One Bed One Bath

Hi Friends!The excitement of a new relationship can be fun and a euphoric experience. We want to put our best foot forward and prioritize our partners. However, the dark side to this experience can lead to resentment, unsustainable expectations, and (in a worst-case scenario) premature endings, if we aren't careful in knowing how to set healthy boundaries to keep our identity and have a strong sense of self. In this episode, I share my thoughts, reflections, and my two cents on the importance of keeping your identity,  ways I've chosen to maintain individualism, and the questions and conversations you and your partner (or with anyone that is special to you) can use to sustain your sense of self and keep your relationship strong and healthy.

Hi Friends!Have you ever felt like you wasted your 20s because you didn't do what your friends were doing? Peer pressured into attending an event because of the hype? Felt like you could have been at a particular stage in your career or love life if you simply did x, y, and z?

I can proudly say that I have overcome it through my most recent experience this past summer. Tune in to hear my story and what I've done to put FOMO at bay.

Hi Friends! 

Aaaah, the hunt. The move. That apartment life. Summer is almost here and it's a battlefield out there to search for the next apartment. Thankfully I won't be moving anytime soon and my rent only went up by $50 (thankgoodnessitsonly50), however, I want to share some of my tips and tricks for the hunt for others who need to leave their current place. Some of the things may be tricks of the trade and others may be common sense. I hope you guys enjoy today's episode!

Ello Friends!!! (whipping out my Bri-ishh accent)I've been doing many reflections and deep inner thoughts lately. Hence why I haven't uploaded anything recently. Life has a funny way of feeling slow and fast all at the same time. This episode was a spur of the moment since I have been working on other episodes prior to releasing this one.It's definitely been a work in progress learning to perfect my craft of podcasting. I've been on the struggle bus trying to find not only the time but the motivation. I am far from perfection and I'm far from what I'm satisfied with. All I can do is my best, right? And hopefully, over time I'll get better. :D I hope you guys enjoy it!Julie

Hopefully, it adds more of a clearer picture of the types of topics I plan on discussing throughout this podcast. In today's episode, I touch on how I've been meeting people in my new city and how being alone for Thanksgiving and the holidays doesn't have to be sad and depressing. Of course, I might share a story here and there.Enjoy and HAPPY THANKSGIVING! :)Submit your topics via DM at the One Bed One Bath's IG account:IG: @obobpodcastwww.onebedonebath.buzzsprout.com/#onebedonebath #onebedonebathpod #obobpodcast #obobpod
