Thoughts In Progress

Today (Day Two) is dedicated to navigation and a redemption of the times lost, connections faded, and faiths jaded. Join me as we offer it up to Greatness and Granted Moments.

In this episode, we dive into why host, Niña Alexandria devoted 30 days to taking only cold showers. After having been inspired by creator and minimalist, Matt D’Avella, she plunges into a series of experimenting & researching to identify the links of baths, choice, and the infamous ‘Flinch’. She didn’t expect the swirl of events, but she shares everything showers & sustainability on this episode! (Like for example, did you know that your shower heater at home is the 2nd largest consumer of energy in the household? Well, you’re about to find out!)

song : terraform, by novo amor struck me in the middle of a plight — that transforming yourself that you may be hospitable once again to yourself and who you are, that you become home again; you are your earth again. this one’s deeply personal to me and the past years i’ve been through. and in this series, i want to dedicate songs and thoughts to each other. lyrics are theirs, thoughts are mine, time is ours. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

On this first episode of the new decade, I bring it back to everything that led me to this point. 2019 brought with it blessings and good things, so a reminder of how truly worth-lived it had been is first on this year’s agenda . Join me as I recount the year I dated, bullet-journaled, travelled, launched, and grew another 365 days older. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

This one’s for the gals that chose to create spaces, in conversations and careers and life changes. From a teen that transforms tech and boundaries, to a self-partnered learner of humanity, and a social media icon that births magic into reality — these women drew fires with their voices and own stages. And in this episode, we hear their stories and the short lapses with mine and their realities; how and why the universe worked hard to lead me inspired : “Binibini, be inspired,” it said. *This episode is dedicated to the chapter, BINIBINI. It’s time to celebrate the gems thats always got our backs, from the artists that reimagined Feminism, to leaders that remade their humanities, and dreamers that redefined their souls and bodies. “Binibini” teaches us what shouldn’t be taught and shows what’s better left unknown — this is a reconstruction of women. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

With just a minute, we’ll talk Affirmations and Intentions. Each day is dedicated to a mantra that supports our commitment to doing better and becoming better as humans.

Offering it up, this episode invites you to a day of empowerment and purposeful action. All in this together; goodluck. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

Transitions, time, tears, and trips along the way (pun intended?) — let’s talk waiting games and cycles that all feel the same. On today’s conversation, we confront the paradox that is transitions — the pauses and blocks and in-between’s. Quite the infamy for slowing down careers and freezing momentums, but let’s hear the magic of patience and perspectives and processes. I’ve reached a beautiful realization that transitions really are a gift. Whether they be a person or a rejection, they catapult us into the new seasons of our life; they build our principles as they throw as into a confusing pile of waiting lines; they write our chapters and set due paces for the story yet to unfold -- stories that are uniquely our own. So, join me and my quite-under-the-weather-voice, and let’s embrace these in-between’s and create our own big little happy middles. *Today’s episode is dedicated to Adulting — A Do_It_Thing, where we talk growing up and filling our life cups. Yes, it’s time to human up because adults a-do-it! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

Beginnings have always been daunting. But perhaps, with encouragement from the universe, we'll see more clearly why they're too worth it to be foregone. In this episode, we talk processes and possibilities - how nothing's can be something's with an ounce of choice, a peek into the larger picture, and a reevaluation of what (and who?) truly matters. Join me in kick-starting this pursuit of our thoughts-forever-in-progress -- it's crazy, it's good; it's crazy good. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message

This episode is perhaps as raw as we can get. The beginning is out for the world to witness — and I can’t be any more excited to start this journey with everyone. It is going to be a ‘moving’ ride, so grab on to something, for we will be talking and taking on anything and everything that comes to mind. This is mine, yours, theirs — this is our Thoughts In Progress. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nia-alexandria-agustin/message
