...I can buy myself flowers is a song I never thought I would care for, mainly because of the artist who sings it, but I judged too quickly. I didn't give her enough credit. The song sings to the soul of so many of us. As does great music overall. A song, a tune, ...
Judgement is inevitable when you do this
With the advent of social media, blogs, and other mediums that allow you to broadcast your personal brand at the click of a button, brings on another beast. Judgement. Actors and famous people have had to deal with the issue of the media and putting out their image in tabloids for decades now. In that ...
Acceptance, if only it were so simple
Listen to our latest podcast episode on practicing acceptance or read out blog post below. February and March has been a tad frustrating for me because I injured my right hip/glute/back area from weight lifting (I think) or something clumsy - you never know with me. Unfortunately, not only was this painful physically, but emotionally ...
Moments of Mindfulness
It's easy to get lost in the day to day, but taking a moment, preferably more than one, is so necessary. Why you ask? A moment to reflect, discern what's going on within yourself, and determine what you need whether it be as simple as a glass of water, perhaps a nap, or a run ...
Unwind, unwind and unwind some more
When you've had a day, a week, a month, and even a year (already), take a moment. A moment to unwind. A moment for you. A moment to sit back, relax, and take it easy. Have you ever noticed that a song, or even just a lyric from a song, can change a mood? When ...

Telling your ‘inner critic’ to chill
Listen to our podcast episode or read the post below, your choice. Have you ever doubted yourself? Had imposter syndrome? Or just wondered, can I do this? I'm pretty sure at one point (or many points) in time, we all have. No one is confident one hundred percent of the time, and that is perfectly ...
Winter Cheer
Winter can be hard with the short days and weeks that sometimes feel like months. BUT sometimes the right playlist can turn our mood into something a bit more optimistic. So, forget the groundhog, and the 6 more weeks of winter. Forget that the sun doesn't come up until 7, or that it gets dark ...
Work-Life Balance or Harmony?
I had always thought work-life "balance" was the key to happiness, but recently came upon the term work-life harmony, and am now revisiting the right way to approach life - for me. According to a Forbes article, "Work-life harmony is about you. It’s about your energy and where you invest it to make your life ...
New Year, New Playlist
Everyone needs a new playlist to start the year off right? It's not "new year, new me" it's "new year, new whatever YOU want" because it's your year. It's not about the perfect resolution or need to be perfect at all. Because it's about progress, not perfection. This playlist is about kicking the year off in ...
