In today’s solo episode, join me as I open up about experiencing my first panic attack, a terrifying moment that left me feeling completely vulnerable. I walk you through the intense buildup of stress from work, personal life, and underlying health anxieties that led to this overwhelming experience. Ignoring my body’s warning signs and pushing through the stress ultimately brought me to this breaking point, forcing me to reassess how I approach my mental health.
I share my journey of recovery, exploring different methods to manage stress, including hypnotherapy, which has been incredibly impactful for me. I also emphasize the importance of being mindful of our mental well-being and avoiding the normalization of anxiety and overwhelm, especially for women. Through this episode, I hope to inspire you to prioritize your mental health and find healthier ways to cope with life’s pressures.

In today’s solo episode, join me as I share my journey of redefining femininity by balancing both feminine and masculine energies within myself. I talk about moving away from societal norms and focusing on my true self. Inspired by the book "The Wild Feminine" by Tammy Lynn Kent, I am learning to lean into releasing emotions and reconnecting with my body. Together, let’s work on cultivating feminine energy into our lives to avoid exhaustion from living in a masculine-driven way, and to embrace our pleasure, creativity, and self-care.
