Episode 3: My Quarantine Thoughts/Feelings and Friendship

31m · Fail Into It · 28 Dec 15:36

I have decided that the first 10 episodes that I release of my podcast will be solo episodes where I cover topics that are currently top of mind for me. I committed to recording every day (or close to) that I am on quarantine to continue to hone my skills and practice this new craft.

Please note that there are a few interruptions throughout this episode from my adorable Havapoo puppy, Peanut. He has taken to interrupting me during conference calls, podcast recordings, etc. throughout this new normal.

In this episode, I talk about my experience with my 2nd quarantine of 2020, what I promised myself to accomplish during this quarantine period, and why I think this has happened (because I do not believe in coincidences). I go on a quick rant about the concept of creating vs. consuming, specifically in regards to social media content. I also spend some time talking about my current habits, things I hope to change, and what is to be learned during my time "off."

During the second half of this podcast I talk about my friendships throughout my young life and now in my adult life. I talk about how I have learned from my "failed" friendships and am now beyond grateful for the people that I have manifested to be a part of my circle.

Key learnings:

We accept the love we think we deserve (which I believe is a quote from the book Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky)
If something is hard, ask yourself the question "Is this right?"

To my friends, thank you. Thank you for being you. Thank you for being here for me. I am incredibly grateful.

Episode 10: I'm Back From My Spiritual Awakening

Hi, hello, I am back! In this episode, I give a brief overview of where I've been for the past 7 months or so. I cover a plethora of topics including, but not limited to extraterrestrials, my experience with an existential crisis when I realized I was "awakening," how I navigated this part of my journey, and some advice I have for those who may resonate with what I am saying in this episode.

My spiritual awakening is definitely not over, but I'm deep enough in that I feel like my feet are finally under me again and I'm ready to share.

Thank you to those of you who have been here for me during this very bizarre time! Growing up, having these realizations, and reestablishing myself is not the most graceful path, but it's beautiful nonetheless.

Episode 9: It's All About Perspective

TRIGGER WARNING: There are references to over-exercising, exercise addiction, and body dysmorphia.

SPOILER ALERT: I speak about the Disney Pixar movie "Soul" and disclose some information about the plotline.

In this particular solo episode, I turned on the microphone when I was feeling very low, confused, and down. The intention of this podcast was to "talk it out" with me and see if I would be able to figure out the core of my issues. The underlying theme of this episode is me speaking on how I am in the process of figuring out my purpose, who I am, and what I am "supposed" to be doing with my life right now.

I have been talking a lot about how I have been trying to practice flowing through life instead of planning through life. In this episode, I come to the realization that I have fallen back into the trap of planning once again.

I mention my friend, CJ Finley, and his podcast, Thrive on Life! I highly recommend you check him out on Instagram @cj.finley and take a listen to his podcast if you feel called to.

There are a lot of golden nuggets in this episode that I needed to hear so I thought someone else might need to as well.

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to my podcast! I truly appreciate you being here on this journey with me. If you are interested in connecting with me further, you can find me on Instagram @genevieve.fit or my blog peacelovegenevieve.com

Episode 8: The Judgment of Others is a Judgment of Self

In this solo episode, I talk about a topic that has been top of mind for me for a while and that topic is "judgment." This year I committed to myself that I would work on being less judgmental towards others and towards myself. If you're anything like me, you may have a tendency to get spun up about things that are not worth your time/energy. I talk about how to switch you can switch your perspective on judgment and work with your triggers to help you grow as an individual and, ultimately, become a better human.

Recently, I've been struggling with the question "what is my purpose?" I spend some time talking about a realization I had when I was contemplating this particular question.

Episode 7: Trust Yourself

In this solo episode, I talk about a topic that has been surfacing A LOT for the people in my life, as well as for myself. I talk about how I believe that due to the way that many of us have been raised and the society that we grew up in, we tend to rely on external validation and support to make decisions that we are perfectly capable of making on our own.

I talk about my first-hand experience with struggling with coming back to "trusting myself." I talk about how I spent a lot of time making choices because they were the choices that were going to appease those I care about most in my life. However, I concluded over time that I wasn't taking into consideration the repercussions my choices were having on the most important person in my life, me. Eventually, I explain how I am making choices for myself and my life from now on.
