We're back with a solo episode on Relationship OCD. In this episode, I talk about a common experience many with ROCD may experience: romanticizing the past - whether that's the beginning of your current relationship, past relationships, or past experiences, including being single. I explore how this pattern can show up in the context of Relationship OCD. I also touch on the anxiety, doubt, shamem and guilt that can arise from these thoughts and experiences. If you can relate to feeling the need to find meaning in every thought and feeling, you are not alone.As always, resonating to this episode does not necessarily mean you live with OCD. These thoughts can show up for a variety of reasons.As a reminder, I created a Spotify playlist with ROCD-focused episodes.

This Pisces daily reading reveals where fantasy is clouding truth.Your guides bring clarity, grounding, and emotional truth today.
After a breakup, it's amazing how quickly your brain can erase everything that wasn't working in the relationship. The arguments, the incompatibilities, the moments you questioned whether they were really right for you suddenly disappear, and all you can think is, "I lost the love of my life." If you've found yourself obsessing over why your ex didn't choose you while barely considering whether you would actually choose them today, this episode will change the way you think about your breakup. I'll walk you through three powerful questions I use with my coaching clients to help them stop idealizing their ex, reconnect with their own standards, and shift from feeling rejected to making intentional choices about the kind of relationship they actually want. And if part of you still hopes your ex comes back, we'll also explore why getting clear on what would need to change before you ever considered reconciliation can completely transform the way you move through heartbreak. This episode is a simple exercise with the power to change how you see your past—and your future. Free consultation call with Dorothy: www.lifecoachdorothy.com
Lesley Wolff on Hollywood Casting, Comedy & Acting Careers In this episode of Drinking During Business Hours, Sarah Halstead and Rich Chassler sit down with casting director, producer, teacher, comedian, and actor Lesley Wolff for a fast, funny, insider-heavy conversation about casting, stand-up, commercials, creative survival, and how the entertainment business really works. The episode starts over a Michigan rosé and quickly turns into a candid, hilarious talk about commercial auditions, stage moms, acting insecurity, networking, comedy culture, and why visibility can matter as much as talent in Hollywood. Lesley also opens up about her long career developing comedy talent, her Fresh Faces workshop philosophy, and her frustration with gatekeeping in entertainment. One of the most interesting parts of the episode is her discussion of AI, digital casting, and the future of the business — especially how creators, actors, and comedians may need to adapt to a much more self-generated, tech-driven industry. Funny, brutally honest, and packed with useful perspective, this episode is a great listen for comics, actors, casting nerds, and anyone trying to make a living in entertainment. Guest Info Lesley Wolff is a casting director, actress, comedy mentor, and founder of the Fresh Faces Stand-Up Comedy Workshop. Public profiles describe her as a longtime talent developer and "Comic Fluffer," with acting credits including Weeds, The George Lopez Show / Lopez, No Way Jose, and Guest House, plus work in digital, TV, film, and comedy development. Her background also includes TV writing, comedy production, and talent development across multiple lanes of entertainment. VoyageLA notes that she wrote for ABC's Recess and Sweet Valley High, produced comedy showcases featuring major names, and built Wolff Casting as a boutique casting company with a strong digital and comedy focus.

Romanticizing alcohol can be one of the most confusing parts of sobriety because logically, you know what alcohol did to you, but your brain still makes it sound appealing. When that happens, your brain usually isn't remembering the full drinking experience — it's remembering the relief, the state change, and the moment before the consequences showed up. That doesn't mean you secretly want to ruin your life or that you don't know better; it means your brain is retrieving an edited version of the story. When stress, boredom, loneliness, resentment, overwhelm, social pressure, or exhaustion show up, your brain may pull up alcohol as an old solution until you build more reliable ways to respond to those feelings. This episode is about why we romanticize drinking and how to prepare yourself for these thoughts so they don't trick you back into the cycle.

Do you wonder if you'll ever have fun without alcohol? Despite all the reasons you want to stop drinking, a lot of us find ourselves looking back at vacations, girls' weekends, summer nights, and celebrations thinking alcohol was what made them special. In this conversation, I sat down with sobriety coach, podcast host, and longtime recovery advocate Angela Pugh to talk about one of the biggest obstacles women face when they want to drink less: romanticizing alcohol while forgetting everything that came with it. We talk about why your brain loves to remember the highlights, how fear keeps you focused on what you'll lose, and how to start getting excited about everything you'll gain instead.

You've seen the aesthetic — the linen aprons, the cottagecore feeds, the slow-morning coffee rituals on Instagram. But what does romanticizing your life actually mean when real life is messy, busy, and full? In this episode, Jessica and Kelly strip the concept down to its honest core: noticing what's already there, claiming it, and refusing to let it slip past you on autopilot. Jessica opens with the story of Athlete Jessica — the competitive, hard-working girl she was growing up — who quietly faded somewhere around 2012 and who she's been getting back, one Orange Theory treadmill push at a time. Kelly digs into the ancient roots of this idea (and a book obsession that led to a surprisingly joyful laundry practice). Together they explore how the real practice isn't about pretty things — it's about orientation, attention, and deciding your ordinary life is worth paying attention to. What We Cover Why romanticizing your life has nothing to do with aesthetics — and everything to do with attention Jessica's story of losing (and reclaiming) her athlete identity over more than a decade The difference between living intentionally and just performing your life Kelly's post-book laundry revelation and what "mastery in everyday life" actually looks like Research from Professor Fred Bryant at Loyola on savoring as a learnable, wellbeing-linked skill Why summer is the perfect season to start a noticing practice How family dinners, gym rituals, and morning coffee can be radical acts of presence Brighter Moves This Week From Jessica — The Noticing Practice: Once a day, pause and notice one specific, ordinary thing. Not abstract gratitude — something concrete. The color of something. The sound of something. The way something feels. Hold it for 10 seconds. That's the whole practice. From Kelly — The Single-Tasking Challenge: Pick one activity this week — making coffee, eating lunch, driving somewhere — and do it with zero competing input. No TV, no podcast, no screen. Just the activity. Notice what surfaces when there's nothing else competing for your attention.

Do you ever find yourself planning for the future and imagining how perfect it's going to be? In this Coaching Hotline episode, I answer two listener questions about fantasies and expectations. I explore why romanticizing the future can take you out of the present and why trying to control your thoughts about someone else only makes you feel more out of control. I break down how our brains trick us into conflating circumstances and thoughts, showing why happiness and fulfillment are created by the thoughts you are having now, not by money, experiences, or other people. You'll hear why striving to reject negative emotions or desires only gives them power, and why chasing validation from others is ultimately about how you relate to yourself.

In this episode, Jean-Martin and Chris sit down with Jessica Paige of Adama Farm to discuss her journey from university student to first-generation regenerative farmer and influencer. Jessica explores the importance of "romanticizing" farm life, explaining how finding beauty in the intensive labor makes the work more enjoyable and sustainable, and how sharing this beauty online can inspire new young people to get into farming. She reflects on her formative apprenticeship at Frith Farm, her spiritual awakening through nature, and the empowerment of leading an all-female crew. The conversation covers the practicalities of starting a farm, from land acquisition to navigating the "year two and three" hurdles of infrastructure and irrigation. Ultimately, she highlights how a small-scale farm can become a vibrant community hub through farm-to-table dinners and shared connection to the land.

Hi my loves
Art-making isn't a vibe. It's a practice that can feel exhausting, confusing, and sometimes flat-out miserable, yet we still wake up wanting to go back. We sit with a blunt question that every working artist eventually faces: what is making art giving us even when it doesn't feel good?We start by de-romanticizing the work through Hugo Winder-Lind's reminder that painting doesn't always feel good, especially now that artists are expected to be multi-faceted creators. From there we get honest about envy, creative cycles, and the kindness we owe other artists when they're in the ditch. We also call out the social media highlight reel, the edited two minutes that hides the seven hours of staring, failing, quitting, and starting again.Then we move into what the studio actually gives back. Mark Bradford frames labor as a way to slow down until you can hear yourself think and reach the quieter voice with the better idea. Sheila Hicks adds the bigger frame: discovery is part of being alive, so hang in there because you never know what the next discovery might be. Along the way we talk logistics, perfectionism, routines that prime the pump, excluding distractions so actions match goals, and Noel W. Anderson shares why the studio nourishes us in ways we can't fully explain.If you've been stuck, burned out, or questioning why you keep doing this, hit play. Subscribe, share this with an artist friend, and leave a review, then tell us: what does your creative process give you when it's not giving you joy?Audio artist clips from:TimeStamps: https://www.instagram.com/time____stamp/Louisiana Channel: https://www.instagram.com/louisianachannel/Artists:Hugo Winder-Lind: https://www.instagram.com/hugowinderlind/Noel W.

In this episode, Meg explores the true definition of mysticism and how embracing a more enchanted, intentional way of living can gently regulate the nervous system. Through personal reflection and grounded insight, she shares how beauty, ritual, and connection to the unseen create a sense of safety in the body.

In this powerful season opener, Andrea shares a deeply personal story about financial dependence, single motherhood, and the night her credit cards were declined at a grocery store with two small children in tow. What felt like a private failure was actually something much bigger: the systemic reality known as the motherhood penalty.Backed by research and lived experience, this episode explores the documented financial cost women pay for caregiving, why the so-called “choice” to stay home isn't always a true choice, and how cultural narratives continue to romanticize economic dependence. ...EPISODE CHAPTERS(00:00) – The grocery store moment that changed everything(01:45) – The decision to stay home — and what it really cost(03:15) – Losing financial power and personal identity(04:20) – The research behind the motherhood penalty(05:10) – Why “choice” isn't always a real choice(05:55) – Romanticizing dependence vs. protecting freedom(06:00) – How to build and protect your economic power(06:50) – Your challenge: know your numbers and take one actionRESOURCES Goal Getters GuideTAG ANDREA ON INSTAGRAM@andreadlc_coachCONNECT WITH KANDULAKandula BlogsYoutubeInstagramLinkedIn. . .ABOUT ANDREA DE LA CERDAAndrea De La Cerda is a highly accomplished communications professional with over 25 years of experience in the fields of advertising, communications and marketing.

What happens when you stop looking for love and start finding yourself? In this episode, Jennifer sits down with author and New Hampshire transplant Abby Rosmarin in Concord, NH, to talk about the year that changed her life: 2023, the Year of Dating Herself.After a string of tumultuous relationships that left her gaslit, depleted, and sitting in a bathtub wondering how she got there, Abby made a radical decision — to spend an entire year intentionally single, intentionally present, and intentionally devoted to her own company. The result? A healing journey she never could have predicted, a book, and a relationship she never knew was possible.From solo concerts and dining alone for the first time to impulsive ear piercings and sunrise coffee dates by the lake, Abby shares the raw, funny, and deeply human story of what it looks like to truly date yourself — awkwardness, check-engine-light moments, and all. She and Jennifer also dive into the pressures women face around singlehood, the power of therapy and self-reflection, codependency and healing, and what it really means to show up for yourself before you can fully show up for anyone else.
The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 고향의 환상| Romanticizing Home: Two Months in Nigeria and What It Taught Me About Belonging — The One with Doc Ayomide | Episode 39 (2025)In a moment where diaspora conversations often swing between "I miss home" and "I'm never going back," what happens when you actually spend two months living—not visiting—in the place you left behind?This episode brings Doc Ayomide back to us on The More Siby podcast for an unfiltered conversation about my recent two-month stay in Nigeria. What started as a trip home became a masterclass in adaptation, comparison, and the uncomfortable work of holding two realities at once. We explore why we romanticize past lives from a distance, the classism we have been trained not to notice, and how obtaining a simple passport became a months-long ordeal that cost nearly a million naira and still has not been fully resolved.We also talk domestic staff, Lagos airport chaos, the five-year-old who is picking up "ọ" faster than expected, and why something about Nigeria's resilience makes American "breaking news" feel a little dramatic. Three weeks, we decided, is probably the sweet spot. Two months will teach you things you did not ask to learn. This episode will not give you closure. But if you have ever been caught between loving a place and being exhausted by it, between the version of home that lives in your chest and the one that charges you 250k for a letter, you will find company here.PS: Shout out to Nigerian teachers who reminded us what patient, collectivist education actually looks like. And to the government officers charging 250k for letters, we see you, and we are tired. Available now on all major podcast platforms.
Our Reimagined Life: Empowering Me, You, and Us Seeking Happiness and Self Worth
What if romanticizing your life isn't about aesthetics… but alignment? With Valentine's Day right around the corner, there's so much conversation about loving others. But what if this season is an invitation to love ourselves — not in a selfish way, but in a present, intentional, self-honoring way? In this episode, I share how romanticizing our lives moves us out of survival mode and back into alignment with our true self. We talk about: Turning ordinary mornings into special moments Journaling in a way that builds identity, not pressure The nervous system effects of chronic busyness Self-trust as the deepest form of romance Why love feels different when it comes from overflow Rest, Intuition and more… Romanticizing your life isn't just about candles and clothing (though those are nice). It's about choosing alignment over autopilot. If you've felt like something is unfinished — not because your life is bad, but because you sense there's more — this episode will speak directly to you. And if you're ready to go deeper into learning how to achieve your dreams and find purpose in your life, join me in the upcoming Goals Reimagined Masterclass.

We are a world that devours stories. Most people tune in every night to be taken in by the stories others are living or they have created, and the vast majority of these stories are centered about a grand cause. The action and adventure movies and dramas we love so often showcase someone encountering a cause and devoting themselves to it. A cause. Something bigger than themselves that involves protecting or supporting the welfare of something or someone else. Finding and having a cause is often the most profound aspect of a life well lived. But we don't seem to grasp how finding a cause works. We tend to think of learning and training and preparing, so that we can commit to something truly big and worthy. A grand purpose. A cause. My guest today argues, in the most compassionate way possible, we have it backwards, and that the greatest people ever known simply committed to something they believed in, and the journey within it is what made them great. It crafted and honed them. The challenge and trials and triumphs along the way is what refined them. Then the charge is not to commit to preparation, but to commit now and let the commitment prepare you along the way. Lynne Twist is a recognized global visionary and legendary humanitarian. Lynne wowed the world with her first book, The Soul of Money, but I had her on my show for her book, Living a Committed Life: Finding Freedom and Fulfillment in a Purpose Larger Than Yourself. Lynne's own story began when she heard about the The Hunger Project where their goal was to end world hunger, and knew she was supposed to devote her life to it. She spent a decade there and has influenced more people through more humanitarian efforts than nearly anyone. Lynne has been an advisor to the Desmond Tutu Foundation. The United Nations honored her with a “Woman of Distinction” award. From working with Mother Teresa in Calcutta to the refugee camps in Ethiopia and the threatened rainforests of the Amazon, Lynne's on-the-ground work has brought her a deep understanding of the social tapestry of the world and the historical landscape of the times we are living in. Over the past 45 years Lynne has worked with over 100,000 people in 50 countries in the arenas of fundraising with integrity, conscious philanthropy, strategic visioning and having a healthy relationship with money.

This is a quieter week and that feels deeply appropriate. Across many spiritual and faith traditions, this is a time of holy pause—a moment when outer striving softens and inner meaning comes forward.Rather than dramatic turning points, the sky invites integration:What has been learned this year?What is ready to be carried forward with greater maturity, honesty, and care?Tuesday, December 23: Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesThis is a tender, permeable alignment—beautiful, but not always clear.Venus in Sagittarius seeks truth, meaning, and heartfelt enthusiasm.Neptune in Pisces dissolves boundaries, blurs edges, and opens us to longing, devotion, and compassion.Notice where idealism slips into projection—or where longing replaces discernment.This can show up as:Romanticizing a path, a belief, or a relationshipFeeling disoriented about values or directionConfusing spiritual yearning with actual alignmentThis aspect also opens deep compassion, poetic sensitivity, and soulful listening—especially when we resist the urge to decide too quickly. Let your values be informed by both heart and grounded truth.Reflection Question:Where am I being invited to soften my certainty without abandoning my discernment?Wednesday, December 24: Venus enters Capricorn (until January 17)As Venus moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn, the tone of relating and valuing changes noticeably. Capricorn is the sign of commitment, integrity and long-term responsibilityHere, love becomes less about possibility and more about presence.Values are no longer theoretical—they want to be lived.This is not cold or restrictive energy; it is maturing energy.Venus in Capricorn asks:What do I truly stand for?What am I willing to tend over time?What relationships, projects, and devotions are worth the effort?Choose what you are willing to build—not just what inspires you.Reflection Question:What values am I ready to embody more fully as we enter the new year?Saturday, December 27: Mercury in Sagittarius trine Chiron in AriesThis is a quietly powerful aspect—especially for reflection, conversation, and integration.Mercury in Sagittarius speaks in big-picture language: truth, meaning, and perspective. Chiron in Aries holds wounds around identity, courage, and the right to exist as oneself.Their harmonious trine supports:Healing conversationsReframing old narratives about who you areSpeaking truths that restore confidence rather than inflame painThis is not about fixing wounds—it's about finding language that honors the journey. Words can become medicine here, especially when they arise from lived experience rather than theory. Let your story carry wisdom, not self-judgment.Reflection Question:What truth am I now able to speak about myself that once felt too tender or risky?This is not a week for pushing forward. It's a week for listening, tending, and integrating. Let faith—however you define it—be something you inhabit, not perform.Podcast poem: Daybreak by Galway KinnellSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Today's episode came to me as I was about to hop in the shower, and I started listening to a podcast about “romanticizing winter”. It's definitely not something I would have been intrigued by in the past, but I LOVED it. After listening, I thought “what if we romanticized our fitness journey?!”Like…I'm not a winter girlie at ALL (probably never will be), but something about softening into a season I usually resist made me think about softening into fitness, too. And no…not toxic positivity or pretending life is “perfect”. Think more intention, emotion, and calm to something that can feel so HARSH this time of year.I don't want December fitness to feel like pressure. I don't need the “push harder, grind harder” vibe right now, and neither do you. This season can be chaotic AF, and you don't need to bully yourself into hustling when your bandwidth just isn't there.This holiday season, you don't need more discipline. You need more connection, intention, and moments that feel GOOD!!Episode recap:Why “romanticizing your fitness” helps you soften pressure & stay consistent this seasonShifting from harsh motivation to calm & intentional energy to support your habitsThe role of emotion, beauty & reward in creating sustainable habit loopsHow soft structure reduces burnout + builds self-trust5 ways to romanticize your fitnessWhy small wins matter MOST right nowHow slowing down can actually move you forwardWhy intention > discipline during busy seasonsWhy every positive choice compounds right nowLinks/Resources: Trying Not to Care Podcast | Romanticizing Winter: How to Enjoy the Holiday Season and Love Your LifeEp. 219 | Overeating During the Holidays: How to Stop the “Screw-It” Spiral + Actually Break the CycleGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep and get the UFYF NewsletterListen to the Girls with Opinions PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with former healthcare leader turned multi seven figure mindset trainer and strategist Lin Yuan Su to pressure test a big claim. that up to 95% of success comes from mindset. Lin takes us inside the morning she broke down crying in her car in Canada, after years of doing “everything right” on paper. good education, respected job, security. She unpacks how fear, burnout and people pleasing can quietly run your life while you tell yourself you are just being responsible. Together, Charu and Lin dig into the Success Trifecta. mindset, strategy, action. They challenge privilege questions, talk honestly about money, motherhood, ambition and guilt, and get practical about how to shift your inner game without quitting your job overnight or spending big on coaching. If you are sitting in your own parked car wondering how you got here, this conversation gives you language, tools and permission to want more without burning your life down. About the guest: Lin Yuan Su is a former high achieving registered dietitian and healthcare leader who walked away from a secure career after years of quiet burnout. Today she is a mindset trainer and success strategist who helps entrepreneurs and professionals create what she calls enlightened success. wealth, time freedom and health that coexist instead of compete. Blending science based thinking, subconscious mindset work and practical strategy, Lin supports clients to move from fear driven overwork into calm, confident leadership in business and life. She is also a wife and mom, and brings a grounded perspective on ambition, family and what it really takes to build a life that feels aligned, not just impressive on paper. Key takeaways: Mindset is the driver, strategy is the vehicle. Lin insists that copying someone's business plan while keeping the same fearful, employee style thinking will often recreate burnout, not freedom. who you are being shapes what any strategy can do. Burnout can look “functional” from the outside. Years before that car breakdown, Lin was short tempered, exhausted and unmotivated at home, yet still performing at work. She now names those as clear burnout signs many high achievers normalize. You cannot afford to ignore your inner voice. Lin warns that staying misaligned out of fear can show up as chronic stress and even illness. She is not giving medical advice, but she stresses that emotional dis ease often becomes physical dis ease over time. Do not leap without a bridge. build one. Lin did not storm into her CEO's office to quit. She stayed, got coaching, shifted her energy, left on a high note and built a thoughtful transition instead of a crisis exit. Mindset work is not only for the wealthy. Coaching is powerful, but Lin is clear. the real investment is time, energy and willingness to study. Books, podcasts and free resources can start a real inner shift if you actually work with them. Manifestation is discipline, not magic. Lin shares client stories, like a restaurant owner who grew revenue 400 percent while cutting her hours to a third, and her own fertility journey after releasing deep emotional blocks. She frames these as examples of what aligned mindset plus consistent action can open up, not as guarantees. For women, harmony beats “work life balance.” Lin blocks non negotiable time for family, self and business and aims for flow instead of rigid balance. She urges women to check whether their ambition comes from fear and ego, or from heart and purpose. How to connect with Lin Yuan-Su: Listeners can connect with Lin Yuan Su here.
