Saturday 4/4: I did a thing

blog

Soooo I finally did a thing….

I finally published my podcast!!! Adventures of the 9 to 5 is now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify! Although it’s really only one episode and a couple blurbs right now, I am excited to record more and hopefully build a community where we can all share our stories and also share what we have all learned from our jobs and experiences.

I honestly recorded the episode that is out now back in December. I was letting my perfectionism get in the way by not letting myself post unless I had a backlog of content, but I then got myself stuck in a freeze state and never recorded anything else. I felt like the only way to break the cycle was to just f*cking send it LOL!

I’m feeling excited and grateful for my friends who are so supportive! I’m also thinking about starting another blog / site that is for my podcast specifically! For now I am working on more content for my Instagram page and I am hoping to record a couple more episodes this month!

If you’re interested, you can search “Adventures of the 9 to 5” on Apple podcasts and/or Spotify! Also, you can search me on Instagram @Adventuresofthe9to5!

Happy April / Happy Full Moon!

blog

I’m using my blog here to cross off item number five on the above list! Happy full moon to everyone!

This full moon, I am letting go of:

• comparison- my journey is my own, and I can only compare myself to who I was yesterday. I cannot compare my body or my lifestyle to other people who do not live my life or have my brain.

• worries that are beyond my control- sometimes I hold onto work stress, as well as general life stress about family and future things that may never happen, and this is only robbing myself of being present and being happy. I can only control so much, and I can trust myself to get through any situations without having to overthink and worry.

• self – doubt- I hold myself back from goals due to my lack of self trust. I often can get into all or nothing mindsets which doesn’t work well when it comes to my health goals (diet mainly), because I have had issues in the past with getting obsessive. I know it’s been years and I have grown a lot, but I clearly still have some fear there.

I am releasing all of these things, as well as anything else that is keeping me blocked and stuck in cycles that are not benefiting me.

May this full moon be magical and powerful for everyone!

Tuesday PM

blog

It’s 9:33pm and I am ready for bed. Today felt extra exhausting, and I think it’s just because I woke up around 2:30-3:00am to this wild storm and had some trouble sleeping the rest of the night. Of course, once my alarm went off at 6:00am it felt like I was in the deepest sleep of my life and I just didn’t want to get out of bed.

Despite being tired, I got up and went to work and had a relatively productive day. I am excited that tomorrow is a new month and a full moon, and I am hoping to feel extra rested tomorrow morning. In order to do that, I must get some rest. Goodnight 🌙

Goals (prompt)

blog

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?

Honestly, I’m struggling with setting and completing goals. I’m going to start seeing a new therapist soon as I feel like I just yap the whole sessions with my current one and it feels more like just venting to a friend, but I’d prefer some structure and guidance. I have a very “all or nothing” mindset which can put me into some unhealthy extremes, and I need to figure out ways to deal with it and learn to trust myself more.

Friday Feels

blog

Happy Friday! Came out to my car and had 222 miles left to go! Of course I had to snap a quick picture and thank my angels for keeping me in alignment. I’m feeling surrounded by love and divine power, and I can just feel a shift in the air (it’s probably just Spring LOL)!

I’m hosting another craft day with the gals this Sunday so I’m excited to see everyone and just chat and make some diamond art! My husband and I are done rearranging for now until his other monitor stands arrive this weekend, and then once those are in and done we will hopefully be purchasing a new couch soon! I’ve been eyeing a sectional with a pullout sofa bed and would LOVE to have that in our living room!

I hope everyone has a fabulous Friday and weekend ahead!

Thursday Thoughts

blog

Mutual respect is absolutely necessary for any successful relationship.

Sometimes letting go is the only answer. Detach from the outcomes and trust.

Rearranging my space / house always feels so nice.

Most people are just projecting their own unlearned issues onto people- stop taking things personally.

Everyone you know is struggling with something in some sort of capacity, it’s better to just be kind always.

Wednesday

blog

Woke up and listened to the new Call Her Daddy episode w Jessi bc I’m slightly obsessed with SLOMW so I’d say today started off great! Work has been okay today and I am just ready to get home and keep re-arranging the house again now that my husband’s “toys” arrived for his racing rig he’s putting together. It’ll be so nice when we have everything set up where it’s supposed to be!
