    Trying to get myself out of such an overwhelming week as I'm full into this new chapter of my life! But I want to make it a point that I really want to continue to prioritize my own self-care and making time for the things that make me happy, and truly the things that have played the biggest role in getting me to this point of well-being that I am now.

    With getting closer to the end of my graduate program (humble flex fr) I find myself with higher levels of anxiety about being done. I've found myself wanting to take more or longer breaks in an attempt to push off the inevitable of graduating. When I started this program, I told myself I have the duration of the program to "fix" myself and my own mental health status. But life had other plans for me of course, and rather than picking myself up over the last few years, I ended up going deeper and deeper under. Which has contributed to me feeling like I'm just not ready to finish. Thank you for being here. www.becomingmiriam.com IG: @ becomingmiriampodcast Producer IG: @ dorayproductions

    Happy 2024! To kick off the new year and what I'm calling Season Three of the Becoming Miriam Podcast, I wanted to share how my new year went and were my mind is at during new year season. Spoiler, its not pretty lol. I've also made the decision that during this year I'm going to try to push myself to talk more about how I feel, deal, and manage grief within my life. After all, this is a place to document my journey and path to becoming Miriam, a version of myself I'm happy with. Grief is a very big part of my life and it is something I have been avoiding for a long time. With that said, some episodes may end up being audio only so you can expect a mix of audio-only and video podcasts this season. As long as I'm pushing forward, that's all I can do for now.

    I know this year has been all over the place for me, especially here on the podcast. It truly feels like I lived so many different lifetimes this year. It is crazy how much happened this year. The first half of this year was a completely different universe compared to the second half for sure. From people coming back into my life, losing more loved ones, having no hope for anything, to deciding to invest in hobbies and interests again, it has all been a wild ride. I wanted to do one last episode to close out this year. I truly hope the new year can get back on the path to becoming Miriam, a version of myself I can be happy with.

Today was my first therapy session since finding out of my close friend Denisa's passing. It was a hard session of course, but I think it was important and will be impactful as I continue down this journey of growth, healing, and becoming. It's difficult, but I am trying really hard to not get lost in the darkness again. Thank you for listening and sticking with me on this journey.

    I'm not gonna lie to you all, I was kind of just rambling here so idk if any of this made any sense. I think I was just kind of projecting my insecurities and feelings of not being important in peoples live. I completely understand that others have their whole lives and cannot be fully invested in me and my healing journey, just as I don't have it in me to be FULLY invested in theirs. I do my best because I know the feelings of loneliness too well, but even still I know I can't hold their hand every step of the way, which is what I wish I had for me I guess. Because going through these dark times is exhausting and the worst, so of course I don't want to do it. I wish somebody would just come and do it for me, hold my hand and walk me through the healing process. But as we all probably know, this is my healing journey and only I can hold my own hand. Knowing this doesn't make it any easier, I still get these ugly thoughts of feeling like nobody cares. I was just venting about it I guess. But to be clear, I know I have good people in my life who DO care. So I'm sorry if this episode makes me sound ungrateful.
