**by the way...

stay tuned for a complete podcast revamp.

big things are coming...**

oh golly gee what a time it's been

weeks of ongoing challenges...

i feel like i'm truly drowning in it all.

i've experienced the greatest burnout I've ever known and this feels like such a profound death.

everything, and i mean everything, i previously knew has dissolved and it feels so interesting to show up BEFORE I resurface from the depths...

to speak directly from the prolonged darkness BEFORE i feel the light again...

this is it.

the raw shit.

the real shit.

the `oh god is this gonna end?!' type of shit.

no sugar coating here...

life gets tough sometimes

and this is it.

stay tuned for the next ep whenever i end up resurfacing...

We've all experienced the hustle culture; the 'work so hard to get what you want' lifestyle; the overwhelming stress and then the burnout that follows. Hard work is so normalized these days that so many people lose themselves in the stress and aren't able to find their way out.

What if life didn't need to be so hard!? What if you actually got to work LESS to receive MORE of what you desire?

Well, I'm so excited to tell you that you CAN! You CAN live a life of ease, rest, and flow and receive everything you've ever wanted. You CAN live the life you desire without the burnout and overwhelming stress. You CAN learn to be grateful for exactly where you are right here and now, without needing to reach the next goal.

It all starts with your mindset. A shift in your mindset along with some simple intentional actions, and you can truly make this life your reality.

Don't just passively listen to this episode!! TAKE ACTION!! Start making intentional space for rest, start shifting your mindset towards yourself and your work, and start being gentle with where you are and what you are doing. And be open to receiving all the magic that is waiting for you once you start adopting these changes.

I am so excited for you.

I am so proud of you.

Infinite loves

4ever n more

You are going to die.

It's no surprise.

But our society has such a harmful relationship with the inevitable experience of dying!

Many dark connotations and feelings, such as grief, anxiety, deep pain, and fear, surround death. Why are we so avoidant of accepting something that is so undeniably a part of life?? Every living being experiences death, yet we spend most of our time pretending this isn't true.

What would happen if we changed the narrative and allowed ourselves to view death as a necessary transitioning of the spirit from physical reality?

What about reminding ourselves that we will die to remember to live fully while we have the opportunity?

What if we started having more conversations about death in order to adapt our awareness into a more accepting and peaceful one instead of something so dark and filled with fear?

After experiencing the death of her childhood dog, Rain felt called to start the conversation about death and how she thinks about it. In this episode, she talks about her relationship with death, how we can accept the end of others with more peace instead of just pain, and how to shift our mindsets from fear of the inevitable to awareness of the journey.

We have the power to shift our awareness to allow death to embody more light. Some cultures have been doing it for ages; maybe it's time for us to do the same. Death is inevitable. Let us stop fearing the inevitable.

Thank you for showing up for such a complex topic to converse about.

Love to you all.

Keep on living every moment you have to live.

Life is impermanent, which makes it that much more sacred.

xoxo

People pleasing is a habit that many people in today's world have. It involves putting others' needs before our own in order to keep those around us happy. Although it is done with good intentions, as people pleasers usually just want people to feel good, it often comes at the cost of your own wellbeing.

Some signs of people pleasing include agreeing with whoever is in front of you, apologising for things that aren't your fault, not being able to say no, changing your personality depending on who's around you, and basing your worth on how others think of you.

As someone who has spent a lot of time people pleasing and dealt with the negative personal impacts, I have learned that we have the ability to choose ourselves. This doesn't mean that you can't bring people good energy, spread love, and help others, but it is a practice of doing these things while making sure our OWN needs are being met.

Too often people lose themselves in the journey of satisfying others. We can't show up as a true source of light in this world unless we are attending to our own internal needs too. This means being aware of what we desire, setting boundaries that keep our energy safe, and letting go of people who aren't willing to respect our boundaries.

The journey of letting go of people pleasing habits is a difficult but very empowering journey. It feels hard to set boundaries with the people we love because it may feel scary or feel like we are going to hurt them. But once it is done, we realise that we have the power and choice to protect our own energy and that is one of the most vital skills we can have along our growth journeys.

An important practice of choosing yourself:

Set boundaries-

Communicate your needs in a controlled and neutral way and decide what action you will to take if your needs can't be met.

Example boundary template: "Your actions affect me in this way and I need to make the choice to choose myself if you can't alter your actions."

Give people the choice but set the boundary and say if this doesn't improve and if you can't respect my boundary than I will need to remove myself from this situation.

Not everyone has to agree with you in this world., not everyone is going to like you, not everyone is going to respect your boundaries, and that's okay. Because as long as we choose ourselves, we can prevail through our journeys of light and love, and align with the people who do the same.

I believe in you all through this scary and challenging but empowering growth journey of choosing yourself.

Much love forever n ever

xoxo

Do you have a lot of free time in your life? Are you confused as to where all your extra time goes? Do you think you fill up a lot of time with mindless activities? Trust me, we've all been there.

In this episode, a recording from fall 2020, young Rain (Morgan ;)) takes us on her journey of how she realised that she was filling all her time with things she didn't truly enjoy. She then shares her own personal story on how she shifted her life from not having a single true hobby to exploring and aligning with a number of rewarding free time activities, all in the span of one year.

Her self awareness and growth can be a point of inspiration for anyone interested in altering how they spend their time! We all have the power to take a step back, self-reflect, and start moving in a more intentional direction.

While listening to her journey you can reflect on your own life and think about what in your day to day is just a 'time filler' and what is actually an activity that you enjoy doing during your free time. The time fillers and hobbies referred to in the episode are listed down below.
