, in small essential ways and in large goals that propel us forward. In this episode, I break down what exactly is self-worth, and why it's incredibly important to strengthen or increase our sense of self-worth. Lastly, I share 4 steps/practices on how to begin this process.

After an extended hiatus, we are back! Funny that I named this podcast 'Paths Back to You", because that was precisely what I have been struggling with for the past year or so. In this first episode back, I invite you to take a moment wherever you are in life, to remember that it is completely natural to get lost on the paths that are guiding us back home, or toward something new altogether. You are not alone.

I believe there's an intimate connection, a boundedness between love and loss.  A correlation between the depth of the love we experience and the profound loss and grief that may someday follow. Through every disappointment, every diminishing connection, or the dissolution of love, I have always found such treasure through each heartache. 

In this episode, we dive deeper into the inextricable relationship between the two, and how to navigate through this complex dynamic. 

Some days love and grief may taste the same. Like honey or bitter medicine, and both are necessary and delightful ingredients.

Do you ever catch yourself feeling nostalgic for what was? Or feeling that if and only if you reached another "destination",  "chapter" or "thing" in your life, then you can finally feel at ease. Or perhaps you get so caught up in the "what ifs" that it feels paralyzing at times to move forward. It's so human of us to cling and grasp, all with either rose-tinted glasses on, or impossibly catastrophic stories in our heads.  In this episode, we talk about why it's so paramount to remain in the present and some practices for a reality check of the "facts" of the past and future.
