87. Burnt Out + Lit Up
11/03/21 • 29 min
I ride roller-coasters all the time without visiting amusement parks...
Yeah, I'm talking about my emotions.
In any given day, I can go from HAPPY JOY JOY to WTF WORLD to *heavy crying*.
And the last few months, it's felt a little more challenging to get to my usual "Marie Joy" if I'm being totally honest.
But I think that's the most important thing, that we be honest and also normalize being a human.
As a human, we get the opportunity to experience a wide variety of emotions. The full spectrum if you will.
And I think that's a beautiful thing! Even if some of the emotions and experiences on that scale are downright painful and uncomfortable as hell.
So I rode the roller-coaster today and as I was about to have a nap in an attempt to feel better, a little voice said, "it's burn out. You're experiencing burn out."
And I felt so at peace even in the admitting of that.
Today's episode is an honest conversation about burnout, what to do about it and my favourite "light up" list practice!
If you resonate at all with what I share, reach out. It helps us all feel less alone in our experiences.
ps - Leave a Review, Save, Download + Share this episode if it speaks to you! That's how we get the podcast (fun, free conversations about intentional living) out to more beautiful women just like you.
pps - You're amazing. Yeah, you. <3

86. Feeling ANGRY? Tips For Moving Through It
There's a lot of pissed-off-ness going on in the world right now.
The storm is raging inside many people's hearts.
But anger gets a bad rep.
Sometimes life doesn't go the way we thought it would and we get upset when that happens.
Sometimes, unjust things happen and we feel outraged at the experience.
Sometimes we make choices that we didn't feel were really a choice (even though they were) that cause us to abandon our truth in an attempt to please the "other", and we're left with resentment.
When we feel angry and don't have healthy ways of expressing ourselves, we bottle it up and then explode.
Anger is a healthy emotion that we get to feel as part of the human experience.
It's what we DO with our anger that makes all the difference.
You have to feel it to heal it, my friend.
(and in this episode, I guide you through an inner child exercise where we release our anger and reframe the stories in our mind).
And the best (also slightly annoying) part? We can choose to feel our anger and release it, or we can choose to bottle it up and burn from the inside out.
But the choice is ours to make.
Tune in for some helpful tools you can use to process your anger and reframe the stories in your mind. And then let me know on social if you resonate! I'd love to know what you want to hear about next on the podcast! My DMs are always open for suggestions!

88. Baking Cakes with Brandon Penner
Do you have deep chats with your spouse over coffee?
Brandon and I were chatting about the new "Meta" name Facebook recently revealed and it led to a full blown conversation about the difference between creating and consuming.
The person who gets to bake cakes all day has a completely different experience than the person who eats cakes all day long.
One allows you to express yourself.
The other can make you sick.
Consuming as much screen time as we do is literally making us sick.
The joy is found in the creating, not in the consuming.
The process is where we truly feel alive, not the outcome.
Tune in for our fun coffee chat that ended up as a discussion on how to find fulfillment in your life.
