    Are You Stressing Your Way Through The Twenties?!

    Although the twenties can be a time of excitement, new experiences, opportunities & self-discovery, it's safe to say that many of us also experience a lot of internal stress! A lot of the stress we experience comes from our own pressures & high expectations for ourselves & our futures. We place so much pressure on ourselves to be successful and land that perfect job, to be financially secure and move into that perfect apartment, to be keeping up with our peers, to have that perfect summer body, to have quality friendships and relationships, and pressures to have high performance in every area of our lives. This can cause unnecessary self-induced stress and prevent us from living in the present. In this episode, we’re pushing external stressors and environmental pressures aside because according to psychology, we too are the ones to blame for our stress levels. In this episode, we dive into the following: The twenties and the pressures that we place on ourselves in this decade The Psychology of self-imposed stress & being trapped in a toxic cycle My own experiences with life stress & realizations about myself The familiarity & habit of stress The sense of accomplishment associated with stressSocial validation & perceived productivity Fear of failure & inadequacy The rise of perfectionism in the Gen Z generation The balance between healthy doses of stress & toxic stress Chronic stress Tips to overcome & manage stress! My experiences with journaling As always I would love to hear your thoughts & feelings on the episode!

    Overcome Your Fear of JUDGEMENT and Start Towards Your Dream Life

    Imagine what you could do, what you could accomplish, and who you would be if you weren’t afraid of how others would perceive you! I think too many dreams and goals have been dismissed due to fear of judgement and social criticism. This episode is not here to tell you to just get over what other people think of you and start expressing yourself because quite frankly... it's not that simple. There are scientific & psychological reasons behind why we fear what other people think of us. This episode is to instead, chat through practical ways that we can overcome this fear and start living a life that's meant for us with confidence! In this episode, we go through: Why we fear judgement from others and social criticisms The science and psychology behind needing to belongThe importance of psychological safety & belonging in our social circles My personal experiences with judgement and struggles with expressing myself How I have been able to launch a self-development podcast and overcome my fear of judgementYour social environment and how this can influence your confidence Creating a tribe of similarity!Subscribing to the right content on Social Media Investing in yourself Building self-confidence As always I would love to hear your thoughts & feelings on the episode!
