The limited series podcast "Who Says?" is the one we wish our younger selves could have listened to in the moments when we felt alone and worried we were failing because our lives didn’t look the way we thought they should.
As human beings, we spend a lot of time focused on how we think life should go in order to be happy. But who says we can’t be happy in our lives right now, doing it our way?
Join us in questioning and challenging the things that often get in the way of our happiness and peace of mind. What will you discover is in the way of the life you’ve always wanted?

Who Says You Aren’t a Runner?
Have you ever wanted to be an athlete but didn’t know where to start? Or maybe you just got your dream job, or moved to a new city, and you’re in the, “This is great! And uh, now what?” stage of things?
In today’s episode, we share our thoughts on the highs and lows that come with setting one (or several) long-term goals. Some say the hardest part is getting started while others say it’s staying in consistent action. For Tatiana, it’s answering the question “now how in the world am I going to accomplish this?”
Join us in this light-hearted discussion around goal setting and share your tips on staying motivated at whosaysthepodcast@gmail.com.

Who Says Our Thoughts Are True?
“The only time we suffer is when we believe a thought that argues with what is.” – Byron Katie
You know that experience of getting sucked into a cycle of negative thoughts? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have freedom from those thoughts (the “shoulds”) that steal your happiness and peace of mind?
So did we! Then we were introduced to the magical human being that is Byron Katie, and began to fill our mindfulness toolkits with “The Work”.
Byron Katie believes suffering is created when we want reality to be different than it actually is. “The Work” teaches us how to question our thoughts in order to break free of that suffering.
Join us as we dive deeper into “The Work” and discover the power of the “Judge Your Neighbor” worksheet. What are some of the nagging “shoulds” that you’re trying to break free from? Share with us at whosaysthepodcast@gmail.com!

Who Says You Can’t Have Bad Days?
Not us! Though we sometimes judge ourselves when we do.
That’s why today’s episode is about normalizing the experience of “bad days”. Maybe that's when you’re feeling upset and frustrated about something that happened, or you’re just fed up with how life is going.
Oftentimes we feel guilty about the bad days. We think, “I should be better than this” or “I have the tools to shift my mindset, I should be able to just get over it!” Yup, there is such a thing as transformation shaming.
It's time to kick those judgmental thoughts to the curb, so join us as we share what’s behind our bad days and what supports us in getting back on track. Spoiler alert, the starting point is actively choosing to get out of the negativity swirl but sometimes that first step is a doozy.
And that’s okay! We’ve got you - so bring your lovely, perfectly imperfect self to the episode and join the (pity) party, lol! And don't forget to send us your thoughts to whosaysthepodcast@gmail.com.

Who Says Happiness is the Goal?
Have you ever noticed how your happiness is tied to external factors? For example, “I’ll be happy when I finally get that raise…or partner…or new job…or take that trip.”
In this episode, we share our thoughts about the pursuit of happiness vs contentment. It may sound like semantics but there is power in language.

Who Says You Can’t Dance?
Welcome back to another episode in our self-care series!
Join us as we talk about the connection between self-care and the plans we put off for “some day”. We discuss how easy it is to talk ourselves out of trying something new and exciting, and the joy of finally honoring those desires.
What if self-care is really just a matter of giving ourselves the chance to experience those things that we’ve been dreaming about - like snow tubing or dancing?
