➡ Carrie & Big were engaging in a classic cycle where one partner has anxious attachment, and the other has avoidant attachment. These two attachment styles are drawn to one another in a way that is both intoxicating and toxic.

I'm also chatting about how to survive the holidays (from a therapist-in-training!) and what I talk to my clients about during this season. Plus, is Tom Schwartz a narcissist?

We all have coping mechanisms (raise your hand if you're avoidant like me!) that make pain feel easier. We can numb ourselves from the pain, or we can choose to lean into it. I have some thoughts, I hope it helps you.

Today I talk to Laina about her exact formula for manifestation (3 steps), synchronicities and what they mean, what it looks like when we aren't trusting the universe (hint hint - control and anxiety), and more.

How do we cultivate a sense of optimism even during difficult times? What narratives are playing out in our minds that are being reflected in our outer world, and how can we shift that narrative to one that is lined with hope and positivity? Where are we victimizing ourselves? Our reality is a reflection of what's going on in our minds - a reflection of our beliefs about how the world works. If you're looking for jerks, you'll see them everywhere. If you're looking for love, you'll see it everywhere. I wrote a blog post to accompany this episode here. Listen to Chill Vibes on Spotify

Today marks about 2 months of no alcohol (about 2 months longer than i've ever gone). It's an update on my first "sober date", learning to lean into discomfort that was usually eased with alcohol, and trying not to worry too much about how people might label me. After almost 2 full months, I am truly living a completely different life. Drinking alcohol is so normalized in our society, that if we even think about quitting we get labeled (or label ourselves) with a problem. I'm empowering you to question whether you want alcohol in your life, not whether you need alcohol in your life. It is YOUR life. Make it as fulfilling, as rich, as beautiful, and present, and as conscious as you possibly can. - - Episode 6 - this is your life!! empower yourself to make decisions that are best for you! - revisiting the normalization of drinking alcohol in society and family - leaning into discomfort - the thing I was avoiding by drinking - and feeling life fully.
