It's our final episode of BRB Dating Myself! For today's show, we each prepared 5 soundbites extrapolated from previous episodes and reflected on how things have progressed, regressed, and simply just changed.The themes that emerged were compassion and community - (funny that) - meaning what I'd love to recommend to you this week, is to make an effort to show yourself more compassion and make an effort to seek out community. These simple concepts, often overlooked can have a dramatic effect on our wellbeing.You’re joined on every episode by cross-continental duo Milly (@millyrosebannister), Founder of GRLKND (@wearegrlknd) and Manali (@manalidatar__), Performer & Activist for this 12-part crash course on what exactly it means (and why it’s important) to date yourself...Get our bi-monthly personalized letter packed with love and recommendations: https://www.grlknd.org/ Anti-Racist Leadership Resource: www.grlknd.org/blacklivesmatter(USA) Text HELLO to Crisis Text Line: 741 741(Australian) Helplines: https://bit.ly/3ekaW6OFree GRLKND App: https://apps.apple.com/au/app/grlknd/id1504832528GRLKND is a non-profit organisation connecting female-identifying youth to mental health resources.

Welcome back! We’re calling this Double Date, where we discuss our sense of self and our social perception and how these may differ based on environmental factors. Manali and I have now had a number of live, recorded chats on this podcast, from Brisbane and Melbourne, Australia, and while our intention was to provide a safe space for you to sit with us, we unintentionally got to know each other and even ourselves a little bit more, which is incredible...

Hey cute face, here's the deal... sparkly goals and magical visions for 2020 were well and truly HAD, but life happens and we must rebuild.

We're back in your ears with what we intended this episode to be - a chat about what’s at the crux of a true self-date experience at home.

Welcome back to our safe corner of the internet. We're back from our mid-season break and are excited to sit down with you for a chat about (realistic) hedonistic movement, or joyful movement, if you will. We think it's about time to make the work, work for us.

In the FINAL (omg) episode of the GRLKND Podcast Season 1, we chat with Nike Dream Leader, Alexa Luria. During my time in NYC, Alexa always encouraged me and kept me accountable for looking after my body and mind with movement. I was always so impressed with the way she shows up for herself every single day, so I begged her to jump on the final show of the season with me. She finally caved and here we are...This episode of the GRLKND Podcast is brought to you by the SONY XB32 Wireless Speaker. To learn more about this portable festival sound-maker, click here!You can follow Alexa on Instagram over at @lexie1225, she posts really beautiful reminders about what self-care, self-love and joyful movement really means.You can find her favorite song 'Love on Myself' here.PS: What's a Dream Leader? Great question! It's a title bestowed on movers and shakers by Nike's latest campaign, #DreamWithUs, that’s encouraging women to pursue and share their dreams!! Because having a dream won’t change the world - Sharing one will.Thanks for tuning in one last time to the final episode of the GRLKND Podcast Season 1, we will be back in your ears with a very different and very exciting new season, March 2020!Always remember you are not alone, you are strong, you are loved and of course, we are GRLKND, like mankind but not at all.

I'm the 'hurry up' queen. Today on my 23rd birthday, as I reflect on how much self-growth has happened in the past 10 years, I wanted to read you a letter I wrote to my younger self, confirming everything I wish I had known back then.Biggest takeaways:Mental Health MATTERS It's OK not to be okayYou are NOT aloneStay true to YOUStay away from TOXICThis is our last episode of 2019 (or is it)?Thank you for sitting with us in our first season of the #GRLKNDpodcast.Come hang on Instagram too: @wearegrlkndxxx

IT CAN BE SO DAUNTING - thinking about a big chunk of unstructured time with the company of only yourself and your overactive mind. BUT, according to the NY Times article, Why You Should Find Time to Be Alone With Yourself', there's evidence to suggest that intentionally choosing to spend time doing things by yourself can have mental, emotional and social benefits.So, from one loner-phobe to another(?), hear me out, don’t confuse loneliness with time by yourself, and lean into hanging solo, because I think it can be a really, really good thing.PS: If you want to hear more advice straight from GRLKND psychologist, Danielle Dowling, you can join her free 'Office Hours' via her Facebook Group, 'Radiant Living' and ask her questions every week on Wednesdays from 12-1pm PT!

Are you okay? With the ever-rising frequency of conversation around mental health, IRL and online, women are feeling the pressure to either ‘join in’ on the herd mentality of disorders like anxiety as if it were contagious, OR worse, feeling like their experiences are discounted because of the herd. This is not cool! What is cool - education around what mental health can look like, reminding yourself that your experience and mental health journey IS valid and so is the girl’s next to you.This Global Mental Health Day, @WEAREGRLKND is joined by psychologist, Amy Kate from @TheMindfulCollective. Join us as we real-talk in our pyjamas about how mental health intersects personality, and more juicy, important stuff!Take care, be gentle, be kind xxx

Give it up girl. Yes, ya heard me. I’m telling you to give it up. There’s not many circumstances where I would tell you to give up on something, but this time, I am advising you, quite passionately, to give up on perfection. Why? Because you’re chasing something that literally, does not exist.In this episode, we unpack your ideas of 'perfection' and then we throw them in the trash (or rubbish for my Aussies), so you can create a whole new empowering pattern in your psyche and magnetically call in what you desire most to feel full.Join the IG party @wearegrlknd!Sign up for our weekly letters here!See you next week xo

So many question marks?? Whilst every one of us encountered individually different experiences around friendship in high school, we all entered the adult world feeling like we lost a great deal of friends. Maybe we did, that's okay.Here's a story of two little girls who lived next door to each other, then on opposite sides of the world. Did they grow apart? Yes and no. Friendship is complicated, but oh so worth it.Thanks for sitting with us this week!

"I felt that not only did we outgrow each other towards the end, but we grew consciously in two separate directions from the very beginning. I felt that I loved too hard and he didn’t catch me when I fell because he wasn’t even in the same metaphorical room."You can probably guess from the episode title, we’re about to dive into some real-talk about break-ups. Yep, we’re going there and don’t worry if you’re happily already flying solo or in a wonderful relationship, this chat is more about you than anything else.

Perhaps up until now you’ve been quite passive and uncaring about what you’ve been eating, but it’s time we realise, our bodies deserve better. Maturity means taking responsibility for yourself, which can be challenging, but to improve the quality of your life, well that’s well worth the effort. I’ve got to tell you sister, staying well is a heck of a lot easier than trying to get well.This episode's a goodie - With sustainability and health in mind, Alanna (@lanaeatingpositive) takes an evidence based non-diet approach to nutrition I can totally get behind that.

As kids we move our bodies just because it's fun. But somehow, as adults we often lose that "YAY" factor when it comes to exercising. I get it, life happens. But we were born to move, to generate energy that, in turn, helps us make better, healthier decisions in the rest of our days and the rest of our lives. This episode brings a whole lot of real-talk on exercising and hacks for bringing the yay back!Follow Hally here: @playfultfitnessFollow us here: @wearegrlkndxxx

Audrey Hepburn has always been a role-model to many, and the epitome of grace and poise. Why do you want poise? Because when you have poise, you have total physical and mental mastery over yourself. It’s the grand finale of all our self-development. When you have poise you can walk and talk with confidence. It’s not about impressing anybody else, it’s about feeling like the best version of you. Poise is made up of self-confidence, self-worth and a whole lot of self-respect. Poise is honesty and integrity. It’s having the dignity to do the best for you and holding your head high.Come and join the party on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/wearegrlknd/Join GRLKND for Freee!:https://www.grlknd.com/letsdothis

I was absolutely touched by this story. In my research during the conception of GRLKND, I found that Beyond Blue states, "Suicide is the biggest killer of young Australians and accounts for the deaths of more young people than car accidents." I struggle to grapple with this concept and I know I’m not alone.

Amy Kate is a dear friend of mine who founded @TheMindfulCollective. Amy is a Psychologist practising from Brisbane, Australia, also creating products and courses designed to inspire mindful and compassionate change in young women (and the young at heart). It shattered Amy to see how many wonderful women end up in her treatment room because they haven't been taught how to care for themselves, nurture themselves and value themselves. This is what she has now dedicated her life to, alongside her gorgeous therapy dog Evie.

This prolific event has struck the world and although, I feel completely out of my depth speaking about such a sensitive topic, it is part of our story as women, and I feel it is my duty to facilitate a conversation that supports women’s rights. I’ve come to understand that this law is more pro-birth than pro-life and certainly anti-choice and anti-women’s bodily autonomy, which is why it's so important for us to uphold the human right of autonomy over our bodies and the right to exercise our reproductive rights.Be brave, be understanding, speak up and try to get the men around you involved too. Pregnancy and abortion can affect everyone.
