Spilling With Sarah

Welcome back to tea session 23! Today's topic is all about mental health. I know I have talked about this before but I think it's so important to own how your feeling at this moment in your life. The good, the bad, and all of the in between. After all, that is how we move forward. Am I right? Anyways, hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 22! The 20's are such an important decade of our lives and while they are happening we really don't realize just how much life teaches us-the good and the bad. Recently I celebrated my 29th birthday and as I sat and reflected on my life and the past year, I started to write down important things that I took away from the past year. While all of our journeys are different I think reflecting on things you learn is a important and crucial as we grow. This is something I do every year so I can look back and see how much I have learned and how much I have grown as a person in different areas of my life because it's easy to not realize these things while they are happening. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 21! It has been a hot minute since my last episode. There have been a few bumps in the road over the last few months. Mental health has been a struggle for me so it has been a primary focus to pick myself up and figure out what to do and where to go from here. Mental health is something so many of us struggle with. It can be the smallest things- things we don't even realize we are struggling with or are effecting us that actually play a huge role in effecting us. It is so important to make sure we acknowledge when we feel this way, it takes strength to speak up. It's okay to focus and reset to get your mind to a happier and healthier place. Today, I talk about all things mental health related and some things I have been doing to get myself back on track. For anyone struggling, I am always here to help in any way I can. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 20! I can't believe that I've already recorded 20 episodes, that shit is crazy. There is a real sense of beauty in letting go of things from the past that have held you back for so long. Not to say we don't all have moments and days where things still weight us down but really letting go of all the negativity that holds us back from growing and evolving is essential. Growth and change are both really painful processes and not easy processes to master. You really have to give yourself the chance to change and grow in order to see or feel a difference. Make an effort to consciously loosen your grip on everything that's behind you so you can step forward with grace. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 19! Once again I am getting sappy today. I was going so organizing and I found a notebook that me and my little brother used to write different things down in. As I started to go through it I found just some important things or “lessons” that we would talk about together. His wisdom and strength was unlike anything that I have ever experienced. I instantly was reminded of just how strong and courageous he was and I wanted to share this. I think it is important to really not let the hard things in life define or harden you. That is something that he taught me that will forever stick with me. Have faith that you are exactly where you are meant to be even if it seems impossible, this is something I really have had to remind myself of recently. We are all fighting battles every single day. So, be kind and do what you can to help others. Remain hopeful that everything will work out exactly how it is supposed to- look at that bigger picture. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 18! It has been a hot minute since I made an episode due to some personal bumps in the road but I am back in action baby! I've really been dissecting my life as whole recently and I have been asking myself where I see myself in the next five years. Like many people I am nowhere that I thought I would be and I am extremely hard on myself about it. There is no perfect roadmap to life and everyone's life is obviously different. Having goals in mind and trying to create a better life for yourself is the key to success. We obviously don't know what can happen in the next year, or month, or even hour but doing something as simple as setting goals for our future self can make all of the difference in the world. It's never too late to start creating the life your future self wants now. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 17 and Happy Valentines Day! Today is a day that looks a bit different for everyone. Some of us are in relationships and some of us are alone- days like today remind those who are alone of what they are “missing” or don't have. I am here to remind you that changing your perspective can make all of the damn difference. You are the best company you could ever have. Love is about becoming the right person, because that is what you will attract. Stop looking for someone to spend your life with and be the person you want to spend your life with. The best thing I have ever taught myself is how to be alone, because then everything extra is a bonus in life. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to Tea Session 16! I can't even put into words sometimes just how special my little brother was to me. February 3rd is the day that he passed away and it is always undoubtedly one of the hardest days for me. The power of kindness and love really goes a long way when dealing with the grieving process. My biggest hope is to be the person my brother would want me to be carrying the best parts of him with me. Cheers to a Great and Amazing soul. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 15! For the last few years with everything that has happened in my life I have been struggling with how to deal with the anxiety I have facing the outcomes of situations. I have been finding different ways to deal with my thoughts and emotions through this process and naturally I wanted to share. Creating clarity, connection, consistency, and changing the perspective within my life is something that has made a huge difference. Sometimes when you are not able to change the outcome of a situation you really have to change the way that you look at it in order to continue to navigate through whatever else life may throw your way. As I am learning and growing I hope that my words are able to create some clarity and direction for anyone who has felt these things before or is feeling a little lost. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 14! 2022 has already been off to not the greatest start so I figured what better way to navigate through some rough days by making an episode on different things you can do to turn a bad day around. Bad days are inevitable and no matter what we are always going to have them, that is just a part of life. This is where your mindset and perspective can make the biggest impact and the biggest difference. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 13- It has been a while! Life got a little chaotic but one of my many goals for this new year is to make sure I stay on top of making content(look at me talking like I'm some important producer or something). Like the basic bitch that I am I figured I'd make my first episode of the new year as basic as possible. One thing I have been doing to remain more organized and intentional this year is make a list on how to “declutter” my life. It honestly it feels great to just write these things down and start to go through things that I never realized I didn't need before or things that I realized I was doing and need to work on and really make an effort to change. It might take me the whole year to get through all of the things that I intend to but that's okay. If this is not something you have done to stay organized, I highly recommend it. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 12! As the season starts to change here in Michigan I was reminded that even though change is a painful process it can also be a beautiful one. Lacking faith can make a person feel empty and it's moments like those where I realize just how important turning to my faith and understanding that everything is happening the way that it is supposed to for a reason. Everyday that we wake up we are all relying on faith to make it through a normal day and half of the time we don't even realize it. Having faith in even the smallest amount can make the biggest difference. Sometimes you have to stop worrying, wondering, and doubting and just have faith that everything will work out maybe not how you planned, but how it is meant to be. Life may get stormy at times, but the the rain doesn't last forever. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 11! As I was sitting here recording this episode it just dawned on me that tomorrow it will actually be two years since my dad was in his car accident and diagnosed with brain cancer. How ironic that grief is the topic I decided to talk about today. Grief, it's such a heavy topic and not an easy thing to talk about or deal with for many of us. I've found that finding acceptance while dealing with this difficult task and emotion is key. After the whirlwind of changes I've been though the last couple of years I wanted to share my thoughts and views on grief with all of you. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 10! Let's face it. At one point or another we all settle for less in life because we are comfortable. In the big scheme of things that does not do a thing for us. If anything it holds us back from our full potential and holds us back from what is really meant for us. Ask yourself why you would want that for yourself. Would you ever want to look back on your life and think "wow, I wish I did more of this, or I wish I just did things differently"- Nobody wants to look back and think these things. Sure, we all have moments but it is important to make sure you recognize what areas you are settling for in life simply because you are comfortable or scared to make a change. We all do it, but only you have the power to change it and life your life to your fullest potential and be your happiest self. Remember that. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 9! Fear is a self inflicted emotion that we allow to have power and control over our lives without even realizing it half of the time. It is the root to half of the problems that we face in life and we don't even realize it. Like anything elses there are different types of fear and different ways to overcome them. A good way to start is to ask yourself what fears are getting in the way of your potential to live a better and more fulfilled life? Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 8! I have been a little MIA the last week or so and once again have been reflecting on a lot of different things. I find my mind wandering to the past often and after revisiting I couldn't stop asking myself if I could go back in time what would I change? There are always going to be things and circumstances that you ultimately wish that you could change, it is inevitable. But, it is how we take the things we have been through, think about them and what we have learned from them, to see just how far we have come. This is a good way to track your growth and think about past situations in a more positive light. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 7! After talking about more serious topics these last episodes I thought it would be fun to switch it up and talk about one of my favorite things. I did a major closet clean out and realized how many things I owned that I caught myself wondering why I ever purchased them in the first place-anyone else ever have a moment like that? I came to the conclusion that there are staple items in everyone's wardrobe that I feel are more essential. Then I dive right into Fall 2021 fashion trends which I think are trends that are here to stay. I am loving what I am seeing so far. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 6! The last week I've encountered a little mental health block so I had to take a little time to myself. That feeling of feeling alone and the fear of being alone has given me a swift kick in the ass lately to say the least. After taking some time to self reflect and dig a little deeper I was able to come to some realizations with self-worth and what it means exactly to be worthy in a relationship and how to deal with being alone a little better. Taking some time to get here and think about these things has helped shift my perspective so I decided I wanted to share. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome to tea session 5! After every birthday I do a little self reflection on the previous year or couple years and I set new goals, kind of like a New Year's Resolution. Lately, I find myself reflecting A LOT over the last couple of years. So, I have come up with a list of 28 things that I have learned over the course of these last 28 years that I feel are important things to learn. Some things I am still learning and trying to conquer but that is all part of the growing process. I hope that these are some things that you can all relate to and are able to learn and grow from too. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome to tea session 4! Today we are getting personal yet again (my specialty) and talking about ways to live a meaningful life. I think when faced with difficult tasks and challenges that life can throw our way we often forget to shift our perspective so we don't fall into the trap of negative thinking. Dealing with the things I have and my dad's cancer diagnosis lately, I find myself struggling. So, in order to shift that perspective I had to take my worries and my sadness and turn it into something more constructive and positive and that is why I decided to share with all of you. Let's not forget we only have one life to live so let's make it the best we can and the most meaningful that we can. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome to tea session 3! Today we keep things a little more on the interesting side. The one question we all always ask ourselves is always how long do we wait to start another relationship after a breakup? In this episode I cover a few different topics that I feel like everyone deals with when dealing with a breakup. Taking time, using dating apps, and setting standards- the three amigos when it comes to being in your 20's and going through this lovely process. Hope you guys enjoy!

Welcome back to tea session 2! This episode we focus on comparing ourselves and our journey to other people's. We all do it, and it is probably the worst thing we can do. I wanted to break down how important the relationship with yourself is in this process and 10 things you can think about when you catch your mind going in that downward comparison spiral. Hope you enjoy!

Welcome to my first episode! Working out all the kinks with editing and uploading. Being in your 20's can sometimes suck, let's face it. I know so many people that are struggling with relationships right now, myself included. I figured I'd introduce myself and go into talking about managing a breakup in your late 20's. Hope you enjoy!
