Traffic Jam

In this episode with Adam, we talk about the changes that have happened in our lives throughout many different seasons. As we get older, it can be hard to let go of things that are comfortable, and Adam shared some really great advice about navigating that. Thank you for being supportive of me in creating this podcast! It has been such an awesome project. (ps. one of our traffic jams this week involves a lady with a shopping cart on the bus and missing the metro... enjoy)xoxo,Kam

Hi friends! One of my reasons for starting this podcast was to create a personal journal, so this episode is one I recorded to document my dance life up to this point in my life. Dance was my first passion, and still is one of the many things I love most in life. Dancing makes me less stressed, puts a smile on my face, and makes me feel most like myself. In this episode you'll hear about how I discovered dance was for me, how I was trained, how I keep dancing, and life lessons I've learned from the sport. Enjoy!xoxo,KamInstagram: @trafficjampodcast

In today's episode, Maggie and I talk about mindfulness--something that everyone can practice to improve their wellbeing. Maggie is a yoga instructor and emphasizes that yoga and mindfulness are for everyone. I recently published an episode about the basics of yoga, and I wanted to dive deeper with Maggie on some more specific topics: breath, grounding, and meditation. Enjoy the episode!xoxo,KamResources: -Insight Timer App (app for meditation)-@yogabymaggie (Maggie's yoga Instagram)-@trafficjampodcast (Traffic Jam podcast Instagram)

Burnout is something that a LOT of people experience in their life, including me! In this episode, I talk about what burnout is, what causes stress, and what we can do to get out of the burnout/stress cycle. I recently finished the book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle, so I talk about this book and what I learned from it. One thing you can do right now to help yourself is BREATHE DEEP. Try it now! Then enjoy the episode :) xoxo,Kam Instagram: @trafficjampodcast

In my hardest season of life, I found yoga and it was exactly what I needed! I wanted to put together an episode with a seasoned yoga teacher (Whitney) to provide an introduction of yoga to those who might be unfamiliar with it. In this episode, Whitney shares the basics of yoga practice, different variations of yoga,  chakras, and why yoga is for everyone. Give it a shot... you might love it ;)xoxo, KamInstagram: @trafficjampodcast

Enjoy!xoxo,KamInstagram: @trafficjampodcast

In the last year, I have learned so much more about women's health, my body, balancing my hormones, and menstrual cycles. I think it is so cool and empowering to know these things about your own health, and there is so much to learn! In today's episode, I talk about my experience on birth control, what the cycle phases are, and ways you can track your cycle to get more in sync with your body. Hope you enjoy!xoxo, KamResources mentioned: Beyond the Pill book, Taking Charge of Your Fertility book, @themaddiemiles Instagram page or Peace Love Hormones podcastMy Instagram: @trafficjampodcast

Finding ways to balance work and life is an ongoing journey, but there are things you can do to make it a little easier along the way.  Isa and I share our experiences adjusting to full time work after graduating college, and things that have helped us feel like ourselves while having adult jobs. Think of work as your part time job, and LIFE as your full time job! xoxo , Kam Find me on Instagram @trafficjampodcast 

Through this really tough season of life, I have learned that seeing change in myself doesn't have to be a scary thing. It is okay to look back and see different versions of yourself and how you've grown! In this episode, we talk about what moving forward to new seasons looks like, learning to be okay with change, and that you aren't the only one reminiscing what life used to look like. Look forward with faith! Good things are coming! xoxo, KamInstagram: @trafficjampodcast

Today's episode is a combination of life updates, talking about being friendly, and trying to have more fun. In life, it is easy to forget the good things that are happening around you. To remember, smile at someone you pass on the sidewalk, put an extra cart away, or give the guy selling water bottles an extra dollar. And don't wait too long to sing out loud in your car!Instagram: @trafficjampodcast
