DISCLAIMER: I am not a licensed doctor or therapist. These is just my experience with medication. You should always consult with a doctor when making decisions about which medication is right for you.I recorded this episode about a week and a half ago. I hesitated to share because it felt incredibly personal, vulnerable, and if I'm being honest, scary. However, I wanted to get honest about my experience with medication, the spiritual community, and the effect it had on my mental health—specifically when it comes to the language used in the spiritual community and how it can do more harm than good.I talk about my personal journey with antidepressants after years of resisting them because of the deeply-rooted shame that comes with the "high vibes only" culture. If you've ever felt confused, judged, or gaslit by spiritual rhetoric, this one's for you.
Last week I mentioned sharing some of my Tiktok content on the podcast, so this is the first episode I wanted to share. In this "mini-episode," I talk about the importance of "slow hobbies." I am learning a lot from this process, mostly patience. Delayed gratification is not new to me, but I do sometimes forget how long things take. When I feel confused, I look to nature for answers. Don't forget that the seed is undergoing immense change before we ever see any "proof of progress" above the soil. Thank you guys for going on this journey with me. The podcast is a living, breathing thing. It is changing with me. The fun is in the exploration, right? "I almost forgot this was the whole point."And, of course, follow me on Tiktok for more content like this. xo, dahlia
Hello from the In-Between!This episode is all about what it means to be in that quiet, raw, in-between space where everything's shifting, but nothing on the outside looks different (yet).A lot of systems and beliefs that I used to depend on have completely disintegrated, and honestly, so did I. I have slowly been shifting, becoming something new. And even if you can't see it from the outside...internally? Everything has shifted. This time period has been all about letting go and trusting the process. Believing it before I see it, and knowing that really letting go means you cannot go back to the old life because it no longer exists.
In this episode, we explore the paradox of receiving through letting go. As I was editing this podcast, I felt like I was speaking to myself. It was a great reminder that sometimes progress feels like regression, but that's often just the pulling back of the slingshot before catapulting forward towards our manifestations. I am so grateful to everyone who listens. Thank you for spending your time and energy with me. I promise I am so grateful to you. And thank you for going through this journey with me. We are just getting started. -dahliaAMAZING MEDITATION: https://youtu.be/Ew7acxhkUuw?si=mLtUJAIC2exeX8VN
Perfectionism isn't just about color-coding planners and obsessing over every tiny detail–it runs way deeper than that. In this episode, I'm breaking down unexpected ways perfectionism might be showing up in your life without you even realizing it. From feeling like you have to “earn” rest to constantly trying to package yourself in a way that's digestible for others, we are getting into the sneaky ways perfectionism keeps us stuck–and more importantly, how to break free. If you've ever felt like you need to know everything before you can speak on it, or like you're only valuable when you're producing something, this one's for you!
What is my subconscious trying to tell me?This episode came straight out of a dream. It was about the search and retrieval of [emotional] baggage and how much that can cost us. We all carry something- beliefs, expectations, old versions of ourselves- that we think we need. But what happens when we finally unpack it, only to realize it was never worth the weight? In this episode, I explore the hidden cost of attachment and how it can keep us from fully living in the present. Through personal insights and reflections, I dive into ways that we hold on to things- not just people or past experiences, but identities, dreams, and expectations that may no longer serve us. If you've ever felt stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-doubt, or struggling to let go, this one's for you! What emotional baggage are you searching for or holding on to, and how much is that costing you?
Over the past few weeks, I have been examining my belief that being good will keep me safe. This episode was a result of the exploration of those beliefs. In this episode, I cover topics about the dangers of spiritual bypassing, understanding anger and boundaries, the myth of being good for safety, the importance of disruption, and liberation from the need to be good.

At the beginning of 2024, I set the intention to "focus on the process rather than the result." In congruence with that intention, I also chose one word I wanted to embody: Courage. This week's episode recaps the surprising results of 2024's experiment, as well as diving into my intentions for 2025. I know that things look really scary in the world right now, but I want everyone to remember that we get to choose what we focus on. Setting an intention for this year will give you something to send your awareness to when the world feels too big and too scary. I will always be here, and one of the main goal's of this podcast is to create a community so that more people can feel seen and heard. My goal is to always be a place where you can come to find hope at most and a distraction at the least. Remember that it is an act of rebellion to create and find joy during times of struggle. I am here, and I am not going anywhere. I love you guys, dahlia
It's a Blast from the Past! (and not just becuase we recorded this interview back in June)Tiktok's Queen of Nostalgia, Jenna Barclay, joins me to discuss everything from our favorite Y2K trends to the deeper conversations about how social media has rewired the minds of an entire generation. We discuss the early days of paparazzi, the fears that surrounded the new millennium, and how the consumption of media has evolved over the last two decades.All of these conversations led to the ultimate question:Are we nostalgic for an era that never existed?*this week's episode was initially supposed to be on video, but due to editing software changes I was unable to load the video.

Hello again! I am still working on getting my editing software, so no theme song today. I am still working with the changes that Spotify for Podcasters has been throwing at me, so bear with me as I figure it out :) This week's episode was inspired by a movie called Perfect Days. The moral of the story is that even in a life that is a bit structured and even repetitive, we can find beauty in the mundane. That is sort of what I have been experiencing over the past few weeks, even months. I have been forced to slow down, and although I would normally shame and guilt myself over that, I have been working on some psychological reframes that allowed me to open up to the idea that slowing down is not giving up. SLOWING DOWN is NOT GIVING UP. I was reminded that the whole reason we manifest beautiful things into our lives is so that we can experience them. I recognized that I was so focused on "achieving," that I forgot the entire point of our human experience is to just be. And paradoxically--as soon as I remembered that, and turned my attention to the present moment--all of the dreams that I had been longing for started to flow gently and easily to me. So this is just a little reminder that if you feel like you are "falling behind," slowing down is not quitting. We are not on a time schedule. And remember: You cannot miss what you are destined for.

This week piggybacks on last week's episode. I discuss the idea of using manifestation as a form of escapism (inspired by Manifestation Babe podcast) and how settling into the present moment may FEEL LIKE you're failing, but it is crucial to remember—focusing on the present moment is never a mistake. Being honest about where you are is BRAVE. And also a vital component to manifesting—how can you build a bridge from where you are to where you want to be if you don't know where you are?? https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support
Hiiii everyone :) I am so excited to be back. My vacation is OVER and it's time to give you guys an update. This episode does include some tough conversations about parental loss, so trigger warning there—but overall, this episode is important because it's all about taking an honest look about where we currently are and ACCEPTING that truth. And yes, there are a few heavy topics discussed in this episode, but don't let that keep you away. There are lots of happy moments to cover, and I think if you have been experiencing some heavier energy lately, this is actually a great episode for you to check out!

This bitch has been going THROUGH IT. This week's episode gives you a little insight on the revelations I have had during this Dark Night of the Soul. I have had to come face to face with the reality of where I am TODAY vs. where I thought I would be. I speak about the current struggles I have been experiencing when it comes to grief, my career, my home life, and my expectations vs. my reality. I have been exploring the recesses of my mind, venturing off into the dark corners of my soul that I tend to try to ignore while also trying to reset my expectations about where my life "should" be.

This week's episode is an invitation to challenge your beliefs. I have been reading two different books ( 1. ”Don't Believe Everything You Think” by Joseph Nguyen and 2. ”The Astonishing Power of Emotions: Let Your Feelings Be Your Guide” by Esther and Jerry Hicks) and both books touch on the idea that your thoughts are the root of your suffering. Last week I challenging you guys to do an audit of which actions are working and which ones aren't. This week is all about running an audit of which thoughts are serving us and which aren't. I give specific examples from my life and offer a breakdown of how to separate yourself from your thoughts and beliefs and really start to analyze if they are serving your or if they need to be released. ‘Don't Believe Everything You Think” has been so helpful in explaining the difference between “thinking” and a “thought.” I do recommend buying the book because it does offer a lot of great information, AND it has a few great exercises at the end of the book to help you separate which thoughts/activities are conducive to a peaceful existence and which patterns are leading to suffering. with love always, dahlia --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support
When we are expanding our comfort zones, it is important that we check in with which beliefs are serving us and which ones aren't—but it is also important that we check in with our actions and ask ourselves “is this working?” The most important part of this process is to be radically honest with yourself. It can be hard to admit when we could be doing more. Or to admit that the actions we have been taking…just aren't working anymore. And it can be difficult to readjust and recalibrate, but it is necessary if we want to continue to expand and push our boundaries. Sometimes our method of operations has ann expiration date. Things that used to serve us no longer do. And we have to trust ourselves to release those old ways of doing things and invite in new habits, actions, or rituals that have a greater impact on our growth or success. Even becoming aware of what's working and what isn't had a drastic effect on things for me. Just bringing attention to the things that aren't working for me (shame, guilt, stress) showed me that it wasn't my actions that were the issue—it was the emotions that I was carrying into the process with them.

Rosaura is BACK! and this time she has come to discuss one of my all time favorite subjects: Human Design. If you aren't familiar with Human Design, it is basically a super-system that can be used as a roadmap for guidance on how to use your energy as well as just general aspects of your identity that may make you feel more seen than ever before. If you have never generated your human design chart before, here is a link to use before you get started listening: https://www.myhumandesign.com/ OR https://freehumandesignchart.com/ Human design is incredibly dense, so it can be overwhelming to see all of the arrows and gates and numbers, but this episode breaks down the major aspects of human design so that you can at least get started diving into some of the bigger parts of your design.

What are you telling the universe that you're not interested in? Remember that we are CONSTANTLY communicating with the universe. Ask yourself "what am I telling the Universe that I like through my actions?" If the Universe looked at what we were interacting with as an indication that we wanted more of that thing- what would we be signaling that we want more of? What would the Universe think that we enjoy? What message are we sending to the Universe about what we want? I so often learn through my son-sometimes it feels like he teaches me more than I could ever teach him, and this week was no different. He helped me realize that the Universe assumes that what I engage with is what I like, and leave what I don't. In this episode I break down what message we are sending to the Universe about our desires and encourage you to get intentional. Whether you do this in as a full-on vision board, or just write down a quick list, I encourage you to be specific about what you do like and what you don't. And figuring out what you want is only half the battle (although it is a vital first step), the most important factor when manifesting your dream life is to send focus to those things and take actionable steps that are in alignment with the things that you want. Remember, "where focus goes, energy flows." Where has your focus been? Are you happy with the thoughts that have been sending out signals to the Universe about the kind of life that you want to live? If so, keep it up! Have a moment of gratitude to yourself for staying in alignment with your dreams. And if not-simply forgive yourself for getting off-track and reconnect with your purpose. Recommit to your goals. Reenergize your routines and connect back to the habits that are in alignment with that of your Highest Self. And remember that you are not alone on your journey. Healing can be such a lonely journey, and the isolation can feel unbearable, but it is important to remember that so many people feel exactly the way you do. I am here as a resource always, and if I don't know how to help, I am committed to finding someone who can.

Grieving during the holidays was definitely not what I expected—it was definitely much more difficult than I anticipated. But we did it. We made it through. (Not without kicking and screaming and numbing—but we did it nevertheless). I didn't want this podcast to focus on grieving and sadness, but I have to be honest about where I am, so this episode is just a little update about where I am at on my journey of losing a parent, the “mistakes” I've made through the process, and what adjustments I am making to move forward with healthier coping mechanisms. Being patient with myself is not something that comes naturally to me, so if you're like me, I want to encourage you to give yourself a little more space to be a human. And to remember that we can hold two emotions at once—the sadness we feel about our loss, and the inevitable happiness that we will feel again because we are still here. We are still moving forward, and I think we are actually honoring our loved ones by not giving up, but continuing to find joy in the moments that we can. I love you all so much, and I'm always here for you. You are not alone. xo, dahlia --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support
As I looked back through my year, I wanted to give as much focus (if not more) to the good times as I did the “bad.” And as difficult as this year was, I had so many positive aspects to focus on. I give a difficult update that I have been avoiding sharing, but I didn't want it to be the focus of the episode—not this one at least. And I want to thank all of you for being so supportive.

This week's episode covers a wide range of emotions as I update you on the good and bad of what's been going on with me lately—but the overall theme that I want you guys to take from this episode is that when we focus on the good, it carries us through the difficulties that we are facing. I want to give a little trigger warning here, because I do discuss some pretty heavy topics, but again—I want the focus to be on the idea that our dream life could be happening RIGHT NOW and if we don't tune into it, we could miss it. I want to thank all of you guys for your continued support as I navigate this difficult time in my life. And I want to really emphasize that despite it being one of the hardest things I have ever gone through, I have also been overwhelmed by the beauty of my life. I have made the decision to ACTIVELY focus on the positive and the beauty, but also remind you that it's okay if you are going through something right now that feels too heavy to see the bright side. Grief is such a roller coaster of emotions, and I have definitely had really dark days where it doesn't feel like I have anything to be joyful about; but again I want to encourage you to find even the smallest flicker of joy and send all of your energy and awareness to that and allow yourself to be amazed by how your life will change. I am sending you all so much love and gratitude. Always remember that you are not alone, and I want to build a community of support & I know that starts with me.

This week's episode is about the difference between dedication and commitment. The two words are relatively synonymous, however there's one small distinction—passion. When passion is involved, you will find yourself coming back to something regardless of how difficult it is. We do things not out of obligation, but out of inspiration. I encourage you to check in with your commitments & decide if you want to rededicate yourself to them. Maybe you took a break, and that is OKAY—but love and passion for that thing, that task, is going to be what keeps bringing you back; and I encourage you to revisit that thing you have put on the back burner and make it a priority once again.

!!TRIGGER WARNINGS!! This week's episode carries a LOT of heaviness with it. I speak very openly about depression, suicidal thoughts and feelings, and sexual assault. Now there is a happy ending--but if this is a conversation you do not yet feel ready to have, I encourage you to take your time and listen at a time that feels right for you. I just want to remind everyone that it is okay if you are experiencing depression and encourage everyone to feel safe existing with those feelings. I also want to encourage you to NEVER feel shame when it comes to your mental health. I know this is easier said than done, and that's something I discuss in this podcast episode as well. Even though I am- for the majority of the time- an open book, there are still some things that are very difficult for me to talk about. My battle with depression is definitely one of them; but to pretend that it doesn't exist is a disservice to myself as well as others who have had a similar experience. I encourage everyone to check out the link to Adriene's yoga class EVEN if you've never done yoga. It is a gentle, easy class that really helped me tap into those emotions I had been running from and really lean into the present moment and the feelings I am currently experiencing. with so much love, dahlia Yoga with Adriene: https://youtu.be/u8sC_bhpCYQ TED talk: https://youtu.be/IDPDEKtd2yM Contact me: https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw or email me at: dahliabradshaw@bitchopediapodcast.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support

The story of the tortoise and the hare has been on my mind a lot lately. Lately, life has felt a bit like a string of Sprints all back to back, and that can lead to burnout with (often) very poor results. There is a time to push, and force, and forge ahead—but we also need to remember that there is no rush to success. It will find us in the time that it is meant for us. What's most important for us is that we find a lifestyle with habits that are sustainable. https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support
Sometimes just getting out of bed is hard, and there are absolutely going to be days where we have ZERO motivation—but this is my plea to you to keep going.

Use this moment to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and reconnect to your goals.

This week I've been focusing on Parts Integration—a procedure under IFS Therapy (Internal Family Systems). The theme of the last few weeks have been trying to synthesize these seemingly opposing forces/beliefs into one cohesive unit. However, this has not necessarily come to me easily. I often worry that integration means losing parts of myself. So this week I started reading the book “No Bad Parts” by Richard Schwartz. I have had more success with IFS than any other type of therapy. I encourage everyone to check out this book. **I thought I had access to a free audiobook on YouTube, but it's been taken down, womp womp.

Update on my 30 Days of Prioritizing Pleasure Journey. This week I want to remind you that over-correction is not a bad thing, it's NORMAL. We are learning to make different choices that are in alignment with our purpose, and that is not an easy thing to do. As we heal, we have to learn to trust ourselves to make the right decisions--and this can be hard when you don't trust yourself. So allowing myself to make mistakes has been a vital part of this journey.

Trigger Warning. This week's episode is deeply personal. I discuss my recent struggle with depression and medication. In my pursuit to take care of my mental health, I have decided to Prioritize Pleasure. I realized that I was sending mixed signals to the Universe because I didn't even know what I want. I still don't. So, for 30 days, I will be searching for things that make me feel good. I want to get curious about pleasure. Because if I want the Universe to send me the things that I want....I have to figure out what those things are. So I welcome you to come on this journey with me. Get curious and explore what it is that makes us happy; and not just look for pleasure--but prioritize it. Thank you guys so much for all of your support.

However, I felt like this was an important conversation to have. Rosaura and I spoke about how this type of trauma is often invalidated, and I want you all to know that Body Dysmorphia and Eating Disorders are serious issues. They can bleed into every area of our lives. So, though this episode may be triggering, it felt like it was a conversation that I needed to have. This week, we discuss listening to your body, coming to a point of neutrality about food, the effects of family dynamics on eating habits and body image, and working through our trauma to see food as a source of energy rather than something that is directly connected to our WORTH. Thank you guys for listening, and I want you to know that even if I don't have the answers you need--I want to connect you to someone who does. So ALWAYS ALWAYS feel free to reach out if you are struggling. My goal is to be a safe space where you can be heard and supported. I love you guys, dahlia Connect with Rosaura: https://linktr.ee/rosaura_alvrz Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support
Have you ever struggled to find your niche? Your sweet spot? Do you worry about leaving jobs that don't make you happy, or relationships that are no longer serving you, because you see walking away from them as a “failure”? This week's episode is all about releasing the shame from trying new things; and about how the creative process is messy. And that when we allow ourselves space to be imperfect, we open up the door of opportunities and manifestations that we never dreamed were possible.

The focus of the past 7 weeks for me has been "surrender." Now don't get me wrong--it has been a struggle the entire time. BUT! When I am able to surrender in those moments, the ease with which I move through my life astounds even me. It feels like the more we try to control and force our manifestations, the more likely they are to happen... but paradoxically, the opposite is true. The more we release our grip on the attachments to how we think our manifestations should come about--the more likely we are to receive them. We just have to open ourselves up to the idea that the universe is going to surprise us.

Have you ever been working really hard, and just as you begin to see results and find your groove—something happens and stops your progress dead in its tracks? This can be INCREDIBLY discouraging. You should absolutely take your time and listen to what your body is telling you to do. However, I also encourage you to have a real, honest check-in with yourself and ask “am I sitting in the victim role?” It is easy to get stuck there—it gives us the freedom to avoid accepting responsibility for our circumstances. And it is a SLIPPERY SLOPE. So with this in mind, this week's episode is about adapting to change and not sitting on the sidelines long enough to let it effect our progress. Sometimes, there are things that cannot be changed. Let yourself off the hook for those things. Focus solely on what you have control over, and you will know at the end of the day that you did everything you could, & you can trust the universe to take care of the rest. https://linktr.ee/dahliabradshaw follow me on social & keep an eye out for a manifestation course—podcast listeners will have a chance for a free course! :)) stay strong, y'all dahlia --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitchopediapod/support

I have been taking this time to LEARN and grow, and really focusing on investing in myself. In this episode, I talk about what that has looked like for me and ways that you can invest in YOURSELF. It all started with this episode of Be Great with Nate: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/be-great-with-nate/id1503914610?i=1000590323448 Nate discusses what it looks like to really face the numbers and get honest with yourself about your financial situation. So, I took what he taught and put it into action, & honestly I have seen nothing but positive improvement—even when it didn't feel safe to trust those improvements. I hope you guys enjoy this episode, and feel free to reach out & share how you investing in yourself!

Jenny Hwang has been a psychologist for over 20 years, and now through Tiktok, she is reaching people around the world in hopes of teaching them how to navigate parenthood. She focuses specifically on how to parent...DUH DUH DUHHHHH... Teenagers. *shudders* Jenny offers so many great tips on how to better communicate with teenagers, but she also really helped me understand a lot about how and why my parents made the decisions that they made during my childhood and teen years. She has so much insight on how to navigate the treacherous waters of parenthood, but she also offers us one of the most important reminders that we can have as both parents and children--parents are just human. https://linktr.ee/projectparent?utm_source=linktree_profile_share
