That Shit Cray! - My Craziest Travel Stories

15 months off of Instagram and TikTok after tripling my follower count and going viral multiple times. I was just at the beginning of my social media success and I decided to delete it all! Here I’m sharing … the journey of going viral, why I deleted my accounts, battling anxiety, judgement, and insecurities, how to use social media without letting it consume you, if I’ll ever return, and a message from my teacher that changed my life with the way I view social media! 

Let’s journey the world of social media baby!

In the process of preparing for this yoga retreat I asked myself what is most message is most important? What is it that I am really here to do? What things are non-negotiable? What is the content and structure that I am sharing?

It sounds like a lot to figure out, but actually it was clear, simple, and easy. No confusion. No hard brain work required.

The most important part of teaching or sharing … YOU MUST HAVE YOUR OWN PRACTICE! You should be an embodiment of what you are sharing. This way, there is no conflict with what you are offering. No confusion because you are sharing a part of your own Life.

I start off with a disclaimer at the beginning of the retreat. A set of clear intentions and values. It’s a bit bold. It’s straightforward, but it honest. We don’t have much time here on this planet. Life goes by quickly. I don’t want to waste anyone’s time!

Never in a million years could I have imagined I would end up doing this. In fact, I always rolled my eyes at anything concerning yoga and spirituality. To be honest, modern day yoga is weird!

With more than 700 hours in formal yoga teacher training and accreditation on paper I still vowed to never teach yoga. It still seemed like a cringe world of hierarchy, flexibility, crazy hippies, tight yoga clothes, the reciting of ancient texts, spiritual sex parties, amongst a whole bunch of other stuff.  I was just curious to know it to its depths and try to get to the root of what it actually was and if it was actually as useful as people made it out to be. What is this yoga business really all about? And what I found led me here ….

Hey my loves! Feeling so much of an  out pouring of energy directed towards the podcast lately! No force, no effort, no push, just a natural flow to share! Feels so good to be back to spend time with my podcast family with a sincere and honest message … STOP TRYING TO FIX YOURSELF, please! It’s a bit forward and blunt. I’m just the messenger.

yep, I know how radical and even arrogant that may sound, just hear me out though! let’s chit chat a little about our obsession with working on ourselves and explore why we maybe don’t have to!

I would love to hear from you! What is your experience with seeking or “getting better”. Does it seem realistic to just stop? I’m sooooo curious to hear you!

Hey my loves! Okay, so imagine being in an absolute paradise and still experiencing deep sadness and anger and being so confused because you believed that being on vacation, having more money, finding love, etc was the answer to happiness! 

Let’s chit chat about my experience on dealing with tough emotions and how I find peace within no matter where I am or what I have. It’s still a journey for me, but I feel content enough to share my story and the tools I use that help me!

For thousands of years monks have followed the same daily routine. Why? Why do they wake up at 4am? Honestly, why does anyone even wake up earlier than 9am? How important is a daily routine and do we actually even need one to begin with? I followed some advice from the morning routine of Buddhist monks and here is what happened!

Let’s be real, most of us have spent a lot of our time gossiping or discussing our likes and dislikes of others. But why? What makes us judge others and how do we stop it?

During my time in Tanzania, in a little village called Makunduchi I remembered the knowingness of non-judgement and perspective.

May we grant others the compassion to express their perspectives with non-judgement. May we be able to accept each other. May we be able to see from each others perspectives. May we be able to acknowledge that our own perspectives are only ours.
