Fam! It was a pleasure reading all of your emails with your theme and stories from 2023. I've selected three to share on the final episode of the season.

The Feels is officially 3 years old now. Thank you for 3 amazing years. The goal of the podcast was first to create a space to heal, over time it turned into a space to empower. Without this community, it could not have done either.

I leave you with this reminder: Any desire you have was made for you. If you weren't "allowed" to have it, you would not have the desire for it in the first place. Follow the feeling and let it guide you.

Sending you love in the new year ahead, and as always, talk to you soon. x

*This episode is a follow-up to EP 36.

This was a year in the making! At the start of the season, I decided that we’ll all pick a theme for ourselves to live by in 2023. We’d let it guide us from the back of our minds and see how that intention would manifest for us. Now, 10 episodes later, I’m finally revealing my 2023 theme to you all and sharing the highs and lows that came with it.

This episode is paired with the upcoming one, where I’ll be featuring some of your themes and stories over the year. Keep your emails coming, I’ve been loving reading them all! In case you missed it, you can send in yours via the details below. Stay tuned for EP 47 for your story shout-out!

EP 47 drops 23rd December.

The council has spoken; we're having a meeting with all of our toxic traits ☺ I'm not a fan of the woe-is-me mindset, and this is definitely not a hall pass for us to indulge in victim mentality. However, it is healthy to acknowledge what we got going on that is causing undesirable patterns in our lives, so that we may fire them accordingly.

In this episode, I share a few of my own patterns with you, to create a safe space for you to go within too. These include:

1) Calling it quits early

2) Never fully appreciating the present

3) Strengthening the pillars of self-love (self-trust, self-belief, self-compassion)

As you do this, please remember that in spite of what you acknowledge require looking into, you never need to be perfect before you can be lovable. If you need additional support, you may wish to share your discoveries with a trusted therapist.
